Live In Harmony With One Another | 5.3.26

To download the sermon guide, click here. Romans 12:9-21 Observations from the Text Paul commands a shared mindset: live in harmony (v.16) Pride is a barrier: do not be haughty… never be wise in your own sight (v.16) Harmony includes action: associate with the lowly (v.16) Relationships will be hard: repay no one evil for evil… live peaceably… never avenge (vv.17–19) The goal: overcome evil with good (v.21) Core Teaching Connection Harmony is not primarily about agreement—it is about humility. Paul ties harmony directly to: Lowering ourselves Moving toward those unlike us Refusing superiority This mindset reflects Jesus, who: Lowered Himself Moved toward the overlooked Chose love over status Harmony flows from a humble, Jesus-abiding heart.

Engaging Conflict With Grace And Humility

Matthew 18:18–35 Purpose: Jesus teaches that forgiveness is not about keeping score, but about being transformed by the grace we’ve received—so we extend it to others, together with Him. Core Teaching Connection: Because we’ve been forgiven an immeasurable debt, we are called to extend that same grace. And Jesus reminds us (vv.18–20): We do not do this alone—we act with Him and under His authority. • When we bind, we resist and stop the spread of sin • When we loose, we release forgiveness and freedom This is not individual spirituality—it is shared, communal authority with Jesus. Where even two or three pursue reconciliation in His name, His presence and power are at work. So Jesus is not calling us to: • keep count • manage a minimum • or separate faith from relationships He calls us to a transformed life marked by: • Humility – My debt before God is immeasurable • Integrity – Receiving grace and extending it • Community (“We over Me”) – We walk in Jesus’ authority together We don’t just believe the gospel— we live it out together through forgiveness and restored relationships.

The Sword | 3.29.26

The Sword Mark 14:43–52 GOSPEL CONNECTION “He was despised and forsaken of men, A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. 4 Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted. 5But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him, And by His scourging we are healed. 6All of us like sheep have gone astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; But the LORD has caused the iniquity of us all To fall on Him.” Isaiah 53:3-6 APPLICATION What will you do now to prepare for times when your dedication to Jesus is tested at home, at work, or with friends and neighbors? MEMORY VERSE Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away because of Me this night, for it is written, ‘I WILL STRIKE DOWN THE SHEPHERD, AND THE SHEEP OF THE FLOCK SHALL BE SCATTERED.’” Matthew 26:31
