False Grace and Certain Judgment

One of the greatest dangers facing the church today is not outright atheism or open hostility to Christianity. It is a distorted version of Christianity that speaks often about grace but very little about holiness, repentance, obedience, or the fear of God. Dietrich Bonhoeffer famously called this “cheap grace.” Today we see forms of Christianity that want the benefits of Jesus without the lordship of Jesus. We see a version of faith that avoids hard truths because it fears offending people more than dishonoring God. Jude reminds us that the holiness of God matters. Truth matters. Doctrine matters. The way we live matters. Because false teaching is never merely intellectual, it is deeply spiritual and profoundly moral. What we believe about grace will shape the kind of disciples we become.

Praying as Christ Taught Us: The Prayer of Faith

As we come to the end of this sermon series on the Lord’s Prayer, we are looking at the very last word of the prayer—“Amen.” What does it mean for us to say Amen at the end of a prayer? It is not just the end of a prayer; it is the expression of faith. In this verse, the Apostle Paul pulls back the curtain and shows us what is really happening when we say that word. As we conclude this series, we’re going to see that saying “Amen” is not ending our prayer—it is how we anchor our prayer in Christ.

Praying as Christ Taught Us: Soli Deo Gloria

In this sermon series, we have learned that when Jesus teaches us to pray in Matthew 6, He doesn’t start with our needs—He starts with God: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.” Before prayer ever changes our circumstances, it is meant to reorient our hearts toward the glory of God. As we come to the end of the Lord’s Prayer, we see where all of this has been heading. After eleven chapters of deep theology in his letter to the church in Rome, the apostle Paul doesn’t conclude with a neat summary—he explodes in worship. The final word of prayer is praise, and the reason is simple: all true prayer ends where it began—with the glory of God alone.

Praying as Christ Taught Us: Deliver Us From Evil

We come once again to the final petition of the Lord’s Prayer, where Jesus teaches us to seek God’s ongoing protection and preservation. In the second half of this petition, we do not find a polite closing line, but a desperate plea. Jesus is teaching us something essential: The Christian life is lived in the middle of a battle. We are not simply asking God to make life easier. We are asking Him to rescue us from a real and active enemy. How do we respond to this petition? How does God answer this prayer?

Praying as Christ Taught Us: Lead Us Not into Temptation

In this series, we have seen how the Lord’s Prayer shapes every aspect of the Christian life: our worship, our dependence, and our repentance. Now we turn to the final petitions, where Jesus teaches us to seek God’s ongoing protection and preservation. In this next petition, “Lead us not into temptation,” we are reminded that the Christian life is not lived in our own strength, but in daily reliance on the faithfulness of our God. This petition humbles us by exposing our weakness, while at the same time comforting us with the assurance that our heavenly Father is our Keeper, who guards us, strengthens us, and preserves us in the midst of every trial.

Praying as Christ Taught Us: Forgive Our Debtors

One of the hardest commands in the Christian life is found in the next petition of the Lord’s Prayer: forgive those who sin against us. Not once. Not when it’s easy. Not when the other person deserves it, but again and again and again. In other words, Jesus says we should stop counting. Forgiveness in the kingdom of God is not about keeping score, but about having a transformed heart. To make that clear, Jesus tells a parable that expands the command in the Lord’s Prayer—exposing not just how often we forgive, but whether we truly understand grace at all.
