Sermons of Redeeming Life Church

Are we commanded to tithe? Should we give 10 percent to the Lord? Has giving changed from the Old Testament to the New Testament? What does God want us to give? Pastor Bryan answers these questions in his sermon, “Give God’s Way” (Matthew 6:1-4), as he looks at Christ’s teaching on giving in His famous sermon on the mount. It’s not a matter of how much you give, but rather the heart behind your giving to the Lord. Realizing all that God has given us, to include the life of His Son, this should change our perspective on how and what we should give. Our abilities, our finances, and our time should be given freely without reservation to the Lord. When we give in this way we show God that we love Him with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength.

What is the greatest commandment in the Bible? How can we love God? How do we love others? How do the commandments from God given in the Old Testament relate to the commands that Christ has given us in the gospels? In his sermon, All You Need Is Love (Matthew 22:34-40), Pastor Josiah answers these questions and others as he examines the command from Christ to love God and love others out of Matthew 22:34-40. It can be hard to love others, especially those who frustrate us or belittle us because we are not like them. Through the exposition of God’s word, Pastor Josiah shares how through the sanctifying work of the holy spirit, we are able to overcome our personal barriers that prevent us from living out this primary command that Christ has given us to love God and love others.

In his sermon, "Pray God's Way" (Matthew 6:5-13), Pastor Bryan Catherman not only looks at Jesus' commandment to pray, but more specifically, the specifics about how and what to pray. Are Christians free to pray any way they want, or does God have preferences about prayer? What are the specific areas in which we should pray? Is the Lord's prayer a model for us, or is this something we're required to pray verbatim? Pastor Bryan seeks to answer these questions and many more from Mathew 6:5-13. We encourage you to read Matthew 6:3-13 and listen to Pastor Bryan's sermon. How might understanding more about prayer help you in your Christian walk? In what areas could you use help in your prayer life? Do you want to have more vibrant, healthy habits of prayer? Don't we all! Matthew 6:5-13 is a great start.

What is the Lord’s Supper? What is the Passover? How does the Lord’s Supper and the Passover relate to each other? In his sermon, Final Instructions (Matthew 26:26-30), Pastor Josiah D. Walker answers these questions and others as he unpacks the First Lord’s Supper from Matthew 26:26-30. In this section of Matthew, we see Jesus share instructions with His disciples on how He is establishing a new covenant between God and man. The covenant that Christ instituted replaces the covenant of the Old Testament that was established between God and the Israelites. Thankfully, this new covenant is not contingent on our ability to keep God’s commands but is based on God’s faithfulness to always forgive us of our sins. Pastor Josiah also shares how when we take the communion together as a gathered body of baptized believers, it is meant to point us to the cross, remind us of Christ’s death, and show us that we are redeemed and rescued from our sins not based on our works, but on Christ’s substitutionary atonement. This sermon was preached on Sunday, April 21st, 2024 as part of our Commands of Christ series. For more information, please visit RedeemingLifeUtah.org.
