Matthew 23:13-22 | Misusing the Keys
In Matthew 23:13–22, Jesus pronounces a series of sobering woes against the scribes and Pharisees. These religious leaders had been entrusted with the truth of God, but rather than using that truth to lead people into the kingdom, they stood in the way. In “Misusing the Keys,” Todd Fletcher examines Christ’s warning against religious leadership that distorts the truth and closes the door of the…
In Matthew 23:1–12, Jesus confronts the hypocrisy of the scribes and Pharisees—religious leaders who loved recognition, titles, and positions of honor but failed to practice what they preached. In “Servants, Not Showmen,” Todd Fletcher explains that true spiritual leadership is not about appearing impressive before others. Christ calls His followers to reject pride, practice what they teach, and…
What does genuine wisdom look like? In James 3:13–18, Scripture contrasts the selfish, destructive wisdom of the world with the pure and peaceable wisdom that comes from God. In this sermon, “The Fruits of Wisdom,” CJ Bohnen explains how true wisdom is revealed not merely through what we know, but through the humility, conduct, and spiritual fruit displayed in our lives. Earthly wisdom produces…
After answering every challenge brought against Him, Jesus turns the tables on the religious leaders and asks them a question: “What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is He?” Their answer—that the Messiah is the son of David—is correct, but incomplete. Quoting Psalm 110, Jesus shows that the promised Christ is not merely David’s descendant; He is David’s Lord. In this sermon, Pastor Todd…
In Matthew 22:34–40, a lawyer tests Jesus by asking which commandment is greatest. Christ’s answer brings the whole duty of man into focus: love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself. In this sermon, Pastor Todd Fletcher explains why love is not merely one Christian virtue among many but the weight upon which the whole Law and Prophets hang. True obedience…
In this sermon from Nahum 1:9-15, Nahum applies God’s character to the current situation of oppression from Assyria. We too must apply God’s character to our life. We must forsake human wisdom and replace it with confidence in God’s wisdom and plan. 1. The Collapse of Human Plans (v9-11) 2. The Comfort of God’s Judgement (v12-14) 3. The Confidence of God’s Plan (v15)
In Matthew 22:23–33, the Sadducees come to Jesus with a question designed to trap Him and undermine the doctrine of the resurrection. Since they denied the resurrection, they presented what they thought was an impossible scenario. But Jesus exposes the real problem: they did not understand the Scriptures or the power of God. With divine wisdom and authority, Jesus defends the truth of the…
In Matthew 22:15–22, the Pharisees and Herodians tried to trap Jesus with a question about paying taxes to Caesar. But Jesus answered with perfect wisdom: “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” In this sermon, Pay Caesar, Worship God, we consider what Jesus teaches about earthly authority, civic responsibility, and the far greater claim God has upon…
In Matthew 22:1–14, Jesus tells the parable of the wedding feast—a powerful picture of God’s gracious invitation, man’s sinful rejection, and the necessity of coming to the King on His terms. In this sermon, “Everything is Ready,” Pastor Todd Fletcher walks through Christ’s warning to those who refuse the invitation of the kingdom and the sobering truth that many are called, but few are chosen.…
2 Timothy 2:23-26 | The Presentation of His Truth Pt. 2
How should Christians respond when the truth is opposed? In 2 Timothy 2:23–26, Paul gives Timothy clear instruction for handling controversy, correction, and conflict in the church. The servant of the Lord must not be quarrelsome, even when dealing with those who are difficult, deceived, or resistant to the truth. Instead, he must be kind, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, and correcting…
