Pastor Jeff Lederer continues our sermon series, Sermon on the Mount.
Sermon on the Mount
Week 10
God take us back, the place we began
The simple pursuit of nothing but you
The innocence of a heart in your hands
God take us back, oh God, take us back
To an unswerving faith in the power of your name
A heart beating for your kingdom to reign
A church that is known for your presence again
God take us back
-Simple Pursuit by Passion
Matthew 6:25-34
Seeking God’s Kingdom first means every moment we have belongs to Jesus
Seeking God’s kingdom first is an embodied pursuit
“You sum up the whole of New Testament religion if you describe it as the knowledge of God as one’s holy Father. If you want to judge how well a person understands Christianity, find out how much he makes of the thought of being God’s child, and having God as his Father. If this is not the thought that prompts and controls his worship and prayers and his whole outlook on life, it means that he does not understand Christianity very well at all.
For everything that Christ taught, everything that makes the New Testament new, and better than the Old, everything that is distinctively Christian as opposed to merely Jewish, is summed up in the knowledge of the Fatherhood of God. ‘Father’ is the Christian name for God. Our understanding of Christianity cannot be better than our grasp of adoption.”
JI Packer, Knowing God
· Orphans have to take care of themselves.
· Orphans must be strong.
· Orphans must protect themselves from being taken advantage of.
· Orphans cannot depend on anyone.
· Orphans cannot be weak.
· Orphans crave to be taken in and loved but doubt they ever will.
· Orphans want to be accepted, to belong.
· Orphans only trust themselves.
· Orphans cannot get too close.
· Orphans are on the outside looking in.
Matthew 6:19-24
Seeking God’s Kingdom first is grounded in our adoption into His Family

Seeking God’s Kingdom first is grounded in our adoption into His Family
