Over these next couple months, we are going to explore one of the most famous sermons in the whole Bible: The Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5-7. Many people think this sermon is the Magna Carta of the church age, the marching orders for building the church of Jesus Christ and “building the Kingdom”. But was this what Jesus intended with the Sermon on the Mount? Is it even meant for church age Christians? Let’s dive in.

This month, we are going back to our study on Gospel Clarity, where we have been exploring different false gospel response clichés. In these next few sessions, we will explore the false gospel response of repentance for salvation.
Many people, whether intentionally or unintentionally, think and preach that a requirement for salvation is turning from your sins; “repenting of” or “repenting from” your sins in order to be saved. We will explore why that thinking is incorrect.

This is the final week of our look into the topic of Lordship Salvation.
Basically, what Lordship Salvation advocates teach is that in addition to simple faith in the person and work of Christ on the cross, one needs to submit or yield to Christ’s lordship. In fact, they would include submission as a vital part of “saving faith.” Where does that come from, and why is it a false gospel cliché?

Let's continue our look at baptsim. Water baptism is another common gospel pre-requisite cliché that causes much confusion on the gospel. How did water baptism become a “requirement for salvation” for many Christians, when it’s not found in the Bible?

Let's continue our look at repentance in the Bible. Repentance is perhaps The Most Misunderstood Word in the Bible. The answer to the question "Is repentance necessary for salvation?" is both yes and no. It depends on what is meant by the question. If by asking "Is repentance necessary for salvation?" the person means that the sinner must first repent, have a change of mind, and stop sinning in order to get saved, then the answer would be no. Let’s look more into this.
