This Month's Teaching (October, 2025)
The Teachings of Master Jesus, Episode 6: Sundry Teachings-2
Main Text: Matthew Chapter 7
In the last 2 months, we deviated from our scheduled sermons to deal with the issue of cremation. This month, we are back on track. Remember, Jesus Christ did not give us religion. He gave us "Common Sense" Christianity, and this is displayed in all His teachings.
1. On the subject of Judging:
In [Mat 7:1], Christ said: "Judge not, that ye be not judged". Does this mean that we can't judge anyone at all, or that even the
court judges cannot render judgements in court cases? Did Apostle Paul violate this commandment when he told the Church
in [1 Cor 5:3] that he has judged the church member who was reported to have slept with his father's wife? Not at all.
What our Great Master is saying here is that you cannot judge someone else on the very issues, crimes, and behaviors you
yourself engages in all the time. For example, you can't call someone a liar or judge someone on the issue of lying when you
yourself are a habitual liar. In [Mat 7:2], our Master further explained this teaching with this statement: "with what judgement ye
judge, ye shall be judged", and went even further in [Mat 7:3-5] by stating the importance of setting yourself straight before
trying to set others straight.
2. On the subject of who is allowed to participate in spiritual worship.
In [Mat 7: 6], Christ teaches that we should "give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before swine". This means
we cannot allow anyone who has been given the gospel but refused, rejected or mocked it, to come into the sanctuary of
worship, because like the swine described in the remaining of verse 6, they will turn around and destroy the body of Christ.
This does not mean that we can't invite unbelievers to the Church. They are always invited, and they can come as they are,
but they cannot stay as they are, since staying as they are destroys the very purpose of the Gospel.
3. On the subject of Asking and Receiving from God:
In [Mat 7: 7-12], Christ exposes us to the consistent "amazing", "beneficiary" nature of God by stating that "For everyone that
asketh receiveth; and that seeketh findeth, and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened" [Mat 7 :8]. What is so interesting about this promise
is that it is not directed to Christians alone, but to "everyone", and also not directed to good things alone, but to bad. In
other words, if you ask God for good things, you will receive them, and if you ask for evil things, you will receive them. This
teaching also confirms one of God's universal laws He revealed to us through Moses in [Deuteronomy 30:19]:
"I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both
thou and thy seed may live". In other words, God has set good and evil, life and death before us, and whichever one we ask for,
we will receive.
4. On the path to Heaven:
In [Mat 7: 13-14] Master Jesus issues warnings on the paths that lead to heaven and hell. He said: "Enter in at the straight gate".
What is the straight (and narrow gate)? It is the gate that has streamlined and clipped every side distraction. It is the gate
least used by most people on earth [Mat 7:14], because there's no room for the excess "luggage and garbage" of life
(that is, no room for worldliness, materialism, and anything else that will hinder your heavenly journey, and is the opposite
of the wide gate that leads to destruction [Mat 7:13].
5. On false Prophets:
In [Mat 7: 15-20] Master Jesus issues stark warnings on the dangers of false prophets, especially in the church today. He
specifically mentioned that they will be "wolves in sheep's clothing" [Mat 7:15], that is, they will pretend and appear to be
speaking for God, appear and pretend to be hearing from God, and caring for the needs of the congregation, but in reality,
they are the agents of satan who does not care about the physical or spiritual well-being of their followers. Christ also made
it easy for us to spot or recognize them: "Ye shall know them by their fruits" [Mat 7: 16], that is, you can easily spot them by their
lifestyles, and their doctrines, especially their doctrine of "gain is godliness".
6. On false Christians:
Today, the world is deceived into believing that everyone that goes to church, or everyone that mentions the name of Jesus
Christ is a christian. In [Mat 7: 21-23] Master Jesus issues warnings to those who erroneously believe that they are
heaven-bound, when they have not come to the knowledge of the "True" Jesus Christ. In [Mat 7:21], Christ states that only
those "that doeth the will of My Father" shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. What is the will of the Father? They are brilliantly
documented in the teachings of Christ throughout the gospels.
7. On the importance of holding fast to, and practising the teachings of Christ:
In [Mat 7: 24-29] Master Jesus states expressly the importance of hackening to His teachings, and uses the illustration of a
man who built his house on a "solid rock" and the one who built on "sand", and the consequences of their decisions.
"Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock" [Mat 7:24],
and "And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand".
These two contradictions are not only between believers and unbelievers in Christ, but applies also to those in church-
those who professing christians who believe and practice His teachings, and those who honor the lies and practices of their
false pastors and false churches. From these verses, we find out that the only way to escape the chaos and calamities,
survive and thrive in our unstable world today is to study and do, and live the teachings and instructions of our
Great Master, Jesus Christ.
