We, The Kingdom…(Week 7): Kingdom Covenant | Vows & Oaths

Sermon Summary:

Jesus opens the doors of His kingdom, offering a new way of life to those who have been deemed by the world to be unworthy. Accepting Jesus means recognizing Him as both Savior and Lord, which involves a choice between continually submitting to worldly powers or embracing the transformative life found in Jesus’ kingdom. Jesus speaks openly about the pressures and oppositions believers will face while living in a culture that often contradicts His values. Jesus urges us to remain steadfast and courageous, by reminding us that He has already conquered the world. Because of that, we are freed up to live in such a way that our Kingdom values transcend partisan agendas. Our word (a simple yes or no) should stand on our character because it is being shaped and molded into the image and likeness of our King. According to Jesus, attempting to use God's name or His word to manipulate people for personal or political gain, is not only a form of lying, it is a diabolical evil that makes God an accomplice to an intentional act of injustice.
