The Light Shine in the Darkness

Outline The Light of the world (v 12) The Darkness of the world (v 13-30) Those living in darkness judge Jesus by human standards Those living in darkness do not know God Those living in darkness will die in darkness Where we see the light

The Extra Mile
| Matthew 5:38-48 |
What does it really mean to ‘go the extra mile’ for someone? In this message, we hear how this saying from Jesus doesn’t match up with what we might think the saying means.

(Mat. 5:39) Going the extra mile by giving more than required. (Mat. 5:40) Going the extra mile by living generously. (Mat. 5:42) Why we live in the second mile?

(1 Peter 2:21-24)
