Citywide Baptist Church
After six months we reach the conclusion of our weekly engagement with the most important sermon ever given... but it is clear that Jesus is wanting his words to stay with us. He believes the sermon he has given is the only foundation for life that will stand the test of time.
This week we will engage one last time with the whole sermon on the mount framed by Jesus' words: “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock... But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand."
Matthew 7:21 NIV
Jesus measures his followers by what they actually do.
Matthew 7:22-23 NIV
Jesus values the small, daily decisions over spectacular moments.

The Sermon on the Mount finishes by asking the core question:
"What are you building your life on?"
1 John 2:3-6 NIV
Matthew 7:28-29 NIV
Real authority comes from a life lived on solid foundations.
Matthew 5:1-48 MSG

Listening Prayer:
Jesus which part of your sermon do you want me to most focus on at the moment?
