Sermon on the Mount - Part 8
Sermons from Aberdeen Christian Fellowship
Context: Part of a series through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5–7). Vijay frames the sermon as what life looks like when Jesus is truly King—citizens living under God’s reign. Main passage: Matthew 7:1–6 (“Do not judge…”; speck/log; pearls before pigs). The central claim: the judge’s seat is already occupied—Jesus alone has the ultimate right to judge, justify, and condemn. What “do not judge” means (and doesn’t mean): It doesn’t eliminate moral clarity or discernment, or mean “anything goes.” It does confront a judgmental spirit:...

She also explores “mammon” as a rival master, arguing that trusting wealth for security easily becomes a kind of idolatry....

Summary This is a sermon in a series on the Sermon on the Mount. Florence has reached the “peak” (the central teaching) and will focus on the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:5–13).

She asks what our bank accounts and goals reveal about our true priorities, warning that storing up earthly treasure shapes our hearts and loyalties. Unpacking Jesus’ teaching about the “good eye,” she connects generosity with spiritual clarity and shows how greed creates divided focus, like trying to run toward two finish lines. She also explores “mammon” as a rival master, arguing that trusting wealth for security easily becomes a kind of idolatry.
While affirming the goodness of work and provision, she distinguishes that from the desire for more than we need, and links hoarding to worry and the modern illusion of control. The invitation is to seek God’s kingdom first, trust a generous Father who knows our needs, and step into a freer, more content life marked by generosity rather than fear.
