Sabbath School with Branch Davidians

Many Christians interpret the passage Matthew 5:17-20 to teach that people who break the least of the commandments and even teach others to also break them will make it into God’s Kingdom, but be given the title “LEAST.”  Is that consistent with Jesus’ teaching? Join us as we look at 6 reasons to understand what Jesus is saying in Matthew 5:17-20 differently.

The record of Jesus’ answer to a Pharisee’s question highlights Jesus’ emphasis for Moral Perfection in our lives. Jesus would not have taught that we should keep the law and achieve moral perfection if He didn’t believe we could do it.

Sabbath School with Branch Davidians

Do we have the potential to do the same works Jesus did? According to what Jesus taught, yes we do. In this study we look at a number of teachings of Jesus in the Gospel of John in which He  flat out says that His followers have the potential to not walk in darkness but rather do the works of truth and come into the light, and that if we do this, we will be able to do the same sorts of things that He did, and even greater.  For more study, see: “What Jesus Taught About Doing Right and Wrong,” by Trent Wilde  Why Did Jesus Liken Himself  to a Doctor? ...

Sabbath School with Branch Davidians

Is it possible to always do the right thing and always avoid doing wrong? Many Christians think this is impossible, nor the standard for the Christian here in this life. But what we will look at in this podcast is one teaching of Jesus found in Matthew 4:17 and 7:16-18, and also in Luke 6:43-44, that dispels the idea that Jesus thought moral perfection is impossible for us here in this life.
