Right Motives :: THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT

Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 10/04/20 by Pastor Steve Shields.

How can a doing a good thing be a problem?

When our motives are not in the right place, the good we do can be hypocritical, can take the glory that belongs to God, and it can deny God the opportunity to reward us.

In this podcast, Pastor Steve will lead us through Jesus’ words in Matthew 6:1-6. When we go through these verses, we see there are three areas where kingdom people need to be on our guard. Prayer done in public, talking about our spiritual life and showing off our sacrifices.

Does that mean we don’t do good things? No, but kingdom people do good carefully. We should examine our heart before God, and spend time alone with God. When we do these things the good we do brings glory to God!
