This sermon discusses the teachings of Jesus Christ, focusing on the metaphor of the “leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees” from Matthew 16:5-12. Pastor Joel emphasizes the importance of understanding spiritual teachings and warns against hypocrisy, using the example of the fig tree and the Pharisees’ behavior. The video also highlights the significance of genuine faith and the dangers of superficial religiosity.
Inspired by biblical teachings from Matthew and Luke, we reflect on the importance of not just displaying outward piety but cultivating true inner transformation. Our journey together is about more than just hearing the Word; it’s about letting it inspire you to live a holy and fruitful life.
As a body of believers, we encourage you to join us in prayer and draw closer to God, seeking His wisdom to see through the ‘leaven of the Pharisees.’ We believe every Christian is tried by fire to purify and strengthen their faith. Let’s walk this path together, holding one another accountable and spreading the Word far and wide.
We invite you to be part of our community—join us in person for worship services, and don’t forget to click the ‘LIKE’ button, subscribe, and share this message. Let’s continue to love GOD and inspire others to do the same. See you soon at The Way Fellowship!
