What would be the “speck” in Jesus’ eye?
Throughout the sermon on the mount, we’ve seen that everything is about Jesus. But how can we have other applications from other than just “we need Jesus because he fulfills it, he’s the only that’s righteous.”?
Mat 7:21-23 how does this go with Romans 10:9 if you declare Jesus is Lord and believe God raised him from the dead you will be saved? Do the false prophets not believe the second part?
Can Matt 7:21-23 be applied to Christians now? I have heard many preachers express anxiety at these verses that people may not be true followers? Is this a valid thing to feel or is it only applicable to the OT?
How can non Christians find wisdom in the Christian cliches if the Bible is foolishness and folly to the NC? How do they understand without the Holy Spirit? Is it helpful for us to ask, seek and knock if we are already saved?
If there is one faith (Eph 4:4-6), are pre-cross Jews the same as Christians? How does this relate to Romans 11? Can we ever apply the gospel straight to us? e.g. wise as serpents, innocent as doves
