Informed about this, I'm gonna Magandang Hapon have fun.
-
And I don't know, I think sermon videos and this sermon and this
-
sermon delivery that we would be having is originally written and
-
preached by Pastor Keith Davis. I preached on April 2004 and it
-
was in Lynnwood United Reformed Church in Illinois.
-
Mamma Mia, Captain doing Holy Week by your holy weekend.
-
Better Holy Week. Porta, you are in excess.

Celebrate now. I know loneliness.

-
Sunday. Hey, Gala night, Jerusalem.
-
This instance was that moment Kunzan Narasha says Some donkey

in the warm excited Sila now syllabus during that day and it
-
was because many of those people there, many of those people
-
believe that Jesus was really the promised Messiah.

-
Messiah is that miracle that he did when he raised Lazarus from
-
the dead. Marahil essayon Samantha bagan

and also Christ appearance during that time was in
-
fulfillment of zechariah 9 verse 9 cause his abandon your king
-
will come to you righteous and having salvation.
-
Gentle and riding on a cold. The foul of a donkey.
-
Okay, Patsalou bonilla Saranya. They swarmed out of the city and
-
shouted Hosanna, hosanna. It means please save us.
-
It means save us, we pray, or it simply means save us.
-
Now hit by epic Sabina, Satan, Hosanna.
-
And they said Hosanna. Blessed is he who comes in the
-
name of the Lord. Blessed is he who comes in the
-
name of the Lord at Dito Mahanati.
-
Scenario. NATO nothing Papuri Nagato

during that time Casey Alamilla kahitna Alam Nandos now possibly

-
because Jesus was not the type of king that they were expecting
-
or he they were anticipating their uncle mean on AIBA Salitas
-
and inasahan Ella. That's the reality that we're
-
seeing here at your Kingdom. Yukari Kahan now in established
-
or establish an I think indeed in your class in Hungarian or
-
young Kingdom. The unexpected Miller for Christ
-
came to Jerusalem not to gain glory for himself by being
-
exalted to an earthly throne. Again, it's not being
-
establishing an earthly throne on such lush castle or palace.
-
Rather, He came to gain glory for himself by being lifted
-
high, but not on an earthly throne, but rather lifted high
-
on a cross at a place called Golgotha.
-
That's where he was meant to be lifted.
-
It was from that cross that Israel's King would provide
-
salvation. It was from there that he would
-
secure his Kingdom. It was from there that very
-
cross, by the way of his cruel suffering and death, that he
-
would bring, would bring glory to himself.
-
So our question is and opium connection he told into salt and
-
light the topic night in connection It was acting series.
-
We just finished our series of the Beatitudes pain Patayo Igbo
-
proceeds adding the whole sermon of the Mount series Matthew 5
-
Matthew 7 and the question is I know connection.
-
It was assaulted in light. Samantha 5 Kanina Dito Makita of
-
how it would remind us that Jesus expects His church to live
-
in this world, to be part of this world, to engage into this
-
world just as he did. He entered this world with the
-
redemptive purpose to be in this world, but also not of this
-
world. And secondly, we are reminded
-
that we have been placed in this world to have this real effect,
-
to have this positive effect, to have that power, to have that
-
influence, to be able to impact this world that we have.
-
No one man has a greater influence in the world than our
-
Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ himself.
-
So that that was because he was God's own Son and he is God's
-
own Son. But now as Jesus prayed that as
-
we have read earlier that the Spirit of God's own Son to live
-
in us and us and him and as his own disciples and believers.
-
The church is called to identify and embraced her role and
-
calling need to put some Mundo Nathan just as Jesus lived to
-
testify the glory and truth of his Father, so does the church
-
Typhoon lahat Dito. That's that is what sold and
-
light is all about. So for our theme for this Lord's
-
Day, we would consider God's word and we would hear God's
-
word together in this theme. Christ calls believers, calls
-
his church to be a redeeming influence in the dead and Dark
-
World. That's our title for this
-
morning's sermon. Christ calls believers, calls
-
his church to be a redeeming influence in this dead and Dark
-
World. Then we have two headings.
-
First heading is the words world's desperate problem and
-
2nd the churches redeeming role. So proceed.
-
Let us all about our heads. Let us pray before our God.
-
Heavenly Father, we submit ourselves to you, ohh, God,
-
knowing that the authority is not in anyone, but only in you
-
and through your word. So as we come before you and
-
before your word, we ask for your wisdom of God.
-
We ask for your grace that we may be able to listen and not
-
just listen and not just to learn, but also to understand
-
and for our faith to be greatly established through your Word.
-
But only mommy Nanyang Katotohanan that I'm in Mullah
-
nagalingam and saying salita longing for we are weak on our
-
own Subs and we don't deserve anything yet it is by your grace
-
that you have granted us salvation through your word,
-
through the preaching of your gospel, through the preaching of
-
your truth. And we pray ohh God that may you
-
be glorified in this day. We thank you for everything and
-
guide us today and this we pray in Jesus name, Amen.
-
So first, first topic ball first um point Puna, then the world's
-
desperate problem nursing PayPal and Salt and light we have read
-
earlier Bilang as seen at ILO. Dang Mundo Hindi lampur ito

I know your condition. I went out and about and

-
Are you at the time for four hours similar adding sermon when
-
it comes to this aspect. We could look first for what
-
that salt is regarding that salt.
-
So explanation or example again, because if for example, Dito
-
Nina Banana explained and Sabrina, I know, I'm sorry, Dito
-
think nothing mcging understanding or interpretations
-
about Ganito and actually petting is a sunny lower.
-
Putting the epic Sabien Newton aspect NATO una we could know
-
that salt was commonly used in Bible times and even as we use
-
it today to flavour and season food.

-
making this about about salt. Now it is salt that provides
-
flavour for our food, making meals and making everything
-
pleasurable when we eat it. And this analogy about soul?
-
Probably one way or another, it makes sense if you see panelling
-
that and you indeed they live their lives without giving God
-
any pleasure or delight in him. Their lives fail to give God the
-
glory, the praise and honour that He deserves.
-
That's what a life is, without pleasure, without genuine
-
delight before God. But so it has a second major
-
purpose. Marathon Pangalawa pengamatan

on it to unintended meaning. The things are sold.
-
Then he was saying that the world was dead.
-
A subject to decay, a subject to corruption, to rotting and
-
spoiling. That's that's a meaning of what
-
what that would be the implication of why we are to be
-
sort of this world. Kadhto, Margita Nathena, Alien
-
minds. The wrong meaning in terms of
-
the emphasis now acting either as a flavouring influence or a
-
preserving power. The basic idea about the world
-
will just be the same without the presence of sort.
-
The world is going to be an awful place.
-
The world is going to be a dead, lifeless place.

-
So Anupam epic Sabina 10 second aspect or Sagan example, Jesus
-
was implying that the world around us is immersed in
-
darkness. This is what we are seeing here

about the world. He picks up INA Manatau Sandong

-
Now for a langata Tohan and they are just ignorant ignorant

-
We are still ascending in the evolutionary scale, but beyond

that darkness, that beyond and within that that really that
-
reality that they're setting alumni.
-
And now we're not improving, but we are getting worse because of
-
sin. We are getting more and more
-
becoming lovers of self than lovers of God.
-
We are not improving meringue some some preacher in an
-
exhibition despite the technological improvements and
-
developments of this world and Sabiya people are just becoming

more like comfortable monsters cause puro comfort.
-
I'm gonna have voluntario they thought there improving, but yet
-
because of those comfort of this world, people are decaying and
-
becoming more selfish. And as far as salt is concerned,
-
when it comes to salt, the aspect of salt Marami patinki

people's lives. Now within those things, kahit

-
There is still sin and that's the problem.
-
There is still sin behind those good works of those people.
-
So I've been going to John chapter 3 and this is the
John 3 chapter mention
-
judgement. The light has come into the
-
world, and people loved darkness rather than the light because
-
their works are evil. For everyone who does wicked
-
things hates the light, and does not come to the light, lest his
-
works should be exposed. Sabinsa, Romans 121 For although
-
they knew God, they did not honour him as God or give thanks
-
to Him. But they became futile in their
-
thinking, and their few foolish hearts were darkened because of
-
sin. That's a Romans chapter 3.

-
in Romans 3 verse 10 to 18 as it is written, no one is righteous,
-
no, not one, no one understands, no one seeks for God, and all
-
have turned aside together. They have become worthless.
-
No one does good, not even one. Their throat is an open grave
-
and they use their tongues to deceive.
-
The venom of ASPs is under their lips, their mouth is full of
-
curses and bitterness, their feet are swift to shed blood,
-
and in their parts are ruined. And misery and the way of peace
-
they have not known. There is No Fear of God before
-
their eyes. The totality of men is corrupted
-
by sin can get in and save been in Romans chapter 5 verse 12.
-
Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man and
-
death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all
-
have sinned, so that's the reality of this world.
-
That's the reality of sin in this world.

If they are of the world, if they don't have Christ, if they
-
live in the shadows of this Dark World, they are still dead and
-
their sin, they are lost. They are blind, a councillor

-
taste just like this world there.
-
There's nothing that they can do to escape this darkness.
-
The darkness of their waists, lifeless, flavorless, in total
-
darkness. That's why this is the
-
commentary that Jesus provides about the world which we live
-
right now among a captain, about the world in which he himself
-
lived. It's not just us who lived here,
-
but even our Christ, our Saviour, our Lord has lived
-
here. Now we must understand here that
-
Jesus was not saying this, this, this.
-
Things to be pessimistic have been acting delete that damn
-
buhai para making sobran pessimistic Lang tayo dito.
-
But in reality he is actually being realistic of what's
-
happening I think or para Sabina ito I judgment and Mundo.
-
But rather he is saying this with the best interest.
-
But where is this world? And in mind that in the heart.
-
Because after all, Jesus himself is the light of this Dark World.
-
He is the light of this world. He came into the world so that
-
those like us who are living in darkness could see the great
-
light of God because of only that alone at liberty is

-
salvation, providing satisfaction for sins, so that
-
the Father Michael unto him a remnant, A multitude without
-
number from every tongue, every tribe and every nation in the
-
world. By the redeeming and sanctifying
-
work of Jesus Christ, men's lives are made being pleasing an
-
acceptable before our God. Capone then I'm gonna start

-
just like us people in desperate need of God's grace.
-
They are sinners walking in darkness who need again who?
-
They need the light of Christ to shine in them, to give light to
-
their foolish hearts, to remind them, and to make light towards
-
their sin and to bring light in their darkened minds.
-
They are sinners who need the salt of Christ righteousness to
-
stop and prevent the spoil and decay within them, to purify
-
their hearts so that their thoughts, their words, their
-
actions are palatable, acceptable and pleasing to our
-
God. Capel Manor.

self-control and the rampant promotion of sin.
-
Now apple sana Hindi bahala hi Tina guinta young lamunin acting
-
self righteousness. But The thing is a bargain at
-
all. Because the greater temptation
-
is that whenever we see that the world is dark, we have the
-
tendency to be self-righteous in ourselves.
-
To think highly of ourselves, to think that there is a huge gap
-
between us and the world. To wish that God would just
-
punish all of them. Those who are evil and justice
-
save us that are righteous. But always remember that we are
-
just as sinners as them. The only difference is that we
-
are saved not because of our knowledge, not because of our
-
ability to have faith, not because of any decision that we
-
made on our own, but only by the grace of God.
-
Tanning I think just lemon and neglected satin it indeed,
-
really. That is why in his highly high

priestly prayer in John Child 17 even cries of prayed in 15 to

18. I do not ask that you take them
-
out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.
-
They are not of the world, just I am not of the world.
-
Sanctify them in the truth. Your word is truth.
-
As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the
-
world. Jesus has sent his church into
-
this world not for nothing but for a purpose.
-
And get deep Pasha, buma balek, mahapatra haha to unpack and get
-
my lahat. That very purpose remains in us,
-
Our Calling persist. And what is that calling Annaba
-

-
second point. Our church redeeming role and
-
purpose. Nothing in light of this
-
teaching of our of our Saviour about being sold in light of
-
this world. But the things I asked Bagnato
-
is a positive side in terms of our role, Valentina Muntoni too.
-
But we are now to focus on what are the things that we are to
-
do. Let us take a moment to look at
-
the message, to look at our passage and consider the context
-
where it is placed. Monsanto Nieto nito I isolate or

Lamar tomorrow, the attitude setting 11 Sundays are along

Lord's days not enough Pinagaralan natutunan and this
-
provides us with a very valuable perspective of what it means to
-
be salt and light. I hope we should not isolate
-
this text for this very text alone, but all the more it is
-
important for us to consider the whole context of this, because
-
the placement of this verse is teaches us that the godly
-
virtues which Christ spoke about us about the about our in or
-
about in terms of the beatitudes are not designed to be practiced
-
in isolation from the world. But rather, you might not narang
-

-
Christians life, about those qualities of a genuine Christian

Salt and light teaching is based on the teachings about the

-
teaching is based from the teachings about the beatitudes.

Meaning Jesus has already provided us with everything that
-
we need and everything that we know and everything that we need
-
to understand on how we can have this genuine impact or influence

our pure speech, our kind deeds of love and mercy towards

others. You know what, Makita Namundi

world, He is not asking us to do anything more than what He has
-
expected from us from the beginning.
-
And what is that? To be faithful, unhabited, To
-
walk before him in obedience? To be unashamed of the truth, To
-
be unashamed of Christ. To be unafraid to live for
-
Christ in a world that rejects the light and spits out the salt
-
of truth. For this world.

Sagging salt and light. So is Matthew 5 verse 13.
-
But if salt has lost his taste but don't know, how shall its
-
saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for

In both cases, Jesus is warning the Church against being
-
ineffective and useless in influencing this world for His
-
Kingdom and for His glory, consequently setting cognisance.

Caught up in temptation, swallowed up by our last and
-
sinful desires, we have lost our power to influence this world.
-
If we become this world, we, if we become like this world, we
-
will lose power and influencing this world not just as
-
individuals, but even as a church.
-
If we allowed ourselves as church to be contaminated by
-
this world, to be like this world, we will lose our power,
-
influence through the work of God.
-

he loses his power and influence in a world where adultery and

sin, our behaviour is unpalatable or unpleasant in the

face of the Lord as well. That's the reality of this

aspect. And if we continue to abide in
-
our sin, if we lose our saltiness, it just showed that
-
we are not really His. The Lord will treat us like a
-
lukewarm church and revelation. He will spit us out of His
-
mouth. Self possessed, self professed,
-
salts without taste. And lastly, as far as light is
-
concerned, thinking maybe Sabin or your analogy of being light,

Hello Amanda MiTo Light by nature is this is designed to
-
shine, it is made to be seen. So says Jesus is Church in this
-
world is to be a light set high upon a hill, visible to all
-
Hindi, Pinatago and Simbahan indios.
-
It should be set high, lighting the way for all to follow,
-
shining the light of Jesus Christ for all to see, both far
-
and near. And just like so, being light
-
requires that we live righteous lives before our Lord.
-
Chopping up was a sufficient 5 Nepal in Christ.
-
We are children of light, for the fruit of light consist of
-
all goodness and righteousness and truth.
-
We are to have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of this
-
darkness, but rather the purpose of light is to expose the
-
darkness of this world, for it is light that makes everything
-
visible. That is why it is said Wake up O
-
Sleeper, rise from the dead and Crist will shine on you.

To speak good words, to speak of comfort and encouragement to
-
other people. Then we are not letting our
-
light shine. Jesus said.
-
Let your light shine before men so they may see your good deeds,
-
our lives of holiness, our loving hearts, our past positive
-
attitudes, our kind speech, that they may praise your Father in
-
heaven. We do it not for ourselves, we
-
do it not to brag our light as if we are the one who has that
-
light on our own, but we flaunt it because we want the light of
-
Christ to be shown into this world.
-
In other words, by being salt and light, God displeased to us
-
to use us to bring the lost into a saving relationship with Him.
-
God is pleased to use us to wake the dead and to shine His light
-
on a Dark World so that the more and more lives may be seasoned
-
by His love, made palatable and pleasing to the taste.
-
God is pleased to use us to make the light of Jesus Christ shine
-
in men's heart and minds and souls, piercing their darkness,
-
chasing away the dark deeds of sin and evil of this world.

It is because this is our role. This is Our Calling.
-
So as long as we are in this world, let us be faithful to the

Lord. Let's be the salt of the earth
-
and the light of the world, and it is for God's glory alone and
-
not for us. Amen and Amen.

That's all bother and heads. Let us pray.
