    Never having been to this church‚ I was thoroughly impressed with Deacon Bob’s sermon. It was obvious he prepared extensively for his performance and it made his message that much more memorable. He explained to us that he was visiting from Trenton‚ NJ so it was nice to have a different perspective‚ a fresh take on things. Although you go to church knowing you will be preached to about Jesus and God‚ it isn’t just that. There are life lessons to be learned and they can be applied to everyday

    Loving your enemies does not seem easy‚ praying for them even harder‚ and doing both for those who persecute you‚ practically impossible. Conversely‚ during the Sermon on the Mount‚ recorded in Matthew 5:43-48‚ Christ calls his followers to love their enemies‚ a calling that perhaps seemed just as contrary to first century culture as today’s culture. However‚ as seen through Christ’s ministry on earth‚ he did not call his followers to what seemed easy‚ but to radically transform their lives to adhere

    Matthew 5:27-32 is part of the Sermon on the Mount discourse‚ which is one of the five discourses of the Gospel of Matthew (5-7‚ 10‚ 13‚ 18‚ and 23-25). This passage locates relatively earlier in the Sermon. Professor Dallas Willard (1998)‚ in his book The Divine Conspiracy‚ claims that “The later parts of the Discourse presuppose the earlier parts and simply cannot be understood unless their dependence upon the earlier parts is clearly seen” (p. 138). If the sequential order in the discourse

Also the second and third line rhymed in every single stanza‚ jet; sweat‚ weaves; leaves. The rhythmic pattern was very evident and very hard to ignore. I also noted that the third line in each stanza was the longest
