The Redeemer Church

Pastor Gabriel investigates the Beatitudes in Matthew 5 and argues that Jesus is describing who we are, not handing us a checklist. Salt and light are things, not tasks; the law is fulfilled in the heart rather than in rule-keeping; and "be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect" is a call to a state of being. With a candid look at his own struggle after last week's message, he shows how the enemy shifts our focus from our identity as sons and daughters of God to our actions and everyone else's — and why the answer is simply to abide in Jesus.
