Sermon text: Matthew 5:13-20 Look What Love Can Do
Our tour of The Sermon on the Mount continues, as Jesus encourages his followers to be salt of the earth, and light of the world.
· How can you be both “salt” and “light?” What different attributes do these two words convey?
· According to the reading, what is the purpose of good works? What should be our motivation for performing them?
· As Lutherans, we understand salvation to come through God’s grace rather than through works. How do you understand Jesus’ emphasis in this passage on keeping God’s commandments, in light of the promises of grace?
