Treasures
We continue to look at the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus’ outline of what he wants his people to live like in the world. Put another way, Jesus says here that if we take the essential message of the Christian faith, the gospel, and actually live it out, it will not only make us different individuals, radically different people, but it’ll turn us into a counterculture. It’ll turn us into a completely new kind of human society.
He’s now talking about money. Let’s notice three things about money from his teaching. He’s going to tell us here how money can blind us, how money can reveal what controls us, and then he shows us how to break the power of money in our lives.
This sermon was preached by Rev. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on June 3, 2012. Series "Savior and Teacher - A Study of Matthew
". Scripture: Matthew 6:19-24.

What convicting truth for the truth. I needed to hear this and be reminded of the priceless treasure that is the gospel that I should give all my life for and how recognizing this treasure in the gospel will transform how I relate to others both in my church community but also around me. It's also healing truth to be reminded what a sinner I am and yet oh how graciously and freely I have been saved. Bless you brother Timothy Keller.
