Sermon Notes:

Matthew 7:1-2

Matthew 7:1-2 (NKJV)

Luke 6:37-38
===============
Luke 6:37-38 (NKJV)
---------------
“Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”

Notes

Notes:

Deuteronomy 15:7-15
===============
Deuteronomy 15:7-15 (NKJV)
---------------
“If there is among you a poor man of your brethren, within any of the gates in your land which the lord your God is giving you, you shall not harden your heart nor shut your hand from your poor brother, but you shall open your hand wide to him and willingly lend him sufficient for his need, whatever he needs. Beware lest there be a wicked thought in your heart, saying, ‘The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand,’ and your eye be evil against your poor brother and you give him nothing, and he cry out to the lord against you, and it become sin among you. You shall surely give to him, and your heart should not be grieved when you give to him, because for this thing the lord your God will bless you in all your works and in all to which you put your hand. For the poor will never cease from the land; therefore I command you, saying, ‘You shall open your hand wide to your brother, to your poor and your needy, in your land.’
“If your brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, is sold to you and serves you six years, then in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you. And when you send him away free from you, you shall not let him go away empty-handed; you shall supply him liberally from your flock, from your threshing floor, and from your winepress. From what the lord has blessed you with, you shall give to him. You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the lord your God redeemed you; therefore I command you this thing today.

It's a Heart Thing...
===============
1.   Deal with a selfish heart.
2.   Deal with a grieving heart.
3.   Develop a generous heart. Matthew 6:21
