Intro

This Sunday, Pastor Jon unpacked Jesus’ second ‘woe’ to the Pharisees in Matthew 23, where He called out their toxic evangelism converting people into children of hell instead of children of Heaven. We are challenged to reflect on how we can bring the good news of Jesus to people without the coercion and cultural baggage that seems to do so much damage. Jesus promises that if He is lifted up, He will draw all people to Himself and satisfy them. All we are called to do is present the free gospel to the thirsty world, and it will bring the Kingdom of Heaven and turn people into children of God.
