Matthew 6:1 - 6:4 Introduction

Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this lesson on Matthew 6:1-4, Steve Gregg discusses the true meaning of righteousness and the importance of giving, praying, and fasting. He highlights the danger of seeking rewards for religious acts in the ways that the carnal flesh appreciates, rather than seeking a reward from God alone. Instead, he urges listeners to focus on the condition of their heart rather than the recognition of others, and to avoid the two mistakes of hypocrisy and vain repetition in their prayer life. Overall, the lesson emphasizes the importance of genuine faith and obedience to God rather than outward religious acts for the sake of appearance.
