The Warning & The Reward

Summary

The sermon from Matthew 6 warns against performing acts of righteousness—giving, praying, and fasting—to be seen by others, emphasizing that true reward comes from God who sees in secret. It highlights the importance of sincere motives rooted in love for God rather than seeking human approval, and encourages believers to live with a singular focus on pleasing the Father. The preacher also discusses the present and future rewards for genuine faith and warns against hypocrisy, urging believers to cultivate a heart transformed by Christ's righteousness.
