Jesus Regarding Rewards
from Chris Stuart - Tyndale’s Plowboy Hosted by cstpb
The central message of this sermon is that Jesus teaches us to seek rewards as motivation for serving Him, but not rewards from men or earthly recognition, but rather from our Heavenly Father. The sermon argues that it's not wrong to want rewards, but rather it's seeking the wrong rewards that's problematic. Jesus presents a clear cause-and-effect relationship between obedience and reward in Scripture, where faithfulness, love, and service are consistently tied to receiving rewards from God. This challenges the common assumption that seeking rewards is self-centered or mercenary, and instead suggests that seeking God's approval and reward is a biblical and desirable goal for Christians. The takeaway is that when we serve God with the right motivation, seeking His reward rather than human praise, we will experience true freedom, joy, and fulfillment in our relationship with Him.
