Matt. 6–7 HEAVENLY TEACHINGS

Secret motives of life (6:1–18). (See on Luke 12:1–12.) Here illustrated in three specific areas are the actions which lead to spiritual growth and maturity:

Giving to the needy (6:2–4). Give as if you give to God; do not make a show of it. (See on Matthew 23.)

Prayer (6:5–15). (See on Luke 11 and 18.)

Fasting (6:16–18). (See on Mark 2:18–22.)

Treasures in heaven (6:19–34). (See on Luke 12:13–34.)

Do not judge others (7:1–5). (See on Luke 6:39–45.)

Do not throw pearls before pigs (7:6). This means that we should use common sense and tact in talking about our religion—otherwise we may do our cause more harm than good.

Persistent prayer (7:7–11). (See on Luke 18:1–8.)

The Golden Rule (7:12). (See on Luke 6:27–38.)

The narrow road (7:13–14). Many will be lost, few saved—few, that is, in comparison to the number of the lost. But in the end, the saved will nevertheless be “a great multitude that no one can count” (Revelation 7:9).
