Sermon on the Mount
In this issue, Christ has reached that stepping out point in His life upon this earth to begin His ministry with earnest, to prepare the people for what was to come, to remind them of who God is, what His desires are for those who would draw near to Him, and what manner of people we ought to be. Spiritually speaking we are going through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade all over again and the Master Teacher comes to us and says listen to me and I will show you the building blocks of righteousness. (Matt. 5:2 -12 … Matt. 7:12-14, 24-27) I don’t want your actions, I want your heart and those actions that spring from a heart that is in tune with God. (Matt. 5:13-16, 21-48… Matt. 7:1-6, 21-23) Where is your glory, is it in the things you do, or the one you do it for, and whose favor do you seek in doing them? (Matt. 6:1-4, 16-18) Who do you trust, where is comfort found if not in God, who can you go to with assurance that you will be heard and that you will receive an answer? (Matt. 6:5-15, 19-34.. Matt. 7:7-11) We try to make things so difficult when the Master Teacher in short time and with limited words spreads before us a never ending feast of love, trust, and practical application for our lives upon this earth. “This is My beloved son, …. hear ye Him.” Matt. 17:5
