Lessons from the Mount
Matthew 5-7: Sermon on the Mount.It takes less than 15 minutes to read, but a
lifetime to study and master.If we want stable lives, we must build them on
the foundation of Jesus’ words. Matt. 7:24-27: The wise and foolish men. What have you built your spiritual house on?
True blessedness comes from walking with Jesus. Matt. 5:3-11: The Beatitudes. Matt. 7:13-14: Which way? God’s or the world’s?
Lessons from the Mount
If we want to enter the kingdom of heaven, our righteousness must exceed the scribes/Pharisees. Matt. 5:20: God demands more. 4 keys to surpassing righteousness:
We can’t be righteous on our own (Matt. 5:3-6; Luke 18:9, 13).
Let our light shine (Matt. 5:16; 6:1-2, 5, 16; John 15:8).
Start with the heart (Matt. 5:21-48; 23:25-28). Obey the full intent of God’s commands.
Lessons from the Mount
If we want to live this sermon, we must treat others the way we want to be treated. Matt. 7:12: The Golden Rule. Lev. 19:18: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Matt. 22:37-40: The greatest commandments. As we consider day-to-day how to live this sermon
practically, we need to hang our hats on this rule.Jesus’ words are our foundation for a stable life,
no matter what the world thinks of us.True joy is discovered in the blessings of God.
