Sermon on the Mount
God's ways are so radically counter-cultural. But they lead to real life.
The sermon on the mount is the best teaching sermon of all time about what God’s kingdom is really all about. If we master it, we will become free and filled with peace. But it is so counter cultural that it requires complete surrender. We can’t serve man and God. We must put all of our chips in on God and His ways, which bring radical transformation to anyone who is able to implement them into their lives. It is not easy to do, but boy is it worth it if you can.
“Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2 and he began to teach them.
