In this video we begin to study the Sermon on the Mount. In Matthew 5-7 we find an account of the Lord’s teachings. The Lord came teaching about the Kingdom of God and God as our Father. Since there was no media except word of mouth, He taught these precepts over and over again. After He taught He then demonstrated the power of the Kingdom and the goodness of the Father. How did He do it, through healings, miracles, and signs and wonders. Here is an excerpt of video transcript to encourage you to watch all the way through.
At last! The common people had a Teacher Who could speak with authority and power about God and help them to understand Him. Jesus came to instruct them that if they followed His teachings, they would have access to the Father without needing the scribes and Pharisees and their stringent rules. He came to declare the acceptable year of the Lord (Jubilee) and to free those who were in captivity to an out of control religious structure that crushed their spirits.
I hope you will view the video and use the scriptural references below the video to do your own study. The Spirit will guide you and lead you to the verses that will inspire you to desire further intimacy with HIM.
