    However, it clear from Scripture and history that many have perished, are perishing, and will perish. Only those who fight a good fight and finish their course will be saved.

    When someone mentions the Sermon on the Mount, most immediately think of the Beatitudes. That was the introduction of the message, but if that is all we take away from this powerful message, we have missed much truth and benefit for our lives.

    Series Introduction Matthew 5: 1-2 I would like to begin laying the groundwork for a series of messages I hope to preach on The Sermon on the Mount. I think we would all agree that Jesus was the greatest preacher to ever open the pages of God’s Word and expound upon a passage. In chapters 5-7 of ...read more
