    Sermon On The Mount Lesson 7

    Lesson 7

    "Very solemn and searching is this sixth Beatitude, for it equally condemns most of that which now passes current for genuine religion in Christendom. How many today rest satisfied with a head religion, supposing that all is well if their creed be sound; and how many more have nothing better than ...read more

    Lesson 8

    With His statement "Blessed are the peacemakers" the Lord surely must have shocked those around Him. How could the Jews ever hope to overthrow the Roman government and restore themselves to a place of prominence if they were going to be a bunch of "peacemakers?" The Romans were not going to just ...read more

    Lesson 15

    Even though the subject of divorce is a controversial one, and one that carries with it a great deal of emotion, it is not one on which the Bible is silent. Both the Old and New Testaments mention the subject on various occasions, but putting all the pieces together in hopes of seeing the whole ...read more

    Lesson 16

    Years ago children, in an effort to convince their friends that they were really serious about a matter, used to make an oath of sorts. The oath was something similar to, "Cross my heart and hope to die, stick a needle in my eye." When that "cross my heart" vow was taken, the only legal way to ...read more

    Lesson 17

    The apostle Paul, writing to the church in Colosse said, "Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:" (Colossians ...read more

    Lesson 19

    As we move into the sixth chapter of Matthew, Jesus begins to deal with some practical areas of Christian living. The focus still seems to be having a righteousness that exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees (Matthew 5:20). Having corrected some of the more prevalent teaching errors of the ...read more

    Lesson 20

    At this point in the Lord’s sermon we come to what is commonly referred to as "The Lord’s Prayer." More properly it should be referred to as "The Model Prayer" or "The Pattern Prayer." While the Lord never literally prayed these words, He does present for us a "model" or a "pattern" that should ...read more

    Lesson 22

    Lesson 22 Matthew 6:10 "...Thy kingdom come..." Having opened our prayer with praise, we now move to the part of our praying where we begin to petition the Father. The first petition deals with the coming of His kingdom. There is actually two aspects of the coming of God’s kingdom. I. THE ...read more

    Lesson 23

    "...Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven..." Our Father has a name we must hallow, He has a kingdom which must be established, and in addition, He has a will we must obey. Obeying the will of God is the natural result of His kingdom rule being established in our hearts. Or as Arthur ...read more

    Lesson 24

    "Give us this day our daily bread." Here we have the first of three petitions relating to our personal needs. While a good amount of our prayer time ought to involve worship, it also involves asking for specific needs to be met. James said specifically, "ye have not, because ye ask not" (James ...read more

    Lesson 25

    "And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors." At the outset of any discussion concerning this verse one must observe closely how it begins. It begins with the word "And", which connects it closely to the previous verse. There are at least three practical reasons for the connection ...read more

    Lesson 26

    "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:" This is perhaps the most difficult of all the Lord’s words in this "Model Prayer." The difficulty arises from what seems to be a contradiction of other Scriptures. For example, James 1:13 says, "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am ...read more

    Lesson 27

    "For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen." I. A DOXOLOGY OF PRAISE The word "doxology" comes from two Greek words. One word is doxa which means "glory or praise." The other word is logos which means "word or to speak." So a "doxology" is a spoken word of glory ...read more

    Lesson 29

    As Jesus continues His Sermon on the Mount, He addresses an issue that most of us are all too familiar with, and that is the issue of worry. Perhaps it will bring some comfort to know that we are not the first people to ever have to worry or be anxious about paying our bills, feeding our families, ...read more

    Lesson 31

    For the first and only time in this sermon, we find Jesus addressing the same subject twice. The subject of prayer was covered in detail in Matthew 6, especially in the section dealing with the Model Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13). His second mention of the subject shows how serious a matter prayer is ...read more
