Sermon on the Mount

 

Our studies in the Old Testament book of Nehemiah drew to a close on December 14. We now have a short break before switching to the New Testament for a 14-week series on  the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew Chapters 5 to 7.

Real Christianity. Where is it? What does it look like? Surprisingly, a great many Christians are wondering that these days. Especially those who once based their faith on the solid foundation of Jesus Christ but have since become trapped in the rat race of performance-based faith . . . caged by the self-imposed demands of works, works, and more works. As a result, many now wonder, “What is real Christianity?” Simple faith isn’t about adding more religious demands to an already complicated existence. It’s about gaining freedom from tyrannical expectations and rediscovering the beauty of what Christ really taught. It’s about getting out of the cage and winging your way back to freedom, peace, and rest in Jesus Christ. It’s about discovering the heart of Jesus’s teachings and His life.

From January 4 through to April 5, our studies will focus on the message of the Sermon on the Mount—what it means to live an authentic, uncomplicated life. In short, it is a call to simple faith.
