Sermons

As Jesus continues his Sermon on the Mount, he makes a crucial point that not all his followers (including present day followers) understand well. Jesus came to free us from sin. He did not come to free us to sin. God commands that we live a holy life. After examining our lives, we can only despair over our lack of holiness. So, we flee to Christ who loves us despite our failures and who sacrificed himself for unholy people. Secure in his grace and empowered by the Holy Spirit, each day we strive to live the holy lives to which we have been called.

Jesus taught us what it meant to be his followers. He did it in the most famous sermon of all time. It was not delivered while standing in a pulpit but while sitting on a hill. Elevated above the crowd, Jesus’ voice carried through the air. His followers hung on his every word as the Christ talked about living an authentic Christian life. It is called the Sermon on the Mount.
