In this series, we will be looking at just a few of the parables Jesus used to illustrate His teaching and to make a point. The Greek word for parable is “paraballo” (παραβαλλω), a compound of two very vivid words; “para-“, which means beside or alongside, and “- ballo”, which means to throw. So, to teach by a parable is literally to throw a lesson alongside the true object of the teaching. I.E., The teacher illustrates this point by describing that point.

But Jesus would often conclude His parables with a certain saying, “He who has ears, let him hear!” Jesus was saying that it’s not enough for His words to enter your ears, or even your heart, it’s what you do with them that counts.

The Sermon on the Mount is Jesus’ longest recorded sermon in the Bible. His words to the disciples and curious crowds were radical! And they still are today. Instead of just teaching people to follow a list of religious rules, Jesus taught them the importance of obeying God from the heart.

True followers of Jesus follow Him in all things, even in their most private thoughts. Essentially, Jesus uses the sermon to ask us this question: Will you really follow me? Our answer to that question has eternal significance. It is only as true followers of Christ, with the help of the Holy Spirit in us, that we can accept Jesus’ words and live life from the right heart.

A life that follows Jesus’ teachings in the Sermon on the Mount is a life that unashamedly shines Jesus for the whole world to see. Join us in this series that teaches us how to shine our light and bring Him glory each day!
