Sermon on The Mount: “Life in the Kingdom of Jesus”
Matthew 4:12-17, 5:1-12 
v.12 “When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He withdrew to Galilee.

v.25 “LARGE CROWDS came to Him from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and the region across the Jordan, and they followed Him.”

v.5 “Blessed are the MEEK for they will inherit the earth.”
