Jesus instructs his core about the Kingdoms upside-down approach to conflict resolution.
Love your enemies. Loving your enemies is how God plans to Glorify Himself & perfect you. May we look, love, & lead like our Father!
Jesus gives us the appropriate understanding of the law relating to adultery, divorce, and oaths.
Jesus teaches forgiveness and reconciliation are remedies to the anger cycle.
In the kingdom, anger is a signal to tell us something wrong that needs to be made right.
When we choose to not take out our rage on others, pursue forgiveness, and make amends, we take part in God’s Kingdom on earth.
The Law of God is a good gift that protects us from our flesh & provides for us an intimate invitation into Kingdom Living & ‘right relationship’ with Him.
When we reject this offer of relationship, the law reveals to us our deep need for reconciliation. It is horrifying & humbling to sit & stare in the mirror;
#ButGod in Christ makes a way as he fulfills the law & returns us to relationship in His Kingdom.
Your reputation does not just belong to you. Our reputation is inherited and cultivated.
Jesus makes it clear that our Kingdom reputation is about our identity as sons and daughters- we ARE salt, we ARE the light of the world.
This is not about striving harder, but living out who Jesus already says we are. All for His Glory and the good of humanity.
The fruit of Kingdom living is expressing peace and experiencing persecution with Jesus. By living this way, you walk a well-worn path of those who have gone before, and sought the Lord.
When I present myself empty, desperate & dependent before the Lord, He is ready and willing to cultivate Kingdom Living within me.
When connected to the vine, the beatitudes display the shoots of a life lived for Him.
The Sermon on the mount is a call to KingdomLiving, & an invitation to journey with Jesus. The beatitudes is the foundational expression of this life.
The Spirit saves & cultivates our Kingdom Living starting with the soil of each of us seeing that we are desperate & dependent on Him!
But God calls us in our spiritual bankruptcy to experience the abundance of riches in His garden of Grace!
The sermon on the mount is Jesus’s authoritative teaching on kingdom living.
What did he say and why does it matter?
