What is the Sermon on the Mount?
Jesus visited the towns scattered through the countryside of Galilee, speaking in each about the kingdom of heaven. News of Jesus spread, and people traveled long distances, bringing the sick to be healed.
But as Jesus looked into the faces gathered around Him, He saw much more than sickness and disease. He saw the fear and sin that kept people from. feeling close to God. He wanted to tell them how to live so that each day might be filled with joy and contentment. So Jesus went up on a hillside and began to speak. A huge crowd gathered. The people stayed to listen for hours.
"Don’t worry all the time," Jesus said. "How you live your life is much more important than what you eat or what you wear. If you think first of what God wants, He will take care of you, just as He takes care of the flowers and the birds. "God is more important than money. Don’t pile up money here on earth where robbers can steal
it. Make serving God your treasure, and He will store it in heaven for you."These teachings are part of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. The words are as true today as they were for the people on that hillside in Galilee so many years ago.
