The Beginning Of The Sermon On The Mount

The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew chapters 5-7) has been misunderstood and misinterpreted. In the early years of the twentieth century the modernists stole it to teach their idea of loving one another, etc. In reaction to this, when I first went to Bible school, I was taught the Sermon on the Mount was not for today but for the dawning of the Millennial Kingdom. It is clear to many scholars today that neither of these positions make sense. In fact, the Sermon on the Mount was for the disciples and for us. The Lord Jesus began His famous sermon describing what the subjects of the Kingdom of Heaven look like.
