Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commentary on the Sermon on the Mount I still feel that I owe my dear Friend Rothe warm thanks for having urged me to put forth my exegetical powers in connection with this portion of the New Testament. Although I have no doubts as to the genuineness of the Gospel of John, I must confess that the spirit of Christ finds me most directly in the first three Gospels; and their interpretation has had peculiar attractions for me, because in them the Son of God, at once Divine and human, and the climax of a redemptive process of two thousand years, is presented in a tangible physical shape. The great task of the present age - a task at which men of very different vocations, and with very different aims, are labouring - is to understand the relation in which Christ stands to the form of religion embodied in the Old Testaments: avoiding two opposite errors; that, namely, of degrading Christianity to a mere internal phenomenon of Judaism; and that of representing Judaism as Christianity under a veil, and thus effecting as near an approximation of the two as possible. I am bound to confess that the further my studies have extended, the more clearly have I seen that the religion of the Old Testament and the Gospel constitute one Revelation, and the higher has been my consequent estimate of the loftiness and depth of the Jewish Economy. The present fresh revision of my Commentary on the Sermon on the Mount has contributed to this result. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the Sermon on the Mount N order to understand the Sermon on the Mount, it lis necessary to have the mind of the Preacher, and this knowledge can be gained by anyone who will receive the Holy Spirit (see Luke XI. 13, John XX. 22, Acts XIX. The Holy Ghost is the only expounder of the teachings of Jesus. The one abiding method of interpretation of the teachings of Jesus is the Spirit of Jesus in the heart of a believer applying His principles to the particular circum stances in which he is placed. Be renewed in the spirit of your mind, says Paul, that you may make out what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Beware of placing Our Lord as Teacher first instead of as Saviour. That tendency is prevalent to-day, and it is a' dangerous tendency. We must know Him first as Saviour before His teaching has any meaning for us, or before it has any meaning other than that of an ideal which leads to despair. Fancy coming to men and women with defective lives and defiled hearts and wrong main springs, and telling them to be pure in heart! What is the use of giving us an ideal we cannot possibly attain? We are happier without knowing it. If Jesus is only a Teacher, then all He can do is to tantalise us by erecting a standard we cannot come anywhere near. But if we know Him first as Saviour, by being born again from above, we know that He did not come to teach us only He came to make us what He teaches we should be. The Sermon on the Mount is a statement of the life we will live when the Holy Spirit is having His way with us.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sermon on the Mount: A Practical Exposition IN reissuing this little book in a new form I wish, by way of preface, to say a few words upon the passages (pp. 72 - 78 and Appendix III., p. 227) in which I deal with the question Of divorce in the Christian Church. I am not prepared to alter the conclusions there drawn, so far as they were drawn from the first Gospel, upon which alone I was commenting. But I should wish to express a different opinion on the relation of the statements about divorce in the first Gospel to those given us by St. Mark and St. Luke.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These three chapters have been the most popular in the entire Bible. Anyone who has the curiosity and patience to study the indices of biblical quotations in the Church Fathers of the first three centuries will discover that Matthew 5 was quoted far more frequently than any other chapter in the Bible, while chapters 5-7 were quoted more frequently than any other three consecutive chapters. While innumerable commentaries have been written on individual books of the Bible, the Sermon on the Mount is one of the few sections within a book selected for special detailed study. The Sermon has long been recognized as the classic statement of one aspect of the Christian tradition. - Prologue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sermon on the Mount: A Practical Study of Chapters V-VII of St. Matthew's Gospel On the other hand it is an unwarranted restriction when the attempt is made to exclude the Gospel entirely from our minds in studying the sermon. The admission that it treats mainly of the Law by no means implies such a restriction of its meaning. Nothing is more needful for a correct understanding of the Scriptures than a proper distinction between Law and Gospel. We can understand neither in its pure import and purpose when we confound the one with the other. To tell people what God requires of us in the ten commandments, and then teach them that their only hope of eternal life must rest on their fulfill ment of these requirements, leads to despair. It may be a correct statement of the demands which the Creator justly makes upon His intelligent creatures, but it is a false presentation of the way of salvation revealed in Holy Scripture. Even when the Law of the Lord is studied, we need the Gospel in order to understand the Lord's will and to walk in the way by which He would lead us to the blessedness of eternal life.

Download or read book The Sermon on the Mount written by Carl G. Vaught and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1987-01-23 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the Sermon on the Mount as the locus classicus of the teachings of Jesus. It argues that the Sermon is an expression of the divine perfection in which it is grounded. The center of the book is the injunction contained at the center of the sermon itself—“Be perfect as your father in heaven is perfect.” Perfection of this kind is a human response to a divne gift. Consequently, all the Beatitudes and obedience to all the ethical prescriptions in the sermon should be understood as expressions of divine perfection and as finite reflections of God’s own work in the world. The Sermon on the Mount requires a transformation of the spirit before its message can become intelligible.
