<div class="SSN_title">"SERMON ON THE MOUNT"</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">I. WHY A STUDY IN SERMON ON THE MOUNT?</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. Most obvious feature of church today is its superficiality.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Compared with Acts.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Compared with other eras and epochs.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">3. What is the cause for this?</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. Our attitude toward the Bible.</div>
<div class="SSN_level5">1. Our textbook, only source and final authority.</div>
<div class="SSN_level5">2. Cannot rely upon experience.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">b. Must be approached in right manner.</div>
<div class="SSN_level5">1. Not mechanical (beware of rules and regulations).</div>
<div class="SSN_level5">2. With open heart (never with a theory).</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">II. FOR WHOM WAS THIS SERMON INTENDED?</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. Many views: Social gospel - only thing that really matters in New Testament. These are the principles of life, how men ought to live and all we had to do is to get men to live this way and we will have the kingdom of God.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. Elaboration of the Mosaic Law.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Nothing more than proper interpretation.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">C. Dispensational view.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">D. Sermon was preached to His disciples. vs. 1,2.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Meant for all Christians.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. It is not live like this and you will become a Christian, but because you are a Christian you live like this.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">E. Is not Sermon in contrast to grace?</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Our sins forgiven only if we forgive others.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. The man who is truly forgiven and knows it is the man who forgives.</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">III. WHY SHOULD WE STUDY AND TRY TO LIVE BY THIS SERMON?</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. Christ died in order that I might.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. It reveals absolute necessity of new birth.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">C. The more we live and practice the more we are blessed.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">D. It is the best means of evangelism.</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">IV. SERMON MUST BE CONSIDERED AS A WHOLE.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. Some waiting for certain scriptures.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. "Give to him that asketh of thee."</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Sermon like musical composition.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">3. Unless you take it as a whole cannot understand particular injunctions.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. Beatitudes came at beginning.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Until you are clear about them, go no further.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. I never discuss this sermon with anyone who is not a Christian. (They cannot understand)</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">C. General division of sermon.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Description of character of Christian.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. Reaction of men towards him.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. How he lives in a materialistic world. (5:17-48)</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">3. His life in the presence of God (6).</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">4. Warning and exhortations to Christians.</div>
