Sermon on the MountSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the Sermon on the Mount and states that it presents a lofty objective for human attainment. He explains that Jesus went up a mountain to present this discourse, similar to when Moses was on Mount Sinai, and that it was recorded by Matthew as a gathering of Jesus' teachings on various topics. Gregg analyzes each beatitude and applies it to the spiritual condition of individuals, emphasizing that God's values should be adopted to find true happiness. Finally, he clarifies that the Sermon on the Mount is not meant for a particular denomination, but as a prescriptive and blessed category for all who embrace its teachings.
