The Sermon on The Mount Series

Here are all of the links to articles, sermons, sermon notes, and everything else related to our long discussion and look at the Sermon on the Mount.  This is has been a fascinating and enlightening look at the teachings of Jesus.  The connecting strand through it all is the gospel.  The gospel is what Jesus lays out and applies in these many passages.  For over three chapters, Jesus discusses the gospel.  Let us not forget that at the root of our faith is not moralism, religion, or cheap grace, but the gospel.
