1 THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT THE DECREES OF THE KING The decrees of the King are Profitable 2 Timothy 3:16-17 The decrees of the King need to be Preached 2 Timothy 2:2 Acts 20:7 2 Timothy 4:1-3 The decrees of the King are Precious: The original Scofield Reference Bible (1909) stated that the Sermon on the Mount clearly has a beautiful moral application to the Christian. The Sermon on the Mount is clearly intended to be a definitive statement of Christ s teaching and should not be pushed aside lightly by unnecessary stricture which would relegate it to unimportant truth. (John Walvoord, Matthew Thy Kingdom Come, p. 45) The decrees of the King contain Principles for all times: Christians of all times: Should recognize our own spiritual bankruptcy Should rejoice in spite of adverse circumstances Should abound in good works Should spend time alone in prayer Should praise the Holy Name of God Should lay up treasures in Heaven Should struggle to defeat sin Should put the Kingdom of God first Should build their lives on God s Word Jesus Himself practiced that which He taught. The moral principles of Christianity are unique in that they have been personally exemplified in the life of Him who taught them. (Leslie G. Thomas) Southern Ridge Church of Christ December,

4 The Light of the World Why Should Christians Let Our Lights Shine? Because light must shine! Only light can overcome darkness John 1:5; 8:12 The need for light in a dark world The power of light How Should Christians Let Our Lights Shine? Our light must shine brightly Psalm 51:9-13 Our light must shine unmistakably 1 Peter 3:15 Our light must shine individually Ephesians 4:16 Our light must shine continuously Hebrews 10:23 Southern Ridge Church of Christ December,
5 THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE KINGDOM The Value of the Old Testament Extreme views with reference to the Old Testament The Standard for God s people today Hebrews 1:1 Acts 3:22-23 Matthew 17:1-5 John 12:49-50 The Old Testament vs. the New Testament Ephesians 2:11-18 Colossians 2:14-17 Romans 7:1-6 The New Covenant is Better (Hebrews 8:6-13) The law & the priesthood were changed (Hebrews 7:12) Christ is the assurance of a better covenant (Hebrews 7:18-22) The first covenant has been removed (Hebrews 10:1-10) The new covenant was effective because of the death of Christ (Hebrews 9:15-17) 4) There is no justification through the old covenant (Galatians 3; 5:1- True Righteousness (Matthew 5:20) The meaning of righteousness ( ) The righteousness of the scribes & Pharisees Southern Ridge Church of Christ December,
