The Lord's Prayer and the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew's Gospel by Charles Nathan Ridlehoover Pdf

Charles Nathan Ridlehoover examines the Lord's Prayer in Matthew's Gospel, focusing on the prayer's centrality and showing how this centrality affects our reading of the Sermon on the Mount and subsequently, the prayer itself. Ridlehoover argues that the Lord's Prayer is structurally, lexically, and thematically central to the Sermon on the Mount, and the means through which disciples of Jesus are empowered to live out the kingdom righteousness it defines. In turn, the Sermon on the Mount clarifies what the answer to the petitions of the Lord's Prayer might look like in the life of the disciple of Jesus. Whilst the centrality of the Lord's Prayer has been noted by previous commentators, this centrality and its intended purpose has not hitherto been defined or examined in great depth. Ridlehoover fills this gap with a closely argued and in-depth study, ranging from methodology and the structure of the prayer itself to examining the Father, will, forgiveness and evil petitions, and the relevance of word and deed for hearers and doers. Ridlehoover's examination of the relationship between the Sermon and Prayer advances studies in compositional criticism and intratextuality.

The Beatitudes and the Lords Prayer by John C. Martin III Pdf

Reverend John Martin, III diligently and faithfully expounds upon the most profound words of the Christ. You will find John Martin loyal to Jesus and faithful to Matthews God-breathed text. It is as if Reverend Martin forces the text through the winepress and brings forth a rich glass of royal vintage that brings honor to the King of vineyard. Pastor Martin is faithful to his maxim that theology is practical. Maintaining his high view of the church and his love for the Lords sheep, John Martin imparts the Lords Prayer and the Beatitudes in a manner that exhorts the Christian, This is the way, walk ye in it. Is Martin a moralist as so many who take on these passages? God forbid! Martin is no moralist. He presents the beatitudes of Jesus as the characteristics of those who have partaken of the new birth. I have heard these sermons. They are robust and powerful. Reverend Martin has the fire of Knox, the precision of Calvin, the compassion of Luther, the humility of Edwards, and the potency of Rushdoony. May our gracious Lord bless your understanding of His word as presented by His servant, John. Rev. Gerald Tritle

Jesus' Sermon on the Mount by Jack R. Lundbom Pdf

The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) is the best-known repository of the teachings of Jesus and one of the most studied. Amid the considerable erudition expended on the Sermon, however, Jack R. Lundbom argues that it has proven too easy to deflect or disregard the main thrust of the Sermon, which he characterizes as a mandate to holy living and a greater righteousness. Through careful attention to the structure of Matthews Gospel and the place of the Sermon within it, keen sensitivity to the patterns and themes of Israelite prophecy, and judicious comparisons with other Jewish and rabbinic literature, Lundbom elucidates the meaning of the Sermon and its continuity with Israels prophetic heritage as well as the best of Jewish teaching. By deft appeal to Christian commentators on the Sermon, Lundbom brings its most important themes to life for the contemporary reader, seeking always to understand what the greater righteousness to which the Sermon summons might mean for us today.

Reading the Sermon on the Mount by Charles H. Talbert Pdf

Talbert concludes that only when the text is read in three contexts--the whole of Matthew, the whole of the New Testament, and the entire biblical plot--can the Sermon on the Mount make a contribution to decision making.

The Sermon on the Mount by Carl G. Vaught Pdf

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.

The Sermon on the Mount by Rev. John C. Martin Pdf

This book consists of thirty-eight linear expositions of the text of Scripture called “The Sermon on the Mount” (Matt. 5-7). Also included is a fresh translation of the text from the original language. All thirty-eight of these units were originally sermons preached at a local congregation in Tyler, Texas. It is hoped that the words of our Lord Jesus Christ will receive another “look” by men and women and children; and that the Spirit of Christ will use this book as one little “piece” in the proliferation of a new Reformation – to the glory of Christ and His Kingdom. Rev. John C. Martin www.cpctyler.com
