Studies in the Sermon On The Mount

Author favorite by Oswald Chambers, author of My Utmost for His Highest

One of the worlds most beloved Christian authors gives us insight into one of the most beloved passages of Scripture. This devotional study of the Sermon on the Mount is doctrine in work clothes, truth become reality, redemption expressed. And, as he does in all his works, Oswald Chambers reminds us that our focus must be on God alone and not on those among whom we live.

This series on Matthew 5-7 was first presented during Chambers' teaching ministry in the U.S. in 1907. Since then, it has become a favorite among all his writings for its timeless truths and relevance to the daily Christian life. Once you delve into it, you'll better understand Jesus' teachings on what living really means and find new ways to apply Scripture to your daily life.

As Chambers says, - God remakes us, puts His Holy Spirit in us, then the Holy Spirit applies the principles to us and enables us to work out by His guidance.-
