Hello there,
There are varying views held as to the place and purpose of the Sermon on the Mount, but they can be reduced to two headings:-
1) The Sermon on the Mount is the great outline of Christian practice and applies to the Church today.
2) The Sermon on the Mount does not apply to the church of today, but constitutes the laws of the Kingdom which is yet to be set up on the earth.
Q) Which of these opinions do you hold, and why?
Q) Is there yet another view you can share?
Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris
