Matthew Volume Two (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781329255500)

Matthew Chapter Five begins the longest discourse of Christ recorded in Scripture. It is commonly called the Sermon on the Mount. The Beatitudes which preface that sermon challenge us with the highest ethical and spiritual standards possible. The whole chapter is convicting because it explodes human conceptions of righteousness while exposing the hypocrisy of self-righteousness. This lengthy exposition of Matthew Five seeks to understand and apply God's high ad holy standards for the purposes which Christ intended. We must come to the realization that our very best is far short of God's demands. This serves the purpose of driving us to Christ who alone can satisfy the righteous expectations of God and who can develop in the believer an appreciation for true holiness.
