Real and Fake
Jesus ends the Sermon on the Mount with some more strong warnings. He warns His listeners about people who claim to be followers of Him, but don’t live it out.

Seek and Find
In these next sections, Jesus invites us to seek good things from the Father. He tells us what the path to the Kingdom of Heaven looks like. And He also warns us of the alternative path we could take in life – and the consequences of following it.
Judge Rightly
Everyone knows Christians aren’t supposed to judge others, right? Wrong. Jesus calls us to judge others, but within certain parameters. I lay out these guidelines in this next post on the Sermon on the Mount.
Humility Honored
God calls us to walk in humility. In Matthew 6, Jesus lays down three examples of times to be humble and not arrogant like the religious leaders. He talks a lot about how God honors and rewards those who are humble and look to Him.
Higher Standard
In His own words, Jesus came to fulfill the law. And He calls us to fulfill the Spirit of the Law. What does that mean? In short, we’re called to a higher standard of living than the world. Take a look at what Jesus said here with me.
