The account of the Sermon on the Mount is given in Matthew chapters 5-7. This sermon of our Lord represents the longest segment of Jesus' teaching recorded in the gospels, and the most astounding. Indeed, "And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at His doctrine: For He taught as one having authority, and not as the scribes" (Matthew 7:28-29).In An Exposition of the Sermon on the Mount, the late Christian writer, A.W. Pink (1886-1952) undertakes a careful study of our Lord's warnings, exhortations and promises found in this section of Scripture. The covered topics include The Beatitudes, ministry, murder, adultery, prayer, fasting, serving God, anxiety, judgment, grace, The Golden Rule, salvation, and false prophets. The most arresting portion of the sermon, the testing of Christian profession and false profession, are treated last. This is a highly recommended work and one which gives glory to Christ while challenging a man to "examine himself."
