WELCOME! Today, as last Sunday, we find ourselves upon the mountain with Jesus and His disciples, for that is what we are, to hear Jesus Word of life and let Him teach us about the Kingdom of God. Jesus moves from the Beatitudes to a definition of His Disciples as "the salt of the earth" and "the light of the world." Salt must be salty to have any value and a light must give light in order to be useful. Now Jesus turns to Himself. He is not come to abolish God’s Word, He is come to fulfill all of Holy Scripture. This means that Disciples are not to trifle with God’s Word. No minimization or ignoring of God’s commandments. No teaching our children and grand children that the Word is not important and most important. Sadly, we give great teaching by our own ignoring and minimizing. But, He promises that "whoever does God’s commandments (i.e. honors them and relies upon Christ alone for Salvation) will be called great in the kingdom of heaven." Pray God that He makes us great!
