As Jesus brings His sermon to a close in the chapter 7 of Matthew, we see the conclusion of His description of what this new kingdom will look like. The source of judgment is not earthly, but heavenly. Jesus closes with the charge for His listeners to live out all He's spoken of not simply listen to a new moral teaching. Join us as we explore the "call to action" from the Sermon on the Mount.

Having prepared their hearts to develop different attitudes that mirror His character, Jesus invites His followers to employ those qualities in their choices, in their actions, and in their hearts. He challenges them to obey without seeking the endorsement of their fellow man, but rather to trust that their pure motives are seen by an all-knowing God. In this text, Jesus addresses the anxiety we feel when we care too deeply for what others think. Seek Him first and His righteousness and all the things we need will be provided.

Jesus is preaching to a group of people that likely never considered themselves to be blessed. In Matthew chapter 5, Jesus continues to show us a picture of His “upside down kingdom.” This crowd who had been mourning, marginalized, and without a physical inheritance is now hearing that the kingdom of heaven is theirs and that they can see God. This blessing not only brings them a new perspective, but it also helps them to know that they will be able to live out the rest of the sermon on the mount. When we know we have received a blessing, it completely changes how we see everything.

In first-century Judea, Rome became the occupying force and Herod was just a client king of the Emperor. Caesar was king. He was revered, had his way, and no one dared trample on his authority. With that backdrop of experience, with all the aggravations that brought, the Jews longed for their promised Messiah - a King who would rule over all kings forever. It seemed odd that a crazy man in crazy clothes would be the herald of such a promised King and yet John the baptizer's words, "Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand" was audacious and in the face of those in power. Could this man, Jesus of Nazareth be THAT King?

As we’ve talked about the past few weeks, the Holy Spirit transforms us as individuals as we continue to live in rhythm and walk in step with Him. But what happens when an entire group of people, the church, live in rhythm with the Holy Spirit and are dependent upon Him? In our text today, the Holy Spirit encouraged the believers to speak God’s word with boldness, despite the threats and the risks. As we will study today, there’s a direct connection between our collective dependence on the Holy Spirit and an outpouring of love and hope in the church and to the world.

It’s amazing how God takes things we understand from a physical perspective and uses them to teach us deeply spiritual truths that are hard to see with our eyes, but easy to identify when we allow the Holy Spirit to guide us through it. Today’s passage reminds us again that though we live in the flesh, our real battle is in a different realm. While it is internal in nature, it is eternal in its impact. Paul challenges us to take up arms in a spiritual battle that will ultimately lead to our refinement in the Spirit.
