The Sermon on the Mount: Building the Foundation | Matthew 5:1–10

In this episode of Kingdom Kickback , we slow down and begin our study through the Sermon on the Mount. Before rushing through the text, we look at the setting in Matthew 4:23–25 , then step into Matthew 5:1–10 and break down the Beatitudes what Jesus means by being blessed, being poor in spirit, mourning, meekness, hungering and thirsting for righteousness, showing mercy, being pure in heart, making peace, and being persecuted for righteousness’ sake. We also look at how Scripture helps explain Scripture through passages including: 📖 Matthew 4:23–25 📖 Matthew 5:1–10 📖 Psalm 4:7 📖 Psalm 37:11 📖 Isaiah 61:1–3 📖 John 4:9–38 📖 Romans 8:12–17 The goal is simple: slow down, read the text in context, and let the Bible speak for itself. This is about laying the foundation before we move forward through Jesus’ teaching. A special thank you to Kingdom Coffee for allowing us to gather, fellowship, and have these conversations around God’s Word. And thank you to Albert and JJ for sitting down with us, opening up Scripture, and sharpening one another through the Word. Iron sharpens iron. — Proverbs 27:17 🎙️ Kingdom Kickback 📖 Scripture.
