Sermon on the Mountain
The descendants of Abraham once again found themselves drawn to a mountain to hear the word of the Lord. But this time, the incarnate Son of God was seated before them—audibly speaking, teaching, and sharing His Torah. Words that are commonplace in Christianity today fell like nuclear bombs, transforming the hearts and minds of the sons and daughters of Abraham gathered there. Those who knew the Torah of Moses were now faced with a new way to approach the Torah, the heart of God, and the Kingdom of Heaven—revealed by the Son of God Himself.
