    • R. T. Kendall's verse-by-verse guides you into a deep understanding of the famous passage
    • Discover how, in one short sermon, Jesus delivers a life-time's worth of wisdom

    R T Kendall leaves no word ignored and no verse unexplored in his comprehensive analysis of the most revolutionary, world changing compilation of beliefs and behaviours ever set down in print. Drawing on the wisdom, sermons and scholarship of his predecessor and mentor, Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones, the former minister of Westminster Chapel analyses the chapters of Matthew 5 to 7 known to Christians since the time of St Augustine as 'The Sermon on the Mount'

    5 reasons to read R T Kendall's 'Sermon on the Mount'

    o For an in detail, readable and insightful exploration of Matthew chapters 5-7
    o For a comprehensive analysis of Christianity's core beliefs and behaviours
    o To understand Jesus' 'Sermon on the Mount' verse by verse and step by step
    o To find what Jesus really meant by, and his understanding of, The Kingdom of God
    o To benefit from R T Kendall's devotional writing style and depth of Bible knowledge

    The author of more than 50 bestsellers including 'Totally Forgiving God', 'Did You Think to Pray?' 'Why Jesus Died' and 'A Man After God's Own Heart', R T Kendall opens out the meaning and context of the most influential teachings in Jesus' ministry. Exploring what Jesus meant us to understand and how we were intended to respond, the director of RT Kendall ministries explains what Jesus would have meant by the Kingdom of God - how and when it would come, and your part in bringing it about. He reveals that key to your understanding of what Jesus said is what he meant by the work of the Holy Spirit.

    Although many theologians have delved deeply into Matthew 5-7, few have offered such a comprehensive, up-to-date, exposition accessible to Bible readers, pastors, teachers, preachers and those involved in serious theological study. Dr. Kendall applies a compelling, devotional style of writing to the words of Jesus and guides readers toward putting these teachings to work in their own lives.

    R T Kendall - Sermon on the Mount: highlight quotes

    "The purpose of the Sermon on the Mount is to demonstrate the kind of teaching—and the kind of living with regard to character and conduct — that should govern the people of God through the power of the Holy Spirit.

    "Brokenness is evident when you realize you have no bargaining power with God. You can do only one thing: ask for mercy."

    "To inherit the Kingdom of heaven is therefore to enjoy the blessing and conscious indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit."

    "The purpose of God’s allowing one to suffer is to see one’s own sin — not another’s sin."

    "The definition that, in my opinion, best suits Jesus’ teaching in the Sermon on the Mount, it is this: the rule of the un-grieved Spirit in the believer."

    About The Author

    On one memorable day in 2010, the world watched as 33 Chilean miners were brought to the surface after 69 days trapped underground. Television audiences worldwide watched as the men were literally ‘raised to life’ from under 700 million tons of solid rock. For many days, no one knew if the men were alive or dead. In fact they were living, but were not in the world of the living. It was as though they were in a separate kingdom; a kingdom of darkness, hopelessness and despair. There was nothing they could do to rescue themselves.

    Opening Dr Kendall’s ‘Sermon on the Mount’, Ed Stetzer, president of Lifeway Research reminds readers that, in the Bible, Paul uses this same of imagery to illustrate how God has delivered his children from death into life: “He has rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the Kingdom of the son he loves, in whom we have redemption and forgiveness of sins.” I Colossians 1:13-24 (Holman’s Translation). Stetzer goes on to say that too many followers of Christ have the lost the sense of that dynamic of being rescued, of being transferred from darkness to light, of being raised to life – in this life and for this life.

    Rather, he suggests, Christians see this rescue as somewhere in the future; our final transfer to the eternal kingdom beyond this world. He reminds us that the Kingdom is not only ‘dying and going to heaven’, it is also – and primarily a directive to make alivel the line from the Lord’s Prayer, ‘your will be done on earth as it is in heaven’. Believers must not forget the personal and corporate implications of Christ’s current reign in this world, as well as in the next.

    This is where R T Kendall’s book comes in. With a thorough, verse by verse exploration of Jesus’ major teachings to his followers, he integrates the reality of God’s Kingdom in the here and now with the ministry of God’s spirit under the New Covenant of Christ’s death and resurrection. Stetzer’s hope is that, by better understanding Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount through Kendall’s expansive work, Christians will re-evaluate the presence of God’s Kingdom in their own lives, and be encouraged to seek his Kingdom and bring about its reality, making it a priority in their daily dealings with family, friends, colleagues and community. – Les Ellison
