Location
1. The Mount of Beatitudes is located on a hill overlooking the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee.
2. It has a spectacular view of the sea.
3. It has great acoustics.
Historical Background
1. This sermon is the most complete and famous teaching Christ preached.
2. It’s 3 chapters long and is found in Matthew 5-7.
3. In the same way the Law was given on Mt. Sinai, many theologians see the Sermon on the Mount as the summary of the New Covenant.
4. In this sermon, Christ clarifies many Old Testament meanings and misinterpretations by constantly saying, “You have heard it said, but I say to you.”
5. The view from the Sermon on the Mount is spectacular and provided a perfect backdrop for Christ’s hearers to see as they contemplated His powerful message.
6. It was no accident that Christ chose this setting as He used nature and creation to aid in much of His teachings.
7. A Byzantine church was erected here in the 4th century and was used until the 7th century. Its ruins have been discovered just a little downhill from the present church here today.
8. Today, the Church of the Beatitudes is an octagonal building located on this site. It was built in 1938 for a Franciscan order of nuns. The eight sides of the church represent the eight beatitudes shown in Latin in the upper windows.

The Sermon on the Mount in the Bible
1. In the 8 beatitudes, everything is flipped or reversed from what most of us would understand as blessings.
Matt. 5:1-12: Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down, his disciples came to him. 2 And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying: 3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
2. Christ addressed the true essence of anger, adultery, divorce, keeping our word, how to treat our enemies, giving, prayer, and what genuine salvation looks like.
3. He taught about storing our riches in heaven and how to handle worry and stress.
Matthew 6:19-20, Matthew 6:25-34:
4. Christ ended His message with a sober warning about the importance of obeying and living out His words, not just listening to them.
Matthew 7:24-29:
Faith Lesson from the Sermon on the Mount
1. Christ began His sermon by clarifying the principles of true blessings in life. Do we understand each principle and are we living them out?
2. Christ focused on the heart attitude behind His commands. Do we understand that Christ looks at our hearts and motives for why we obey or don’t obey His commands?
3. Christ stressed the importance of storing our riches in heaven and living for eternity. Do we care about our treasures in heaven or are we mainly just focused on this life and the treasures it has to offer?
4. Christ defined a wise person as one who lived out what He taught. He defined a foolish person as one who heard but did not put into practice what He taught. Do we tend to know what to do but not actually live it out?
5. Are we building our lives on the sand or on the rock? - Авто та транспорт
This will really stick with me: "For those who are saved, this life is the worst it will ever be; for those who are not saved, this life is the best it will ever be." Thanks.
Like i heard a pastor say one time, Born once die twice, Born twice die once
Yes, this message is the Truth.
But even when walking in the Light of God we mustn't become comfortable and feel as if we've Won, because this will make us feel like we don't need to fight as hard, and therefore vulnerable.
Rather, we must all remain Vigilant and Prepared especially when we are closer to God, because the more we strengthen our Relationship with God, the more temptations arise.
Wow that’s a very clear statement & quote about being saved or not saved
Amen!
I’m glad the Catholics have preserved the holy places of our lord’s ministry.
Thank you Todd for putting these historical sites on UA-cam for us who are not able to travel, May Lord the bless your work which God uses to strengthen FAITH of those who are lacking, be well brother & may your father's remembrance be a blessing
Thank you Pastor todd, I pray that one day the Lord will also allow me to see the Holy land in person. Thank you for reminding us of how blessed we are , to highs and lows we always are victorious because of Jesus. ✨
I have prayed for this also
Praise the Lord! Hallelujah! Grace, peace, and love in Jesus Christ Amen.
Amen....❤
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ. Powerful preaching. My Father was a hard worker, poor and humble but full of the Holy Spirit and feared God. I lost my Dad in 2008. He was 77 years and and because of his charity (love) he has many treasures in Heaven. God Bless you from North Carolina.

I think the difference between a believer a non-believer is while both will grieve a death, an unbeliever won't have an absolute comfort or consolation to fall back on, but this is available to a believer.
amen 🙏

המדינה שלנו מלאה באלילים לא קדושים אמן
May I know sir if what Denomination are you?
Is there a high salt content in the Galilee or only after flows down to dead sea?
Where that part I don't know but God uses salt many times in the Bible Jesus say we are the salt of the earth so pretty much God used salt in many ways but we used salt in food cause that what makes it tastes good 😊😊 so I hope this helps

From conception the “Church” was an OFFICIAL sect within Judaism. When you read Acts 1 and if you are familiar with Halakhah Law you will immediately notice that the Church is a legal entity WITHIN Judaism. There are 3 requirements which are met.
Firstly, notice that there are 120 members in this synagogue. Why is this important? It is the exact number of persons in the Halakhah regulations to form a full fledged synagogue. Judaism and Catholicism were born on Shavuot/Pentecost. To this day the Catholic Conclave has a maximum limit of 120 electors to elect the Pope.
Secondly next according to Halakhah regulations there must be a "beit din" (Hebrew court) formed. We see that there is a beit-din and it draws lots and Matthias a disciple is chosen to take over Judas bishopric (episkopen). The first example of Apostolic Succession. So two of the three requirements are met.
The third requirement is that there must be a NASI (prince/temporal) and an AB (father/spiritual) appointed. Curiously Peter is filling both these positions in this beit din. Why?
In 190 BC the Kohan Gadol (jewish high-priest) fell into apostasy and beit-din gadol (Hebrew court) cast a vote of no confidence splitting the Kohan Gadol into two offices the "NASI" and the "AB" within the Beit Din Gadol. Eg Luke ch3 - “high-priesthood was held by Annas and Caiaphas”
Fast forward to Matt16, in this new Beit Din Gadol (70 disciples) Christ has placed His confidence in Peter (the first AB/father/pope meaning papa) by presenting him the Keys to the temple/governance bringing the two offices back into one high priesthood the way it originally was.
The pope has both temporal and spiritual powers. Peter is the NASI prince of the apostles and the AB/pope (Pope meaning papa - meaning father) as you see even today the pope as Peters documented unbroken apostolic successor is both ‘nasi’ and the ‘ab’ in Catholicism.
Rashi/Jewish sage writes a commentary on the priestly role of the steward/vizier of the Davidic Kingdoms. The Keys are the keys of the Temple and Authority. When the Davidic kings were away the steward/vizier was in charge and he wore the keys the King gave him so the citizens knew who he was. The steward is given the sash/robes/keys to the temple because the role is also a priestly role. The keys were then passed onto a successor when that steward died/removed. (Isaiah 22 v15-25)
The Apostles knew exactly what had occurred when Jesus gave Peter the keys. Jesus presents the keys to Peter (Pope/ab) and appoints him/his successors as His royal steward to care for HIs flock until His return. Jesus gave all the Apostles special gifts but He only gave Peter the keys to Temple and governance.
First book of Kings lists all the Kings and the royal steward/vizier is always listed next to the King because in the absence of the King he was in charge of the Kingdom. Christ also renames Peter (the only Apostle renamed) as Abraham and Jacob were renamed by God in preparation for their specific role in salvation history.
Jesus, Son of David rebuilt the davidic kingdom as per 2SamCh7 - He is the King, His mother is Gebirah, Peter/successor Popes are His royal stewards/viziers and the Hebrew court/beit-din is the Magesterium.
Catholicism is not a new religion, it is the legitimate continuation of Temple Judaism (not Rabbinic Judaism). Catholics do not throw out what God has revealed prior and continues to hold that all that is revealed is a single continuous revelation culminating in the Catholic Faith. Jewish priests who followed Jesus brought the temple rituals over: we kept the priests, the altar, the eternal sacrifice, the holy incense, the shewbread, the tabernacle, the sanctuary etc, etc, etc
Ancient Temple Judaism and Catholicism is the same faith in two covenants one old and another new. Catholicism-is in fact “post-Messianic” Judaism.
Jesus created a Melchezidek priesthood (which pre-exists the Aaronic priesthood). This is why all Catholic priests belong to the order of Melchizedek, the fulfilment of the theophany of Melchizedek giving wine/bread to Father Abraham.
I think you totally forgot about the Orthodox? The Pope spilt off from the Orthodox religion which was the religion and yes the Pope started the spilt with the things you described. The Orthodox have mainly kept the original teachings.
If we shouldn't focus on future food and clothes like the birds why do we build houses and churches and not just go live under trees and live in caves or bushes?
Because God is the creator 🙏🙏 he was there before the world was created so it doesn't have nothing to do with cave or rock Satan use evolution to say God is not real and we know that Satan was a liars from the start God will destroy the work of the devil and those that believe that you came from a monkey devil use public school system to get our minds off of God remember let God be true but every man a liars the Bible is real and it no joke those who don't believe in Jesus or his love will end up in hell because they died in their sin but God not willing that any should perish but that All should come to repentance I hope this helps you
That is right if we could see heaven and hell with certainty we would have peace on earth, but no God wants us to have confusion and choose faith with doubt for his own selfish purpose.
Not true because God isn't the author of confusion but of truth and of a sound mind ❤️❤️
Does God use nature or is God Nature?
God is a Creator of All things sure he knows these things right from the start because it say in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth of course he created nature also he made these things and he will restore again the earth beginning at Jerusalem his holy City and rain down heaven on earth when he returns on high with his holy Angel 😇😇🙏🙏💕 glory to his name
@@BuckyMorgan why is the temple mount so special and not mt. Sinai where he appeared the first time?
@@fs3579 God appears to Moses on mt sinal he gave us the ten commandments to live by that why Jesus say if you love me keep my commandments and he say this is My commandments that you loved one another as I have loved you so we need to keep God law to live by i hope this helps you
@@BuckyMorgan yes but you didnt answer my question. We have lost the ark and the tablets. And the temple mount now has a muslim temple on it.
@@fs3579 oh sorry I don't know any of these things I'm just helping
It's rude of you to visit Catholic holy sites whilst abusing the Catholic Church in the same breath. You should not be attending any of those sites paid for, built by and maintained and owned by Catholic at all if this is how you are going to behave. Is this is how you behave as a guest in someone else's house?
I find it funny that in every other Christian denomination they always go after Catholicism. The Protestant reformation was the worst thing to have happened to God’s church. Now we have thousands of different denominations all claiming to be the one true church, but the reality is and will also be the Catholic church being the first founded by Jesus.
Amen
