Mountain Top Life Message:

Jesus promised to make His disciples fishers of men. We cannot forget that these men were earlier on fishermen; hence the need for Jesus to make them know what is expected of them as they began to operate among men in their individual capacity as proclaimers of the kingdom of God. This was the beginning of His teachings to those He would hand over the commission to (His disciples).

Jesus purposely avoided the crowd from coming to him; hence, he went and sat down on a mountainside in order to have ample time in teaching His disciples. The Beatitudes is the first and longest message of Jesus that we have in the gospel. Before now, Jesus was announcing that the kingdom of God was at hand, calling people to repentance. He needed to equip His immediate aides, who having known the demands of the Kingdom, shall be able to live accordingly and also teach others to do the same.

The sermon tells us how righteous we must be to enter the Kingdom. It is a teaching that brings out the qualities and character of a true candidate of heaven, fit to receive the full blessings of the kingdom. It shows us the perfect picture of a true disciple of Christ who is qualified to be a joint heir of the promise.

Jesus addressed those who are poor in the spirit and gave them the assurance that they would gain eternity in heaven. Those who mourn shall have the assurance of divine comfort by the Spirit of the Lord (Isaiah 61:3). The meek shall inherit the earth. He stressed that those who hunger and thirst after righteousness shall be filled. As many as are merciful shall receive mercy, while only those who are pure in heart shall see the Lord. The peacemakers shall be called sons of God, because Jesus is Himself the Prince of Peace.

He rounded off by making His disciples realise that they shall be persecuted for righteousness sake, even as older prophets were persecuted, but enjoined them to rejoice because they have a reward in heaven. This message is still relevant to us today, if truly we are children of God, who are looking forward to make heaven and see God at last.
