Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from The Sermon on the Mount: A Practical Study of Chapters V-VII of St. Matthew's Gospel
On the other hand it is an unwarranted restriction when the attempt is made to exclude the Gospel entirely from our minds in studying the sermon. The admission that it treats mainly of the Law by no means implies such a restriction of its meaning. Nothing is more needful for a correct understanding of the Scriptures than a proper distinction between Law and Gospel. We can understand neither in its pure import and purpose when we confound the one with the other. To tell people what God requires of us in the ten commandments, and then teach them that their only hope of eternal life must rest on their fulfill ment of these requirements, leads to despair. It may be a correct statement of the demands which the Creator justly makes upon His intelligent creatures, but it is a false presentation of the way of salvation revealed in Holy Scripture. Even when the Law of the Lord is studied, we need the Gospel in order to understand the Lord's will and to walk in the way by which He would lead us to the blessedness of eternal life.
