I hope this experience of examining the Sermon on the Mount, the greatest sermon, has been a beneficial experience for you. Jesus taught with authority because He is the greatest authority. He is the very Word of God which became flesh and dwelled among men. He is God the Son.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (John 1:1)
14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)

As I end this book let me remind the reader that there is coming a day of judgment when all mankind must stand before Jesus Christ and give an account of their lives.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire. (Rev. 20:12-15)
Those whose names were not found written in the Book of Life are all those who did not believe in Jesus Christ in their lifetimes. Those who names are written in the Book of Life are Christians who believe in and trusted Jesus Christ in life as their Lord and Savior.
The final result of unbelievers will be to suffer eternal torment in the lake of fire. The final result of Christians is everlasting life in the new heaven and new Earth.
He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.” (Matt. 3:36)
My urgent prayer for you, the reader, is for you to repent of your sins (turn away from them) and receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ who alone can save you from the judgment and wrath to come.
3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. (Luke 13:3)
31 So they said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” (Acts 16:31)
I therefore invite you to receive Jesus Christ in faith as your Lord and Savior. I also invite you to read and daily study the Word of God and pray to Christ our only High Priest and mediator between God and man. Don’t put this off. Do it today because “… now is the day of salvation.”
“In an acceptable time I have heard you,
And in the day of salvation I have helped you. “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” (Isa. 49:8)
Amen
