Week 10 | The Sermon on the Mount (1995)
This week, we’re in Week 10 of a series Darrell taught on the Sermon on the Mount in 1995. In this sermon, Darrell discusses the extraordinary claims that Christians make about Jesus, as well as the extraordinary claims Jesus makes about ordinary people. Darrell explains that Jesus uses the metaphors of salt and light to reveal his perspective on the condition of the world left to itself—that it has a tendency to spoil and go dark. He says Jesus calls Christians to be the "salt of the earth" and the "light of the world," with the role of arresting social decay and dispelling darkness through their character and influence. Darrell challenges the church to take responsibility, rather than just blaming society. The key, Darrell emphasizes, is for Christians to remain close to Christ, the true salt and light, who enables them to shine for the sake of the world.
