WORD PICTURES | FULL OBEDIENCE & A PURE HEART
1. Word Pictures
a) The Sermon on the Mount is rich in word pictures that we could regard as parables. However there are a dozen other parables in the sermon on the mount that are worthy to take note of (Matthew chapters 5-7).
2. Full Obedience And A Pure Heart
a) God requires obedience of us, and repentance from disobedience, if we are going to be saved by his grace. He also requires a pure and genuine heart, not a shallow outward show and mere lip service.
i) Tasteless salt (Matthew 5:13).
ii) Light of the world (Matthew 5:14-16).
iii) A trumpet in the street (Matthew 6:2-3).
iv) The market merchant's measure (Matthew 7:2).
v) A log in your eye (Matthew 7:3-4).
vi) Fruit trees fruiting (Matthew 7:16-20).
