The Sermon on the Mount is considered as one of the most profound and influential
teachings of Jesus Christ. It is a grand collection of ethical teachings that are found in
the Gospel of Matthew, chapters 5-7. The Sermon on the Mount is Jesus' primary
teaching on how to live a life of righteousness that pleases God. In this piece, we will
examine the primary teaching of Jesus on the Sermon on the Mount and how it affects
our lives today.
Jesus' primary teaching on the Sermon on the Mount is to seek first the kingdom of
God. He emphasizes the importance of prioritizing the things of God over earthly
concerns. Jesus begins the Sermon on the Mount by listing a series of blessings and
virtues that characterize a true disciple of Christ. He teaches that the poor in spirit,
those who mourn, the meek, the peacemakers, and the pure in heart will inherit the
kingdom of God.

Jesus is known for his numerous miracles during his time on earth. These miracles
were not just acts of power, but also displays of his divine nature as the Son of God.
Here is a list of some of the most significant miracles performed by Jesus.
1. Turning water into wine – This was the first recorded miracle of Jesus, which took
place at a wedding in Cana. Jesus turned water into wine when the wedding party ran
out, showing his power over nature.
2. Healing the blind man – The Gospel records several instances of Jesus healing blind
men by restoring their sight. One such miracle took place in Bethsaida, where Jesus
spat on the man’s eyes and he was able to see.
3. Raising Lazarus from the dead – One of the most remarkable of all Jesus’ miracles
was the raising of Lazarus from the dead. Jesus raised Lazarus four days after his
death, showing his power over death itself.
4. Healing the sick: Jesus is said to have healed countless people throughout his
ministry, including those with leprosy, blindness, and other debilitating illnesses.
9. Jesus raised the ruler's daughter from the dead (Matthew 9:18-26).
While he was saying this, a synagogue leader came and knelt before him and said, “My
daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live.” Jesus got
up and went with him, and so did his disciples. Just then a woman who had been
subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his
cloak. She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.” Jesus turned and
saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman
was healed at that moment. When Jesus entered the synagogue leader’s house and
saw the noisy crowd and people playing pipes, he said, “Go away. The girl is not dead
but asleep.” But they laughed at him. After the crowd had been put outside, he went in
and took the girl by the hand, and she got up. News of this spread through all that
region.
