The value of yourself is really important, it decides who people think you are and how much you worth then what if a person do not has his value is going to be? He is going to be “thrown out and trampled underfoot” . The question here is what did Jesus mean when he similed salt, light and human’s value? Salt is necessary for survival of all living organisms, including human; light is also important, thanks to the light, that all things on earth can exist, for example, plants use sunlight to perform photosynthesis functions, nutrient metabolism, in the history of human development, after fire was discovered and the light bulb was invented that led human society to modern civilization.

    The Roman church had not yet been visited and had no New Testament because the gospels were not yet being circulated in their final written form. Thus, this letter may well have been the first piece of Christian literature the Roman believers had seen. In Roman culture to choose to be a servant was unthinkable. Paul was a Roman citizen but chose to be entirely dependent on and abide in Christ Jesus (Romans 1:1). Paul’s impact was made known because of his citizenship and willingness to serve and obey Jesus…

    The Sermon on the Mount is a interesting piece of writing that gives out a lot of crazy ideas on how people should live. I can not see anyone who is human living by these laws at all. On top of that in the Sermon on the Mount Jesus said that if you fail to live by these rules even once you go to hell. I can not agree with this at…

    The reading of the Gospel of Matthew has many lessons that I personally can connect or relate to my life. More specifically, the reading applied to my life when Jesus talked about faith. God has made it clear to me and has reawakened my whole body and soul by saying, “ye have little faith”, (Matthew 8:26). In other words, over the last few weeks my faith was dropping drastically, because of doubt and fear. The life I was living in and the challenges that I accepted were giving me a negative sense of failure.…

    II. The Sermon on the Mount is not a new law with more rigid commandments than Moses’s law. Therefore, I disagree with the following statement: “Some read the Sermon on the Mount as a new law with more stringent (rigid) commandments than the law taught by Moses.” Jesus said that he didn’t come to bring a new law but to fulfill the old (Mathew 5: 17). There is a historical continuity between the Old Law and the Sermon.…
