Jesus' Sermon on the Mount and His Confrontation with the World Quotes

“Since this is God’s universe there can be no higher “blessing” than to be approved by God. We must ask ourselves whose blessing we diligently seek. If God’s blessing means more to us than the approval of loved ones no matter how cherished, or of colleagues no matter how influential, then the beatitudes will speak to us very personally and deeply.”
― D.A. Carson, Jesus's Sermon on the Mount and His Confrontation with the World: A Study of Matthew 5-10
