RE

Today we will be exploring the question: What did Jesus teach his followers about how they should live?

 

One day Jesus saw the crowds following him, so he sat down on a hillside and began to teach them. These teachings have come to be known as the Sermon on the Mount and are recorded in the gospel of Matthew and Luke. It contains some of Jesus’ best known teaching and instruction for living. The Sermon on the Mount is often summarised as ‘Do to others what you would have them do to you’ as most of what Jesus taught in this message was about personal relationships and how people should behave towards one another. See the resource below, which will help you to answer today’s question.
