Book Description

June 1, 1984
The Sermon on the Mount is not a code of ethics or of morals; it is a description of what Christians are meant to be. In Studies in the Sermon on the Mount, D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones offers a comprehensive exposition of one of the best known but often misunderstood passages in the Bible. With characteristic wisdom, he keeps one eye on Scripture and the other on the world as he explains Christs teaching to modern-day believers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Studies in the Sermon on the Mount August 30, 2001
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
What a book! Pick up your Bible and read Matthew chapters 5 through 7, then pick up this book and let God change your life! After reading this book if your life is not changed, you are not listening to that Still Small Voice; you are not hearing the Quiet Knocking on your life's door! Lloyd-Jones fully explains in simple yet complete detail the Beattitudes in particular, and the full body of Jesus' sermon in general (as he does in all his books compiled so far). Read this book, and your spirit will become poor; you will mourn sin, and will feel comfort; you will know how to be meek; you will hunger and thirst for righteousness, and know how to be filled with more; you will know how and why to be merciful, and mercy will come your way; your heart will be purified, and you will see God working in the here and now; you will understand how to make peace; and, because you're "doing the righteousness," persecution WILL come your way!

Read this book, and you just might begin living the life you were called to live when you first became a Christian!

5.0 out of 5 stars Masterful Exposition December 16, 1999
By wkb
Format:Paperback
If you want to understand the Sermon on the Mount this is the book to read. D. Martin Lloyd-Jones has a masterful command of the scriptures and will keep you turning pages well into the night. I cannot imagine a better treatment of Jesus's most famous sermon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Take the Sermon on the Mount to a new level June 18, 1999
Format:Paperback
I was first introduced to this book by Bible teacher John MacArthur. He considered D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones as the author that has most influenced his life. After reading SSM I agree with MacArthur -- this is one of the most gifted and Spirit-led authors of the 21st century. This book will help you see the depth of the Beatitudes and much, much more. There are few more powerful Christian books than this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life Changing November 28, 2005
By PMB
Format:Paperback
I was raised in a "Christian" household but realize now that the behaviors shown were not at all Christian. It is one thing to quote a bible verse for every situation you find yourself, it is another to live the way Christ instructed.

The first chapters of this book freed me to believe again that Christianity is not just the ability to quote verse. Lloyd-Jones acknowledged all my skepticism because of the behavior I had seen Christians exhibit all my life. I found myself nodding and saying "yes, this is SO true." And it opened my heart for the truth of what Jesus had to say.

This book made me realize that I can call myself a Christian but what is truly in my heart and demonstrated in my behavior calls me something other.

I keep my student bible close by as he references many different parts and I would often find myself leaving his book to read his references. I try to read a chapter a day. I highlight, I make notes and when I'm done, I'm going to start again. Along with this book and my bible, I pray. Lloyd-Jones made me realize that I cannot exhibit Christ-like behavior of my own free will - it is only through Christ that this can happen - it is not natural behavior. My prayer is that others will see the change in me and ask me about it so I can be a light unto this world.

Additionally, I really haven't had much use for the Old Testament but I am eager to read and understand the entire bible now that this book has shown me that Jesus referenced the OT Scriptures that he expounded on them and that He actually fulfilled the prophesy of the Scriptures. I can no longer believe that the OT is irrelevant.

You will have questions answered and know what it means to accept Christ in your heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Exposition of the Word of God November 29, 2002
Format:Paperback
This book was written from a series of sermons brought by the author on Matthew 5-7. This man, Martin LLoyd-Jones, was truly anointed by God in his delivery and writing on the Beatitudes. The book should be read by all in the modern Charismatic/Pentecostal Church in order to truly understand what God's anointing on a person really is, and not the unmitigated rubbish emanating today from that quarter. It is absolutely brilliant, even after a second or third reading!

5.0 out of 5 stars Read it over and over and over... June 28, 2001
Format:Paperback
This book is absolutely amazing. I had studied the sermon on the mount a little bit prior to reading this, but Lloyd-Jones collection of sermons will truly inspire and challenge you in your daily life. Everyone should read this, and read it again. I read this in one sitting for the first time, but I would recommend reading it at a slower pace, perhaps a chapter per week because it is very profound and challenging material. Great book for a bible study.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life changing reading for a believer March 4, 2006
Format:Paperback
Doctor Martyn Lloyd-Jones has preached approximately 60 sermons that makeup this book. Fortunately the writing has not removed the impact of the preaching that has produced this work. I strive to share this book with brothers and sisters in Christ for it is my belief that every member of the Body of Christ would be mightily impacted through the reading and studying of this work. The reading of this book has caused me to purchase additional writings by this author, such as; his series on Romans, and the series on Ephesians. I was first introduced to the author when I was given a two volume biography of Doctor Lloyd-Jones by Iain Murray ... another enriching experience.
