We are pleased to share with you this excerpt from the updated-language edition of Studies in the Sermon on the Mount from the Oswald Chambers Library.1 It is our hope that this reading will fuel your passion to know and love Jesus Christ, the living Word, and further your appreciation for the teaching of God’s written Word and the application of its truth in all of life.

These Bible studies on Matthew 5–7 were first given by Chambers at the League of Prayer’s annual summer convention in Perth, Scotland, in July 1911. They were published as articles in 1912, and as a book in 1915 by God’s Bible School, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Consistent with all of his work, Chambers reminds us that our focus must be on God alone and not on those among whom we live.
