The Sermon on the Mount QUOTES

1 " Mercy unearned undeserved, unnecessary. If it isn't all of those it isn't Mercy.

If you think people have to earn it, deserve it, or it is necessary to do it, you have lost the mystery of Mercy and forgiveness "

― Richard Rohr , The Sermon on the Mount

2 " When you put the Gospels in someone's life who hasn't walked any journeys yet, who hasn't lost, suffered, longed, and thirsted for anything, they will use it for power - I promise you. For personal power, reputational power, economic power, because that's where the ego always goes. We will use God for our own purposes which is the ultimate idolatry. But if you have made the journey into powerless somehow, I will be happy to put the gospel in your hands. "

― Richard Rohr , The Sermon on the Mount
