“When Jesus=CAME DOWN
From the mountain=great crowds followed him”

What PRECEDED the gospel=
Today=is Jesus’ famous
SERMON ON THE MOUNT=and the BEATITUDES
About how a person can be=TRULY BLESSED
He spoke further on=
Almsgiving=Treasures=Worry=
And JUDGING OTHERS=as well as
THE GOLDEN RULE

BUT BY THEIR ACTION=
They deny him”

Jesus comes DOWN
From the mountain=after
The SERMON ON THE MOUNT
He is then APPROACHED=by
A leper=asking to be HEALED
He-Jesus=SAW THE NEED

In the faith=BE COURAGEOUS=be strong
Do everything in love”
