"Opinion has been much divided concerning the design, scope, and
application of the Sermon on the Mount. Most commentators have seen
in it an exposition of Christian ethics. Men such as the late Count
Tolstoi have regarded it as the setting forth of a "golden rule"
for all men to live by. Others have dwelt upon its dispensational
bearings, insisting that it belongs not to the saints of the
present dispensation but to believers within a future millennium.
Two inspired statements, however, reveal its true scope. In Matthew
5:1, 2, we learn that Christ was here teaching His disciples. From
Matthew 7:28, 29, it is clear that He was also addressing a great
multitude of the people. Thus it is evident that this address of
our Lord contains instruction both for believers and unbelievers
alike." Arthur Walkington Pink was an English Christian evangelist
and Biblical scholar known for his staunchly Calvinist and
Puritan-like teachings. Though born to Christian parents, prior to
conversion he migrated into a Theosophical society (an occult
gnostic group popular in England during that time), and quickly
rose in prominence within their ranks. His conversion came from his
father's patient admonitions from Scripture. It was the verse,
Proverbs 14:12, 'there is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but
the end thereof are the ways of death, ' which particularly struck
his heart and compelled him to renounce Theosophy and follow Jesus.
