Jesus' sermon on the plain highlights genuine faith versus legalistic religion. Jesus taught that a life characterized by humility, suffering, and self-denial leads to real happiness. Jesus' teaching opposed the prideful, self-righteous attitudes of the Pharisees as he encouraged sacrificial love as the highest priority. As we learn to give like Christ, we'll experience God meeting our needs in a real way.
