Pope Shenouda III
Do you think that the Sermon on the Mount (Matt.5-7) is
the only sermon of the Lord during over three years? This is unbelievable. The Lord's words have not gone astray; the disciples kept them in their hearts, ears and minds. From the treasure of their good hearts, from their sacred memories, they brought out the Lord's sayings and entrusted them to the Church under the heading of 'Tradition’ or 'The Apostolic Entrustment. The Holy Spirit taught them everything and reminded them of everything the Lord had said, according to His true promise (John.14: 26).
