Matthew: Come Meet the King - Honesty & Humility: Endanered Virtues (Matthew 5:33-42) CreeksideDM

Steve Smith :: Creekside Church :: Sunday, May 3, 2020
Jesus taught followers to "make no oath at all…” and to "not resist an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.” Jesus’ teachings in Matthew 5:33-42 weren’t a ban on all oaths or self-defense, but rhetorical overstatements designed to help us evaluate our priorities. In Pastor Steve’s message Jesus reveals two additional manifestations of kingdom righteousness—one declaring truth and the other denying self—that challenge and compel believers to greater obedience as well as call unbelievers to repentance.
