THE KINGDOM OF GOD — YOU SHALL NOT MURDER
We have reached the section of the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus begins to unpack part of the Old Testament law, showing how He brings it to fulfillment. He begins with the first of the ten commandments that have to do with “loving our neighbor.” That is, “You shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13). Jesus shows how this goes much deeper than just physical murder. It has to do with hating another without cause, as well as demeaning and dehumanizing another. Jesus is always about bringing reconciliation and wholeness! This is part of the way that our light shines before men. And the only way we can fulfill His Word, which we all fall short of(!), is by receiving the new creation heart that Jesus gifts us! As we live from Christ within, we can treat every human being around us with honor, dignity, and respect. Join us!
