A Path Forward: Yes & No

Join Pastor DJay’s Mid-Week teaching on Matthew 5:33-37 with the message titled "A Path Forward: Yes & No."Jesus said, "Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil." Why does "anything more than this" come from evil? One reason is that swearing oaths can be a form of verbal manipulation. By swearing upon something, rather than simply saying we will or will not do it, we are short-circuiting the other person's discernment and decision making process. This simple teaching from Jesus is a timely reminder for us to practice honesty and humility in the midst of another toxic and argumentative election cycle.
