from Anchored Truth · host Justin Marbury
Jesus came as Messiah, to be sure. He came to save the world from sin and restore the creation from the corruption of the Fall, no doubt. But Jesus also came to reform the thinking of God's people. Nowhere is this more clear than in the Sermon on the Mount where we read his words, "You've heard it said...but I say..." These are words of correction, or reformation. Jesus was a reformer. And if we are going to understand him correctly we have to hear him in this way. That Jesus came, in part, to correct prevailing assumptions about God and His ways that were just wrong.
