SCRIPTURE READING: Matthew 5:21-32

from God Still Speaks Today Hosted by Lloyd Tremain

Jesus is beginning to bring the Jewish mindset into alignment with God’s thinking. For so long they have been distracted by so many rules and laws that they had taken their eyes off of why the commandment was given in the first place. Every original commandment was designed to help people connect with God’s heart. When people put their own twist on what God said, it will change the value and meaning of the truth He was conveying. Jesus was “righting the ship” so to speak, or realigning people’s misunderstood perspectives on God’s truth. Have you heard people say things that you knew were not exactly said the way God said it? How will you emerge with the belt of truth tightly wrapped around you to keep your pants from falling to the floor when you stand before God?
