KINGDOM LIVING In the Sermon on the Mount, we are told how we can live according to Jesus. What should we do when we are angry? How can we remain pure in a godless culture? How important is it to keep promises? You may have heard it said one way or the other, but Jesus says something different to you. He speaks grace & truth.
Matthew 5:33-37 ESV
1. Do not swear.
2. Speak the truth like Jesus.
- Sincerely
- Seriously
- with Love
3. Jesus is the true word.
“Was I vacillating when I wanted to do this? Do I make my plans according to the flesh, ready to say “Yes, yes” and “No, no” at the same time? As surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been Yes and No. For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we proclaimed among you, Silvanus and Timothy and I, was not Yes and No, but in him it is always Yes. For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory. And it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, and who has also put his seal on us and given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.” (2 Corinthians 1:17–22)
“I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.” (Revelation 1:9)
"Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6, ESV)
