This scripture continues our study of The Sermon on the Mount. I chose The Message translation of the text because it makes so much sense as we try to figure out what Jesus is talking about here. He tells us to be perfect - what a hard goal! He tells us to grow up - that hurts the ego. I believe Jesus wants us to realize that our discipleship is not a burden - it is the freedom to behave as God intends us to behave. It is the opportunity to share the love and forgiveness we have received with so many others. What a blessing this truly becomes. Please join us as we continue this study today.
