THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW
Part 13: The Attitude of Your Heart |
|
Jesus wanted to set forth the doctrine of His future
church, but the Jews were only interested in their self-serving
policies because the God-man’s words conflicted with their desires.
Murder was common and Jesus emphatically stated that homicide was
unacceptable regardless of the circumstances and was never an option
in the Kingdom of God. It struck a raw nerve when the God-man talked
about anger. The Son of God warned that aside from righteous anger
directed at sin, this powerful emotion is not tolerated in the
spirit world. Unforgiveness does not exist in heaven and those who
claim to be followers of Jesus need to seek reconciliation before
they come to present an offering to the Lord. Jesus astonished the
people with His words, but the God-man was simply setting the
standard by which they should live. Your attitude is like the aroma
of your heart. Do you smell good? How well do you measure up to the
words of Jesus? |
