Send us a textThe heart of humanity's problem is the problem of the heart. In this powerful examination of Matthew 5:20-48, we journey beyond surface-level righteousness into the transformative heart surgery Jesus performs through His teaching.Six times Jesus uses the phrase "You have heard it said...but I say to you," systematically dismantling external religiosity to reveal God's true standards that penetrate our deepest thoughts and intentions. From anger to lust, from oaths to retaliation, from limited love to enemy love—Jesus consistently moves from outward compliance to inward transformation.When Jesus declares that our righteousness must exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, He isn't calling for more rigorous rule-following but for a complete heart renovation. He exposes how murder begins with anger, adultery starts with lustful intent, and how our words reflect our internal character. His teachings on reconciliation, purity, truthfulness, and supernatural love reveal that God's concern goes far beyond what others can see.The culmination comes with His command to "be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect"—not a call to flawless moral performance but to completeness in love and mercy that reflects God's character. This standard seems impossible because it is impossible—apart from divine transformation.Whether you're a faithful believer seeking deeper sanctification, a wayward soul who has drifted, or someone convinced your good works will earn heaven—Jesus speaks not to shame but to restore. His surgical words expose our need for the heart transplant that only He can perform.Let Jesus do what only He can do: expose your heart, heal your heart, and make it new. The cross was where our hearts were healed, and the empty tomb proves He restores what seems beyond repair. John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."If you haven't received Jesus Christ by Faith, as your personal Lord and Savior; I strongly encourage you to do so before it is eternally too late!!!If you need someone to pray with you please feel free to contact us here at Words From The Word Of God!!!Via:Email: [email protected] Phone: (864) 309-9087
