Download - Heart of The Law 2 Slides, 8/23/15
“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.
So if you are offering your giD at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your giD there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your giD.
Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison. Truly, I say to you, you will never get out unKl you have paid the last penny.
Ma$hew 5:21-‐26 (ESV)
ROCK SOLID LIFE
“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.
Ma$hew 7:24-‐27 (ESV)
The Heart of the Law
1. In the Law we see our HEART 2. In the Law we see God’s HEART
• Murder takes the life of the child of God we kill. • Anger takes OUR life, liTle by liTle, day by day, from the inside out.
The Heart of the Law
God wants to HEAL our hearts, not just change how we act!
The Heart of the Law
I. As soon as we recognize anger, DEAL WITH IT!
II. QUICKLY reconcile with anyone you’re angry with.
III. QUICKLY make it right with anyone who’s angry with you.
