Sermon on the Mount: Oaths, Retaliation & Love - Chris Dillon, 03 03 24

New Life of Asheville Messages

The last couple of weeks in the Sermon on the Mount have been pretty intense as Jesus has peeled back the layers on several controversial topics like anger, lust, marriage, and divorce. This week, we’ll hear Jesus finish the last 3 of his “you have heard it said, but I say to you…” statements as He tackles oaths, retaliation, and love for our enemies. As people who belong to the Kingdom of Jesus, we are to be truth-tellers, entrust justice to God, and love the very ones who detest us. In these ways, we show that we belong to another Kingdom…and the only way we can live so radically, is with the help of Jesus as we walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.
