Matthew 5:21-37
Stretching the Letter of the Law

This week, we continue to explore Jesus' core teachings in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7). We tread carefully with this reading, mindful of the harm its misuse has caused. Taking the position that all Jesus teaches builds God's Kingdom, we examine the ways he stretches the letter of the law to point to its more true and bountiful purpose, helping God's people mature in faith.
