Then you continue to read Matthew 5 and he explains exactly what he is talking about in context. He does not say follow the Levitical law or the ceremonial law. Notice everything he points out lines up with the 10 commandments. Also notice there is no mention of the sabbath.
Hello 2Timothy2:15, nice to see you.
Who said Jesus says to follow the Levitical and ceremonial law? Correct everything he says does line up with the spiritual application of the 10 commandments.
After stating that none of God's LAW (10 Commandments) have been abolished v17-19, Jesus then goes on to say; v20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus then goes on and amplifies the application of God's LAW to the heart (thoughts and feelings) which is the very root of sin saying that if we lust after women we are committing Adultery and being angry with your brother as murder from the 10 commandments as examples in v17-27.Jesus starts out by saying;
Jesus finishes by saying in v48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Yep looks like we need a fixing. We have a broken heart.
...........
There are 10 commandments written by God on the tables of stone. The other 8 are not mentionded does that means we can break them according to Matthew 5? If you believe that then you do not know what Jesus was talking about when he uses the spiritual application of lust and anger in committing adultery and murder.
May God bless you as you seek him through his Word.
