Why Changing Our Actions Isn't Enough, Matthew 5:38-48

May 7, 2023    Pastor Amy Snyder

Jesus teaches in Matthew 5:38-48 how we should respond to people when we are offended. He teaches what we should DO. But, just as we think we might be getting better at responding in these situations, Jesus doesn't end His lesson with just our actions. He continues in verse 43 and addresses our heart. It just isn't good enough to respond on the outside correctly, but in our hearts as well.
