Matthew 5
3, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
It is God's LAW the shows us we are SINNERS in NEED of a Savior (Romans 3:19-20).
6, Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after RIGHTEOUSNESS: for they shall be filled.
The KNOWLEDGE of RIGHTEOUSNESS is God's LAW because it is written; My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness (Ps 119:172).
8, Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
These are those that have been Born again to see God; Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God (1 John 3:9).
It is a SINFUL MIND that breaks God's commandments in thought and action are the things that defile a man; But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: These are the things which defile a man ( Matthew 15:18-20)
10, Blessed are they which are persecuted for RIGHTEOUSNESS' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
SIN will keep all who practice it OUT of God's KINGDOM. Those who follow him need to proclaim the Gospel to WARN the World. Men love darkness to hide their SINS and do not like the LIGHT that reveals the truth that their SINS will keep them out of God's KINGDOM.
The KNOWLEDGE of SIN and RIGHTEOUSNESS is God's LAW because it is written; My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness (Ps 119:172) and by the LAW is the KNOWLEDGE OF SIN (Romans 3:20)
17, Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18, For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19, Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20, For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
21, Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
22, But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
23, Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
24, Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
25, Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
26, Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
27, Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
28, But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Yes indeed you would have to close your eyes not to see God's LAW (10 Commandments) being proclaimed, all through the sermon on the mount
...................
God's 4th commandment is one of the ten (Exodus 20:8-11) If we knowingly break it when God asks us not to we stand guilty before God of committing sin (James 2:8-12).
If we do not seek him in repentance and forgiveness we are in danger of the Judgement (Hebrews 10:26-27)
Sunday worship is a tradition and teaching of man that has lead many to break the commandments of God. Jesus says that if we follow the traditions of man that break the commandments of God we are not following God (Matthew 15:3-9)
Who should we follow the teachings and traditions of men or the Word of God? Who should we believe the Words of men or the Word of God?
