    There are times it’s worthwhile to figure out what Jesus "didn’t mean."

    OPENING: A woman read ahead as we were going through this text and was troubled by the phrase: "do not turn away from the one desiring to borrow from you."

    How are we to understand this teaching of Jesus? 1. It is about trusting God. 2. It is about not doing it our way. 3. It is about being like God.

    The Sermon on the Mount is an invitation – to taste and see this God, to join his club and deepen his kind of life skills.

    Turning the Other Cheek I’ve been trying to figure out a realistic application for turning the other cheek ever since as a young person a mentor of mine once pointed out to that to teach his son this attitude was a license to getting him bullied at school. No way am I going to encourage my son ...read more

    based on 49 ratings
     | 15,572 views

    We often confuse the word "perfect" with ’sinless perfection. This study of the word "perfect" shows that God wants us to be ’complete, spiritually mature, and spiritually sound’.

    This is about loving our enemies.

    Read Matthew 5:43-48. This is yet another hard saying of the Sermon on the Mount. This goes beyond the revenge we looked at last week. Jesus said that we shouldn’t seek revenge. Okay, fine.
