We are now continuing with Matthew 5:33-48, where Jesus continues to speak about the law and the familiar scriptures that have been known for decades, but Jesus is clarifying His expectations moving forward.

Remember, the law was our schoolmaster - a law that outlined the expectations of living a perfect and pure life in the sight of God. We know that living such a life is impossible, and we need a Savior who can atone for sin once and for all.
