February 23, 2014--sermon title Perfect Timing
Our tour of The Sermon on the Mount ends this morning with Matthew 5:38-38, as Jesus offers yet more examples of “kingdom behaviors.” In today’s passage, the focus is on anger and vengeance.
What is the impact of vengeance--on the perpetrator and the recipient?
How is seeking vengeance different from allowing for consequences to occur?
Is it possible to “love an enemy” without “liking” him/her? How?
In the context of the gospel reading, being "perfect" relates to being mature, or fully grown into your intended purpose. What keeps you from a fuller, more mature relationship with God?
