Jesus, the Law, and the Christian

Aug 11, 2024

Passage: Matthew 5:17-20

Preacher: Bill Massey

Series: Sermon on the Mount

Category: Sunday Morning

Detail:

Sermon Intro: Many people perform good works out of craven fear or resentful duty. But Jesus wants us to obey God from a heart of love as his grateful children. Understanding how Jesus fulfills the law enables that. Jesus says in verse 17, “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law and the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.” One thing Jesus is saying is this: if we want to know what the law really means for us, we must first look at how he has fulfilled the law for us.
