Today’s passage from the Sermon on the Mount deals with difficult topics: anger, adultery, divorce and the swearing of oaths.

Jesus seems to take the laws of the times and make them even harder to live up to.

But, put into the proper context, we understand we are called to righteousness — not in the sense of being perfect, but in striving to be a whole, healed person, who can then bring healing and wholeness to all relationships.

Today’s message is based on Matthew 5: 21-37
