Matthew 5:20-26

- Anger is all about losing Control
- And one thing leading to another
- without being aware of the consequences.
- Anger is meant to make us aware of our feelings and situations
- when things around us are wrong
- and the need to correct them
- But we cannot react from being angry
- Remember thought the situation need rectifying
- We may not know all the reality of the present circumstance
- nor the right and proper way to deal with the circumstance
- nor have the capacity to understand the repercussions in the long term
- There is someone who does
- We need to approach him
- surrender our understanding
- motives and solutions to him
- and ask him to lead our actions and path
- Secondly this passage also speaks of a life which springs forth
- from being in a relationship with God
- Read through the Gospels
- Especially the Sermon on the Mount
- And you will see that Jesus is inviting us to live a just and good life
- In partnership with Him
- And everyone around us
- In the Sermon on the Mount
- He helps us see that Life in God
- Is not the same as what society proclaims as truth.
- God’s truth is best understood by being in a relationship with Him.
- And living by every word that comes from the mouth of God
- Is righteousness of God
- Which we otherwise can only dream of.
