March Theme: The Breastplate of Righteousness
Text: Matthew 5:43-48; 1 Cor. 7:1; Col.2:10
The Focus: Jesus gives a command in Mat.5:48 "Therefore you be perfect, as your Father in heaven is perfect". Is Jesus calling us to flawlessness or sinlessness? If He was, then He is commanding us to do something impossible. This is not an excuse or justification to sin or continue in sin, but we also trust and believe God is just and righteous. Therefore God would not give us a command that would be impossible to obey, so what is it that Jesus is calling us to?
