shall be in danger of hell fire.”

leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way.

offer your gift.

so.”

9. Adultery <---> Desire
´ ““You have heard that it was said to those of old,

2. Conversation
3. Fulfillment

10. Adultery <---> Desire
´ If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and
cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you
that one of your members perish, than for your
whole body to be cast into hell. And if your right
hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from
you; for it is more profitable for you that one of
your members perish, than for your whole body to
be cast into hell.”
´ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:27-30‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

12. Swearing
´ ““Again you have heard that it was said to those of
old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform
your oaths to the Lord.’
´ But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by
heaven, for it is God’s throne; nor by the earth, for it
is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of
the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head,
because you cannot make one hair white or black.
´ But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For
whatever is more than these is from the evil one.”
´ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:33-37‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

13. When you swear : associated with anger and lying
Talking like you own the world, but do you ?
Too much talking – from the evil one ? – detail in
your words.
Father saying : silence your mouth, and your heart
will talk to God, silence your heart, God will talk.

´ ““You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an
eye and a tooth for a tooth.’
´ But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But
whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the
other to him also. If anyone wants to sue you and
take away your tunic, let him have your cloak
also.
´ And whoever compels you to go one mile, go
with him two. Give to him who asks you, and from
him who wants to borrow from you do not turn
away.”
´ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:38-42‬ ‭NKJV

16. LOVE your Enemies
´ ““You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your
neighbor and hate your enemy.’
´ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse
you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those
who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be
sons of your Father in heaven;
´ for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and
sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those
who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax
collectors do the same? And if you greet your brethren only,
what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax
collectors do so? Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your
Father in heaven is perfect.”
´ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:43-48‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

17. The Narrow Gate
´ ““Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate
and broad is the way that leads to destruction,
and there are many who go in by it. Because
narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which
leads to life, and there are few who find it.”
´ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:13-14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

18. SELF-CONTROL EASY-LIFE

19. Building on the Rock

does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his
house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods
came, and the winds blew and beat on that house;
and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
´ “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and
does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his
house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods
came, and the winds blew and beat on that house;
and it fell. And great was its fall.””
´ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:24-27‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

20. Matthew 5:48

Father in heaven is perfect"
