Matthew continues his series on Matthew, and talks about divorce.

Matthew unpacks Matthew 5:27-30 and talks about the trap of forbidden desires (lust) and the surgical cure that must be done to get out of the trap.

Matthew talks about Matthew 5:17-20 and unpacks what Jesus meant by saying that He had come to fulfill the law, not abolish it. As we look carefully, we discover that the law is here to stay with a changed role and that doing the will of God is about much more than rule-keeping.
