Throw it away

‘So if your right eye causes you to sin, take it out and throw it away! It is much better for you to lose a part of your body than to have your whole body thrown into hell. If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away! It is… Read more

Making peace

‘So if you are about to offer your gift to God at the altar and there you remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar, go at once and make peace with your brother, and then come back and offer your gift to God.’ (verses 23,24)… Read more

God’s laws are good

‘So then, whoever disobeys even the least important of the commandments and teaches others to do the same, will be least in the Kingdom of heaven. On the other hand, whoever obeys the Law and teaches others to do the same, will be great in the Kingdom of heaven. I tell you, then, that you… Read more

Like a bright light

You are like light for the whole world. A city built on a hill cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and puts it under a bowl; instead it is put on the lampstand, where it gives light for everyone in the house. In the same way your light must shine before people, so… Read more

For my good

The law of the LORD is perfect; it gives new strength. The commands of the LORD are trustworthy, giving wisdom to those who lack it. The laws of the LORD are right, and those who obey them are happy. The commands of the LORD are just and give understanding to the mind. (verses 7,8) Read… Read more

Where true happiness lies

Happy are those who are merciful to others; God will be merciful to them! Happy are the pure in heart; they will see God! Happy are those who work for peace; God will call them his children! (verses 7-9) Read Matthew 5:1-10 Just like us, the people of Jesus’ time were in search of happiness…. Read more

Now, not later

As Jesus walked along the shore of Lake Galilee, he saw two brothers who were fishermen, Simon (called Peter) and his brother Andrew, catching fish in the lake with a net. Jesus said to them, ‘Come with me, and I will teach you to catch people.’ At once they left their nets and went with… Read more

The coming of the kingdom

From that time Jesus began to preach his message: ‘Turn away from your sins, because the Kingdom of heaven is near!’ (verse 17) Read Matthew 4:12-17 John the Baptist had heralded the coming Messiah, the Saviour sent by God to set people free. John’s message was that people should turn away from their sins, because… Read more

So much to offer

Then the Devil took Jesus to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in all their greatness. ‘All this I will give you,’ the Devil said, ‘if you kneel down and worship me.’ Then Jesus answered, ‘Go away, Satan! The scripture says, “Worship the Lord your God and serve… Read more
