Matthew 5-7
 
   The book of Matthew is declaring that Jesus is the Messiah and is particular in showing the fulfillment of the prophecies.  The section here is considered "the greatest sermon" given by Jesus himself.  Here is the guidelines for our life here on Earth. This was given as instructions to the crowd of 5000 that was fed bread and fish and now were being fed with the food of everlasting life.

    When you study each part, close your eyes and put yourself on that field hearing the words spoken directly to you.  Each part is plain and simple.  It begins with the beatitudes which were given not to condemn you for failure, but to bless you when you follow them.  It continues with putting us above the law in keeping the spirit of the law.  Since this is impossible, Jesus gives us the answer to be righteous with God - forgive others, pray to the Father, and ask forgiveness from Him.

    I have discovered that these chapters and chapters of John 14th through the 17th chapters to be very inspirational and it is a summary of Jesus' entire mission.  This gives us our own "little guide book" in living here on Earth in God's kingdom.
