Bible Question (short): What is Jesus's point? Perfectionism? |
Question (full): What is Jesus's point? Perfectionism? Since the context of the verse(prior commands, etc) are law oriented not faith/grace oriented.... isn't this Old Testament(sons of Haggar/slavery) teaching ? If we literally tried to follow this command (and not the sprit of the entire new convenant) would we "miss the mark" ? |
