Sermon on the Mount: Lesson 4

Matthew 5:21-30 | Case Studies in Genuine Righteousness (Part 1) | Deep in the Bible No. 14

Join host Timothy Agee in this episode of the Deep in the Bible podcast as we continue our study of the Sermon on the Mount. In this fourth lesson, we delve into the first two of Jesus' six "Case Studies in Genuine Righteousness" from Matthew 5:21-48. Discover how true righteousness goes beyond outward appearances and religious observances, requiring a transformation of the heart. Timothy unpacks Jesus's teachings on anger and lust, revealing how these internal struggles are just as significant as the physical acts of murder and adultery. Learn why Jesus emphasizes the root causes of sin and calls his followers to a higher standard of holy living that exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees.
