9.17.23 Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:21-30)

What would you say if someone asked you, "Are you a good person?". Kevin teaches us this week that sin's root is our internal character, not our external conduct. We see in Matthew 5:13-20 that the root of murder of contempt, the root of adultery is lust, and the root of a Holy Life is Jesus. Since our hearts reveal our wickedness, we must rely on the Holy Spirit to give us a new heart so that we might actually live a holy life.
