How are we led in the New Covenant walk?
Law? Rules? Behavior teaching? Traditions?
Matthew 5: 38-42 NIV
38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’[h]39 But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. 40 And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. 41 If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. 42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
Matthew 5:48 NIV
48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Perfect = Mature
Jesus teaches New paradigms via Stories, Metaphors, His example.
We Are Spirit-led People!
