Least of the Commandments

Goodboy

Just waiting for the Rapture at this point!
Least of the Commandments


Matthew 5:21 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
Matthew 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Matthew 5:27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
Matthew 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

Matthew 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

In Matthew 5:22 and 5:28 Jesus states just how strict God’s commandments are, letting us know that no one can keep them.
In James 2:10 James states that if you break just one of the commandments, you are guilty of all of them.
In Matthew 5:19 Jesus states that someone who breaks the commandments and teaches other to do so, will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven.

So not only is the person referenced in Matthew 5:19 living in sin, he is also teaching others to do the same. None the less, he is accepted into Heaven.

Goodboy :)
