Jesus goes beyond the law. He gets to the heart of the matter. If the heart is right, the sin will not happen. In order to keep the law, look to the heart. Do not murder is kept by not being angry. Do not commit adultery is kept by not even looking to lust after another person. Retaliation or an ‘eye for an eye’ is kept by forgiving your enemies. Tradition and the world allow for hating your enemy, Jesus said to give love to your enemy. Ask God to change your heart then there will be no need for the law. God has done in our hearts what the law could never do.

Father God,
We lay our hearts before You. Help us to store Your word as treasures in our heart that we might not sin against You. You have given us the power to resist temptation, the flesh and satan by Your Holy Spirit living in us. There is nothing else that we need. We have You. What joy You bring to us. Thank You for everything. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Hah! I got a kick out of your statement, “Do not commit adultery is kept by not even looking to lust after a woman.” How about not lusting after a man? 🤪
