Jesus and Enemies
Description
Emilie Hisel speaks on Matthew 5:43-47. Jesus gives examples of having a righteousness that exceeds the scribes and Pharisees. Most people can feel good about not breaking the command "love your neighbor" and the status quo to hate your enemy, but Jesus elevates the command and says to love your enemies. Jesus deals with the heart. This is a whole new way to be human. -- Description from NU Podcast Being a follower of Jesus means becoming like Jesus and doing what He did, and this requires teaching. So, one day Jesus sat down on a mountain side, opened His mouth, and taught His followers what it means to be a part of God's people. Jesus' sermon on that mount taught more than bad behaviors that need change but a radical, new way of living, a new way to be human. -- Description from NU Podcast
