Matthew 5:21-30  (English Standard Version)<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Anger<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

21 <\/sup>\u201cYou have heard that it was said to those of old, \u2018You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.\u2019<\/span><\/span> 22 <\/sup>But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, \u2018You fool!\u2019 will be liable to the hell of fire.<\/span><\/span> 23 <\/sup>So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,<\/span><\/span> 24 <\/sup>leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.<\/span><\/span> 25 <\/sup>Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison.<\/span><\/span> 26 <\/sup>Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until you have paid the last penny.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lust<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

27 <\/sup>\u201cYou have heard that it was said, \u2018You shall not commit adultery.\u2019<\/span><\/span> 28 <\/sup>But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.<\/span><\/span> 29 <\/sup>If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell.<\/span><\/span> 30 <\/sup>And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hebrews 2:14-18  (English Standard Version)<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

14 <\/sup>Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,<\/span> 15 <\/sup>and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.<\/span> 16 <\/sup>For surely it is not angels that he helps, but he helps the offspring of Abraham.<\/span> 17 <\/sup>Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.<\/span> 18 <\/sup>For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
