Seek and Apply God’s Word

“And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.” Matthew 5:30

Understanding scripture is vital as it provides direction for our lives. The bible is God’s word to us and as we seek to know God, He reveals Himself to us through the many pages of biblical text. If not understood properly, we can miss the message that it conveys. Such is an example found in Matthew 5. Jesus is not talking about self-mutilation here. However, he is giving an example of the impact of ongoing sin, pointing out the disastrous nature of sin and its result. I pray that we all seek to understand His word and moreover that we seek to apply His teaching so that we honor Him. #seektruth #GodsWord #TheBible #HisWordIsTrue #Hiswordislife #Repent #receiveGodslove #God #GodsPlan #seethesonrise
