Oswald Chambers has an interesting take on the Sermon on the Mount. “Never look for justice, but never cease to give it.” Its message is not “Do your duty”, but rather, “Do what is not your duty.” That’s “Striving for Godly Perfection” all right!
What’s your attitude about “going the second mile”? Do you anticipate a grace filled relationship, or harbor “I’ll show ‘em” thoughts? Jesus’ “battle plan” for his disciples was so total 180 that it is hard to fathom. Consider contrasting a modern battle plan for dealing with difficult people verses what Jesus wants His disciples to do.
