The Sabbath During the Ministry of the Apostles (2)Matthew 5:17-20
Excerpted from: When Actions Contradict Stated BeliefsSo unless we produce the fruit of righteousness, we will not see the Kingdom of God. We cannot receive salvation unless we are more holy, in a sense, than the Pharisees. The righteousness of true Christians is seated in the heart and is therefore genuine.
Now the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees consisted of outward observances of ceremonial and traditional law. They offered sacrifices, they fasted and prayed frequently, and were meticulous about tithes and religious ceremonies. However, they neglected justice, truth, purity, and holiness of their hearts. The righteousness that Jesus requires of His Kingdom is obedience and purity and morality, honesty, self-control, the fear of God, and love of others.
