Matthew 5:30

And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Today's scripture seems to be saying the same thing as yesterday's scripture, which was Matthew 5:29, "If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell." This idea must be very important, that Jesus gave us tow examples! I, too, will repeat my exhortation to you of yesterday! If there is something that causes you to stumble, be it person, place or thing, get it out of your life completely! Avoid it completely! Have nothing to do with it!

God Bless You!

So, what became of him?

TODAY'S BIT OF WISDOM/REFLECTION:

The moral to the above fact sheet

Quit work and play golf.

Note: This is for a bit of fun. I do not believe that this is what the Lord would ask of us. Remember Paul's words in 2 Thessolonians 3:10, "For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat."
