THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

For truly I tell you, until heaven

and earth disappear, not the smallest

letter, not the least stroke of a pen,

will by any means disappear from the

Law until everything is accomplished.

Therefore anyone who sets aside

one of the least of these commands

and teaches others accordingly will be

called least in the kingdom of heaven,

but whoever practices and teaches these

commands will be called great in the

kingdom of heaven. For I tell you

that unless your righteousness surpasses

that of the Pharisees and the teachers of

the law, you will certainly not enter the

kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:18-20
