​

Let your yes mean yes and no mean no

• Be careful of the vows and promises we make to others and to God (are you really willing to follow through)

• We are here to glorify God

• Die to yourself, put other before yourself

 

Main Verse:

​

Matthew 5:33-37

​

“Again, you have heard that it was said to our ancestors, You must not break your oath, but you must keep your oaths to the Lord. 34 But I tell you, don’t take an oath at all: either by heaven, because it is God’s throne; 35 or by the earth, because it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King. 36 Do not swear by your head, because you cannot make a single hair white or black. 37 But let your ‘yes’ mean ‘yes,’ and your ‘no’ mean ‘no.’ Anything more than this is from the evil one.
