For the fourth time in His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus begins a section of teaching with the words, “You have heard that it was said.” In this case, the teaching had to do with telling the truth. God’s chosen people, the Children of Israel, had become known as liars because of the way that they interpreted Old Testament law concerning using oaths. There is no place for falsehood in the lives of followers of Jesus Christ. It is just as easy to slip into falsehood today as it was back then. We need to be people who let our “yes” be “yes” and our “no” be “no.” (Matthew 5:33-37)
