Matthew 5:27-30 Are You An Adulterer?

We like the temptation of lust…there is a sense in which we say to this temptation, “Go ahead, torture me all you like.” Because we like this particular kind of torture. Most of us like to think we keep and have kept at the very least two of the Ten Commandments. We may reluctantly admit that we have lied, stolen in some form or fashion, or coveted someone else’s possessions, but we have never murdered or committed adultery…at least we have been able to keep those two. And now here comes Jesus saying. “Au contraire…turns out you haven’t even kept these two really.”
