Reflection

Sunday 15th February 2026

Today we considered more teaching from the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus emphasised following not only the letter of the law, but also the spirit of the law. He delivered the true meaning of the law in a way which was memorable and showed that there is no place for pride, as we all fall very far short of Gods principles. The commandments show us how needful we are of forgiveness and Jesus death on the cross. May we have humility before God and others and seek to be the people he would have us be?
Every blessing,
Rev`d Theo Corney
