    We cannot understand the Kingdom using worldly systems

    worldly logic,

    and worldly paradigms.

    Grids.

    It is interesting when you read a lot of commentaries,

    that most of the people writing them are either not believers

    or believe that the work of the Holy Spirit ceased.

    And most of it is not helpful.

    This is what Paul describes as the "unspiritual man"

    who does not receive the gifts of the Spirit

    they are folly.

    And then Paul says the spiritual man

    judges all things because it is in the spirit that things are discerned.

    So what Jesus is telling us

    lines up with Paul.

    Jesus is showing us that the moral code

    that is required of us in heaven

    is beyond human ability.

    Jesus is building up to the crescendo of his sermon:

    Come unto me all you who labor and are heavy laden

    and I will give you rest.

     

    Come to me.

    Come to me and I will give you my mind.

    Come to me and I will help you give you my emotional stability.

    I will help you with your impossible marriage.

    I will help you with you rotten brother.

    I will help you with contracts and agreements

    so that your yes will be yes and your no will be no.

    I will help you with your wandering eye.

    I will be in you.

    And this is only in the Spirit.

     

    And in order to do this,

    you need the gifts and the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
