As Jesus was still teaching He told the ordience, their ancestors was told they must not break any vow made to the Lord their God, today many of us takes things for granted by making vows that we can not fulfill that is what Jesus was talking about. Do you make just because you want to make it you make it by meaning what you say.
According to Jesus we must not swear by anything that our word should enough. In Jesus days vows were common and HE told His followers not use them. James write to his readers, never to take an oath, by the heavens or earth or anything else. They are to say yes or simple say no that they will sin to be condenm, he is talking to us to for the Bible is always present. Are you known as a person of your word? if we speak the truth all the time we would not have to back our statement with I promise. Your yes should be your yes and no should be your no, by so doing you will not be under presure to do anytrhing contrally.
Thouhts of the Day: Do you mean what you always say?
Prayer for the Day: Lord Jesus help me to be steadfast in my words that I might not sin against you.
