Jesus raises the bar for what it means to love each other and to live in community by saying that words can kill, men can’t wantonly discard their wives, and putting a finer point on our accountability for what we promise and how. 

Life in God’s community means a deeper consideration of our role as saints and sinners, and what it means to be both. Though we flip flop between the two, God remains constant.
