Matthew 5:27-28 Thou Shalt Not Lust

                   Lust By NeoGaboX Gabriel S. Delgado C.

²⁷Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: ²⁸But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5:27-28 King James Version (KJV)

Here Jesus stresses the importance of keeping our thoughts and feelings pure and holy as well as our physical actions. The Elohim of Purity warns us that; "Many times people intend to do a destructive thing, but they do not actually do the physical deed; yet precious ones, do you know from the inner standpoint of the Cosmic Law, if you desire to do a destructive thing, whether you actually do the deed or not matters not to the Cosmic Law? It judges you on your intent, your feeling and your motive. The intent to do a destructive thing is the same thing as the deed done under the Action of the Law, because the desire to do it, has already qualified the energy in your own Life Stream destructively with that feeling! ...Be very careful what you desire!" (The Voice of the I AM, 1946 June p13-14)

CHAPTER 143.

³⁹And Jesus said, God knows the pure in heart; the lustful men and women are but creatures of the lustful self; they cannot be at one; nor can they be at one with God. ⁴⁰Nathaniel said, Is it not well that all men should refrain from taking on themselves the marriage vow? ⁴¹And Jesus said, Men are not pure because they are unmarried men. The man who lusts is an adulterer if he has wife or not.
