JUNIOR HIGH SUNDAY SCHOOL

Today our topic is, "Enough Said - Your Word." Our main Bible passage is Matthew 5:33-37. We try to understand that this dare is not about keeping promises, but being a person whose word can be counted on as well as to rate our own current level of trustworthiness and choose a way to work on it this week.

* Taken from Dares from Jesus 2

Matthew 5:33-37
33"Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'Do not break your oath, but keep the oaths you have made to the Lord.' 34But I tell you, Do not swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God's throne; 35or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. 36And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37Simply let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No'; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.
