For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, [...]

Read Matthew 5:17-20.

Read Matthew 5:13-16.
In the fifth chapter of Matthew are recorded some of the most powerful pronouncements of Jesus.

Don’t harbor superstitions of any kind, big or little. People often make a fetish of a number or a date, or a keepsake; or they believe certain things bring “bad luck.” This is denying God. The Bible says,

Don’t try to straddle the fence. If you wish to accomplish anything, you must be single- minded. It will be going the long way around if you first turn left and then right when you really want to go straight ahead.

Then comes the ivory. This [...]
