What Do Ye More Than Others? (Matthew 5:47)

1. Introduction
   Matt. 5.47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
   
   Matt. 5.20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

      1. Loving Matt. 5:43-46
         Matt. 5.43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
         Matt. 5.44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
         Matt. 5.45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
         Matt. 5.46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

         Matt. 6.14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
         Matt. 6.15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
      4. Better neighbor Matt. 22:39
