Jesus encourages his followers to a new level of truth and integrity. In our words and actions we need to have integrity. In Jesus' day they were making oaths that they had no intent of keeping. Kind of like when you were a kid and you would cross your fingers behind your back as a way of getting out of the promise you made. Jesus desires that we be truthful and that we shouldn't have to swear or make oaths to make the truth believable. The character of a Christ-follower should be sufficient.
Live with integrity.
