Matthew #8

Jesus' Story of Rejection has become our Story of Acceptance

March 3, 2024 • Jonathan Lilley • Matthew 12:9–37

The final chapters of Matthew's Gospel provide the greatest evidence that Jesus was the Christ, the Messiah, King of Israel, and Savior of the World. The truth of who Jesus is and what he has done for us helps us let go of all our fears and live for Him with courage and freedom without fear. Because of Jesus' resurrection, we have nothing to hide, nothing to fear, and nothing to lose.
