Matthew: The King and His Glory
In the words of Bishop JC Ryle, "The more clearly we see Christ's power, the more likely we are to realize Gospel peace." Matthew's gospel presents Jesus as the King who is full of glory! He clearly articulates that we serve Jesus, the Sovereign King of the universe. This truth has many far-reaching implications for the church, the world, and our lives. People despise the church as she languishes in her weakness as the world boasts of its great power. Yet, Matthew proves that Jesus is Israel's long-awaited Messiah and King and the church's bridegroom. He also shows that Jesus came to seek and save the lost! JC Ryle clearly articulates the implications of this truth: "Our position may be trying. Our hearts may be weak. The world may be difficult to journey through. Our faith may seem too small to carry us home. But let us take courage when we think on Jesus and not be cast down. Greater is He that is for us than all those who are against us. Our Savior can raise the dead. Our Savior is Almighty." Join us as we embark on a study through the Gospel of Matthew on Sundays at GBC! If you do, we are confident you will be blessed by growing closer to our Lord as you grow in your understanding of Him. We pray this series will encourage and bring you peace as you continue your treacherous journey through the obstacles in life, taking great courage that our Savior is truly the Almighty King!
