Week 5 - Follow Me
Apr 2, 2025 • Matthew Allen, Rich Walker
Matthew 8–9 serves as a bridge between Jesus’ Kingdom teaching (Matthew 5–7) and His mission through the disciples (Matthew 10). It demonstrates that the Kingdom of God is not just a future promise but a present reality that brings healing, freedom, forgiveness, and restoration. These chapters also provide lessons for us as reminders to respond with faith, obedience, and service, reflecting the compassion that Jesus has in the Kingdom. Thus, like the disciples, we too need to assess the cost of discipleship and our actions as participants in God’s kingdom.
