Martin Luther once said: “We are saved by faith alone, but not a faith that is alone.” In other words, genuine faith leads to obedience, because our love for Christ is made obvious by what we do!

His authority would empower them, and His presence would sustain them. His mission was accomplished - theirs had just begun.

His answers astounded everyone in their clarity and their authority. No one could offer a word of refutation; and at the end of the day, no one dared ask any more questions. The examination was over. He was who He said He was. The Passover Lamb had been found faultless and was ready to be offered.

Lesson 11 - The King’s Teaching - The Upside-Down Kingdom Matthew 18:1—19:30. Jesus continues to explain the upside-down nature of His Kingdom in this fourth section of His teaching.

Forgiveness is extended without limit, and great reward is promised to those who persevere in confident trust. It is the Kingdom open to all who know their need of mercy and who return to the Shepherd who was pursuing them all along.

The King Begins to Reveal Himself - Lesson 10 Matthew 16:1 — 17:27. Things were beginning to come together for the disciples.
