Who is Jesus
Oct 28, 2018 • Malcolm Light • Matthew 13:53-14:21
Matthew 13 closes and chapter 14 opens with parallel stories; Jesus is rejected by His hometown people and John the Baptist is martyred by governmental authorities. The stories together are building to a coming climax. Yet, in the face of this growing opposition to Jesus’ ministry we find perhaps the most famous miracle recorded in the gospels – the feeding of the 5000. But why is it given to us? What does it tell us about who Jesus is, who we are, and what the kingdom He is bringing is all about?
