Messiah
2018 January - 2018 September
Matthew’s Gospel presents Jesus as the Messiah, Israel’s promised and long-awaited Saviour and King. Jesus, the Messiah-King came to save his people, not merely from foreign oppression as many expected, but more fundamentally from their sins’both national and personal sins. As Immanuel ’’God with us’’ Jesus also does for us what we cannot do for ourselves’live a righteous, God-satisfying life. This very same Messiah-King also establishes God’s kingdom on earth. A kingdom not based on earthly power, wealth and prestige, but one based on love for God and love for others. Ultimately Jesus, the Messiah-King, died on the cross and resurrected, thereby empowering his followers to live out his kingdom values, both collectively as his church and personally as his disciples.
