    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Jul 3, 2013
     | 6,977 views

    Jesus uses three contemporary examples to answer the question, "Why don't your disciples fast?"; In doing so, He explains the exclusiveness of the Kingdom of God.

    “Fast or Feast” Matthew 9:14-17 (Mark 2:18-22, Luke 5:33-39) To eat or not to eat; that is the question that is asked of Jesus. Matthew 9:14: “Then John's disciples came and asked him, "How is it that we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?" The question ...read more

    Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 26,251 views

    There are two main climates I want to preach on today, the first an atmosphere in our church that is conducive for a move of the Spirit of God, and the second is an atmosphere in our church and our personal lives that is attractive to the lost.

    Spiritual Climate Change The basic premise of global warming is that certain things done over an extended period of time will heat up the earth. Our message today is about improving the spiritual climate in our lives. There are things that we can do that effect our spiritual climate personally, in ...read more

    THE BENEFITS OF LOOKING BACK Matthew 9:9-10 I want you to imagine that just outside the doors of this church is a time machine that will immediately transport you back to the day that you were born again. If this were possible, and you could arrive at the very moment of your conversion, what ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 13, 2014
     | 5,781 views

    Jesus' comment on wineskins is confusing to many. What does it mean and how does it tie into His comments right before that on fasting?

    DID JESUS COME TO REPAIR THE OLD WAY? There are some of the same elements, but we need to know that this is a new thing. - Matthew 9:14, 16-17. - There will still be fasting – Jesus doesn’t dismiss it. Instead, He says it’ll happen when He is taken away from them (when the ...read more

     | 3,746 views

    To urge people to deliberately begin to love and to associate with at least one lost person for the purpose of unapologetically inviting them to answer Jesus’ call to repent

    I want to begin this morning by showing a deeply moving and theologically packed video clip that not only is animated and frivolous, but also 3 months too early in the year. But, this does help introduce a certain character we’re going to learn from this morning. (Show clip from “The ...read more

    Refocusing our congregation on the basics, this message point us to some fundamental necessities for the Christian life and living.

    Necessities Jerry Watts Matthew 9:9-13 • In this story of “Matthew’s call” from Jesus to become a follower and disciple, I believe we can lift out many truths. We can lift out things like “The reality of Jesus’ call” or “Responding to the Call of ...read more

  • How Could God Love Someone Like Me?

    Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 4, 2013
     | 6,771 views

    It was a scandal. Jesus was hanging out with some folk who were not well-respected. In fact, they were religious and social outcasts – and Jesus is not only eating with them, He is enjoying their company.

    9 September 2005 How Could God Love Someone Like Me? Matthew 9:9-13 Introduction As we get started this morning, I want to begin with a question. If Jesus were walking among us today, would He eat at Lauren’s sports bar, “Goony Birds?” If you’re thinking that ...read more

  • The Hidden Work That Brings God’s Power

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 18, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,113 views

    This encounter makes no sense (why would Matthew just get up and follow this man) unless you know the behind-the-scenes encounters that happened prior. This message unpacks the need for that hidden work in our lives to see God moves powerfully.

    WHY DOES MATTHEW FOLLOW A STRANGER? The public commitment was preceded by behind-the-scenes work. - Matthew 9:9. - Matthew 4:18-22; John 1:35-42. - Matthew doesn't follow a stranger. He had a previous relationship with Jesus. This public moment was preceded by behind-the-scenes things. - The ...read more

  • Why Did The "Sinners" Love Hanging Out With Jesus?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 30, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,929 views

    It's a fact worth pondering: the tax collectors and sinners LIKED being with Jesus. That's not usually how the lost feel around us. What did Jesus have that we don't?

    AN IMPORTANT FACT: The tax collectors and “sinners” liked hanging out with Jesus. - Matthew 9:10. - It’s easy to rush past verse 10 and get to the rest of this story, but it’s worth settling for a moment here and thinking about its implications. The tax collectors and ...read more

     | 2,280 views

    Why focusing on sacrifice causes trouble and how focusing on compassion (as Jesus instructs us to) brings better results.

    WHAT'S WRONG WITH SACRIFICE? Sacrifice is not intrinsically bad, but the problem is when we say that more sacrifice equals a better Christian. - Matthew 9:13. - There is a lot that is good to sacrifice. Like many other things, though, making it the ultimate goal of our Christian life puts us in ...read more

  • Matthew The Publican Series

    Contributed by William D. Brown on Apr 1, 2014
     | 10,544 views

    Matthew was probably more notorious as a sinner than any of the 12, because he was a publican, tax collector for Rome. -- In Jesus' day, land and poll taxes were collected directly by Roman officials, but taxes on transported goods were contracted out.
