2 Corinthians

• 25:15Matthew 16

  who is this king of glory? The Lord, strong and mighty. The disciples knew, Matthew 16, that one day Jesus will come back in the glory of his father. John chapter 1, they knew that the word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only son from the father. So on Mount Sinai, God protected his people from his glory because fallen

Asking for a Friend

• 1:12Matthew 16

  Like these are real questions that you asked early this year that we've been answering from a biblical perspective. So if you have your Bible today, I hope that you do join me in the book of Matthew. If you have your notes in front of you, it's actually not Matthew 24. It's Matthew 16, 24. Matthew 16, beginning in verse 24. Today's question is a question we should all ask. Does my life matter?

Asking for a Friend

• 1:34Matthew 16

  …your pastors here. And I am bringing the word today through the New Testament. We are normally an expositional church. Beginning in September, we will have our Bibles in 2 Corinthians. But today, go ahead and turn to Matthew 16. Because we're answering questions that you have had. So this month, the series is called Asking for a Friend. You are the friends. And we're answering questions that you have had from a biblical perspective.

• 4:32Matthew 16

  Jesus pronounced judgment on religious pride in Matthew 23. If you remember in John 2, Jesus even overturned tables in the temple courts. Jesus understood the dilemma. And yet, this same Messiah, who overturned tables, promised in Matthew 16, he said this. Upon this rock, this testimony that I am the resurrection and the life, that he is the Messiah. Jesus says, upon this rock, I will build my church.

  Come on now. I'm preaching a message that's called Mission Possible. It's possible for you to do this. Watch this. In Matthew 16 and 20, it said, But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. Paul was telling them, he said, listen, when y'all give to me, listen,…

Asking for a Friend

• 29:36Matthew 16

  What. Jesus. But. What. Does. He. I think about Matthew 16 a lot where Jesus is walking with his disciples and he asked them he says hey Joe what do people who do people say that I am and they start speaking up well some say you're Elijah he was a good Old Testament that's a good prophet my opinion some say you're

Matthew

• 7:53Matthew 16

  "But we see they might not have known fully." "This is the fourth time that Jesus has predicted that he will die on a cross." "Three times prior in Matthew, Matthew 16, Matthew 17, and Matthew 20." "He told them plainly." "These are plain words. These are not parable words." "Jesus says to them and to us that the Son of Man must suffer." "It wasn't a parable. He said that he would suffer."

Matthew

• 4:09Matthew 16

  Just a few weeks ago, we were in Matthew chapter 16 and Jesus asked his own disciples, who do people say that I am? And they give him an answer and he turns the tables and says, well, who do you say that I am? And we'll see that today we are once again reading about people who saw Jesus coming face to face and they're still asking the question, who is this man? And the reality is that maybe you're here today and this is your first time.

• 15:22Matthew 16

  Just last week, we preached through Matthew 16 where Jesus says, if anyone comes after me, they must pick up their cross and follow me. We too must choose humility. We must humble ourselves to follow the one who chose to humble himself for us. And Paul even writes that his humble entrance in Matthew 21 would end in his humble death when he says, even death on a cross.

Matthew

• 1:45Matthew 16

  Last week, Pastor Aaron brought a word on the kingdom parables that the kingdom of God is about hearing. And it is the master gardener who is sowing seeds into our life. And as Pastor Aaron said eloquently, he who has ears, let him hear. Today in Matthew 16 is the blazing center of the entire gospel of Matthew. It's the point where Jesus looks at you and looks at me and says, okay, the world is saying

• 2:08Matthew 16

  It's the point where Jesus looks at you and looks at me and says, okay, the world is saying a lot of things about me, but you, who do you say that I am? So if you have your Bibles with you, join me in the book of Matthew, the first book in the New Testament, Matthew chapter 16, 1-6. We're going to read a shocking confession by a man who is quick to speak, but slow to

The Mind of a Disciple

• 9:27Matthew 16

  And not only was he one of the disciples, he was a disciple where Jesus lived for almost three years. But we're not here today. We've not gathered in a sacred assembly to talk about Peter. We've gathered in a holy assembly to talk about Peter's Jesus. And I can't think of any better passage that illustrates Peter's faith than Matthew chapter 16. And I'm going to begin reading in verse 13, and I'll read till verse 16.

• 9:47Matthew 16

  And I'm going to begin reading in verse 13, and I'll read till verse 16. So Matthew, another disciple, writing about Peter, one of the disciples. Matthew 16, verse 13. When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, right, so that's the region northeast of Galilee. So you're paying taxes to go there. He asked the disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"

Firm Foundation

• 27:44Matthew 16

  that we get to share in the sufferings of Christ. These are the things that are worth suffering for. Spurgeon said this, he says, if we do not share with Christ in his humiliation, then how can we expect to share with Christ in his exaltation? And don't just take Spurgeon for it. Jesus said this in Matthew 16 when he says, if anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself,

Troubled Heart

• 12:40Matthew 16

  And that leads us to our first point, that a sinful heart is a troubled heart. When I am living in sin, when I am living with an all-I-want mindset, and I'll do anything I can to get what I want, I'll run over anyone I can to get what I want. When I am living this way, my heart will never be content. Jesus tells us this in Matthew 16 when he says, For what will it benefit someone if he gains the entire world, but yet he loses his life?

Deep Roots

• 22:19Matthew 16

  with the people of the Lord. They were given a new identity. Jesus hints at this in Matthew 16. He gives them a new word. It's like a vocabulary quiz for the disciples. Jesus is at the temple or the Mount of Banius. It's this God who they believed that lived at the gates of hell. And Jesus is there. And He points and says, I will build my church and the gates of hell will not overpower it.

Faith Over Fear

• 22:09Matthew 16

  And we need to realize when Jesus said, if anyone wants to follow after me, Matthew 16, if anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. Jesus was serious. And…

2020 Vision

• 21:01Matthew 16

  Wisdom is always found in Jesus Christ. Wisdom is always found. Jesus says this way. He uses the term rock. The wise man builds his house upon the rock. Now you say, well, who is the rock? Peter would say this. Some of you know the episode in Matthew 16 where Jesus is walking with his disciples. It's always dangerous to walk with Jesus Christ because Jesus has a way of walking.

• 21:37Matthew 16

  Simon Peter answers in Matthew 16, 16. He says this. You are the Messiah. You are the son of the living God. And Jesus responds here. Jesus says, blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but my father in heaven. And I also say to you that you are Peter, Petras, and that on this rock, I will build my church and the gates of hell will not overpower it.
