The Epistles of John

• 27:57Matthew 20

  And I can almost see John writing this through tears to Diotrephus. Because this is personal for John. He knows the poison that can be let in when you live a me first life. I believe his memory is drifting back to Matthew chapter 20. When John's mom comes to Jesus.

• 29:19Matthew 20

  And she was saying to Jesus, Jesus, just can my boys please be first? That didn't go well, did it? And I can just imagine that as John's writing this, he's writing with tears because Jesus' words are echoing in his heart. And here is the response of Jesus Christ in Matthew 20 through 26 through 28. Jesus says, it must not be that way among you.

Matthew

• 7:53Matthew 20

  "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."

The Mind of a Disciple

• 31:21Matthew 20

  collectors and sinners. Matthew was the one who recorded the words of Jesus in Matthew 20, 28 where Jesus said, the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many. Jesus was saying that he gave his life for sinners like Matthew, like you. We don't

This is Church

• 6:01Matthew 20

  The message today is simply entitled, This is Church Serving. Serving. Think about God's grace flowing into you, flowing through you, and flowing out of you. Matthew chapter 20, beginning in verse 26. Jesus says, it must not be like that among you. Now he's speaking to the disciples, but he's also speaking to anyone who comes after them. He's speaking to those of faith.

• 8:09Matthew 20

  Lord, we ask this in Jesus' name. Amen and amen. So in Matthew 20, which we just read, you find two disciples named James and John. And with them, we find their mother. And these three discover the hard way that Jesus' kingdom is an upside-down kingdom. It's unlike earthly power and might that we often try to achieve for ourselves.

  Matthew 20, 29, as they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed him. Now, have you heard that before? Three times in the triumphal entry, we see a large crowd celebrating King Jesus. Verse 30. There were two blind men sitting by the road. Anyone heard of two men before? When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, Lord, have mercy on us, son of David. Verse 31.

What is Church?

• 3:30Matthew 20

  That we're going to see that a hindering, stumbling block to our service to the Lord is us. So with that, let's look at Mark chapter 10, verse 35 together. Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. And if you want to go back and read, there's another parallel, I believe, in Matthew chapter 20. The same account. But here in Matthew, we have their mom asking the question. And then James and John are nearby.

Hosea (Holiness and heart of God)

• 27:55Matthew 20

  …my debt goes, the greater his redemption is poured out upon me. That's the picture that we see in Christ, that he gives us this beautiful picture. And Jesus Christ purchases us and calls us, follow me. That's why Matthew 20 says, just as a son of man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many. So here is your price, let me put a value, let me put a number on you, let me put a value, let me put a…
