Conviction: So What?• Where does this fit? - Matthew is perhaps the first gospel written and by far the most popular gospel in the first centuries of the church. - Matthew is a very “Jewish Gospel” and clearly present Jesus as the fulfillment of Messianic prophesy. It assumes a knowledge of Jewish background, history, and customs. - Matthew presents Jesus as King of the Jews and Savior of the world. The structure of the book sets forth Jesus as a “New Moses” who delivers a “New Torah” in five key Messages.• What should we believe? - Jesus is the fulfillment and culmination of the Old Testament. - Jesus is both the Savior of the world who came to redeem and King of the Jews who will return to reign. - Jesus left us with a purpose to represent Him in the world and make disciples of all nations.• How should we behave? - Embracing the gracious salvation that comes through the King of the Jews death and resurrection. - Fulfilling the Great Commission that our Savior King gave us to make disciples.Next Steps • Accept the salvation that came through the death and resurrection of Jesus.• Take an active step to begin living a “Great Commission Lifestyle” by seeing your purpose as a child of the King who consistently point people to Him with your witness (life, testimony, and clear presentation of the gospel).This Week's Growth GuideGod's Word is both central and critical to your spiritual growth.

Home Church Questions • Scott Duvall and Danny Hays write, “Matthew emphasizes Jesus's teachings. The five discourses highlight what it means to be a Christ follower today. God expects us to live a certain way (5–7), to be mission-driven (10), to be kingdom-centered (13), to relate to one another with humility and forgiveness (18), and to be faithful as we wait for Jesus to return (24–25). If you're looking for direction and structure in your walk with God, these five discourses have much to offer.”• Choose one of the teaching sections of Jesus in Matthew and read it in the group.• What is it about the message you chose that captured your attention?• What clear lesson can you take away as a disciple who is following Jesus?• What about Ken's presentation of Matthew was most helpful and orienting to you?• Is there an obvious application for you personally? How will you take a step forward related to this?• Read the “Great Commission” in Matthew 28:16-20. How can you be faithful to apply this and not just watch others apply?

Whether talking about the dimensions of the temple or land allotments, Dr. Hays constantly points us back to the emphasis all of Ezekiel has been building on—the presence of God. As we prepare for Holy Week, listen in as they constantly point out the themes in Ezekiel we see throughout Scripture from Genesis to Revelation.

Race relations and systemic racism has been one of the dominant conversations in America over the past few months. We see divisions over this topic in the media, social networking, and even in the church. Sadly, even Christians cannot find agreement in much of the fundamental elements of this conversation. In this episode, we will be asking an even more foundational question of the Bible. In order to better understand what it has to say about racism and racial reconciliation, we first need to ask what the Bible has to say about race. Check out this episode and the show notes below for some surprising answers to our question for today. Show Notes The Bible's view of race and humanity must begin with the creation account in Genesis 1-2. The Bible proclaims that every human being was made in the image of God and is therefore endowed with dignity and value. The creation account also tells us that all of humanity has a common origin in the individuals Adam and Eve. According to the Smithsonian, all of the differences that exist between people only account for a .1% variance in our genes. In other words, all human beings are 99.99% genetically identical. More biblical categorization for thinking of human diversity is to think of people in ethnic, national, and cultural groups. Ethnic strife and “racism” has always existed between people groups, but the concept of “race” was not introduced until the 1600s by Francois Bernier. The thesis that different “races” of people descended from various origins (polygenesis) became the foundation for atrocities such as the abuses of indigenous peoples, American chattel slavery, and Nazi Germany. In seeking to hold a biblical view of race, we should avoid the two ditches of either critical theory or colorblindness. Resources For an excellent, brief overview of the biblical view of race see “What does the Bible say about race?” by Dr. J. Danny Hays. Dr. Voddie Baucham addressed the two ditches of critical theory and colorblindness in his magnificent message “Ethnic Gnosticism” at the Founders YouTube channel. A good explanation of the biblical position that all of humanity is descended from Adam and Even can be found at “Only One Biological Race” with Ken Ham. For a historical explanation of how race became institutionalized in American chattel slavery, see The Color of Compromise by Jemar Tisby. Read about the history of the concept of race and a more philosophical treatment of the subject in the “Race” article of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
