Matthew 7:1–6 (NASB95) 1 “Do not judge so that you will not be judged. 2 “For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you. 3 “Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 “Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and behold, the log is in your own eye? 5 “You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye. 6 “Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces. http://bible.com/events/49476074
By Jon Davies - Among some scholars, the actual author of the Gospel of Matthew is in question. Was it actually written by Matthew and, if so, when. Carefully investigation gives us these answers.
Our study begins in Matt.2:12. The wise men are warned by God not to return to King Herod. God warns Joseph to leave Bethlehem and go to Egypt. Why? Because King Herod wanted to kill God's Messiah. Matthew writes once again of fulfilled O.T. prophecy. Joseph went to Egypt and later brought Jesus back to Israel. "Out of Egypt I called by Son." (Hosea 11:1)But in unbelief, the King's actions fulfill prophecy in slaying living babies. What King Herod does is horrendous. Mt.2:17-18.People can and do fulfill Bible prophecy even in their unbelief and sin. So both Joseph and the king fulfilled Bible prophecy. One in faith and belief, the other in sin and unbelief. How are you fulfilling God's Word? As Dr. Mitchell says, What will you do with Jesus? Do you want Him as savior or judge?Please do trust Him.Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast in Matthew 2:12.
Mr. Tugrul Kaya (Timothy Position) continues the Matthew series on Kingdom Righteousness from Matthew 19:16-20:34.
Our study begins in Matthew chapter 2.In this chapter, where Jesus is born is of great importance. Why? Because even where Jesus is born fulfills an O.T. prophecy found in Micah 5:2. Matthew wants us to know that this Jesus is God's promised and foretold Messiah. He fulfills this prophecy that tells us where the Messiah was born, that is Bethlehem Ephrata of Judea, in the south, not in the other Bethlehem in the north of Israel. God's prophetical Word is precise and detailed even to the exact city where the savior was to be born.The wise men came to worship the King of the Jews. The Jewish leaders who knew the Scripture as to where the Messiah was to be born, didn't come to worship Him, but the gentile wise-men who came from the east did. What a contrast. Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Matthew 2.
Dr. Mitchell begins an exposition of the Gospel of Matthew starting chapter 1. The goal of Matthew in writing his gospel is to present Jesus, the Messiah, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham, the Son of God, the Son of Man.Dr. Mitchell points out the four women who were untypically included in Jesus' 14 generations of genealogy, with Mary being the fifth woman mentioned. Dr. Mitchell tells us of the birth of Jesus Christ. The doubt of Joseph and the conception of the savior through the virgin whose name was Mary is found here. Jesus, right at His birth, fulfilled the O.T. prophecy found in Isaiah 7. And here, the savior is given His human name, Jesus, being Immanuel, God with us who would save his people from their sins. Here is Dr. Mitchell, Matthew 1, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
Before speaking on the book of Matthew, Dr. Mitchell shares this overview of the four gospels of the New Testament, Matthew, Mark,Luke and John. He shares the various contrasts and comparisons between these four Gospels.Each of the four Gospels present the savior from a distinct perspective unique to the purpose that God, by the Holy Spirit directed each author to write. With each one, being inspired by God, we can be sure we have God's own Words in the words of these authors of the Gospels. Paul would write later in 2Tim.3:16 saying, "All Scripture is inspired -- God breathed -- and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction for instruction in righteousness that the man of God may be competent, fully equipped for every good work." Let's listen as Dr. Mitchell shares the Word of God here on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Matthew 1.
If you want to become the greatest, you must become the very least.
Thank you being here with us on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast with Dr. John G. Mitchell who will begin shepherding us through the Gospel of Matthew. So, in this introductory study, Dr. Mitchell first begins with an overview of the four gospels found in the New Testament Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.Each Gospel presents the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ, but each from a distinct perspective.In our Bible, let's turn to Matthew chapter 1 with Dr. Mitchell, here on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
Ever feel like the world is falling apart—and you have no idea where to start?This week, Melody Workman reminds us that real change doesn't come from having all the answers; it comes from showing up with compassion and a willingness to act.Jesus didn't shame people into change. He saw them—confused, hurting, overlooked—and had compassion. That's the kind of person we're invited to be.The mission isn't somewhere “out there.” It's here. It's now. And it might just start with you.--Support content like this and the vision of Sandals Church at http://sandalschurch.com/support/Join our email list for content updates: http://sandalschurch.com/subscribeDownload the Sandals Church App: http://sandalschurch.com/app/If you have questions, need prayer or want to get connected, please email us anytime at online@sandalschurch.com!4

Sometimes following Jesus means doing the right thing, even when you don't have to.
Have you ever felt like you're doing all the right things—but something still feels off? Like you're surviving, but not really living?In this week's message, Pastor Fredo Ramos shares powerful stories of people who were desperate for change—and the surprising ways they found it.

It's about what happens when we finally stop pretending and get real with our need. Whether you're feeling stuck, skeptical, or just tired of going through the motions—this one's for you.--Support content like this and the vision of Sandals Church at http://sandalschurch.com/support/Join our email list for content updates: http://sandalschurch.com/subscribeDownload the Sandals Church App: http://sandalschurch.com/app/If you have questions, need prayer or want to get connected, please email us anytime at online@sandalschurch.com!

Jesus sends His disciples into the world not with ease, but with purpose—and a warning: “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves.” In this powerful message from Matthew 10:16–23, we explore what it means to be commissioned by Christ into a world that may reject us. Expect resistance, Jesus says, but do not be afraid. You are not alone—the Spirit of the Father will speak through you. We dive into why opposition rises when we truly follow Jesus, what it can lead to, and how we're called to respond with wisdom, innocence, and endurance. Whether facing rejection from strangers or betrayal from loved ones, Jesus calls us to stay faithful and urgent in bringing the good news. This message is a reminder that suffering for Christ's sake is not failure—it's part of the mission. And through it all, God's kingdom advances.

“Don’t store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves don’t break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. So if the light within you is darkness, how deep is that darkness! “No one can serve two masters, since either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” (Matthew 6:19–24, CSB)
In this message from Matthew 10, we explore how Jesus called and commissioned His twelve disciples—ordinary men with diverse backgrounds and flaws—empowering them with authority and purpose. Learn how their stories give us hope and challenge us to live sent lives. Jesus didn't call supervisors, He called laborers—people willing to say, “Here I am, Lord, send me.” This teaching encourages us to see people the way Jesus does, to share the gospel with boldness and compassion, and to trust God's provision in every step of obedience. You'll be reminded that you're called too—empowered, equipped, and sent into the world with His message.
