A Sermon for the Feast of St. Matthew St. Matthew 9:9-13 and 2 Corinthians 4:1-6 by William Klock “As Jesus was leaving that place, he saw a man called Matthew sitting in the toll booth.” I expect that Matthew was just itching to get to this part of the story as he wrote his gospel account. It's nine chapters in, roughly a third of the way. But he knew that the Gospel is about Jesus, not Matthew. Still, he was excited to tell people how he had met Jesus. Up to this point, Matthew's been telling us about walking around Galilee preaching good news and doing all the Messiah things that made the good news real and tangible to people. He's been across the Sea of Galilee where he cast a multitude of demons out of a man and now he's back and on his way home to Capernaum. And that's how he meets Matthew. Matthew's a tax- or a toll-collector and here he is, sitting in his tollbooth next to the road. I suppose there must have been some kind of gate. Matthew would get up from his stool, go out to the road, and collect the toll from everyone going from Point A to Point B and from Point B to Point A. And everyone who went by grudgingly handed over their money. And they grumbled. And probably not a few people had some choice words for Matthew. Because everybody hated tax collectors. I was racking my brain this week trying to think of an example from our world that would explain just how much people hated tax-collectors and why and it's hard to think of a modern equivalent. That was a different world. No one likes a tax-collector, because no one likes paying taxes. But in First Century Judaea there was way more to it than just people not liking paying taxes. The local Roman government decided how much they would need to run things and then they'd farm the collection of taxes out to the highest bidder. And, of course, the tax collectors had to make a living themselves, so they'd pad their collection. But they weren't just getting by. Tax collectors were notorious for using their position to enrich themselves. And the local council or governor didn't care just so long as they got their cut of the revenue. It was bad enough and common enough that when the rabbis wrote about tax collectors, they typically lumped them together with thieves. And it only made it worse when the tax collectors were working for the Romans. We don't know if Matthew was working directly for the Romans or for some local Galilean authority, but at the end of the day it didn't really matter. At some level the Romans were in charge of it all and tax collectors were thieves doing their dirty work. But there's more to it than that. We think of Matthew, padding his toll collecting and getting rich by stealing from people whom he's got over a barrel and we think he's a pretty rotten guy. That's an awful thing to do. That's a scummy way to make your money. But for the Jews there was another layer, something deeper to what made it so horrible, what made them hate someone like Matthew so much. Let me try to explain. So, if you or I hear about a thief—or maybe a crooked tax collector skimming off the top—we just think, “That's a bad person”. If we found out that this thief had been baptised and grew up going to church and Sunday school, we'd think something like, “I guess he forgot everything he was taught as a kid.” Maybe if it came out he was an active warden or elder or deacon in his church, then we might start to think about what he'd done as a betrayal not just of his faith, but of us all. Here's a guy who professed faith in Jesus, but betrayed that faith by doing something really sinful. And maybe that gets us closer to how Matthew's fellow Jews would have thought about him. Because Matthew was circumcised. Matthew was part of the covenant community. Matthew was marked out as one of the Lord's people. And Matthew knew their story. Matthew knew all about the Lord and how he had delivered his ancestors from Egypt. Matthew knew all the great things the Lord had done in the centuries that followed. We can kind of excuse some people today. We all know people who were baptised, but they were never really taught the faith, their parents never really took them to church, now they're grown up and say they're an atheist, and the sinful lifestyle they live kind of makes sense in light of all that. But that wasn't Matthew. That wasn't anyone in Israel. Everyone knew what it meant to be God's people. There were no atheists. They all knew that God hates sin. They knew what it meant to be the people who lived with God in their midst. They knew that you had not only to be holy to enter God's temple, but that you also had to be pure. That's what set them apart from the pagans. Matthew knew all of this. Even if he he'd had rotten parenting, everything and everyone around him would have reinforced all of this. And he rejected it. Maybe he chose this life on his own. Maybe he inherited the job from his father who inherited it from his father. That probably would have made it easier. But whatever the case Matthew chose to live a life in apposition to everything his family, his people, and his nation stood for and he chose to do it right in the midst of them. Imagine an Amish boy who decides he doesn't want to be Amish anymore. Usually they leave and go to live in the outside world, but imagine this Amish kid decided to stay in his close-knit Amish town, but he struts around in fancy clothes, whips around town in his Porsche, and throws wild parties with loud music at his house on the weekends. And everyone would be horrified at him. That's Matthew, a tax-collector in Israel. But it gets worse. Or at least I think it does. Not everyone would agree with me on this part. Mark and Luke, in their Gospels, refer to Matthew by the name of “Levi”. Christian tradition has mostly understood Matthew and Levi to be the same person, but to make this connection is not without its difficulties. One of those difficulties is that it was pretty rare for a Jewish person to have two Aramaic names. A Jewish name and Greek name? Like Saul of Tarsus who is also known as Paul: that's common. But usually if someone with an Aramaic name has a second Aramaic name, it's because their given name is common, like John or Judas or Joshua, and the second name—maybe the name of his father—distinguishes him from other guys with the same name. But neither Matthew nor Levi were common names. No one was likely to confuse this Matthew with another Matthew. But the one instance in which we see men with two Aramaic names is when they come from prominent families. It wasn't uncommon for these men to be known by their family names. And I think that's what has happened with Matthew. Mark and Luke remember him as “Levi”—his family name—but Matthew went by his given name. Because the family name Levi mean that they were a Levitical family. And this made things all the worse for Matthew. The tribe of Levi were the priestly family. They were the ones who served in the temple. They were the ones who acted as mediators between the Lord and his people. Israel was a holy people, but the Levites were a holy tribe within that holy people. Consider that one of the duties of the Levites was the collection of taxes. They collected the tithes of Israel. Those tithes were their livelihood. And they collected the temple tax, to pay for the upkeep of the Lord's house. But Matthew had become a tax collector of another kind, not one dependent on the Lord and the faithfulness of his people, but a man who fleeced God's people in collusion with the pagans. Brothers and Sisters, that was Matthew sitting in his toll-booth. A wealthy traitor not only to the Lord, but to his people and to his family and to his calling and despised by everyone. I fully expect there were days when Matthew longed to get out of the mess he was in. In theory he could have made everything right and returned to the Lord, but to do that he'd have had to make restitution. I don't think Matthew would have even known where to begin. And so he stayed in his toll-booth, he kept his riches, and he threw parties for other tax collectors and sinners—because they were the only people who would associate with him. And every day he became a little bit more dead inside. And then, this day, along came Jesus. Matthew knew perfectly well who Jesus was. Everyone in Galilee was talking about Jesus. If nothing else, Matthew would have heard about his miracles, but I expect he'd heard about his preaching, too. Maybe Matthew had even stood at a distance a time or two in Capernaum to hear Jesus preach. Matthew knew that in Jesus the God of Israel was doing something. But Matthew stayed at a distance. Because Matthew knew he was a traitor to his God and to his people and to his covenant. As attractive as Jesus and his message were, it was not for someone like Matthew. Brothers and Sisters, how many people around us feel just like that? They're sinners. They feel the weight of it and would love for it to be gone. They've got some vague knowledge of Jesus. But they'd never come to church. A coworker once said to me, “Church is for holy people, not for people like me.” They see no way out. And now Matthew sees Jesus approaching his gate. Maybe he thought, “This might be the Messiah. I should really cut him a break instead of ripping him off like I do everyone else.” And that's when, he writes in verse 9, Jesus “said to him, ‘Follow me.'” And he just says, “And he rose up and follow him.” I have to think there was at least a little bit more to it than that. But those words, “Follow me” were ultimately what did it for Matthew. No Pharisee, no scribe, no lawyer had ever come to Matthew and said, “Follow me, Brother. Let me help you get out of your sins.” They paid his extortionate toll, dropping their coin in the toll-box and being extra careful not to touch it or anything else that Matthew had touched. They sneered at him—if they looked at him at all—called him “traitor”, and went on their way. But this Jesus, this man in whom the God his fathers was so clearly at work doing something new, Jesus smiled and invited him to join in what he was doing. Brothers and Sisters, sometimes that's all it takes. Matthew had seen God's glory on display in Jesus, but he didn't think it was for him. He just needed to hear that, yes, in fact it was for him—for everyone, but especially for people like him. That was actually part of the new thing Jesus was doing. Without Jesus, reconciliation with is people was hopeless. He was a toll-collector. How could he ever make things right with everyone he'd ever stolen from? How could he even make a good faith effort? But in those words, “Follow me,” Jesus offered Matthew forgiveness. Jesus bypassed the temple, because he is the new temple himself; he bypassed the priests, because he is our new priest; and he bypassed the sacrifices and the law of restitution, because he is the full, perfect, and sufficient sacrifice, oblation, and satisfaction for the sins of Israel and the whole world. Jesus simply held out forgiveness and reconciliation to Matthew. All Matthew had to do was leave his tollbooth behind—that's repentance—and follow Jesus. And, Matthew says, that's just what he did. “He rose up and followed him.” He “rose up”. I think Matthew chose that language deliberately. It's resurrection language. When he decided to trust Jesus—and that's just what it was: trust and loyalty and allegiance—he was raised up out of his sin, he was raised up out of his alienation from God and from his people, and he was given his life back. And not just given back his old life, Jesus gave him something even better. He lifted Matthew up out of the life this evil age of sin and death and gave him a taste and a promise of the age to come, of new creation, of the Holy Spirit, and of the fellowship with God that his people had been so longing for. And, too, Jesus restores to Matthew his birthright as a Levite. As the Levites mediated the Lord to his people, so Matthew now brings the good news about Jesus to his people. In verse 10 he immediately takes us to his house. “When he was at home,” he writes, “sitting down to a meal, there were lots of tax-collectors and sinners there who had come to have dinner with Jesus and his disciples.” Other tax collectors and sinners were the only people who hang around with Matthew. Matthew knew that some of them felt the same way he did. They were traitors to the Lord and traitors to his people. They were hopelessly lost sheep. There was no way out. But Matthew had found it—or, rather, the way out had found him. And so he invites his friends to meet Jesus. They'd heard and seen him doing amazing things. Like Matthew, they'd been on the fringe. If the priest and Levites—not to mention everyone else in Israel—condemned them and kept apart from them, the Messiah certainly wasn't for them. But here he was and Jesus was saying the same thing to them that he'd said to Matthew: “Follow me.” And, I expect, at least some of them did. And Jesus and the disciples rejoiced with those people because they knew that heaven itself was rejoicing too. But there were always the Pharisees. Matthew writes that when they “saw it, they said to Jesus' disciples, ‘Why does your teacher eat with tax-collectors and sinners?' But Jesus heard them. ‘It isn't the healthy who need a doctor,' he said, ‘it's the sick. Go and learn what this saying means: “It's mercy I want, not sacrifice.” I haven't come to call upright people, but sinners.'” Like Paul says in our Epistle today, there was a veil over their eyes. The Pharisees were sick in their own ways, and Jesus exposed their sickness by going to the tax-collectors and sinners. When they complain about it, he quotes the words the Lord had spoken to Isaiah. We heard those words last week when our Gospel was the parable of the good Samaritan—Hosea 6 turned into a story. The problem was that the people lacked the heart of God. The sinners devoted to their sinning, the greedy tax-collectors ripping everyone off, and the Pharisees too—almost everyone in Israel—was far from God. His absence from the temple all those years was a metaphor for Israel's problem. Even those who were devoted to the law and who were “religious” about their tithing and their sabbaths and their diet and their sacrifices, were no closer to God than the prostitute or the tax-collector. And so Jesus came to the sinners with God's mercy—because they so desperately needed it—and he gave it to them in front of the watching scribes and Pharisees and all the “upright” people in Israel so that they could see that they needed to learn that same mercy and know it themselves. It was that mercy that reached Matthew. It was that mercy that reached Paul and lifted the veil from his eyes. And it was that mercy, made manifest in Jesus, that both Paul and Matthew proclaimed. It was this mercy that's at the centre of the Gospel that Matthew wrote to his people. And it's this same mercy that Paul preached. In today's Epistle from 2 Corinthians 4, he writes that it's this mercy that drives him forward despite all the obstacles. “The ‘god' of this world has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they won't see the light of the gospel of the glory of the Messiah, who is God's image.” So what's the solution? Paul writes, “We don't proclaim ourselves, you see, but Jesus the Messiah as Lord…because the God who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,' has shone in our hearts, to produce the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus the Messiah.” Brothers and Sisters, Paul—and Matthew, for that matter—knew that it wouldn't be gimmicks or tricks or fancy speaking or trying to make God's word palatable to sinners that would lift the veil from the eyes of unbelievers. It would be the proclamation of the good news about Jesus. That light—the glory of God in the face of the Messiah as Paul describes it—that light met Matthew in the darkness of his tollbooth. That light met Paul on the road to Damascus. And it lifted the veil. It dispelled the darkness. It cast out the ‘god' of this world who enslaves us to sin and death and makes us to think there's no hope of escape. The light of the glory of God revealed in the good news of Jesus the Messiah is the answer and the only answer. It's our hope and our only hope. We too often try those other things. We water down God's word to try to make it less offensives. We try gimmicks or we try programmes. But Brothers and Sisters, we should know better. The Lord has promised that one day the knowledge of his glory will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea and that will happen because and only because his people have been faithful to proclaim his glory revealed in Jesus the Messiah who died and rose again. Brothers and Sisters, don't be afraid. Don't question whether it'll work or not. If the light of the gospel could tear down the veil that once had you blinded, if it could break the chains of sin that once bound you, it will tear down the veils that blind and it will break the chains that bind the rest of the world. Just proclaim it. Jesus has died and Jesus has risen, not just for you or for me or for holy people, but for sinners—for everyone. He holds out his hand to us wherever we are and invites us to leave it all behind, to follow him, and to rise to new life. Let's pray: O almighty God, whose beloved Son called Matthew from his tollbooth to be an apostle and evangelist: Set us free from the chains of our sins to follow and to proclaim your Son Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Send us a textII Corinthians 1Paul begins his second letter to the Corinthians by praising God as the source of all comfort during times of affliction. He shares his own sufferings, explaining that trials teach reliance on God rather than on oneself. Paul assures the Corinthians that just as they participate in suffering, they will also receive God's comfort. He recalls a life-threatening experience in Asia, where he “despaired of life” but was delivered through God's power. Paul emphasizes the importance of prayer, illustrating how the appeals to God by saints contributed to his deliverance. He then defends his integrity, stating that his words of exhortation and sacrificial actions are sincere and guided by Christ. Paul concludes by affirming that God has sealed believers with the Holy Spirit, ensuring their eternal security in Christ.Our God is the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort. He cares for His children and feels for those enduring trials and losses. He offers eternal comfort through a relationship with Jesus Christ. God also provides comfort through His power to improve circumstances over time, as well as through the support and love of fellow believers. We can face all trials with confidence if we trust in God's abiding grace and the power of prayer to seek His mercy and assistance. To cultivate true hope, Paul taught the people about the loving Father, the reigning Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit within us. This remains the most essential and transformative message we can share with others. Mighty Father, we thank You for being the God of all comfort who strengthens us in every trial. When we face suffering, help us rely on You rather than ourselves. Remind us that just as Christ suffered, we too will encounter hardships, but through Him, we also receive untouchable and abiding hope. Teach us to share the comfort You provide with others, so we may encourage those in need. Strengthen our faith and remind us that Your promises are always true in Christ. Seal our hearts with Your Spirit and guide us to walk in trust and gratitude daily. Thought Questions: - What does it mean to say your Father is the “God of all comfort”? How does He help you maintain confidence and peace in times of affliction? - How does suffering teach you to rely on God over yourself? Is that a valuable process? And how does that affect your view of trials? - Paul states God always comes through on His promises (v20). What are some of those promises that fill you with hope in all circumstances?

The Filioque argument of 1054ad, between the Catholic and Orthodox churches, the controversy of “whether the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father, or the Father and the Son”, the filioque is “and the Son”. Catholicism says yes the Spirit proceeds from the Father and Son, but the Orthodox deny and call it false teaching that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Son.What I want to do here is step into this argument with a 3rd angle, and use Scripture alone to see how to answer this question. Because both Catholicism and Orthodoxy reject Scripture as authority, so I want to use Scripture alone and see whether or not this nigh thousand year old question of the Filioque can be settled.Message by Pastor Mat - July 27, 2025 Apologetics, Debate, Bible Discussions, Evangelism, and much moreTo know more on how to be saved, what are the requirements and such, please see our playlist on the Gospel and Eternal Security (assurance of salvation) - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3pJdCnnwrEeCQOCTTmDW1GjUYxpd44DG&si=_rT-lThl0klHt5Cd A Bible study on personal works and fruit bearing -"The mystic fruit bowl" Mark 7:5-23 - https://youtu.be/kw7QiLQMQ_M?si=eSOYcF1Ffco6-inI (Discussing discipleship) Bible study on Luke 9:60-62 "Let the dead bury the dead" - https://www.youtube.com/live/BkWtkOrEs-Q?si=y-zyqNGfWi3kzVu2 Our Ministries Website - https://christiancoffeetime.ca/ 1John 5:20) "And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ.

And I said, "A basket of summer fruit." Then the Lord said to me,"The end has come upon my people Israel; I will never again pass them by. The songs of the temple shall become wailings in that day," says the Lord God; "the dead bodies shall be many, cast out in every place. Be silent!"Hear this, you that trample on the needy, and bring to ruin the poor of the land, saying, "When will the new moon be over so that we may sell grain; and the sabbath, so that we may offer wheat for sale? We will make the ephah small and the shekel great, and practice deceit with false balances, buying the poor for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals, and selling the sweepings of the wheat."The Lord has sworn by the pride of Jacob: Surely I will never forget any of their deeds. Shall not the land tremble on this account, and everyone mourn who lives in it, and all of it rise like the Nile, and be tossed about and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?On that day, says the Lord God, I will make the sun go down at noon, and darken the earth in broad daylight. I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; I will bring sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on every head; I will make it like the mourning for an only son, and the end of it like a bitter day.The time is surely coming, says the Lord God, when I will send a famine on the land; not a famine of bread, or a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. They shall wander from sea to sea, and...
