As the large crowds followed Jesus, wandering if He were the Messiah who would bring about the kingdom, Jesus led them to a mountain and began to teach them. The essence of His teachings in this video deals with who is qualified to enter the kingdom of the Messiah. Jesus answered that as those who look to Him for their spiritual needs and are willing to suffer on account of their faith in Him. He continued on informing them of their purpose in this world - to preserve and give revelation of God. Then He tells them that He will fulfill the Law of Moses and that one day it will pass away. Finally, He warned the people not to have an external righteous (alone) like the pharisees if they hoped to enter His kingdom.

We all know that the Scripture teaches that God “shows no partiality”. This is a brief lesson as we take a closer look at that word in the original Greek text of the New Testament that states that fact - Romans 2:11.

After Jesus passed His test in the temptation in the wilderness, He is now ready to begin His public ministry. He sets up His headquarters in Capernaum and then chooses the first of His disciples. He began going about Galilee announcing that He is the Messiah, proving this with great signs and wonders of miraculous healings. As He preaches, teaches and perform these signs, large crowds begin to follow Him.

The temptations of Jesus. Jesus is led into a deserted place by God to undergo a specific period of testing. He will be tested infall three categories of sin (lust of the flesh, eyes and pride), but will not yield to Satan. His victory will prove that He alone indeed is the true Son of God and set the example for us in how to have victory over temptations.

John the Baptist begins his ministry of preparing a people to receive the Messiah when He comes by baptizing. Although a simple prophet/preacher, he is powerful and draws many from far and wide to his ministry. Upon noticing a delegation of religious leaders, John admonished them to repent upon the threat of being cast into Hell by the Messiah. Later, Jesus came to John to be baptized. But John thought this to be unacceptable. However, after Jesus explained it to John, he baptized Him. When Jesus arose from the waters of baptism, the Holy Spirit descended upon Him and God spoke from heaven of His pleasure in Him.

It is very important to understand how the New Testament writers quoted the Old, because sometimes there is confusion in HOW the quote is being used and worse than that, there might be an error in the New Testament. This video is to help you understand how the New Testament authors as well as 1st century rabbis would interpret Old Testament prophecies.

Matthew chapter 2 continues dealing with the early childhood of Jesus with the visitation of the Babylonian magi. However, the star that once led them has disappeared; so, they go to the naturally expected birth of a king, Jerusalem. Herod questions his scribes and priests if there is such a prophecy. They affirm this, quoting Malachi. Herod calls the magi and gives them this information and asks them to report back once they find the Messiah-child. The star reappears and guides the magi to Joseph’s house where they worship Him and bring Him gifts. They then depart a different way from which they came. This enraged Herod and he sends to kill all babies 2 years and under in Bethlehem. God also warns Joseph to take Mary and Jesus to Egypt because Herod will attempt to kill Him.  After Herod dies, God calls Joseph to return to Israel and raise Jesus in Nazareth.

We continue this study with the birth of Jesus, the Messiah and answer the question of “how can Jesus have a right to Jehoichan’s (Jeconiah) throne because of the curse of Jeremiah (22:28-30). And Matthew focus’s on the birth of Jesus from the perspective of Joseph, recounting his obedience to God and taking Mary to be his wife, despite her being with Child and the social stigma that would come.
