Scott continues his study of Matthew, exploring the profound concept of spiritual sanctification. He discusses that while believers are saved by grace, they continually battle sin and need daily practices such as confession and repentance. Scott also talks about the values of the world with the virtues encouraged in Christianity, such as gentleness, meekness, and righteousness, explaining how these spiritual virtues often lead to persecution in a world that rejects them. He emphasizes that rather than softening religious messages, true joy and blessings come from being poor in spirit and steadfast in faith, even in the face of adversity.

Scott also discusses the promises of the kingdom of God, highlighting key assurances such as comfort, mercy, and seeing God. Through references to biblical passages like Exodus 33 and John 3, he explains the intimacy and eternal inheritance promised to believers. He also covers the importance of living by faith and prioritizing the values of the kingdom of God over worldly achievements.
