Matthew chapter 10 takes the Gospel message in a direction that most would not expect as Jesus shares His authority and reveals that there is a cost for following jesus. Jesus shares his divine authority with his followers but that means each and every one of us has a responsibility to use it and must accept the cost of carrying it. The corrupt powers of the world do not want to be overturned, even by God, and followers of Jesus can expect to be just as hated as Jesus was. But take heart, in the end, the truth will be revealed and those who remain faithful will receive the greatest gift of all! Overthrowing the broken powers of this world has its price. That's the gift and the cost of discipleship. Learn more in this Bible study on Matthew Chapter 10.
