Matthew's Gospel serves as a bridge connecting Old Testament promises to their fulfillment in Jesus Christ, deliberately placed first in the New Testament to show continuity in God's redemptive plan.
• The word "gospel" means "good news" - the four gospels each present Jesus from different perspectives
• Matthew, a former tax collector called by Jesus, wrote primarily for a Jewish audience
• Jesus eating with "tax collectors and sinners" at Matthew's house demonstrated the gospel message in action
• Five major teaching sections form the structure of Matthew's gospel
• The Sermon on the Mount (chapters 5-7) establishes the values of God's kingdom
• Jesus repeatedly fulfills Old Testament prophecies, confirming his identity as Messiah
• The genealogy includes Gentile women, showing Jesus is King of all nations
• Matthew ends with the Great Commission to make disciples of all nations
• The gospel challenges us to live as citizens of God's kingdom with transformed hearts
