Is the kingdom of God the most valuable thing in your life? What thing, what activity, what person, what in your life is competing with the kingdom of God?
How can we see the kingdom of God as it is? As the most valuable and worthy things of our life?
1. It begins a humbleness before Jesus and His word. Trusting with all your heart and life, that Jesus is who he says he is, and God’s kingdom is the way Jesus explains it.
1. Following Jesus is worth everything (44-46).
2. Heed the warning of rejecting Jesus (47-50).
3. Teachers of old and new (51-52)
4. Hometown rejection (53-58)
