Introduction to Matthew. Unbelievable mercy to unbelievable sinners: Reign of God.

Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio

Rev. Dr. Jeffrey Gibbs, professor emeritus of exegetical theology at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, and author of the three Concordia Commentary volumes on Matthew, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to introduce the Gospel of Matthew. Find the Commentaries on Matthew at cph.org.

Christ’s Reign has come. Christ’s reign continues. His reign is coming. His mercy is beyond our understanding as we commit sins. Since He is the king, we are not. Since He is strong, I am weak. He is the greatest, therefore we are needy. We begin our study of Matthew seeing how our Lord Jesus’ mercy is beyond our comprehension and we simply receive the grace He gives. “Lord God, give us Your Holy Spirit to read, mark, and inwardly digest the gift of Matthew’s Gospel to grow in Christ and for the comfort of our souls. In Him, Amen”
