The Gospel of Matthew
$20.00
While the Gospel of Matthew focuses on Christ as King, it also provides kingly advice for His loyal subjects that was given to help them to enjoy their lives in this world. For example, in addition to revealing truths about the Lord’s genealogy, His baptism and temptation, the King of Kings also gave practical teachings on a wide variety of helpful topics.
Chapter 5 gives a description of true happiness. Happiness is found in humility (v. 3), in being broken (v. 4), in learning patience (v. 5), in a desire to change (v. 6), in practicing forgiveness (v. 7), in being consumed with godly living (v. 8), in becoming a problem-solver (v. 9), in doing right (vv. 10-12), and in choosing to be a blessing to others (v. 13).
In the same chapter, the Lord reveals what it will cost a person to achieve this kind of happiness. More than anything else, it will only come through choosing the right kind of attitude. A happy individual will posses a right attitude towards the Bible (vv. 17-18), towards conflict (v. 25), towards sin (vv. 27-28), towards marriage (v. 31), towards our testimony (vv. 33-34), and towards our debts (vv. 39-42).
In other words, Matthew is not simply highlighting the power of Christ as the King of Kings but is also revealing the King’s desire to help His people in every area of their lives.

This book is nicely laid out. The information is useful and is set up in a nice, outlined format. It would be easy to teach from this book, if that is what you are looking to use it for. It has worked as a great textbook for my classes here at BCA. I definitely recommend this book.
