30 Nov 2008 Matthew (Program #37)

Matthew (Program #37) - The Establishment of the King’s Rejection (5)

One day Jesus opened up to His disciples and began to speak to them about the kingdom by way of parables.   These parables seems to be simple stories that convey basic aspects of the kingdom of God.  But in truth, they are profound to the uttermost and the truth that they convey are anything but simple.  The rich and deep features of the kingdom of the heavens await any blessed ones with eyes to see and ears to  hear.  As we look at the first of these great parables in Matthew chapter 13.

Today we begin the topic “The Life and Work that Changed the Age”.  To begin, Witness Lee notes the disparity between man’s condition in Genesis 1 and Genesis 6 in relationship to God’s eternal economy.   What is the meaning of “God’s eternal economy?”…

Matthew (Program #36) - The Establishment of the King’s Rejection (4)

Matthew chapter 5, 6 and 7 are three very crucial chapters in the New Testament that show us not just proper Christian behavior but the reality of the kingdom of the heavens.  To understand this is crucial when we come to see the kingdom of the heavens in its appearance in Matthew 13.

Matthew (Program #35) - The Establishment of the King’s Rejection (3)

Matthew chapter 12 is the account among other things of an ongoing confrontation between the Lord Jesus and His reglious opposers.  Their subtle arguments however, simply afford the Son of Man opportunity after opportunity, not only to defeat them but also to reveal more and more about His kingdom.

27 Nov 2008 Matthew (Program #34)

Matthew (Program #34) - The Establishment of the King’s Rejection (2)

The gospel of Matthew reveals the kingdom of God.  This kingdom is the sphere or realm of God’s ruling and it has fully existed in the heavens from eternity.   But the real burden of this book is to show us that God’s desire is not just to have His kingdom in the heavens but for the reality of this kingdom to come to earth.  Getting God’s kingdom to earth is no simple matter.  Today we will see that it cannot come without the fighting and warring of His people against His enemy.

As we look at spiritual warfare from Matthew 12…

27 Nov 2008 Genesis (Program #34)

Genesis (Program #34) - The Third Fall of Man (2)

Today is the second message from the first part of Genesis 6 and a very deep interpretation of the events of that time.   This is a deep section, much deeper than we may realize from a casual reading.   Today we are going to hear about Nephilim and illegal marriage between fallen angels and the daughters of men.  And also a reference to a book that we have quoted from previously in our life study by a man named G. H. Pember.

Matthew (Program #33) - The Establishment of the King’s Rejection (1)

Matthew chapter 11 concludes with the Lord Jesus calling all the ones that are burdened and toil to come to Him for rest; “My yoke is easy and My burden is light”.  This is His promise.  This wonderful promise is then followed by sequence of events that brings in the complete rejection of the King by the religious leaders of Judaism.  We will look how all these events are actually very closely related on this program today.
