I don’t quite get the logic in 13:13. If the reason he speaks in parables is because the people will not perceive or understand, doesn’t that mean would be free to speak plainly (given the crowd would not understand either way?). I think it is interesting in v15 that God could clearly present the secrets … Continue reading "Matthew 13 Q&A with Tim Rowe"
Still wondering why Jesus changed “me” to “you” in quoting Malachi 3:1 passage What is meant by the end of Matthew 11:19; “Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds”? How should we understand 11:22,24? Does Jesus mean that those who hear and reject the gospel will be judged and punished more harshly than those who … Continue reading "Matthew 11-12 Q&A with Tim Rowe"
How does this being said pre-cross change its meaning for us relative to the disciples if it all? If not why does it not change? Central truth? I wonder if V16-25 is about future generations since v 1, 23 seem very specific to now. Perhaps v21-22 seems to be the future (after Jesus’ death & … Continue reading "Matthew 10 Q&A with Tim Rowe"
“When it says “This was to fulfil what was spoken…” does that mean Jesus did that only for that reason?” “Why does Jesus describe the apostles as being of little faith? Don’t they believe that Jesus can save them from the storm? Why would they ask him to save them if this is not the … Continue reading "Matthew 8:1-9:34 Q&A with Tim Rowe"
What would be the “speck” in Jesus’ eye? Throughout the sermon on the mount, we’ve seen that everything is about Jesus. But how can we have other applications from other than just “we need Jesus because he fulfills it, he’s the only that’s righteous.”? Mat 7:21-23 how does this go with Romans 10:9 if you … Continue reading "Matthew 7 Q&A with Carl Matthei"
V1: What is the reward? Is it our salvation? Do we already have the reward then? Does Matt 6:12 actually written that way, because Jesus is yet to die & rise again. V14-15 seems to provide a different reason. “neither will your Father forgive your trespasses”. So you must forgive others first, before you will … Continue reading "Matthew 6:1-18 Q&A with Carl Matthei"
1. Psalm 139:21-22 – is that not saying “hate your enemies”? 2. Matt 5:29-30 – Ok yes we are forgiven by Jesus this side of the cross, but are we not still meant to take sin seriously? How does v29-30 meaning change pre vs post cross? Why would Jesus command Jewish ppl to eg. cut … Continue reading "Matthew 5:17-48 Q&A with Carl Matthei"
Great talk! Really interesting take on the salt! Is it wrong to still think about salt in these ways? (analogies/ ?in something time) On lowkey it’s like eisegesis? “The “upside down kingdom” is a common lens of interpretation many preachers have. Is it valid to say the sermon on the mount is a guide for … Continue reading "Matthew 5:1-16 Q&A with Carl Matthei"
