As we heard, Jesus calls His disciples to Himself. He speak about greatness in the kingdom of heaven.As His own examples shows us, He came not to be served to serve and to give His life a ransom for many. Paul would write in 1st Timothy 2:6 of our saviour, the man Christ Jesus, as being "a ransom for all". Jesus next shows us His servant's heart of compassion by opening the eyes of two blind men sitting outside of Jericho. These two men had loud enough voices to overcome the noise of the crowds who were telling them to be quiet.These men had persistence and faith in Jesus as the Son of David.Dr. Mitchell show us in the Gospel of John that we can pray to the Father Himself, who loves us, in Jesus name. On the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, here is Matthew 20:25-34 with Dr. Mitchell.
Our study continues in Mat.20:17. Jesus is on the road to Jerusalem along with His disciples.He takes this opportunity to tell the disciples once again that He would be crucified and raisedon the third day and who would be doing this to Him. Our Lord knew what was going to happen to Him. He was willing to fulfill what was written about Him, the Messiah, in the Scriptures.Next we see a good Jewish mother watching out for the future welfare of her two boys. Dr. Mitchell points out, as Jesus intimates, that there is suffering before there is glory. So it is here with our Saviour as well. Peter would later write that the O.T. prophets wrote, by the Spirit of Christ in them, of the sufferings of the Christ and the glories to follow.Here's Dr. Mitchell, Matthew 20:17-29, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
Dr. Mitchell will be teaching concerning the question of rewards. We begin in Matt.19:27.Peter asks Jesus what the disciples would gain by following Jesus. What would they get? Jesus then speaks with them about their future millenium responsibilities and privileges with the 12 tribes of the nation of Israel. This would be their reward then for following Him now.Jesus then relates a comparison between the kingdom of heaven and the steward of a house who hired men to work in the vineyard. The owner of the vineyard then generously paid everyone the same wage, whether they worked all day or just one hour. Here is God rewarding through agreement and God rewarding by His grace. God is gracious. Dr. Mitchell states, God rewards faithfulness to Him, not greatness before the world. Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible broadcast, Matthew 19:27 - 20:16.
In this lesson, Matthew 19:16-26 presented by the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, we continue with Jesus' dealing with the good moral man who sought entrance into eternal life. His problem was with God.Dr. Mitchell, turns briefly to the book of Luke to deal with a lawyer who had a similar question. Only this time, Jesus showed the lawyer that his problem was, not with God, but with his neighbor.The law only shows one how much one falls short of God's revealed and written standard. But, in these last days, God has spoken to us in His Son, Jesus Christ who lived out God's standards perfectly and sinlessly. Christ died, shedding His blood on the cross to vindicate God's righteousness. Now God can freely save anyone who trusts in His resurrected Son.Turn to Matthew 19:16 with Dr. Mitchell, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
In Matthew 19, we begin this lesson with verse 13. Two topics are dealt with in this study.The first Jesus' continuing concern for children. He prayed from them.The second topic is Jesus' conversation with a man wanting to know what good deed he could do to enter into eternal life.This section reveals the thinking of those who suppose they can please God and find His favor by doing good. The N.T. Scripture tells us that it is by grace we are saved through faith. It is not of works lest anyone should boast. Salvation is from the Lord Jesus Christ alone. The one who places faith in the crucified and risen Christ will be saved and have eternal life.Dr. Mitchell tells us that life cannot be inherited. Life only comes through relationship.Here is Matthew 19:10-20 with Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
Let's join the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast with Dr. John G. Mitchell in Mat.19:1-12.In this section, Jesus answers questions from the Pharisees. The first is "Is it lawful to divorce one's wife for any cause?"Here, in verses 4-6, Jesus shows us two things. First of all He answers these questions from the Scriptures by what God literally said. In doing so, Jesus quotes both chapter 1 and 2 of Genesis giving us His inspired interpretation and conclusion.The second question is,"Why did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce and to send her away?"Jesus gives the answer. He says it's not an command but a concession because of the hardness of the heart.Dr. Mitchell, also points our hearts and minds to what the Word of God says concerning these questions. Let's join him on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast in Matthew 19:1-12.
Along with Dr. Mitchell, we too thank you for your prayer support for the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast. It is encouraging and strengthening. Thank you!We are in Matthew 18, verse 21.Having dealt with a sinning brother in the assembly, Peter now asks Jesus, "How often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him." Jesus gives Peter the answer to his question. Jesus then gives an illustration of mercy and forgiveness.We need to be like God the Father in forgiveness. We are to be forgiving one another rather than exacting revenge or punishment for a similar or even a lesser offense. God is justly able to forgive anyone on the basis of the shed blood of Jesus Christ His Son on the cross. On the basis of Jesus' resurrection, God guarantees this forgiveness.Here is Dr. Mitchell, Mt.18:21, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
Jesus deals with His disciples with respect to children, and church discipline in Matthew 18 verses 10-20.Dr. Mitchell discusses the biblical basis for babies going to heaven. He cites 2Sam.12:22-23 concerning King David's baby that died. This truth is relevant to many in our day who have also lost a baby. Do you know someone who would be encouraged by this truth?Next, Dr. Mitchell examines verse 15-20 concerning governmental authority for the preservation of the testimony of the church to the glory of God. This is the second time our Lord speaks of the church in the book of Matthew. It concerns steps for confronting a sinning believer. Dr. Mitchell speaks about love at the expense of truth. Love does not rejoice in unrighteousness but rejoices with the truth.Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Matthew 18:10.
Beginning in Mt 17:22, Jesus announces once again His coming death and resurrection. As Dr. Mitchell notes, the promise of a present kingdom begins to fade from the hopes of these disciples. Jesus speaks of the cross rather than the crown for the immediate future. This distresses His disciples.In His conversation with Peter, Jesus shows His omniscience. He shows us this in two ways. The first is His question to Peter about the tax collectors. Then Jesus shows His omniscience by telling Peter where to find money to pay the tax.Dr. Mitchell exhorts us to obedience to the governing authorities particularly with regards to paying taxes. Next, we are exhorted to meekness and humility as little children. These qualities are in found in Jesus Himself who asks us to come to Him.Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Mt. 17:22
Dr. Mitchell now explores Mt.17:9-21 and Jesus' touch of omnipotence.After beholding the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ, Jesus and the disciples came down from the mountain.It was not the time for the disciples to speak of this vision to anyone. This would have to wait till after the resurrection of Christ. Peter didn't speak of it for another 30 some years later when he wrote of it in 2Peter chapter 1.Next, Jesus responds to questions from the disciples about the coming of Elijah. Later they understood John the Baptist had came in the spirit and power of Elijah.Our study continues with Jesus casting out a deaf and dumb demon. The boy's father, distraught and weak in faith, came to Jesus for help. Let's join Dr. Mitchell here on the Unchanging Word Bible broadcast, Mt.17:9.
Our study of Matthew's account of our Lord's transfiguration in glory is the focus of this study. This most likely occurred on Mount Hermon a few miles from Caesarea Philippi.Peter thought it was good to be here. Dr. Mitchell gives us Peter's response to what he was seeing and hearing and asks, "How did Peter know these men were Moses and Elijah? As a cloud comes over the disciples, a voice speaks out of the cloud from heaven to Jesus saying "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased".Then, God the Father, speaking to the disciples says, "You Listen to Him." Jesus is who God wants us to listen to. Do you do this? Do I do this?Is your Bible open as we read His Word? As you listen, He will speak to you.Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Matthew 17:1-8.
Matthew 17 verses 1-8 shows Jesus glorified before His disciples, Peter, James and John. They see and hear Moses and Elijah talking with Him. Dr. Mitchell discussed the doctrine, the test, and the time of the transfiguration. He now shares with us the theme of the transfiguration.In Luke's gospel account, Dr. Mitchell gives us the theme as being the death of the savior found in Luke chapter 9 verse 31. In Jesus' own words from the gospel of John, He says He had power to lay down His life and He had power to take it up again. This was the subject of the conversation between Jesus, Moses and Elijah in glory. Thru faith in Jesus Christ, eternal life is guaranteed. As we have read, Moses and Elijah are still alive with Jesus.Here, in Matthew 17:1-8, is Dr. Mitchell with the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
The Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast continues our study in Matthew 17 verses 1-8 with Dr. Mitchell.As has been said before, he is devoting five lessons to these 8 verses. These 8 verse speak of the transfiguration of our Lord Jesus with 3 of His disciples observing His glory. Both Moses and Elijah was seen by them talking with Jesus. As Luke tells us, they were speaking with Jesus about His soon departure, His exodus, that is, His death, burial and resurrection before ascending back to heaven. Dr. Mitchell turns to prophecy. He explains in detail God's plan throughout the ages of time with its certain and distinct responsibilities for man . At this present time in history, man is responsible to believe the gospel of Christ, being saved by grace thru faith in Him.Let's join Dr. Mitchell - Matthew 17 1:8.
The transfiguration of our Lord Jesus is the focus of our study in this and the following lessons. We are in Matthew chapter 17 verses 1-8. Peter was one of the Lord's disciples who saw Christ in His glory just as Jesus had said they would.Dr. Mitchell speaks of 2nd Peter 1:16-19 written by the Apostle Peter about this experience. Next, Dr. Mitchell gives us an overview of the lives of Moses and Elijah who appeared with Jesus. He shares the truth found in this passage relating it to the believer in Christ.Then, Dr. Mitchell points out the test of the transfiguration. What is this test? It has to dowith our Lord Jesus Christ in His Eternal Deity and His sinless humanity. Open to Matthew 17 with us here on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast. Let's join Dr. Mitchell.
The Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast continues our study of the book of Matthew, now in chapter 16:27.Our teacher, Dr. Mitchell, will teach five lessons on through to chapter 17 verse 8.These 10 verses cover the statement the Lord made to His disciples that "...there are some of those standing here who will never experience death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom."Dr. Mitchell says the coming of the Son of Man in the gospels always refers to Christ coming to the earth. This is different than the coming of the Lord from heaven for the church in the air. Dr. Mitchell spells out these distinctions very clearly and gives us the Biblical time-line before briefly venturing into chapter 17.Let's open our Bible to Matthew 16:27 for today's lesson with Dr. Mitchell.
Our study continues in Mat.16:24. Jesus speaks to His disciples about the cost of following Him in the midst of opposition. Dr. Mitchell speaks of this as the great privilege of following Christ. This means putting Him first and ourselves last. Jesus asks, "What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man gives in return for his soul?"Dr. Mitchell states that one cannot put a price on the value of a human soul. God put an eternal value on man's soul. He sent His eternal Son to die for your eternal soul.You are not a piece of trash to be bartered on the open market. Christ died for you dear friend because He esteems you to be of eternal value. Here is Dr. Mitchell with Matthew 16:24.
In our passage in this study, we hear Dr. Mitchellsaying that for the first time, Jesus announcesHis program. For the first time in the book ofMatthew, he presents Jesus declaring that He mustgo to Jerusalem and be killed and be raised again on the third day.As we read, we find that with this announcement, Jesus met opposition for one of his close disciples. But Jesus saw behind this disciple and rebukes its true origin. Do you face opposition in presenting the gospel or sharing your the testimony of your faith in Christ with friends and relatives?If they won't listen to you at this time, why not ask them to listen to the Unchanging Word here on this station?

We are glad you are here with us on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast with Dr. John G. Mitchell.We are in Matt.16 verses 18-20. Our study continues with the focus on our Savior and His interaction with the disciples concerning the revelation of His Person by the Father.In verse 17, Jesus reveals to Peter this revelation as being from His Father in heaven. In verse 18, Jesus said, upon this rock I will build My Church. This divine revelation of the Messiah by the Father is the rock upon which Jesus would build His church. When the Holy Spirit came from heaven in Acts 2 the church began through the preaching of Peter concerning this Jesus who was revealed to Peter by the Father.Paul and the N.T. apostles and prophets also built on this revealed foundation of Christ Himself. Let's join Dr. Mitchell here on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Mt.16:18.
Dr. Mitchell will be giving us a three point outline for verses in Mat.16:13-20. Jesus asked two questions. 1st was: who do people say the Son of Man is?The 2nd is: who do you say that I am?Peter gives the answer: You are the Christ the Sonof the living God. Can you say this about Jesus as He is revealed in the Scriptures? Dr. Mitchell exhorts us to consider it a point of wisdom to settle this question in one's own heart. In verse 17, Jesus reveals to Peter this revelation as being from His Father in heaven. This divine revelation of the Messiah is the rock upon which Jesus would build His church. The N.T. apostles and prophets then built on this revealed foundation of Christ Himself. Let's join Dr. Mitchell, Mat.16:13, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
As we turn the page to chapter 16 of Matthew, we begin a new section of study concerning our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as presented by Matthew.Dr. Mitchell gives us a short overview of what we have covered in previous chapters before turning to Matthew 16.This chapter opens with the Pharisees and Sadducees putting Jesus to the test again. They ask for a sign from heaven. Dr. Mitchell says they asked for a sign, instead Jesus gave them a warning.Dr.Mitchell states that Christians need to know the Word of God so as to understand the current time in God's program for His people.Jesus then warns the disciples about the leaven of these religious leaders. Dr. Mitchell gives what the teaching of these rulers was. He brings out how much leaven is evident to this day. Let's join Dr. Mitchell, Matthew 16:1
