Gospel of Matthew - Matthew 10:33-42 - Jesus Speaks of Oppositions, Discipleship and Rewards - Prog 37
Description
Our study in Matthew continues in chapter 10 verses 32-42. In these 10 verses we hear our Lord Jesus continuing to give His twelve disciples instructions.
These verses have to do with everyone who acknowledges Christ before people, but doing so brings opposition. Jesus prepares them that this opposition would even come from one's own relatives. Therefore, one's trust and loyalty to Christ would be tested.
As Dr. Mitchell says it, Christ must be first in one's affection and devotion. The Apostle Paul writes the same thing in Colossians 1:18 , "And He Christ, is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He may have the preeminence."
That is, Christ is to have first place in one's heart.
