Matthew seen from the perspective of the gospel of the water and the Spirit (II) Castos https://english-93.castos.com The Matthew Biblical Exposition series you are now listening to consists of twenty-eight chapters and is divided into six volumes. This second volume covers Matthew chapters five through eight. The content is organized by topic and divided into three sections: Biblical Exposition, Sermon, and Questions and Answers. “Unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:20) Does a person become righteous enough to enter the kingdom of heaven by adding good deeds, keeping the Law, and ceaseless repentance and prayer? Beginning with the Beatitudes in Matthew chapter 5, this book sequentially examines the fulfillment of the Law, the Lord’s Prayer, the Kingdom and righteousness of God, and the narrow gate and the house built on the rock, clearly revealing the “all righteousness” that God gives to sinners. Then, through the faith of the leper and the centurion, it clearly testifies that the righteousness of God and the remission of sins are not earned through human merit but are given to those who believe the gospel of the water and the Spirit fulfilled by Jesus. If you have instead been condemned before commands you cannot keep, or have never been sure whether you are a righteous person who will enter the kingdom of heaven, discover through this book the perfect righteousness of salvation God Himself has accomplished. ● Scripture quotations used in this book are from the ‘New King James Version (NKJV)’, ‘American Standard Version (ASV)’. ● This audiobook is an original human creation based on the sermons of Rev. Paul C. Jong. To provide clear delivery and a comfortable listening experience, AI technology was employed only for the voice generation.

Wars, famines, and disasters do not cease. Our country in particular is unstable in its economy and unstable in its security. The economy should improve but does not, and security remains precarious. Some powers even incite war, holding their own people hostage to preserve their regime. At such a time, what must we do first? It is prayer. We must kneel before the Lord and pray.

In those days a leper had to live apart from other people, and he could not declare his own body clean at will. Even if his disease seemed to have been healed, he had to show his body to the priest and receive the verdict. This man did not hide his disease or say that he would cure himself. Bowing before Jesus, he confessed, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean” (Matthew 8:2).

If Matthew chapters 5–7 showed the authoritative words of Jesus, chapter 8 shows the authority of those words actually revealed over disease, nature, and the forces of demons. Through this it testifies that Jesus is not a mere teacher or miracle worker but the Son of God who came to save sinners and the Creator who rules all things.
