Matthew seen from the perspective of the gospel of the water and the Spirit (III) Castos https://english94.castos.com The Matthew Biblical Exposition series you are now listening to consists of twenty-eight chapters and is divided into six volumes. This third volume covers Matthew chapters nine through thirteen. The content is organized by topic and divided into three sections: Biblical Exposition, Questions and Answers, and Sermon. Why did Jesus speak the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven in parables? Why is it that, hearing the same word, some understand it and some do not? This book examines the parables of Matthew chapter 13 in connection with the word of chapters 9–12. It makes clear how the authority to remit sins and the compassion toward sinners, the disciples’ preaching of the gospel, the testimony of John the Baptist, and the rest the Lord gives are connected with the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven. The parables of the sower and the tares, the hidden treasure and the pearl of great price, and the dragnet show in what kind of heart the word bears fruit and how precious the gospel of the water and the Spirit is. If the parables of the kingdom of heaven seem vague, or if you want to know the difference between true faith and the religious teachings of the world, open this book. You will meet Jesus, who gives eternal remission of sins and rest and reveals the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven. ● 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.

The parable of the sower, the parable of the wheat and the tares, the parables of the mustard seed and the leaven, the parables of the treasure hidden in a field and the pearl of great price, and the parable of the dragnet follow one after another. When the disciples asked why He spoke in parables, Jesus answered that there are those to whom it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven and those to whom it has not been given. The mysteries of the kingdom of heaven are not understood by human wisdom; they are opened to the person who lowers his heart and receives the word.

The figure of a farmer sowing seed was very familiar to the people of that day. But through this ordinary scene Jesus revealed the deep mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.

But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared” (Matthew 13:24–26). Today, through this word, I want us to look together at the fact that the Lord has given the kingdom of heaven to you and me.

The last full day is already here. When this one day passes, tomorrow morning we will hold the Communion and then return home. I cannot tell you how fine the weather is. It seems we have already entered early autumn. The grass insects and the cicadas are singing, and the temperature differs between midday and evening, so it is truly pleasant. It is so good that our country has four seasons. I feel that God is working like this and governing the whole world, and I am so thankful.
