While I was teaching chapter 7 of the Confession of Faith regarding God’s covenant in our 1689 class, these three miracles in Matthew became marvelously clearer and more glorious in my mind. The Confession says the distance between man and God is infinite; God does not owe anything to us, but we owe everything to […]

While the sign above the head of Jesus announced in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin why He was dying on the cross as the “King of the Jews,” those languages were only understood by those in Palestine. But as soon as His Son died, God the Father spoke in a universal language—a language that deeply resonates

We stand at the cross and witness the death of Christ. Although Matthew writes his Gospel in a simple, straightforward narrative, there are unfathomable depths hidden here. Every week, I struggle to bring these infinitely deep truths into a small sermon with limited language; the subject before us is truly that vast. Indeed, we haven’t

The three hours of darkness are gone. The rocky mountain of Golgotha, for a moment, stood stunned. That darkness vanished with the loud cry of “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” He drank the hell intended for all the elect. Shortly after, the sun shone brightly. Like those who cry out every second in the unquenchable fire,

Mat 27: 45-46 45 Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land. 46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” Any day when things go wrong and we suffer, we call it

 Matthew 27:35-44  35 Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, [j]that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet:  “They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots.”   36 Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there. 37 And they put up over His head the accusation written against Him:  THIS

Matthew 27:31-34  31 And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him away to be crucified.  32 Now as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross. 33 And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is

Matthew 27:27-31  27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the [f]Praetorium and gathered the whole garrison around Him. 28 And they stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him. 29 When they had [h]twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, “Hail,

Matthew 27:15-26  15 Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished. 16 And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called [b]Barabbas. 17 Therefore, when they had gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” 18 For he

We are looking at the trials of our Lord. Every trial is filled with irony. The One whom men judge is the Judge of all men. The One whom men condemn is the One who will eternally condemn them. The perfectly righteous, sinless, and innocent One is condemned as if He were the worst criminal.
