The Kingdom of Heaven: Matthew 4:1-11 - The Victory of the King

Jesus' victory over temptation by Satan is about more than just how we can face temptation. It is about how the Son of God defeated sin for us and accomplished righteousness on our behalf. You have the opportunity to stand blameless before God because Christ won victory over sin.

The Kingdom of Heaven: Matthew 3:13-17 - The Submission of the King

The Kingdom of Heaven: Matthew 3:1-12 - God's People in Christ

John the Baptist's ministry prepared the way for Christ by preaching the need for repentance. However, not everyone thought they needed repentance, and many thought that they are God's people simply by blood or by merit. John the Baptist shows us that God calls for repentance. All who repent will be saved. But those who do not repent, even descendants of Abraham, will be removed from the covenant people of God.
