New Testament (1673)
  1. Jesus looks into our hearts. He sees our hang-ups. He sees the temptations that keep us from following him. He sees our shortcomings, our sin, and our self-inflation. He does not turn His eyes away from us.
  2. For followers of Jesus, entrance is granted into the Paradise by faith in a risen Lord, even though we continue to struggle with the First Commandment, because Jesus is greater than Moses.
  3. Buried treasure and fishing for men.
  4. However awful the attack of sin, death, the devil, or the world, we need not fear. Everything is subjected to Christ.
  5. The big thing is God’s grand design, His good creation He has come to restore and redeem, the Kingdom of Heaven Jesus proclaimed in His life and embodied in His death and resurrection.
  6. Parables and secrets.
  7. Jesus is revealed not as some aloof, indifferent hero, but as the One who sympathizes with the sick, the hound of Heaven who chases after the wandering, the One who would salve with the oil of righteousness, and the Savior who would cover with His robe of righteousness.
  8. The Kingdom and reign of God in Jesus is marked by lowliness, by humility, by the setting aside of one’s rights, by laying down one’s life, by dying, and specifically, by Jesus dying.
