Equipped 2026: "From the Beginning God" by Dan Winkler - Part 3
from Equipped Workshop hosted by Lehman Avenue church of Christ · host equippedworkshop
April 26, 2026 - Equipped 2026 - Day 4 - 8:30 AM Session Dan Winkler continues a series centered on the phrase “from the beginning,” which occurs 23 times in the New Testament. This session examines Matthew 19, where the phrase appears twice in the context of marriage, divorce, and remarriage (MDR). The speaker critiques common misreadings of the chapter, stressing that its broader theme is “kingdom living,” and that isolating verse 9 neglects crucial context. The lecture unpacks Matthew 19:1-12: the Pharisees’ test question on divorce, Jesus’ answer anchoring marriage in God’s original intent at creation, and the dialogue on the certificate of divorce and eunuchs for the kingdom’s sake. A thorough analysis of Matthew 19:9 defines “whoever,” “divorce,” and “adultery,” arguing that God’s marriage law applies to all people, not only those in covenant with Him. The session ends with practical lessons for strengthening marriage: using Scripture as the guide, following God’s pattern of leaving and cleaving, cultivating togetherness, tender-heartedness, and prioritizing the kingdom of God. Duration 47:05
