Messiah Without Borders (Matthew 15:21–39)
from From the Pulpit · host Oakridge Bible Chapel
The humanitarian organization, Doctors Without Borders, is on a mission to mobilize doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to provide medical aid to people in parts of the world where it is most dramatically lacking. If there’s a need, this group attempts to cross all borders to meet it. God, similarly and more perfectly, is a God without borders, constantly condescending to help, provide, sustain, and save a creation in desperate need. It is important for the people of God to be reminded that they serve a God who seeks to provide aid and that, his Son — he whom he sent into this world because of his love for this world—is likewise a Messiah without borders. He goes where there is great need. As we conclude Matthew 15, we are going to see Jesus, Israel’s anticipated Messiah and King, modelling a border-traversing mentality he wants all his followers to mimic, including you and I. Key Passage: Matthew 15:21–39 Series: Matthew: Of King and Kingdom Speaker: Josiah Boyd
