“Proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom” by Greg Chandler

It is essential that we never lose sight of Jesus’ identity and the power He holds. The Apostle Matthew certainly reinforces this idea in his Gospel account by devoting a great deal of attention to revealing Jesus as the Messiah with the power to heal. In one block of his Gospel account (4:23–9:35), he records the entirety of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount along with numerous healings to help readers understand the Savior they serve. This sermon will present an overview of this section of the book of Matthew. The purpose of this study is to help develop a greater appreciation for the King and what is expected of His kingdom citizens.A sermon given by Greg Chandler on February 15, 2026.
