Introduction
John’s gospel seems to be setting up the stage with the premise Jesus is God.
The other gospels provide the details of what it looks like for Jesus to be God.
Tonight’s study will focus on Jesus’s ministry in Capernaum.
Continuation from Part 3
Matthew 4:13-16
Jesus is preaching in Capernaum between Zebulun and Naphtali, and there’s implications that He had an indirect ministry to the Gentiles (see Isaiah 8:11-9:2).
It’s important to stop our reference of the Old Testament where the gospel writers stop.
They stop intentionally and always avoid setting a false sense of modern hope for Israel’s natural redemption as the Old Testament prophets originally spoke.
Mark 1:16-20; Matthew 4:18-22; Luke 5:1-11
These passages speak of Jesus’s calling of the apostles Peter and Andrew.
This is a sign of Jesus’s determination to reach the Gentiles mentioned in
Luke 5:1-11 demonstrates the power of obedience in fishing for men or anything else.
Mark 1:21-28; Luke 4:31-37
Jesus’s teaching power in Capernaum.
Mark 1:29-34; Matthew 8:14-17; Luke 4:38-41
Healing of Peter’s mother-in-law.
Mark 1:35-39; Matthew 4:23-25; Luke 4:42-44
It is extremely impressive to see how many were looking for Jesus.
However, what’s more interesting is the fact that Jesus appears to be hiding from them.
Two reasons come to mind: 1) They did not want what Jesus wanted to give.
2) There were others who needed to experience what they had already received.
The lesson is we must seek out those who want the truth and we must give in a way that reaches as far as possible.
Mark 1:40-45; Matthew 8:2-4; Luke 4:42-44
Leper is healed and told to not share the news.
Mark 2:1-12; Matthew 9:1-8; Luke 5:17-26
Paralytic healed and sins forgiven, which others deem blasphemous.
Mark 2:13-17; Matthew 9:9-13; Luke 5:27-32
The call of Matthew, the tax collector.
“A Savior who loves sinners.”
