Introduction to the Gospels & Matthew

DAY 9 OF 18

Matthew #6: Relational Righteousness

This lesson uses the Sermon on the Mount to reveal Jesus’ fuller interpretation of the Law. God gives us Law because He loves us and doesn’t want us to suffer the results of wrong-doing. God’s Law comes out of God’s goodness toward man not as an end in itself. Thus, Jesus teaches us how to find happiness through righteousness in seven relationships. This lesson covers four of them. 1. Fellow Christians, 2. Adversaries, 3. The Opposite sex, 4. Spouses.

About this Plan

Introduction to the Gospels & Matthew

The first four books of the New Testament are called “gospels,” which means “good news.” They are fundamental to the revelation of God’s eternal plan to redeem and save lost humanity. They are often called biographies for they each tell the story of Jesus, his birth, ministry, death, and resurrection. The good news of the Gospels is that Jesus has come, that he is both Savior and King, and people can know this is true because God has raised him from the dead. This section specifically focuses on the longest of the four Gospels, the Gospel of Matthew.
