MATTHEW | THE KING THAT WENT TO THE CROSS (AUDIO ONLY)
Matthew 10:34-42 | The Divisive Gospel: Finding Life in Losing Everything for Christ
This sermon explores Jesus' radical call to discipleship in Matthew 10:34-42, where He declares that He came not to bring peace, but a sword. This difficult passage reveals that the gospel is inherently divisive because it demands supreme allegiance to Christ—even above our closest family relationships. Jesus isn't diminishing the importance of family; rather, He's using our strongest earthly bonds to illustrate that He must be our greatest treasure. The call to "take up your cross" means dying to self and all lesser loves, replacing our natural desires with wholehearted devotion to Jesus. While this path involves sacrifice and potential persecution, it leads to discovering that when Jesus is all we have, He truly is all we need.
