Lesson 11 - The King's Teaching

Matthew 18:1—19:30. Jesus continues to explain the upside-down nature of His Kingdom in this fourth section of His teaching. It is the Kingdom in which humility defines greatness, care for others overrides personal preference, and reconciliation is sought. God’s design is the framework. Forgiveness is extended without limit, and great reward is promised to those who persevere in confident trust. It is the Kingdom open to all who know their need of mercy and who return to the Shepherd who was pursuing them all along.
