Matthew: The King and His Kingdom
Oct 27, 2024 | Matt McAlvey
Little Ones
This sermon explores Jesus' teaching on humility and greatness in the kingdom of heaven. When the disciples ask who is the greatest in God's kingdom, Jesus responds by placing a child before them, symbolizing humility, vulnerability, and dependence. True greatness, Jesus explains, is found not in status or power but in adopting a childlike posture of faith and reliance on God. The sermon challenges believers to embrace humility, resist temptations that may lead others astray, and recognize the value God places on the "little ones" in His kingdom. This humility, coupled with a radical commitment to holiness, forms the essence of life in God’s kingdom.
