He who comes in the name
of the Lord is the blessed One!^[b]
Hosanna in the highest heaven!
HOSANNA to the Son of David!
Hosanna TO the Son of David!
Hosanna to THE Son of David!
Hosanna to the SON of David!

…and so on. This will cause you to look at the verse more intently, and may have you memorize it before your five minutes are done.

Passage Matthew Chapter Nineteen

It doesn’t matter which version you choose. It can be digital or paper. You can use one of those fancy coloring bibles and do a page or coloring along with the passage.

I will mostly do Holman Christian Standard Bible because of their copyright freedoms.

author note – no video this time because I am having too many migraines from the eye surgery, and I have to give up something. My apologies.

Matthew 19
- Mt 19:1-12 Divorce and Remarriage
  - I’m just going to post what God says – if you have other opinions, or go with other understandings, you have grace to follow Christ according to the knowledge that He provides for YOU!
  - Pharisees trying to trick him
    - ³Some Pharisees approached Him to test Him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife on any grounds?”
  - something about the genders and creation that makes the joining important
    - ⁴“Haven’t you read,” He replied, “that He who created^[a] them in the beginning made them male and female,”
    - ⁵and He also said:
      - “For this reason a man will leave
        his father and mother
        and be joined to his wife,
        and the two will become one flesh?^[c]
    - ⁶So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, man must not separate.”
    - I don’t understand how this goes with Jesus saying that in the new kingdom there is no giving or taking in marriage.
      - Matt 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage but are like angels in heaven.
    - I have not studied this except as to how it applied to me, and this verse kept Jim and I married through the tough times.
  - Hard hearts – what does this mean about the laws???
    - ⁸He told them, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of the hardness of your hearts. But it was not like that from the beginning.
      - I’m trying not to get too deep here…but Jesus is in Deep Water!
  - The disciples say
    - ¹⁰His disciples said to Him, “If the relationship of a man with his wife is like this, it’s better not to marry!”
  - Jesus says:
    - ¹¹But He told them, “Not everyone can accept this saying, but only those it has been given to. ¹²For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, there are eunuchs who were made by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves that way because of the kingdom of heaven. Let anyone accept this who can.”
    - For more see 1Corinthians 7:1-16
- Mt 19:13-15 Bring the Little Children
  - ¹⁴Then Jesus said, “Leave the children alone, and don’t try to keep them from coming to Me, because the kingdom of heaven is made up of people like this.”
    - Did the Disciples forget about who was the greatest in Heaven?
      - MMM18 Or Matthew 18
- Mt 19:16-22 What must I do to have eternal life?
  - ¹⁶Just then someone came up and asked Him, “Teacher, what good must I do to have eternal life?”
  - Keep the Commandments
  - ¹⁸“Which ones?” he asked Him.
  - Jesus summarizes the whole OT set of laws
    - Do not murder;
    - do not commit adultery;
    - do not steal;
    - do not bear false witness;
    - honor your father and your mother;
    - and love your neighbor as yourself.
      - Other than the Loving God part – these are the ones Jesus’s Father wrote on the Mountain! Ex 20:1-17
  - ²⁰“I have kept all these,”^[i] the young man told Him. “What do I still lack?”
  - KICKER FROM JESUS
    - ²¹“If you want to be perfect,”^[j] Jesus said to him, “go, sell your belongings and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”
  - ²²When the young man heard that command, he went away grieving, because he had many possessions.
    - Was his possessions really what Jesus was getting at?
- Mt 19:23-24
  - ²³Then Jesus said to His disciples, “I assure you: It will be hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven! ²⁴Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”
    - WHY????
- Mt 19:25
  - ²⁵When the disciples heard this, they were utterly astonished and asked, “Then who can be saved?”
- Mt 19:26
  - ²⁶But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
- Mt 19:27
  - ²⁷Then Peter responded to Him, “Look, we have left everything and followed You. So what will there be for us?”
- Mt 19:28-30 God’s got us taken care of
  - - Matt 6:21
      - For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
    - Matt 6:24
      - “No one can be a slave of two masters, since either he will hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot be slaves of God and of money.
    - Mt 6:21-34
      - ²⁵Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
      - ³³But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
      - ³⁴Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
    - Matt 7 7:7-12
      - ⁷“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
    - Philippians 4:19
      - And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
    - 1 Peter 5:7
      - ⁷Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
- Mt 19:30 ³⁰But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

This chapter, though, I will use the New Living Translation for clearing up some of the translations.

New Living Translation (NLT)

Matthew 18
- Mt 18:1-6 Who is the Greatest in Heaven?
  - a little child
    - ³Then he said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn from your sins and become like little children, you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven. ⁴So anyone who becomes as humble as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.
  - Don’t cause one to suffer – to fall into sin
    - ⁶But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea.
- Mt 18:7-9 the sorrows of temptation
  - ⁷“What sorrow awaits the world, because it tempts people to sin. Temptations are inevitable, but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting.
    - cut off hand, gouge out eye
  - God holds children dear
    - ¹⁰“Beware that you don’t look down on any of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels are always in the presence of my heavenly Father.^[c]
- Mt 18:11- 14 The 99 vs the 1 – promise for wayward children
  - Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost?
  - rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that didn’t wander away!
  - ¹⁴In the same way, it is not my heavenly Father’s will that even one of these little ones should perish.
- Mt 18:15-17 Conflict Negotiation for the church
  - one-to-one
    - ¹⁵“If another believer^[d] sins against you,^[e] go privately and point out the offense. If the other person listens and confesses it, you have won that person back.
  - bring one or two
    - ¹⁶But if you are unsuccessful, take one or two others with you and go back again, so that everything you say may be confirmed by two or three witnesses.
  - whole church
    - ¹⁷If the person still refuses to listen, take your case to the church.
  - If no change –
    - Then if he or she won’t accept the church’s decision, treat that person as a pagan or a corrupt tax collector.
    - make every attempt possible, but do not poison the body.
- Mt 18:18- 20 in light of church matters – PRAYER POWER
  - ¹⁸“I tell you the truth, whatever you forbid^[f] on earth will be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit^[g] on earth will be permitted in heaven.
  - ¹⁹“I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you. ²⁰For where two or three gather together as my followers,^[h] I am there among them.”
- Mt 18:21 – 22 How often to forgive
  - ²²“No, not seven times,” Jesus replied, “but seventy times seven!^[j]
- Mt 18: 23-35 Forgive to be forgiven Parable
  - ³⁵“That’s what my heavenly Father will do to you if you refuse to forgive your brothers and sisters^[m] from your heart.”

Matthew 17
- Mt 17:1-9 Transfiguration
  - Peter James and John chosen
  - Semi-Glorified Body
    - ²He was transformed^[a] in front of them, and His face shone like the sun. Even His clothes became as white as the light.
  - Moses and Elijah in Resurrected Bodies
    - ³Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.
  - Seemed real to dear Peter
    - ⁴Then Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it’s good for us to be here! If You want, I will make^[b] three tabernacles here: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
      - you don’t make tabernacles (shelters, tents) for ghosts
  - Then God spoke
    - ⁵While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud covered^[c] them, and a voice from the cloud said:
    - This is My beloved Son.
      I take delight in Him.
      Listen to Him!
  - The fear of the Lord
    - ⁶When the disciples heard it, they fell facedown and were terrified.
    - ⁷Then Jesus came up, touched them, and said, “Get up; don’t be afraid.”
- Mt 17:10-13 Elijah? John the Baptist?
  - ¹²“But I tell you: Elijah has already come, and they didn’t recognize him. On the contrary, they did whatever they pleased to him. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.”^[h]
- Mt 17:14-21 Healing the son with seizures – Faith
  - ¹⁵“Lord,” he said, “have mercy on my son, because he has seizures^[i] and suffers severely. He often falls into the fire and often into the water. ¹⁶I brought him to Your disciples, but they couldn’t heal him.”
    - the father moved up the ladder of authority.
  - ¹⁷Jesus replied, “You unbelieving and rebellious^[j] generation! How long will I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.”
    - apparently, the disciples should have been able
  - Why Not?
    - ¹⁹Then the disciples approached Jesus privately and said, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
    - ²⁰“Because of your little faith,” He^[n] told them. “For I assure you: If you have faith the size of^[o] a mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.
  - BUT – there is differences!!!
    - [²¹However, this kind does not come out except by prayer and fasting.]”^[p]
- Mt 17: 22-23 Second mention of his coming death
  - Jesus told them, “The Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men. ²³They will kill Him, and on the third day He will be raised up.” And they were deeply distressed.
- Mt 17: 24- 27 Paying Taxes
  - Peter asked by tax collectors
    - “Doesn’t your Teacher pay the double-drachma tax?”
  - Peter says
    - “Yes,”
      - but what was his plan?????
  - Jesus first!
    - “What do you think, Simon? Who do earthly kings collect tariffs or taxes from? From their sons or from strangers?”^[
    - “From strangers,”
    - “Then the sons are free,” Jesus told him. ²⁷“But, so we won’t offend them, go to the sea, cast in a fishhook, and take the first fish that you catch. When you open its mouth you’ll find a coin.^[v] Take it and give it to them for Me and you.”
      - basic principle that we are not the sons of this government, so we should pay taxes, but also allows that God will provide.

  - ⁴A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Jesus then left them and went away.
  - Itty Bitty Bible Study on Jonah
- Mt 16:5-12 Yeast discussions
  - ⁵When they went across the lake, the disciples forgot to take bread. ⁶“Be careful,” Jesus said to them. “Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
  - ⁹Do you still not understand? Don’t you remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered? ¹⁰Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?
  - ¹²Then they understood that he was not telling them to guard against the yeast used in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
- Mt 16:13-17 The Son of Man
  - ¹³When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”
  - ¹⁶Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”
  - ¹⁷Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven.
- Mt 16:18-20 Peter and keys to kingdom
  - ¹⁸And I tell you that you are Peter,^[b] and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades^[c] will not overcome it.

  - ⁹I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be^[d] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be^[e] loosed in heaven.”
- Mt 16:21-23 – Jesus reveals Jerusalem events
  - Jesus is going to be killed
  - Peter says no, never
  - ²³Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”
  - Poor Peter!
- Mt 16:24-28
  - ²⁴Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. ²⁵For whoever wants to save their life^[f] will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. ²⁶What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? ²⁷For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what they have done.

- Mt 13:10-17 Parables and Secrets
  - ¹⁶“But your eyes are blessed because they do see, and your ears because they do hear!
- Mt 13:24-30 & 36-43 Wheat and Weeds

  - 25 & 39 enemy – Devil
  - Harvest –
    - ²⁹“‘No,’ he said. ‘When you gather up the weeds, you might also uproot the wheat with them. ³⁰Let both grow together until the harvest. At harvest time I’ll tell the reapers: Gather the weeds first and tie them in bundles to burn them, but store the wheat in my barn.’”
  - End of the Age –
    - The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels. ⁴⁰Therefore, just as the weeds are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. ⁴¹The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather from His kingdom everything that causes sin^[i] and those guilty of lawlessness.^[j] ⁴²They will throw them into the blazing furnace where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. ⁴³Then the righteous will shine like the sun in their Father’s kingdom. Anyone who has ears^[k] should listen!

- Mt 13:33– Parable of the Yeast

It collected every kind of fish, ⁴⁸and when it was full, they dragged it ashore, sat down, and gathered the good fish into containers, but threw out the worthless ones. ⁴⁹So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out, separate the evil people from the righteous, ⁵⁰and throw them into the blazing furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
- Mt 13:51 Do you understand?
  - ⁵²“Therefore,” He said to them, “every student of Scripture^[n] instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who brings out of his storeroom what is new and what is old.”
- Mt 13:54- 58 Rejection in Nazareth
  - But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his household.” ⁵⁸And He did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.

Matthew Chapter Seven

It doesn’t matter which version you choose. It can be digital or paper. You can use one of those fancy coloring bibles and do a page or coloring along with the passage.

I will mostly do Holman Christian Standard Bible because of their copyright freedoms.

Matthew 7
- Mt 7:1 don’t judge
  - “Do not judge, so that you won’t be judged. ²For with the judgment you use,^[a] you will be judged, and with the measure you use,^[b] it will be measured to you.
    - John 7:24
      - ²⁴Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
  - We have to make judgements. Proverbs is full of judgements. This is talking about judging without checking out your own heart first. Harsh judging just to put someone down. Judging to lift yourself up. Judging that doesn’t need to be done.
    - Luke 6:37, Luke 6:41, Romans 2:1, Romans 14:10, Romans 14:13,
    - Determine the difference between God’s hand and the enemy’s hand –
      - Ephesians 6:12
        
        ¹²For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
    - Matthew 10:16 Christ did give a warning to watch for those without good intentions.
      - “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues.
  - When in doubt, don’t. Because we can trust God to take care of us.
    - Romans 12:18- 20 Our response to perceived evil:
      - ¹⁷Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. ¹⁸If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. ¹⁹Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”^[d] says the Lord. ²⁰On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
        In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”^[e]
- Mt 7:2-6 Hypocrites and Pigs
- Mt 7:7-12 Ask, Seek, Knock, give as you would be given
  - ⁹What man among you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? ¹⁰Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? ¹¹If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
  - ¹²Therefore, whatever you want others to do for you, do also the same for them—this is the Law and the Prophets.^[h]
- Mt 7:13-14 Where to Enter
  - ¹³“Enter through the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the road is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who go through it. ¹⁴How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it.
- Mt 7:15-20
  - ²⁰So you’ll recognize them by their fruit.
- Mt 7:21-23 To be known
  - ²¹“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord!’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father in heaven.
  - ²³Then I will announce to them, ‘I never knew you! Depart from Me, you lawbreakers!’^[i]^[j]
- Mt 7:24-27 Build your house on THE Rock
  - ²⁵The rain fell, the rivers rose, and the winds blew and pounded that house. Yet it didn’t collapse, because its foundation was on the rock.
- Mt 7:28-29
- ²⁸When Jesus had finished this sermon,^[k] the crowds were astonished at His teaching, ²⁹because He was teaching them like one who had authority, and not like their scribes.
