À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
In Matthew 8:1-4, Jesus comes down from the Mount where he gave the bulk of his ethical teaching. He's now become exceedingly popular and large crowds follow him. What do we see him do? Matthew's first recorded act is Jesus healing a man with leprosy. This man is an unclean outcast and being healed from leprosy involved a complicated and long process of ceremonial cleansing. Jesus reveals his heart of love by healing the man, but also gives him a specific command to obey the Law and go present himself to the priest to undergo the process of cleansing from Leviticus 14, in order to be a testimony to the religious leaders. This episode teaches us much about the heart and will of God.

So rather than point out other's mi…
In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus provides the logical consequence of making God our Master, rather than money: no need to worry. If God is truly our provider and sustainer, and he loves and values us, then we will be taken care of. This requires faith, though! We won't get everything we want, but if we pr…
In the last of Jesus's "you have heard it said...but I tell you" teachings from Matthew 5:43-48, we are told to love our enemies. It's easy to love those who love us, but to be like our Father in Heaven, we must love those who oppose us and even persecute us. The world tells us that good guys and b…
Why are you a Christian? What's the ultimate center of your faith? Is it God or something else? In Matthew 6:1-18, Jesus takes us through three godly practices that should be a part of our Christian walk: giving to the poor, prayer and fasting. But why and how we do these things is just as importan…
