Sinopse

We are surrounded by counterfeits. There is an element of truth in a counterfeit, but it is not authentic. Matthew labors hard in his writings so that anyone who reads his account, it will prove undeniably that Jesus is the promised Messiah. 3 points to focus on are faith, forgiveness and fellowship. 5 points to focus on from Jesus are:  That you may know. The Son of man is the Lord of the Sabbath. He has authority and power on earth to forgive sin. No ceremony, no show, Jesus only says rise and walk. Jesus heals in front of everyone publicly. Jesus authenticates his authority by not only forgiving sin but also healing. Disease and sin were inseparable to the Scribes of the day. That is why the Scribes said within themselves that this was blasphemy, but Jesus read their thoughts. Religion loves to create obstacles to the truth. Jesus is the visible image of the invisible God.
