Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules.

More parables about the Kingdom of heaven. Dr. McGee challenges us that unbelief limits God’s ability to work in our lives, our churches, and communities, and encourages us that eternal life is a gift from God, not something to be bought.

When we hear a good story, our defenses drop, and the critical lesson can be more easily received. As we study Matthew 13, listen to Jesus teach important spiritual lessons in the form of parables. Listen closely, since Dr. McGee said this chapter is often misunderstood and misinterpreted but is key to understanding Jesus’ message.

If you’ve ever tried to plant a crop or grow a garden, you understand the value of soil. In this study of Matthew 13, Jesus compares the human heart to four different types of soil. Our teacher, Dr. J. Vernon McGee, says this is “one of the most important chapters of the Bible” and challenges us to have “ears to hear.”

Have you ever heard of “the unpardonable sin”? Do you know what it is? Are you concerned that you’ve committed it? Find out what sin is so great that God will not forgive it in our study of Matthew 12.

Only once in Scripture does Jesus describe Himself and what it’s like to know Him—and it is here in Matthew 11. He begins, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Explore with Dr. J. Vernon McGee what it’s like to rest in Jesus.

If you are often puzzled by the events and circumstances in our world, take heart. You’re not alone. When Jesus sent His disciples into the world, He prepared them for the worst. Even John the Baptist was confused.  Take Jesus’ instruction to heart in our study of Matthew 10-11.

“How we pray should affect how we live our lives”—that’s just one lesson we learn in our study of Matthew 9-10 as we continue to deep dive into Jesus’ teaching and evidence of power over all things natural and supernatural.

Our study in Matthew 8 explores the gamut of Jesus’ power—over nature (when He stills the Sea of Galilee) and over the demonic realm (when He commands demons out of people). But perhaps the greatest power that reaches us today is when Jesus heals broken people and tells them their sins are forgiven. He is still forgiving people today.

As we’ve seen throughout the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus is King.  And because He’s the King—He has a program, the Law of the kingdom that He has the power to fulfill. In our study of Matthew 8, He demonstrates that power in supernaturally healing people’s bodies and souls.

Jesus is the Savior of the world, but did you know He is also a King? The Gospel of Matthew presents Christ as King: He was born a King, He lived a King, He died a King, and He’s coming as King. In this study of the Sermon on the Mount, we learn the laws of God’s kingdom.

About Dr. J. Vernon McGee

John Vernon McGee was born in Hillsboro, Texas, in 1904. Dr. McGee remarked, "When I was born and the doctor gave me the customary whack, my mother said that I let out a yell that could be heard on all four borders of Texas!" His Creator well knew that he would need a powerful voice to deliver a powerful message.

After completing his education (including a Th.M. and Th.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary), he and his wife came west, settling in Pasadena, California. Dr. McGee's greatest pastorate was at the historic Church of the Open Door in downtown Los Angeles, where he served from 1949 to 1970.

He began teaching Thru the Bible in 1967. After retiring from the pastorate, he set up radio headquarters in Pasadena, and the radio ministry expanded rapidly. Listeners never seem to tire of Dr. J. Vernon McGee's unique brand of rubber-meets-the-road teaching, or his passion for teaching the whole Word of God.

On the morning of December 1, 1988, Dr. McGee fell asleep in his chair and quietly passed into the presence of his Savior.
