Matthew
Jesus Baptized & Tempted: Kingdom of the Heavens
Jesus is immersed by John into priestly service at age 30, fulfilling righteousness as the Father anoints Him with the Spirit and declares His pleasure. Driven by the Spirit into the wilderness, He faces three temptations from Satan—independence, testing the Father, and the kingdoms of the world—responding each time with Scripture. After John’s imprisonment, Jesus moves to Capernaum and proclaims the Kingdom of the Heavens, distinct from the Kingdom of God. Learn the regal reign from the heavens, the role of watchers, and the dual messages of Christ’s ministry.
Join us in person at 811 W. Main Street in Monroe, WA 98272.
If you are unable to join in person, we will have a live broadcast of our main service at 11:00 AM.
And let us consider one another in stirring up love and proper works, not forsaking the gathering of ourselves, just as is the habit of some, but encouraging, and so much more as we see the day approaching (Hebrews chapter 10:24–25).
In a world that often pulls us toward isolation, coming together face-to-face provides encouragement, clarity, and spiritual strength. At Word of Grace Studies, we gather because we value the opportunity to build up one another in truth, to stir up love and proper works, and to grow together in the faith. Whether you can come and fellowship with us or at a local assembly in your area, do not forsake the assembling of the saints, your presence matters—for your benefit and for the encouragement of others.
You’re always welcome to join us and experience the encouragement and connection that come from gathering together.
