And behold, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, “Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!” Then the multitude warned them that they should be quiet; but they cried out all the more, saying, “Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!” So Jesus stood still and called them, and said, “What do you want Me to do for you?” They said to Him, “Lord, that our eyes may be opened.”So, Jesus had compassion and touched their eyes. And immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him.  (Matthew 20: 29-34)Support the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

And the third day He will rise again.”  (Matthew 20: 17-19)False and True AmbitionThen the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Him with her sons, kneeling down and asking something from Him. And He said to her, “What do you wish?” She said to Him, “Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on the left, in Your kingdom.” But Jesus answered and said, “You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” They said to Him, “We are able.” So He said to them, “You will indeed drink My cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared by My Father.” And when the ten heard it, they were greatly displeased with the two brothers.But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who are great exercise authority over them. Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave, just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”  (Matthew 20: 20-28)The Christian Revolution.The Servanthood of The CrossSupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

Did you not agree with me for a denarius? 14 Take what is yours and go your way. I wish to give to this last man the same as to you. 15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with my own things?

Send us Fan MailHAPPY SAINT PATRICKS DAY.This is a free taster Episode of the Forthcoming 2000 Years of Christian Thought Podcast series - coming soon.The Real Saint Patrick.Saint Patrick is an important figure in Christian history who continues to be celebrated by Christians around the world today. He was a fifth-century missionary and church leader who is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland. Saint Patrick's life and teachings offer valuable lessons that are still relevant to Christians today.One of the reasons Saint Patrick is still important today is his commitment to spreading the gospel message. He believed that everyone, regardless of their social status or background, deserved to hear about the love of God. This message is still relevant today, as Christians are still called to share the good news of Jesus with those around them.Patrick's life also offers a model of Christian faithfulness in the face of hardship. He endured many challenges and trials throughout his life, including being kidnapped and enslaved as a teenager. Despite these difficulties, Patrick remained steadfast in his faith and continued to spread the gospel message wherever he went. Christians today can draw inspiration from his example to remain faithful to God even in the midst of difficult circumstances.Finally, Saint Patrick's legacy is a reminder of the importance of cultural diversity within the Christian faith. He recognized the value of Irish culture and incorporated elements of it into his teachings.  Today, we are called to embrace and appreciate the diversity of cultures within the church and to recognize the value that each unique perspective brings to the body of Christ.Welcome to the life of the real Saint PatrickHelp me to continue to make and share great Biblical content everyday.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comTo access the orignal texts of Saint Patricks two written works see below.Confessionshttp://www.confessio.ie/etexts/confessio_english#19Letter to CoroticusLetter to the soldiers of Coroticus | St. Patrick’s ConfessioSupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

(Matthew 19: 1-9) Introduction.1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these sayings, that He departed from Galilee and came to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan. 2 And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them there. 3 The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?” 4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let not man separate.” 7 They said to Him, “Why then did Moses’ command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?” 8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. 9 And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for]sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”  (Matthew 19: 1-9)The Jewish Idea of Marriage.Here Jesus is dealing with what was in his day, as it is in our own is a vexed and burning question. Divorce was something about which there was no agreement among the Jews at that time and the Pharisees here were deliberately not only try and trap Jesus, but they were also trying to involve Jesus in the controversy. At this point in world history for 200 years now, no nation had ever had a higher view of marriage than the Jews. Marriage was a sacred, to remain unmarried after the age of twenty, except in order to concentrate upon the study of the Torah, was to break the commandment to "be fruitful and multiply, as they saw it."

He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded.29 “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’ 30 “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. 31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened. 32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I cancelled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ 34 In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. 35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”II.            The Huge Debt is Forgiven.III.           The Unforgiven Insignificant DebtIV.           Forgiveness Without Limit.Support the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.
