Introduction to the Gospels & MatthewPrøve

### Matthew #15: Christ's Final Crisis This lesson concludes the book of Matthew by considering the hostility of the religious leaders towards Jesus. The Pharisees and the Sadducees continually seek to trap Jesus, but He thwarts them and rebukes them for their hypocrisy and false teaching. Jesus delivers the Olivet Discourse where he predicts the doom of Jerusalem, and His own second coming, and then tells three parables about His return: the Ten Virgins, the Talents, and the Sheep & the Goats. The lesson concludes with the death and resurrection of Jesus and the Great Commission.
