****** - Book review: The Gospel of Matthew - New Testament - 40th Book of the Bible Concerning Jesus Christ. This three minute review encapsulates the reader's impressions of the diversity of the first book in the New Testament and the fortieth book in the entire Bible. The Book of Matthew is the first of four gospel accounts of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Son of God who came to earth over 2,000 years ago to be the Redeemer and Savior of "the world," by dying on the cross for the sins of the world. There are 28 chapters in this book with the genealogy of Jesus according to the line of David, the beloved King of Israel and ends with the commissioning of the disciples of the "risen" Savior with the promise that He, Jesus Christ, would be with them to "the end of the age." The "book" that has the New Testament as well as the Books of Psalms and Proverbs used for this book review of the Gospel of Matthew is a product of the Gideon International Ministry. See: ****** The version of the Scriptures preferred in this book review is the Authorized King James Version of 1611, or KJV. The KJV is recognized worldwide for its accuracy and reliable sources. The King James Bible is public domain. Transcript: Hey, this is Gilbert and I'm doing my weekly book review. This book review is gonna come out of the New Testament. And I believe the words of the New Testament to be the Word of God. And as such, I believe that every word in here is divinely inspired by God Himself. Though man did write it, I believe that men were moved by the Holy Ghost as the Scriptures say. And so, thus, this is a divinely-inspired book. It's full of prophecies. It's full of prophesies that were fulfilled and yet to be fulfilled. That's one of the earmarks of knowing that this is a genuine book and not somebody's concoction in a basement somewhere. The Book of Matthew is the first book of the Bi--of the New Testament, has to do with the good news of Jesus Christ coming to earth. It's starts with the genealogy, Talking about how he's started in the generation of David and as such, he is in the line of the kingship. That he becomes the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. What we also have in this book are the times when Jesus is speaking to the multitudes. He's breaking the bread to 5,000 people when all he had was five loaves and two fishes. And yet, by God's grace and mercy, he's able to feed 5,000 men, not including the women and children, which could easily have been two or three times that number. And again another time with just seven loaves of fish and uh, bread and fish, he's able to feed four thousand people, not including women and children. Miracles of all kinds: Children being raised from the dead; uh servants being raised up that were sick. Even, one of the apostles, Simon Peter, his mother-in-law was sick with a fever. She gets healed because Jesus intervened. This is the good news that Jesus Christ is the Lord and he is the Lord and Christ. The one, he came to his "own but his own received him not," as the Apostle John said. But in the Book of Matthew, we see the King coming in his kingdom. And in this book of 28 chapters, we hear, we read all the way to the point where Jesus died on the cross for our sins. He rose again the third day and he then sent out his disciples and said, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, discipling them, teaching them all the things; and know that I am with you until the end of the age." And that's the promises we have in this word. This is a great book. I highly recommend it! If you don't have a Gideon's New Testament, find out where there's a fair or find out where there's a Gideon and get one! It's free! And this will change your life and make you a better person! I enjoy it! I enjoy it every day! And I highly recommend it. Have a great day! This video is in a series prompted by Holly G Gillen.
