Mt 10:26-11:6

  • v26,28 - do not be afraid of:
    • them (concealed->disclosed, hidden->made known);
    • those who kill the body but not the soul (v28).
  • v30 - God knows us (even the very hairs of your head are all numbered).
  • v34 - Jesus did not come to bring peace, but a sword. Why? Is this the weapon for the 'good fight' Paul was talking about?
  • v35 - daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
  • v37~38 - not worthy of Jesus:
    • those who love their father or mother more than me
    • those who love their son or daughter more than me,
    • those who do not take their cross and follow me.
  • v39 - find life->loose it, lose life for Jesus->find it.
  • v40 - receives disciples->receives Jesus.
  • 11:3 - John's uncertainty.
