A) There is a pretty big understanding in Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 28. As people, we should not be afraid of the ones that can kill our bodies and leave us there. That has very little to do with eternity. We should be aware that only God holds the ultimate power over our lives. And our continued existence.
B) Think about the reality that not even a sparrow falls to the ground without God knowing it. A sparrow is worth about half a penny. Yet, God knows every detail. Just like He knows every detail in our lives. Please tell me, besides those of us who are bald like myself), how many hairs do you have on your head right now? Give me the number, if you know.
C) This portion connects us to Luke 9:26. People that deny Jesus openly will be denied by Jesus. People that acknowledge Jesus openly will be acknowledged by Jesus. If we have any shame in being a Christian, we probably are not Christians. That goes double for the woke people who wouldn’t know the difference between Jesus and a brown paper bag.
