Segment 18: Radical Discipleship
Presenter: Leander E. Keck
According to Matthew, Jesus is the fulfillment of the Old Testament
hope. In Matthew the central theme of Jesus’ teaching is
“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Jesus and
Matthew use repentance to mean turning around, turning life
Godward. John the Baptist called people to repent in order to be
ready for the Kingdom. Jesus called people to repent in response
to the Kingdom. Jesus used parables to tell a story that could open
up some aspect of God’s kingdom.
