Start with the Story of Jesus

Read the Story of Jesus

Matthew is a Bible book that tells the story of Jesus. It shows what Jesus said, what He did, how He loved, and why people chose to follow Him.

Summary

JesusWantsYou.org shares that Jesus is the Son of God and that following Him means repentance, baptism, receiving the Holy Spirit, turning from sin and darkness, obeying what Jesus taught, loving as He loved, laying down our lives, and living dedicated to becoming like Him.

The Bible has two helpful places to start. The story of Jesus shows what Jesus said, how He loved, and what He told people to do. The story of His first followers shows how people responded: they turned away from sin, were baptized, received the Holy Spirit, and began learning to live like Jesus.

What Is Matthew?

Matthew is not a church code word. It is the name of one of the Bible books that tells the story of Jesus.

It shows Jesus teaching, helping people, warning people, forgiving, healing, dying, rising from the dead, and calling people to follow Him.

What to Look For

As you read the story, notice how Jesus loves people, tells the truth, forgives, heals, warns against fake religion, and calls people to turn their lives toward God.

Do not read only to collect information. Read to meet Jesus, hear Him, and learn what following Him could look like in real life.

What Jesus Told His Followers

Near the end of Matthew, Jesus told His followers to help others become disciples, baptize them, and teach them to obey what He commanded.

That is why this site also points to the story of His first followers: Jesus gave the command, and Acts shows people actually responding.
