    Matthew: From Lineage to the King’s Commission

    Best quote from Matthew: From Lineage to the King’s Commission

    “

    The King didn't come for a 'perfect' race or a specific type of 'clean' sinner; he’s weaving the outcasts into the very DNA of the Messiah. It’s a narrative of inclusion before the story even starts.
