Jesus is the Messiah who came to redeem the world by suffering and dying to atone for our sins
Fearing that everyone would believe in Jesus, the Pharisees demanded a heavenly sign that would discredit him if he failed to perform it
The Ten Commandments show us how sinful we are and drive us to Christ as our Savior who atones for our sins
Christ meets people’s needs, especially when they put their faith in him
One who could neither hear nor speak is cured by Jesus and now cannot stop speaking about what Jesus did for him
We are to reflect the light of Christ to the world and be the salt that seasons it by our words and life
Jesus’ zeal for souls caused him to cancel his day of rest in the desert and instead teach the multitudes many things
