At the start of the Gospel, we come to know the relevance of Emmanuel as God’s presence in Jesus (1:23) and the involvement of God in birth accomplished through the angel (1:20; 2:13; 2:19). There is a constant citation of Jesus to the Father (6:9.14.18.26, and others), even as the one who disclosed to Peter that

in all three of the Synoptic Gospels . The first of these stories is the stilling of the storm found in Matthew 8:18, 23-27, Mark 4:35-41, and Luke 8:22-25. The second, and later focus of this paper, is the Gerasene demonic found in Matthew 8: 28-34, Mark 5: 1-20, and Luke 8: 26-39. The third, and fourth miracles are combined into one longer narrative that is found in Matthew 9:18-26, Mark 5: 21-43, and Luke 8:40-56 . These four miracle narratives provide examples for the four types of miracles

how fallen or worthless anyone thinks they are with their life, Jesus is able to identify Himself with them in their valley’s situation and bring them into the kingdom of God as royal priest of God and make them to reign as kings over the earth (Rev. 5:9-10). That was why throughout His ministry on earth, He identified Himself with people who were at the bottom of life, people who have had the worst life that could ever be imagined.

war. Pacifics like Walter Wink believe that nonresistance is the method of dealing with one’s adversary, and war is unjustifiable. They used the biblical references, more specifically the Matthew Section, to validate their claim. The scripture from the Matthews text that affirmed their opinion was Matthew 5:38-41, which Walter Wink summarizes by saying, “Jesus commands his followers not to resist evil, but to turn the other cheek, give the second garment, or walk the second mile” (129).

In Matthew 28:19-20 also known as The Great Commission it states “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Jesus gave this command to the apostles shortly before he ascended into Heaven.
