As Matthew’s Gospel draws to its thrilling close, we see Jesus move toward the very purpose of His coming.

Beaten, carrying His cross and crucified… a moment of suffering that seemed like the defeat of Jesus and the kingdom of God, actually was the fulfilment of God’s promise to put an end to sin, suffering and death forever.

Discover Jesus – the passionate One – in this final episode of Matthew’s Gospel.
