马太福音 10:39

Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 10:39

Matthew 10:39 The Partial and the Perfect Self. There is a self-denial which is merely an elaborate and subtle form of self-seeking. The self-sacrifice required of Christians is a reasonable service; when we directly aim at doing good to others we indirectly achieve greater good for ourselves than any selfish conduct could accomplish; or, as our text puts it, he who loseth his life for Christ's sake shall find it. I. We have seen that a man is distinguished from an animal by the fact that he... read more

DISCOURSE: 1346THE RULE OF CHRIST’S PROCEDURE IN THE LAST DAYMatthew 10:32-39. Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will 1 also deny before my Father which is in heaven. Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Matthew 10:1-42

Shall we turn now in our bibles to the tenth chapter of the gospel of Matthew?In the beginning of the tenth chapter we find Christ sending His disciples out, telling them to go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. But in the fact that He is sending them to go, in the first part of chapter ten, makes the last verse of chapter nine quite significant. For in the last verse of chapter nine, Jesus said to His disciples: "Pray ye therefore the Lord of harvest, that he will send forth labourers... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 10:1-42

Matthew 10:1 . He called to him his twelve disciples. Jesus chose twelve that they might sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Luke 22:30. And that they might be the twelve foundations and gates of his church. Revelation 21:12-14. But this preference to the twelve did not hinder the extraordinary powers of the Spirit from being conferred on other apostolic men. And who would have thought, when they left their nets, that they should fill eternal thrones? Believer, take... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Matthew 10:39

Matthew 10:39He that findeth his life.The love of lifeI. The nature and end of this love of life. This attachment not engendered since the fall-a degraded exhibition of some early beauty. Adam loved life; but the life he loved was a fragment of immortality. He loved it as an unbroken walk with the Eternal; we commonly cling to life as a removal from His presence. Adam loved an immortality begun; we an immortality put off. But a Divine purification of our nature and the old lineaments shall... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 10:39

39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. Ver. 39. He that findeth his llfe shall lose it ] This is a strange expression, a riddle to the world, a seeming contradiction, a such as natural reason can never reconcile. But if the paradoxes of the Stoics might be proven, much more may those of the gospel. He that findeth his life, that is, redeemeth it with the forfeiture of his faith, with the shipwreck of his conscience, makes a loser’s... read more

He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.He that findeth his life shall lose it — He that saves his life by denying me, shall lose it eternally; and he that loseth his life by confessing me, shall save it eternally.

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:5-42

§ 57. CHARGE TO THE APOSTLES, Matthew 10:5-42 . The unity of this discourse demonstrates the oneness of its delivery, a point disputed by Olshausen and others. It consists properly of three parts. The first (Matthew 10:5-15) directs their demeanour during this present trial mission. The second (Matthew 10:16-23) predicts their trials and persecutions through their whole apostolate. The third (Matthew 10:24-42) states the duty of suffering, the struggle to ensue, and the results, namely,... read more

III. THE DUTY, THE STRUGGLE, AND THE ISSUE, Matthew 10:24-42. The duty: The reasonableness, the safety, and the reward of confessing Christ, Matthew 10:24-33. The struggle: A division between the nearest connections, a stern necessity of preferring truth to human ties, Matthew 10:34-39. The issue: All that receive Christ in his apostles, and who benefit and further their mission in faith, shall join them in the reward, Matthew 10:40-42. This, the closing part of the discourse, stands in... read more
