Pastor Joey continued the Knowing Jesus series today
Although from laryngitis his voice must rest, he did say
Pastor referred to Matthew chapters two through five
About two distinct contrasting kingdoms, he did derive
Jesus and Herod represented the clash of kingdoms
One legitimate, one illegitimate, thus two outcomes
One validated via a Micah prophecy, one invalid
One the Son, the other an imposter turned pallid
The Spirit of Two Kingdoms seen in Matthew four
Jesus was led by the Spirit to be tempted and more
He resisted, preferring the Spirit to flesh as a guide
Submission over power and humility over pride
The Values of God’s Kingdom, as per Matthew five
The Beatitudes say to new values we should strive
Humble, meek, and merciful may make some frown
Because these everlasting values seem upside down
