The Future King is Here: the Theology of Matthew: Kingdom Theology Series Derek Morphew

This is a study of the Gospel of Matthew viewed through the lens of kingdom theology. It examines how Matthew has reflected the mission and message of Jesus on the coming of the Messianic era, or the kingdom of heaven. It first discovers the careful literary structure of Matthew and then explores how Jesus is portrayed, how he announced, demonstrated and taught on the kingdom and then acted as God's Suffering Servant and Son of Man through his death and resurrection. It also covers Matthew's approach to community and discipleship.
