Teach Them To Obey - All That I Have Commanded You
by Duncan Matheson
Part 1 of the Teach Them To Obey series
A unique and comprehensive analysis of all the commands of Jesus, grouped and summarised into a simple-to-remember form of three high-level and nine lower-level themes.
This reference source for pastors and teachers presents a comprehensive biblical foundation to address our (the church's) 'failure' to teach disciples to obey all the commands of Jesus.
A detailed analysis of all of the commands of Jesus in the New Testament forms the basis for this work, grouping and summarising them into twelve themes that collectively present over eighty distinct commands (Kingdom Behaviours).
The main material is grouped under three Kingdom Fundamental headings. Two are outward focused - commands that relate to our need to 'Love God' and the requirement to 'Love Your Neighbour As Yourself'. The third addresses commands directed at our inner motivations and behaviours as individuals, under the Kingdom Fundamental title 'Follow Jesus'.
Each chapter includes Kingdom Practice sub-sections: two under 'Love God', four under 'Follow Jesus' and three under 'Love Your Neighbour As Yourself'.
At the lowest level (Kingdom Behaviours), related commands of Jesus are quoted, with any parallel biblical texts highlighted.
Diagrams are included throughout to build and demonstrate the simple structure that is the focus of this material.
This is for anyone with an interest in Jesus's teaching. Above all, those who are discipling fellow followers of Jesus and/or simply want to understand how Jesus's commands can be grouped into a simple to remember structure.

Teach Them To Obey - Studies for Disciples
by Duncan Matheson
Part 2 of the Teach Them To Obey series
Fourteen thought-provoking studies based upon a unique and comprehensive analysis of all the commands of Jesus, grouped and summarized into a simple-to-remember form of three high and nine lower-level themes.
The first study recognizes the 'Essential Need for the Holy Spirit in our Lives' rather than 'obeying' Jesus in our own strength.
Studies 2 to 4 center around the Kingdom Fundamental to 'Love God' and two supporting Kingdom Practices.
Studies 5 to 9 concentrate on the Kingdom Fundamental to 'Follow Jesus' and four related Kingdom Practices about our personal attitudes, actions and behaviors.
Studies 10 to 13 examine the Kingdom Fundamental to 'Love Your Neighbor As Yourself' and three Kingdom Practices that explain how to do this.
Lastly, Study 14 looks at the 'Outcomes from Putting Jesus's Command into Practice'.
Each study:
• Sets out the biblical support for the Kingdom Fundamental or Kingdom Practice
• considers 'Our Context' today
• how we can apply the teaching to our own lives using Jesus as our example
• some brief author reflections on the challenges of the topic
• and most, importantly a set of questions for reflection and discussion.
Throughout the book, diagrams are included that help to build and demonstrate the simple structure that is the focus of this material.
