Overview

So far, Jesus has said some hard things, responding to John the Baptist, who sent word that he’s doubting and offended by Jesus. Now we come to the part of Matthew 11 that is like a dessert.

Occasionally you come to words like this, and you realize what makes them so great is that they are utterly simple and yet absolutely comprehensive. If you’re thinking about Christianity, if you’re looking at Christianity, this is a matchless summary.

These words from Jesus are an invitation. In this invitation, Jesus 1) tells us two things we already have, and then 2) offers us certain things in their place instead.
