Matthew 12:38-42 | Something Greater Is Here
Jan 25, 2026 • Michael Johnson
This sermon explores how the scribes and Pharisees demanded signs from Jesus on their own terms, even after witnessing His miracles. Jesus responded by pointing them to the sign of Jonah. He declared that something greater than Jonah and Solomon had come, yet this generation refused to repent.
The implications for our spiritual life are profound: we must guard against fashioning a Christianity that's comfortable for us rather than surrendering fully to Christ's lordship. Jesus isn't merely a helpful addition to our lives, He is the consuming fire who deserves complete control.
