    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Aug 3, 2007
    based on 30 ratings

    The three parables are examined in detail. These parables are eschatological in nature. These parables are written to give us reassurance in our faith right now and also to give us insight concerning the nature of the coming of the kingdom of God.

You’ll notice as we read the Scripture today there are some verses that are quite difficult to understand and on a first reading we may ...read more
