Parables Of The Kingdom – The Third - The Mustard Seed - Part 3 Of 4 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 15, 2025

We have seen how the parable of the mustard seed matches to church at Pergamum, and in this study today we look into that letter John wrote. In that church God wanted overcomers. We’ll consider the Nicolaitans, the hidden manna, the white stone with the new name.

Contributed by Claude Alexander on Jun 20, 2020

For some people today tolerance is the only real virtue and intolerance the only vice. The message to Thyatira goes against the grain of modernity by setting limits to tolerance.

How To Stand When It Is Difficult To Stand (2 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 9, 2021

Preaching is a fascinating career. When a preacher first starts to preach, he soon begins to think he knows all about preaching. Then, after 5 or 10 years, he discovers how very little he knows about being a minister of the gospel.

What a tremendous advantage it is to have a veteran minister take him under his wings, and teach him things he needs to know. Illus: Such is the case, when Dr. Odell Belger was starting in the ministry, as a young man in his mid twenties. When he was called to a church, the church had just had a ...read more
