    Jesus tells the parable of the wheat and the weeds to reveal characteristics of the Kingdom of God. God's kingdom isn't obsessed with judgment and eradicating evil, and neither should we.

    A Simple And Reproducible Truth

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Apr 22, 2014
     | 4,248 views

    The teaching of Jesus is not complicated. Love God and love others. We do this by serving people and sharing the Good News of Jesus with them. And Obey God. We do this by submitting to the authority of Jesus through prayer and living out His Will, His purpose and priorities.

    Last week we discussed that the core of Jesus teaching is this truth, He must be at the center of all we do and think. Last Sunday we discussed the priorities of Jesus. His two priorities are to love God and others and to obey God. These are His priorities so they must be the priorities of ...read more

    THE FREEDOM OF FORGIVENESS Matthew 18:21-35 In Matthew 18:15-20, Jesus teaches his disciples how to respond to a sinning brother.
