    The parable of ther lost coin. Of the features of the parable have you considered your part, have you considered what it takes to be the broom? A very short illustrative sermon.

    Being the broom. Luke 15:8-10 Jesus tells us this little wee parable about lost people being found; in it he compares those people to a silver coin a lost silver coin. Now in our day and age with rampant inflation a silver coin is for most of us not a big deal. Back in the day this coin a ...read more

    2nd Corinthians 11 and the Parable of the Sower both Show us God as the Strength in our Weakness.

    As we look at our lessons today, and I want to look briefly at both, comparing them together, (Glory to God) I’ll begin by sharing an old story some of you may know about a man named Phi-Dipp-adeez. I’d actually be impressed if you knew his name, but you probably know the name Marathon and Nike, ...read more

    Through Jesus Parables we will be given “knowledge of the secrets of the Kingdom of Heaven” not the kingdom of this earth. The knowledge that will be imparted to us will come from the Lamb of God Himself.

    Eyes, Ears and Heart Matthew 13:1-23 NIV Last year our Sunday messages went through a series of topics on a closer walk with God that taught us how to be better disciples of Jesus. You may or may not have realized it but for 30 weeks that is what I spoke about. It was my prayer that these ...read more

    If we invest our talents now, we have so much to look forward to.

    Matthew 25:14-30 I. Context This story is told in the middle of pages of Jesus talking about His second coming. From Ch. 24 v.1, to the end of Ch. 25, it’s all about the “End of the Age”, and His return to rule this planet, and look at our “accounts”. II. What’s a Talent?

    Jesus most taught about one subject the most which was the Kingdom of Heaven or God and He primarily used Parables to teach about the Kingdom of Heaven – to describe it, to get in it, to live for it, to be rewarded by it, to be ready for it when it comes into its literal reign.

    Beyond the self-denial of following Christ, beyond the daily discipline, beyond the cross to be carried, lies the most precious thing, a thing of supreme and unsurpassed beauty: life in the Kingdom, under God and for God and with God!

    When you open the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark and Luke, it seems that more often that not, Jesus is speaking in some parable. With colourful language, Jesus places things “side by side,” comparing and contrasting, and drawing out from the picture he paints some truth or teaching. Sometimes the ...read more

    Three parables carrying one message: the lost sheep; the lost coin; and the Prodigal son.

    LOST AND FOUND. Luke 15. ‘Horror of horrors!’ proclaimed the scribes and Pharisees. The tax-collectors and ‘sinners’ were drawing near to hear the words of Jesus! The three parables which follow in Luke 15 show the calm response of the Master. In fact, whilst there are three parables, the ...read more

    Jesus gave this parable to His disciples after the rich young ruler had come running to Jesus but had walked away. Look for the "go thy way" in the text--it may surprise you!

    Introduction: Just after the rich young ruler came running to Jesus, and walked away, Jesus gave this parable about workers in a vineyard. This was one of the last parables Jesus ever told. The immediate context stems from the disciples’ reaction to what Jesus said to the rich young ruler. Peter, ...read more
