    The Missing Sheep And The Misplaced Silver

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 21, 2022
     | 1,309 views

    Are some Christians like missing sheep and misplaced silver? If so, what should we do?

    In verses 1 - 2: Why were the Pharisees bothered and irate that Jesus related with these individuals? The strict religious leaders were consistently mindful to remain “Clean” as per the Old Testament Law. Truth be told, they went well past the Law in their aversion of specific individuals and ...read more

    Perhaps some of us are feeling inadequate to do something for the kingdom. We can start by getting people to attend church. All it takes is to think of someone we know, and then to invite that individual to join us. It's that simple!

    This morning I wish to address a question that many believers have, and that is “How do we get people to come to church?” First of all, it is important for us to realize something I once saw stated on a church sign. Where the pastor’s name is normally listed, someone had posted this: “Minister: ...read more

    What should we do if we find a missing sheep? What should we do if we have misplaced silver?

    The Missing Sheep In verses one - two: Sinners, are the classification of people who were crossed or cast out by many of the religious people of the time. Publicans (tax collectors) were especially detested. Why were the Pharisees bothered and irate that Jesus related with these individuals? The ...read more

    A third perspective is what Jesus is saying about the sheep. That is, that left to their own devices, sheep will stray.

    Why do you suppose The Runaway Bunny is one of the most popular books for toddlers ever written? Because it reassures the child that whatever happens, she can’t get lost for good. Even if he gets mad and runs away, he still can’t get lost - because the mother bunny will always come after her child. ...read more

    God specializes in restoring those who are lost and gone away from Him. Everyone needs to be in the place God has assigned for us, for only there are we assured of God’s protection, privilege and we will also find our true worth.

    We read in Luke 15:20, “And he rose up and went to his own father. But while he was yet a long way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell upon his neck, and covered him with kisses.” (Darby) We meditated a little on this passage in the last sermon, considering ...read more

    When searching for a lost coin (lost person) the Lord gets to work! He lights a lamp and sweeps the house, like using a fine-tooth comb. The lost coin is like a jewel in a wedding headdress. We are to Jesus as a crown jewel!

    I wish to begin our message by first reading through tonight’s parable, and then we’ll take a closer look after I share a brief introduction.

    This parable is special, because it tells us a great deal about God the Father’s great love for mankind.

    Now we mortals love certain people, but if there are things in their life that we do not like, we generally brush them aside. We all can be thankful indeed that God the Father loves everyone, He even loves the most ungodly sinner on the face of the earth. He does not love their evil deeds, but He ...read more

    Time and again in the New Testament we see Jesus sharing parables and stories related to shepherds and sheep. It’s very very common. From psalm 23, talking about the rod and staff of the shepherd, to Jesus calling himself “the gate for the sheep” it’s throughout the scriptures.

    “Dr. Andrew Bonar told me how, in the Highlands of Scotland, a sheep would often wander off into the rocks and get into places that they couldn't get out of. The grass on these mountains is very sweet and the sheep like it, and they will jump down ten or twelve feet, and then they can't ...read more
