    The Withered Fig Tree.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 17, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,450 views

    Today’s passage brings together two events which are not unrelated to each other: the cleansing of the Temple, and the withering of the fig tree. Both are figurative of the state and changing status of the old Jewish faith at the dawn of the gospel era.

    THE WITHERED FIG TREE. Mark 11:12-33. I. The Barren Fig Tree. Mark 11:12-14; Mark 11:20-26. As we see Jesus approaching the fig tree (Mark 11:12-13), we need to recollect that Jesus is God. The fig tree is a well-known symbol of Israel: ‘every man under his vine and his fig tree’ (cf. ...read more

    We find Jesus and His disciples in the middle today. There was a lot going on the Monday after Triumphal entry. It all happened in the middle, today I want to speak on the Miracle In The Middle.

    INTRODUCTION: A lot of things happen in the middle. For Example : Here is a simple fact: In order to come out of something, you first must go in. In order to get out of bed, you first must get in bed; To get out of the car, you have to get into the car; To get out of the room, ...read more

    Monday - Cursing Fig Trees And Cleansing Temples Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Mar 7, 2022
     | 3,629 views

    On Monday of Jesus' final week of earthly life, he cursed the fig tree and cleansed the temple. Both activities symbolized God's judgment on the fruitless religion of Israel. As disciple of Christ, we must be faithful and fruitful, and not cause others to stumble.

    A. Years ago, I decided to “edjumacate” myself by reading all the classic novels. 1. I decided to start with Herman Melville’s classic novel Moby Dick. 2. I didn’t get very far, because I just couldn’t take long chapter after long chapter describing the whaling harpoon – you can only say so much ...read more

    Why Are You Cooking Chili?

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,252 views

    How many events and programs does the church hold that do NOT make disciples for Christ? Resources should be directed to the mission - making disciples for Christ.

    Why are you cooking chili? Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 11:15-19 The Temple leaders allowed vendors to set up inside the Temple. A good question for that time would have been why did the Temple authorities allow the money changers and vendors into the outer court. The merchants could have ...read more

    Lent 2021 - Jesus Cleansing The Temple Series

     | 4,708 views

    On the final week before the crucifixion Jesus came to the temple and cleared those who were turning the place into a wicked market and bank. Does He have permission to enter into the temple of our spirits and do the same thing?

     | 5,814 views

    The account of Jesus and the unfruitful fig tree is one that surprisingly connects with the spiritual condition of the Jews in Jesus' time and with our spiritual conditions as well. May we bear much fruit for the Lord and bring glory to His Name!

    This is so well preached on that I would like to ask the question: Why did Jesus not tell the disciples the name of the owner/owners of the Donkey

    EMB 28-03-2021 “On a donkey, you must be kidding!” Luke 21:28-44 Often there’s more to a story than meets the human eye. And our Gospel reading in Luke 21 is no exception.

    Flippin Tables Series

     | 3,535 views

    Here is my thought: Jesus overturned the tables of the moneychangers in the Temple because they were making His Temple a place of selfish wickedness… how much more... will Jesus Christ overturn our lives when we commit ourselves to selfish wickedness.

    When Jesus arrived in Jerusalem, He went to the Temple and looked around. When Jesus visited the Temple the next day, He saw some things that He didn’t like and gives us insight on the church today. They knew Jesus was in town and yet it changed nothing!

    Luke 19:45-48 IN TIMES LIKE THESE April 3, 2022 Intro: Just the day before, Jesus had presented Himself to the people in Jerusalem, as their King and as their Messiah, in fulfillment of Zechariah 9:9. “Thy King is coming… riding on a donkey.” The people praised Jesus ...read more
