     | 6,348 views

    We are to receive God's truth in view of obeying it and sharing it with others.

    Jesus used parables to make truth simple and understandable. The previous parable to this passage concerned an agricultural metaphor that taught a lesson centered around the sower, seed, and soil. The primary lesson in that parable was that there are different responses to God's truth. All ...read more

  • Parables Lamp, Seed, Mustard Seed: The Mysterious Principle

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Aug 3, 2007
    based on 30 ratings
     | 12,530 views

    The three parables are examined in detail. These parables are eschatological in nature. These parables are written to give us reassurance in our faith right now and also to give us insight concerning the nature of the coming of the kingdom of God.

    Today in our Scripture Jesus teaches us three short parables which all tie together to form a fuller understanding of who God is and how he operates in our lives. You’ll notice as we read the Scripture today there are some verses that are quite difficult to understand and on a first reading we may ...read more

  • Fruitful Christian Living

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,010 views

    Jesus said that we, as His disciples, are to bear fruit. God told Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply, replenish the earth, and subdue it. The fruitful, the multiplying, and the other things are not all the same thing; in other words, it means mor

    I must admit, that while I’ve read this little section of Scripture many times, I have usually read over it pretty quickly, not taking the time to understand it’s meaning. Here’s a man sowing some seed, and the next involvement he has with it, is when he comes to harvest it. Now, we understand ...read more

  • A Kingdom Picture

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Jan 31, 2008
    based on 14 ratings
     | 3,598 views

    I used to think the phrase, Kingdom of God, meant only some future time, but I have come to understand that it means the Christian experience under the Lordship of Christ.

    I wonder what you think of when you read or hear the phrase, “Kingdom Of God?” Perhaps you think of some future time, when there will be perfect peace and no problems, when the ferocious beasts of the forest can be led around by little children. That’s what I used to think it meant, but I have ...read more

     | 7,739 views

    Using the mustard seed as an example, this message shows Christians that they nor the church must be large to succeed in the Kingdom of God. Don’t limit yourself or the church by what you can do!

    LITTLE IS MUCH IF GOD IS IN IT MARK 4:30-32 THE GOSPEL OF MARK HAS ONLY FOUR PARABLES, COMPARED TO 15-IN MATTHEW AND 19-IN LUKE. THE GOSPEL OF JOHN HAS NONE.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: Jack Wyrtzen used lots of stories in his preaching. One day someone was talking with one of the Word of Life staff members and said, “I heard Jack preach one of his “skyscraper messages” the other night.” The staff member asked what he meant by a “skyscraper message” ...read more

    This life is full of the storms of sorrow, problems and anxiety but Jesus understands and wants to replace our fear when we place our faith in Him and realize He is in the storm with us.
