    The fruitless fig tree and its meaning.

    Mark 11:12-11:24 We’re going to look from the scriptures at two of Jesus Christ’s most misunderstood actions. The two actions I’m talking about are: (a) Jesus Christ’s cursing of a fig tree and (b) his action of driving out the money changes from the Jewish temple. ...read more

    This is the account of Jesus clearing the temple. The questions we will ask today are, "What would Jesus do if He came into our church and looked at everything?" and "What would Jesus do if He came into our lives and looked at everything"? He IS here!

    Circumstances will always try to dictate doubt and unbelief every time. Remember this...”Faith isn’t swayed by circumstances, however circumstances are always swayed by Faith in God’s Abilities!”

    I’ll Take You There We live in a world where communication is key, its very important to all of us. An event, thought or idea can be instantaneously can be sent and received around the world.

    In Mark 11:12-22 Jesus curses a fig tree and kicks out a bunch of religious people from the temple. Both acts seem pretty straightforward but are in fact extremely momentous events that have far-reaching consequences.

    Monday - Cursing Fig Trees And Cleansing Temples Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Mar 7, 2022
     | 3,641 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

    Praying Through A Pandemic

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Feb 2, 2021
     | 6,744 views

    The church ought to pray with great expectation because (1) God sees our trials, (2) God hears our prayers (3) and God will take care of our enemies.

    Acts 12:5 “Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.” The graphic scene of Acts 12 is not strange to the Church. The church has always faced opposition. Since its inception, the devil has been trying to stop the church and even to ...read more

     | 4,724 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?

    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!

    The Lord Jesus arrived in Jerusalem hailed by the Jews as the Davidic king who would restore Israel. He arrived not for that purpose, but to fulfill Isaiah's prophecy of the Suffering Servant who restored all of HIs people back to God. The first step was to restore His house.

    The final week of Jesus' public ministry had started with His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, being hailed as the rightful heir of David and the One who would finally drive out the hated Roman Gentile oppressors and restore the nation of Israel back to its former glory, or so the people ...read more

    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.

    The Withered Fig Tree.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 17, 2022

     | 2,458 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
