    Gods work alone!

    BY ITSELF! Mark 4:26-32 26 And He was saying, "The kingdom of God is like a man who casts seed upon the soil; 27 and he goes to bed at night and gets up by day, and the seed sprouts and grows--how, he himself does not know. 28 "The soil produces crops by itself; first the blade, then the ...read more

    Mustard seed and the kingdom with practical examples

    I’ll begin by saying that our second reading is a very complicated passage indeed. Indeed, it’s so complicated and obscure that I’ve decided to say nothing about this morning, and concentrate on our gospel reading, because it would be too long and involved to try and make sense of it now. So, ...read more

    The Small Seed

    The Kingdom of God will grow because God is working. Growth comes from Him and it has nothing to do with the size of the seed.

    Both parables set out to teach us, "What the Kingdom of God is like." Note two things,(1) Growth is taking place because God is working, (2) Growth has nothing to do with the Size of the Seed Growth comes from God. Jesus uses the illustration of a farmer to emphasize this point. • The farmer ...read more

    Are You Truth Proof? Series

    Many people have bullet-proof armor around their hearts - so that God’s truth simply bounces off. Learn about how to have a soft heart and fertile soil to grow God’s truth

    Have you ever heard the expression: “they only hear what they want to hear”? Its true – and its also very dangerous. Today Jesus is going to say things that just bounce off the hearers – the crowds, and His disciples. It involves accepting the truth – and in trusting the Lord at His word. I want ...read more

    When it comes to God’s kingdom, at times we are unimpressed. But wait and see.

    Ezekiel 17:22-24 WAIT AND SEE Where do fireworks come from? This past weekend, many of you watched fireworks, and if you weren’t watching them, then you probably heard them. Where do they come from? How did this custom of shooting off fireworks begin? Fireworks were invented in China. Very ...read more

    The Kingdom Stands

    Pentecost 4: Jesus’ comforting words about the Kingdom span the ages to bring comfort and assurance to the believer.

    The lens through which we can see things doesn’t provide the full panorama of the Kingdom. “For we know in part and we prophesy in part… Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror… Now I know in part…” (1 Corinthians 13.9a, 12a, 12c) Sometimes what we think that we see is really not; that ...read more

    Because God loved you first, You are special

    I am quite intrigued as to why, when Jesus spoke in parables so everyone could understand them, he then felt the need to explain them to his disciples later. I wonder if it was to give his disciples a chance to challenge and question what he had said earlier. A chance to see the reasoning and the ...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.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: A little over 75 years ago a little known American inventor, born of Russian descent named Vladimir Kosma Zworykin began to work for the Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Over the next few years Mr. Zworykin worked on an idea called an iconoscope and a kinescope. The ...read more

    In Mark 1:15, Jesus says the kingdom of God is near, meaning that in the person of Jesus God’s kingdom comes near. If the kingdom has come near, what in the world is God doing?

    WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOD DOING? Mark 4:21-34 INTRO: In Mark 1:15, Jesus says the kingdom of God is near, meaning that in the person of Jesus God’s kingdom comes near. God has arrived on the scene, to establish his rule, take back what is his. If that is so, then I have some questions: 1. Why are ...read more

    Only a few parables are found in Mark. Most of those are found in Mark 4.

    Mk. 4:1-34 JESUS SPEAKS IN PARABLES A. Recently, hearing about the trial of John Allen Muhammad, has seemed to be a mysterious case to me. 1. He had not only won the chance to represent himself as his own defense and lawyer - but I read that he is out to prove to the nation that he had ...read more

    The joy of our faith is about much more than going to church. We don’t just have a building, we have a kingdom awaiting us. We don’t just have a leader, we have the King in Jesus.

    That Magnificent Kingdom Mark 4:21-34 This past week I was getting my oil changed and I had a chance to present the gospel to the guy in the waiting room with me. For me, waiting rooms are the best places for evangelism because the people are sitting there with nothing to do. The oil change ...read more

    Parables Lamp, Seed, Mustard Seed: The Mysterious Principle

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Aug 3, 2007
    based on 30 ratings
     | 13,321 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

    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. THREE OF THE PARABLES IN MARK ARE FOUND IN THE FOURTH CHAPTER, AND THEY ARE ALL RELATED TO SOWING SEED. AFTER THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER IN ...read more

    On the occasion of a weekend conference for training men in worship, this sermon challenges the men to expect God’s blessing on their small beginning.
