    A look at the parable of the net in three stages and personal applications of this truth.

    INTRODUCTION In Matthew 13, there are seven parables Jesus told about the Kingdom of Heaven. We looked at two long parables, the Parable of the Sower and the Parable of the Wheat and Weeds. Then we looked at four short parables, the mustard seed, yeast, a buried treasure and a pearl of great ...read more

    The children of God that see and hear, hold visions in their hearts know of the angels' presence and know of the spiritual realm---what happens in the spirit and WAIT for the manifestation here on earth as we wait for the harvest of God.

    Angel Prayer by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (July 23, 2014) “Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing not see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall ...read more

    An Unfamiliar Kingdom

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Jul 27, 2014
     | 4,843 views

    While we all have preconceptions about what the kingdom of heaven is and isn't, Jesus uses parables to force us to rethink what the kingdom is.

    What is it that the Gospel message presents? I don’t simply mean today’s Gospel lesson, but the capital-G “Gospel.” The Gospel is not merely, “Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.” The proper name for them is the Gospel according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The ...read more

    Jesus wanted His disciples to understand His teachings so that they could be fruitful. He wants the same for us today.

    Matthew 13: 31 – 33, 44 – 52 / The Kingdom of Heaven Intro: I want you to pretend for just a moment that I am your own magic genie. But, I’m a very frugal genie and instead of giving you three wishes like most genies do, I’m only going to give you one wish. If you were ...read more

    The Nature Of The Kingdom

    This message explores the nature of the Kingdom of heaven and of God and how Christians participate in bringing it "on earth as it is in heaven."

    We are learning the ways we "shrink Jesus down," from his robust loving nature. ? Last week we discovered his surprising agenda-a kingdom not a religious club. Transformed people of the king transforming their world. * The tension exists today between Jesus and religion. Religion establishes a ...read more

    This is my fourth sermon in the series and looks at how we are to be productive as we act as God's kingdom here.

    It seems strange to mix the sacred with the everyday, to describe the eternal with the ordinary, the infinite with the finite. And yet that is exactly what Jesus did when looking for a way to illustrate the Kingdom of Heaven, a treasure in a field, a merchant looking for a pearl the tiniest of ...read more

    When looking at the parables, we have to make sure we get the main points and don’t get lost in the details. Here is the main point.

    Passage: Matthew 13:47-58 Intro: I love summaries! 1. something really satisfying about gathering info and drawing conclusions. 2. we have been looking at the parables from Matthew for some weeks. 3. and we have found some repetition. 4. so here at the last of these parables in this ...read more

    God is committed to us and we are called to be committed to Him. The mutual search reflects the value seen in the one being pursued.

    A compelling commitment: 3 stories, 3 views I once borrowed a tan, leather sports coat from my brother.

    A sermon that looks at the parable of the hidden treasure and the pearl of great value in light of the surrounding parables.

    Do you know where the phrase “buy the farm” comes from? It is actually rather recent in its usage. It started perhaps during WWI but certainly by WWII, having been recorded only in the 1950’s. Professor Jonathan Lighter has compiled the origin in the Random House Dictionary of American Slang. ...read more

    Even though the rich blessings God intends for us may appear to be of no more value than a seed or a handful of yeast we should not deceive ourselves.

    Lectionary 17 A Matthew 13:31-33, 44-52 This morning we heard a number of “One – Line Parables” that Jesus used to describe the Kingdom of God to illustrate how God’s power and authority is visible and expressed in our world.
