    Just as the dragnet sweeps in all kinds of creatures, the kingdom will contain all kinds of people; meaning that God isn’t picky about who enters into heaven, so long as they confess Jesus as Lord and are committed to living for Him.

    This evening we will be looking at “The Parable of the Dragnet.” What in the world is a dragnet? William Barclay says, “The dragnet is what we know as the seine net, a large net which has corks at the top and weights at the bottom so that it stands, as it were, upright in the sea. Ropes attached ...read more

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 1, 2022
     | 1,841 views

    Are you ready for the truth? Growing up in this world there was always a splinter in my mind. I was taught a particular way of life. I didn’t see anything beyond it. Life was a happy accident. Get rich. Have a family. Pay your taxes

    “The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our ...read more

    Most scholars believe Matthew was written between 70 and 85 A.D. (C.E.) He combines the 7 parables to explain the reality of why "good" exists along side of "evil". (movie Sound of Freedom) an example. Why are believers even in the church failing?

     | 1,290 views

    Truly BEING in love involves much more than an emotional high. It does need an emotional component, but, if it’s authentic, it demands engagement of the mind

    Seventeenth Sunday in Course 2023 I suppose those of us over the age of twenty had at least one experience of falling in love, and I mean with another human being. When I remember that time–over a period of about a month with my wife–certain emotions come to the surface. But truly BEING in love ...read more

  • He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Parable Of The Net) # 3

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 15, 2022
     | 2,107 views

    This is a fascinating parable the Lord used in teaching something He wanted men to know about the kingdom of heaven.

    Many of the things we hear about the kingdom of heaven today are not the truth. For example, many ministers today, if they do not come out and preach it, they imply that if you live a good moral life and attend church frequently, when you die you will go to heaven. But the fact is, the Bible ...read more

     | 4,333 views

    Man has always sought unlimited power. God has given believers just that. What is this power that God has given us, and how do we avoid squandering it?

    I) The search for unlimited power has been constant theme of history. A) Politically, we see this in attempts throughout history to rule the world. For example, Alexander the Great ruled Greece at the age of sixteen and soon set out on a conquest that saw him ruling most of the known Western ...read more

    A relationship with God, His Son Jesus and His Holy Spirit is the most valuable aspect of life.

    This week we begin a summer series entitled, Tell Me A Story. “Tell me a Story” is a simple way to reference Jesus' use of parables to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson.

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,754 views

    Beyond the self-denial of following Christ, beyond the daily discipline, beyond the cross to be carried, lies the most precious thing, a thing of supreme and unsurpassed beauty: life in the Kingdom, under God and for God and with God!

    When you open the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark and Luke, it seems that more often that not, Jesus is speaking in some parable. With colourful language, Jesus places things “side by side,” comparing and contrasting, and drawing out from the picture he paints some truth or teaching. Sometimes the ...read more
