    Kingdom of heaven is like seed being sown. This includes seed sown is us to yield a harvest and us being sown as well.

    Introductory Considerations 1. How could anyone not understand? The message of salvation is a simple one. The story of God’s great persistent love for us and the story of our rebellion. 2.

    Help for the hurting heart.

    True spirituality is discussed a lot but seldom experienced in today’s world. Jesus faced the same problem. So the Lord used parables, stories of familiar things, to point out how unfamiliar people truly were with spirituality. Here in His famous story of the farmer scattering seed Jesus ...read more

    Attitudes to avoid because they promote shallow spirituality.

    Last week we looked at "surface spirituality", the soil that did not receive the seed because it had been "walked on" and was hardened. We learned that we can develop a hardened heart when others hurt us if we’re not careful. If we let our hearts become bitter and unforgiving the Word of God ...read more

    The Form Of Discipleship Of Jesus (1 Of 3) Series

    based on 22 ratings
     | 9,896 views

    Discipleship was not simply a program through which Jesus ran the disciples. Discipleship was life.

    In the New Testament mathethes occurs only in the Gospels and Acts. The term occurs at least 230 times in the Gospels and 28 times in Acts. The usage is characterized by the fact that mathethes denotes the men and women who have attached themselves to Jesus as their master. Acts has an absolute ...read more

    God & Golf & You

    Contributed by Charles Clary on Sep 30, 2004
    based on 29 ratings
     | 10,813 views

    This is a sermon which compares the game of golf to the game of life.

    The latter portion of my text reads, "....and without a parable spake He not unto them." Today I will use a parable or a comparison to illustrate the game of life. It is obvious that the Apostle Paul was knowledgeable of the sporting events of his day. On numerous occasions he used athletics to ...read more
