The Wheat And The Darnel

Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Jul 18, 2020

In Church we will often find both wheat and Darnel growing side by side in the pews.Should we try to root the Darnel out and purify the church so we only have wheat (as we of course perceive it)

Mt 13:24-43 I came across this interesting story. I cannot vouch for its authenticity however but it makes a good point. Story: A man was stopped at a traffic light and when the light turned green he was distracted and didn’t budge. The lady in the car behind him started honking her horn again ...read more

Wheat And Weeds Series

Contributed by Brady Boyd on Apr 25, 2019

The Gardener’s Field Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 24, 2022

In the church, there will be unbelievers mixed in with God's people; however, Jesus warns us that it is not our place to judge. He also asks us to consider whether or not we are wheat or a tare; a believer or an unbeliever.

This evening’s message is entitled “The Gardener’s Field,” and it’s taken from what is commonly called “The Parable of the Wheat and the Tares.” In Genesis 2:8-9, we read, “The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. And out of the ground the Lord ...read more

Leave The Weed

Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Feb 8, 2020

"Weeding the garden" is something we believe is a good thing, but many times doing this can destroy the good roots around them. Jesus helps us grasp why working to remove the 'weeds' from your life is not necessarily His way of leading you.

Right… at first glance you may quickly think I am going to try convincing you how wrong it is to smoke marijuana… or to do drugs of any kind. No… this is not that kind of ‘weed removal’ encouragement… although… wait… OK… I’ll refrain! Rather, this is an admonition to be careful about being SO ...read more
