    Angels - what the bible says about them as opposed to the world. Long list of Scriptures about angels included.

    An angel appeared at a faculty meeting and told the dean that in return for his unselfish service, he will be rewarded with his choice of wealth, wisdom, or beauty. Without hesitating, the dean selects wisdom. "It is done!" the angel said, and then disappeared into a cloud of smoke. All of the ...read more

    Just how valuable is Jesus to you? Is He more of a common rock you use to skip across the water or buried treasure so valuable he is worth everything you own and more?

    Most American kids love pirates. I was also among them—I’m not sure if it was the adventure of the open seas, the outfits, or those great accents that did it for me. Of course, the reality of pirates is something quite different than the romanticized “Pirates of the ...read more

    Sermon for the 6th Sunday after Pentecost. How parables reveal the nature of God's kingdom.

    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 Parable Treasure And Pearl / I Surrender All

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Jul 28, 2011
    based on 410 ratings

    What, then, do the parables teach? Church fathers such as Irenaeus and Augustine identified the treasure and the Pearl with Christ. The recent convert to Christianity says exactly the same thing: "I found Christ." Yes, it seems like we did find Christ.

    In his series of seven parables in Chapter 13, Matthew is quite elaborate ....... on the first two, providing an interpretation for each. The other five are shorter and more pointed in content. The parables of the hidden treasure and of the pearl consists of two sentences each. And in the ...read more

    The Reality Of Judgment

     | 3,186 views

    What about all those whose crimes were never discovered and never received the punishment due them? There is a day of judgment coming. No one is going to get by with anything.

    The first is this: Free will makes hell necessary. Hell is God’s great compliment to the human race — by it he is saying, “If you do not wish to live with me, you don’t have to ” And if people do not wish to live with God, there must be a place where they can be ...read more

    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 Parable Of The Net Series

    Jesus gives 1) A vivid picture of judgment (Matthew 13:47–48), 2) A brief explanation of the principle of judgment (Matthew 13:49), and 3) A sobering warning about the peril of judgment (Matthew 13:50).

    Francis Chan’s new book, Erasing Hell, will be on the shelves from July 5 countering Rob Bell’s recent work, Love Wins. Bell acknowledges hell’s existence on earth but finds it difficult to believe that it is forever and that God can punish non-Christians for all eternity. Chan, on the other hand, ...read more

    It is cast over men and women, married and single, young and old, hearing and deaf, sighted and blind, speaking and mute (For those who want to be POLITICALLY CORRECT that's matrimonially, chronologically, aurally, visually and vocally challenged)...

    Matthew 13:47-50 – POLITICAL CORRECTNESS AND HELL - Part 18 My starsign is Pisces (the FISH). I don't read the stars so relax, but it has always interested me that the sign of the fish was used by early Christians as a secret symbol.

    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

    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

    What Is The Kingdom Like?

     | 4,826 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

    God's Power Toward Us Who Believe

    Contributed by Mike Bryant on Mar 3, 2021
     | 4,382 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
