    God's Hidden Kingdom

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jul 25, 2011
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,707 views

    What God is doing is hidden. It must be searched for and we must have eyes to see. When we believe this, it changes the way we see life and how we live.

    I am one of those people who sometimes wishes that God would show his power and do something spectacular. I would like to see some fire fall from heaven, or hear God shout from his throne. It would prove to some people that he is there and that he is powerful. I wish I could lay my hands on ...read more

    Understanding what it means for us when Jesus compares the kingdom of heaven to fine pearls

    INTRO What lady doesn’t like pearls? I know mine does. A number of years ago, when Hallie was just a little tike, a Chinese man we knew gave Danielle a string of pearls as a gift. Okay — not what you’re thinking. We were considering bringing this man into our (former) ...read more

    These are the last days and the Bible makes us to understand that part of the signs of the last days is that the enemy of man’s soul is going to be much more horrible and wicked. The Bible says that evil men shall wax stronger and stronger. Therefore, in

    Our message this week is entitled, “The garden of evil planters.” We shall start by considering Matthew 13: 24-28 which says, “Another parable put He forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which seweth good seed in his field. But while men slept, his ...read more

    The Parable Treasure And Pearl / I Surrender All

    based on 409 ratings
     | 82,319 views

    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

    Based on the Parable of the Weeds, this sermon examines how Satan works within the church and how the church overcomes.

    Resident Evil Matthew 13.24-43 Introduction Jesus prepares the disciples and the church for troubles that lie ahead. The Bible tells us that Satan attacks the church constantly. We usually think of those attacks coming from the outside as Peter said, “The devil prowls about like a ...read more

    Jesus, during one day of preaching used six different parables describing what Heaven was like. This sermon examines the parable of the leaven and how it relates to our mission as followers of Christ.

    Good morning. There was a pastor who was preaching on going to heaven. He said to his congregation, ‘How many of you would like to go to heaven tonight?’ Everybody raised their hands, except a little boy up in the balcony. The pastor tried again, ‘How many of you would like to ...read more

     | 8,423 views

    In the Garden of Eden sin decided to invade and seperate man from the Kingdom rule of God. However two thousand years ago Jesus came to re-establish that Kingdom rule through us. The Kingdom has come and the battle has begun.

    Sermon preached after a presentation by New Horizons. We are beginning a series on Kingdom living today. Often when we hear about the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Heaven we envision a future Kingdom that will one day either take us up to it or will descend upon us. However the Bible teaches us ...read more

     | 5,170 views

    Jesus promises that when we pay attention, understand, and obey what we have been taught He will give us the keys to unlock the secrets of the Kingdom.

    Two kingdoms are at war with each other, the kingdom of sin that leads to death and the Kingdom of Jesus that leads to life. Two kingdoms in an epic battle for each of us. Last week I declared that the battle has begun against the illegal actions that sin has taken toward the will of God. Last week ...read more

     | 9,007 views

    We live in a world where wheat and weeds live together. How we live can convert the weeds to wheat. This sermon looks at a four step program to accomplish this.

    Last week we acknowledged the existence of two spiritual kingdoms. There is the kingdom of sin that established itself in rebellion against God’s rule. And there is the Kingdom of Jesus that is crying out for us to rise up against the kingdom of sin. We also acknowledged the fact that we ...read more

     | 6,981 views

    Jesus describes his Kingdom as a pinch of yeast and a mustard seed. But it is the empty tomb that makes these useful.

    Over the past few weeks we have spent a great deal of time discovering truths about the Kingdom of Jesus. We have discovered that it lives within us and empowers us to do great things for him. We have discovered that we are to co-exist in a world filled with sinners and influence them without ...read more

    In Matthew 13, Jesus preached 7 parables that detail the history of His kingdom on this earth. In this parable, He tells of God's great love for believers, so much that He purchases the whole world to redeem a few out of it!

    The Treasure Is in a Field Matthew 13:44 Introduction: 1. Today, we are going to pick apart just one verse of scripture. 2. We may compare several others to it, but mainly we will discuss all the possibilities of the verse at hand. 3. We will look at it from three perspectives. 4. Really ...read more

    The good news about the parable of the weeds is we don’t have to speculate about the meaning, the Lord gives us a full interpretation. Four personal lessons we can apply to our lives.

    INTRODUCTION In Matthew 13 Jesus tells seven classic parables about the Kingdom of heaven. Last week we studied the parable of the Sower, which also is recorded in Mark and Luke. Today we’re going to examine the parable of the “Wheat and Weeds,” which appears only in Matthew. ...read more

    The parable of the sower is a picture of the seed of the Word of God. There is amazing potential in that seed, but we must provide the right kind of soil for it to grow.

    INTRODUCTION This is the 40th message in the series I call “Parables and Miracles.” The word “parable” means, “to throw alongside.” A parable may be an analogy or metaphor where Jesus lays down a natural truth and then throws a spiritual truth alongside it. But ...read more

    God delights in using small things for great purposes. How the parables of the mustard seed and the yeast apply to our lives.

    INTRODUCTION Matthew 13 contains seven parables Jesus gives about the Kingdom of heaven. Most of His stories are based on agriculture, because all the people living in Galilee understood gardening. If you’re a gardener, these parables make more sense to you than to the non-gardeners.
