    The parable of the Seed and the Sower is full of spiritual insight for us as we see the world as a place where the Lord wishes to plant seeds and to harvest souls. In this first part we look mostly at the Scripture between the parable and the explanation

    The parable of the seed and the Sower is a snapshot of any society and most likely any congregation. How a person responds to the Word of God indicates what type of soil they are. The seed is perfect. The Sower is generous. What type of soil are you?

    Please take your Bibles and turn to Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23 NIV When I was a young teenager I actually did some broadcast sowing of seed. We were renting a field which was only a couple of acres and my Dad had plowed and dragged the field but we did not have a broadcast planter so we filled up ...read more

    The Kingdom of Heaven cannot be compared with any earthly treasures, and all earthly possessions cannot replace it, which is why we are encouraged to let go of all in order to grab hold of that made available by Christ through His sacrifice!

    Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: Who, when he had found one ...read more

    The soil, of course, represents the human heart, so the word of God falls on four different types of hearts. This parable is about salvation and three out of four of the soils represent people who are not genuinely saved.

    The Two Meanings Of "End"

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 3, 2013
     | 2,257 views

    There are two meanings to "end," and as we reach the conclusion of a liturgical year, we must plan for both.

    One of the legends circulating that purports to prove the superiority of the new liturgical calendar and new lectionary is that in the Extraordinary Form, we hear Scripture readings that really belong to the beginning of the year, not the end. Let’s be honest. We aren’t talking about ...read more

    Faith has great power. It has the power to bring to bear the Kingdom of Heaven upon the earth as I believe and receive eternal life. But UNBELIEF ALSO HAS THE POWER TO RELEASE THE POWER OF STUPIDITY. Psalms 53:1 (NLT) says "Only fools say in their hearts,
