    The third in a series on the Parables of Jesus, this three-point, expository sermon explores the parable of the workers in the vineyard and the eleventh hour hire. It highlights the extravagant, endless, and equalizing grace of God!

    PARABLES OF JESUS ǀ THE LABORERS Scott Bayles, pastor Portions adapted from Max Lucado’s “Grace” & “In the Grip of Grace” Blooming Grove Christian Church: 2/9/14 Well over fifty years ago, during a conference on comparative religions, experts from around the ...read more

    Laborers In The Vineyard

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 18, 2014
     | 6,715 views

    The parable of the vineyard in Matthew 20 is almost mind boggling in scope and what can be extracted from it. In this sermon we are taking a look at the relationship between the owner and the workers and becoming an employee and the "doing".

    Now we need to remember that we can never take a scripture out of context. Just before this the Rich Young Ruler asks Jesus in Matthew 19:16b (NASB) “Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may obtain eternal life?” “Do” This was an underlying foundation in the mind of ...read more

    Jesus’ leadership command to His disciples was not one of lording it over others in entitlement, but rather selflessly serving them in humility.

    Originally preached on September 14, 2006 Sterling C. Franklin Chapel service, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School "Not So With You" Introduction Context -- Jesus was going up to Jerusalem since it was about time for the feast of Passover. This is a literal ’going up’ since Jerusalem is a city ...read more

    Profound bows, joining of hands for prayer, and striking our breast are all important adjuncts to our worship.

    Feast of St. James July 25, 2011 Spirit of the Liturgy Some of the apostles have paired feasts–Ss. Peter and Paul, Simon and Jude, Philip and James the Lesser.

    The pastor is not a dictator, but a ministering leader.

    Matt 20:25-28 25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. 26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; 27 And ...read more

    Some people say, “If I don’t look out for me, for my best interest, for what’s best for me, then who will?”

    Matthew 20:20-28-Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Him with her sons, kneeling down and asking something from Him. 21-And He said to her, “What do you wish?” She said to Him, “Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on the ...read more

    What Stops God!

    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,117 views

    What can stop God? Not something or someone more powerful than Him. The only thing in the bible that stopped God (Jesus) was when His children call out to Him. When Jesus heard His kids calling, He stopped. We should too.

    WHAT STOPS GOD? MATERIALS NEEDED - ENVELOPES, PENS/PENCIL, AND INDEX CARDS FOR ALL KIDS. TO BEGIN - PASS OUT A BLANK ENVELOPE TO EACH TEEN AND TELL THEM TO WRITE THEIR NAME AND ADDRESS ON THE FRONT OF THE ENVELOPE ADDRESSING IT TO THEMSELVES. WHY ARE WE DOING IT? I’LL TELL YOU ...read more

    A look at all of us who work in the vineyard and our attitude in our work.

    I can remember as a boy riding with my Dad into the downtown area, in my hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana, and seeing a crowd of men standing on a certain street. There were so many of them that there did not seem to be any room left to walk on the sidewalk. I asked my father what they were ...read more

    A different twist on the parable of the vineyard owner that offers who to those in desperate need of relief and recovery through the reforms of Jesus Christ.

    INTRO Between the years 1933 and 1936, President Franklin D. Roosevelt enacted a series of economic programs called “The New Deal.” "His programs served as a response to the effects of the Great Depression, and “focused on what historians call the "3 Rs": Relief, Recovery, and ...read more

    When Edward Everett Hale was Chaplain of the Senate, someone asked him, Do you pray for the senators, Dr. Hale? He replied, No, I look at the senators and I pray for the country. We all need to receive the Grace of God. It Is All About Grace! (Updated September 2023)

    Matthew 20:26-28 26 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first must be your slave-- 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

    Will I be rewarded for what I do for the cause of Christ? It is a question many Christians ask, and perhaps many more hold unconsciously in their mind.

    “For the kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And going out about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and ...read more
