     | 5,145 views

    Why would Jesus describe His Kingdom like this? What makes His Kingdom so valuable, so priceless that even if you had to sell everything you own to get it, it would be worth it? The Kingdom of God is infinitely valuable because this is where we find and h

    God's Expectation Series

    Contributed by Rule Digal on Aug 11, 2008
     | 10,037 views

    The focal point of this parable is God’s expectation of His people, Israel or Christians. God is the owner of the vineyard who inspects and expects the fig tree –His people to bear fruit.

    This morning, we will study the parable of the barren fig tree. This parable is one of the shortest parables of our Lord in the Gospels. We don’t have fig trees here in the Philippines, so most of us I believe have not seen a fig tree. Fortunately, the internet is giving us anything we want to ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,666 views

    Prayer is our communication line to God. Let us keep it always open, operative, and if possible, busy. God is very eager to respond to our prayers more than we are eager to receive the answer of our prayers.

    Attitudes of Prayer Luke 11: 5-13 Note: Some materials of this sermon are taken from sermoncentral.com This morning we will examine the parable which is commonly called: “The Friend at Midnight.” Jesus gave this parable to His disciples after giving them the model prayer in response to their ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 18,854 views

    “What does it take to be a good and faithful servant of God?” I believe every true believer wants God to find and commend them the same way the Master in this parable found and commended the first two servants who were doing the task given to them.

    Good & Faithful Servant of the Lord Matthew 25: 14-30 nOTE: Some materials of this sermon are taken from sermoncentral. com Introduction The parable of the Pharisee and the Tax-collector which we have examined last Sunday teaches us how to approach God in a way that is acceptable to Him.

    Eternal destiny? Attitude? Eternal Separation?

    Lazarus and the Rich Man Luke 16.19-30 This parable is often ignored or used for evangelistic sermons about the permanency and reality of heaven and hell. Whilst it does deal with both of those subjects, that is not actually the core teaching of this parable. As always let us set the parable in ...read more

    This event teaches us something about God, something about people and something about entry into God’s kingdom. The sermon challenges Christians in our attitudes towards children in particular.

    Today’s Bible reading tells us something about God. It tells us something about people; and it tells us something about entry into God’s Kingdom. It tells us that some people will enter God’s kingdom and it tells us that some people will not enter God’s kingdom. In Luke’s gospel today’s Bible ...read more
