    The Exemplary Leadership Of Jesus Christ

    Contributed by Apostle Tonya on Oct 25, 2022
     | 1,780 views

    The exemplary leadership of our Savior whereby the Scriptures record He taught His Disciples and teaches leaders today.

    In the Gospels, we are favored by the Spirit of God to be introduced to our First Love, our Beloved Savior. It is also in these blessed pages wherefore we read of our Majesty’s Earthly Ministry and His Followers whom hungered and listened while our Holy Lord most masterfully taught: astonishingly ...read more

    The Good Samaritan

     | 60,157 views

    Jesus told this parable in answer to a lawyer on how eternal life could be gained - perfect obedience to the law of love - and when obtained how it is demonstrated.

    Jesus once told a story - the Good Samaritan - which has been a favourite ever since. It’s a charming, human-interest story, but at the same time it carries a sharp message. All of us are guilty of committing many types of sin. There are sins of omission - things we don’t do which we should, and ...read more

    The parable of the sower and the mustard seed from Mark’s gospel, and what they reveal to us about God’s kingdom and God’s world

    Becoming a father for the third time over the last couple of months has reminded me again of the wonder of creation. Throughout the natural world, in humanity and in animals and plant life, the same story can be seen – of amazing growth and beauty coming out of something that begins so small. This ...read more

     | 7,177 views

    Using the parable of the wheat and the tares, addresses the problem of evil and specifically the terrible events the American people have suffered, with love and prayers from England.

    Minute’s silence. None of us can have failed to be moved, shocked, numbed perhaps in disbelief at the sights we’ve seen this week. · The Terror of the events as they unfolded, the graphic images so familiar from action films yet so far removed from real life for most of us- until now. I’m sure ...read more

    Christ Is The Sure Anchor Of The Believer

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Nov 7, 2002
    based on 91 ratings
     | 12,316 views

    The story of a ship in danger of drifting in a storm but kept safe by its anchor when it fastened to an immoveable object. A Parable of the believer’s security in Christ.

    CHRIST IS THE SURE ANCHOR OF THE BELIEVER Our harbour isn’t big enough to take the cruise liners that visit our Island. They have to stay out in the channel, half a mile from the harbour mouth. We may wonder if they’re secure from drifting when their great engines are no longer turning, when the ...read more

    Don't Excuse Yourself From God's Banquet Of Salvation

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Nov 19, 2003
    based on 68 ratings
     | 8,397 views

    In the parable of the great banquet Jesus gives us a graphic warning about excusing ourselves from God’s feast of salvation in time and in eternity.

    “Are you looking for just the right excuse for a certain situation? Ask your pastor he has heard them all.” Although more of joke than advice there is some truth to it. Pastors do hear a lot of excuses. But I think it would be more correct to say that only God has truly heard all the excuses ...read more

     | 10,324 views

    This is the 7th of 7 signs where John shows his readers who Jesus was in acted parables. This sign is the climax revealing that Jesus is the "LIFE".

    BRINGING OUT THE DEAD The Monty Python troupe touched on a very real issue of the Middle Ages in their movie about the quest for the Holy Grail: Death! So many people were dying 800 years ago at so fast a rate that there was no time to bury them. Carts were brought around to ...read more

    We have previously pointed out that it is important to carefully note the manner and method in which these seven parables are arranged, for their order provides key to their interpretation.

    We have previously pointed out that it is important to carefully note the manner and method in which these seven parables are arranged, for their order provides key to their interpretation. The first parable is different than the other six. The phrase “the kingdom of heaven” is missing from the ...read more

    A sermon that looks at Jesus’ parables about the kingdom of heaven - the buried treasure and the pearl of great price. Calls folk to rediscover it’s significance.

    When I was a child a treasure was???? What was a treasure when you were a child? For me it was a new packet of crayons and a colouring in book. A toy gun or a metal tractor? A tree hut. These were all treasures. When I was fourteen I was in the local milk bar when my Father’s wrecked car ...read more

    The parable of the dishonest steward is perhaps the most uncomfortable one to preach on. But, there may be more there to learn than we had previously thought.

    A man took his seat in the theater, but he was too far from the stage. He whispered to the usher, "This play is a mystery, and I like this type of play so much I really watching them close up so I can catch all of the dialogue. If you’ll get me a better seat I’ll give you a handsome tip." So, ...read more

    The parable of the great supper, teaches us of the invitation of God to everyone to join Him in the feast, the excuses of man not to come and finally the results of not accepting the invitation.

    Come; for All Things Are Now Ready Luke 14:16-24 Intro In the parable of the great supper, our Lord presents a picture of the blessings of Christianity under the figure of a wonderful banquet in which everything has been provided by God who is the generous Host. The world promises much to those ...read more

    Of Grace And Envy

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Oct 17, 2010

     | 5,226 views

    How is the Kingdom of heaven to be understood in light of laboring for Christ while the world enjoys the pleasures of sin? The parable of Jesus in Matthew 20 is helpful here.

    Matthew 20:1-16 Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard Jesus introduces this parable saying that the kingdom of heaven is like this. That's an impressive, if not disturbing introduction to this particular parable for many reasons. I believe that the kingdom of heaven in Matthew's gospel applies ...read more

    The purpose of this sermon is to motivate the hearers to affirm to others that just as David were the central object in the parable; as believers, we are always the central object of Scripture.

    U.S. Army Chaplain (MAJ) Ken Harris, Jr. West Fort Hood Chapel Second Sunday of June Killeen, TX 13 June 2010 Big Idea: God is speaking to us. Just as we are always present in our dreams regardless of what the dream is about; we are the central object. Likewise, we are always in the center of ...read more

    This sermon addressed the problem of hypocrisy based on the Parable of the Ten Virgins. Hypocrisy can only be cured by recognizing it and by discovering Jesus' unhypocritical love for us.

    Introduction It’s foolish to be a pretender. Just ask John Corcoran. John never learned to read in elementary school. Somehow the teachers just kept passing him along. When he got to high school he became at expert at cheating. He turned in other people’s work. He said ...read more
