    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,180 views

    Our prayers are affected by the way we understand God. Jesus uses this quirky parable to drive home that God is passionate about humanity and, in particular, your well-being.

When the pharmacist asked him about the three boxes, he said, “Well, I’m going over to a new girlfriend’s house for supper. Then we’re going out. ...read more

     | 3,164 views

    Like an unexpectedly huge mustard plant, the kingdom will grow and comfort, in unexpected ways.

    Like Malformed Mustard Mark 4:30-32 The kingdom of God is like a VW Beetle. It is one of the smallest cars you will ever see. It is not very comfortable or powerful. It is not very stylish or practical. It is very cheap and not impressive in any way. There is no status with owning one. And yet, ...read more

    Come To The Banquet

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Dec 5, 2005
    based on 8 ratings
     | 6,277 views

    There are many excuses we can offer for not accepting the invitation to come to the banquet which God has prepared, but none of our excuses are valid because Jesus deals with them all.

    Friends in the Lord, One thing you can guarantee when you have Jesus over to your place for dinner is that the table conversation will always be very interesting. Which is exactly what is happening in our text. But the teachings of Jesus aren’t recorded just because they are “interesting”. The ...read more

    The failure to live by the gospel is found in people’s hearts.

    Jesus’ Parables We come to our first parable this morning, so we ought to consider before we get into it, what is a parable? I’ll give you a starting definition. A parable is a picture with a point. The picture may be a story such as the tale of the good Samaritan. It may be an ...read more

    Rain needs fertile soil in order to accomplish anything. But the soil needs compost in order to live. So also do our lives need God-processed garbage in order to bear fruit.

    How do you lose your soul? It’s a slow progression.

    Jesus had a lot to say but sometimes people wouldn’t listen. They say that preaching is the fine art of talking in someone else’s sleep. There was a man that was so preoccupied with other thoughts that he missed what Jesus had to say. I want you to hear what Jesus is saying! Jesus sermon ...read more

    If we allow worries and riches and pleasures of life instead of focusing on God’s Word, our lives will be suffocated, held back, even taken over and not have a life of significance.

    We have been studying the Gospel of Luke and we have been learning from the parable of the Sower and the Seeds. What’s a parable? Picture this in your mind for a moment; it is early in the morning in the Philippines, you’re in a large room where several hundred people are seated; they are all ...read more
