    15. The Kingdom Parables – The Fourth – The Leaven – Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 1, 2025
     | 158 views

    This message looks at several comments and opinions and proves that the Parable of the Leaven is that of evil permeating the Church and the world. It brought in a corrupting influence. Leaven is never good! What is the woman, and three measures and the meal in this parable?

    15. THE KINGDOM PARABLES – THE FOURTH – THE LEAVEN – Part 2 We are doing a series on the Kingdom Parables of Matthew 13 and this message continues the fourth one, the LEAVEN. In the last study, we looked at the biblical mentions of leaven to see that it always stood for evil without exception, ...read more

    16. The Kingdom Parables – The Fourth – The Leaven – Part 3 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 8, 2025
     | 184 views

    We look into the church at Thyatira in more detail to see how wicked it really was. That church parallels the Parable of the Leaven. It also represents the period of Church History with the development of the Roman Catholic Church that grew out of the Pergamum church.

    16. THE KINGDOM PARABLES – THE FOURTH – THE LEAVEN – Part 3 NOW WHERE IS THIS PARABLE LEADING US? We have seen in the first three parables of the kingdom that each parable associates itself with one of the churches of Asia Minor to whom John wrote, and also, that each parable associates with ...read more

    The Parable Shocks But Christ's Message Is Powerful

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 16, 2025
     | 433 views

    The goal is to spread the message of Christ and His Church of the will of God to save all human beings. If the authorities are dragging us off to jail it’s hard to fulfill that mission.

    Twenty-fifth Sunday in Course 2025 Reading today’s excerpt from the letter of Saint Paul to Timothy, you might get the impression that the goal of any church congregation is to “lead a quiet an tranquil life in all devotion and dignity.” That sounds like an average middle-class suburban lifestyle, ...read more

    Mary - A Christmas Story Series

    While Mary has enjoyed high status throughout the centuries, she was the subject of gossip in her day. Mary’s scandal is this: she was an unwed pregnant teenager and all the tongues were wagging were in her small, conservative town of Nazareth.

    Just a few more days to Christmas… are you ready? We conclude a short Christmas series designed to make room in your heart to worship Jesus, entitled The Mothers of Jesus. For the last several weeks, we’ve been examining the four mothers of Jesus, the several women who served as Jesus’ distant ...read more

    Parables Of The Kingdom – The Third - The Mustard Seed - Part 2 Of 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 15, 2025
     | 242 views

    Now we look into how paganism was sanctioned in the church. It happened under Emperor Constantine who married church and State. Pergamum means married twice. This Part considers much that Constantine did in making the mustard tree a monstrosity.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE THIRD - THE MUSTARD SEED - PART 2 of 4 We continue from Part 1 and learn what the Parable of the Mustard Seed really means. The accepted meaning of the parable is not consistent with the scriptures as we began to see in the first Part. {{Matthew 13:31-32 He ...read more

    What Do We Do With The Weeds?"

    When the end comes, it will become clear who those people are whose faith is truly in Jesus, and it will become clear who those are who have been just playing a religious game.

    When I was a kid, weeding the garden was one of my least favorite activities. It was often hot out there and my back would hurt from bending over. Worst of all, I thought it was monotonous work, so often I did not pay real close attention to what I was doing. And, sure enough, I would sometimes ...read more

    This is part of a sermon series based on the Parables of Jesus. What's in it for me. This sermon is on the parable in Luke 15 - the prodigal son.

    What's In It for Me? - Salvation Some believe that if humankind is left to its own that the results will be positive and good. This was true once when God first made man but because of sin and it's destructive character there is no one who is righteous. When left to his own devices each of us ...read more

    what is the soil of your heart?

    I have this against you, Jesus said, you have left your first love. Last week we learned about the carnal Christian, the one who has gotten off track, but how can it happen. How does one fall out of love? How does one transfer their affections to another? Tonight lets look at the ...read more

    If you make an investment, would you not expect to make a greater return than what you put in? Why should God expect less from us?

    Turn tonight to Mark 4:20 (READ) And those are the ones whom seed was sown in the good soil; and they hear the word and accept it, and bear fruit, thirty, sixty and a hundred fold. If I were to give you each tonight $100, and I were then to tell you how you could turn that $100 into ...read more

    Jesus said that if we understood this parable we would understand all parables.

    THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING THE GOSPEL LEARNING AT THE FEET OF JESUS Mark 4:10. “And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.” There is an obvious difference between those who hear Jesus on a shallow or cursory level and those who hear from him ...read more

    I want to begin with the parable that I just read: The story of the Good Samaritan. I just want to point out some historical elements. This parable is only included in the book of Luke. Luke was a Gentile in the Jewish religion. See, Christians were not viewed as separate from the Jews until ...read more

    This is an invitation to trust in him. This is an exhortation to preach about him.

    “Clariza, have you seen my keys?” And then the search begins: under the couch, in the kitchen, in my office, in the laundry. We look like crazy because as always, I am running late. Then I hear those glorious words: “Here they are.” What a relief. This morning our Savior Jesus Christ is going to ...read more
