    Today I will be preaching on the parable of THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE RICH AND THE POOR found in the book of Luke.

    The gospel of Luke is the only book that carries this passage of scripture that some think is a parable. However, as I preach this from this PASSAGE OF SCRIPTURE, I need to mention that there are some preachers who refuse to preach this passage of scripture as a parable. Some say it is not a ...read more

    "watchful Living In A World Of Wheat And Tares" By Pastor Joseph Ondu

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Oct 7, 2024
     | 884 views

    This brings us to a crucial point: “while everyone was sleeping.” The enemy sowed the tares while the people were unaware. This suggests a lack of vigilance, a spiritual sleepiness. How often do we let our guard down?

    "Watchful Living in a World of Wheat and Tares" Scripture Reading: Matthew 13:24-30 “Jesus told them another parable: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. ...read more

    The parable of the sower is a picture of the seed of the Word of God. There is amazing potential in that seed, but we must provide the right kind of soil for it to grow.

    INTRODUCTION This is the 40th message in the series I call “Parables and Miracles.” The word “parable” means, “to throw alongside.” A parable may be an analogy or metaphor where Jesus lays down a natural truth and then throws a spiritual truth alongside it. But ...read more

    The parable of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16:19-31 teaches us the necessity of repentance to escape hell and go to heaven.

    Scripture Luke 16 deals primarily with the topic of possessions. The parable of the dishonest manager in the first part of the chapter deals with the abuse of possessions. And the account of the rich man and Lazarus in the second part of the chapter deals with the use of possessions. The rich man ...read more

    In Matthew Jesus frames up the Jesus Life by speaking about the Kingdom of God. Not a physical kingdom with walls, a castle, and a throne. It is a spiritual Kingdom. Jesus is our King.

    In the parable of the seed the sower only has to be the sower and the seed only has to be the seed, the responsibility lies with the soil.

    How’s Your Mud? When I was a teen we lived just outside of Saint John New Brunswick in Hammond River and when I needed to think or just find time alone I would go down to the river, find a big rock and just sit and enjoy being next to the water.
