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

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 8, 2025
     | 187 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

    Decision Time

    This is a revival message, getting the Church right with God. We are in the last days and it is time the Church starts being the Church. Too many churches are going through the motions. They have zero outreach in their own communities. Oh they give to foreign missions but do nothing at home.

    Joshua 24: Decision Time This is a message that everyone here tonight will make a decision. Though it may never be made public God will know your decision. He will know if you as an individual will serve him and if this church, as a whole, will serve him. The word serve is used 413 times ...read more

    Making His way toward the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus declared that He was the True Vine. Those abiding in Him would bear much fruit. Jesus took time to describe the significance of His position as the Vine and the great care afforded the branches.

    The True Vine John 15: 1-5 We have come to the last of the I Am statements recorded in John’s gospel. Along with the previous statement when Jesus declared He was the Way, the Truth, and the Life, these comments followed their intimate time within the Upper Room. Jesus and the disciples are at ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 21, 2024
     | 1,062 views

    What does the scripture teach about leaven? The Galatians, through disobedience had departed from Christ, and Paul has confidence they will return. We look at stumbling blocks and returning from sin. What is the offence of the cross?

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 5:7-11 MESSAGE 18 – DISOBEDIENCE; DIVISION; STUDY OF LEAVEN; STUMBLING BLOCKS We continue this vital study of Galatians so that our faith is secured in the realities of faith, and not pushed around by the whims of men and false teaches.

    Is there a difference between moral filth and evil which we need to get rid of?

    Let’s continue our worship of God by listening to His Words from James….

    Have You Had A Desert Experience?

    Contributed by Kelly Durant on Jun 4, 2016
     | 7,643 views

    So God’s Word from the beginning describes how his children literally have to move from one place to another, and often move into a desert place for some time for a purpose, and this begs this question, how does this relate to you and me in our life?

    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,351 views

    The leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees was in direct opposition to the unleavened "Bread of Life".

    Text: “Be careful,” Jesus said to them. “Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees” (Matthew 16:6) NIV. Another word used in the place of “yeast” is the word “leaven”. Yeast is used in baking and causes the dough to rise or “puff up”. Yeast is really a living organism ...read more

    It's called the Last Supper, but that’s not really true. Jesus looked forward to a time in the future when He would be alive, and He would celebrate a feast in the Kingdom of God. This will be a future time of reunion, refreshment, and rejoicing.

    INTRODUCTION Easter is five weeks from today. Over the next few weeks, we’re going to walk with Jesus through 94 hours of events that changed the course of our world. The 94-hour period started when Jesus sat down with His disciples to eat the Passover Meal. It ended on Easter Sunday morning ...read more
