    based on 46 ratings
     | 17,053 views

    The story provides a good window through which to view the other events of that day AND this day. It sheds some important light for anyone still trying to figure out what to do with Jesus. The story divides into three acts. Each is about an invitation

Thomas, Preaching Minister First Christian Church, Vandalia, MO “For many are invited but few are chosen!” That’s the punch line to Jesus’ parable.

    Why Jesus Healed The Sick

    Contributed by William Mouser on Feb 5, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,482 views

    The reason for Jesus’ miracles, is to validate his office, his mission, and his message. Today, miraculous healings are not badges of prophetic office, but are, instead, answers to prayer by those who have access to God through His Son Jesus Chr

    One theme that immediately jumps out at us today from the lessons – particularly the Old Testament Lesson from 2 Kings and the Gospel lesson from Mark – is the theme of healing. The Old Testament lesson, of course, might be called the ultimate miracle of healing, when Elisha raises the Shunnemite ...read more

    The Parable Of The Sower, The Seed And The Soils

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jul 28, 2005
    based on 127 ratings
     | 69,429 views

    Jesus explains the conditions of entry into God’s Kingdom - He is the Sower, the Seed is His Word and men and women are the Soil, either "Bad-Soil" - along the Path: responding NO; on the Rock: YES & NO; among Thorns: YES BUT; or "Good-Soil" : YES!

    The first recorded parable of Jesus is “The Parable of the Sower” (Matthew 13:1-23) but it’s equally the story of the seed and the soils. Earlier that day He’d had a confrontation with the Pharisees and religious lawyers about His claim to be the Son of Man and the great gulf that separated them ...read more

    Sometimes God doesn't make sense, sometimes he even makes us angry. But we have a God who loves us in the midst of our feelings of loss, or anger, or confusion.

    I Kings 19:9-21 “What are you doing here?” When it comes to things God might say to me, I can’t think of too many things I would like to hear less. When I finally get to heaven and look at the face of God and hear, “What are you doing here, Matt?” YIKES! ...read more

    John wants to know whether Jesus is the Messiah, because it doesn’t seem that the gospel he’s proclaiming is good news. But it is!

    I guess everyone has some idea what we mean when we talk about the gospel. But I wonder what your preferred translation of that word would be. Is Good News the correct translation do you think? Is the gospel necessarily good news? You may never have thought about that question, but if you do ...read more

Some of us may have fallen harder than others but the pain and the guilt remains the same. In the midst of our failure we often are tempted to give up and quit. Because Satan is ...read more
