    Second in a series. The Parable of the Weeds helps us understand why there is evil in the midst of God's kingdom.

    Do you ever wonder why it’s often so hard to be a follower of Jesus? Perhaps like me, you once had some well meaning, but naïve person tell you that if you would just give your life to Jesus all your problems would go away, only to find out that is far from reality. I look around this room ...read more

    Proper 11 (A). Christ is patient and merciful to all. We are reassured of His victory over evil, now and in the world to come.

    “The Good Gardener” J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. Here it is, mid-July. The flowers, the crops, the vegetables, all are growing. But in the flower beds and the fields, the ...read more

    Christians have often been caught asleep when they should be awake. While on earth, Jesus stressed the importance of readiness, alertness, preparedness: “Work while it is day for the night comes when no man can work.” The enemy is watching you. Get busy.

    THE ENEMY KNOWS YOUR SCHEDULE MATTHEW 13:24 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, ...read more

    as with all of Jesus’ parables there is “a message behind the message,” and this parable is no different. In a word, it’s not only important what Jesus said, but what He did not say!

    Sermon Preached at Grace Community Church (EPC) Sun City Grand, Surprise, AZ Sunday, March 14, 2010 by the Reverend Cooper McWhirter In a Manner of Speaking: The Parable of “The Wheat and the Tares” Matthew 13:24-30; 36-43 There are several interesting facets to this particular ...read more

    We are not the final judge of the world-that is God’s job. We are to remain faithful to God’s word even during hard times, but if we do go astray, we have opportunities to mend our ways. We have the time and the grace we need to make changes.

    Those of you who have tended lawns and gardens know how important it is to keep weeds under control. You have to pull them out or use chemicals. It’s a lot of hard work, especially if you have to figure out what is a weed and what is a good flower or blade of grass. After all, sometimes the ...read more

    God answers to no authority, but he will deal gently with people until Judgment Day in order to set an example for his people. On the Day of Judgment, God will deal with the counterfeit Christians and those he judges to be evil and unrepentant at the same

    The historical development of the church of God would be one of humble beginnings. However, this parable contains more than this important truth. Hidden within it is a warning about the perversion of the church's method of growth and of satanic attacks up

    Opening illustration: A young teenager was walking to church in a blinding snowstorm. He was unable to get to his church, so he turned in to a little Methodist chapel. The storm was so severe that the preacher couldn’t make it in that night, so a layman stood up to throw something together ...read more

    The Two Meanings Of "End"

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 3, 2013
     | 2,266 views

    There are two meanings to "end," and as we reach the conclusion of a liturgical year, we must plan for both.

    One of the legends circulating that purports to prove the superiority of the new liturgical calendar and new lectionary is that in the Extraordinary Form, we hear Scripture readings that really belong to the beginning of the year, not the end. Let’s be honest. We aren’t talking about ...read more

    The idea of Heaven works its way into every culture like the way that yeast works its way through the whole dough. Even in Communist China the Gospel of Jesus is being told and shared and people are coming to faith.

    It’s About Heaven Matthew 13:31-32 Matthew 13:33 Luke 18:1-8 Back to the Parables of Jesus Today we will quickly look at 3 of them. Did you know that the parables are about the Kingdom of Heaven?
