He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Parable Of The Prodigal Son) # 8

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

Introduction: There is an old saying that we sometime quote as true, but we need to be careful quoting it, because it only contains part of the truth.

The quote is, "You can always tell a man by the company he keeps." Can you? Always? No, this is not always the truth. For example, Jesus kept company with many that society had rejected. (1) HE KEPT COMPANY WITH LEPERS Now in first-century Palestine, lepers were viewed with horror ...read more

Faith Seen In Action Series

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 25, 2022

The first son who "refused" to work, eventually did. The second son who "agreed" to work, later decided not to. Those expected to do great things for God can sometimes fail; whereas, those least expected can be used in a mighty way.

Have you ever felt God asking you to do some type of ministry that you believed was beyond your capabilities, and then you became reluctant? Did you say to yourself, “I’m never going to do that?” This is the way many people respond to the Lord’s call on their life. I’ve heard it said you should ...read more

The Prodigal's Father Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

Fathers need some encouragement. There are two things I see in the parable of the Prodigal that can be an encouragement to fathers, for these two things make it clear that fatherhood is hard, but that there is hope. The two things I see here are the intricacy and the intimacy of fatherhood

Burden For The Lost

Contributed by Samuel M on Feb 2, 2024

The elder son was in close proximity to the Father, but their hearts were far apart. The elder son's thinking differed from the father's thinking. Despite residing at Father's house, the elder brother did not share the Father's burden for the lost son.

And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. Luke 15:20 The prodigal son has returned to the Father, but there are many elder sons who still have not returned to the Father. ...read more
