    Why did the farmer in this parable plant the mustard seed? Jesus doesn’t stress the harvest from this tree... only the fact that birds come and settle in its branches. Why?

    OPEN: There’s a story about a student from MIT who spent an entire summer going to the Harvard football field every day wearing a black and white striped shirt walking up and down the field for ten or fifteen minutes throwing birdseed and blowing a whistle. Then he would walk off the field. At ...read more

    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Parable Of The Wheat And Tares) # 2

     | 2,954 views

    Again, I would like to remind you that parables were one of the favorite tools the Lord used in teaching spiritual truths.

    The Lord would take something physical that they all were familiar with, and use it to teach them a valuable spiritual lesson. This method of teaching is referred to as parables. And the Bible said that He taught them many parables. For example, in our scripture today, He used the parable of “The ...read more

    This is a fascinating parable the Lord used in teaching something He wanted men to know about the kingdom of heaven.

    Many of the things we hear about the kingdom of heaven today are not the truth. For example, many ministers today, if they do not come out and preach it, they imply that if you live a good moral life and attend church frequently, when you die you will go to heaven. But the fact is, the Bible ...read more

    Many ministers use poems, illustrations and humor to get across what they are wanting to teach. But a favorite tool of the Lord was parable

    He used them frequently! The Bible says He taught them many parables. WHY DID THE LORD TEACH IN PARABLES? Notice, the Scripture explains the Scripture.

    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
