In the parable of The Ten Minas the king will return. While he is gone, he gives his servants work to do. What will he fine when he returns?
Parabolic – The Ten Virgins
In Matthew 25 Jesus tells three parables to explain some of the details he gave in Matthew 24 about the end of the world. In the parable of The Ten Virgins he encourages us to wait and be ready for his coming.
Parabolic – The Lost Son
Heard of the Lost Son? Some have called it the crown jewel of Jesus’ parables. As we continue our series on Jesus’ divine stories you should know that the Sunday this is being offered is Last Judgement Sunday. I did this because there are so many people who are fearful of the Last Day.
Parabolic – The Two Brothers
When God asks for obedience he wants it right away, not tomorrow. The parable of the Two Sons is an illustration of what the spiritual landscape was in Jesus’ day. The common people, sinners, had fallen away from God. When John the Baptist called them to repentance, they listened. The Jewish leaders said all the right things, but they refused to repent. God’s call to repentance is just as real and urgent today as it was two thousand years ago.
Parabolic – The Workers In The Vineyard
The last shall be first and the first shall be last. That cryptic phrase accurately describes how rewards are given out in the kingdom of heave. This Sunday we look at the parable of the Workers in the Vineyard to see how God rewards us at the end of our lives.
Parabolic – The Pearl of Great Price
Is there anything more valuable than the gospel? Jesus shared the parables of the Hidden Treasure and the Pear of Great Price just to explore that idea. What would you be willing to give up for the sake of the gospel? Everything?
