    Sermon for the 6th Sunday after Pentecost. How parables reveal the nature of God's kingdom.

    Matthew 13: 31 – 33, 44 – 52 / The Kingdom of Heaven Intro: I want you to pretend for just a moment that I am your own magic genie. But, I’m a very frugal genie and instead of giving you three wishes like most genies do, I’m only going to give you one wish. If you were ...read more

    The Parable Treasure And Pearl / I Surrender All

    What, then, do the parables teach? Church fathers such as Irenaeus and Augustine identified the treasure and the Pearl with Christ. The recent convert to Christianity says exactly the same thing: "I found Christ." Yes, it seems like we did find Christ.

    In his series of seven parables in Chapter 13, Matthew is quite elaborate ....... on the first two, providing an interpretation for each. The other five are shorter and more pointed in content. The parables of the hidden treasure and of the pearl consists of two sentences each. And in the ...read more

    Jesus gives 1) A vivid picture of judgment (Matthew 13:47–48), 2) A brief explanation of the principle of judgment (Matthew 13:49), and 3) A sobering warning about the peril of judgment (Matthew 13:50).

    Francis Chan’s new book, Erasing Hell, will be on the shelves from July 5 countering Rob Bell’s recent work, Love Wins. Bell acknowledges hell’s existence on earth but finds it difficult to believe that it is forever and that God can punish non-Christians for all eternity. Chan, on the other hand, ...read more

    This is my fourth sermon in the series and looks at how we are to be productive as we act as God's kingdom here.

    It seems strange to mix the sacred with the everyday, to describe the eternal with the ordinary, the infinite with the finite. And yet that is exactly what Jesus did when looking for a way to illustrate the Kingdom of Heaven, a treasure in a field, a merchant looking for a pearl the tiniest of ...read more

    When looking at the parables, we have to make sure we get the main points and don’t get lost in the details. Here is the main point.

    Passage: Matthew 13:47-58 Intro: I love summaries! 1. something really satisfying about gathering info and drawing conclusions. 2. we have been looking at the parables from Matthew for some weeks. 3. and we have found some repetition. 4. so here at the last of these parables in this ...read more

    The Reality Of Judgment

    What about all those whose crimes were never discovered and never received the punishment due them? There is a day of judgment coming. No one is going to get by with anything.

    The first is this: Free will makes hell necessary. Hell is God’s great compliment to the human race — by it he is saying, “If you do not wish to live with me, you don’t have to ” And if people do not wish to live with God, there must be a place where they can be ...read more

    Matthew 13:47-50 – POLITICAL CORRECTNESS AND HELL - Part 18 My starsign is Pisces (the FISH). I don't read the stars so relax, but it has always interested me that the sign of the fish was used by early Christians as a secret symbol.

    This message explores the nature of the Kingdom of heaven and of God and how Christians participate in bringing it "on earth as it is in heaven."

    We are learning the ways we "shrink Jesus down," from his robust loving nature. ? Last week we discovered his surprising agenda-a kingdom not a religious club. Transformed people of the king transforming their world. * The tension exists today between Jesus and religion. Religion establishes a ...read more

    God’s gift of membership in his kingdom is a treasure that’s worth giving up everything else to possess. His gift of his revealed word is a treasure that we can bring out of our storerooms over and over again to apply to each new situation we find ourselv

    Can you imagine this man? Perhaps he’s ploughing a field, just a paid worker, but he suddenly comes across a great treasure, just below the surface. He can’t believe his luck! But what’s he to do? He knows he can’t just take it. The field doesn’t belong to him. Perhaps it’s too big to dig up and ...read more

    The final question which it leaves with us is this: Are you really changed by your contact with Jesus Christ and are you still changing? Everyone in this congregation in one way or another has had a contact, a touch, with Jesus, has heard his voice.

    Opening illustration: A certain man went to Church one Sunday. He frowned when the organist missed a note during the opening hymn. He gave a mean stare at two teenagers talking to each other when the congregation was at prayer. During the Scripture readings, he kept looking impatiently at his ...read more
