We are glad that you have come to worship with us today. As we go through Matthew 13, we are learning from Christ as he teaches the Kingdom Parables. The first two that we worked through were longer, and each one came with an explanation given to the disciples about what it meant. This week, we will move through 4 short parables where the meaning is not explicitly stated in Scripture. So what are we to understand about the kingdom from a mustard seed and a some leaven? How does a buried treasure and a costly pearl help us rightly see the value of the coming kingdom? If you have questions that we can answer, or if there is a way that we can be praying for you more specifically, please reach out and let us know.
He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.”
Matthew 13:31-34
He told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened.”
All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed, he said nothing to them without a parable.
