The Matthew Series 31. Hidden treasure

Matthew 13:44-53 New International Version (NIV) The Parables of the Hidden Treasure and the Pearl 44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. 45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 46 When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. The Parable of the Net 47 “Once again, the k

Jacob’s Journals of Grace 7. The Breaking Point

Genesis 32: 22 - 32 We have come to the crucial moment of Jacob’s entire life. Up until now, Jacob has certainly lived up to his name—taking every advantage he can find to get ahead in life. Jacob is simply taking care of business the best way he can. Sometimes his ambition gets ahead of his wisdom and he does some unethical things. All that is about to change. When the sun goes down, his name is Jacob. When the sun comes up again, his name is Israel. After that he would walk

The Matthew Series 30. Starting Small

Matthew 13:31-35 New International Version (NIV) The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast 31 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. 32 Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.” 33 He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman t

Jacob’s Journals of Grace 6. Jacob’s Boxing Match

Genesis 29 - 31 In the NE United States, codfish are not only delectable, they are also a very big commercial enterprise. A vast industry has grown up around catching, preparing and shipping codfish to every part of the country. But the great demand for codfish posed a problem to the shippers. At first they froze the codfish before shipping, but freezing took away much of the flavour. Then they tried shipping the codfish alive in salt water, but that didn’t work. Finally, so

The Matthew Series 29. Wheat and Weeds

Last week we started with, as Barry said, a series of parables that Jesus began to tell to those crowds who were following him around. And this series of parables has a single theme, and that theme – once you start looking into it, is tremendously exciting. It’s the theme of the kingdom. As I was doing my Bible reading through the gospels last year, I saw this topic come up again and again and again and I decided to look more into it. I wrote down all the verses that speak ab

Jacob’s Journals of Grace 5. Hard Times in Haran

Genesis 29 “Everything that goes around, comes around.” We talk about the chickens coming home to roost and the skeletons rattling out of the cupboard. The Bible has much to say about retribution - “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” 2 famous Bible verses speak about retribution: "Be sure your sin will find your out.” (Numbers 32: 23) “Be not deceived; God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap.” Galatians 6:7 Jacob has been sowing for a long, lon
