Stories of the Kingdom

Stories of the Kingdom

As Jesus continued to teach the crowds using parables, he began to teach them what God’s Kingdom was like. He tells them of evil farmers planting weeds in a good farmer’s field, teaching them about God’s goodness, God’s people, and evil planted by Satan. He taught them about the value of God’s Kingdom as more precious than the most valuable treasure of the finest pearl. And He taught them about God’s justice and how those who are unrighteous will be tossed aside like rotten fish at the end of the age.

Matthew 13:22
In our last episode, we heard the parable of the sower, an illustration of how different hearts receive and respond to the Word of God. Jesus described four types of soil, from the hard, unreceptive ground to the good, healthy soil that produces an abundant crop. Today we’ll hear more about the Kingdom of God as Jesus continues to teach in parables to show his followers the glories of His eternal Kingdom.
