Podcasts about wheat and tares

#bible #Biblia #Jesus #JesusChrist #WheatAndTares #GoodFruit In this discussion, Ric and Mary explore the difference between wheat and tares as described in Matthew 13:24-30. They reflect on how to maintain a heavenly perspective in our everyday lives and how to discern whether we are like wheat or tares. Being born again enables us to see the distinction between our relationship with the world and our relationship with our Creator. Our hope is to bear good fruit for Christ.

In the Parable of the Wheat and Tares, Jesus teaches that both good and evil will exist together until the final judgment. The sermon reminds believers that good seed produces good fruit, evil seed produces evil fruit, and God alone will judge rightly in His timing. Christians are called to trust God, remain patient, and continue faithfully following Him until His Kingdom is fully revealed.

What do you do when the world around you feels messy, broken, and out of control? In this week's message, guest speaker David White walks us through one of Jesus's most vivid parables — the Parable of the Weeds and the Wheat from Matthew 13 — and unpacks why the kingdom of heaven doesn't always look the way we expect it to.Drawing from Jesus's own explanation of the parable, David explores the tension between good and evil growing side by side in the world, and why God's patience in the face of that tension is not permission — it's mercy. Along the way, he challenges the very human impulse to fix everything around us, and redirects our attention to the one thing we actually can control: what's growing in us.From the surprising agricultural detail that made Jesus's parable land for his original audience, to what the workers in the story reveal about our deep need for control, David unpacks what it looks like to trust the Farmer when the field feels overwhelming. He closes with a practical challenge around three things we actually can control — who we follow, what we feed on, and what we focus on — and invites listeners to reorient toward the kingdom rather than the weeds.Big Idea: You can't always control what's growing around you, but you can control what's growing in you.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Many of us have been hurt by sins, wrongs, the evil of others. In a world where there is freedom for us to choose to hurt others, we will get hurt. So what is God going to do about this? If He loves us, shouldn't He just go ahead and get rid of all evil?  The answers lie in a parable told by Jesus, "the parable of the wheat and the tares" (also known as "the parable of the wheat and the weeds"). In this story we will see how the owner of a field (i.e., Jesus) had his field sabotaged by an enemy (i.e., the devil), who sowed bad seed among the owner's good. Thus the owner had a choice to make - get rid of the tares immediately or let both the wheat and the tares (i.e., the good and bad people) grow together. Fortunately for us, Jesus explains which He chose, why He chose it, and what will ultimately happen to those who follow Satan instead of God.Scriptures covered: Titus 2:11-14, Matthew 13:24-30, Revelation 21:1-8.To see David Hicks on YouTube, click here.

We absolutely will spend our entire lifetimes in this world rubbing shoulders with unbelievers.

Ever wondered why there are so many imposters and hypocrites in churches? What should we do about it? In this message, Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares insights both this topic from a story that Jesus told.  Why did Jesus use parables?Matthew 13:12-13a Jesus didn't use parables to make everything clear, but to make everyone think. Jesus' parables reveal people's hearts—they penetrate some hearts and they harden others. With His use of parables, Jesus isn't hiding truth FROM people; He's hiding it FOR people, in hopes that it draws them closer to Him. Questions to ask when reading a parable:1. Who does each character represent? 2. What is the surprise twist in the story? 3. What are the kingdom lessons behind each story?  Today's parable: The Wheat and the WeedsMatthew 13:24-30  The weeds in the story, are also called tares, but they're known today as darnel weed, often called false wheat. Jesus' explanationMatthew 13:36-43  3 Questions to ask:Who does each character represent?Jesus – FarmerThe field – the worldWheat – people who follow JesusWeeds – the people who don't follow JesusThe farmer's enemy – the devilThe harvest – the end of the worldThe harvesters – the angels What is the twist in the story?The farmer waited until harvest to sort the wheat from the weeds.28-30 God is playing the long game. God's justice is coming eventually, but God's mercy is here currently. What are the kingdom lessons in the story?1. It is often difficult to distinguish between believers and unbelievers, especially at the earliest stages of growth. We must be slow to declare which is which.Jude 1:22-23 NLT God is long-suffering towards those you find insufferable.This is why we don't throw people away when they make a mistake, when they struggle with sin, or when they're taking longer to "get it" than we think they should.Our father is a farmer and growing people takes time. 2. God is not calling you to be a holy weed eater.We have not been instructed to go in guns blazing, clearing out and cleaning up all we see wrong in someone's life. Why? Because sometimes, you look like a weed too.Galatians 6:1 NIV Christians shouldn't be passive against evil, but we're called to be patient with people.John 3:17 NLT If God didn't send Jesus into the world to judge the world, I doubt He sent you to judge it. 3. God's judgement is real, but not yet revealed.Romans 2:5 Some of you are too excited about the prospect of people going to hell. Others of you aren't concerned enough about people going to hell.Be angry at injustice, but trust the wisdom of the Lord of the harvest and share God's grace with others while we can.   Are you learning the lessons found in the parable of the wheat and the weeds?

In this episode, Jesse Schwamb and Tony Arsenal of the Reformed Brotherhood delve into the parable of the wheat and tares, offering an insightful discussion on the challenges of discerning true believers from false ones. They explore the theological implications of this parable, emphasizing the responsibility of Christians to recognize the true Church while acknowledging that individual believers do not hold the authority to make these determinations independently. This conversation underscores the importance of understanding the roles and responsibilities within the Church, particularly regarding church discipline and the power of the keys. The hosts discuss the historical and eschatological elements of the Church's authority, drawing connections to the biblical narrative of Adam's role in the Garden of Eden. They highlight the parallels between the parable's servants and the responsibility of guarding the faith, suggesting that vigilance and discernment are crucial for the Church's health and integrity. By examining the significance of ecclesiastical authority, Jesse and Tony provide a nuanced perspective on the visible and invisible Church and the implications of these distinctions for both individual believers and church leaders. Throughout the episode, the Reformed Brotherhood emphasizes the need for collective discernment within the Church, stressing that proper church discipline, including excommunication, has real consequences for believers. They advocate for a deeper understanding of ecclesiastical authority and the marks of the true Church to ensure that Christians are aligned with a congregation that faithfully adheres to biblical principles. Key Points: The parable of the wheat and tares illustrates the challenge of discerning true believers within the Church. Individual Christians do not have the authority to determine who is a true believer; this is the role of the Church's leaders. The Church's authority is rooted in biblical principles, with the power of the keys being a significant theological concept. Questions for Reflection: How does the parable of the wheat and tares inform our understanding of who belongs to the true Church? What are the implications of church discipline and excommunication for individual believers? How can Christians discern the marks of the true Church in today's diverse ecclesiastical landscape?
