Parables: Mustard Seed

Parables: Mustard Seed
How unfortunate it would be if we thought that the gospel only applies to the issues of our hearts Parables are given to help reveal things that are mysteries, or not known before. Jesus’ parables preach that Jesus is King of all. The church’s job is to serve the Kingdom! Our job as individuals is to serve the King and his kingdom and bring His righteousness, peace, and joy over the whole earth.

Even though the mustard seed seems small and insignificant, it grows to become large and very significant. Just like proclaiming the gospel to a neighbor seems like small change in a world of problems. But a neighbor becomes a neighborhood. A neighborhood becomes a city. A city becomes a state. A state becomes a nation. And a nation impacted by and led by King Jesus, becomes the world.
