Sermon Thought

Lk. 13:20-21 And again He said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

 

God’s Kingdom is growing. Many people are coming into His Kingdom every day by faith in Jesus Christ. The sad thing is that many more people are missing God’s glorious Kingdom because they refuse to trust in Jesus. The world is trying to stop God’s Kingdom by ending Christian faith. But that will never happen because just like leaven in dough cannot be stopped, God’s Kingdom cannot be stopped. God’s saving message of Jesus Christ will continue until Jesus returns for His own followers and His Kingdom is set up on earth forever. Just as leaven begins it’s work in one portion for the dough, every true believer is to have Kingdom effect on those around them until every person is touched by God’s Kingdom message. The question for Christians is not are you a part of the Kingdom of God but are you toughing people’s lives in a way that draws them to the Kingdom of God through Jesus Christ.
