Disorderly members can wreck a church, but a firm and loving response by other members can save them and the church.

After relating terrible events that must happen before Christ’s coming, this text leaves believers with a simple message - Stand Firm!

The Thessalonian Christians show us what it looks like to live out God’s grace under persecution.

Although not exactly a parable, the judgment scene that concluded Jesus' public teaching in Matthew brings together important themes of his parables of the kingdom.

The Parable of the Banquet illustrates the various responses to the generous invitation of the King.

Two parables directed against the religious leaders indicated why they would lose their management of the kingdom, and why others would take their place.

The early church produced several creeds that continue to exercise great influence over what Christians believe about Jesus Christ to this day. (Here is an accompanying presentation.)

To be ready for Jesus' coming, we need to be doing what he has already told us to do.

Although we work for the growth of the kingdom, it grows mysteriously in ways that we cannot understand or control.
