In three parables that Jesus tells we find that there is great rejoicing in heaven when someone repents from their sin and turns towards God. We also see another group of people that thinks they are righteous and in no need of God's grace. These are the pharisees, and often our own hearts can become like theirs, thinking that we have earned the grace of God through our obedience rather than remembering that we are just as sinful as those we may pass judgment on.

Christ tells of the intense persecution that Israel will endure in the near future during the fall of Jerusalem. We look into how the fall of Jerusalem foreshadows the final days when Christ returns. We also are given encouragement in the knowledge that Christ's return will not be missed.

The nation of Israel rebel against God after hearing the report of the spies. Israel, having clear knowledge and first hand experience of who God is and His power still resist trusting in Him. We explore what it means to truly believe in God.
