Bible Seeds: If we look at these four parables closely, we see that Jesus is trying to warn us, what to watch out for, in the church. Jesus' victory over death at the cross made Satan use another tactic to try to defeat Christians in the church. The old saying, "If you can't beat them, join them! Watch out for the 'weeds among the wheat' and the wolves in sheep's clothing.'

Bible Seeds: Over the 55 years I spent singing and playing keyboard in many clubs, restaurants and events, there are many songs that remain with me because they speak of the human emotions that evolve from time of trouble. One of these songs is You've Got A Friend. Whenever I performed this song, I could not help think of these lyrics as being sung to anybody but the Father, the Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.... my GOD.
Abraham was considered by God to be more than a worshiper. He was considered by God to be a friend!

Bible Seeds: When my wife died, she was buried in a family plot but we had already moved about two hour away in another county. We went to the cemetery a few times but it was really hard when we wanted to remember mom. We had four boys 13, 11, 9 and 5 years old. A friend of Mary's had gold leafed a short bust; a statue of a woman holding a baby close to her chest. We put it on a cabinet in the living room and we remembered mom on special days by decorating the bust with flowers on her birthday and Christmas decorations for the season. We reminded each other of memeories and funny things mom did. Things changed for the better because mom had a true resting place in our hearts at our home!

Bible Seeds: what I find so amazing about people's faith and scripture is that the people living with the early writings had more faith with less proof than the people living today. We have more evidence today, because of geological findings, that the cities, people and events that were written about in the bible and were considered doubtful, actually did exist! And a scripture from Jesus gives weight to this assumption when He asked in the book of Luke, Chapter 18, verse 8 . . . "when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the Earth?"

Bible Seeds: Let us not curse ourselves by taking the advice of Satan. For when we do that, we have abandoned our God and we are praying to wood and stone idols who only mock us in our stubbornness and our ignorance.

Bible Seeds:: In our lives today, we live with an un-ending bombardment of stress. How much stress do you think could be taken away from our lives if we really didn't have to worry about DEATH? Satan doesn't want you to stop worrying about death! It's the constant pressure that dis-orients your pursuit of happiness in this life.

Bible Seeds: I remember when the first "Star Wars" movie came out. But that was Chapter Four! Alot of sequels came out after that but people always wondered how it started. They finally had to make movies of how it got to Chapter Four. It's not so different with the Bible. Why start at Chapter four? It makes more sense the first time when you start at the beginning.

Bible Seeds: Do You See It Coming? The bad news is that regardless of the New Year, SIN is coming to full bloom and into the Tribulation. It will get worse before it gets better, according to the bible. The good news is that Jesus loves you and wants you to be raptured before the tribulation. He doesn't want to leave you here for God's punishment of those who won't turn away from their sins and turn back to God. It's a sad day when your Creator will not hear or act upon your cries for help. He will not strive with you anymore but will turn you over to the world and the devil and demons that exist here.

Bible Seeds: The best Christmas, Birthday, Hanukkah, or Easter present you can give your children is learning how to make the right decision during the early years. And you will have to show them by your actions that you believe those are the right decisions too.

Bible Seeds: Do you believe in God and believe in His Son Jesus and that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit is one God.. In the book of James 2:19 he says, If you believe that, you do well; the demons also believe, and tremble. So what is the difference between the 'knowledge of God and 'knowing God'? Listen to an answer on this perspective.
