The Parable of the Talents

In this parable Jesus compares the opportunities given to each person with 16 years wages. Some will make the most of these opportunities and be rewarded double, while others will lose their opportunities because they do not know or understand Jesus at all.

Being Ready

Jesus continues with His lesson on preparation for the end. He emphasizes the importance of kindness and His views on generosity.

The Alabaster Box

Jewish leadership plots to kill Jesus and Mary anoints Jesus with oil for His burial. We are given this beautiful example of her extravagant worship that will be remembered for all time.

Jesus and the Son of Perdition

Judas sells information to the Jewish Leadership and chooses to betray Jesus when he takes the sop. The prophetic symbolism of the Passover feast is fulfilled through Christ.

The Second Coming

Jesus has given the disciples a timeline that answers their questions about the second coming. He clarifies that the day of the Lord is immediately after the tribulation when every eye will see Him coming in the clouds.

The Day and Hour

We learn that Jesus is the sign from Heaven that will mark the end of the age. The wise will understand and know the day of His coming because they are not in darkness. Jesus says “ that day” will be just as in the days of Noah and Lot who were removed immediately before wrath fell.

As In the Days of Noah

Christ tells us that the days of Noah will be replicated in the days just prior to Christ’s second coming. Join us as we explore the two reasons for the flood and what we should expect in the days ahead.

Lessons on the Resurrection

While the denarius coin bore the resemblance of Caesar, believers are to be the image bearers of Christ. We know that at the last trump we shall all be changed. Jesus challenges the Sadducee’s views of the resurrection. He brings to their attention the fact that God is the God of the Living and those who believe will never die.

Last Questions

Seeking to make Jesus look foolish, the Pharisees ask Him one last question. He in turn asks them what they think of the Christ and His relationship to David.
