About this Episode

Preacher: Jeremiah Fyffe
Scripture: Mark 3:20–35

James Edwards
The center of the sandwich in vv. 10–13 is the key to understanding the whole, that only in fellowship with Jesus do parables disclose the meaning of the kingdom of God.

ANOTHER VERY LARGE CROWD

THE PARABLE

  • v4 - Seed that fell along the path.
  • v5-6 - Seed on rocky ground
  • v7 - Seed among thorns
  • v8 - Seed in good soil

THE PURPOSE OF THE PARABLES

THE MEANING OF THE PARABLE

  • The enemy is Satan
  • The enemy is tribulation and persecution
  • The enemy is the cares of the world
  • But … hear and accept and bear fruit

FOUR OBSERVATIONS

  • We are hearers of the Word.
  • We are sowers of the Word.
  • We should not be surprised by fruitlessness
  • We should not be surprised by fruitfulness
