The Mustard Seed
How can the Kingdom of God be a mustard seed?

Well, hello again. This is Dave Scherrerrer, and you've found your way to Kingdom Offerings. This is the podcast place of 100 Full Ministries, and we are pounding our way through the kingdom parables. So grab your Bibles, your phone app, and turn with me to Mark chapter 4.
We're going to keep reading there yet today, and let's look at another one of Mark's kingdom parables. So the last time we were together, we looked at a parable that, frankly, actually doesn't fit the definition of a parable. Most parables have a moral to the story, and they use the story to paint a word picture of a truth or a theme that Jesus would have us understand about God and his kingdom. They help us understand the kingdom in a small way so that we can eventually understand the kingdom in a large way.

Our acts of kindness, done in the name of Jesus, with the purpose of serving and blessing others also serve to lay aside treasures in heaven that glorify and exalt our King. This constitutes the kingdom coming on earth as it is in heaven - we become the answer to the Lord’s prayer.
God's economy of spiritual profit, which He's interested in, is not based on anything that has a worldly value associated with it.
