Kingdom-Like: Treasure – 1/31/16 – Jacob Addison
In Matthew 13, Jesus shares with his disciples what the Kingdom is like through different stories – each one with its own importance and meaning. These Kingdom parables, however, aren’t just for our information, they’re for our edification. They don’t only make statements, but ask questions. How do we respond to the word? Do we look different from the world? Do we trust that God can work through us? How valuable is the Gospel, and what do we do with it once we have known it? Jesus wanted his disciples and wants us to live a life that isn’t focused solely on the here and now. We are called to live a life that is different. A life that is “Kingdom-Like.”
