GOD’S WORD IN GOD’S WORLD
Are we wasting our time?
John Warner
(Mark 4:1-9; 26-34; Proverbs 1:20-23; 2:1-10; Ezekiel 17:22-24)
Key idea: Despite ‘apparently unpromising start’ and ‘small beginnings’, through his proclaimed word, Jesus, the ‘Sower King’ is ‘secretly’ advancing God’s Kingdom to produce God’s intended harvest.
‘…a waste of time?’
1. Kingdom Growth described (4:1-9)
2. Kingdom Growth assured (4:26-32)
a. Kingdom Growth is inevitable & unstoppable (v.26- 29)
b. Kingdom Growth is assured & for all (v.30-32; Ezekiel 17:22-24)
…wasting our time?
