(Lesson 2330)(04-28-18) Matthew 13:31-35
“Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof. Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened. All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.”
In today’s lesson, Jesus explained how that the kingdom of heaven (His church.) would grow from the small group that followed Him at that time, to where His followers would be recognized all over the whole world.
I don’t believe that there’s a place on earth where Christianity has not, in some form, been preached.~
