Those Who Believe the Word Receive the Word Those Who Doubt are Denied

This sermon is an in-depth study of the Gospel according to Mark. In The Gospel of Mark, we see the truth that Jesus is the son of God as well as being the Son of Man. We will flow Jesus as he overcomes evil and defies the powers of Rome.

Those Who Believe the Word, Receive the Word; Those Who Doubt are Denied (Mark 4:10-20)

Today, Pastor Charlie continues his readings from the Gospel of Mark. We learn the meanings of parables and how last weeks parable applies to our lives. We pray you join us for this important sermon.

Mark 4:10-20 (ESV)

10 And when he was alone, those around him with the twelve asked him about the parables. 11 And he said to them, “To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is in parables, 12 so that “‘they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand, lest they should turn and be forgiven.’” 13 And he said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables? 14 The sower sows the word. 15 And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown: when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word that is sown in them. 16 And these are the ones sown on rocky ground: the ones who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy. 17 And they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away. 18 And others are the ones sown among thorns. They are those who hear the word, 19 but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful. 20 But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”
