In this message, Pastor David Bertram preaches a powerful lesson from Matthew 13:24–44, revealing the true Treasure of the Kingdom of God. Jesus teaches four kingdom parables—the Wheat and the Tares, the Mustard Seed, the Leaven, and the Treasure in the Field—to show how the Kingdom begins small, grows, transforms, and ultimately demands everything from those who see its value.
This sermon addresses:
• What the Kingdom of Heaven really is
• Why Jesus introduced a spiritual Kingdom, not a political one
• The danger of the enemy sowing tares among the wheat
• The reality of Hell, judgment, mercy, and righteousness
• Why Satan attacks the “seed stage” of your walk with God
• The hidden treasure of salvation through repentance, water baptism in Jesus’ name, and receiving the Holy Ghost
• How true disciples gladly sacrifice everything because they see the Treasure
If you want deep biblical teaching that confronts modern misconceptions, explains Apostolic doctrine, and calls believers to wholehearted surrender, this message will strengthen your walk with God.
Scripture focus:
Matthew 13:24–44, 2 Peter 3:9, John 3:5, Acts 2:38, Philippians 3:7–8.
