Every once in a while there comes along an opportunity that is so fabulous that it is too good to pass up. However, such opportunities often require us to give up all our other options and put all our eggs in one basket. In Matthew 13:44-46, Jesus told two very short parables about the kingdom of heaven. In each parable, a man seized a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, giving up everything for the sake of gaining very much more.
The chief priest could not control his wicked sons, so God removed them all and raised up the one who could intercede between humans...
As Paul demonstrated in his trial before Governor Felix, Christians must testify about Christ with our words and with our lives.
Jesus has authority and power over all things and is bringing the powers of darkness down.
