If. the Jewish -people ware to be |
longer the kingdom of >God then, the
question aras?, who would be? The
answer of Christ was that bis own
church would Administer that king
dom. But. the; reply could come,
that church Was^too small and insig
nificant and unlonuentinl to administer
the great kingdom of God on earth;
the .kingdom Of - God on-earth must bel
something .very, vary great if It Is to,
control and .'fcenftfit society: In tjbc,
parables of this lesson our Lord re-'
plies to this objection.

1. Thn -mustard seed. This parable
recognized that Christ's cburch or.
kingdom was, at the. time the parable
on earth. ? But. Christ,,j?aw and de
clared that ,H would become the very
mightiest thing on eart?.?? greatest
among the herbs.- It whs and Is g

to note that this is true&nty ejf ltrt>?

else. There " is' Bomefflii.g* radically
wrong with' a'-ctmrch cr denomination
(that does not. grow. Can this alab be
said of S iSunday school and of a Sun

2. The parable c? *h?i.iinflvhn The
Ibarable or the mustard.seed deals with
the-outward growth .oft Um kingdom;
the parable of .'the lewen d?ils with

kingdom, small and rejected at first
