Mark 4:30-34

Mark 4:30-34

1. We learn that, like the grain of mustard seed, Christ's visible church was to be small and weak in its beginnings.
2. We learn that, like the mustard seed, the visible church, once planted, was to grow and greatly increase.

"Let us leave the parable with a resolution never to despise any movement or instrumentality in the church of Christ, because at first it was weak and small."

Question:

1. Do we despise the small and seemingly insignificant things? Do we put our hope in our great God who is pleased to take what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; the weak to shame the strong, and the low and despised to bring to nothing things that are?
