The Parable Of The Leaven - Part 2

Now last week… we spent a considerable amount of time… talking about this parable. And if you will remember…last week we placed our focus… on the "Bread that was baked." And we began talking about… what that bread represents. Do ya'll remember that?! We said that this blessed bread…was supposed to be something made to satisfy the heart…the mind of God! And when Jesus is talking to these Jews about "three measures of flour"…immediately…they would go to Abraham… when he entertained guests from heaven! They would go back to the grain offering… in the Old Testament… and they would've understood what the bread represented! And what did we say it represented? We said… "the bread"… represents the church! It represents fellowship with God! It represents… communion with God! Now…this morning…we're gonna move our focus a little bit. There is "the bread that's baked" But there's also… "the leaven that's latent". There's leaven… hidden in the bread! How did it get there? Well…this sneaky housewife comes into the kitchen… and the bible says… that she hides leaven in the three measures of meal!
