There are hidden truths in the Bible that cannot be known by human wisdom.

Now in the 13th chapter of Matthew are seven parables and Jesus calls these parables the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.

When you study these seven parables, these seven mysteries of the Gospel of the Kingdom

of heaven, you're going to say,

Hallelujah, praise God, everything is exactly precisely what God said that it would

be and it will engender great faith in your heart and in your life.

Thanks for joining us for love worth finding as we begin another profound message from

pastor and author Adrian Rogers.

Jesus was the master teacher and he taught in parables,

earthly stories with heavenly meaning. In part one of today's program we began

studying the parable of the sower. Now in this

parable the sower is Jesus the son of man who sows seed which is the word of

God in people's hearts. The soil represents the hearts of men and women. Some receive it, while others don't.

Does this mean the gospel has failed or does the problem lie in the soil?

If you have your Bible, turn out to Matthew chapter 13

as Adrian Rogers begins part two of

mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.

Now, there are three basic things in this parable.

There is the seed, the sower, and the soil.

And we're going to find out what all of this means,

and really then we're going to ask ourselves this question,

has the gospel failed?
