    15 The Pharisees went and plotted to entrap [Jesus] in what he said. 16 So they sent their disciples to him,  along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are sincere, and teach the way of God in  accordance with truth, and show deference to no one, for you do not regard people with partiality. 17 Tell  us, then, what you think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?" 18 But Jesus, aware of their malice,  said, "Why are you putting me to the test, you hypocrites? 19 Show me the coin used for the tax." And they  brought him a denarius. 20 Then he said to them, "Whose head is this and whose title?" 21 They answered,  "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the  things that are God's." 22 When they heard this, they were amazed, and they left him and went away.

    1Once more Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying: 2 "The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a  king who gave a wedding banquet for his son. 3 He sent his slaves to call those who had been invited to  the wedding banquet, but they would not come. 4 Again he sent other slaves, saying, 'Tell those who have  been invited: Look, I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves have been slaughtered, and  everything is ready; come to the wedding banquet.' 5 But they made light of it and went away, one to his  farm, another to his business, 6 while the rest seized his slaves, mistreated them, and killed them. 7 The  king was enraged. He sent his troops, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city. 8 Then he said to  his slaves, 'The wedding is ready, but those invited were not worthy. 9 Go therefore into the main streets,  and invite everyone you find to the wedding banquet.' 10 Those slaves went out into the streets and  gathered all whom they found, both good and bad, so the wedding hall was filled with guests.  11 "But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing a  wedding robe, 12 and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding robe?' And he was  speechless. 13 Then the king said to the attendants, 'Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer  darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.' 14 For many are called, but few are  chosen.

    [Jesus said:] 33 "Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a fence  around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenants and went  away. 34 When the harvest time had come, he sent his slaves to the tenants to collect his produce. 35 But  the tenants seized his slaves and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. 36 Again he sent other  slaves, more than the first, and they treated them in the same way. 37 Then he sent his son to them,  saying, 'They will respect my son.' 38 But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, 'This is  the heir; come, let us kill him and get his inheritance.' 39 So they seized him, threw him out of the  vineyard, and killed him. 40 Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those  tenants?" 41 They said to him, "He will put those wretches to a miserable death and lease the vineyard to  other tenants who will give him the produce at the harvest time."  42 Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the scriptures:  'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;  this was the Lord's doing, and it is amazing in our eyes'?  43 "Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that  produces its fruits. 44 The one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, and it will crush anyone on  whom it falls."  45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they realized that he was speaking  about them. 46 They wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowds, because they regarded him as a  prophet.

    9-27-26 Matthew 3:13-4:2 by Pastor Nathan Pratt

    13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan, to be baptized by him. 14 John would have  prevented him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?" 15 But Jesus answered  him, "Let it be so now, for it is proper for us in this way to fulfill all righteousness." Then he consented.  16 And when Jesus had been baptized, just as he came up from the water, suddenly the heavens were  opened to him and he saw God's Spirit descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from  the heavens said, "This is my Son, the Beloved, with whom I am well pleased."  1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tested by the devil. 2 He fasted forty days  and forty nights, and afterward he was famished.

    On the last day of the festival, the great day, while Jesus was standing there, he cried out, "Let  anyone who is thirsty come to me, 38 and let the one who believes in me drink. As the scripture has said,  'Out of the believer's heart shall flow rivers of living water'.

    9-13-2026 - Matthew 12:38-40 by Pastor Nathan Pratt

    38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, "Teacher, we wish to see a sign from  you." 39 But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation asks for a sign, but no sign will be  given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. 40 For just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the  belly of the sea monster, so for three days and three nights the Son of Man will be in the heart of the  earth.

    9-9-2026 - John 3:1-16 by Pastor Beth Ann

    1Now there was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews. 2 He came to Jesus by night and  said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God, for no one can do these  signs that you do unless God is with that person." 3 Jesus answered him, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can  see the kingdom of God without being born from above." 4 Nicodemus said to him, "How can anyone be  born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into the mother's womb and be born?" 5 Jesus  answered, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and  Spirit. 6 What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not be astonished that  I said to you, 'You must be born from above.' 8 The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound  of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the  Spirit." 9 Nicodemus said to him, "How can these things be?" 10 Jesus answered him, "Are you the  teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?  11 "Very truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen, yet you do not  receive our testimony. 12 If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how can you  believe if I tell you about heavenly things? 13 No one has ascended into heaven except the one who  descended from heaven, the Son of Man. 14 And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so  must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.  16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not  perish but may have eternal life.

    8-30-2026 - Matthew 16:21-28 by Pastor Nathan Pratt

    21 From that time on, [after Peter confessed that Jesus was the Messiah,] Jesus began to show his  disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and undergo great suffering at the hands of the elders and chief  priests and scribes and be killed and on the third day be raised. 22 And Peter took him aside and began to  rebuke him, saying, "God forbid it, Lord! This must never happen to you." 23 But he turned and said to  Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me, for you are setting your mind not on divine  things but on human things."  24 Then Jesus told his disciples, "If any wish to come after me, let them deny themselves and take up  their cross and follow me. 25 For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life  for my sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit them if they gain the whole world but forfeit their life? Or  what will they give in return for their life?  27 "For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay  everyone for what has been done. 28 Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death  before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."
