Free Resource | Does the Bible Promote Tolerance or Intolerance?
One group says the Bible is a book about love, mercy, and kindness. They think of the story of the Good Samaritan and of Jesus telling us to turn the other cheek. So how could anyone think the Bible prevents a tolerant society? But for another group, the Bible is far from tolerant. There’s the conquest of Canaan. There’s Elijah killing Baal’s prophets by his own hand. And in the New Testament, Jesus talks often about hell. That’s not tolerant. What then can we say in answer to this question?

To such as these—the poor, the marginalized, the elderly, the infirm—belongs the kingdom of heaven. To be in the kingdom of God at all requires leaving behind your respectability, your sense of importance—and instead to be utterly dependent upon God.

How different would the history of the church across the globe have been if we had just paid more attention to what Jesus teaches here: aim to be a servant, not the master.

There is something in the human heart that is diminished by keeping but enlarged by giving. Our hand can only grasp on to life if we have released hold of the garbage of stuff. We cannot hold both together at the same time.

The view of children has changed throughout history. In Jesus' time, a distance was expected between children and adults. The disciples wanted to send the children away when they came to Jesus. The disciples were shocked at how Jesus responded to the children.

What's remarkable in today's story is the saving sufficiency of unimpressive faith. The man has faith…sort of; yet his boy is healed. Part of our journey as Christians is to put our trust in God and see who he is expand in our minds.

Today we look at the accounts of the transfiguration and the crucifixion. These stories aren't just a history of what happened, they are a message that can transform our lives today.

Peter rebukes Jesus in this passage, but then Jesus rebukes Peter, saying, "Get behind me, Satan." To only see that Jesus is the Christ, but to deny that the Christ must be crucified is a message of Satan.

Why was the blind man healed twice? Did Jesus not get it right the first time? What are we to learn from this? He is the Savior, not just a healer or a teacher. Jesus' miracles always point to spiritual lessons.

Money is such a sensitive topic to teach on and there can be confusion and a lack of clarity. Jesus doesn't call for a monastic life, nor is he anti-treasure. He just encourages us to store up our treasure in heaven.

Jesus feeding the crowds is a deliberate fulfillment of the messianic pattern in the Old Testament. God had fed his people in the wilderness with manna from heaven, and now Jesus gives people bread from heaven. The astute in the crowd that day may have realized the connection.
