The Fruitless Fig Tree
The weekly Sunday morning sermon delivered by Rev. James Wiles
Mark 11:12-14; 20-21
“On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry. And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. And he said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it.”
“As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots. And Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.””
The Lord’s desire
The Lord’s disappointment
The Lord’s declaration
The Lord’s demonstration
