<ul><li> Email: hpaulsilas@hotmail.com </li><li> https://apostolicinternational.com/ </li><li> Statement of beliefs: https://apostolicinternational.com/statement-of-beliefs </li><li> The sermon: https://apostolicinternational.com/sermons/LESSONS_FROM_THE_OLIVE_TREE.pdf </li><li> The sermon is based on the parable of Jotham from Judges 9:8-15, focusing on the significance of the olive tree as a symbol of humility, faithfulness, and service to God and humanity. The olive tree was chosen by the other trees to be their king but declined because it recognized its purpose in honoring God and serving others through its fatness (abundance) and the oil it produced. The sermon highlights the biblical references and symbolism associated with the olive tree, including its role in the Ark of Noah, the Temple in Israel, and the Garden of Gethsemane. The sermon encourages believers to emulate the olive tree's characteristics of knowing the source of their blessings, remaining faithful, and prioritizing service to God and others over worldly ambitions.</li></ul>
