The parable of the mustard seed and the leaven are not positive with regards to the church but speak of apostasy and false teachings becoming rampant.

Wrong. Try again.

lets deal with the leaven one first. You won't find one passage in Scripture where leaven is used as a positive thing.

So why translate it is as a positive element in this parable?
