TOPIC:DO NOT OPPOSE GOD

MESSAGE

How does this parable make you feel? Notice the people’s response in v.16b. We often feel disgusted by the evil that other people commit but hardly accept our error or sin. The earlier we change this attitude the better to avoid the anger of God. In this parable, Jesus presents God the Father as the owner of the vineyard, the Jewish leaders as the tenants, the prophets as the servants and Himself the son of the owner of the vineyard.

Imagine the reaction of the teachers of the law and chief priests in vs.19‐20! How do we respond when confronted with the truth about our lives? Do we repent or do we become angry and search for ways to attack the people God uses to correct us? The spies sought to trap Jesus through the question on payment of taxes to Caesar but Jesus, knowing their motive, was sensitive enough to answer them rightly (vs.21‐25).
