Mark 11:27-13:37;
Luke 20:1- 21:36 Part One
Throughout Jesus ministry, Jesus taught us great things. He took the last few days that he knew he would be on earth, to teach the people one last time. He talked about many, many things. Read the passages posted above the picture.
The Parable of The Two Sons:
This parable signifies two different kinds of people. Some who prove better than they promise and others that promise better than they prove. This ended up being a rebuke out of their own mouths. This passage shows that those who knew not of John’s Baptism to be of God, were shamed by those who knew it. They owned it. We humans are like children to God. We being the children rebel against God. Only some are very likable in their disobedience than others. It is only then we are brought to repentance and become God’s servants, while the idealist grows hardened in pride.
Parable of the Tenants:
This parable is shows how most of Israel rejected Jesus. They reject that He is the son of God. They reject that he is their Messiah. They misunderstood Jesus purpose for coming down from Heaven. They openly rebelled against His plan of salvation. The Kingdom will be taken away from those that fail to remain faithful to Jesus. Instead it will be given to those who turn away from the wicked things of this world, the ungodly beliefs and behaviors of the world. It will be given to those who pursue the things of God and His ways.
There is so much more to these two parables. Take some time today and really read the scriptures. Pray that God will speak to you about what these verses and what they mean between you and your relationship with God.
Dear Heavenly Father,

In Jesus Name
Amen
