The Kingdom of God.
Mat 20:1-16……..“the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a householder which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vinyard. (2) and when he had agreed with the laboures for a penny a day, he sent them into his vinyard. (3) and he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, (4) and said unto them; go you also into the vinyard, and whatsoever is right I will give unto you, and they went their way. (5) And again he went out about the sixth hour and the ninth hour, and did likewise. (6) And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and said unto them , why stand ye here all day idle? (7) And they said ubto him, because no man has hired us, He said ubto them, Go you also into the vinyard; and whatsoever is right, you shall recieve. (8) So when evening had come , the lord of the vinyard said unto his steward, call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning with the last to the first. (9) and when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they recieved every man a penny. (10) But when the First came, they supposed that they should that they should have recieved more; and they likewise recieved ever man a penny. (11) And when they had recieved it, they murmured against the goodman of the house. (12) saying, these last have wrought but one hour, and you have made them equal unto us, which have born the burden and heat of the day. (13) but he answered one of them and said, Friend , i do you no harm , did you not agree with me for a penny? (14) Take what your is, and go your way: I will give unto this last even as unto you. (15) Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my own, is your eye evil, because i am good? (16) So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many are called , and few chosen.

To all……What are the main points this parable brings out., there are many.
Lets all get back to “descussing”, “the kingdom of God” , time is short , we are in the last hour, IMO.
We have all wasted enough time descussing useless things like, the “flat earth” stupidity. Satan and his ministers are hard at work trying to throw this site off, it’s main purpose.
We are called as servants of Christ to preach THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND HIS RIGHTIOUSNESS. Thats the commision now let’s get back to work.

To all……This parable, shows how the orginal apostles my have that opinion, of doing most of the work during the hard times of the work, they after all gave their very lives in the work of the kingdom, But what they missed was that just because the last hired worked tge least, they still would have been commited to the work just the same as the first ones hire were.
This parable also shows us that at the very end there was little time left, which i believe we are in that time period of the last hour, before the return of Jesus and the beginning of the kingdom of God on this earth.
Peace and love to you all……..gene
