Isaiah 5: God's Vineyard
It was right for God to look for fruit from this vineyard, and it is right for the Lord to look for the same evidence of God’s grace in your life and mine today. #Isaiah5 #GodsVineyard #Abidein theVine
What Makes a Good Investment?
If we invest in a house, for example, we are apt to take care of it, make improvements, do repairs, paint it and shingle it. One day we may need to sell this house, and we expect to at least cover our original investment, and hopefully make something of a profit.
What about people as investments?
Or more to the point, how would you and I invest in people, and what…

The Parable of the Vineyard Workers (Matthew 20:1-16)
God controls the flow of mercy, not us.
The Workers in the Vineyard, by Rembrandt, 1637
“For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
“About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I…

Denominational Squabbling Or What This Gospel Isn't
Denominational Squabbling Or What This Gospel Isn’t
Denominational Made-up-Minds.
(Oh baby!)
Of all the things in The Church, perhaps this is the thing that scares me the most. This blind prejudice to, “We have always done it this way.” or “That is what my daddy believed, what my mama believed, and by golly, it’s what I believe!”
Well… okay then! Pardon my seeing this Glorious Truth through a slightly different lens than yours… and ummmm, is this…

The High Cost of Getting Your Own Way
The High Cost of Getting Your Own Way
1 Now Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard in Jezreel, beside the palace of Ahab king of Samaria. 2 And after this Ahab said to Naboth, “Give me your vineyard, that I may have it for a vegetable garden, because it is near my house, and I will give you a better vineyard for it; or, if it seems good to you, I will give you its value in money.” 3 But Naboth said to Ahab, “The Lord forbid that I…

Isaiah 27: And The Trumpet Shall Sound!
On That Day, all evil will be scoured from the universe by the cleansing action of God’s wrath, Isaiah 27:1.
On That Day, the whole world will be filled with the good fruit of God’s people, Isaiah 27:2.
#Isaiah27 #TheDay of the Lord
Leviathan Destroyed
At the end of Isaiah 26, the prophet urged everyone living in the Day of God’s Wrath to remain safely shut indoors, just as the ancient Hebrews remained in their homes, covered by the blood of the sacrificed lamb. The allusion is certain.
At midnight the Lord struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the…

Isaiah 5:1-7 - A Parable of the Vineyard
If the grapes are bad, the vine is bad.
I will sing for the one I love a song about his vineyard:My loved one had a vineyard on a fertile hillside.He dug it up and cleared it of stones and planted it with the choicest vines.He built a watchtower in it and cut out a winepress as well.Then he looked for a crop of good grapes, but it yielded only bad fruit.
“Now you dwellers in Jerusalem and people of Judah, judge…

Isaiah 5:1-7 – A Parable of the Vineyard
The bloodshed of the people was that they squeezed and bled the poor to death.
Let me sing for my loved one a love song for his vineyard.My loved one had a vineyard on a fertile hillside.He dug it, cleared away its stones, planted it with excellent vines, built a tower inside it, and dug out a wine vat in it.He expected it to grow good grapes— but it grew rotten grapes.So now, you who live in Jerusalem, you people of Judah, judge between me and my…

Hosea 6: The Broken-Hearted
Thursday, June 6, 2019
We frequently look at this prophecy written by one betrayed in the most intimate of ways. We will need this lesson because in our lives we will often find suffering at the hands of those we trust. This prophet speaks to us from the depths of sorrow in authenticity about his own intense suffering as a result of the infidelity of his wife, the…

Psalm 80: Prayer for a Persecuted People
Psalm 80: Prayer for a Persecuted People
Psalm 80: Prayer for a Persecuted People Friday, March 24, 2017 Restore us, O LORD of hosts; let your face shine upon us, and we will be saved. Persecution often follows us when we answer God’s call to act as God’s disciples, when we carry truth to people who do not want to see it. When we witness to an injustice, we want to rely on God’s wisdom, strengthen our resolve with Scripture – a…

Mark 12:18-27

Have you not read . . .?
Yesterday we explored the clash of movements into which Jesus steps and we can see why certain sectors of ancient society might oppose the teachings of Jesus. He strikes at the root of power and influence. If we all have access to the temple through our…
