Parable of the tenants
Matthew 21:33-
Spoke around Passion Week
Landowner – God
Vineyard – Israel
Wicked vinedressers – religious leaders
Servants – prophets of Old Testament
Tenants – religious leaders
Son – Jesus
Landowner put wall around vineyard for protection – God provided protection. Put winepress – labor was made easy for them. Built watchtower – able to see anything coming against us from afar off. With can see stumbling blocks and anything else that may come against us, not caught by surprise.
1. God prepared all for us
2. Sometimes we still don’t respond as we should
3. There is an awful judgment
What do we do with Jesus?
