Listen to another parable: there was a master
of the House, who carried his vineyard, planted a fence, dug in the ground,
built a tower and let it out to tenants, absented himself. When the time came, he sent his servants to
the vinedressers to fruition; grape growers, grasping retainers, a beating that killed
him and a stoning. Again
he sent other servants more than the former; and with them went the same way. Finally, he
sent to them his son, saying: to my son's will be ashamed. But the husbandmen saw the son, said among
themselves: this is the heir; come, let us kill him and take possession of his
inheritance. And,
grasping it, pulled him out of the vineyard and killed him.
So, when the Lord of the vineyard cometh,
what will he do to those vinedressers? They said to him: the villains ever betray an evil death,
vineyard will give other grape growers who will give him the fruits in their
seasons.
Jesus said to them: did you never read in the
Scriptures: the stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head
of the corner? This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes? Because I
tell you that the Kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to people,
fruits; And he
who falls on this stone will shatter, and whom he will drop the nut.
Matthew 21.33-44
Question: what is the vineyard of God? What
is the main purpose of God and His people? That would be if Israel carried out this purpose?
Answer:
The vineyard is a place of work to rescue the
perishing. This work is God himself and those who He worships and obeys is his
co-worker. Tai on Salvation altogether too deep to understand her completely.
But the Lord never does for their other work. Those who worked for him who
forgot it, inevitably will be banished, and their privilege to be the light of
peace will be taken away and given to others.
Thus, God's purpose is to save as many people
as possible, because he is "not advisable o someone who died." If
God's people do not have acted the way he did, he could become the true light
of the world and proliferated. The Jews do hipocrisy, creating lawlessness,
persecuted the prophets and killed their Messiah, saying: "his blood upon
us and upon our children", thereby doomed himself and his descendants in
exile, the humiliation and the Holocaust.
Conclusion: the goal is the salvation of the
people, and if they carried out this purpose, it would be a light to all
Nations, have gained the fame and prosperity.
Question: whether the person could realize
God's plan?
Answer:
Yes, man can and could embody God's plan in
life. Certainly not by itself. Jesus said, "Apart from me you can do
nothing." This means that every man by nature is sinful and weak. But if
he agrees to join their weak force with divine power, he can do what God
expects from him.
The way this is hard and cannot consist only
of uninterrupted victories. On the road any repeatedly falls off, but the Lord
is always there to help under-run and go on to the great goal-eternal salvation
and return to paradise.
Conclusion: everyone can fulfill God's plan
for him, if He will not resist.
Question: could the State of Israel embody
the character of Christ, and to convert other peoples?
Answer:
God created all conditions to ensure that
every Member of His people, a whole people, and later Of Israel, his nature.
But this did not materialize, and the reason for the Israelis. They missed his
opportunity.
God always fulfills its promises and
obligations, which is not true of the human age. To Israelis and were taken out
of Egypt,
to the promised land spiritually purify
and grow. But they went after other gods, which led to a retreat and both of
persecution. And yet the Lord has not forgotten the Israelis and continues to
do them a favor, as stated in the second commandment. So there was the State of
Israel.
Even today, the people of Israel and to
believe in the Messiah and become like Him. The thing is in their free choice
and rejection of stubborn.
Conclusion: only on the choice of the
Israelis depends on whether they will have the character of Christ and whether
a light for others.
Question: what is the atonement and what
relationship it has to God's people?
Answer:
God did not create sin but made its
appearance, because this was the condition for the free choice of the
individual. Before Lucifer rebelled and became the devil and Satan, Heaven, the
Council defined the plan of salvation and redemption.
ATONEMENT-Word, related to the notion of
"redemption". Not all forever, to comprehend this mystery. It applies
to all God's people, and each person individually. The greatest mercy of God to
the fallen, any serious disturbances crime he has not committed, expressed in
words: "fear not, for I have redeemed you".
The life of Christ as an example for all, and
Its Crest is the guarantee of forgiveness and who-birth of everyone who wish:
"Coming to me will drive Vaughn.
Conclusion: God hates the sin but loves the
sinner. That is why he paid dearly for his salvation. This is an expiatory
sacrifice.
Question: is it possible to for man and God's
people in General to live a sinless life?
Answer:
Everyone got from Adam and Eve inherited a
sinful nature. In this respect the whole moral law and not to sin he cannot.
Why the Bible calls for the observance of the commandments? Because that is not
in the status of the NII to man, strong to God. It's everyone who wish to give
the power to transform your character, though it will take a very long time,
and to achieve Holiness and heaven.
Example for us, Christ himself. He lived on
Earth, was like us, experienced hunger, thirst, physical pain, was exposed to
all the temptations. Nevertheless, he defeated sin and never sinned. This means
that we act-would, if only we will not resist transforming grace.
Despite the fact that all people violate
their obligations and stumble, and God is always faithful, he reveals to us the
indulgence. So the way to salvation - is open to all. Everyone can be cleansed
from sin and enter into a new world, which will no longer be anything unclean.
Conclusion: even though people cannot become
a Holy being, so it would make God. One need only ask.
Question: whether the salvation of God's
people Was Golgotha?
Answer:
God has predestined to sin and its
consequences, and foresaw it. And provided for the rescue plan. Calvary is its Center. Christ is so filled with love,
even for the sake of a perishing sinner agreed to ascend the calvary. He forecasted Judah too, and those who have It
pierced.
For what Jesus ventured into it, God It
magnified and glorified, as mentioned by Isaiah. One and the other are linked.
He came first to the Jews as those who
elected the one God and a crush on y-used Him. They rejected him, and now the
Lord nothing to go to the Gentiles. But it is also forgiving. And therefore not
closed its benefit is to give to those who yelled "crucify him!"
Conclusion: the sacrifice of Christ to all
those who took it. He is patient and waiting for everyone.
Question: how God was trying to teach his
people?
Answer:
Before the advent of Christ, many spoke on
behalf of God: Moses, Joshua, judges. Prophets, many of which were killed for
the truth and denouncing. The majority of the Jews became hypocrites and
demagogues, good only in their own eyes.
Jesus, having come, taught, said in the
Scriptures. Even Pilate acknowledged that he is the King of the Jews, and the
Jews refused.
If the opposition and disobedience is a
crucifix, then obedience is "resurrection and life". Jewish leaders
also deliberately chose the first retreat and death.
Conclusion: God's longsuffering sent his
followers to his people. Christ was the most important of all.
Question: is the prophecy of Daniel to the
Hebrews conditional or unconditional?
Answer:
The prophecy of Daniel should be
unconditional in sacrifice of Christ, as in saving the need of all the
descendants of Adam and Eve, without exception. However, in the case of the
Jews everything decides to select each of them, and all of them as a nation.
The Mission of Christ the SAME, Jews also
missed the opportunity to enlighten the world.
Breaking stones Stephen, they have shown that
they don't need a Messiah to come. Here already 2000 years they rejected it.
Nothing good is to the Jewish people. However, some of them believed, and for
the rest of the door is not yet closed.
Conclusion: the Jewish people is not elected,
but the rescue plan for each, as Jew and Gentile, not cancelled.
