    In this sermon I want to begin with this parable that I just read to you called the Grood Samaritan.

    We need to look at some historical events before we get deeper into this parable. This parable is only included in the book of Luke. There is a reason for that. Why? Luke was a Gentile in the Jewish religion. Matthew and Mark, and John were Jews, and they did not include this parable? ...read more

    In a parable of vineyard workers, Christ shows that all who receive from Him, and all that is received from Him, is totally gift. It is not earned. As Christians we rejoice and are thankful that we are in His vineyard, and that His continues to call others to His vineyard to labor with us.
