God's Expectation Series

Contributed by Rule Digal on Aug 11, 2008

The focal point of this parable is God’s expectation of His people, Israel or Christians. God is the owner of the vineyard who inspects and expects the fig tree –His people to bear fruit.

Incapable, Yet Faithful Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 28, 2017

While the sower must put forth sufficient effort in preparing the soil and sowing the seed, he has no control over the harvest. He can faithfully cultivate the ground, keeping the field free of weeds ...read more
