Never Too Late

greatbaner960wSERIES: The Great Adventure: Listen! (Matthew)

TITLE:  Never Too Late

Scripture: Matthew 19:30-20:16

 

I.    THE PARABLE EXPRESSED

 

People will often doubt in the (fairness) and (justice) of God.

A principle we dare not forget: God Himself is the standard for (righteousness), and it is impossible for Him to be (unjust) as to lie. God is not (partial) to one person over another.

II.   THE PARABLE EXPLAINED    

 

Several difficulties present themselves in this story;

  1. It is an admittedly strange situation.
  2. The payment for the workers seems (unjust).

 

What is the interpretation of the parable?

It is a story intended to teach about the (grace of God) in salvation. God’s grace is (big enough) and (great enough) to extend a hand and offer eternal life.
