Reading Calendar
From Leadership
Hey Rock Church! Did you know that our church has a Bible Reading Calendar where we are following along with the message series in daily readings as a body? You can find it HERE. Today's Reading is Matthew 21:33-46. There's even a link to take you to the Scriptures so you can stay current on what we are discussing during Sunday services!
The following is a great commentary from EnduringWord.com on Matthew 21:37-41 (NKJV) found HERE.
"They will respect my son…This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance: Jesus portrayed the madness of the chief priests and elders who plotted to kill the Father’s Son sent to the rebellious leaders of Israel. He will destroy those wicked men miserably: The message of this parable is clear enough. With this answer, the chief priests and elders understood what the wicked servants deserved. Truly, those who rebel against their master this way deserve judgment. And lease his vineyard to other vinedressers who will render to him the fruits in their seasons: The leaders of Israel were so corrupt that God was transferring leadership to others – specifically, to the apostles and then to the Jewish/Gentile church they would lead."
Oh Lord, teach us to respect Your Son and lead Your church well!
