The prostitutes are ahead of you

The prostitutes are ahead of you


My Sunday Scripture 2008.9.28


Jesus said to the chief priests and the elders,
"What do you think of this? A man had
two sons. He went to the first and said to
him: "Son, today go and work in my
vineyard." And the son answered: " I
don't want to." But later he thought better
of it and went. Then the father went to
the second and gave him the same
command. The son replied: "I will
go, sir," but he did not go.

"Which of the two did what the father
wanted?" They answered, "The first."
And Jesus said to them, "Truly, I say
to you: the publicans and prostitutes
are ahead of you on the way to the
kingdom of heaven. For John came
to show you the way of goodness but
you did not believe him, yet the
publicans and the prostitutes did.
You were witnesses of this, but you
neither repented nor believed him.

Matthew 21: 28-32

My reading notes:

The point is, there are two kinds of
decisions or perceiving abilities.

People only do things as they
perceive truly in their mind. If they
do not perceive it , they will not
do it. The prostitutes and publicans
did perceive better than some of the
learned people.

So the important thing is to see into
the real inner meaning of everything.
If you don't see it, you will not do
it, even sometimes people will easily
promise to do things they don't really
wanted to do.
