Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Luke 20:14-19
14 - “But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Let’s kill him, so the inheritance will be ours.’ 15 And they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do? 16 He will evict and make war with those tenants and give the vineyard to others.” When they heard this, knowing his meaning, they said, “Surely not!” 17 But looking directly at them he said, “What then is this that’s written? ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the main cornerstone’? (And building block?) 18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken, but when it falls on someone, it crushes them.” (Separating the wheat, the grain kernal, from the chaff. Truth - is the “iron rod”/the unable to be broken measuring rod.)
19 The scribes and the chief priests (leaders, authorities) sought to lay hands on him at that very hour. For they knew he had told this parable against them, but they feared the people. (And the parable was fulfilled in 70 CE. If God is denied/rejected, it’s a natural consequence that his shield against the adversary’s hate and rage will fade? They await resurrection into “aionion kolasin”/eonian korrection/age of correction, Mt.25:46.)

From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
~ Galatians 5:1-8 ~
1 - For freedom and liberty Christ has set us free! Stand firm therefore! And do not submit to a yoke of slavery. 2 Look: I, Paul, say to you, that if you accept circumcision (as a requirement to be in a relationship/communion and union with God who is Life) Christ will not profit you. (We cannot both earn and receive a GIFT.) 3 I testify again to every one who accepts circumcision that they are obligated to keep the whole law. (False teachers were insisting the “New Way” had to include the “Old Way” - the Old, and New, “covenants/agreements; first one needed a mediator/lawyer because two sides were agreeing; new way didn’t need one because it’s basically one sided”. Yet! We DO have to “ENTER his Rest”! Heb.4) 4 You are severed from Christ, if you want to be justified by the law. And you are fallen from grace. 5 For through the Spirit - by faith - we are eagerly waiting for the hope [elpis - expectation!] of righteousness. (And perfection! “We shall be like Him” 1Jn.3:2 but each one unique. Which God in Malachi 3:17 calls jewels.) 6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything. (Doesn’t work, was always meant as a guardian and tutor - keeping things together, not dissolute/cursed - until the maturity of Christ in us and we in him. Not outer effort to transformation, but true inner transformation authored and carried out by God.) But only by faith, working through love.
7 You were running well. Who hasss hindered you from obeying the truth? 8 This persuasion is not from he who calls you. [The letter to the Galatians is all about the New Covenant/Contract of God, which Paul called the New and Living Way - Heb.10:20, “opened for us by Jesus”.] (The adversary will use every extreme. Do not be disarmed of our sWord, but assemble and put on the full armor of God.)
