c Call to the kingdom of God

 

The parable telling that the kingdom of God has come and that the Savior has appeared is a call to urge people into the kingdom of God, as it is. At the same time, it is pressing the decision of faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. First of all, it is a day of salvation, and it calls that there is no salvation except the day of today. This goes beyond the commandment that time is never back, or that "Time and tide wait for no man" It is a chance only now beyond such a philosophy and ethics, and there is a keen call that the chance will never come back again if this is removed.

/Parables such as the fruitless fig tree (Luke 13:5-9),
/The bad servants of the vineyard (Matthew 21: 33–41),
/The Rich and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31) ,

are all similar "calls".

This is also what I am doing now and teaches that it will determine the eternal destiny. Encourage them to bring their feelings back to the point of original sin and apply all of their power there. The kingdom of God is not something that will someday come to a vague future that is yet to come. In this present, now, it has already begun. Everyone must pour all of their efforts into the present. It is said that we will wake up now.

The parable story (Luke 12: 54-59, 17: 20-21) that everyone who was invited should look closely at the dinner party 's talks (Luke 14: 21-24) and the signs of the present.
All are of such meaning.
