The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard -Matthew 20:1-16

The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard -Matthew 20:1-16 New International Version (NIV) After reading the story , I find that God doesnt classify as 1st and last . We also looked at Jesus’ parable of workers in the vineyard (Matt. 20:1-16). The earlier the hire, the more labor they were able to give the vineyard owner (vv.2-7), but those hired later discovered they had equal value in the owner’s eyes and would be rewarded equally (vv.8-16). The vineyard owner chose to be gracious to them all. No matter our past or present, God longs to show us His grace and bring us into relationship with Him.
