Christ is the HEAD OF THE CHURCH.
In concluding His parable, the Lord likens Himself to the 22-23 verses of the 118th Psalm, calling Himself the Rock, which the builders have rejected i.e. the leaders of the Jewish people, and Which became “the chief cornerstone” — the keystone of the grand building of the New Testament Church.
Parable on the Wicked Vinedressers.
(Mat. 21:33-46; Mark 12:1-12; Luke 20:9-19)
A certain landowner, meaning Father God, established a “vineyard,” which means the Church of the Old Testament. Having set a hedge around it, which the analysts interpret as being the law of Moses and all institutions in general, elected so as to safeguard God’s chosen people — Jews — from the heathen’s influence; dug a “winepress” in it, in which the juices were extracted and erected a “watchtower” for the guards, to guard the vineyard against robbers and wild animals. The Holy Fathers reasoned that the words “winepress” and “watchtower” meant altar and church. Having arranged everything for the comfort of the vinedressers,
the rest here...
St Udio , I embrace the early church.....no modernism.
Christ is the same yesterday,today and tomorrow.
People do change scripture to suit their own ideas but the WORD of God has not changed.
I did have a look at the site you put ......thanks
I guess TIME will reveal the truth.

''......Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen" (Mt. 20:1-16).
For the Jews, the first hour was equal to 6 a.m. today, and the eleventh hour to 5 p.m.
When the lord of the vineyard paid the laborers, he did not give more to those who worked from daybreak but paid the same amount to everyone. Those who had come earlier received their pay as they had agreed, and the latecomers received the same amount out of the lord's kindness.
In this parable the Lord teaches us that the grace of God and that eternal life are given to people not on the basis of a mathematical calculation of their works or the time that they have belonged to the Church, but out of God's grace.
The Laborers who received equal pay~

Hi letthe/
The First will be last and the last will be first quote that you posted has nothing to do with what you said....This is Jesus Christ talking about the JEWS who did NOT accept Him as the Messiah.
The SINNERS were the first to FOLLOW Christ the Lord, but His own accepted HIM NOT!
The last first and the first last....
What has your post have to do with the PROPHECY that I posted?

What exactly are you saying?
You give Scripture, and then you go on making up your own translation of Scripture?
