Two Pointed Parables (Part 2)
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In "Two Pointed Parables (Part 2)", Steve Gregg discusses two parables in the Bible. The first parable is about builders rejecting the cornerstone, leading to the entire building not following the blueprint. The second parable is about Israel being God's field, vineyard and building, with the question being raised about whether the church has put the death sentence on this institution. Gregg emphasizes the importance of truth in the church and warns against the hypocrisy of using religious language, while members lack faith and practice in their daily lives.
