Matthew 20

In Chapter 20 we see first the parable of the Workers in the Vineyard
Here is another example of the last will be first and the first will be last. When we read parables it is easy to read into them more than is there. Some see this as an example of people getting saved at the end of life also receiving heaven with people who have been saved their whole life. I don't think what this parable is about. It is more about those who are in a worst spot in life will be first in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Verse 17ff Jesus warns the disciples before going to his death and resurrection in Jerusalem...

Mother Zebedee requests honor for her sons James and John, but Jesus once again goes back to where authority is in the kingdom of Heaven. It is not with those who lord Authority but the authority is with the least in the kingdom of Heaven. Is that what it looks like in our church??? Always a good question to be asking...

Verse 29ff Jesus heals the blind men. in this scenario we see Jesus reaching out to the "least" while everyone else is telling them to be quiet.
