Pastor Paul explores the parable of the vineyard workers (Matthew 20), showing that salvation and forgiveness are gifts of God's grace rather than wages we earn. He ties this teaching to Jesus' call to discipleship and the coming passion.
The sermon also warns against attitudes that block understanding—self‑absorption, comparison, presumption, and judging others—and emphasizes that God's generous love is given equally: the last will be first.
