.....the parable of the barren fig tree.... men were as ready then as men are now to conclude that they
themselves are the favorites of heaven, and that the message of reproof is meant for another.

The warning sounds down along the line to us in this generation....you are outwardly a member of the church...and yet you are conscious of no living connection with the great heart of love.

The barren tree receives the rain and the sunshine and the gardener's care. But its unproductive boughs only darken the ground, so that fruit-bearing plants cannot flourish in its shadow. So God's gifts, lavished on you, convey no blessing to the world.

 The pitying Savior is saying concerning you, Spare it this year also, till I shall dig about it and dress it.

What could have been done more to My vineyard, Christ said, that I have not done in it?
 Isaiah 5:4
