accusers? Did no man condemn you?  She said no man, my Lord. Then Jesus
                   said neither do I condemn you. Go to your home. Do not sin again.



                                                    Solomon’s Porch



                   Jesus was walking with his apostles in Solomon’s porch.  Then the Jews
                   surrounded him and said to him how long do you vex our soul with uncertainty? If
                   you are the Christ, tell us openly. Jesus answered saying, I have told you. You
                   do not believe. The works which I do in the name of my Father testify of me. You
                   do not believe. You are not of my sheep, just as I told you. Some of the
                   Pharisees asked Jesus when the kingdom of God would come. He answered
                   saying, the kingdom of God does not come by observation. Neither will they say
                   it is here or it is there! The kingdom of God is within you.


                                                 Vine Yard Evil Laborer


                   He began to speak to them in parables. There was a man who was a
                   householder and he planted a vine yard. He fenced it all around; he dug in it a
                   wine press and built a tower in it. Then he leased it to laborers and went away on
                   a long journey. In due season, he sent his servant to the laborers to receive
                   some of the fruits of the vine yard. The Laborers seized his servant and beat him
                   then sent him away empty. He sent to them another servant. They stoned him
                   wounding him and sent him away in disgrace. He sent another of his servants but
                   they beat him also and treated him shamefully and threw him outside. He sent
                   many other servants some of them they beat some were stoned and others were
                   killed. Then the owner of the vineyard said what shall I do? I have a very beloved
                   Son I will send him last of all. He said when they see him they might feel
                   ashamed before my son? When the laborers saw, him they reasoned among
                   themselves saying this is the heir. Let us kill him and the inheritances will ours.
                   They seized him and took him out of the vine yard and killed him. What then will
                   the owner of the vine yard do to those laborers? He will come and destroy them
                   severely. Then give his vine yard to other laborers who will give him fruits in their
                   season. When the High Priests, Jewish Elders and scribes heard it they said to
                   him this will never happen. Jesus looked at them and said have you never read
                   that which is written in the scripture. The stone which the builders rejected the
                   same became the corner stone. Whoever falls on that stone will be broken and
                   on whomever it falls on it will shatter him. This is from the Lord God and it is a
                   marvel in our eyes? Therefore, I say to you that the kingdom of God will be given
                   to a people who bear fruit. When the high priests, Elders, Pharisees and scribes
                   heard his parables, they understood that he was speaking against them. They
                   wanted to arrest him that very hour, but they were afraid of the people, because
