judgment unexpected

in the parables, in the stories
almost never seeing judgment
Christ forgives the sinner
Christ only showed judgment
overturning the tables
and with the fig tree
something important
in the unexpected action
the harsh treatment
the tree forever dead

we must not be sleeping
sitting around quiet
we must be active
bearing good fruit
not like the barren fig tree
a foretaste of judgment
for Christ is hungry
looking for the good fruit
those who are worthy
who will be gather to the feast
