judgment unexpected – v2

In the parables, in these stories

in these teachings from Jesus

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

being ever fruitful,

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.
