January 5 questions

Now that we have passed the Christmas celebration, we dive back into the 21st chapter of Matthew, starting with the parable of the two sons. Here are a few questions to jump start your brain from two weeks of hibernation:

1. 
   Which of the two sons talks a good game?
2. Which sone causes most trouble?
3. Which son needed more of God's grace to carry out his actions?
4. Which sone needed to go to confession?
5. Which son could have been a member of the den of thieves, and which son could have been welcome in the house of prayer?
6. To which son could the chief priests and elders be compared?
7. Which son was like the Israelites after they escaped through the Red Sea?
8. What is the function of John the Baptizer in this parable?
9. Were the IRS men and prostitutes more like the first son or the second son?

These questions plus some coffee will help us gaze into God's perfect Torah of freedom tomorrow morning.
