Repent or Perish
Now there were some
present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood
Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. Jesus answered them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than
all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, no, but, unless you
repent, you will all perish in the same way. Or those eighteen, on whom the
tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse
offenders than all the men who dwell in Jerusalem? I tell you, no, but, unless you
repent, you will all perish in the same way."
He spoke this parable.
"A certain man had a fig tree planted in his
vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none. He said to the vine dresser,
'Behold, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree,
and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?' He answered, 'Lord, leave it
alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it. If it bears fruit, fine; but if
not, after that, you can cut it down.'"
Luke 13:1-9
