New Life Evangelical Lutheran Church is a member congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod (www.evangelicallutheransynod.org), in fellowship with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (www.wels.net). We accept the Bible as the inspired and inerrant Word of God and we submit to this Word as the only infallible authority of all matters of faith and life (2 Timothy 3:15-17). We accept and confess the symbolical books of the Evangelical Lutheran Church contained in the Book of Concord of 1580 as true statements of scriptural doctrine.

Lord, keep us faithful to Your Word! The Festival of the Lutheran Reformation of the Church emphasizes the true Church’s unfailing reliance on the Word of God and unflinching testimony to it in the face of persecution.

Our God patiently seeks fruits of faith.
The Lord came to His city and His temple to teach His people, but the leaders of Israel rose up against Him. During Holy Week, Sadducee and Pharisee put aside their differences to join in opposing this Man who threatened their worldview and their worldly positions. When they questioned His authority, Jesus responded with three parables meant to drive the leaders to self-‐evaluation and self-‐condemnation. The parable of the two sons, the tenants in the vineyard and the wedding banquet were addressed to these men who had been given the trust of spiritual leadership in Israel, but had failed. The stories speak of family ties, contractual obligation, and the favor of a royal invitation. Each should have led to a proper response, yet each parable showed that Israel’s leaders were refusing to give God the fruits of faith He patiently sought.
His enemies could answer Jesus’ questions correctly (Matthew 21:31, 41). They knew the parables were talking about them (21:45). They could even prophesy about His work (John 11:47-‐53). They would not, however, repent of their wickedness. In their unbelief they ratified every sin of their forefathers.
The three parables portend the day when the Father, the Owner, the King finally says, “Enough.” “Jerusalem is the home of the sons of God who will not render a son’s obedience, of workers in God’s vineyard who will not give God what is God’s, of the guests of God who will not come to God’s feast. The gulf between Jerusalem and the obedient Son of God who does the will of Him who sent Him is unbridgeable. Jerusalem is ripe for judgment” (Franzmann, Martin. Follow Me. 164).

The readings for the 20th Sunday after Pentecost (10/11) are:
Isaiah 5:1-7
Psalm 118:19-24
