I <strong>AM</strong> : M. M. Ninan<br />
Unfruitful the wicked Hosea 10:1<br />
Worthlessness of its wood<br />
The wood of, fit only for burning<br />
Ezek 15:2-3 "Son of man, how is<br />
the wood of a vine better than<br />
that of a branch on any of the<br />
trees in the forest? Is wood ever<br />
taken from it to make anything<br />
useful? Do they make pegs from<br />
it to hang things on?<br />
Unfruitful life is a wasted life.<br />
8. LAWS RESPECTING VINEYARDS<br />
Not to be planted with different<br />
kinds of seed Deuteronomy 22:9<br />
The fruit of new vine should not<br />
be eaten by the owners till the<br />
fifth year Leviticus 19:25<br />
The fruit of new vine should not<br />
to be eaten for three years<br />
Leviticus 19:23<br />
The fruit of new vine is to be holy<br />
to the Lord in the fourth year<br />
Leviticus 19:24<br />
Strangers entering the vineyard<br />
are allowed to eat the fruit of vine<br />
freely, but they may not carry any<br />
away from the vineyard.<br />
Deuteronomy 23:24<br />
Each church should have its own<br />
theology. Do not try to mix them.<br />
This probably refers to the maturing<br />
period of new Christians. They may<br />
not be expected to teach. Just as the<br />
vine needs time to mature and bring<br />
fruit, every Christian needs to<br />
mature before they bring forth fruit.<br />
People may come into the church to<br />
feed themselves. But they may not<br />
take any food outside or any<br />
member out of the church. No<br />
church should take in another<br />
person from a different church, nor<br />
prompt to do so.<br />
