Friday, February 26, 2021:  " The Parable of the Budding Trees".   Good morning and welcome to another edition of Food for Thought.  For today's devotional, Pastor Clint Lange takes a closer look at Luke 21 in context with the Parable of the Budding Trees near the end of the chapter in Luke 21: 29-36.  There are two very specific events mentioned prophetically by Jesus, the destruction of the Jewish Temple and scattering of Israel in AD70  and the fulfillment of the time of the Gentiles at the second coming of Christ, for which we are still waiting.  The parable of the Budding Trees explains that signs will accompany these events and the readers of the words of Jesus should recognize the changing seasons.  Pastor  Clint also discusses how Prophecy focus is good when it encourages us to live life in obedience to God,  but if we are not careful can become to much of a dominating focus at the expense of pursuing other important Christian virtues in the here and now.
