is in the vineyard
Trying to spoil the harvest

Matthew
13:24-25 - Another parable put
he forth
unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is
likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his
field: But while men slept, his enemy came and
sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
Matthew 20:1 - For
the kingdom of heaven is like
unto a man that is an householder, which went out
early in the morning to hire labourers into his
vineyard.
Matthew 21:33-41 -
Hear another parable: There
was a certain householder, which planted a
vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a
winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it
out
to husbandmen, and went into a far country: And
when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his
servants to the husbandmen, that they might
receive the fruits of it. And the husbandmen took
his servants, and beat one, and killed another,
and stoned another. Again, he sent other servants
more than the first: and they did unto them
likewise. But last of all he sent unto them his
son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when
the husbandmen saw the son, they said among
themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill
him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And
they
caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and
slew him. When the lord therefore of the vineyard
cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
They say unto him, He will miserably destroy
those
wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto
other husbandmen, which shall render him the
fruits
in their seasons.
John 10:10 -
The thief cometh not, but for to
steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come
that they might have life, and that they might
have it more abundantly.

They try to change
The thought of love and happiness
To lust and disgrace
Shame and disgrace
|
|
Thief is in the vineyard
Trying to spoil the harvest
But Jah is going to pluck them out
|
Matthew
13:30 - Let both grow together
until the
harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to
the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares,
and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather
the wheat into my barn.
|
With lightning and thunder right now
Jah is going to pluck them out with lightning and
yunder
|
Revelation
16:18 - And there were voices,
and
thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great
earthquake, such as was not since men were upon
the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

All their worship is pride
And vanity vanity vanity
They got no love in their heart
For humanity humanity humanity
All their worship is pride
And vanity vanity vanity
They got no space in their heart
For reality reality reality
If you can recall the colour
Of the red white and blue
It's the symbol of the barberman too
It goes on and on
To the policeman too
It moves on and on
To the soldier man too
Thief is in the vineyard |
