The judge separated the first man from the second after hearing their life story. The first man always helped everyone he saw. He clothed the naked, fed the hungry, gave drink to the thirsty, and gave shelter to the homeless. The second man though, was the complete opposite. The second man was selfish, he only wanted to benefit himself instead of helping others even when they needed it most, he still kept everything to himself. After hearing this, the judge separated the two men and said to the first man, "Go and continue to be a model citizen." To the second man the judge said, "You will be sent to prison for your actions. There you will suffer the consequences to your wrong doings."]]> 2023-03-23 12:56:24 UTC https://padlet.com/michellenowak3/va93mvgiurphx87n/wish/2528788789 The Parable of the Failing Student -Emily, Mitchell https://padlet.com/michellenowak3/va93mvgiurphx87n/wish/2528788926 The theology teacher had 100 students who all did good in her class, except for one who was failing.

They all tried to find ways to earn as much income and grow their companies as possible. People's businesses had become too small for all their money so they wanted to tear them down and build bigger buildings. The people had enough money stored up for many years so they wanted to rest, drink, eat, and be merry. But God stopped them and said, "Eventually you're going to die, money isn't forever. Get a good use out of it and give to those who may need it more than you." A man responded to him and said, "I have earned this money and I deserve it for myself." God said back to him, "You sir, have the most money among all these people, your life is going to end tonight and your money will have no worth to you anymore."

There was a man who had 3 sons. After they graduated high school, the father sent them all to college, he paid for the eldest to go to an ivy league college, the second went to a state college, and the youngest had to go to a community college. Once they were done with college, the two eldest sons went straight into working in the field they majored in however the son was lazy and struggled to find work in his field. One evening after the 2 oldest sons had been working for a while, the father held a dinner to ask his sons about their progress in life. The oldest gave the father what he paid for his college plus finishing off paying his mortgage, as well as gifting him a car. The second son, who had gone to a state college, also paid his father back for his education.  Finally, the youngest son came to his dad and had nothing to show for his education. His dad asked him why he has not done anything with the education he paid for. All the son said in return was that he could not find work and so he chose to work in a retail job. His father was so disappointed in him for having nothing to show nor give back. His father told him how he is no longer counts his youngest as his son.

They left him on the side of the road half dead. A Bishop walked by and saw him and did nothing. Then, a priest came down on the other side and saw him and also did nothing. An outcast came by and at first sight he was moved with compassion. He approached this man and gave care to him. Then, he took the man to the hospital and before he left he offered to pay the bill. Which one of these three was the neighbor of the robbers victim? It was the outcast that treated him with mercy. Go and do likewise. ]]> 2023-03-23 13:03:47 UTC https://padlet.com/michellenowak3/va93mvgiurphx87n/wish/2528801601 Parable of God's People - Christian and Allie https://padlet.com/michellenowak3/va93mvgiurphx87n/wish/2528803561 God created life and he scattered people onto the face of the earth. Some were placed in bad environments, some are to travel, some were placed in good environments. As the people went along with their life's, temptations came. Slowly taking people farther from God. The people in the bad environments fell into the temptation. The people that traveled had no roots and they were unable to find a home. The people in good environments were able to turn away the temptation and grow closer to God, spreading God's word to whoever willing to hear.]]> 2023-03-23 13:05:06 UTC https://padlet.com/michellenowak3/va93mvgiurphx87n/wish/2528803561
