This parable identifies another attitude of heart that has no place in the kingdom. This parable is known as "The Laborers In The Vineyard". The meaning of this parable has challenged many expositors, and explanations offered have been varied. While admittedly difficult, I believe the main point can be determined with a fair degree of certainty especially if we begin by taking into consideration the setting. Jesus had been approached by this man with a question concerning eternal life. In the course of their conversation, Jesus challenged the young man to give up all and follow Him. The man went away sorrowful, unable to accept the challenge. Jesus used this opportunity to teach how difficult it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. This causes the disciples to wonder who then could be saved? Jesus' response is that with God all things are possible.
