Vineyard Groningen Sermons

This is the fourth and final session in a series on the Church As A Vineyard. We have talked about the picture of a vineyard running through the Bible as a symbol of God’s blessing and favor, and it’s frequent use by Jesus in teaching about nourishment and fruitfulness in our lives and pointing to a harvest of souls and restored lives to be brought in. Finally we look at how there should also come a time of enjoyment and celebration – the joy of wine. As vineyards are symbolic for a place of blessing and favor, wine is a Biblical symbol for joy. It’s connected to celebration and gladness and received out of God’s hand.
