Parable of the Unrighteous Steward

The Gentiles were once without God, without hope and without a Messiah. After the Jews killed their Messiah, the table was turned. Israel is without God and without hope. That is the story of the Unrighteous Steward. He typifies Israel. In the end, the primary truth is found in verse 15 - ye are they which justify yourselves. Christendom and the Jews are joined at the hip in justification by their will and works.
