Luke:13:6-9
bwe@Luke:13:6 @ Then Jesus told this story: A man had a fruit tree on his farm. He came to look for fruit on it, but did not find any.
bwe@Luke:13:7 @ He said to the man who cared for the trees, "For three years I have come to look for fruit on this tree, but I have not found any. Cut it down. Why should it spoil my farmland?"
bwe@Luke:13:8 @ The man who cared for the trees answered, "Sir, let it stay one more year. I will dig around it and put good soil around it.
bwe@Luke:13:9 @ If it has fruit on it next year, that will be good. But if it has no fruit, you can have it cut down."
