There was once a man and he had two sons.
And to the first son he said, "Go and work in the vineyard."
And the son said, "No."
But afterwards he thought better of it and he went.
Now the man said exactly the same thing to his second son, who said, "Certainly."
But he didn't go.
Now which of the two boys did his father's will?
And what is the meaning of this story?
That there are those who think they are righteous because they say "Yes" to God
but they do not do his will.
