Matthew 21:30-32

Living Bible

³⁰ Then the father told the youngest, ‘You go!’ and he said, ‘Yes, sir, I will.’ But he didn’t. ³¹ Which of the two was obeying his father?”

They replied, “The first, of course.”

Then Jesus explained his meaning: “Surely evil men and prostitutes will get into the Kingdom before you do. ³² For John the Baptist told you to repent and turn to God, and you wouldn’t, while very evil men and prostitutes did. And even when you saw this happening, you refused to repent, and so you couldn’t believe.
