What kind of person throws a temper tantrum because a fig tree doesn't have any figs on it?

The same person who is going to throw a temper tantrum when you are found not bearing fruit. Only this temper tantrum sends you to hell.

What kind of person throws a temper tantrum because a fig tree doesn't have any figs on it?
We're talking about symbolism here. The fig tree symbolized Israel. The lack of fruit symbolized the lack of fruit of the Holy Spirit. Israel(the fig tree) was in rebellion to the teachings of Christ. Anyone who doesn't produce fruit is worthless.
Reply:That would be God. As I recall, He dealt with it in the way He deals with most things that displease Him. He killed it!
Reply:I agree with Ichthyic.
Reply:Rather,what kind of being can curse said fig tree and cause it's immediate demise.



Try it sometime...say, with some weeds growing in the grass...good luck!
Reply:Sounds like my father. He's a ill-tempered nut.



Could also be Jesus too.
Reply:The Jesus type of person?
Reply:A diabetic on an island populated only by fig trees.
Reply:It was a lesson. A Christian who does not produce fruit is worthless. Scripture says "You will know them by their fruits". Fruits such as Mother Theresa's. I am not saying everybody has to be a Mother Theresa but, their love for Jesus must be that strong. I love St. Theres' , The Little Flower's, writings about her little way. She says to just do the best job at little things for the love of Jesus and this will be just as good.
Reply:A Lunatic.
Reply:A fig fanatic...
Reply:Not Jesus for he was in control of his faculties unlike you.
Reply:Any teen-ager. They will have a temper tantrum even if everything is going right.



%26lt;sigh%26gt; I hope I can make it through this last one.
