Matthew 13:47 - 13:52
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses two parables from Matthew 13 that pertain to the end of the age. The parable of the wheat and tares explains that at the end of the age, the Son of Man will send angels to gather all those who practice lawlessness and cast them into the furnace of fire. The other parable, the parable of the dragnet, explains that the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea that gathers every kind of fish, and in the same way, the angels will gather all those who offend and cast them into the furnace of fire. Gregg explains that there is not simply two kinds of Christians, but rather true disciples of Jesus and those who merely identify as followers without truly following Him.
