Wheat And Weeds

Introduction: Jesus spoke many parables while He came to live in our world. He spoke in parables as a fulfillment of scriptures and so that the people may have an understanding of the mysteries of the kingdom of God (Matt. 13: 24–25) One of the parables of the kingdom that Jesus told was the parable of Wheat and Weeds. In this parable, a man sowed good seed in his field. But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the good seed. Both the wheat and the weeds grew up together and when the servants of the farmer saw it, they asked him whether to pull the weeds. The man told them to leave the wheat and the weeds until the time of harvest at which time the weeds will be removed and burned in the fire.
