Welcome to the Gospel Series- The Parables of Jesus: www.wordinspire.org
Parable: “The Net”
Reference: Matthew 13:47-51
Theme: Like the Parable of the “Wheat and the Weeds” we see a Clear Depiction of the End Times
Context: The Final Parable in this series of Jesus’ Teaching on the Word and the Kingdom of God
Matthew 13:47-51
“Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away. This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
