Matthew 13:38-43 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

³⁸The field is the world, and the good seed represents the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,

³⁹and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.

          40As the weeds are collected and burned in the fire, so will it be at the end of the age.
          41The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will weed out of His kingdom every cause of sin and all who practice lawlessness.
          42And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
          43Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
