PARABLE OF WEEDS
Ever wonder why there is both good
and evil allowed in this world? Jesus
told a parable that touched on this
subject — it is called the Parable of the
Weeds.
It runs like this: Consider the world
as if it were a field where a Farmer has
sown good seed. But then an enemy
came and sowed weeds among the
wheat. So, when the wheat came up,
so did the weeds. What to do? Instead
of destroying the weeds, and thereby
risking the wheat, the Farmer tells his
reapers to wait and let both wheat and
weeds grow together until the harvest.
At the harvest he will instruct the
reapers to gather up the wheat, but to
discard the weeds. So do not despair
when evil seems to thrive in this world
– there is a reckoning still to come, and
justice will be done.
