1. Parables of The Kingdom
Matthew Chapter 13
#2 - The Wheat and Weeds

2. The church in the world NOT the world in the church
The Wheat and Weeds
The Sower = Jesus
The Field = The world
The Seed = Believers
The Enemy = Satan
The church in the world NOT the world in the church

3. The Wheat and the Weeds Why leave believers among the weeds?
So we can impact the weeds for good
‘go into all the world and make disciples of all nations’ – Matt 28
2 Peter 3:9

4. The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent Peter 3:9

5. The Wheat and the Weeds Why leave believers among the weeds?
So we can impact the weeds for good
‘go into all the world and make disciples of all nations’ - Matt 28
2 Peter 3:9
To give us opportunity to change
 Why not pull up the weeds?
This is the time for rescue not judgement
The time for separation will come – and the Lord himself will be in charge
