bwe - Matthew:13:24-30

bwe@Matthew:13:24 @ Jesus told the people another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A man sowed good seed in his field.

bwe@Matthew:13:25 @ While people were sleeping, a bad man came and sowed weeds among the good seed. Then he went away.

bwe@Matthew:13:26 @ The good seed grew and the plants gave more seeds. Then the weeds grew too.

bwe@Matthew:13:27 @ The servants came and said to the man who owned the field, "Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How did the weeds get here?"

bwe@Matthew:13:28 @ He answered them, "A bad man has done this." They asked him, "Do you want us to go and pull up the weeds?"

bwe@Matthew:13:29 @ "No," said the man. "If you pull up the weeds, then the good plants will come up with them.

bwe@Matthew:13:30 @ Let them both grow together until the harvest time. When it is time to cut it, I will say to the men who cut it, Cut the weeds first. Tie them in bundles to be burned. Then put the grain into my storehouse."
