The Net – Matthew 13:47-50

Steffan Morais – Youth Minister at EBBC brings a challenging message to us all with the question of following Jesus or believing in Jesus – Do we follow Jesus for what we can get or do we believe and trust in him regardless of whether God blesses us or not? Steffan brings an illuminating message as he explores this passage and what it is saying to us.

The Parable of the Net

47 “Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish.
48 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.
49 This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous
50 and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
