Sermon May 18: The Wheat and the Weeds - Matthew 18:24-41 by Sunnybrook Christian Church
Jesus encourages us that there will be a final day of justice and judgment. But evil will continue in this world until then. So how do God's people respond in the meantime? Join us as we look at the parable of "The Wheat and the Weeds" from Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43.

PREACHING POINT: Patiently endure evil while trusting in God's sovereign timing, knowing that He will judge the wicked and vindicate the righteous at the end of this age.Main Text: Matthew 13:24–30; 36–43 (ESV) 24 He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, 25 but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. 26 So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also. 27 And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, ‘Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds?' 28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.' So the servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and gather them?' 29 But he said, ‘No, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn. 36 Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.” 37 He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, 39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. 40 Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, 42 and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

Where Are We Going?This Week's Growth GuideGod's Word is both central and critical to your spiritual growth. We invite you to utilize the Growth Guide during the week to further your application of the Truth from the message.•. Monday - Genesis 1-2•. Tuesday - Genesis 3-4•. Wednesday - Genesis 5-6•. Thursday - Genesis 7-8•. Friday - Genesis 9-11Home Church Questions 1. Have someone read the parable in Matt. 13:24-30. According to Matt. 13:36-43, what is this parable about?2. The lessons we learn from this parable help explain the Christian worldview. What is a worldview? Why is it important we understand what a worldview is?3. The first question that informs our worldview is: “how did we get here?” How does the Christian worldview explain how we got here and what are some examples of other worldviews that would answer this question differently? What difference should this make in our lives?4. The second question that informs our worldview is: “what is wrong?” In the parable, the enemy sows weeds in the good field. According to the Christian worldview, what is wrong? What is an example of a way you are experiencing the "weeds" of this broken world?5. The third question that informs our worldview is: “why are we here?” The Christian worldview says there is still meaning and purpose even though we live in a fallen world. What is the meaning/purpose of life according to the Christian worldview? What difference should this make in our lives?6. What are some reasons God allows us to remain in a fallen world with pain and suffering and weeds? How might your answer help you respond to the “weeds” you are experiencing right now?7. The fourth question that informs our worldview is: “where are we going?” According to this parable and the Christian worldview, what happens in the end? How is this different from other worldviews? What difference should this make in our lives?8. Who can you talk with about these big questions in hopes of talking about the Gospel? Which of the four questions do you think you would be most likely to “lean into” as you are talking with someone? Why? Mission Highlight - Pray for the Unreached: The Pashtun in Pakistan The Pashtun population stands at 32.7 million, with Islam as the predominant religion and Northern Pashto as the primary language. Christians constitute less than 0.1% of the population. Both written and oral versions of the complete Bible are available, but no movements of the gospel have been reported. Approximately 654 workers are needed, at a ratio of 1 worker per 50,000 people. Focus prayer on sending families to share Jesus' love and forgiveness, scripture translations in Pashto dialects, and inspiring household leaders to embrace Jesus and disciple others, so that Pashtun families turn to Christ and foster faith-based movements within their clans.FinancesWeekly Budget 35,297Giving For 10/13 20,813Giving For 10/20 35,240 YTD Budget 564,754 Giving 497,823 OVER/(UNDER) (66,931) Fellowship 101We invite you to join us on Sunday, November 10, at 9:00 a.m. to learn more about Fellowship.

CURRENT SERMON SERIES: They accused Jesus of being a radical. His message was too subversive, his influence too dangerous, his ideas just too extreme. This radical must be stopped, they said, before he changes everything. They were right. Jesus really was a radical. But he wasn't a dangerous extremist. He was simply calling people back to the roots of their faith. The word radical comes from the Latin, radix, meaning roots. To be a radical isn't to wander off to the extreme edges, but to return to the roots or the source of one's beliefs. Jesus was a radical who believed that by returning to the source—to God—we could actually change the world. In this series, we'll explore some of Jesus' most radical parables that return us to our roots—back to the source—and offer us a blueprint for how to radically transform the world around us.
In this bonus episode, Pastor John plays a sermon preached at Concordia Seminary Saint Louis by professor Joel Biermann on the Parable of the Weeds.

Sermon by Christopher Atkins on June 25, 2023.
What does it mean to live in the Kingdom of God in the present hour? While Jesus announces that the Kingdom of God has indeed come, in the Parable of the Weeds (Matthew 13:24-30) and the Parable of the Net (Matthew 13:47-50) Jesus teaches us that the current realization, while complete, is tempered by the presence of evil in the world.
The Parable of the Weeds Matthew 13:36-43 Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.” He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear. Things we can look for to discern the “wheat” from the “weeds”:Trust each other, but don't be stupid! Trust, but verify.Be careful of “theological gymnasts”! It's great to have questions, but beware of those questions that are actually an attempt to justify sin.Gravitate towards humility and obedience. Simple. Authentic. Jesus. Prairiebible.org
What is God doing in the world? It is not too hard to look around at this world and wonder what God is doing. This can be especially troubling for Christians and their faith. The scriptures tell us that Jesus rose from the dead and took his rightful place at the Father's right hand, possessing […] The post In The Weeds (Matthew 13:24-43) appeared first on Biblical Truths from West Palm Beach church of Christ.
This episode focuses on the parable of the wheat and the weeds, found in Matthew 13:24-30 & 36-43. Together we will be discussing the evil that exists in the world and our role as Christians planted in the midst of it all.
