A Fishermen’s Net
Matthew 13:47–49
Jesus told a story. “One day,” he said,
“some fishermen took their boat out.”
“They threw their net into the water.
All kinds of fish swam in the lake.”
“When the fishermen returned to shore,
they dragged their net out of the water
and looked through their catch,” said Jesus.
“They kept all the good fish and tossed
out all the bad fish.” Jesus said, “The
fishermen’s net is like God’s kingdom.”
“Everyone wants to be part of his kingdom.
But the angels will come and separate the
godly people from the ungodly people.”
“The godly people will live in heaven
with me forever.”
