The Parable of the Net

 

The Parable of the Net


Matt 13:47-50 Again, the kingdom of Heaven is compared to a drag net thrown into the sea, and gathering together of every kind; which, when it was filled, drawing it up on the shore, and sitting down, they gathered the good into containers, and they threw out the rotten.


So it will be in the completion of the age: the angels will go out and will separate the evil from the midst of the righteous, and will throw them into the furnace of fire; there will be weeping and gnashing of the teeth.

Note: The Kingdom is compared to a net. There is good and bad fish in the net. Good fish are clean food and and the bad are unclean.

We are like the Jews were in Yeshua's time. They wanted the coming Kingdom when the fish are sorted. They didn't know they were bad fish and had to repent and keep the Covenant with the Father.

Keeping the Covenant is not works to be saved, no more than a spouse not committing adultery is works to get married, but because they are in a marriage covenant.

The sign of the Covenant is the Sabbath. God tested Israel with the manna to see if they would keep the other Commandments. Israel failed to keep the Covenant and was put under law.

Accepting Messiah is accepting the New Covenant. Yeshua said He is the Master of the Sabbath. The Jews added their rules of how to follow the Sabbath. Those rules, Messiah didn't follow, just His Fathers Commandments.

أخبار جيدة، الإنجيل؟ مرقس 1: 1-9 بدء إنجيل يسوع المسيح ابن الله كما هو مكتوب في الأنبياء: ها أنا أرسل أمام وجهك ملاكي الذي يهيء طريقك قدامك. الصارخ في البرية أعدوا طريق الرب اصنعوا سبله مستقيمة." مال. 3:1؛ هو. 40:3 جاء يوحنا يعمد في البرية ويعلن معمودية التوبة لمغفرة الخطايا. وكان يخرج إليه جميع كورة اليهودية وأهل أورشليم، ويعتمدون جميعهم على يده في نهر الأردن، معترفين بخطاياهم. وكان يوحنا يلبس وبر الإبل وعلى حقويه منطقة من جلد ويأكل جرادا وعسلا بريا. ونادى قائلاً: إن الذي يأتي بعدي هو أقوى مني، الذي لست أهلاً لأن أنحني لأحل سيور حذائه. أنا عمدتكم بالماء، وأما هو فسيعمدكم بالروح القدس. مرقس 1: 14-15 وبعدما أسلم يوحنا جاء يسوع إلى الجليل يكرز ببشارة ملكوت الله ويقول: قد كمل الوقت واقترب ملكوت الله. توبوا وآمنوا بالإنجيل. لوقا 20: 1-2 وفي أحد تلك الأيام، بينما هو يعلم الشعب ويبشر في الهيكل، جاء رؤساء الكهنة والكتبة والشيوخ وكلموه قائلين: أخبرنا بأي سلطان تفعل هذه الأشياء، أو من هو الذي أعطاك هذا السلطان؟ (لاوي أو ملكيصادق) عب 3: 12-4: 7 انظر...

The New Covenant

  The New Covenant    Jer 31:31-36 “Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah , not like The Covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My Covenant that they broke , though I was their husband, declares the LORD.    For this is the Covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the LORD: I will put my Torah within them, and I will write it on their hearts . And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.    And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ for they shall all know Me , from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”     Note:  John 14: 7-15    Thus says the LORD, who gives t...

Sign of the our Marriage Covenant

  Sign of the our Marriage Covenant Ex 31:12-18 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death . Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever : for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he reste...
