“Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. 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. This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
“Have you understood all these things?” Jesus asked.
“Yes,” they replied.
He said to them, “Therefore every teacher of the law who has become a disciple in the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.” Matthew 13:47-52
The word from God today is to examine your storeroom and seek out the unsearchable riches of Christ.
This parable speaks to the essence of life with or without Christ.
God is like a purveyor who spreads or promotes an idea or view.
He offers the gift of salvation to all. Some except the gift and others reject it.
The Spirit of God will not strive with a person who has a spirit of rebellion. At some point, He will move on to others leaving you to face the consequences of your actions.
The judgment of God is over every human being. This is about your life today and your final destination with God.
We are approaching the end of the age and there will be a time when God determines whether you will live with Him or face an eternal hell.
Several years ago, I was taken by the Holy Spirit to see the destination of those that reject Christ. It was an ugly picture of pain and torture. You do not want to be there. Ever!
We are facing the global judgment of God today. The virus is just the beginning and more is coming.
God has strongly impressed upon me during the day and night hours that now is the time to awaken and become dead to sin and alive to God in Christ.
If you are a believer, you live in the house of God. The revelation of Christ in your life is an evolving story of coming to know Him.
There are both the old treasures of the basic fundamentals of Christ and new insights everyday about the kingdom of God.
The truth of Christ is a process of learning and you will never completely understand Jesus until you meet Him face to face.
Getting right with Christ should be your priority. He lives so you can live!
