He put before them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven may be compared to someone
who sowed good seed in his field; but while everybody was asleep, an enemy came and
sowed weeds among the wheat, and then went away. So when the plants came up and bore
grain, then the weeds appeared as well. And the slaves of the householder came and said to
him, 'Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? Where, then, did these weeds come
from? He answered, 'An enemy has done this.' The slaves said to him, 'Then do you want us
to go and gather them?' But he replied, 'No; for in gathering the weeds you would uproot the
wheat along with them. Let both of them grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I
will tell the reapers, Collect the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather
the wheat into my barn.'"
Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples approached 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 are the children of the
kingdom; the weeds are the children 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
collected and burned up with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send
his angels, and they will collect out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all evildoers, and they
will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Let anyone with ears
listen!"
From the Book of Genesis 28:10-19a
Jacob left Beer-sheeba and went toward Haran. He came to a certain place and stayed there
for the night, because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones of the place, he put it under
his head and lay down in that place. And he dreamed that there was a ladder set up on the
earth, the top of it reaching to heaven; and the angels of God were ascending and descending
on it. And the Lord stood beside him and said, "I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father
and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and to your offspring; and your
offspring shall be like the dust of the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west and to the
east and to the north and to the south; and all the families of the earth shall be blessed in you
and in your offspring. Know that I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bing
you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you." Then
Jacob woke from his sleep and said, "Surely the Lord is in this place--and I did not know it!" An
he was afraid, and said, "How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of
God, and this is the gate of heaven." So Jacob rose early in the morning, and he took the stone
that he had put under his head and set it up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it. He called
that place Bethel;
From the Apostle Paul, Romans 8:12-25
So then, brothers and sisters, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh -- for
if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the
body, you will live. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. For you did not
receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received a spirit of adoption. When
we cry, "Abba! Father!" it is that very Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of
God, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ-- if, in fact, we suffer with
him so that we may also be glorified with him. I consider that the sufferings of this present time
are not worth comparing with the glory about to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with
eager longing for the reveling of the children of God; for the creation was subjected to futility, not
of its own will but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be
set free from its bondage to decay and will obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of
God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning in labor pains until now; and not only
the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly while we
wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies. For in hope we were saved. Now hope that is
seen is not hope. For who hopes for what is seen? But if we hope for what we do not see, we
wait for it with patience.
