The weeds are the children of the evil one and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age and the harvesters are angels. Just as 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 who cause others to sin and all evildoers. He will throw them into the fiery furnace where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their father. Whoever has ears ought to hear the gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. I invite you to have a seat. So one of the things that keeps coming back, whenever someone's, I think when someone takes the Lord seriously, when someone takes their faith seriously, I think one of the big desires is I want to have more. Like I just want to, it's the same prayer that when the apostles went to Jesus and they said, Lord, increase our faith. It's that same thing. I think a lot of us, we would say, okay, when I come to the Lord, here we are in the middle of summer. Just like that sense of like, I just want, I want to be better, right? I want to have more faith. I want to, I want to love God better. …

Those evil people, those sinners, those terrible Democrats, Republicans, Independents… Whatever category you wanted to put right there, it exposed something about your heart.

… But the tares are the sons of the wicked one. The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age. And the reapers are the angels. Therefore, as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. He's saying this is how the world ends, OK? The Son of Man will send out his angels. They will gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, all those who practice lawlessness, all those basically who do whatever they want to do, not what God has said to do, right? To say, who are you to tell me how to live, right? And he will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth, and the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. And God, I pray we would have ears to hear. You speaking through your word to change our lives. …
