While The Weeds Grow
Series: Parables: Stories From The Master
In “While the Weeds Grow,” Pastor Joshua Kennon preaches from Matthew 13:24–30, 36–43, where Jesus tells the Parable of the Wheat and the Weeds.
If Jesus is truly King, why does evil still seem to flourish? Why doesn’t God judge everything immediately? And how do we keep from taking God’s place by writing people off as hopeless?
This sermon explores the difference between biblical discernment and sinful condemnation, the purpose of God’s patience, the certainty of final judgment, and the hope of the Gospel. Jesus is the Judge who will one day make all things right—but He is also the Savior who took the judgment of sinners upon Himself at the cross and rose again.
The challenge is simple: Are you trying to do God’s judging instead of doing God’s work?
This week’s call: Choose one person you’ve been tempted to write off, and begin praying specifically for their repentance. Trust the King with the harvest.
