Hi <<First Name>>
Why does God allow evil? Why does He not stop evil people from doing evil things?
In the parables of Matthew 13, Jesus described the ways in which a Christian should respond to evil in our own hearts and in the world around us, and it is extremely important and helpful for us to understand these truths.
In the parable of the Sower He tells us how to deal with evil ideas, actions and motivations in our own hearts. He says we should uproot them nd replace them with the word of God, which will produce a great harvest in our lives.
In the parable of the Wheat and Tares, He tells us how to understand and relate to evil people around us; without judgment.
In the parable of the Dragnet, He tells us to continue to reach out to those around us, and not to worry if some bad and good "fish" all come in at the same time. We should never stop reaching out.
Watch this week's message, "Treasure Hidden in a Field", to learn more about this important topic.
We love you and we are praying and standing with you as you seek to serve Him where you are.
Love in Christ
