Stories of the Kingdom: The Parables of Jesus

DAY 16 OF 39

Parable of the Fishing Net

In Matthew 13:47-50, Jesus shares the parable of the fishing net. He describes the kingdom of heaven as like a large net cast into the sea, which gathers fish of every kind. The fishermen pull the net ashore and sit down to sort the fish when the net is full. They keep the good fish and throw away the bad ones.

How does the imagery of the fishing net gathering fish of every kind reflect the inclusivity of the kingdom of heaven?

About this Plan

Stories of the Kingdom: The Parables of Jesus

Jesus was a master storyteller. He knew that the timeless principles He was trying to articulate would be best remembered through storytelling. He often spoke through parables to (1) communicate a more profound truth, (2) make His teachings more accessible to those who were ready to hear them, and (3) confound those who refused to listen. Parables were shaped to convey a single thought, so don't get lost in the details wondering what each part means. Absorb the story and allow Jesus to communicate His truth to your heart.
