This Week's Gospel Reading
07/18/26
“Do You Understand All These Things”
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind: Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away. So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord. Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old. And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.”
Book of Mattiyahu/Matthew 13:47-53
Yehoshua compares the kingdom of G-d to a net cast by fishermen upon sea. The net catches a plethora of fish, the eatible and the traif. In the end, only the good ones shall be gathered. The rest are cast aside. This parable remains a reminder Yehoshua calls each of us to become part of the awakening in spirit, His body… “The church”. However, not every member of the church is truly logged in as truly faithful into the Body as a whole. Yet, HaShem’s merciful grace is upon the good and the not so good equally just as the sun shines upon the obedient and the disobedient alike; “That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” (Book of Mattiyahu/Matthew 5:45).
This is why we have no justification to reject anyone. Even Yehoshua Himself does not send away anyone who comes to Him (“That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust” – {Book of Yochanan/John 6:37}.
Today’s gospel reading reminds to us of the call to restoration, to awakening and remebering our true nature as a portion of the divine, of our loving Creator. Nobody knows when their last day upon this mortal coil of illusion may come, whether we are prepared or not. On that day, Elyon’s loving welcome home in unifed harmony is our lastiong reward. On that day, each one of us shall return to our Creator, resting full in all His kno0wledge and wisdom. Each soul shall be challenged in that that, measured, weighed and reviewed within the context of their own contributions to call of loving peace and harmony, except perhaps those whose freedom to choose was compromised in disability, whether psychological or otherwise, who are granted an exception of grace to the perfect eternal union among the Plemora.
Many have a tendency to live in a 3 foot world, oblivious that anyone is observing our demeanor. Many of us fall short of the ‘mark’ blind to our accountability. Still yet others, believe crime does not pay and that is why many criminals, even after their earthly punishment, return to normal life without thought to transgressions. On the Day, nothing shall be hidden. If the wicked live without consequence while living on earth, they shall not go without consequence, an accounting shall be held on that Day… sooner or later, they will face the consequences of the transgressions against their fellow man and HaShem Himself. Yehoshua reminds us through the parable above, while there is time, let us seek to do righteousness and at all times to be a reflection of Ha’Moshiach’s love. It may be difficult to “seek first the kingdom of G-d and His righteousness” due to the influence of our egos and negative responses of some people, as well, those who hold no concept of true faith, but let us all be reminded the freedom we enjoy while here on earth is limited and temporary; whereas, the peace and joy shall come.
“Do you understand all of these things”, Yehoshua asks his disciples in verse 51. Let us always pray for to receive great grace that the Holy Spirit shall grant each of us the gift of knowledge and wisdom, that we may be able to fully comprehend the Word as revealed through the scriptures. Let us as well be discerning in things which are happening in our midst; including with those within the church (Body of Christ). Rediscover in verse 52, Y’shua desired the scribes to understand and accept the truths He was now teaching them, just as they embrace the truth of the First Covenant (Old Testament). Today, there are many differing and often conflicting perspectives in understanding, regarding the path that the church shall traverse. We listen to the prospective of all. With the guidance of Rauch Ha’ Chodesh (The Holy Spirit), may we continue to be united even as we try to do the delicate task of balancing different perspectives, keeping in mind the truth of the original scriptures provided through our loving Father’s chosen emissaries.
