Here is the latest addition to my series, Stories and Parables of Jesus. The point of this parable is that there are those within the church who are not genuine Christians, but they can look very genuine if one doesn't look to deeply. It's no good trying to judge who they are because even genuine Christians will invariably disappoint us at times. We must leave it up to the reapers (angels?) to separate the genuine from the spurious when the time comes. I hope this song is a blessing to all who listen.

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying,
The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man
which sowed good seed in his field:
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares
among the wheat, and went his way.

But when the blade was sprung up,
and brought forth fruit,
then appeared the tares also.
So the servants of the householder came and said unto him,
Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field?
from whence then hath it tares?

He said unto them, An enemy hath done this.
The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we
go and gather them up?
But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares,
ye root up also the wheat with them.

Let both grow together until the harvest:
and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers,
Gather ye together first the tares,
and bind them in bundles to burn them:
but gather the wheat into my barn.

Matthew thirteen, twenty-four through thirty.
