some time ago i uploaded a video called the age of mankind and tree of knowledge of good and evil and
i talked about this world is a testing ground to pick out all the righteous people from all the people that are born. So according to how people live this world they are going to be picked to enter into the kingdom and all the wicked people who do wicked things will be cast out, so that’s the purpose of this age of mankind.
So this is matthew chapter 13 verse 47 “again the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some of every kind which when it was full they drew to shore and they sat down and gathered the good into vessels but threw the bad away. So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just and cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Jesus said to them, have you understood all these things. They said to him yes lord”
So this is talking about the age. So at the end of the age the angel will gather all the righteous and separate all the wicked. So this is the age of mankind before the age of God. So right now, like, the mankind took the center stage so God is seemingly hidden away and we don’t see God and it looks like the mankind are the main characters and after this age the age of God will come.
So what is the purpose of this age of mankind? So it says here “they are using the dragnet to gather in all the fish”. So all the good fish will be gathered and all the bad fish will be cast away. So what are the good fish and what are the bad fish? So the good fish are the good people and the bad fish are the bad people. So what are the good people? It’s the people who do good things and bad people are those who do wicked things.
So if I say that a lot of Christians will be alarmed because they believe that people are picked to enter the kingdom of God through their faith not according to their works. So a lot of Christians will not be able to accept this message.
So people will be chosen by whether or not they are the righteous people or the wicked people. So people will be chosen according to how they live their lives in this world. So the good people will enter the kingdom, but maybe you have heard that Christianity is not a religion in which people will be saved by whether or not they are good or evil but they are saved by grace and faith, but this passage is saying people are being saved because they are good people. So does it mean that if they are good people they are saved?
So how can you be a good person? There are many good people in this world but not all of them will be saved. So what it means is that you have to be a good people by the standard of God. So some people might be called good people in this world but they are still not good enough by the standard of God.
So what is God’s standard? Jesus said even if you even look at a woman and sin then you are wicked so you shouldn’t even sin with your eyes, and your heart has to be clean not just your actions; that is the standard of God. So you have to repent to be a good person according to the standard of God and believe Jesus for your sins to be forgiven; that’s how you are saved.
So those who repent to be a righteous person according to the standard of God and believe Jesus, they will be saved. So that’s how people will be chosen for the next age, the Age of God.
So it says here “the angels will come forth separate the wicked from among the just and cast them into the furnace of fire.”
All the wicked will be separated from all the righteous people so that’s the purpose of this age and that’s what’s going on. But a lot of Christians will not be able to accept this message and they won’t be able to repent and they just hang on to the gospel of grace and faith and they don’t repent, and all those who don’t repent and remain wicked will be separated and cast out into the furnace. So i wish that all those who are watching this video will be blessed to become a good fish so that they can enter the next age which is the age of God. I wish you blessings from the lord.
