The Drawnet
Matthew 13:47-50
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:…


1. We of this generation, a miscellaneous multitude of old and young, good and evil, move about at liberty in the wide expanse of life, as fishes move about in the deep broad sea; but certain mysterious, invisible lines, have been let down into the water, and are silently, slowly creeping near, and winding round us.

2. Good and bad alike are drawn in company towards the shore, but the good and bad are separated when they reach it.

(W. Arnot.)
