Parable of the Dragnet

A fishing net is thrown into the water and brings in fish of every kind, and the sorting comes later. In the final parable of the series, Pastor Dale says the church's mission is to cast a big net and bring people in, and that we are in the people business, not the judging business.

1. We the church fish for people.

2. The net catches the good, the bad, and the ugly, and Jesus is the one who cleans and judges, not us.

3. We teach people to be prepared to meet Jesus, because a separation is coming at the end of the age.
