Darnel

“Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.  
But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.  
When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. 
“The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’ 
“ ‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’ 
“ ‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them.  
Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”
Matthew 13:24-30
The parable of Jesus says it all when it comes to the church. There are many preachers in the church and in the media that might resemble Christians. These men and women may quote the Bible. They may claim to do mighty things for God but really all they are, are fakes.
The Parable quoted by Jesus notes weeds that were sown among the grain. Commentators say he was probably referring to darnel that when it first sprouts looks like wheat. It is even called in some areas false wheat.
So it is with some evangelist and churches in the world today. Jesus even said,
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.  
Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’  
Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’” 
                                                                                        Matthew 7:21-23 
To the none-Christian I would say don’t look on the negative. If you are truly searching for meaning in life. It’s easy to see these false preachers particularly those in the media and say it’s all a fake or a con.
Don’t be so quick to judge. There are many, many churches out there that are preaching the true word of God.
I would recommend that you take a look particularly at the New Testament and read it. Even pray and ask God to show you the true Jesus Christ.
Ask God to direct you to a good God fearing, Christ proclaiming church that practices love and understanding.
If you do so it has been my experience that God will show you sometimes in spite  of your doubt.
Think about it.
