Jesus said, " Kingdom of heaven is like this:
- a man takes a mustard seed and sows it in his field. it is the smallest of all seeds, but when it grows up, it is the biggest of all plants.(Matt13;31-32)
- a woman takes some yeast and mixes with bushel of flour until the whole batch of dough rises.(Matt.13:33)
- a man happen to find a hidden treasure in a field. He covers it up again, and is so happy that he goes sells everything he has, and goes back and buys that field.(Matt.13:44)
- a man is looking for fine pearls, and when he find one that is unusually fine, he goes sells everything he has and buys that pearl.(Matt.13:45,46)
- some fishermen throw their net out in the lake and catch all kinds of fish. When the net is full, they pull it to the shore and sit down to divide the fish; the good ones go into the buckets, the worthless ones are thrown away . It will be like this at the end of the age; the angels will go out and gather evil people from among the good and throw them into the fiery furnace, where they will cry and gnash their teeth." (Matt.13:47-50)
