In today’s Scripture passage, our Lord continued to speak about the Kingdom of Heaven. The Lord said, “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some of every kind” (Matthew 13:47). Our Lord said here that the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet. The dragnet refers to God’s Church.
Why did God say that His Church is like a dragnet that is cast into the sea? He said this because it is through God’s Church that the gospel of the water and the Spirit is sown throughout the whole world, and souls are thereby saved from their sins. God has sown the seed of the gospel of the water and the Spirit in this world through His Church, so that all mankind may enter His Kingdom. This is why He spoke of Heaven by drawing an analogy to casting a net.
