Tales about the Childrens Future

"Shall I not visit for these things? saith the Lord. Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land: the prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bearrule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof ?-Jer. v. 29-31.
The object of this discourse is to show the application of the foregoing text of sacred Scripture to the existing state of things in the professedly religious world.
I. The prophets prophesy falsely.
  II. The priests bear rule by their means.
    III. The people love to have it so.
      IV. What will ye do in the end thereof ?
  
Christ has taught us, in His own interpretation of the parable of the tares of the field, that the children of the wicked one, the tares, are to grow together with the children of the kingdom, the wheat, until the harvest, which is the end of this world; when the angels, the reapers, shall gather the wicked as tares and cast them into the fire, and they shall be burned; and that then the righteous shall shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father."
