Read the scripture out loud:
Matthew 13:47-50 AMP
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet which was lowered into the sea, and gathered fish of every kind, and when it was full, they dragged it up on the beach; and they sat down and sorted out the good fish into baskets, but the worthless ones they threw away. So it will be at the end of the age; the angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw the wicked into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping [over sorrow and pain] and grinding of teeth [over distress and anger].
Commentary on this scripture:
(You are welcome to adjust these words in the way you know your child can understand-the below is just a guide)
This scripture is speaking of a future time that will happen. God wants us to know this so that we can make good decisions and follow Him all our lives. He also wants us to know this so that we will pray for others and tell others about Jesus, so that they don’t go to this place of eternal pain and sorrow. There will come a time when the righteous who follow God will be separated from those who are wicked and those who are wicked will be sent to a place of sorrow and pain.
