The parable of the wheat and the weeds in Matthew’s Gospel speaks of the coexistence between good and evil in the world. It shows that although the coming of the kingdom is imminent, the wicked and the faithful would coexist until the end of time at the Final Judgment. Although the weeds aren’t distinguishable among the wheat  as with the wicked among the faithful represented by the good seed. come harvest time, the Son of Man will send His angels to uproot the weeds - those who do evil and cause others to sin. While the parable encourages patience, it also provides an assurance that the faithful children of the kingdom will be vindicated at the end and the wicked will be thrown into fires of Hell and expelled from the Kingdom as in the alluded image Jesus used of the weeping and grinding of teeth. Will we be among the wheat or the weeds? The Lord gives us time to repent and grow to be like Him, let us not waste this opportunity.
