General Notes

Note

Matthew 13:47-52 Expanded Wall Label: From the depths of the cerulean sea come fish of every kinnd: speckled, smooth, bright, dark the plain and the colorful. A new comes to draw them to the surface and the many are divided—as good, as bad. Like a seaman’s net, forcefully and justly the Kingdom of Heaven will come.
