ENTRANCE TO THE KINGDOMS
One of the parables told by Jesus reveals that all men are either part of the Kingdom of Satan or
the Kingdom of God. Jesus compared the world to a field. The good seed in the field were the
children of the Kingdom of God. The bad seed, which resulted in the growth of tares (weeds)
were the children of the wicked one:
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the Kingdom; but the
tares are the children of the wicked one. (Matthew 13:38)
People enter the Kingdom of Satan through natural birth. The Bible teaches that all men are born
in sin. This means that they have a basic sin nature or the "seed" of sin within. Their natural
inclination is to do evil:
Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
(Psalms 51:5)
