¹⁰ So those servants went out into the highways and ^(A)gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good. And the wedding hall was filled with guests.

⁹ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. ^(A)Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor ^[a]homosexuals, nor ^[b]sodomites, ¹⁰ nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And such were ^(B)some of you. ^(C)But you were washed, but you were ^[c]sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

^6 (A)And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For ^(B)the^[a] Lord God Omnipotent reigns! ⁷ Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for ^(C)the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” ⁸ And ^(D)to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, ^(E)for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

⁹ Then he said to me, “Write: ^(F)‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’ ” And he said to me, ^(G)“These are the true sayings of God.”

A Multitude from the Great Tribulation

⁹ After these things I looked, and behold, ^(A)a great multitude which no one could number, ^(B)of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, ^(C)clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands,

²⁰ Nevertheless I have ^[a]a few things against you, because you allow ^[b]that woman ^(A)Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, ^[c]to teach and seduce My servants ^(B)to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. ²¹ And I gave her time ^(C)to ^[d]repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent. ²² Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of ^[e]their deeds. ²³ I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who ^(D)searches^[f] the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.

^19 (A)They went out from us, but they were not of us; for ^(B)if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out ^(C)that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.

²¹ lest, when I come again, my God ^(A)will humble me among you, and I shall mourn for many ^(B)who have sinned before and have not repented of the uncleanness, ^(C)fornication, and lewdness which they have practiced.

The Parable of the Dragnet

⁴⁷ “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and ^(A)gathered some of every kind, ⁴⁸ which, when it was full, they drew to shore; and they sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but threw the bad away.

¹⁰ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and ^(A)the door was shut.
