But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
 

13:29 also the wheat. Evidently it is impossible for anyone but the Lord Himself to distinguish unfruitful believers in the kingdom from false believers. Even the latter may not realize they are actually unsaved. Thus Peter warns those that are “barren” or “unfruitful” in Christ to “give diligence to make your calling and election sure” (II Peter 1:8,10).
