Matthew 13: 24 – Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man who sowed good seed in his field:
Luke 22:29 – And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father has appointed unto me;
30 – That you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
