Parable of the Wheat and Weeds
Jesus told a story about a farmer who sowed good seed, but an enemy later sowed weeds among the wheat while people slept. Fearing they would uproot the wheat, the farmer instructed his servants to let both grow until the harvest. At the harvest, the weeds would be gathered and burned, and the wheat would be stored in the barn. Jesus later explained the parable's meaning (Matthew 13:24-30;36-43): the farmer is the Son of Man, the field is the world, the good seed are the children of the kingdom, and the weeds are the children of the evil one. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels who will separate the righteous from the wicked. E256.

“Between the Crosses, Row on Row”
WWI (1914-18) was a global conflict whose horrendous battlefields consumed a generation of young Christian men on Europe’s Western Front. Canadian soldier John McCrae (a Presbyterian; 1872-1918) and American humanitarian Moina Michael (a Methodist; 1869-1944) sparked a remembrance movement in honor of the war dead and veterans, forever inspired by the phrase “Between the crosses, row on row.” E255.

Remembrance Day
In 1918, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the fighting on the Western Front ceased, marking Armistice Day and the end of the Great War, World War one. The First World War officially came to an end on November 11th, 1918, when all troops kept a minute of silence, described by many soldiers who were on battlefields during that moment, as a religious experience when the Almighty spoke clearly to mankind—the sudden silence being the Voice of God.

393. Lateran Basilica
The Feast of the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica is celebrated annually on November 9 and commemorates the founding and consecration of the Arch-basilica of Saint John Lateran in Rome by Pope Sylvester I in 324 AD, following Emperor Constantine's legalization of Christianity. Lateran Basilica is the oldest public church in the city of Rome, and the oldest basilica in the Western world. Co-dedicated to Saint John the Baptist and Saint John the Evangelist, The Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran is the official cathedral of the Pope (as the Bishop of Rome), making it the true ecclesiastical seat of Rome rather than St. Peter’s Basilica. The feast symbolizes universal unity with the Pope and the global Catholic community. The celebration reminds believers that the physical building represents the spiritual church—the body of Christ built of living stones and individual souls consecrated through baptism.

Feast of the Archangels
November 8 is the annual celebration of the Archangels, a Christian feast honored in in Eastern traditions and September 29 in Western traditions (also known as Michaelmas). Archangels are high-ranking angels in Abrahamic religions who serve as chief messengers and leaders of heavenly hosts. The Main Archangels are Michael: The protector and leader of the heavenly armies who fights against evil; Gabriel: The primary messenger of God who announces major divine plans; Raphael: The healer and guide associated with restoration and protection; and Uriel: Often included as a fourth, known as the angel of light and wisdom. Western Christianity (Catholicism): Explicitly names and venerates Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael from canonical scripture. Eastern Tradition (Orthodox): Recognizes a total of seven principal archangels, including Uriel, Jegudiel, Selaphiel, and Barachiel. In the Gospel of Luke, the celebrated celestial being who tells the Virgin Mary of her Destiny is the Archangel Gabriel. He also announces the impending birth of John the Baptist to his father Zacharias. HJe50.

The concept of Purgatory is not adhered to by all Christians but is nevertheless a fascinating topic well worth investigating. Protestants do not believe in purgatory.

What is Purgatory?
November 2 is the annual feast day associated with purgatory — All Souls' Day (officially the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed). The concept of Purgatory is not adhered to by all Christians but is nevertheless a fascinating topic well worth investigating. The word "purgatory" is rooted in Latin, meaning to purify, purge, or cleanse; a place or condition of temporal punishment for spiritual cleansing after death of souls dying penitent and destined ultimately for Heaven. It is NOT considered as a place of probation, for, the ultimate salvation of those in purgatory is assured, and the impenitent are NOT received into purgatory. The souls in purgatory are supposed, however, to receive relief through the prayers of the faithful and according to the traditional Catholic understanding, through the sacrifice of the mass. Protestants do not believe in purgatory. They typically reject the doctrine because they argue it lacks biblical support and is inconsistent with the Protestant belief in salvation by faith alone, which holds that Jesus's sacrifice is sufficient for all sin.

November 2nd is All Souls' Day
November Second is a Christian feast day of prayer and remembrance for the deceased, known as All Souls Day, observed by the Roman Catholic Church, some Anglican and Lutheran denominations, and various Eastern Orthodox and Eastern Catholic churches. Christians honor the departed through prayer, Mass, and acts of charity, with many traditions involving visiting cemeteries to decorate graves. The observance grew out of earlier Christian traditions of praying for the dead. The practice has roots in the belief that the living can assist those who have died through prayer, love, and sacrifice. It’s the last day of Allhallowtide, a Christian season which lasts three days that also includes All Hallows' Eve (also known as the secular Halloween on October 31st) which initiates Allhallowtide, and concludes November second with All Souls' Day.
