In other words, some people in the church are there because they are called by God, and some people in the church are hypocrites called by the devil. Seems self-explanatory.

As has already been defined this parable is about the righteous and depraved. because the 2d coming of Christ approaches the righteous and depraved will be mixed jointly and each and each allowed to adhere to their very personal route. regardless of the indisputable fact that, as His go back grows closer God's judgments will commence to split the wheat from the tares. finally on the time of His coming the tares will destroyed via hearth and the righteous will inherit the earth.

Matthew 13:36-43
The Parable of the Weeds Explained
36Then he left the crowd and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field."
37He answered, "The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. 38The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, 39and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
40"As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

We are all the children of God, but the tares are those who disobey the word of God. The new testament calls them the children of disobedience and children of wrath but the point of the parable is that the children of righteousness are not supposed to try to root out the children of disobedience, such as in the inquisition and crusades etc. That is not the will of God.

The tares sprung up among the wheat because the devil entered them. But God chooses to let them remain even though they are bad because He is willing to give them time to repent.

Basically the wheat are the followers of Jesus who are pure and true to the teachings. Whereas the tarrow are also followers of Jesus but have been infected by false doctrines, other false ideas and those who do not live their lives accordingly to the word.

The weeds are the stuff of everyday life that annoy us, challenge us, and ultimately teach us. The wheat is what the bread that nourishes us is made from.
