We might need to take this to a thread of its own. I think it all ties in together. Our spirits are feeling what is coming.

Sometimes I weep when this happens and it has not happened like this for a while. Now I see what you mean. Sorry that I misunderstood. .. it is similar but at the same time different than just having an emotional sorrow. But I reiterate, at such times prayer in the form of travail and intercession is the thing to do. Those who weep in such a way will in due time come forth with rejoicing, bringing their sheaves with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Well i am more and more aware of how lost are so many. How ignorant and suffering needlessly. It worries me but i feel helpless. God must be so disappointed. He will put all things right. Pray and trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn. ’ ” Using the interpretive keys Jesus gave us we can begin drawing some firm conclusions from the parable itself: Sower and field owner = Jesus Field = the world Good Seed = sons of the kingdom Enemy = the devil Tares = sons of the devil Timing = end of the age Harvesters/reapers = angels There are several natural candidates that could fit the role of Biblical tares and the middle-eastern darnel is my favorite, though I can't be dogmatic about that The darnel is a plant that is virtually indistinguishable from wheat in it's early growth stage which would explain why the harvesters noticed the tares after the tares and grain both began to form heads, very close to the harvest. The life cycle is a close match between the two plants (time wise) with the darnel maturing *slightly* faster than the wheat. The darnel forms a head of seeds that is smaller (and lighter) than the heads of grain formed by wheat and as a result the darnel begins to stand taller than the wheat as the heads mature and the wheat begins to bend over under the weight of the growing wheat berries. That satisfactorily explains why the tares become more visible and identifiable once head formation begins. But it's interesting to note that it was the field owner (Jesus) who decided to let the tares finish their maturing process while the wheat was doing the same. So we see a picture of the sons of the devil maturing into all the wickedness and darkness their "father" is capable of while the sons of the kingdom are growing into the full potential Jesus sowed into those that are His. I see here evidence of an increasingly visible difference between the two which I believe will serve to remove EVERYONE from any ability to sit "on the fence". It will become obvious to all there are two choices and all will make a choice between the two with full knowledge of whether they are choosing to submit to an increasingly bright light of salvation or an increasingly dark kingdom of evil. At the exactly right time the harvest will begin with the gathering of the tares for burning and closely followed by the gathering of the wheat into His barn... Edit to add: Quote Dan 11:31-35 “And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation. “Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. “And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering. “Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by intrigue. “And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.
