The Wheat and the Tares
This parable always struck me and it is apparently full on appropriate for today. We may not know who came here scattering their evils seeds but one thing for sure, over time we will see “who is who” when the plants grow to maturity. Which is clearly happening now.
“The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
“The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
“‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.
“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
“‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”
The powerful statement of this parable is how the plants have to grow up together to find this out. Is this what we are experiencing now in a very profound cycle of distended time?
Clearly the mimicking parasitic weeds are sucking the good nutrients out of the soil that nourishes the good plants. No doubt they’re good talkers, persuading their neighbors how needed they are in the community – in fact, “we should rule over you and help take care of things”.
Ever notice how fast and tall weeds grow, and in the most unlikely places? And how much they can mimic the plants they’re killing? And they DO kill off young sprouts if you don’t catch them. Crowding them out, sucking up the water and minerals.
Sound familiar?
The usurpers at work. They were hidden, but are now being exposed to a growing swathe of humanity. All part of the division.
