The Parables Of Jesus: 7

The Parables Of The Weeds

This parable is about the end of the world, during the judgment. In the parable, a man sowed his seed in the field, but during the night, when no one was watching, his enemy came in and spread weed seeds among the wheat seeds. They all sprang up together. The servants asked if they should begin pulling the weeds, but he told them to let them grow together because if you pull the weeds too soon, you might damage the wheat. Once it was harvest time, the weeds were gathered first and separated from the wheat and thrown into the fire. 

The field is the world, the wheat is the saved, the enemy is Satan, the weeds are those who rejected Jesus, the reapers and servants are the angels.

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. Matthew 13:30

If you are not paying attention, you will miss it. Jesus is telling us that the saved will be here until judgment day and that the evil and the unsaved will be gathered first. It’s clear when he says, “Gather ye together first the tares.” Jesus is here talking about the end of the end, after tribulation and his earthly reign, and after the devil’s little season. This is just an observation and me thinking out loud about the possibility, but could it be that season now? Could the devil have labeled the millennial reign as the Dark Ages to deceive us further? There is so much evidence pointing to this being a possibility. Look at the architecture we can no longer build, which was supposed to have been built when we only had horses and buggies. Could such extraordinary structures have been built during the millennial kingdom? There is evidence, but we have had our brains seared and have dismissed it. Then try to explain this verse:

Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. Matthew 16:28

I have so many questions, but I’m keeping my eyes open and digging for answers, especially when there is historical evidence that can’t be hidden in darkness. It’s not a sin to ask questions and seek answers, one way or another.
