24.
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is
likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25. But
while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his
way.
If you
ever wanted to know how you be sure that the Bible is true and relevant,
statements like this one validate scripture.
Experience tells you exactly how the enemy works, but God tells you in scripture before it even
happens.
Matthew
13:24-30
24.
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is
likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25. But
while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his
way.
26. But
when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares
also.
27. So
the servants of the householder came and said unto
him, Sir,
didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28. He
said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou
then that we go and gather
them up?
29. But
he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye
root up
also the wheat with them.
30. 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.
The point
is: God in His infinite wisdom made you, so that as you proceed forward in life, you get to certain crossroads that are deciding points. Some of them early on, some along the way and
some left for a later date. Are you at a crossroad right now?
