The tares are weeds that look a lot like wheat

July 11th, 2010 · 2 Comments

If You read in ( Mathew 13:24 ) The tares are weeds that look a lot like wheat… a tare can be mistaken for the wheat.. The Bible Tells us they will grow up with the wheat until the harvest.

The harvest is at the end of the age.. Its interesting that new Christians can also look a lot like tares..This is not so we can Judge other people . People come into our lives claiming to be a christian or claiming to be from God, And If were not careful. They can make habit on our lives or dividing the body of Christ or even leading some astray and they do it all in the name of the lord..

Some will worship God in spirit and truth if you read in John 4:23,24) The Bible teaches us that we shall know them by their fruits in Matthew 7:16-20- Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns,or figs of thistles ? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. ..

( Matthew 15:8 -This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me… The bible tells us in Matthew 7:22-24 -Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock.

( John 4:23-24 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth..God gave us discernment, you can know a christian by their fruits as well as the non believer and the false prophets. Note: That they do blend in and they can look a lot like the wheat.

Anything contrary to the word of God you will know, when a spirit is evil, you will know, when a false prophet is twisting the word and sowing lies instead of seeds of truth, you will know.

what is discernment. The Bible tells us to try the spirits by the spirit. The true fruit are they that will do what God tells them to do ..they obey his laws and commandments ? Do they have Love.. The bible tells us that if we have not love then the Love of Christ is not in us.

Do they obey God or are they professing to know him and Living in sin. The way they live their lives and what they speak tells differently..they show their life one way but live another..

Do they do things to be seen of men or God… We are to pray for them and witness to them… but not to be pulled into there sin. The tare’s job is to choke the life out of the wheat . We do have to grow together along with the weeds these are the tares until Jesus Christ returns..
God allows them to grow together until the harvest, when he will gather up the wicked into the fire. [ John 15:6- If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Back to the subject of why a new Christian can look like a tare ? They are Still growing in the Lord and as a baby needs to learn to walk they need to grow to maturity . Growing to maturity from milk to the meat of Gods word as baby christians they are just learning to walk in the lord. before you know it they will run the race put before them and not faint, because these are the ones who have grown in the word of God and know the meat of Gods word. Those that got into the meat of Gods word and have been through the firy darts of the enemy and they have walked through trials and came out still standing.

They got into the meat of the word of God and grew in the Lord to a full maturity and they know how to follow the Lords instruction of how to walk and not fall . because they know the word of God and what it says in depth.. page upon page line upon line and they live by it. You must be separated from the world before you can receive the meat of the word. A christians growth progress is in the meat of his word and they know how to walk in obedience to the Scriptures. Where babies don’t know what the word of God says yet and they start out on milk.

The Milk and the Meat of God’s Word) the bible is talking about carnal and referring unto babies in Christ because they don’t know how to walk in Christ yet or know what Gods word says until we grow in his word. brethren, I could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hither to ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for where as there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?” (I Corinthians 3:1-3)

The tares are a specific peoples called Kenites. A tare looks like a wheat but it is bitter and no good. So are the Kenite, they look and act nice but deep down they can be and many are bitter and evil. God Allows both to grow together until the harvest.. Now it is easy to tell the difference between the wheat, tares, and the weeds. The wheat is longer, bigger, and stronger. The tare is shorter, medium sized, and weaker. The weed is the shortest, smallest, and the weakest…The weed doesn’t produce any seeds. The tare produces some seeds. The wheat produces the biggest seeds..Some having the form of Godliness, but deny the power thereof.

They look like they are saved, sanctified until they reach the threshing floor..Threshing in Bible times was the harvest time activity by which the grain was removed from the husk and the tares was separated …The threshing floor is a place where the seeds were separated from the vine. This is a painful time in a Christians life because it is where tests, trials, and tribulations comes to prove the faith. One can tell what Christian is victorious through the seeds produced. We all are over commers by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.

The power of the seed to full maturity in the lord
And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. In the parable, as the plants grow, tares look very much like wheat. It is almost hard to detect. Until the harvest “…Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn”. Matt. 13:30

The harvest of the earth time will be when it is ripe- Revelation 14:14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. Revelation 14:15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
The harvest time is How the tares are separation… Threshing in Bible times was the harvest time activity by which the grain was removed from the husk and the tares (false grain) was separated from the wheat.

    To blackbird rider on Your quote “Inside every critical person, there is a depressed idealist” this quote it comes from the worlds knowledge from a actor George Carlin stand up Comedian his quotes….
    George Carlin also quoted from his own words “I would never want to be a member of a group whose symbol was a guy nailed to two pieces of wood.” and he also quoted “Religion is just mind control”

    This is a lie from satan to deceive you from the truth.. The words that I quote
    are not my own but from the word of God. The Bible tells us that Worldly
    wisdom profits nothing…

    For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He
    taketh the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord knoweth the
    thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.” (1 Corinthians 3:19-20 )
    “The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
    The Law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide. The wicked
    watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.” (Psalm 37:30-32 )
    The Scriptures make plain that wisdom that is based upon the Word of God is the
    only true wisdom, while carnal “worldly” wisdom is nothing more than dead end
    self righteous vanity

    There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways
    of death. (Proverbs 14:12 )

    “The fear of The Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom
    and instruction” (Proverbs 1:7 ) Gods word tells us that if we lose our life for
    his name sake we shall save our life in the next People can’t expect eternal
    life and continue to live in sin they have to give up this world and except
    Jesus Christ as Lord and savor…. “Whoever loses his life for my sake will find
    it -Matthew 16:24-28

    “The fear of The Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all
    they that do His Commandments” (Psalm 111:10 )

    Jesus Loves you and died for you but the choice is not his to make but yours
    alone. He loves you and died For you that you could have eternal life in his son
    Jesus Christ. He didn’t come to condemn the world but to save it…

    “For God so loved the world, that he gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever
    believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not
    His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him
    might be saved. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth
    not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the Name of the only
    begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that Light is come into the
    world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
    For every one that doeth evil hateth the Light, neither cometh to the Light,
    lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth Truth cometh to the Light,
    that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” (John
    3:16-21 )

    I am here to preach salvation and truth and the word of God and to tell you that
    Jesus loves you and he died that you might have eternal life through his son.
    The rest is up to you, God gives every one a choice in this life to except Jesus
    Christ or Reject him. But there is no second chance when a person passes from
    this life.. the Bible says today is the day of salvation -2 Corinthians 6:2)

    May God Bless you and may you come to the Knowledge of Jesus Christ
