The Great Farmer and Circumcision
HEADLINE
Matthew 13:24 Another parable put he forth unto them,
saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in
his field:
___________________________________________________________________________________
All of us know something about farmers and gardeners. They plant more than wheat and barley. Some things they plant actually produce
edible goods down beneath the ground.
Onions, white potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, beets, radishes, and
turnips are a few of the vegetables that thrive beneath a thick coating or
covering of clay or dirt. To enjoy their
harvest a gardener or farmer does not leave a thick layer of dirt around them. They are uprooted from the clay and all
residue of dirt and soil is washed away from them, In Revelation 14:14-18, the harvesting of
grapes and wheat are mentioned. I am
here to discuss the harvesting of other vegetables not in that discussion. Who likes a baked white potato with sour
cream, or sweet potato with creamery butter?
Would you be pleased, if you were served carrots with a layer of the
soil they grew in as part of the dish before you? Of course not! Those "tubers" when harvested must
have the clay ground, or dirt removed and washed from them.
Now let us relate this to "Farmer-God". His field is planet Earth and He sowed and
planted a variety of fruits and vegetables in it, Matthew 13:38. These things are also analogous to HIS
CHILDREN. When the harvest comes, all
these other vegetables that I have mentioned must also be taken to the
"Barn of Heaven", or Paradise . Human beings are all those other vegetables
that Farmer-God planted down here, All
of them are walking around here in their THICK CLAY-SUITS (wearing human
bodies) that cover their glory as angelic spirits. No man is aware that beneath it all is our
LIGHT that only the Creator can see. No
fruit or vegetable can be brought to the Barn with any clay or dirt attached to
it. The clay ground and dirt (the human
body) must be removed first! That is the
purpose of human death. It is spiritual
"circumcision"! Then the
reapers bring the REDEEMED ANGELIC SPIRITS into the "Barn" for
processing. After that, the fine
carrots, potatoes, and turnips may speak freely, and sing if they like, maybe
even dance a few steps so that the whole Family Host may enjoy them!
1 Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that
flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom
of God ; neither doth
corruption inherit incorruption. 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of
an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be
raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this
corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on
immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on
incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be
brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in
victory. 55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy
victory? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the
law.
John 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the
true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the
Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that
worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Ecclesiastes 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the
earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Psalms 65:2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall
all flesh come.4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to
approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with
the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple. (Do you like
beets? I do!).
Isaiah 66:21 And I will also take of them for priests
and for Levites, saith the LORD. 22 For as the new heavens and the
new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall
your seed and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass, that
from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh
come to worship before me, saith the LORD.
Some of you may be tasty sweet potatoes, or delicious
carrots to Father-God! We won't know
until you lose that clay-suit you are wearing and present yourself to the
Family when you arrive in "the Barn".
If you are a great singer or you can cut a fancy step on the
dance-floor, we will find out soon enough when we meet in Family Reunion. There is no END to life. The Carpenters had it right. "We've Only Just Begun to Live"!
