Pigs and Sheep Wheat and Tares


Many people profess to be Christians but their fruit shows that they are not followers of Jesus Christ. Pigs and sheep are both animals but sheep avoid dirt, they avoid mud. Pigs love the mud, they love the dirt. Even if you wash them they go straight back into the mud at the first opportunity. Many so-called Christians are like that, they love sin, they wallow in sin. They profess to be Christians but they are PIGS. They love sin and the things of this world.
Wheat and tares look the same but tares do not produce wheat. Jesus Christ is coming to clean His threshing floor and His winnowing fork is in His hand and He will separate the wheat and the chaff. The wheat He will gather in His barns, in His kingdom, but the chaff will be burned with unquenchable fire.
We are all in this world but we are not of this world. If we are of Jesus we will be like him, pure and holy, we will not love the things of the world. We will produce fruit of righteousness. We will produce good fruit and thereby prove to be children of God. We will glorify Jesus in that which we do. Both pigs and sheep, wheat and tares share the same land but in the end Jesus will separate the good from the bad. Will we be worthy of Jesus when He comes? Will He accept us into His kingdom or will we be burned with unquenchable fire? What are we? Pigs or sheep, wheat or tares, chaff or wheat that is suitable for our Master?

May Jesus bless you.
