Wow! Someone special had left this link on my channel. What a beautiful teaching to be spread. I woke up this morning asking The Lord to let me know what He wants me to do next. I love this message. Thank you for teaching the teachers! Subscribed.

To understand the parable of the Wheat and the Tares it's critical to understand what the Jews of Jesus' day believed would happen right after the coming of the Messiah. After ousting the Romans, there was to be huge court hearing called the Judgment of "Fire." This "fire" was not literal, but a metaphor representing the intensive scrutiny the Messiah would apply to the ACTIONS of every person, in order to determine who would be granted citizenship in the independent, earthly, eternal, theocratic Jewish State the Messiah would begin establishing, and who would be exiled. The Apostle Paul explained what would happen at the Judgment in I Corinthians 3:11-15. The judgment "fire" would "burn up" all the WORKS of people (make a note--NOT the PEOPLE THEMSELVES) which are either patently evil OR works that were only superficially good, because they were, for example, only done for show! (As when Jesus explained how the Pharisees loved to make donations for others to see, those who had "already received their reward"! Now, if a person had repented of sins beforehand, then he would be forgiven and still admitted to citizenship, BUT there would be NO REWARDS if all his works were otherwise deemed unworthy! Of course, of those who had repented of sins and, from there, gone on to perform good works from a sincere heart, there would be rewards too, like getting a really good job in the new government of the Messiah, and a nice mansion to boot! Paul used the metaphor of "wood, hay and stubble" to represent the works that would be burned up, and "gold, silver and precious stones' to represent the purely good works. What, then, happens to those who don't get citizenship? Well, they are expelled and exiled from the Kingdom until they can prove they have repented and later on, come back for an appeal! (Though Jesus made it clear sinners and publicans would win their appeals long before the Pharisees, who would be the LAST to get in!) Now, let's look at the parable of the Wheat and the Tares which, just so it's clear, was first spoken in Aramaic, then translated into Greek and finally, re-translated into English...which makes it a bit difficult to understand the antecedents! The parable talks about the "things that offend." THINGS, the WORKS that will not prove worthy and will be "burned up." In many English translations, it's easy to confuse what happens to the Things That Offend and Those Who Practice Lawlessness, because of the strange word order. But in the original Aramaic, it's clear it will be the WORKS That Offend that will be "burned up in the fire," and the PEOPLE who practiced lawlessness will be exiled. The good news is that one need not understand Aramaic or Greek grammar to be so sure it's not the people who will be burned? Here's why: Because PEOPLE getting burned alive don't just merely cry, as their teeth are chattering!!! People getting burned alive are screaming at the top of their lungs, and they are most certainly NOT so COLD that their teeth begin to CHATTER! NO! What Jesus was trying to say is that there will be a whole bunch of very religious people at the Judgment who, because they were so outwardly religious, will be fully expecting, not only citizenship, but many rewards for all their superficial pious acts...but who will be very shocked and dismayed when they see all of their "pious" works go up in smoke! Then, they will be escorted out, and sent into exile, "tossed out into the cold" as it were! So, as they are being sent away they will be begin to cry uncontrollably ("weeping"), and as they find themselves on the outs of the Kingdom of God, "in the cold," their teeth will begin to chatter ("gnashing of teeth")! The main point of the parable is how it might be difficult to know which persons are truly righteous in their hearts and who is just making a show of it, but that on the Judgment Day (by the way, there will be only ONE Judgment Day), God will tell the difference! Oh, but how the false preachers and teacher of today love to distort the meaning of this parable, trying to make is seem like God is some sort of Cosmic Nazi who plans to torture people in the worst possible way, for eternity, by taking advantage of the ignorance most people have about the beliefs of the Jews in Jesus' day, and the poor language employed (perhaps not by accident) in so many bible translations!
