This parable refers to the Second Coming and the judgment that will occur at that time, not the Rapture. Again, we see that the two are separate events. Some will be saved during the Tribulation period. The Gospel of Matthew is written primarily for a Jewish audience. Thus it was foretold that many Jews will accept Christ only during the Tribulation period.

Well, the beauty of free will, is that they can make the switch at any time they want, even when all this is over and done with.

Your will is not free, anymore than Verizon has unlimited data.

I find at Matthew 23:38 that the Jewish ' house of worship ' was abandoned by God.
Since Pentecost then the Israel of God is spiritual Israel, the Christian congregation. - 1st Peter 2:9,5.
Not a Jew by fleshly descent as per Romans 2:28-29.
Jerusalem 'above ' is now mother as per Galatians 4:26.

A great crowd will be saved/delivered/rescued alive through the coming great tribulation of Rev.7:14,9.
They are the figurative humble 'sheep'-like people at the coming 'time of separation' of Matthew 25:31-33,37,40.

Not any rapture, but a resurrection for the dead who can also be part of Jesus' coming 1,000-year rule over Earth.

All you Christians talking about the wheat harvest when the wheat harvest is Pentecost and the second coming is at Sukkot, not even in the same freaking season and yet you people think Jesus is coming on Pentecost because you read of the wheat and tares and you believe it is speaking of an end time when it is speaking about somebody coming to the wheat harvest in his own lifetime just as all the parables and the book of Revelation talks about your own path through the 7 feasts. Those first Christians were pushing toward the day of the coming of the Lord in their own lives, and even Paul told his people that they had not studied enough for Christ to have been formed in them and they were pushing to the day he could be formed in them, in their lifetimes.

The very first sentence of Revelation says that everything in the book must shortly come to pass for the reader of the boom, and the last thing said, it says the SAME THING.

Revelation is a book written on the fall Holy days that Christians know NOTHING ABOUT. The Parables are idioms about the 7 feasts of Christ that Christians know NOTHING ABOUT.

And yet, they all come to speak of the wheat harvest when they don't even know what happens on the wheat harvest. They don't know what the priests are doing and saying at the wheat harvest, they don't know what the congregation is saying and doing in the wheat harvest which is the reasons for everything said.

Yet every Christian wants to talk of the wheat harvest, or Rosh Hashanah, of Yom Kippur, of Sukkot, of Hashanah Rabbah, and of Shemini Atzeret, BUT THEY ARE SPEAKING OF THINGS THEY DON'T KNOW.

How is somebody going to teach on the wheat and tares WHEN THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE WHEAT HARVEST?

A Christian tells you that he is the righteous and God is coming to burn the wicked who are not the righteous.

Let me tell you exactly what this self righteous Christ is insinuating.

That Christian is insinuating that he does not sin, he is IN FACT SAYING that he is righteous right now, and there no reason for God to take an evil inclination from him because he has no evil inclination to be taken from him.

Christians might not know they are insinuating this fact, BUT THEY ARE.

The tare IS IN YOU. it is in me.

The New Testament explains this over and over and over but Christians still think they are the righteous and everyone else is the wicked, and they will burn.

Before the coming day of the Lord at Sukkot IN YOUR LIFETIME, you first have to become the Passover lamb yourself, you die daily to yourself to let Christ live,and you begin changing your life to begin studying till the day you come to Pentecost, and after Pentecost when you finally see that there is a wicked one IN YOU, THEN you proceed to Sukkot where you are waiting on the coming of the Lord in your own life. Right now I am being led by a fowl bird, but I know this, and I am pushing to the day he is taken from me, and then the Lord comes to me IF, If I am able.

The New Testament was written for every single generation, FOR EVERYONE, NOT JUST YOU.

How do Christian really claim to be a bride of Christ?
How do Christians really claim that Jesus is a new Adam?

When did they ever get betrothed and the better question is,'' when was a bride taken from the body of this new Adam to create his own bride, IF he was a new Adam?

The problem is that everyone is speaking in general. Those 7 feasts teach exactly what is to happen. On Passover, the blood and water was taken from the body to create a bride, and a betrothal could not have been given before Pentecost, because it is the day OF BETROTHAL.

A betrothal is a legal marriage, but the marriage and consummation, and the birth of the son from the consummation, and the circumcision of the son ARE ALL PLANNED DAYS TO COME.

The wedding feast if a planned, set day.

Should we study the days created for the bride to be the bride?

7 appointed days to teach a bride that commits adultery and flat out doesn't want to know her own days.
