HARVEST IS COMING

Matthew 13:24 - 30
            " Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought up fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the house holder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in he time of harvest i will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into the barn"
           In the beginning, God created man in His own image (Genesis 1:27), but sin came into the life of man through disobedience to God (Genesis 3:1-6). After this, there were provisions for reconciliation by offering animals as sacrifices, but this had to be done over and over each time one comes short of God's commandments, so God decided to provide a final solution to this because of the love He has for the world by sending JESUS CHRIST, His only begotten Son to die for all our sins, and after this, man was reconciled to God.
            This reconciliation is not automatic for everyone because you must do your own part, which is; to accept the offer. JESUS came down from heaven to die for our sins, and if you want this to be applicable to your own life; you have to accept Jesus as your own LORD and SAVIOR so that He will bear all your burdens.
            Matthew 11:28 says " Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
             In our text above, the only way you will not be as the tares which will be burnt is accepting Jesus. Accept Jesus today so that all your burdens will be taken away.
