Sifting Of Wheat And Closing The Eyes?
Amos 9:9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.
Luke 22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
This sifting happens within one life? How can that be if “not the least grain fall upon the earth?”
This sifting process is growth through experiences from your past, into your present, and your future. All leading back to God.
One flesh life? Explain how an abortion,baby or small child that died had freewill and live a life choosingto serve good or evil?
What about those souls that God has closed their eyes?
Isa 29:10 For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.
Rom 11:8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.
Could these lives serve a special purpose in God’s plan? Was a babies eyes closed?
Exo 9:12 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken unto Moses.
How does Gods hardening of the heart work in the plan?
Living in eternity gives souls the “time” to grow through experiences, grow in love, and perfection as Christ said; Be ye perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect”. (Mat 5:48) Souls progressively grow closer (back) to God through their perfecting eternal life back to your created image and likeness.
How much “heaven, kingdom,or hell” will be within you that you carry into your next life? The life that follows you.
When you look at all the verses that state God, Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the kingdom are within you, and you came from Him; in His Image and Likeness; If you were God, would you destroy what you unconditionally love that is a part of you and your creation is good, would you EVER destroy?
God’s love never changes. He loves the sinner as much as those souls living in goodness. How can one be condemned to an eternal death in one life? The sifting continues.
If Gods Word is living; and He is the Word, (John 1:1) never changing, (Mal 3:6) and the beginning and the end, (Rev 22:13) sounds to me that any way you want to look at your eternity, the Word will apply to your life.
Isa 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
