Default Re: This Seems To Go Against Matthew 13...

Simon,

You make a good point.

Somewhere The Book says "it rains on the just and the unjust."

I guess God waters the weeds as well as the wheat.

I just don't want to be counted among the weeds at the Great Harvest.

Be blessed, and thanks for the reminder...
