Hey everybody!!! Since we got married in he beginning of the year we moved into a new house here in the countryside!! Its wonderful to have such a big garden but I soon found out it is also a big job maintaining one!!
I love gardening but had to learn a lot because I do not have any experience! Anybody who has a garden will no the frustration of weeds!!! You keep pulling out, they keep coming back! I have thought to myself, if only my plants will grow as lavishly as the weeds!! Ha ha, no wonder the Messiah had a parable teaching on weeds!!! - Mat 13.
When I first sowed seed I did not yet know what the young plants will look like. Soon there were sprouts of weeds and plants but I couldn't tell the difference yet. So I left the weeds and waited for the plants to mature more. If they are mature it is easier to spot the difference! It is the same with truth and false teaching. If you learn new stuff, you have to give yourself time to grow in spirit. As you mature it will become easier for you to distinguish the difference between truth and false teaching.
I regularly have to go back and pull out weeds, because they always return!!! Satan will always try to mix false teaching with truth and misguide us! You have to take a step back every now and then and evaluate what you believe! Go back to the Scriptures and test EVERYTHING that EVERYBody says! He sometime even gives us false teachings through true believers! They do not even know their teachings are mixed with falseness! HE is very smart and will always mix 5% lies with 95% truth!
But the more I pull out the weeds, the less they become and my other plants grow stronger and higher and more numerous!! If you evaluate what you belief, if you pray and STICK to Scripture, then the TRUTH will grow and start producing fruit!!!
