The
“harvest” is a time for winnowing the “wheat”—a
sifting, a separating time, and it is for each of us to
prove our characters: “Having done all, stand!” The
tests of this “harvest” must be like those of the Jewish
or typical “harvest.” One of them is the cross, another is
the presence of Christ, another is humility,
another is love. The Jews were reproved
because they “knew not the time of their
visitation.” The matter is doubly distressing for
those who have once seen the light of Present Truth, and
afterward go into the “outer darkness.” It implies
un-faithfulness. |
