27"The owner's servants came to him and said, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?'
28" 'An enemy did this,' he replied.
"The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and pull them up?'
29" 'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.' "
actually OP, that response is very intelligent.
but....flip it back over....
would this metaphor not literally stunt the growth or degrade the quality of the whole crop?
sorry if I seem ignorant, I believe that God is a metaphorical myth to control the masses.
I watched my dad burn to death when I was 10.
no God or Devil turned up that day.
just a fire engine and a meat truck.
Sorry.
The true God is simply Nature - progressing forward.
Just because a flower grows next to a weed does not mean the flower is less of a flower. it just has a lousy neighbor.
i am sorry for your loss and who knows. If God is getting ready for the harvest, He might call to you before the end too.

Right before I woke up I heard...."Who you gonna call? Ghost Busters!"
Reminds me of this dream I had a few days before this
I had a lucid dream this morning about a giant who was very loving to us. I also heard him say, "the rightwings will take the country back". I got a strong feeling these rightwings were from a supernatural army. Jesus is the giant of all rightwings who sits at God's righthand, and the rightwings are the angels, and the bride.
Makes me think of this scripture
Romans 8:18-19
Consequently I reckon that the sufferings of the present season do not amount to anything in comparison with the glory that is going to be revealed in us. 19 For the eager expectation of the creation is waiting for the revealing of the sons of God
