Biarkan Petani  yang Mencabut (Matius 13: 24-30)

[AkhirZaman.org] baru-baru ini kita berbicara tentang tanah yang berbeda, dan tanaman apa saja yang tumbuh. Kita menyebutnya gulma, dan dalam perumpamaan yang kita lihat hari ini, kita akan mempertimbangkan gulma secara khusus. Saya suka berkebun, setelah dibersihkan lalu Anda menanam benih, lalu tumbuh, tetapi kemungkinan besar banyak gulma juga akan tumbuh.

Banyak di antaranya adalah gulma yang mungkin harus dipetik dan dibuang dari kebun, tetapi kadang-kadang gulma terlihat seperti bunga.

Sekarang, intinya adalah bahwa sulit bagi kita untuk membedakan dengan penampilan mana yang baik, dan mana yang buruk. Kita tidak selalu dapat memberitahukannya hanya dengan melihat, jika kita tidak memiliki pemahaman atau pengetahuan yang benar tentang berbagai hal.

Nah, dalam perumpamaan hari ini, Yesus berbicara tentang bagaimana beberapa gulma bercampur di antara benih yang baik. Seorang petani menanam, tetapi seorang musuh datang dan menaburkan beberapa tanaman gulma sehingga mereka akan tercampur dengan gandum. Para pekerja bertanya apakah mereka harus mencoba mencabutnya, dan petani menyuruh mereka menunggu sampai mereka tumbuh, dan kemudian membiarkan petani memutuskan mana yang baik dan mana yang perlu dibuang.

Apa maksudnya bagi kita di dunia ini? Ya, Tuhan seperti petani itu. Dia adalah hakim utama hati manusia. Pada akhirnya, ada beberapa orang yang akan menolak rahmat Tuhan, dan tidak akan pergi ke Surga. Tetapi bukan tugas kita untuk memutuskan siapa orang-orang itu. Kita kadang-kadang tergoda untuk melihat penampilan atau tindakan seseorang, dan berpikir bahwa mereka jahat, atau bahwa mereka harus diusir dari gereja atau diabaikan atau dibuang. Kita mungkin berharap untuk meringkuk bersama dalam “gelembung” kebenaran kita sendiri, dan kita mungkin mengarahkan jari dan berpikir kita tahu lebih baik daripada orang lain. Itu tidak benar. Kita tidak tahu apa yang ada di hati orang-orang di sekitar kita. Kita tidak bisa berperan sebagai juri atau mengutuk orang-orang tertentu.

Yang benar adalah, kita semua berdosa. Kita hanya diselamatkan oleh darah Yesus, yang merupakan suatu berkat yang luar biasa! Pada akhirnya, keinginan Tuhan adalah agar semua orang mengenal Dia. Dia adalah hakim yang adil, tetapi Dia mengasihi semua umat-Nya dan ingin mereka mengasihi-Nya. Dia tidak memaksanya, tetapi Dia menginginkan hati kita. Daripada menghakimi atau mengasingkan orang yang tampaknya berbeda dari kita, kita harus berdoa untuk mereka. Kita harus meminta Tuhan untuk melembutkan hati mereka yang tidak baik, dan menggunakan kita untuk membawa orang lain ke dalam keluarga-Nya. Mengapa kita tidak berdoa untuk itu sekarang?

Momen Doa Anak-Anak Kepada Tuhan:
Terima kasih atas rahmat-Mu
Sehingga telah mengirim putra-Mu untuk semua orang
Bantu kami untuk mengasihi seperti Engkau mengasihi
Untuk tidak menghakimi satu sama lain
Tetapi untuk membawa orang lain supaya mengenal-Mu
Terima kasih atas kasih-Mu
Kami mengasihi-Mu, Tuhan!
Dalam nama Yesus, Amin!

  68. Just want to acknowledge that the writing here is doing something right, and a quick visit to buildforwardtraction confirmed the same standards run across the broader site, recognising good work is something I try to do when I find it because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity.

  69. Generally I find the content on similar topics frustrating in specific ways and this post avoided all of them, and a look at signaldrivengrowth continued that frustration free experience, content that sidesteps the standard failure modes of its genre is content with editorial awareness and this site has clearly studied what fails elsewhere consistently.

  70. Reading this triggered a small change in how I think about the topic going forward, and a stop at igniteforwardmotion reinforced that subtle shift, the rare content that actually moves my thinking rather than just confirming or filling it is the kind I most value and this site is providing that kind of impact today.

  71. Now planning to recommend this site in a context where my recommendations are taken seriously, and a stop at primequality confirmed I should make that recommendation soon, the small but real act of recommending content into spaces where my taste matters is something I take seriously and this site is worth the recommendation.

  72. Came away with a small but real shift in perspective on the topic, and a stop at igniteforwardmotion pushed that shift a bit further, the kind of subtle reframing that good writing does to a reader without making a big deal of it is something I always appreciate when it happens which is sadly not that often.

  73. Glad I gave this a chance rather than scrolling past, and a stop at ideaswithimpact confirmed I made the right call, sometimes the best content is hidden behind unassuming headlines that do not scream for attention and learning to slow down and check those out has paid off many times now across years of reading.

  74. Pass this along to colleagues if the topic comes up, the framing here is sensible, and a stop at signalbasedgrowth adds more useful angles to share, the kind of content that improves conversations rather than just feeding them is what makes a resource genuinely valuable in professional contexts going forward over time and across project boundaries too.

  75. Reading this confirmed something I had been suspecting about the topic, and a look at builddirectionnow pushed that confirmation toward greater confidence, content that lines up with independently held intuitions earns a special kind of trust and I will return to writers who consistently land that way for me without overselling positions.

  76. Skipped past the first paragraph thinking it was setup and had to come back when the rest referenced it, and a stop at actionclarifiesdirection similarly rewarded careful reading from the start, content where every paragraph carries weight is content I now know to read from the beginning rather than skipping ahead.

  77. The headings made navigating the post simple even when I needed to find a specific section quickly, and a look at focuscreatesleverage continued the same thoughtful structure, small details like clear headings show that someone is actually thinking about how the reader uses the page rather than just filling it for length alone.

  78. Closed three other tabs to focus on this one and never opened them again, and a stop at focusdefinesdirection similarly held attention exclusively, content that crowds out other reading from working memory is content with real density and this site has demonstrated that density across multiple pages I have visited so far this morning.

  79. Looking through the archives suggests this site has been doing this for a while at this level, and a look at forwardthinkingengine confirmed the long term consistency, sites that have maintained quality across years rather than just a recent stretch are sites with serious editorial discipline and this one has clearly been at it for a while.

  80. Easy to recommend, the content speaks for itself without needing additional praise from me, and a stop at progressmovesbydesign only adds more reasons to send people this way, the kind of generous resource that benefits its readers without demanding anything in return is increasingly rare and worth recognising clearly today across the broader open internet.

  81. Reading this with my morning coffee turned into reading the related posts with my morning coffee, and a stop at forwardenergyreleased stretched the morning further, content that pulls breakfast into a reading session rather than just accompanying it is content that has earned a higher claim on my attention than the average article does.
