<h2>461. TWO SIFTINGS</h2>
|
|
<p>1. <b>Subtleness.</b> "Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat" (<a id="fem461-si1" onclick="return mV('Luk',22,31);">Luk 22:31</a>). Satan sifts to get rid of the wheat. Beware of the Devil's riddle.</p>
|
|
<p>2. <b>Searching.</b> "I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth" (<a id="fem461-si2" onclick="return mV('Amo',9,9);">Amo 9:9</a>). The Lord will bring Israel to Himself yet, but we may apply this to ourselves now. The Lord puts us in the sieve of chastisement, the sieve of trial, the sieve of humiliation, the sieve of difficulty, the sieve of disappointment, the sieve of persecution, and the sieve of wake-up-edness. What for? To get rid of the wheat? No; but to get rid of the chaff of pride, worldliness, sloth, and unbelief.</p>
