“I can’t see why you are so interested
in the negative side of things?”
Preachers are also “picture takers.”
Negative preaching is necessary to produce
a positive picture in the future – eternal future.

The tares and wheat together grow,
At harvest time angels will know,
They’ll separate good from the bad,
The tares to be burned, Oh, how sad!
Are you wheat? Do you for Christ glow? -eab, 2/2/07
Penned in eastern Ontario, Canada, while pastoring the Kingston Pilgrim Holiness Church.
