Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

The grain represents the sons and daughters of Israel, regardless of their spiritual status.

No it doesn't. It represents the righteous, who do not fall, in contrast to the sinners, who die by the sword in verse 10.

Jude
24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy

 

[CadyandZoe]

No it doesn't.

God is talking about allowing his people Israel to be taken into exile. They will go into exile together and come out of exile together.

But don't miss the essential point here. God is able to distinguish his people by their race, even if human beings can't. Once again, people are using scientism to support ideas and concepts that aren't true or relevant.

The righteous grain will not fall and will be preserved. The unrighteous sinners will die by the sword.

God distinguishes the righteous from the unrighteous.

God is not a racist.

You might as well stop trying to contort Him into one.
