A Sifter Needed for the Sake of the Truth
Matthew 3:12
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner…


Realize, too, that the sifting work must be done not only for the truth's sake and for God's sake, but for the sake of the foolish people themselves — for the welfare of the world. Otherwise the world, cheated by the delusion, would go from bad to worse, and be deluded to destruction.
