--- Quote from: newgene87 on August 15, 2012, 11:15:30 AM ---So just to add a question here; would the "chaff" "of "wheat" be in comparison to "dross" of "precious metals"??

Proverbs 25:4
Take away the dross from the silver,
and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.
--- End quote ---

Yes.

 
--- Quote ---It makes sense to me somehow I just wanna make sure it's according to truth tho. And wouldn't "tares" be part of the "wood, hay, and stubble" since all will eventually be "burned....and saved, yet as by fire??" I hope im not making it difficult, just want to be faithful an committed to thought of scripture and praying that I be guided in truth. So other than that; I pretty much got it.

--- End quote ---

Maybe. 

Wheat and tares are people.  Chaff, dross, wood, hay, stubble are what has got to come out of people.  Don't overthink what happens to the tares.  We have a God who can change water into wine and smash and refashion clay vessels into whatever He wants.  And we know what He wants.  He'll get it, even with the tares.

the truth:
Hello
Just a thought..

AS we become the fruit.the fruit...... bows down and Harvest.It falls in the ground and dies.And brings up more fruit=...disciples.We die ..He died...they die..die to self,die daily and bears the fruit.

When the tares and wheat grow up in agricultural understanding.They both look a like.As they grow up the difference is when the head of the wheat becomes mature and the wind blows the wheat bows.But the tares don't bare anything because they don't have the bud on the head which represents Messiah.And when the wind blows the tares stand proud.
