Trimming The Vine (Isaiah 63:1-3)

 Mankind is like God's Vineyard.  Noah, after he exited the Ark, Noah built a vineyard.  In Luke 20:9-19, we have the Parable of the Tenant Farmers.  Mankind was like God's Vineyard.  He hired out some tenant farmers to work the vineyard for him.  These farmers were teachers of religion law, shaping how man perceives himself, and how man perceived God.   Mankind as God's Vineyard has been an allegory used through the Bible, through multiple authors.  

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 
He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.  (John 15:1,2)  

Trimming the vine may be a War, Famine, and Plague event.  There were a lot of wicked people.  There were a lot of people who rejected righteousness.  They were worthless people who produced nothing.  They were cut off. 

 He is ready to separate the chaff from the wheat with his winnowing fork. Then he will clean up the threshing area, gathering the wheat into his barn but burning the chaff with never-ending fire  (Matthew 3:12) 

Europe, and the European Christian, he went through many phases of trimming the vine.  It took a long time to build The European Christian Man.  Was someone looking to deconstruct that?  They must really hate themselves, their country, and everyone around them.  They were poison or a cancer in the body, that is, The Body of Christ or society. 

I have been aware, since 2014 or so, that God's Judgement was behind me.  I suppose that not everything was 100% set in stone, at the time.  I worked to warn people, and call people into repentance in 2014-2015.  I suppose I was very effective at what I did, and we gained a ten year reprieve.  A ten year reprieve may have been like a King of Israel repenting, and God forestalling his judgement for some time.  The Judgement is still coming.  

Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat? I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.  (Isaiah 63:1-3)

  God's Judgement has been hanging over the world like an executioners ax.  The blade is poised.  The executioner ready.  It is just a matter of when it is going to hit.
