The Winepress of the Lord --Observations about and from His winepress; emphasis on the press.

The scriptural plain of reference to help with understanding ~ 1.) Psalm 75 - Father God is Judge and chooses whom (what, how) He exalts and also He puts down. In particular verses 6-10 concerning exaltation coming from Him and the cup of wine in the Lord's wine in His hand.     2.) Jesus' parable regarding Eye of A Needle, a city gate that you had to unload your baggage to get through. Therefore, regarding reduction in the way we are called to go, from Matthew 19:24. 3.) Isaiah 64:8, "But now, O Lord, You are our Father; We are the clay, and You our potter." (NKJV)     4.) Jesus' parables about new wineskins needed for new wine. Matthew 9:17, Mark 2:22, and Luke 5:37-39. And the purification of wine being poured into containers to allow for leeds to settle. 5.) The refining of silver as indicated to us in Psalm 66:10. And also in Zechariah 13:9 prophesying of those who are to come who will walk with God. And Hebrews 12:28, because our God is a consuming fire.
