THE SEED, THE WORD OF GOD

THE SEED--THE WORD OF GOD

Jesus told a parable to His disciples one day. He told them (Lk 8:4-15) about seeds falling on different kinds of ground.

The emphasis was on the seed, and what it would do if given a chance. He was showing them that seed is to the ground what the Word of God is to the heart of men.

Motives sown in the heart create actions.

Divine Motives create Divine Life.

A burning conviction creates a shining life.

The Word, unhampered, will always produce fruit (life).

The soil does not change the seed, except to develop it.

The seed performs the miracle. It changes dust into fruit.

Fruit is Scripture reproduced in Life.
