The Parable Of The Sower
Contributed by Polimetla Joy on Jan 30, 2023 (message contributor)
In this parable, Jesus teaches about the importance of having a receptive heart to receive the word of God. He explains how the seed (word of God) can fall on different types of soil, representing different hearts. Some seed falls on the wayside, representing those who hear the word and do not understand it, some falls on rocky ground representing those who receive the word with joy but later fall away, some falls among thorns representing those who hear the word but let worldly cares choke it, and some falls on good soil, representing those who hear the word and understand it, bearing fruit with perseverance. This parable teaches us the importance of having a receptive heart to receive and understand the word of God and to bear fruit with perseverance.
