PARABLE OF THE SOWER
IT IS FOUND IN MATTHEW 13: 18-23
SOME HEAR THE MESSAGE OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD [WHICH INCLUDES SALVATION], BUT AS JESUS SAID, THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND IT, BUT IN TIME THEY MIGHT, AS THEY LISTEN; BUT THE WICKED ONE COMES IMMEDIATELY AND TAKES THEM AWAY..... THIS IS THE ONES RECEIVING THE SEED BY THE WAYSIDE.
GOD HAS ALLOWED SATAN TO COME; THE SEED WAS NOT ABLE TO TAKE ROOT; THIS IS HAPPENING TO MILLIONS AROUND THE EARTH EVEN TO THIS DAY. THEY NEVER HAD THE CHANCE TO REALLY BE CALLED, AND CERTAINLY NOT CHOSEN. THEY WILL BE IN THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT AGE.
THEN SOME ARE AS THE SEED IN STONY PLACES....THEY HEAR AND RECEIVE IT WITH JOY. THEY HAVE NO REAL ROOT THOUGH; CERTAIN WORLDLY TRIBULATIONS AND PERSECUTIONS COME, AND..... THEY GIVE UP!
WHERE DO THEY STAND IN THE SALVATION MODE? ARE THEY LOST TO THE SECOND DEATH? I CANNOT ANSWER THAT.... ONLY GOD KNOWS IF THEY WERE REALLY CALLED TO SALVATION IN THE FIRST PLACE. ONLY TIME AND THE RESURRECTIONS WILL ANSWER THE QUESTION.
THERE IS THE SEED AMONG THE THORNS....THEY HEAR THE WORD OF GOD, BUT THE CARES OF THE WORLD CHOKE WHATEVER COULD TAKE ROOT. ARE THEY LOST AND HEADING FOR THE SECOND DEATH? AGAIN I DO NOT KNOW THE ANSWER.....AGAIN IT IS ONLY GOD WHO HAS THE ANSWER AND ONLY TIME WILL TELL.
LAST, BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT IS TO KNOW THERE ARE ONES WHO RECEIVE THE SEED ON GOOD GROUND....THEY NOT ONLY HEAR BUT THEY UNDERSTAND....AND BRING FORTH FRUIT! THEY ARE THE PRODUCTIVE CHRISTIANS THAT GO ON WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THEY HAVE, AND STAY TRUE TO THE END, BRINGING FORTH FRUIT IN THE PROPORTION AS TO WHAT THEY WERE GIVEN.
FROM OTHER TEACHINGS OF JESUS WE KNOW THESE LAST ONES, ARE THE FIRST ONES TO BE IN THE FIRST RESURRECTION AT THE COMING OF CHRIST AGAIN TO EARTH.
IF YOU ARE HEARING THE WORD OF GOD, IF YOU ARE UNDERSTANDING IT, THEN IT IS VERY LIKELY YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED AND CHOSEN, TO BRING FORTH FRUIT AND BE IN THE RESURRECTION TO GLORY AND ETERNAL LIFE, AT THE COMING AGAIN OF CHRIST JESUS.
