Greetings and welcome to the forum. In this parable Jesus is teaching us the importance of having a receptivity of the heart. The sower is anyone who teaches or preaches about Jesus. This includes even the newest Christian telling someone else about Christ. The seed is the word or the gospel. There are 4 different types of soil. The first is the wayside soil. This represents the person with a closed heart. The birds that peck the seeds out of the soil are the cares of the world. The stony soil is when the word is heard but it does not take route. The person does not count the cost of walking with Christ. The soil with the thorns is the most deceptive of all. The seed takes root but it bears no fruit. It is choked out by the cares of the world. It represents the preoccupied person. Their devotion is minimized by distractions, there just doesn't seem to be enough time to pray or read the bible. The weeds roots of pleasures and cares have cholked out the true seed before it can develop and and produce fruit. The last soil is the good soil. This is the person who hears the word and bears fruit. Some thirty fold (the wone that is saved but only half-heartedly), some sixty-fold (bearing fruit but without complete obedience) and one hundred fold (complete obedience to God). Hope this helps, prayon |
