Bible Question: harvest time what is meant |
Bible Answer: Nikki Watson: The Lord Jesus in his time said "the fields are white unto harvest" We see in the verses below that both he that sows and he that reaps both rejoice at the fruit of the harvest. "Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth" (John 4: 35-37) In 1 Cor. 3:6 Paul reminds us of this principle: "I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase" The time of planting and harvest is now "behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation." (2 Cor. 6:2) The Holy Spirit of God is who works up the soil of our heart to prepare us for the seed of the gospel. However, God by his grace has choosen his people to spread and water the word. More importantly it is only God who can gives the increase. Robert |
