As the rain and snow come
down from heaven.
And water the earth andbring forth its fruit.
So shall be the Word that
You are speaking.It shall not return empty to You.
It shall accomplish Your desire.
It will surely succeed.
Your Word transforms the desert
and Your Word is changing me

Jesus gave parables and these arethings, mysteries that we need to
understand.
A mystery in the bible is a truth that you
cannot know apart from divine
revelation. In the bible a mystery is a
truth that you cannot comprehend withyour mind alone.

You would have to understand it by

The Beginning of the
Kingdom (Matt. 13:1-9, 18-23)
The Parable of the Sower does not
begin with The kingdom of heaven islike because it describes how the
kingdom begins.

It begins with the preaching of the
Word, the planting of the seed inthe hearts of people.
When we say, Let me plant thisthought in your mind, we express the
idea of this parable.

The seed is Gods Word; the various
soils represent different kinds ofhearts; and the varied results show
the different responses to the Word of
God

The parable of the sower Four kinds of soil:
1. The impenetrable.2. The superficial.
3. The preoccupied.
4. The prepared.

The parable of the SOWER1. The CARELESS hearer.
2. The TEMPORARY hearer.3. The WORLDLY-MINDED hearer.
4. The SINCERE hearers of the Word.
(1) They understand it;
(2) They receive it;(3) They retain it:
(4) They practise it. G. Bu rder

Observation:1. The seed is the same in every case; the
difference is in the kinds of soils.2. The parable is Christs answer to the
objection, If the gospel be from God,
why is it not more effective? The
answer is, that, like any other remedy,much will depend on the way in which
it is used. (The Clergymans Magazine.)

Parable of the SOWER
Where is the fault of failure?
1. It does not lie in God, the sower. God
does not predestinate men to fail.
He willeth not the death of a sinner.2. The cause of failure is not in any
impotency of truth (but in the SOIL).

The SOWER and the SOILS
(Mark 4: 1-20)This parable helped the disciples understandwhy Jesus was not impressed by the large
crowds that followed Him.
He knew that most of them would neverproduce fruit from changed lives, because
the Word He was teaching them was like
seed falling into poor soil.
-
7/28/2019 Reveal Week 1 _ Parable of the Soil at His Life
32/59
The SEED represents Gods Word
(Luke 8:11) and the SOWER is the servant
of God who shares that Word with others
(see 1 Corinthians 3:5-9).
-

The human heart is like SOIL:
it must be prepared to receive the seed before
that seed can take root and produce a harvest.
Like seed, the Word is alive and able to produce
spiritual fruit, but the seed must be planted and
cultivated before that harvest will come. As in
that day, so today, there are FOUR KINDS ofHEARTS and they respond to Gods message
in FOUR DIFFERENT WAYS.

In MARK CHAPTER 3, Mark records 4 responses
to JESUS:
1) The Pharisees who wants to KILL Him and
accuse Him of being demon-possessed!
2) The Crowd SEEKS him out a s a miracle worker
to be employed for the purposes.
3) His family concerned that things are getting outof hand and thinks he is mad.
4) Some people sit at His feet to listen and practice
his teaching.

THE HARD HEART
(Mark 4:4, 15) resists the Word of God and
makes it easy for Satan (the birds) to snatch
it away.
Soil becomes hard when too many feet
tread on it. Those who recklessly open theirhearts to all kinds of people and influences
are in danger of developing hard hearts
(see Proverbs 4:23)
-
7/28/2019 Reveal Week 1 _ Parable of the Soil at His Life
36/59
THE HARD HEART
Hard hearts must be plowed up before they
can receive the seed, and this can be a
painful experience (Hosea 10:12).

THE SHALLOW HEART(vv. 5-6, 16-17).
This heart is like thin soil on a rock, very typical toPalestine. Since there is no depth, whatever is
planted cannot last because it has no roots.
This represents the emotional hearer who
joyfully accepts Gods Word but does not reallyunderstand the price that must be paid to become
a genuine Christian.

There may be great enthusiasm for several
days or weeks; but when
persecution and difficulties begin, the
enthusiasm wanes and the joy disappears.
It is easy for fallen human nature to
counterfeit religious feelings and give aprofessed Christian a feeling of false
confidence.

To change the image, this person wants to
walk the broad way and the narrow way
at the same time (Matthew 7:13-14); and it
cannot be done.

THE FRUITFUL HEART
(vv. 8, 20).
This heart pictures the true
believer, because fruita
changed lifeis the evidence of
true salvation(2 Corinthians 5:17;
Galatians 5:19-23).
-
7/28/2019 Reveal Week 1 _ Parable of the Soil at His Life

The other three hearts produced no fruit, so
we conclude that they belong to persons
who have never been born again.
Not all true believers are equally as
productive; but from every genuine
Christians life, there will be some evidenceof spiritual fruit.

Each of the three fruitless hearts is influenced by a
different enemy:
the hard heartthe devil himself snatchesthe seed;
the shallow heartthe flesh counterfeitsreligious feelings;
the crowded heartthe things of the worldsmother the growth & prevent a harvest.

These are the three great
enemies of the Christian:
the world, the flesh, and the devil
(Ephesians 2:1-3).

I picked up a gardening book the other day
and go t some good advice:
Take care of the soil, and dont worry about
the plants. If the soil is good, the seed will
take root and grow.
