The Good Seed
(Mt13:24-30, 36-43)
God is the true God (Jer10:10).
His nature does not change, and
The word and the Son who come from Him are also true (Jn15:1; 1Pe1:25).
Faith is receiving this fact as-is, and
The life of this faith is preserving the true word and multiply it.
A seed has a secret principle:
It has life; it does not change; its shape does not vary; and when it is sown it increases.
The fate of a seed is
Whether it will be eaten or sown.
Deceived by the serpent
Adam sinned (Ge3:4-5) and was banished from the Garden
To work the ground from which he was taken (Ge3:23),
Becoming familiar with the principle of the seed.
To Abram who believed God's promise to be true and left his home country (Ge12:1),
God gave the seed as a reward when he was childless and
Promised him descendants as many as the stars in the sky (Ge15:3-6, 17:14-16).
The Law commanded the Israelites to not plant two kinds of seeds in a vineyard (Dt22:9), and
God expected them to become a choice vine of sound and reliable stock (Jer2:21) for
They were the people who bore the seed of the true word of God.
The sanctuary where the stone tablets were
Reminded them this.
When it was time, the Son of God, Jesus came
Born of a woman, under the Law, the incarnate Word (Jn1:14; Gal4:5), and
He said, "Destroy this temple and I will raise it again in three days (Jn2:19), because
Through the death and the resurrection of the temple of His body,
He would fall to die to produce many seeds of souls (Jn12:24) and
Give His flesh as the true food and the His blood as the true drink for all souls (Jn6:55).
As He died, Jesus said, "It is finished (Jn19:30), declaring that:
The Father alone is the true Gardener who sowed the good seed in His field (Mt13:24; Jn1:11, 15:1);
Condemned the father of lies, the devil, who sowed false seeds (Jn8:44; 1Jn3:8); and
Sprinkled His blood, the imperishable seed, so that men can be born again (Mt13:37; 1Pe1:23).
The Father raised Him, and
His resurrection was God's first harvest that would go into the eternal barn (1Co15:20).
The Holy Spirit came to
Deliver the true gospel, the name Yeshua, the good seed (Ac1:3), and
Lets those who received the good seed reap many fruits.
At the end of the world,
The wheat will enter the barn (Mt3:12)
While the weeds, those who received altered gospel (Mt13:40), and
The chaff, those who lost the word (Mt3:12), will
Be thrown into the eternal lake of fire with the devil (Mt13:42, 25:41).
The man of the Spirit is he who
Hears the word and receives it as-is, and
Only testifies the name Yeshua, the gospel of blood,
Trusting that those who sow will receive seed and food together (Is55:10; 2Co9:10), for
He longs to enter the eternal barn as wheat
When the Lord returns.
O Lord,
Have I received the good seed?
Or am I chaff?
O Lord,
Let me and all You have given me
Not fall to the ground
But rather be found as wheat and go before You in that day!
Amen.
