Sows Jesus Christ also used this imagery to illustrate various responses to the Word of God. God's people are called to sow in the hearts of humankind the seeds of God's Word. Those who tell others about Christ are like a farmer sowing seeds and watering the ground, in other words, instructing and preparing people to receive Christ as Savior. Sometimes, the seed falls on the hard - packed soil, and Satan snatches it away before it can change the person's life. Other times, the seed does "take root," leading to a healthy life in Christ. People
who sow evil and trouble will reap it. |
