The Parable of the Sower

Aeliana said:
Matthew 13:3–9
Jesus used this parable to explain to his followers and the disciples how there are different responses to the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The next parable, Matt 13:24-30 and the explanation of this parable verses 36-39 tells us first why Christ's people and the devil's people must live together here on earth, verses 27-30, and then, verses 36-39, how we came to live here...

I mention this aside because these parables are often confused together by the need to deny that the good seeds and the weeds are not created here on earth but are sown, moved, into this earth as sinners already.

While seeds are the metaphor in both parables, the seeds in the parable of the sower refer to the gospel but in the parable of the weeds they are most emphatically said to be people, either the sons of the kingdom or the sons of the evil one, verses 36-39. The claim that the good seed and the weeds refer to the gospel as it does in the preceding parable is blatantly false as a perusal of Matt 13:36-39 in an interlinear bible so easily proves...

Good Insight, I'm going to have to check that one out.
 
Will be all right as long as the FBI don't show up. I can see it now.

All right you Bible thumper put your hands on the wall. Do you mind telling us where you copied John 3:16 from? And what's this little notation here "Emphasis mine"? You're in big trouble now buddy.

be sure your sin

*Ge 44:16 And Judah said, What shall we say unto my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are my lord’s servants, both we, and he also with whom the cup is found.

*Ps 140:11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

*Is 59:12 For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them;

Ps 90:8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.

Ps 139:11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

Pr 13:21 Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repayed.

Is 3:11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.

Is 59:1-2 [1] Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: [2] But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

Ro 2:9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

1Co 4:5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

Ge 39:9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?
