Parable of the Heart Soils

When it comes to the Thorny Heart, the thorns were already present before the message of the Kingdom was sown there. These represent anxieties, worries, cares, the seduction of wealth and interests in things other than God’s kingdom.

The thorny heart is also the cowardly heart. It holds on to what it knows, for fear that surrendering control to the Lord will forfeit the good life for a life centered on the mundane. The opposite is true of course which is the lie, this heart believes.

We only covered the anxieties, worries and cares of this life in this teaching. We will address the seduction of wealth and the lust of othe things entering in next week.

Parable of the Heart Soils

The Stony Heart is the type of Heart Soil which is unable to receive the seed of the word to any meaningful depth due to the abundance of stones riddled throughout the soil.

• WHAT are these stones?
• What kind of heart is shallow?
• What does the sun represent?

The stones are selfish interests in the BENEFITS of the kingdom without any COMMITMENT to the kingdom.

That in itself defines the heart as “shallow” as it would in any relationship.

At the first sign of opposition, affliction or persecution due to their affiliation with Christ Jesus the Stony Heart will forsake the Gospel Message.

By Request: Spiritual Warfare

Spiritual warfare is anything which challenges the advancement of God’s rule in our HEARTs.

It is only out of ignorance or laziness that we blame all our hindrances on the devil. This is no more than a sidestepping of the real issue. We do not long for and pursue intimacy with our God and THAT is our greatest enemy.

You need to hear this – NOTHING, AND I DO MEAN NOTHING, challenges the advancement of the rule of God in our hearts more than indifference!

This is why our Master made much of love!

In this lesson we cover what the New Testament tells us about satan and demons, demon possession, demonic oppression and what scripture both tells us to do and demonstrates that Jesus and the early church did in response to the devil.

I hope this teaching will serve to destroy lies, refocus attention on what the scriptures actually say and empower lives lived in honor of our Only God and Father to Whom literally belongs ALL POWER and AUTHORITY FOREVER!

As you may recall, at least two passages we have frequented since the first of the year encourage us to remember or warn against forgetting. 2Peter 1:8-14, “(8) For if these things are really yours and are continually increasing, they will keep you from becoming ineffective and unproductive in your pursuit of knowing our Lord Jesus Christ more intimately.  (9)  But concerning the one who lacks such things – he […]

Pt. 4 – Lingering Issues Tonight we are looking again at some final lingering questions we have about the Sabbath and observing it under the New Covenant.
