Someone planted a seed. There are also four types of land.

Someone sowed a seed.
There are also four types of land❗️.
Which type of land do you belong to…A, B, C, D…🤔❓️
…Type A is easily tempted…😨
The temptations of the world…the bird is the devil/Satan, so they are tempted by the devil/Satan👿, swept away by pleasure…🤢
The word of God doesn't take root in their hearts…they are the roadside type.
…Type B is the rocky ground type.
They believe fanatically or based on temporary emotions.
They believe in Jesus immediately, but when difficulties or persecution arise…😱
They quickly stop going to church…and stop reading the Bible…and praying…
They are easily excited and easily lose interest…their faith doesn't take root.
…Type C is the thorny type.

We hear God's word, but worldly worries and concerns about daily life...😰
This stifles God's word... and we prioritize economics over faith,
so God's word doesn't grow in our hearts.
...
Type D is the type of good soil!

We grow strong with God's word... and the fruit of the Spirit (character) or the fruit of evangelism grows 100 times, 60 times, 30 times!
...
So, which type are you...🤔?
... Our lives are surrounded by many traps of temptation...😨
... Sexual sin, pleasure, marijuana, drugs, lies, theft...etc.
... Let us listen to God's word with an open mind, obey it... and walk as good soil!
...
Shalom 😃
