Luke 8:14-15

Luke 8:14-15
Worry is a Thorny Way to Live

• Life’s Worries
• Life’s Riches
• Life’s Pleasures

Hearing is NOT the Same as Believing

• Hear the Word
• Retain the Word
• Persevere in the Word

The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.

Jesus Developed a Very Practical (and Literary) Metaphor in the Seeds and Soils Parable
