The Parables

The Parable Of The Sower

Again He began to teach beside the sea. And a very large crowd gathered about Him, so that He got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole crowd was beside the sea on the land. And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said to them: “Listen! A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil; and when the sun rose it was scorched, and since it had no root it withered away. Other seed fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain. And other seeds fell into good soil and brought forth grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.” And he said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” Mark 4:1-9

Explanations

The sower sows the word. And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown; when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word which is sown in them.

And these in like manner are the ones sown upon rocky ground, who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy; and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away.

And others are the ones sown among thorns; they are those who hear the word, but the cares of the world, and the delight in riches, and the desire for other things, enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.

But those that were sown upon the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.” Mark 4:14-20

Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field."

He answered and said to them: "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one. The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels. Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear! Matthew 13:36-43

Only those who remain steadfast in doing the word of God shall inherit the kingdom of heaven.

"Therefore hear the parable of the sower: When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is he who received seed by the wayside. But he who received the seed on stony places, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy; yet he has no root in himself, but endures only for a while. For when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles. Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. But he who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty." Matthew 13:18-23

Many who attend prayers and worship pretend to be saints before the men of God, while inside the churches, ministries and fellowship. But, once they leave the house of God they forget every good teaching and turn themselves again into wolves and demons, who are heedlessly breaking every commandment of God, even so without remorse, without restraint and without repentance.

A Lamp Under A Bushel Basket

And he said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed, and not on a stand? For there is nothing hid, except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret, except to come to light. If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”

And he said to them, “Take heed what you hear; the measure you give will be the measure you get, and still more will be given you. For to him who has will more be given; and from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.” Mark 4:21-25

1. The time of perfection is the time to exalt the word of God in the midst of humanity, so that the children of God shall be saved into the kingdom of heaven.

2. It is time to seek out the true saints who know the truth and able to teach it clearly, because all the numerous churches, ministries and fellowships and their religious leaders are the deceptive handiworks of Satan, misleading souls of humanity.

3. Those who have are the ones who make use of the spiritual talents which God has given to them.

4. They include all those people who use their blessings, favours, success and prosperity to benefit both themselves and their fellow men.

5. Whoever does not render services or give necessary assistance to others, is programing his future in poverty, because “In serving others is your prosperity,” says the God Almighty.

The Parable Of The Growing Seed

And he said, “The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed upon the ground, and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he knows not how. The earth produces of itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.” Mark 4:26-29

Explanations:

1. Jesus made it known that all actions are performed by the forces of nature, by the Holy Spirit.

2. Hence, “Not by might nor by power, but by my spirit,” says the Lord.

3. Every man should make necessary efforts, and leave the rest for God Almighty, to crown his everyday efforts with success and prosperity.

4. This parable tells humanity to render services in the house of God, and perform their earthly assignments very well, because abundant blessings are waiting for such people, in heaven. The more the services your render to God and humanity, the more you rise in spiritual levels and the more your mansion in heaven transforms into bigger and better mansions with so many treasures and pleasures inside the mansion.

The Parable Of The Mustard Seed

And he said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable shall we use for it? It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade.” Mark 4:30-32

Explanations

This parable speaks about the DivineBase Ministry, The City Of The Rising Sun, the one city of refuge for humanity, which God Almighty will establish at the end of the end time. All the other churches, ministries and fellowships shall dwindle and phase out, but this DivineBase established by God shall hold sway all over the world. Even the birds of the air, the Hosts of Angels and Saints of heaven, shall delight to stay and minister in the midst of humanity. This fact was very well revealed and explained to Prophet Daniel, by Archangel Gabriel.

Ordinarily, the mustard seed refers to all kinds of ventures and development of humanity in various ways, which usually start as an insignificant entity, but eventually become world organizations, international agencies and corporate bodies.

The parable demonstrates that with faith, the children of God can accomplish many great and amazing things, if they would only have faith and persist in making the necessary efforts.
