The Four Grounds
R.G. Hardy
Jesus said that the Parable of the Sower, His seminal parable, holds the key to all of His teaching. We must understand its revelation in order to comprehend all other parables. The seed is the all-powerful unadulterated Word of God that was planted in four different types of soil of the human heart. Remarkably, only one type of soil, the fourth ground, produced good fruit that was permanent. That means only 25% received eternal life. And it is the third ground that is the most deceivable, because they brought forth fruit, but it did not remain. In this message, Jesus warned us of the things that choked out the good fruit and what we must do to avoid becoming the third ground.
