I.   THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER (4-8).<\/p>\n

1. The sower.<\/p>\n

2. The soils.<\/p>\n

II.  THE REASON FOR THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER (9-10).<\/p>\n

1. The disciples’ question.<\/p>\n

2. The reasons:<\/p>\n

1) Fulfill prophecy: Psa. 78:2; Isa. 6:9-10;<\/p>\n

2) Clarify for believers;<\/p>\n

3) Conceal from infidels;<\/p>\n

4) Provide illustrations for contemporary preachers.<\/p>\n

III. THE LORD’s EXPLANATION OF THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER (11-15).<\/p>\n

1. The seed is the Word of God, Luke 8:11.<\/p>\n

2. Sower of no eternal consequence, 1 Cor. 3:5-9.<\/p>\n

3. Soils:<\/p>\n

1) Wayside – the hardbeaten path.<\/p>\n

2) Rocky – pathetic situation of shallowness like so many people today.<\/p>\n

3) Thorny — materialism, so prevalent and rampant in our day.<\/p>\n

4) Good:<\/p>\n

a. 2\/3 of the earth’s surface is covered with water;<\/p>\n

b. Only 10% of available land area is cultivated (such a small amount produces so much because of soil fertility);<\/p>\n

c. The good soil produced, some thirty, some sixty and some 100 fold.<\/p>\n

4. Every person’s heart is what he\/she chooses it to be and Jesus expressed “honest and good” in relation to the fruit produced when God’s word enters that heart!<\/p>\n
