Matthew 13:5-6 5 Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 6 But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root
WHO WAS THE FARMER? Jesus WHAT IS THE SEEDS? God’s Word WHO IS THE SOIL? Humans WHICH SOIL ARE YOU? Hard; rocky, thorny or good
PARABLE EXPLAINED v 20 The seed falling on rocky ground refers to someone who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. 21 But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.
