One day in Mark Chapter 4, Jesus compared life to a field, people to soil, the Gospel to seed, and eternal life to a crop of harvested righteousness.
Jesus also classified everyone on Earth as either “Wayside” or The Hard Heart, “Rocky” or The Shallow Heart, “Thorny” or The Crowded Heart, or “Good” which is the Fruitful Heart.
That day, Jesus also said that God’s Word either is stolen away by birds, or God’s Word is scorched away because it is unrooted in the heart; or God’s Word is choked by the world; or finally God’s Word bursts forth supernaturally into a fruitful harvest.
In this lesson, we have come to the third of the bad responses to God’s Word.
Just as there are three degrees of fruitfulness in the good soil, so there are three degrees of fruitlessness in the bad soil.
Jesus warned of a third dangerous condition of the heart, the Crowded Heart.
