[BIBLE STUDY GUIDE] The Figurative Seed, Field, Tree, and Bird｜INTRODUCTORY LEVEL _ 4｜SHINCHEONJI ONLINE SEMINAR

 

  We have a faith through the same book, Bible. Last time, we learned that there are figurative words in the Bible. Let's take a look at the details from today. The metaphor we will learn today is about Seed, Field, Tree and Bird. Details can be seen on Shincheonji Youtube, introductory level education. Let's take a brief at this post.

 

  What are the meaning of figurative Seed, Field, Tree, and Bird in the Bible? Let's look at the answer first.

 

Seed: God's word

Field: A person's heart or world

Tree: A person who has been reborn as a seed of word or a shepherd

Bird: Spirit

 

  Is the above answer, simply, the reason that just thinks so? Of course not. There are all basis in the Bible.

 

Matthias 13:24~30

24Jesus told them another parable: 'The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.

25But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.

26When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.

27"The owner's servants came to him and said, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?'

28" 'An enemy did this,' he replied. "The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and pull them up?'

29" 'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them.

30Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.' "

 

  Jesus said that heaven is like a person who sowed good seed in his field. He compared heaven to farming. So, did he really mean real farming? No. There is a hidden meaning.

 

Nuke 8:11

'This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

 

  Seed is the word of God. Then, how is farming heaven?

  Seed is the source of all life. First is small, but when the time comes, it grows and becomes big.

 

Mark 4:14

The farmer sows the word.

 

  Sowing is to convey the word, not real seed. To convey the word is to sow seed in the Bible.

 

  People can be reborn as imperishable seed, not perishable seed. But it is not real seed. We can be reborn as God's word.

 

John 3:3~6

3In reply Jesus declared, 'I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.'

4"How can a man be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked. "Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb to be born!"

5Jesus answered, 'I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.

6Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.

 

  Is there a advantage when we has been reborn? In above phrases, we can enter the kingdom of God by being reborn.

 

  When see 1Cor 3:9, people are called the fields of God.

 

  Jesus expressed that it is heaven in the process of people's realizing and being reborn as God's word just as seed is sowed in field and grows.

 

  For more information, refer to the Youtube. Let's all realize all the metaphors and master the Bible.
