NONE OF US=ARE TO JUDGE

NONE OF US=ARE TO JUDGE


Today we talk about
The PARABLE of the
Sower=and what KIND
Of soil we are


The important thing
To REMEMBER is that=
NONE OF US are
To JUDGE someone else


“Jesus said to them=
'Do you NOT UNDERSTAND
This parable?


Then how will
You UNDERSTAND
Any of the parables?


The sower
SOWS THE WORD'” Mark 4:13-14


What KIND OF SOIL
Are you? Hopefully you
Are LISTENING
To the WORD of God


Hopefully you are
HEARING the word of God
And UNDERSTANDING IT


“Still other seed-
Fell on GOOD SOIL


It came up=grew=and
PRODUCED a crop-
Some multiplying


Thirty=some sixty=
Some a hundred times” Mark 4:8


Hopefully that is
What we are=
But NONE of us
Are to JUDGE someone else


None of us are to judge
If we are good=
Or if the WORD
Of God takes ROOT
In us=or someone else


We can only tell
By the FRUIT
OF OUR LIVES


If we are producing FRUIT=
If we produce FOLLOWERS
For the WORD of God


“That person
Is like a tree


Planted by streams
Of water


Which yields its FRUIT
In season--------


And whose leaf
Does not wither--------
Whatever they do-prospers” Psalm 1:3


“But the FRUIT
Of the Spirit
Is love-joy-peace-
Forbearance-kindness-goodness-
Faithfulness-gentleness-
And self control” Galatians 5:22


That's the thing about
SHARING the GOOD NEWS=


None of us know
Who truly possesses
The WORD OF GOD


It can only to told
By the NUMBER
Of TRUE followers
We bring to Jesus
With our LIVES


What appears to us
To be rocky=may
BE GOOD
And vice versa


None of us are
TO JUDGE=
ONLY GOD can judge
Who is speaking=the
TRUE WORD OF GOD


“Do NOT JUDGE=or you too
Will be JUDGED” Matthew 7:1


The CONDITION of the SOIL-
Isn't for us to judge


Our job is to SOW=
IN GOD'S NAME=
And let the Lord-
Help it take ROOT


In the names of Jesus=and our ever TRUTHFUL-LOVING FATHER
