Two Seed and the
Harvest
- Jer 31:27 “The days are coming,”
declares the Lord, “when I will plant the house of
Israel and the house of Judah with the
offspring of men and of animals.”
God
prophesied that there will be two seeds sowed (Jer 31:27). In this verse, the
offspring of men means seed of God, and the offspring of animal means the seed
of Satan. The place that these seeds planted is the house of Israel and Judah,
the world of God’s chosen people. These promises fulfilled at the time of the
First Coming. Jesus came to the world, and he sowed the word of God to the
Israelites. Then, Jesus is the one who sowed the word of God, God’s seed, to
the world. However, something happens after Jesus sowed the God’s seed.
Let us
check out the parables of heaven that Jesus told more detail.
- Mt 13:24-30 Jesus
told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven
is like a man who sowed
food seed in his field. But while
everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat,
and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also
appeared.”
“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?’”
“
‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.
“The
servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
“‘No,’
he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the
wheat with them. Let both grow together until the
harvest. At the 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 sowed the
seed to his field, the world of Christianity. After Son of Man sowed the GOOD
SEED, the enemy sowed the weeds. Then, who is the enemy? Satan is the enemy. Satan
sowed Satan’s seed, his own laws and doctrines to Jesus’ field. Therefore, the
prophecy that God told to us was fulfilled at the First Coming.
- Mt 13:37-43 He
answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. The field
is the world, and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The
weeds are the sons of the evil one,
and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest
is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
“As
the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the age. The
Son of Man will send out his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do
evil. They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping
and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the
kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
In the parable,
the owner’s servants noticed that the weeds sowed in their owner’s field. They
asked to the owners to pull the weeds up. However, the owner just let the weeds
leave in the field until the time of harvest. Then, when is the time of the
harvest? The time of the harvest is the end of age. It does not mean the end of
the world. What is the world to Jesus? It is the world of Jesus, therefore; the
harvest starts at the end time of Jesus’ world.
What is the
result after these two seeds sowed? Good Seed became the wheat, and the weeds
are the sons of evil one. The wheat will be brought into the owner’s barn,
Jesus’ barn. However; the weed will be thrown into the fiery furnace. It just
merely small difference of seed, but the result is so tremendous. Therefore,
bearing with God’s seed is so important to the believers. Because not all
believers can go to the heaven, those who are born with the God’s seed only can
enter the kingdom of heaven.

Secret of kingdom of heaven = SEED
|
Believers who
want to enter the kingdom of heaven should be born with the God’s seed
and be brought into the barn. Then, where is the barn that we should go at the
time of the harvest. We can check it more specifically at the book of the
Revelation written about the time of the end and the prophecies in the New
Testament. At the Chapter 14 in the Revelation, there is a Mount Zion that
those who offered as firstfruits of God and the lamb gathered. Also, this
firstfuits are born with the word of truth, God’s seed (Jas 1:18). Therefore,
people who gathered in Mount Zion are born with the God’s seed, the word of
truth, and Mount Zion is the right place that God, Jesus and the spiritual
thorn in the heaven are dwell in.
Believers who
follow the word of Jesus and wish to go to the kingdom of heaven should
understand the realities of these two seeds and should be the children of God
that are born with the God’s seed so that they can be harvested to the barn at
the time of the harvest, the end of the era.
Seed is so important to us to enter the kingdom of heaven. We should know these realities.
