*** The seeds can't grow or produce a harvest if it sit on the shelf. The sowers have to plant the seeds in the ground/hearts of men and women then God and Christ give life in the seeds and it produces great harvest/eternal life. Can you quote from the gospels what Jesus said about human sowers? ** In Matthew 13 Jesus Christ the perfect True example of a good sower... And his servants are to follow his example as a good Sower by sowing TRUE gospel Message and NOT to sow tares/poisonous false seeds/teachings. Paul wrote in I Cor. 3:6-7 I planted the Seed and Apollo watered the Seed but God makes it grows. So, neither he who plants or waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow.

Luk_19:22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: Read: If the master didn't sow it then the servants must have.... Then there is this: Mar_16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. If preaching ain't sowing then what is it?

There is a pattern, Last week it was "I" that saved souls, now its the "followers" that save soul's.... So I ask again, what do you need Jesus for, you save souls, the followers save souls, whats Jesus do? and bench warmer?..... *** The true believers are sowers of the gospel seeds in the hearts men and women, but it's Christ give them LIFE or Eternal life and God gives in the increase. The seeds are useless when it left sitting on the shelves! The gospel seed has to be shown in the ground/hearts for it to germinate or come to life and to produce a great harvest. Jesus did the impossible part died on Calvary Cross to pay for our sins! So, our souls can enter heaven after death. That was Jesus sent out the 12, 70 and more sowers in the book of Acts and through out the centuries. After Jesus ascended back to heaven he asked the apostles and His followers to keep on sowing the gospel seeds to the time of His return read Matthew 28:18-20 The great Commission. No Nathan, you said, I SAVE SOULS and FOLLOWERS(2X2'S) SAVE SOULS!. So what's Jesus do as you have just out him out of a job regardless of ones understanding of a saved soul..... Happy for you to change your statements but that is what you said......

The idea behind spreading the gospel is about demonstrating it and not announcing with words before demonstrating it.....so if you cant announce it your idea of preaching, sowing or demonstrating it is null and void because it is all founded on traditions and rituals, take them away and you have nothing to announce or demonstrate........... It would pay to look being the creeds....

God sees and Knows the heart and their motives. God doesn't look only the outward appearances what people see, but He looks within their hearts that ONLY He KNOWS.

You think that is your place to judge !? Look into your own mirror
The Bible warns judgmental people that they will be judged by the same measure with which they judge others (Matthew 7:2). Deuteronomy 1:17 suggests that judgment belongs only to God, not to humans. Rather than being judgmental, the Bible instructs people to have compassion and empathy for others (Ephesians 4:32) Don't pass judgment. If you find yourself being judgmental, stop yourself. ...Understand. Instead of judging someone for what he's done or how he looks, try instead to understand the person Accept. Once you begin to understand, or at least think you kind of understand, try to accept. ...

You think that is right? Are you a hypocrite and a judgmental person.
