Question: Will you please explain what the Spiritual Seed is in the
Parable of the sower?
I would
like to start out by explaining "the seed" so
that my answer will make sense to you. We know that there
is a water, blood, and spirit witness. There is a seed that is
relative to each one of these witnesses, or worlds, or dimensions. The
seed relative to the water is the seed of plants, trees, grasses etc.,
they reproduce after their kind. I’m sure that you can understand
the natural perspective of the parable, but we know that Jesus was
using parabolic speech to bring us into a spiritual revelation.
The
seed relative to blood, or I could say, the physical dimension,
is the sperm seed or blood seed. It reproduces after its kind. It is
appointed for that seed to die, it is corruption. Sown in corruption
raised in incorruption. The water seed is sown into the earth. The
blood seed is sown into the earthen vessel (the woman) through the
marriage relationship.
Now, in the dimension where we let the wheat and tare grow together
for a season, if you pluck up the tare to soon you get some wheat with
it, your first man Adam or your outer garment of iniquity is relative
to the tare. God lets them grow together for a season allowing the
wheat to get a good taproot (we know that this is the dispensation of
grace). We daily deal with the tare nature by casting thoughts down
and rebuking the carnal mind; Plucking them out, daily mortifying the
deeds of the flesh. Taking up our cross daily, this is in the
realm of blood, in the soul realm, and also in the realm of
sanctification and transformation of mind. The inward man (relative to
the wheat) is growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord. Until
the tares are all plucked out and you are walking in perfection in
Christ and the old man and old natures are all swallowed up.
Lets
talk briefly about the spirit seed. It is sown into the woman in a
different dimension; It’s the bride of Christ, which was made pure
without spot, wrinkle, or blemish by the blood of Jesus Christ. The
Bible says in 1 John 3 that it is that seed that remaineth in you that
keepeth you from sin. It is that seed in the spirit realm that we are
talking about. It is coming up in the tare of the outer man. The tare
tries to choke out the wheat with its human reason of carnality, which
is enmity with God. The Bible says light being formed in darkness, the
darkness is that outer man; the light is the inner quickened spirit of
Christ. We could also go to the scripture in the book of Revelation
about the red dragon waiting to devour the child as soon as it was
born. What we have to do is differentiate dimensions to answer
questions in the Mind of Christ. We have to be able to do this, if
not, there will be many things that we will not understand about the
Word of God. The Bible says that these things have to be spiritually
discerned. I would like to say that this seed comes by entering
into the secret chamber with our Lord Jesus Christ, (marriage
relationship). I hope that these answers will help you to expand your
thinking into the mind of Christ. The Bible says, “Let this mind be
in you that was also in Christ Jesus that thought in not robbery to be
equal with God.” I could minister for hours on your questions and
expound on the mysteries of God. We are the stewards of the mysteries
of God. I pray that this will open up a mind of understanding that
will answer the question by revelation; the Bible tells us to pray
that God would grant unto you the spirit of revelation.
