Mark 4:26-29 - Homilies By A.f. Muir

The seed cast upon the earth; or, the self-development of truth in the heart of man.

I. THERE IS A PRE - ESTABLISHED HARMONY BETWEEN THE TRUTH AND HUMAN NATURE . The seed left in the soil germinates because of the mutual adaptation; so the Word of God.

II. THE WORD OF THE KINGDOM HAS AN INNATE POWER OF DEVELOPMENT . Under the appointed conditions it is bound to grow.

III. GOD DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH IT OR REMOVE IT UNTIL IT HAS PRODUCED ITS FRUIT .

1 . It is left to the law of gradualness . First "the blade," etc.

2 . It is taken account of and judged in its final r esult.—M.
