A ground, to be fertile for planting, requires certain characteristics. What makes a ground fertile for plants? What makes a ground fertile for spiritual seeds?

Sermon Notes

A short set of notes:

ON FIRE for the TRUTH for a short period of time.
NO DEEP Roots... No strength of conviction.

So, HOW DEEPLY do we understand and GRASP the Truth??
Would the TRUTH be safe with you? What would you do with it?

1Ti 6:17  Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

Mar 4:20  And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.

1-show forth love one for another John 14:35
2-Use, show fruits of the spirit ... all nine
3-show dedication serving God and the brethren = leading others to be disciples. FIRST, we must be...
4-receive those being called without doubtful disputations.... give them the opportunity to hear and discern by themselves first.  STICK WITH THE TRUNK OF THE TREE... do not go out to the edges of the limbs... that is where the "nuts" are.  Rom. 14:1
5-Demonstrate Faith during trials and challenges.
6-Do NOT share too much with someone brand new. Give opportunity for seeds planted to spring up and gain strength. DO NOT OverLOAD a newcomer.

We must make sure we are FERTILE GROUND... {{WHAT IS FERTILE GROUND???}}
