What does it mean to be “wholehearted” in the things of God? What does it mean to live and walk in the Spirit wholeheartedly? What does it mean to pray and believe with all your heart?

Here is my answer …

Is Revelation really a prediction of future events, or is it a postdiction of what had already happened in history? Is it a vaticinium ex eventu, a historical record of what had already happened in AD 70, framed as a yet-to-be-fulfilled prophecy? Is it about the future return of Christ to establish the kingdom of God on earth, or is it actually a series of teachings to teach us moral values and social activism?

What, however, constitutes a seed? Here are the 9 things the Bible speaks of as seeds.

Is the principle of sowing and reaping biblical? Isn’t it just a means of fund-raising and manipulating people to give? Doesn’t it promote greed and materialism, leading to an unhealthy focus on earthly wealth? Doesn’t it promote a “transactional” relationship with God?
