The rocky places that do not have much earth signify the heart that is shallow in receiving the word of the kingdom, because deep within are rocks--hidden sins, personal desires, self- seeking, and self-pity--which frustrate the seed from gaining root in the depth of the heart.

The good earth [Matt. 13:23] signifies the good heart that is not hardened by worldly traffic, that is without hidden sins, and that is without the anxiety of the age and the deceitfulness of riches.

In this parable we see that Christ establishes the kingdom of the heavens not by fighting or teaching, but by sowing Himself as the seed of life into believing people so that the kingdom of the heavens may grow up. The establishment of the kingdom of the heavens is absolutely a matter of growth in life.

Beside the way [Matthew 13:4] is the place close to the way. Because it is hardened by the traffic of the way, it is difficult for the seeds to penetrate it. This kind of wayside signifies the heart that is hardened by the worldly traffic and does not open to understand, to comprehend, the word of the kingdom.

It is important to understand accurately the meaning of stewardship. The Greek word rendered stewardship here, oikonomia, is the same word rendered economy [dispensation

We do not need regulations or teachings-we need to be infused and saturated with Christ as the all-inclusive One.

This Christ is already in us, but we need to see Him, know Him, be filled with Him, be saturated with Him, and become absolutely one with Him.

Through Christ, God has been brought into us, and we have been brought into God. Praise Him for such a mingling! When we were born again, simultaneously Christ was born into us, and we were brought into God.

As the Son of God, Christ has passed through two births. The first birth took place at His incarnation, and the second, in His resurrection. Through the two births of Christ, divinity has been brought into humanity, and humanity has been brought into divinity. Now, through Christ's resurrection, man has been brought into God. What a transaction! What marvelous two-way traffic!

Christ is the firstborn of all creation. This means that in creation Christ is the first. Christ as God is the Creator. However, as man, sharing the created blood and flesh (Heb. 2:14), He is part of the creation.

How long will the light of a candle last? Of course, the light will go out when the candle burns out. But if we light another candle with this one, the light will double in intensity. When the Son of God was on earth, he lit the first candle. After that, more candles were lit one after another Until today more candles more shining.

The mystery concerning Christ and the church had been hidden from eternity and from all times until the New Testament age,

when it was manifested to the saints, the believers in Christ. Today we focus our attention upon Christ as the mystery of God and upon the church as the mystery of Christ.
