What the Bible says about light and seed

The True Light "In him, (the Lord Jesus) was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world,…the world didn’t recognize him." John 1:4,9.

The Good Seed and the Weeds “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seeds in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. Matthew 13:24,25.

The Best Study Method

The Best Study Method
Jack Kelley. http://gracethrufaith.com/ask-a-bible-teacher


Q. I have been following you for such a long time; and finally decided to ask a question I’ve long wondered about. You have become such an expert on answering scripture related questions; and I trust and respect your wisdom. Would you share with me the technique (method) you find most helpful in studying the Word? I’ve tried several methods and have lots of reference books, but still don’t seem to have a handle on the best way. I, too, believe time is short; and I want to learn all I can while I’m still here.

A. I don’t subscribe to any organized method of study. I think they’re too structured and can turn something that should be fun into drudgery. From the beginning I let the Holy Spirit direct me in my studies and went wherever I thought He was taking me. This resulted in my study always being an exciting journey of discovery. I’m like a dog sniffing a rabbit trail, going where ever it leads me without a thought for how random or circuitous it seems. The Holy Spirit was sent to be our teacher (John 16:13-15) and has a plan uniquely tailored for each of us. I’m following the plan He has for me.
