The Mustard Seed | Bible Stories

Jesus compared the kingdom of God to one of the smallest seeds on Earth and, over 2000 years later, the truth of this teaching can be seen all across the globe. What a mighty God we serve! In this video, we zoom in on this mustard seed.

You only need faith like a mustard seed (Matt 17:20), but it still needs to be greater than a speck of leaven (1 Cor 5:6-8). They will both grow and spread. Which will you choose?

[walterrelief]

Is there a seed smaller than the mustard seed that when grown is bigger than the mustard tree that can span up to 20-25ft? The answer is no. So the mustard seed is the smallest seed on earth that when sown in the earth produces the largest herb that produces great branches that the birds can nest in. It’s not just the smallest seed THEY planted back in the day, but, it’s the smallest seed that meets all the other requirements stated in the text that applies TODAY.

Christ didn’t make an absolute statement about the size of the mustard seed being the absolute smallest; but it came with qualifications of the smallest that:
1. Has to be sown in the earth.
2. Must become greater than all the herbs.
3. Must shoot out straight branches.
4. Birds must be able to nest in it.

“It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭4:31-32‬ ‭

Orchid seeds are not sown in the earth but in water and then planted in the earth. Orchid seed is not sown in earth.

Wolffia or wormwood grows on top of water and is not sown in the earth or dry land.

Poppy seeds are sown in the earth but when grown are not greater than all herbs, do not have great branches, and cannot hold birds or nests. This likewise goes for every other seed that is smaller than the mustard seed that is sown in the earth.

So this passage is literal, and scientific, whatever that means, and is in a parable, with a physical and spiritual context, and is not exaggerated hyperbole.

Christ’s words are true...literally! Read His word with reverence humility and you will have eyes to see and ears to hear. Read it with the high minded experts and you will not see...that’s what parables are for.

Yesus gagal membentuk muridnya jadi pemimpin agung di muka bumi.?

Tidak. Dia cuma Nabi .
Jika dia Tuhan pasti tiada halangan untuknya.

Dhati kab aanth hoga kisi ko malum nahi avhi vi - kal vi kisi vi somoy me ho sakta hai dhati anth hona kisi ke bas me nahi..

Let's say that mustard seed grows into a plant that catches fire in the sun, divinely reveals go you that it is the Natural God who created you perfectly. Why would you believe Moses and his senses over your own? Was Moses even a real, singular man? Or a character based on millennia of men in fables and hero stories.
