Queenttoast01: Hebrews chapter 8 King James Version
1Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; 2A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man. 3For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer. 4For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law: 5Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount. 6But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. 7For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. 8For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: 9Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. 10For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: 11And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. 12For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. 13In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away. Happy Sun-day.

Christianity Etc › Ploughing Before Planting. by Maynman(op): 4:02pm On Aug 05, 2023*. Modified: 10:34am On Oct 08, 2023 |
Sower- Middle English souere, “one who scatters seed on the ground to be grown for food”.
I once asked myself why I do this, and the answer came to me while reading Matthew chapter 13 and contemplating the parable. In Matthew 13:3, it narrates the story of a sower who went forth to sow. Note, this sower knows what he’s doing, and all his actions have a purpose. Verses 13:4–7 describe how the sower intentionally threw seeds onto unprepared land for planting. However, in verse 13:8, it mentions that the seed fell on good land. This raises the question: what makes a land good and suitable for planting?
A sower understands the prerequisites before embarking on planting. People often misconceive the first step of farming, assuming it’s merely sowing seeds. However, even before the seeds are sown for germination, we must ensure that the soil is well-prepared. This process is known as Soil Preparation.
Among the crucial steps in Soil preparation, Ploughing stands out as the primary and most important one. Ploughing involves loosening and turning the soil upside down, ensuring the availability of nutrients for the plants. Ploughing is a mandatory agricultural practice before sowing in almost all crop types. In the parable, the distinction between good land and other lands lies in the act of ploughing. Proper ploughing becomes vital for seed germination and growth, serving various purposes:
The Path: Unploughed soil can hinder seed penetration, much like a hardened path. Ploughing loosens the soil, allowing easy germination and the development of robust root systems for flourishing plants.
Rocky ground: Ploughing removes rocks, creating a favorable soil layer. Seedlings gain better access to nutrients and water, promoting healthier growth with proper aeration.
Scorching Sun: When the soil is properly ploughed, it becomes loose and aerated, allowing the seedlings’ roots to penetrate deeply and establish a strong foundation. With strong root systems, the plants can absorb water and nutrients more efficiently, making them more resilient against harsh conditions like excessive heat from the sun.
Thorns: Unploughed land can be overtaken by weeds, similar to the thorns in the parable. Ploughing controls weeds, reducing competition for resources, and allowing the planted seeds to flourish unhindered.
In Luke chapter 8, which also discusses this parable, after Jesus concluded the parable, he cried, which seem so remarkable to me, underscoring the importance of properly preparing the land before planting. When the disciples inquired about the meaning of the parable, he answered in Luke 8:11, identifying the Seed as the Word of Elohim. This illustrates that even the most potent seeds will fail to germinate if the land is not adequately prepared for planting.
The primary purpose of ploughing is to turn over the upper layer of the soil, bringing fresh nutrients to the surface. So I discovered that my reason for doing this is to plow through your mind, turning over the upper layer of your assumptions, opinions, and beliefs that have been indoctrinated into you. By doing so, I aim to help you reveal and bring out your natural, fresh, unchanging self, full of life and nutrients, untainted by preconceived notions. My goal is to make your mind a clean slate, a Tabula Rasa, as only then can the planted seed grow and bear abundant fruit.

SIRTee15: It's now I understand why intelligent Christians on this forum like TenQ don't debate with u. U deflect your mental deficiency by jumping from pillar to post whenever u caught and begin to get confused. Now that u can't prove Polycarp or any of the apostolic fathers didn't exist, u are on the validity of the gospel book. Show me the apostolic fathers were invented, no u can't. The funny thing is if I take u on the gospel books now, u will flounder and quickly find another inconsequential topic to pander about. This debate was if the apostolic fathers were real people who existed in the first century. Everything you know about apostolic father is from iranues. Who named them “5 apostolic father”? Everything you have been defending since is been argued for forgery, if not for insanity and strong ignorance, will any right thinking person be basing their lives on forgery? Why don’t you prove they exist beyond their Forged letters? All their epistles are forgery. There’s no evidence any Apostle was actually alive when Polycarp was even a schoolboy—which would have been the late 70s A.D. at the earliest, when the Apostles would have been in their late 60s or even 80s, if any were even alive at all, and we have no evidence any were. Average lifespan for an adult at that time was 48 (On the Historicity of Jesus, Element 22, Ch. 4). Not even the Martyrdom of Polycarp, which is basically a fawning eulogy of him, makes any mention of his ever knowing any Apostles or tutoring under John

Queenttoast01: Hebrews chapter 7 King James Version
1For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him; 2To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace; 3Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually. 4Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils. 5And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham: 6But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises. 7And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better. 8And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth. 9And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham. 10For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him. 11If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron? 12For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. 13For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar. 14For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood. 15And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest, 16Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life. 17For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. 18For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof. 19For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God. 20And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest: 21(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedecsmiley 22By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. 23And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: 24But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. 25Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. 26For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; 27Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself. 28For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
