Mark 4:1-20

"Even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing. In their case the
god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the
light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the likeness of God."
2 Corinthians 4:3–4

What can we learn?
1. Sow the Word of God liberally.
2. Don’t be discouraged by disbelief.
3. Focus on being faithful, not fruitful.

"Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also
reap." Galatians 6:7

We reap what we sow; we reap more than we sow; we reap later than we sow.
