About The Seed Church

Jesus compared himself to a grain of wheat that falls into the earth and dies in John 12:24. He said this to foreshadow His death on the cross and His resurrection from the dead. Just as a seed falls into the earth and grows into new life, Jesus was crucified, buried and raised from the dead to plant new life in God’s people.

Jesus told a parable about throwing seed on four types of soil. All the seed was the same, but only one of the four soils produced a crop. This parable, found in Mark 4:1–20, is about the power of God’s Word to transform lives and raise up disciples of Jesus.

In Matthew 13:37–38 Jesus teaches that every Christian is a seed God plants into the world. We can’t change ourselves into Christians because only God can awaken us to new life in Him through faith in His Son, Jesus.

“Yet I planted you a choice vine, wholly of pure seed.” (Jeremiah 2:21) God is on a mission to redeem the world, and His chosen vehicle for completing this mission is the local church. God calls His people into the church for His glory and the good of all people.

Jesus teaches that the Kingdom of God is like a seed. In Mark 4:30–32, Jesus says the mustard seed is very small, but once it grows, it is very large. In the same way, although it may appear small at times, God’s kingdom will fill the universe when Jesus returns to gather His people and judge the world.
