'Sows' in the Bible
As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.
but during the night his enemy comes, and over the first seed he sows darnel among the wheat, and goes away.
Another parable He put before them. "The Kingdom of the Heavens," He said, "is like a mustard-seed, which a man takes and sows in his ground.
The enemy who sows the darnel is *the Devil*; the harvest is the Close of the Age; the reapers are the angels.
As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.
"The sower," He said, "goes out to sow his seed; and as he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and is trodden upon, or the birds of the air come and peck it up.
But do not forget that he who sows with a niggardly hand will also reap a niggardly crop, and that he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
Do not deceive yourselves. God is not to be scoffed at. For whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
He who sows in the field of his lower nature, will from that nature reap destruction; but he who sows to serve the Spirit will from the Spirit reap the Life of the Ages.
