JESUS IS THE LIVING WORD
According to John 1:1 is Jesus the Living Word.
The best and easiest application to teach and explain this concept was to look at the Parable of the Sower. Sunflower seed was used as an example to illustrate the multiplying of the seed (30, 60, 100 X).
The soil is compared to the heart, and we have the choice to listen and accept His Word (Jesus).
