For land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God. But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned. Hebrews 6:7-8. According to the Prophetic imagery of the OT, the ground is God’s people, and the rain falling on it is the word or the Spirit of God. The unproductive field is destroyed. Today, many claim to be a Christian. You cannot simply believe that there is a “God”, or a “higher power.” Because you attend church once a week, have a Christian radio station set on your car radio to listen to once in a while, and where a cross around your neck because it looks good. Doesn’t qualify among those things that God receives as honoring Him. Confession, submission, and obedience are the first steps…And they produce in you a cultivated life that produces a crop useful in His service and honorable in His sight!
