The Parable of the Soils – Social media Remix…

a Remix of the Parable found in Matthew 13:3-23

The Social Media Story

Once upon a time, a social media user went out to share their posts. As they scrolled through their feed, some of the content caught their attention, while others did not. The user was like a seed tossed onto different types of social media soil.

The first type of soil was shallow and rocky. The seed landed there, but it didn’t take root. The user shared their post on this platform, but no one engaged with it, and it received no likes, comments, or shares.

The second type of soil was full of thorns and weeds. The seed grew, but the thorns choked it, and it withered away. The user posted on a platform that was full of negativity and controversy, and the posts got lost in the noise of arguments, and the attention of the audience was consumed by the drama.

The third type of soil was good soil, and the seed grew and produced abundant fruit. The user shared some posts on a platform that was supportive, where people were kind, and encouraging. The posts were shared, they received likes, and people engaged with them.

Just as Jesus explained the parable of the soils to his disciples, social media users need to understand what types of platforms are conducive to their content, and which ones will not yield any fruit. The good soil is the optimal social media landscape where posts can take root and grow, always remember that content is likelier to prosper when it’s shared on social media platforms where positivity, support, and encouragement are the norm.

the Original Parable found in Matthew 13:3-23 (KJV)

And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow; And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them: But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them. Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side. But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
