'Sowing and Reaping' Summary

Using the parable of the sower, Moody presents a clear and compelling exposition of the consequences of our actions. He shows that we cannot escape the law of sowing and reaping. We will reap what we sow, whether good or evil. Moody challenges us to examine our lives and see if we are sowing to the flesh or to the Spirit. He warns that if we sow to the flesh – if we live according to our sinful nature – we will reap corruption and death. But if we sow to the Spirit – if we live according to God's will – we will reap life everlasting. Moody's message is clear: we must choose carefully what we sow, because we will reap the consequences.
