Matthew 13:7
Compare all
5 Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth; and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth.
6 But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them.
8 But others fell on good ground and yielded a crop: some aa hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.  
9 aHe who has ears to hear, let him hear!”  

The Purpose of Parables

10 And the disciples came and said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in parables?”
11 He answered and said to them, “Because ait has been given to you to know the1 mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

Matthew 13:3-9

Now think about this. When God sows the seeds of the gospel, as it says in the parable in Matthew 13:3-9, He applies the same principle, does He not? He sows the seed widely and it goes on various different kinds of ground. And usually when it goes on rocky soil, it does not do so well, but hey, there may be someone that is rocky soil that actually responds to the truth in a good way. So God uses the same principle in His own actions, at least in that case.
