The Parable of the Sower and Wealthy Affiliate

Jesus told a story about a sower of seeds and then he explained it thus.

18 ¶ Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
19 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 wayside.
20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
21 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.
22 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.
23 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 a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Mk. 4.13-20 · Lk. 8.11-15 KJV Bible

Lets try that with our situation at WAU:

18 ¶ Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower of affiliate marketing training.

19 When any one heareth the word on affiliate marketing training, and understandeth it not, then cometh the gurus, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received the word on affiliate marketing by the wayside.

20 But he that received the seeds of Internet marketing into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
21 yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when road blocks ariseth requiring action on his part, by and by he withers away.

22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word on Internet marketing; and the care(s) of this world, and the deceitfulness of get-quick-riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

23 But he that received the seeds of Internet marketing training into the good ground is he that studies the tutorial(s), and understandeth it (them); which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

So, there it is! It’s in the Bible!

Well, almost.
