From “Discipleship and Discipline” by William H. Hicks, copyright March, 2005:
“No dead thing bears fruit. It cannot pass on its life, either as a seed planted to generate new fruit, or as nourishment for one who “hungers and thirsts”. As disciples of Christ, we are charged also to multiply ourselves. The same seed is used in each instance: The Word of God. The same fertilizer is also used in each instance: careful obedience to the Word of God.”
