THE LAWS OF SOWING AND REAPING

What does the Bible say about sowing and reaping? Actually, it is very clear and concise in the matter. In short, what we sow, is directly proportional and relative to what we reap, or vice versa. God has given certain spiritual laws for us to follow and it is up to us whether or not we are going to sow to those laws or sow to rebellion of His commandments. Although we may have an understanding of this subject, we need to know also exactly what the Bible says.
