1Cor 15:38 Cross References

1 Corinthians 15:38

38: Then God gives it a new body--just the kind he wants it to have. A different kind of plant grows from each kind of seed.

You cause grass to grow for the cattle. You cause plants to grow for people to use. You allow them to produce food from the earth--

The Sovereign LORD will show his justice to the nations of the world. Everyone will praise him! His righteousness will be like a garden in early spring, filled with young plants springing up everywhere.

Then God said, "Let the land burst forth with every sort of grass and seed-bearing plant. And let there be trees that grow seed-bearing fruit. The seeds will then produce the kinds of plants and trees from which they came." And so it was.
The land was filled with seed-bearing plants and trees, and their seeds produced plants and trees of like kind. And God saw that it was good.

The ones who do the planting or watering aren't important, but God is important because he is the one who makes the seed grow.

Jesus also said, "Here is another illustration of what the Kingdom of God is like: A farmer planted seeds in a field,
and then he went on with his other activities. As the days went by, the seeds sprouted and grew without the farmer's help,
because the earth produces crops on its own. First a leaf blade pushes through, then the heads of wheat are formed, and finally the grain ripens.
And as soon as the grain is ready, the farmer comes and harvests it with a sickle."
