There are many wonderful lessons we can learn from the law of sowing and reaping. Jesus and the Apostles used them in their teachings during their time and are recoded in the Holy Bible for our learning and practice. "Whatever we sow that is what will reap" They were using these illustrations (parables) to teach us how to live in peace with one another and with God, and also to warn us of the consequences when we fail to do so.
Natural law of sowing and reaping
Natural law tells us that if we sow orange seeds, orange trees will sprout out. And from one orange tree, we will reap dozens of orange fruits and hundreds of orange seeds. That orange tree will only produce orange fruits and orange seeds, and not apples or apple seeds.
This law applies to our moral and spiritual lives as well. The Bible says,
"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows" (Galatians 6:7).
