As temporal seeds produce after their own kind, so it is with spiritual seeds. Each produces that which is in its own image and likeness. The seeds of faith produce faith, the seeds of righteousness produce righteousness, virtue produces virtue, and so on. Conversely, meanness produces meanness, hatred produces hatred, as vanity, impurity, hypocrisy, and all other seeds germinated in darkness and sin produce after their own kind.
Those who accept the challenge to experiment upon the proposition that Jesus is the Christ do more than read and pray about him; they seek to do those things he has commanded us to do. They do his will. Then they come to know. Further, those who do the works of Christ begin to receive the fruits of Christ and acquire the nature of Christ, since every good seed brings forth fruit after its own likeness (see Moroni 7:13-16). To acknowledge, in this case, that the seed is good is to acknowledge that Jesus is the Christ, that his Church is true, and that his power and authority are held by his anointed servants.
