31 Another illustration he set before them, saying: The kingdom of the heavens is like a mustard
grain [doctrine, grain is eaten], which a man took and planted in his
field [the true church, the sons of the ICC];
32 which is, in fact, the tinier/tiniest of all the seeds [the
smallest number of saints in the church period - not when sown - during the time
the doctrine, the grain, is being developed], but when it has grown it is the
larger/greater [comparative not superlative]
of the vegetables [the largest church of its
time] and becomes a tree [the
Kingdom of God], so that the birds of heaven come and find lodging among its
branches [the 13 tribes] (Matthew 13 NWT).

31 Like a mustard grain, which at the time it was sown in the
earth was the tinier/tiniest of all the seeds [smallest
number of saints before the church is raised up] that are on the earth
[the true church congregation] --
32 but when it has been sown, it comes up [the
mountain is raised by fire signs and by the descended 1NC princes] and becomes greater than all other vegetables
[greater in understanding than the other
churches for a period. The other true churches are shown up as being
rather brain dead] and produces great branches [1NC
Tribes of which they were completely unaware. the angels must have assigned them
to tribes], so that the birds of the heaven are able to lodge under its
shadow [but did not find consciously go into
any tribe. And the tree prevented the light of God from reaching them. Actually
this vegetable took the light of God away from the birds. The Watchtower
deliberately kept the saints in the dark]. (Mark 4 NWT)

19 It is like a mustard grain [ that a man took and put in his
garden [Israel - in the promised land], and it grew and became a tree, and the birds of heaven took up lodging in its branches. (Luke 13 NWT)
Grains are eaten Seeds are planted.

nigra, Black Mulberry (Sycamine-tree), 20 He said to them: Because of your little faith. For truly I say to you, If you have faith the size of a mustard grain, you will say to this mountain [of the 1NC reserves in the Watchtower], 'Transfer from here [The Watchtower] to there [to Zoar],' and it will transfer, and nothing will be impossible for you. (Matthew 17 NWT) 6 Then the Lord said: If you had faith the size of a mustard grain, you would say to this black mulberry/Sycamine tree [Laodicea, the 2NC seeds are initially red (on spirit baptism), then go black when ripe, since they represent rotten unsealed 2NC saints, who lose their angels and do not shed light on anyone. They absorb light from FDS4 and refuse to re-emit it.], 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea!' [lose your water baptism - no root to get more water - and become a false church - they accept this] and it would obey you. (Luke 17 NWT)
