马太福音第十三章第8节从耶稣的这句话里可以看出，门徒们听明白了耶稣的道就会结果子，有的结的多，有的结的少，但不论结的多或少都是好地好土。正像雅各书所说，信心有了行为（即果子）就不是死的。
太13:8 又有落在好土里的、就结实、有一百倍的、有六十倍的、有三十倍的。
Others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
太13:23 撒在好地上的、就是人听道明白了、后来结实、有一百倍的、有六十倍的、有三十倍的。
What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty."
