And those who are by the way-side, where the word is sown; and when they hear it, immediately Satan comes, and takes away the word which was sown in their hearts. And those who are sowed upon the rocks are likewise, those who, when they may hear the word, immediately with joy receive it.

For many are incorrigible, speaking vain things and egotistical, especially those from the circumcision, whose mouths it is necessary to stop; who overturn whole families, teaching those things which it does not behoove, for the sake of disgraceful gain.

This testimony is true: on account of which cause convict them sharply, in order that they may be sound in the faith, not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men turning away from the truth. To the pure all things are pure: but to the corrupted and unbelieving there is nothing pure; yea, their mind and their conscience are polluted. They profess to know God, but deny him by their works, being abominable, and unbelieving, and reprobate unto every good work.

And there are those who hear by the wayside; then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, lest they believing may be saved. And those on the stones are they who, when they may hear, receive the word with joy; and they have no root in them, who believe for a time, and in time of temptation they fall away. And that which falleth among thorns, there are those who hear, and going forward, by the cares and riches and pleasures are choked out, and bring forth no fruit to perfection.
Jesus responded and said to him; If any one may love me with divine love, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and will make our mansion with him. The one not loving me with divine love does not keep my words: and the word which you hear is not mine, but that of the Father who sent me.
