Every one hearing the word of the kingdom, and not understanding it, the wicked one comes, and seizes away that which is sown in his heart: he is the one sown by the wayside. But the one sown upon the rocks, is he who heareth the word, and immediately with joy receives it; but it has no root in him, but is temporary; and tribulation or persecution arising on account of the word, immediately he is offended. read more.
But the one sown among the thorns, is he who heareth the word; and the care of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke out the word, and he becomes unfruitful.

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. And they have no root in themselves, but are temporary; then tribulation or persecution arising on account of the word, they are immediately offended: read more.

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. A certain one of them, their own prophet, said, The Cretans are all liars, evil beasts, slow stomachs. read more.
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 responding He said to them, Beautifully did Isaiah prophesy concerning you hypocrites, as has been written, This people honor me with lips, but their heart is far from me.

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.

Where is the wise man? where is the scribe? where is the investigator of this age? has not God rendered the wisdom of the world foolishness? For since in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, God was pleased through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe. Since indeed the Jews ask for miracles, and the Greeks seek after wisdom; read more.
but we preach Christ having been crucified, to the Jews indeed a stumbling block, and to the Gentiles foolishness; but to you who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

For the word of the cross is foolishness indeed to those who are lost; but to those who are saved it is the power of God. For it has been written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nought the understanding of the intelligent. Where is the wise man? where is the scribe? where is the investigator of this age? has not God rendered the wisdom of the world foolishness?

Let no one deceive himself. If any one seems to be wise among you in this age, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it has been written. He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. read more.
