Disobedience » Who is disobedient to God

For there are many disorderly persons vainly talkative, and under a spirit of delusion, especially some of the circumcised; whose mouths ought to be muzzled, who pervert whole families, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of base gain. One of them, a poet of their own nation, hath said, The Cretans are always liars, wicked beasts, slothful gluttons. read more.
This testimony is true. For which cause rebuke them with severity, that they may be sound in the faith; not attending to Jewish fables, and injunctions of men, who have turned away from the truth. All things indeed are clean to the clean: but to the defiled and to the unbelievers there is nothing clean; but their very mind and conscience are defiled. They profess to know God; but in works deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

They by the road side, are such as hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh the word from their heart, that they should not be saved in believing. And they on the rock, are such as when they have heard, with joy embrace the word; and these have not root, who for a time believe, and in a season of trial apostasize. And that which fell among thorns, are they having heard, and going away, are choked by the cares, and wealth, and pleasures of life, and bring forth no perfect fruit.
Jesus answered and said to him, If any man love me, he will observe my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not, doth not observe my sayings: and the word which ye are hearing is not mine, but of him that sent me.
