Rom 10:17 (KJV) So then faith cometh by hearing, & hearing by the word of God. Mark 4:24-25 Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: & unto you that hear shall more be given. For he that hath, to him shall be given: & he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath. Luke 8:11-15 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. Those by the way side are they that HEAR; then cometh the devil, & taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe & be saved. They on the rock are they, which, when they HEAR, receive the word with joy; & these have no root, which for a while believe, & in time of temptation fall away. & that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, & are choked with cares & riches & pleasures of this life, & bring no fruit to perfection. But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest & good heart, having heard the word, keep it, & bring forth fruit with patience. — Remember be careful to HEAR, to UNDERSTAND, to KEEP & to Bring forth fruit!
