Mark 4:14-20
The farmer sows the word.The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes, and takes away the word which has been sown in them.These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.They have no root in themselves, but are short- lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.”

But let each man be careful how he builds on it.For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or stubble,
