Luke 8:13
13And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it awith joy. But these have no root; they bbelieve for a while, and in time of testing cfall away.Romans 4:6-9
6just as David also speaks of the blessing of the one to whom God counts righteousness apart from works:7 d“Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven,
and whose sins are covered;
8blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not ecount his sin.”
9Is this blessing then only for fthe circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? gFor we say that faith was counted to Abraham as righteousness.
