Mark 4:18
It is quite understandable to assume that this group represents those who are genuinely saved, yet have been rendered ineffective. However, one must be careful here. The Scriptures give us great certainty that those who bear much fruit belong to the Lord. It does not do so with the rest, though there is the possibility ti make it ‘so as by fire’. In other words, we must respond to the Word and not be distracted, or it may be found we were not his to begin with.
