14And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.Select Luke 8:14

16No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.Select Luke 8:16

17For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.Select Luke 8:17

18Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.Select Luke 8:18
