Luke 8:14

And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, (b) go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of [this] life, and (c) bring no fruit to perfection.

(b) That is, as soon as they have heard the word, they go about their business.

(c) They do not bring forth perfect and full fruit to the ripening: or, they begin, but they do not bring to an end.
