The word of God so divine does not enter into them and does not support them so as to be blessed with the joyful fruit of virtue. Such people are like the wayside trodden upon by the defiled spirits and trampled upon by Satan himself. They therefore do not bring forth any sanctified fruits because of their stubborn and hard hearts.
