For there will come a time when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, because they have itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in line with their own desires. They will also turn their ears away from the truth and will turn aside to myths. As for you, keep a clear head in every situation. Bear hardship. Do the work of an evangelist. Fulfill your ministry.

• Unless a Grain of Wheat: Refrain: Unless a grain of wheat shall fall upon the ground and die, it remains but a single grain with no life. 1) If we have died with him, then we shall live with him; if we hold firm, we shall reign with him. 2) If anyone serves me, then they must follow me; wherever I am, my servants will be. 3) Make your home in me as I make mine in you; those who remain in me bear much fruit. 4) If you remain in me and my word lives in you, then you will be my disciples. 5) Those who love me are loved by my Father; we shall be with them and dwell in them. 6) Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you; peace which the world cannot give is my gift.

• Psalm 78:1-8: Give ear, O my people, to my law; Incline your ears to the words of my mouth. I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings of old, Which we have heard and known, And our fathers have told us. We will not hide them from their children, Telling to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, And His strength and His wonderful works that He has done. For He established a testimony in Jacob, And appointed a law in Israel, Which He commanded our fathers, That they should make them known to their children; That the generation to come might know them, The children who would be born, That they may arise and declare them to their children, That they may set their hope in God, And not forget the works of God, But keep His commandments; And may not be like their fathers, A stubborn and rebellious generation, A generation that did not set its heart aright, And whose spirit was not faithful to God.

And great was its fall.” And so it was, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the people were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
