Matthew 13:11-13

Wesley(i) 11 He answered and said to them, Because to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven; but to them it is not given. 12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and he shall have abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even what he hath. 13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
