   Now, as it was then in regards to the religious folk Jesus the Christ speaks,   
   as they too make excuses, and turn a deaf ear unto His Words. Lest He Heal   
   them. Now, as then, they deceive themselves and wist not that the spirit of   
   God has departed from them. A contentious lot they are, without Love for the   
   brethren.   
      
   Listen up to what the Lord sayeth....   
      
   Mat 13:10-17 (KJV)   
      
   10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in   
   parables?   
      
   11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the   
   mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.   
      
   12For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more   
   abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he   
   hath.   
      
   13Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and   
   hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.   
      
   14And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye   
   shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not   
   perceive:   
      
   15For this people's heart is waxed gross, and theirears are dull of hearing,   
   and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with   
   theireyes, and hear withtheirears, and should understand with theirheart, and   
   should be converted, and I should heal them.   
      
   16But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.   
      
   17For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous menhave desired   
   to seethose things which ye see, and have not seen them;and to hearthose   
   things which ye hear, and have not heard them.   
      
   â€œWatch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy   
   to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the   
   Son of man.†(Luk 21:36, KJV)   
      
   Cessationism is based upon the same disbelief as atheism.
