“Isaiah’s prophecy is fulfilled in them, which says:
You will listen and listen,
but never understand;
you will look and look,
but never perceive.
“You are going to hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, because these things must take place, but the end is not yet.
Immediately his ears were opened, his tongue was loosened, and he began to speak clearly.
“When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, don’t be alarmed; these things must take place, but it is not yet the end.
When he had concluded saying all this to the people who were listening, he entered Capernaum.

For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will multiply teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear what they want to hear.
For we also have received the good news just as they did. But the message they heard did not benefit them, since they were not united with those who heard it in faith.[fn]
We have a great deal to say about this, and it is difficult to explain, since you have become too lazy to understand.
