Hebrews 4:2
Bible › Hebrews › Chapter 4 › Verse 2
For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.For we also received the good news just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, since they did not share the faith of those who comprehended it.
