ESV, Luke 8:
BDAG:
① to cause someone to move from a reference point
② to distance oneself from some pers. or thing
According to Jesus, could a believer fall away?
Yes, shallowed believers could easily fall away.
Strong's Greek: 868. ἀφίστημι (aphistémi) — 14 Occurrences13 And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while, and in time of testing fall away.
