Among thorns

Jesus in Matthew 13 describes some people as among thorns.

He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

— KJV, Matthew 13:22

The among thorns people become unfruitful because of the deceitfulness of riches and the care of this world (verse 22). The among thorns people are saved[1].

How to deal with among thorns people?

Well it says that they become unfruitful because of the cares of this world so respect their right to self isolation if that is what they wish.
