I put that quote into Google and the very first thing to come up was had the chapter and verse reference. It also appeared on several other responses on the same page. A serious question; are you asking us because you want to preach to us? Surely it's simpler to do a Google search that takes a fraction of a second rather than wait for a while for someone on here to do it?
The answer is Matthew 11:15.
I opened the door one Saturday to two of those Jehova types. Unfortunately, I was hung over, unshaven, uncombed, in a half-closed bath robe, cigarette in one hand, snifter of brandy in the other (to help kill the hangover). I think they must have painted some symbol over the door visible only to them, as I was never bothered again after that. Been years and years.
For God's sake don't let them ,you'll never get rid of them .I am a bit naughty though and if they persist tell them I am spiritualist.They practically run down the drive.
What annoys me with them is they drag their poor kids around with them in wind and weather usually without any warm clothes on.
Do you think we have put her off yet?

my grandad when he was alive used to invite jehovahs into his house to talk, used to enjoy tying them in knots for a couple of hours before they were saying that they had to be making a move because there were many more poor souls than him that needed help that day!
They always skipped his house from that day on.
Perhaps Nat does not have a concordance.
The structure of the quote - to hear , let him hear nd are similar words in Greek, and although the NT was written in greek, the people writing it were speaking Aramaic. This phrase is more Aramaic in form than Greek
WHICH means - that it was a noted down quote.
WHICH means that somene actually said it, andif they took the trouble to note it, then the person speaking it was important.
YES boys and girls, this means that the quote is attirbutable to JC himself.
Some of Natalie other quotes - fair hair and blue eyes for example are defintiely not amenable to this sort of analysis and attribution.
(at least I tried to give a proper answer)
I would like to retract my previous source. I've just found it in Chapter 4, Verse 24 of the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, part of the gnostic gospels, whilst engaged on a discussion elsewhere. There's a link here:

I'd still like to hear why you're searching for all these bibilical texts though!
he who has ears let him hear:
speak only to people who have ears otherwise you are wasting your time because earless people will not hear you. Potentially, some of those people you speak to will still not hear because although they have ears they cannot hear from them because they are deaf. Furthermore, some people with ears cannot hear very well so you may need to speak up a bit and enunciate properly. you may wish to start writing things down so you can communicate with people regardless of their ear status. or perhaps try a mime.
sorry
