For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and delivered them over to chains of darkness, to be kept for judgment; and if he spared not the old world, but brought a flood on the world of the ungodly, and saved Noah, the eighth person, who was a preacher of righteousness; and if, turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, he condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example to those who should afterward live in an ungodly manner, and delivered righteous Lot, wearied out with the licentious conduct of the lawless, for that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds: then, the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the ungodly for the day of judgment, to be punished; but especially those who walk after the flesh in unclean lust, and who despise government.

While they promise them freedom, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for by whatever any man is overcome, he is also enslaved. For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in these, and overcome by them, the last state of such is worse than the first. For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.
