Hebrews 12:15

A Serious Warning Against Refusing God

¹⁴ Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord, ¹⁵ looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it; ¹⁶ lest there be any sexually immoral person, or profane person, like Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal.
