Crept

and while the men slept, his enemy came and sowed poisonous darnel in the midst of the wheat, and went away.

Since we heard that some going out from us have troubled you with words subverting your souls, to whom we gave no charge,

but on account of false brothers brought in secretly to act as spies against our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, to bring us into servitude,

that we may be no longer children, driven about like waves and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the art of men, and the craftiness of deceitful wiles,

Of these are those who go into the houses and take captive foolish women loaded with sins, and led by various desires,

But there were also false prophets among the people, as there shall also be false teachers among you, who shall bring in by stealth destructive heresies, even denying the master that bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction;

Who

or has not the potter a right, in respect to the clay, to make of the same mass one vessel to honor and another to dishonor?

and a stone of stumbling and rock of offense, who stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.

and with covetousness they will make a gain of you with feigned words, whose judgment a long time lingers not, and their destruction slumbers not.

Turning

WHAT shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that the grace may abound?

For you are called to liberty, brothers, only make not your liberty an occasion for the flesh, but by love serve one another.

For the grace of God that pertains to salvation appeared to all men,

taking care that no one may come short of the grace of God, that no root of bitterness springing up may make trouble and by it many be defiled,

as free, and not using freedom for a cloak of vice, but as servants of God.

but especially those who walk after the flesh, in corrupt desires, and despise goverment. Presumptuous, self-complacent, they fear not to revile glories,

Denying

To the pure all things are pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but their mind and conscience are defiled.

Who is a liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the anti-christ, [the man that] denies the Father and the Son.

General references

and many false prophets shall be raised up and deceive many,

for some have already turned back after Satan.

You believe that there is one God? You do well; demons also believe and tremble.
