Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you to understand all these things.

Remind others about these things, and warn them before God not to argue over words. Arguing does not do any good but only destroys those who are listening.

Therefore, if anyone stops associating with these people, he will become a special utensil, set apart for the owner's use, prepared for every good action.

For some of these men go into homes and deceive foolish women who are burdened with sins and swayed by all kinds of desires.

These women are always studying but are never able to arrive at a full knowledge of the truth.

Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men oppose the truth. They are depraved in mind and their faith is a counterfeit.
