We order and encourage such people by the Lord Jesus, the Messiah, to do their work quietly and to earn their own living.

They will hold to an outward form of godliness but deny its power. Stay away from such people.

We need such a high priest one who is holy, innocent, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens.

For people who say such things make it clear that they are looking for a country of their own.

Think about the one who endured such hostility from sinners, so that you may not become tired and give up.

Do not neglect to do good and to be generous, for God is pleased with such sacrifices.

Such a person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.

Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a town, stay there a year, conduct business, and make money."

But you boast about your proud intentions. All such boasting is evil.

Continue to live such upright lives among the gentiles that, when they slander you as practicers of evil, they may see your good actions and glorify God when he visits them.

For many deceivers have gone out into the world. They refuse to acknowledge Jesus the Messiah as having become human. Any such person is a deceiver and an antichrist.

Therefore, we ought to support such people so that we can become genuine helpers with them.

15He will judge all people and convict everyone of all the ungodly things that they have done in such an ungodly way, including all the harsh things that these ungodly sinners have said about him."

There were flashes of lightning, noises, peals of thunder, and a powerful earthquake. There has never been such a powerful earthquake since people have been on the earth.
