who, although knowing the ordinance of God, that they who practise such things deserve death, not only do them themselves, but approve of those who do them.

But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practise such things.

And dost thou suppose, O man, who art judging those who do such things, and art thyself doing the same, that thou wilt escape the judgment of God?

And why do you not say, as some slanderously charge us with saying, Let us do evil, that good may come? The condemnation of such men is just.

For such men are not servants of our Lord Christ, but of their own appetites; and by good words and fair speeches they deceive the hearts of the simple.
