For speaking swelling words of vanity, in the lusts of the flesh they beguile with their impurities, those that have but partially escaped, who are still moving about in their delusion; promising them liberty, they themselves being the slaves of corruption: for to whatsoever any one has been subordinated, to this he has become enslaved.

However there were indeed false prophets among the people, as there will also be false teachers among you, whosoever shall bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their impurities; through whom the way of truth will be slandered: and in their covetousness they will sell you with their soft speeches: unto whom judgment from olden time tarries not, and their destruction does not slumber. read more.
For if God spared not the angels who sinned, but having sent them down to hell, committed them to chains of darkness to be kept unto judgment; and spared not the old world, but delivered Noah the eighth person, the preacher of righteousness, brings the flood upon the world of the ungodly; and having destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, with a catastrophe he condemned them, having put them forth as an example to those about to be ungodly: and he delivered righteous Lot, being grieved by the deportment of the ungodly in their debauchery: (for the righteous man dwelling among them, by seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds:) for the Lord knows how to rescue the godly out of temptations, and to keep the unrighteous unto the day of judgment enduring punishment: and especially those going after the flesh in the lust of pollution, and despising lordship. Audacious darers, blaspheming, they do not tremble at glories; where the angels, being greater in strength and power, do not bring a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord. But these, like irrational animals having been born naturally for capture and destruction, blaspheming those things in which they are ignorant; in their own corruption they will indeed corrupt themselves; receiving the reward of unrighteousness, esteeming pleasure which is in the daytime; luxury; spots and blemishes, swelling in their deceits, feasting along with you, having eyes full of an adulteress, and unable to cease from sin; beguiling unestablished souls: having a heart which has been made fat with covetousness; children of the curse: leaving the straight way, they have wandered off, following in the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the reward of iniquity; and had the conviction of his own conscience: the dumb workbeast having spoken with the voice of a man, rebuked the madness of the prophet. These are fountains without water, and mists driven away by the storm, for which the blackness of darkness has been reserved.

For if having escaped the pollutions of the world through the perfect knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and having again become entangled in these things, they are overcome, the last state has to them become worse than the first. For it was better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, having known it, to turn away from the holy commandment which has been delivered unto them. It has happened unto them according to the old proverb, The dog having returned to his own vomit; and the sow that had washed to wallowing in the mire.

Then who is the faithful and wise servant, whom the lord placed over his household to give them their food in season? Happy is that servant whom, his lord having come, will find so doing. Truly I say unto you, that he will appoint him over all his possessions. read more.
But if the wicked servant may say in his heart, My lord delayeth; and may begin to smite his fellow-servants, and eat and drink with the drunken; the lord of that servant will come in a day in which he does not expect, and an hour in which he does not know, and he will cut him off, and will appoint his part with hypocrites: and there shall be weeping and gnashing of the teeth.




Let your loins be girted, and your lamps burning; and be you like unto men waiting for their lord, when he may rise up from the marriage feast; in order that, coming and knocking, they may open unto him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom the lord having come will find watching: truly I say unto you, that he will gird himself, and have them sit down, and having come will serve them. read more.
If at the second, and third, watch he may come, happy are ye. Know this, that if the landlord knew at what hour the thief cometh, he would not have permitted his house to be broken into. Be ye also ready: because at an hour you do not think the Son of man cometh. And Peter said to Him, Lord, do you speak this parable to us, or to all? The Lord said, Who then is the faithful, wise steward, whom the lord will establish over his house-hold, to give them their food in season? Happy is that servant, whom his lord having come shall thus find watching. Truly I say unto you, that he will establish him over all his possessions. But if that servant may say in his heart, my lord delayeth his coming, and may begin to smite the servants and handmaidens, and to eat and drink, and be drunken; the lord of that servant will come in a day in which he does not expect, and in an hour in which he does not know, and will cut him off, and will appoint his part with the unbelievers. But that servant knowing the will of his lord, and not preparing or doing according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But the one not knowing, and doing things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few. But to every one to whom much is given, much will be required of him: and to whom they commit much, of him they will ask the more.

But which one of you, having a servant plowing or serving a shepherd, who will say to him, having come in from the field, Coming hither sit down immediately? But will he not say to him, Prepare what I may sup, and girding thyself, minister unto me, until I may eat and drink; and after these things you eat and drink? Whether does he thank the servant because he did the things which were commanded?

and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. They responded to Him, we are the seed of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one: How do You say, that you shall be free? Jesus responded to them, Truly, truly, I say unto you, That every one doing sin is the slave of sin. read more.
But the slave abides not in the house forever; the Son abides forever.

Do you not know, that to whom you present yourselves servants unto obedience, ye are servants to whom you obey; whether of sin unto death, or obedience unto righteousness? But thanks be unto God, that whereas ye were servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart the type of teaching into which ye were delivered: but having been made free from sin, ye became servants unto righteousness. read more.
I speak after the manner of a man on account of the weakness of your carnality. For as ye presented your members as servants unto impurity and lawlessness pursuant to lawlessness, so now present your members servants unto righteousness pursuant to sanctification. For when you were the servants of sin, you were free from righteousness. What fruit then had you at that time in those things in which you are now ashamed? for the end of these things is death. But now having been made free from sin, and having become servants unto God, you have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life.

Have you been called being a slave? let it not be a care to you: but if indeed you are able to become free, use it in preference. For the one having been called in the Lord, being a slave, is the Lord's freeman: likewise the one having been called, while free, is the slave of Christ. You have been bought with a price; be not the slaves of men.
