Galatians 5:7

7 ^aYou were running well. Who hindered you from obeying ^bthe truth?

Hebrews 10:38-39

38 ^cbut my righteous one shall live by faith,
and if he shrinks back,
my soul has no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.

2 Peter 2:10-20

10 and especially ^dthose who indulge ^{▼▼Greek who go after the flesh} in the lust of defiling passion and ^fdespise authority.

Bold and willful, they do not tremble ^gas they blaspheme the glorious ones, 11 ^hwhereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord. 12 ⁱBut these, like irrational animals, ^jcreatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheming about matters of which they are ignorant, will also be destroyed in their destruction, 13 suffering wrong as ^kthe wage for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure ^lto revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, ^{▼▼Some manuscripts love feasts} while ⁿthey feast with you. 14 They have eyes full of adultery, ^oinsatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts ^ptrained in greed. ^qAccursed children! 15 Forsaking the right way, ^rthey have gone astray. They have followed ^sthe way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved ^tgain from wrongdoing, 16 but was rebuked for his own transgression; ^ua speechless donkey spoke with human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.

17 ^vThese are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm. ^wFor them the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved. 18 For, ^xspeaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely ^yescaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them ^zfreedom, ^aabut they themselves are slaves ^{▼▼Greek bondservants} of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. 20 For if, ^acafter they have escaped the defilements of the world ^adthrough the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, ^aethe last state has become worse for them than the first.

Revelation of John 2:4-5

4 But I have this against you, that you have abandoned ^afthe love you had at first. 5 Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do ^agthe works you did at first. If not, ^ahI will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent.

Revelation of John 3:3

3 ^aiRemember, then, what you received and heard. Keep it, and repent. If you will not wake up, ^ajI will come ^aklike a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come against you.
