20 fAgain, if a righteous person turns from his righteousness and commits injustice, gand I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die. hBecause you have not warned him, he shall die for his sin, iand his righteous deeds that he has done shall not be remembered, jbut his blood I will require at your hand.Ezekiel 18:24
24 kBut when a righteous person turns away from his righteousness and does injustice and does the same abominations that the wicked person does, shall he live? lNone of the righteous deeds that he has done shall be remembered; for mthe treachery of which he is guilty and the sin he has committed, for them he shall die.Zephaniah 1:6
6 nthose who have turned back from following the Lord,owho do not seek the Lord or inquire of him.”

43“When pthe unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through qwaterless places seeking rest, but finds none. 44Then it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when it comes, it finds the house empty, swept, and put in order. 45Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there, and rthe last state of that person is worse than the first. So also will it be with this sevil generation.”Matthew 13:21

26For acif we go on sinning deliberately adafter receiving the knowledge of the truth, aethere no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 afbut a fearful expectation of judgment, and aga fury of fire that will consume the adversaries.
