God did not spare angels when they sinned. Instead, he sent them to hell. He chained them up in dark prisons. He will keep them there until he judges them.

God gives life to everything. Christ Jesus told the truth when he was a witness in front of Pontius Pilate. In the sight of God and Christ, I give you a command.

I give you a command in the sight of God and Christ Jesus. Christ will judge the living and the dead. Because he and his kingdom are coming, here is the command I give you.

Some of the angels didn’t stay where they belonged. They didn’t keep their positions of authority. The Lord has kept those angels in darkness. They are held by chains that last forever. On judgment day, God will judge them.

Keep reminding God’s people of these things. While God is watching, warn them not to argue about words. That doesn’t have any value. It only destroys those who listen.

My brothers and sisters, you are believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ. So treat everyone the same.Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes. And suppose a poor man in dirty old clothes also comes in.Would you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes? Would you say,“ Here’s a good seat for you”? Would you say to the poor man,“ You stand there”? Or“ Sit on the floor by my feet”?If you would, aren’t you treating some people better than others? Aren’t you like judges who have evil thoughts?

So from now on we don’t look at anyone the way the world does. At one time we looked at Christ in that way. But we don’t anymore.

“ Then he will say to those on his left,‘ You are cursed! Go away from me into the fire that burns forever. It has been prepared for the devil and his angels.

Take your tents down. Go into the hill country of the Amorites. Go to all the people who are their neighbors. Go to the people who live in the Arabah Valley. Travel to the mountains and the western hills. Go to the people in the Negev Desert and along the coast. Travel to the land of Canaan and to Lebanon. Go as far as the great Euphrates River.

Then a war began in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back.But the dragon wasn’t strong enough. Both he and his angels lost their place in heaven.The great dragon was thrown down to the earth, and his angels with him. The dragon is that old serpent called the devil, or Satan. He leads the whole world astray.

“‘ Do not make something wrong appear to be right. Treat poor people and rich people in the same way. Do not favor one person over another. Instead, judge everyone fairly.

Teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And you can be sure that I am always with you, to the very end.”

It isn’t good to favor those who do wrong. That would keep justice from those who aren’t guilty.

While the Lord is watching, here is what I command you. Have this letter read to all the brothers and sisters.

“ So I have caused all the people to hate you. They have lost respect for you. You have not done what I told you to do. Instead, you have favored one person over another in matters of the law.”

So the spies questioned Jesus.“ Teacher,” they said,“ we know that you speak and teach what is right. We know you don’t favor one person over another. You teach the way of God truthfully.

Levi didn’t show special favor to anyone. He did not spare his father and mother. He didn’t excuse his relatives or his children. But he watched over your word. He guarded your covenant.

They, too, will drink the wine of God’s great anger. His wine has been poured full strength into the cup of his anger. They will be burned with flaming sulfur. The holy angels and the Lamb will see it happen.

The Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory. His angels will come with him. And he will reward everyone in keeping with what they have done.

Help me understand your law so that I may follow it. I will obey it with all my heart.

Barnabas wanted to take John Mark with them.But Paul didn’t think it was wise to take him. Mark had deserted them in Pamphylia. He hadn’t continued with them in their work.

Let those who are wise pay attention to these things. Let them think about the loving deeds of the Lord.

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is pure. That’s the most important thing about it. And that’s not all. It also loves peace. It thinks about others. It obeys. It is full of mercy and good fruit. It is fair. It doesn’t pretend to be what it is not.
