然吾儕惟信主以得救、非若背道者、至於沉淪、

然我儕不屬退後而淪亡者、乃屬信主而靈魂得救者也、

吾人則非畏首畏尾、終致淪亡之徒也；乃浩然不疑、自求靈祉之人也。

But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.

But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.

But we are not like those who turn away from God to their own destruction. We are the faithful ones, whose souls will be saved.

But we are not those who draw back and are destroyed, but those who have faith and are saved.

But we are not among those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith for the safekeeping of the soul.

But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.

But we are not of them that shrink back unto perdition; but of them that have faith unto the saving of the soul.

But we are not those who draw back and are destroyed, but those who have faith and obtain life.

But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

Who is it that has won the battle over the world? Only the person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

Suppose you see any brother or sister commit a sin. But this sin is not the kind that leads to death. Then you should pray, and God will give them life. I’m talking about someone whose sin does not lead to death. But there is a sin that does lead to death. I’m not saying you should pray about that sin.

“ I am very sad I have made Saul king. He has turned away from me. He has not done what I directed him to do.” When Samuel heard that, he was angry. He cried out to the Lord during that whole night.

Our hearts had not turned away from you. Our feet had not wandered from your path.

But they have fallen away from the faith. So it won’t be possible to bring them back. They won’t be able to turn away from their sins. They are losing everything. That’s because they are nailing the Son of God to the cross all over again. They are bringing shame on him in front of everyone.Some land drinks the rain that falls on it. It produces a crop that is useful to those who farm the land. That land receives God’s blessing.But other land produces only thorns and weeds. That land isn’t worth anything. It is in danger of coming under God’s curse. In the end, it will be burned.Dear friends, we have to say these things. But we are sure of better things in your case. We are talking about the things that have to do with being saved.

These ungodly people are like stains at the meals you share. They have no shame. They are shepherds who feed only themselves. They are like clouds without rain. They are blown along by the wind. They are like trees in the fall. Since they have no fruit, they are pulled out of the ground. So they die twice.They are like wild waves of the sea. Their shame rises up like foam. They are like falling stars. God has reserved a place of very black darkness for them forever.

The beast that you saw used to exist and now does not. Yet it will come up out of the Abyss and be destroyed. Some people on the earth will be amazed when they see the beast. Their names have not been written in the book of life from the time the world was created. They will be amazed at the beast. That’s because it will come again even though it used to exist and now does not.
