2 John 8
Names of God Bible
8 Be careful that you don’t destroy what we’ve worked for, but that you receive your full reward.
Hello when we try very hard to change our lives and live in harmony with divine principles this is the work that is referred to at 2 John 8. When we struggle every day to keep our minds and bodies clean this is the work that each Christian does that pleases God, James 1:27 (TLB). If we give up and go back to living as we did before we determined to follow Jesus Christ, then we return to drugs, alcohol, loose sexual habits because that is what we did that we wanted to change. What passage in the Bible helps us continue with our work in maintaining a Christian lifestyle?
2 Peter 2:17-2
Names of God Bible
17 These false teachers are dried-up springs. They are a mist blown around by a storm. Gloomy darkness has been kept for them. 18 They arrogantly use nonsense to seduce people by appealing to their sexual desires, especially to sexual freedom. They seduce people who have just escaped from those who live in error. 19 They promise these people freedom, but they themselves are slaves to corruption. A person is a slave to whatever he gives in to.
20 People can know our Lord and Savior Yeshua Christ and escape the world’s filth. But if they get involved in this filth again and give in to it, they are worse off than they were before. 21 It would have been better for them never to have known the way of life that God approves of than to know it and turn their backs on the holy life God told them to live. 22 These proverbs have come true for them: “A dog goes back to its vomit,” and “A sow that has been washed goes back to roll around in the mud.”
