Sneaky People

Fight the good fight of the faith; take hold of the eternal life, to which you were called and for which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

They profess to know God, but they deny him by their actions. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.

If any of you is lacking in wisdom, ask God, who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly, and it will be given you.

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that is taking place among you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.

And in their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. Their condemnation, pronounced against them long ago, has not been idle, and their destruction is not asleep.
