| Deut. 30:17-18 | "But if your heart turns away so that you do not hear, and are drawn away, and worship other gods and serve them, I announce to you today that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land which you cross over the Jordan to go in and possess." |
| Prov. 21:16 | "A man who wanders from the way of understanding Will rest in the congregation of the dead." |
| Luke 11:23-26 | "He who is not with Me is against Me, and he
who does not gather with Me scatters. When an unclean spirit goes out of a man,
he goes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, 'I will
return to my house from which I came.' And when he comes, he finds it swept and
put in order. Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked
than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is
worse than the first." See (The Holy Spirit Baptism - Bears Fruit) |
| 1 Tim. 4:1-2 | "Now the Spirit *expressly (explicitly) says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron," |
| Heb. 2:1-4 | "Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away. For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just reward, how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him, God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and *gifts (distributions) of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?" |
| Heb. 6:4-6 | "For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame." |
| Jas. 5:19-20 | "Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins." |
| 2 Pet. 2:20-21 | "For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them." |
