<br />
It therefore behooves us, who inquire much concerning events at hand, to search diligently into those things which are able to save us. Let us then utterly flee from all the works of iniquity, lest these should take hold of us; and let us hate the error of the present time, that we may set our love on the world to come: let us not give loose reins to our soul, that it should have power to run with sinners and the wicked, lest we become like them. <span style="background-color: white;"><span style="background-color: white; color: blue;"><u><strong>The final stumbling-block<span style="color: #999999;"> (</span>or source of danger<span style="color: #999999;">)</span> approaches.</strong></u></span> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;">We take earnest heed <strong><span style="color: blue;"><u>in these last days</u></span></strong>; for the whole [past] time of your faith</span><span style="background-color: white;"> will profit you nothing, unless now in this </span><span style="background-color: white;">wicked</span><span style="background-color: white;"> time we also withstand coming sources of danger, as becomes the sons of </span><span style="background-color: white;">God</span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="background-color: white;">. <strong><span style="color: blue;"><u>That the antichrist may find no means of entrance</u></span></strong></span>,</span> let us flee from every vanity, let us utterly hate the works of the way of wickedness.<br />
