3:15 And regard the
patience of
our Lord as salvation,
just as also our dear brother Paul wrote to
you,
according to the
wisdom given to him,
16 speaking of these things
in all his
letters.
Some things in these letters are hard to understand,
things the
ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction,
as they
also do to the
rest of the
scriptures.
17 Therefore,
dear friends, since
you have been
forewarned,
be
on your
guard that you do
not get
led astray by the
error of these
unprincipled men and
fall from
your firm grasp on the truth.
18 But grow in the
grace and knowledge of
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To
him be the
honor both now and on that
eternal day.
