Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them who so walk, since you have us for an example.

And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.

Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

And certain men who came down from Judea taught the brethren, and said, Except you be circumcised after the manner of Moses, you cannot be saved.

And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.

But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees who believed, saying, It is needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.

Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Now this I say, that every one of you says, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

For you are yet carnal: for while there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are you not carnal, and walk as men?

For first of all, when you come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that you have received, let him be accursed.

And because of false brethren brought in unawares, who came in secretly to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:

Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the mutilators.

For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who shall secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

And many shall follow their shameful ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

Whoever goes beyond, and abides not in the doctrine of Christ, has not God. He that abides in the doctrine of Christ, he has both the Father and the Son.

These are they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

Woe unto the world because of offenses! for it must needs be that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!

Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that temptations to sin will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!

And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto you as a heathen man and a tax collector.

I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one no not to eat.

Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother that walks disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received from us.

And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.

If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;

Perverse wranglings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw yourself.

Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

A man that is divisive after the first and second admonition reject;

If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

For he that bids him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
