also  the  coming  of  the  Son  of  man  be.  Then
      shall  two  be  in  the  field;  one  taken,  and  the
      other  left.  Two  women  will  grind  at  the  mill;
      one taken, and the other left. Watch then: for
      you know not what hour your Lord comes.


      2 Study to show yourself approved unto God, a
      workman  that  need  not  be  ashamed,  rightly
      dividing  the  word  of  truth.  But  shun  profane
      and vain babblings: for they will increase unto
      more ungodliness. And their word will eat as a
      canker: of whom are Hymenaeus and Philetus;
      who  concerning  the  truth  have  erred,  saying
      that  the  resurrection  is  already  past;  and
      overthrow the faith of some. Nevertheless, the

      foundation of God stands sure, having this seal;
      the Lord knows them that are his.

      And,  let  everyone  that  names  the  name  of
      Christ  depart  from  iniquity.  But  in  a  great
      house,  there  are  not  only  vessels  of  gold  and
      silver  but  also  of  wood  and  earth,  some  to
      honor  and  some  to  dishonor.  So  if  a  man

      purges himself from these (lies), he shall be a
      vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet for the
      master's use, prepared for every good work.
