Crept in by invitation. Transforming themselves as ministers of the gospel. Profane Pastors of Belial. Foolish jesters. They have their reward, as do all that drink from these wells without water. Subverting whole houses. "They allure through the lusts of the flesh" Lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. Carnal minded, full of envy, debate and UNCLEANNESS. "Many are gathered together, but not by me, saith the Lord." These are "evil men and seducers", having a form of godliness but denying the power of Christ and faith in His Blood. For they can find no place for repentance, although they may search for it with strong crying and tears. But it is impossible for them to be renewed unto godly sorrow to repentance, seeing how they crucify to themselves afresh daily, the Son of God, putting Him to an open shame of cruel mockings. Go not after them. Neither give them godspeed. Pray not for them, for they are fallen from grace. Reprobate silver. As Esau despised his birthright, so have these fallen back into perdition. The Lord rebuke them, "sharp arrows from the Almighty and coals of juniper." Psalm 120
