Jude 17-19 (NIV)
17 But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. 18 They said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.” 19 These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
Romans 8:9b (NIV)
9b …if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.

10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love.
Matthew 7:24-25 (NIV)
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
Romans 8:26-27 (NIV)
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness.

10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
