- When a crime is not punished quickly, people feel it is safe to do wrong.
- So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding.

You don’t need further instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.
- And when he comes, he will convict the world of its sin, and of God’s righteousness, and of the coming judgment.

“I will take revenge;
I will pay them back,”
says the Lord.
