Jeremiah 6:28-30
6:28 I reported,
“All of them are the most stubborn of rebels!
They are as hard as bronze or iron.
They go about telling lies.
They all deal corruptly.
6:29 The fiery bellows of judgment burn fiercely.
But there is too much dross to be removed.
The process of refining them has proved useless.
The wicked have not been purged.
6:30 They are regarded as ‘rejected silver’
because the Lord rejects them.”
Ezekiel 24:13
24:13 You mix uncleanness with obscene conduct.
I tried to cleanse you, but you are not clean.
You will not be cleansed from your uncleanness
until I have exhausted my anger on you.
Hebrews 6:4-8
6:4 For it is impossible in the case of those who have once been enlightened, tasted the heavenly gift, become partakers of the Holy Spirit,
6:5 tasted the good word of God and the miracles of the coming age,
6:6 and then have committed apostasy,
to renew them again to repentance, since
they are crucifying the Son of God for themselves all over again
and holding him up to contempt.
6:7 For the ground that has soaked up the rain that frequently falls on
it and yields useful vegetation for those who tend it receives a blessing from God.
6:8 But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is useless and about to be cursed;
its fate is to be burned.
Hebrews 6:2
6:2 teaching about baptisms, laying on of hands, resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

Jude 1:12
1:12 These men are
dangerous reefs
at your love feasts,
feasting without reverence,
feeding only themselves.
They are
waterless
clouds, carried along by the winds; autumn trees without fruit
– twice dead,
uprooted;
