APOSTASY


Taken from the HOLY BIBLE: NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION (C) 1978 by the New 
York Bible Society, used by permission of Zondervan Bible Publishers.

EXO 32:1  When the people saw that Moses was so long in coming down from 
the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, "Come, make us gods who 
will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt, 
we don't know what has happened to him."

1SA 15:26  But Samuel said to him, "I will not go back with you. You have 
rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you as king over 
Israel!"

18:12  Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with David but had 
left Saul.

1CH 28:9  "And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father, and 
serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the LORD 
searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts. If 
you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will 
reject you forever.

ISA 1:28  But rebels and sinners will both be broken, and those who forsake 
the LORD will perish.

65:11  "But as for you who forsake the LORD and forget my holy mountain, 
who spread a table for Fortune and fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny,

12  I will destine you for the sword, and you will all bend down for the 
slaughter; for I called but you did not answer, I spoke but you did not 
listen. You did evil in my sight and chose what displeases me."

JER 17:5  This is what the LORD says: "Cursed is the one who trusts in man, 
who depends on flesh for his strength and whose heart turns away from the 
LORD.

6  He will be like a bush in the wastelands; he will not see prosperity 
when it comes. He will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt 
land where no one lives.

MAT 24:10  At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray 
and hate each other,

26:14  Then one of the Twelve--the one called Judas Iscariot--went to the 
chief priests

15  and asked, "What are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you?" 
So they counted out for him thirty silver coins.

16  From then on Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over.

MAR 10:14  When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, "Let the 
little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God 
belongs to such as these.

LUK 8:13  Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word with joy when 
they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the 
time of testing they fall away.

22:4  And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple 
guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus.

JOH 6:66  From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer 
followed him.

1CO 9:7  Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard 
and does not eat of its grapes? Who tends a flock and does not drink of the 
milk?

2TH 2:3  Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not 
come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the 
man doomed to destruction.

1TI 1:19  holding on to faith and a good conscience. Some have rejected 
these and so have shipwrecked their faith.

20  Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to 
Satan to be taught not to blaspheme.

4:1  The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the 
faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.

HEB 3:12  See to it, brothers, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving 
heart that turns away from the living God.

6:4  It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have 
tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit,

5  who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the 
coming age,

6  if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their 
loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him 
to public disgrace.

10:26  If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the 
knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left,

27  but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will 
consume the enemies of God.

28  Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the 
testimony of two or three witnesses.

29  How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who 
has trampled the Son of God under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing 
the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and who has insulted the 
Spirit of grace?

2PE 2:20  If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our 
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and overcome, 
they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning.

21  It would have been better for them not to have known the way of 
righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the 
sacred command that was passed on to them.

3:17  Therefore, dear friends, since you already know this, be on your 
guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and 
fall from your secure position.

JUD 1:5  Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that the 
Lord delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did 
not believe.
