2 Thess. 2:9‑12• 9whose coming is according to the working of Satan in all power and signs and wonders of falsehood,
10and in all deceit of unrighteousness for those that perish, because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved.

2 Peter 2:10‑19• 10and especially those that walk after flesh in lust of uncleanness, and despise lordship. Daring, self-willed, they tremble not speaking railingly of dignities,
11when angels, being greater in might and power, bring not against them before [the] Lord a railing charge.
12But these, as irrational animals born by nature for capture and destruction, speaking evil in what things they are ignorant, shall also perish in their corruption,
13receiving as they shall wages of unrighteousness, accounting [their] ephemeral luxury pleasure; spots and blemishes, luxuriating in their love feasts, feasting with you;
14having eyes full of an adulteress and without cessation from sin; setting baits for unstable souls; having a heart practiced in covetousness, children of curse;
15abandoning as they did a straight way, they went astray, following out in the way of Balaam [son] of Beor, who loved wages of unrighteousness,
16but had reproof of his own iniquity; a dumb beast of burden speaking with man's voice forbade the madness of the prophet.
17These are springs without water, and mists driven by storm, to whom the gloom of darkness is reserved.

11Woe unto them! because they went in the way of Cain, and rushed greedily into the error of Balaam's hire, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah.
12These are spots in your love-feasts, feasting together, fearlessly pasturing themselves; clouds without water carried along by winds; autumnal trees without fruit, twice dead, rooted up;
13raging sea-waves foaming out their own shames; wandering stars for whom hath been reserved the gloom of darkness forever.
(Jude 8‑13)
 Though they were “swept and garnished” (ch. 11:25) in an outward way, they were engaged in refusing the One sent of God to occupy the house. (Luke 11 by F.B. Hole)
