7 Para que, justificados por su gracia, seamos hechos herederos según la esperanza de la vida eterna.
8 Palabra fiel, y estas cosas quiero que afirmes, para que los que creen á Dios procuren gobernarse en buenas obras. Estas cosas son buenas y útiles á los hombres.
9 Mas las cuestiones necias, y genealogías, y contenciones, y debates acerca de la ley, evita; porque son sin provecho y vanas.
10 Rehusa hombre hereje, después de una y otra amonestación;
11 Estando cierto que el tal es trastornado, y peca, siendo condenado de su propio juicio.
