^(C1)Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our ^(C2)common salvation, I was compelled to write to you urgently appealing that you ^(F1)(C3)fight strenuously for the defense of ^(C4)the faith which was once for all ^(F2)(C5)handed down to ^(C6)the saints the faith that is the sum of Christian belief that was given verbally to believers.

They are ungodly persons whose ^(C2)condemnation was predicted long ago, for they distort ^(C3)the grace of our God into ^(C4)decadence and immoral freedom viewing it as an opportunity to do whatever they want, and ^(C5)deny and disown our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
