(See, for example: 1 Corinthians 1:30: «But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption»; 1 Thessalonians 1:9 - 10: «For they themselves
shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead,
even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come»; 1 Peter 2:24: «Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed..»)
Also our LORD warned us of false teachers when he said: «For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall
shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible,
even the elect.»
