Thinking about this passage from 2 Peter today. It's a powerful reminder about the seriousness of our walk after knowing Jesus. It talks about how getting free from the world's stuff through Christ, only to get tangled back up in it, leaves someone in a worse place than they started. It even says it might have been better not to know the right way than to know it and turn your back on it.

Really drives the point home with these analogies:

"If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 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. Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.”"
- 2 Peter 2:20-22 (NIV)  

Definitely makes you think about staying the course and the importance of perseverance in faith!
