Thomas Brooks warns against the folly of indulging in sin, describing it as the 'fool's bauble' and 'fool's fiddle.' He emphasizes that fools take delight in wickedness, treating sin as a sport, which ultimately leads to their eternal damnation. Brooks cites various scriptures to illustrate that those who mock sin will face mockery in hell, and he stresses the corrupting nature of sin as a poison to the soul. He calls for a recognition of the grave consequences of delighting in evil, urging listeners to turn away from such folly.

Leonard Verduin discusses the historical conflict between two delineations of the Church: one emphasizing personal faith as the basis for a confessional Church, and the other focusing on including all in a given locality. The Restitutionists in Hesse believed in a Church of regenerate Christians born again by the Word of God and the Holy Spirit, while Protestant pastors emphasized the importance of the pure preaching of the Word and administration of Sacraments. The debate over Church marks and discipline led to a divergence in views on Church membership and conductual patterns, with the Restitutionists advocating for a Church of believers with inner renewal and discipline, contrasting the inclusive Church concept of the sacralists.

Greek Word Studies preaches on the concept of being spotless, emphasizing the importance of believers manifesting flawless integrity and uncompromising holiness in their moral character. The term 'aspilos' signifies being free from censure, irreproachable, and unsullied, reflecting a pursuit of personal purity akin to Jesus Christ, who is described as 'unblemished and spotless'. New Testament writers like Paul, Peter, and James use 'aspilos' to encourage believers to live in anticipation of Christ's return, maintaining a pure and undefiled state amidst worldly temptations.

John Gill expounds on 2 Peter 2:13, emphasizing the consequences of unrighteousness and the just punishment that awaits those who indulge in sinful pleasures without regard for future judgment. He describes the behavior of those who revel in sin openly, likening them to Sodom, and highlights their role in defiling themselves and others through their actions. Gill warns against the dangers of self-deception and the scandalous behavior of those who partake in feasts while living in sin, urging believers to recognize the seriousness of their conduct and the impact it has on the community of faith.
