In context

17 and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus:

18 men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.

19 However, God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.”

20 Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor and some for dishonor.

21 If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master’s use, prepared for every good work.
