Leviticus 13:55
New King James Version
55 Then the priest shall examine the plague after it has been washed; and indeed if the plague has not changed its color, though the plague has not spread, it is unclean, and you shall burn it in the fire; it continues eating away, whether the damage is outside or inside.

New King James Version
20 For if, after they (A)have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are (B)again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. 21 For (C)it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. 22 But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: (D)“A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”

Hebrews 6:4-8
New King James Version
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted (A)the heavenly gift, and (B)have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 [a]if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, (C)since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, (D)receives blessing from God; 8 (E)but if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.

You will (B)not be cleansed of your filthiness anymore,
(C)Till I have caused My fury to rest upon you.
