But you, my friends. "You, who do have the Spirit (Acts 5:32), by your conduct and by encouraging one another, must continue to build yourselves up on the foundation of your most sacred faith (the Good News)!" The false teachers proclaimed an un-sacred or unholy faith. Pray in the power. Mac-Knight views this as inspired prayer. Compare 1 Corinthians 14:15; James 5:14-15. But it is also true that every Christian has the Holy Spirit as his prayer-partner (Romans 8:26 and notes). The false teachers could have no such prayer-partner! Prayer and immorality are incompatible!!!
