I like what one wise old preacher told me. Preach hell, but only if you tell them about how to go to Heaven.

I also think he's telling them to be watchful in their interactions to save these revilers ... have mercy with fear ... so as not contaminate themselves ... thus the connection to their "filthied, corrupted garments" to one without "blemish or spot" ... and heeding to his warning of not stumbling ... in the following verses (24,25)
Quote:
Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to (B)make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with (C)great joy,
to the (D)only (E)God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, (F)be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, (G)before all time and now and forever. Amen.
