Clarke's 2-corinthians 11:15 Bible Commentary

Whose end shall be according to their works - A bad way leads to a bad end. The way of sin is the way to hell.

Barnes's 2-corinthians 11:15 Bible Commentary

Therefore it is no great thing ... - It is not to be deemed surprising. You are not to wonder if people of the basest, blackest character put on the appearance of the greatest sanctity, and even become eminent as professed preachers of righteousness.

Whose end shall be ... - Whose final destiny. Their doom in eternity shall not be according to their fair professions and plausible pretences, for they cannot deceive God; but shall be according to their real character, and their works. Their work is a work of deception, and they shall be judged according to that. What revelations there will be in the day of judgment, when all impostors shall be unmasked, and when all hypocrites and deceivers shall be seen in their true colors! And how desirable is it that there should be such a day to disclose all beings in their true character, and forever to remove imposture and delusion from the universe!

Wesley's 2-corinthians 11:15 Bible Commentary

11:15 Therefore it is no great, no strange, thing; whose end, notwithstanding all their disguises, shall be according to their works.
