Dear friends, I urge you, as pilgrims and strangers upon earth, to refrain from indulging the cravings of your earthly nature, for they make war upon the soul.

Follow

Do not let any one look down on you because you are young, but, by your conversation, your conduct, your love, your faith, and your purity, be an example to those who hold the Faith.

But do you, Servant of God, avoid all this. Aim at righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, gentleness.

Try earnestly to live at peace with every one, and to attain to that purity without which no one will see the Lord.

Dear friend, take what is good for your example, not what is bad. The man who does what is good is from God; the man who does what is bad has never seen God.

Charity

Seek this Love earnestly, and strive for spiritual gifts, above all for the gift of preaching.

Peace

For the Kingdom of God does not consist of eating and drinking, but of righteousness and peace and gladness through the presence of the Holy Spirit.

And may God, the giver of this patience and this encouragement, grant you to be united in sympathy in Christ,

But I appeal to you, Brothers, by the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree in what you profess, and not to allow divisions to exist among you, but to be united-of one mind and of one opinion.

Try earnestly to live at peace with every one, and to attain to that purity without which no one will see the Lord.

Let him turn from evil and do good, Let him seek for peace and follow after it;

Call

And, here, too, he holds authority from the Chief Priests to put in chains all those who invoke your Name."

From Paul, who has been called to be an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, And from Sosthenes, our Brother.

My desire, then, is that it should be the custom everywhere for the men to lead the prayers, with hands reverently uplifted, avoiding heated controversy.

Out

The object of all instruction is to call forth that love which comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and a sincere faith.

Do not let any one look down on you because you are young, but, by your conversation, your conduct, your love, your faith, and your purity, be an example to those who hold the Faith.

General references

If it is possible, as far as rests with you, live peaceably with every one.
