Our exhortation was not to bring you to error, nor yet to uncleanness, neither was it with guile:

while night and day, with intense earnestness, we pray that we may see your faces, and may bring to perfection whatever may be still lacking in your faith?

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

Bring everything to the test; cling to what is good;

Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.
