So I say this, and insist in the Lord, that you no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.

And whatever you do in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Finally then, brothers and sisters, we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received instruction from us about how you must live and please God (as you are in fact living) that you do so more and more.

Before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels, I solemnly charge you to carry out these commands without prejudice or favoritism of any kind.

and constant bickering by people corrupted in their minds and deprived of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a way of making a profit.

They will maintain the outward appearance of religion but will have repudiated its power. So avoid people like these.

See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God, that no one be like a bitter root springing up and causing trouble, and through him many become defiled.

Therefore, if I come, I will call attention to the deeds he is doing -- the bringing of unjustified charges against us with evil words! And not being content with that, he not only refuses to welcome the brothers himself, but hinders the people who want to do so and throws them out of the church!

Walketh

For you know yourselves how you must imitate us, because we did not behave without discipline among you,

to aspire to lead a quiet life, to attend to your own business, and to work with your hands, as we commanded you.

And we urge you, brothers and sisters, admonish the undisciplined, comfort the discouraged, help the weak, be patient toward all.

After

For even when we were with you, we used to give you this command: "If anyone is not willing to work, neither should he eat."

Therefore, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold on to the traditions that we taught you, whether by speech or by letter.
