in whom the whole building fitly joined together increaseth to an holy temple in the Lord:

that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith: and be ye rooted and grounded in love,

These are spots in your love-feasts, feeding themselves without fear, when they are feasting with you: clouds without water, carried about by the winds; trees withered and without fruit, twice dead and rooted up; raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame;

Built

Whoever therefore heareth these words of mine, and performeth them, I will compare him to a prudent man, who built his house on a rock:

Stablished

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, since ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

but He that establisheth us as well as you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; who hath also sealed us,

and establish you in every good word and work.

But may the God of all grace, who hath called us to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after ye have suffered a little while, make you perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.

Do ye therefore, beloved, as ye know these things before, take heed least being seduced together with them by the error of the wicked, ye should fall from your own stedfastness.

Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy:

With

giving thanks unto the Father, who hath made us meet for a portion of the inheritance of the saints in light:

And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to our God and Father by Him.

always giving thanks for all to God even the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ:

In every circumstance be thankful; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
