Concluding Ethical Instructions

15 By Him, then, let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips, confessing His name. 16 But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 17 Yield to those leading you, and be submissive, for they watch for your souls, as those who must give account, that they may do it with joy and not with grief; for that is unprofitable for you.
