Let

Many live as enemies of the stake of Christ. I often wept as I told you about them.

I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, invite you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called.

Walk worthily of God, fully pleasing him. Bear fruit in every good work, and increase in the knowledge (Greek: epignosis: full discernment, recognition) of God.

You know how we dealt with each one of you. It was like a father with his own children, exhorting you, and encouraging and showing you.

Furthermore, we encourage you, brothers, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as you have received from us how you ought to walk, and to please God, so you would abound more and more.

He offered us his precious and exceedingly great promises. Through these you may become partakers of the divine nature. You will escape from the corruption that is in the lust-filled world.

Seeing that these things are thus all to be dissolved (destroyed), what manner of persons should you be in all holy living and godliness?

The gospel

God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit (whole heart and mind) in the good news of his Son. Without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers.

That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the nations, ministering the good news of God, that the offering of these nations might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

The god of this age (world) (religious, social, political, and economic arrangement) has blinded the minds of unbelievers that the light of the good news of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine on them.

The proof of this ministry is that they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the good news of Christ, and for your liberal sharing with them and all men.

Yet this is not another good news. But there are some who trouble (agitate) you, and they would pervert the good news of Christ.

Whether

My beloved, you have always obeyed, not just in my presence, but now much more in my absence. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

I may

For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus that is among you, and the love you show all the holy ones.

We have heard about your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love you have for all the holy ones.

Timothy came from you to us, and brought us good news about your faith and love. We want you to have good memories of us always, and that you desire to see us just as we also desire to see you.

I hear about your love, and about the faith you have toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the holy ones.

For I rejoiced greatly when brothers came and witnessed about the truth that is in you and that you walk in truth.

In one

I will give them the same attitude and the same purpose so that they will respect and reverence me as long as they live. This will be for their good and for the good of their children.

I pray, not for these alone but for those who will believe in me through their word.

They continued daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house. They ate their food with gladness and singleness of heart.

The congregation that believed was of one heart and mind. No one claimed his or her own possessions for everything was common property.

For we have many members in one body and all members do not have the same function.

For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of that one body, being many and are one body, so also is Christ.

Diligently try to keep the unity (oneness) of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for those who make peace.

Beloved, I diligently wrote you about our common salvation. I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the holy ones.

The faith

Jehovah will plead their cause and take the life of those who rob them.

A few days later Felix arrived with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jewess. He sent for Paul and listened to him concerning faith in Christ.

Through whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, respecting his name.

But what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart. It is the word of faith, which we preach. (Deuteronomy 30:8-20)

You have heard the word of the truth in Christ. It is the good news about your salvation. You also believed and were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit.

Sound teaching (doctrine) is according to the good news of the glory of the blessed (happy) God. This was committed to my trust.

I have fought the good fight! I have finished the course! I have kept the faith!
