Strong

for he disputed not against the promise of God with unbelief; but was mighty in faith, giving glory to God;

We are counted fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are mighty; ye are honourable persons, but we despised.

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Finally, brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

THOU therefore, my son, be mighty in the grace which is in Jesus Christ.

I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him, who is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

Ought

HIM that is weak in faith take by the hand, and enter not into niceties of disputes.

I became to the weak as weak, that I might gain the weak; I became all things to all men, that by every means I might save some.

Yea, much more the members of the body, which appear to be more feeble, are necessary:

BRETHREN, if a man also be surprised into any act of offence, ye that are spiritual, replace such a one in the spirit of meekness; keeping an attentive eye on thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

Now we conjure you, brethren, admonish the unruly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the infirm, be patient with all men.

Please

For even Christ gratified not himself; but as it is written, "The reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me."
