Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.

Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.
