forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, in order that they may fill up their sins at all times: but the wrath is coming upon them to the full.

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also should we believe that God will, through Jesus, bring with him those who sleep.

for God has not appointed us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

and that you esteem them very highly in love on account of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.
