don't be led into any mistake, because the previous rebellion does not yet appear, nor the man of sin throw off the disguise, that offspring of perdition:

don't you remember, I told you this, when I was with you?

pursuant to the maxim, which we laid down, when among you, "he that refuses to work should be deny'd food."

and if any one should disregard what we have prescrib'd, signify it to us by letter, and don't converse with him, that he may be put to shame.

however, don't treat him as an enemy, but reprove him as a brother.
