May God, the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.

And to give relief to you who are suffering, as well as to us, at the Appearing of the Lord Jesus from Heaven with his mighty angels, 'in flaming fire.'

But the Lord will not fail you; he will give you strength, and guard you from Evil.

This was not because we had not a right to receive support, but our object was to give you a pattern for you to copy.

May the Lord, from whom all peace comes, himself give you his peace at all times and in all ways. May he be with you all.
