in the hope of eternal life which God, who never lies, promised ages ago

but hospitable, a lover of goodness, sensible, upright, of pure life, self-controlled,

the older men to be temperate, serious, and sensible, healthy in faith, in love, and in steadfastness;

training us to give up godless ways and worldly cravings and live serious, upright, and godly lives in this world,

so that we might come into right standing with God through His unmerited favor and become heirs of eternal life in accordance with our hope.

Our people too must set examples of doing good, so as to meet the necessary demands and not to live unfruitful lives.

All who are with me wish to be remembered to you. Remember me to all who love me as Christians. Spiritual blessing be with you all.
