For this reason, holy brothers, marked out to have a part in heaven, give thought to Jesus the representative and high priest of our faith;
Now I, Paul, myself make request to you by the quiet and gentle behaviour of Christ, I who am poor in spirit when with you, but who say what is in my mind to you without fear when I am away from you:
Take my yoke on you and become like me, for I am gentle and without pride, and you will have rest for your souls;
Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any man would come after me, let him give up all, and take up his cross, and come after me.

I have given you an example, so that you may do what I have done to you.
Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:
Let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus,
Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you:

Having our eyes fixed on Jesus, the guide and end of our faith, who went through the pains of the cross, not caring for the shame, because of the joy which was before him, and who has now taken his place at the right hand of God's seat of power.
This is God's purpose for you: because Jesus himself underwent punishment for you, giving you an example, so that you might go in his footsteps:
Destruction » Example of
But on the day when Lot went out of Sodom, fire came down from heaven and destruction came on them all.
And the Lord, in answer to the voice of Israel, gave the Canaanites up to them; and they put them and their towns completely to destruction: and that place was named Hormah.
At that time we took all his towns, and gave them over to complete destruction, together with men, women, and children; we had no mercy on any:
And they put everything in the town to the curse; men and women, young and old, ox and sheep and ass, they put to death without mercy.
For Joshua did not take back his hand with the outstretched spear till the destruction of the people of Ai was complete.
For the Lord made them strong in heart to go to war against Israel, so that he might give them up to the curse without mercy, and that destruction might come on them, as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

And why are you troubled about clothing? See the flowers of the field, how they come up; they do no work, they make no thread: But I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. But if God gives such clothing to the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is put into the oven, will he not much more give you clothing, O you of little faith?
Give thought to the flowers: they do no work, they make no thread; and still I say to you, Even Solomon, in all his glory, was not clothed like one of these.
