| Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin. | Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because whoever suffers in the body is done with sin. |
| But the end of all things is near. Therefore be of sound mind, self-controlled, and sober in prayer. | The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray. |
| And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins. | Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. |
Bible verse of the day

and shall give birth to a son.
They shall call his name Immanuel,”
which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
