- So we must not fall asleep as the others do, but we must stay alert and sober.
- Therefore, encourage one another and strengthen one another, as indeed you are doing.
- Make sure that no one pays back evil for evil. Rather, always aim to achieve what is best for each other and for everyone.
- Rejoice always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.
- Test everything, and hold fast to what is good. Avoid every form of evil.
- The one who calls you is faithful, and he will accomplish this.
He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand unshaken.
