Brethren, we must always give thanks to God for you, and it is only right that we do so. For your faith grows ever more, and the love that all of you have for one another continues to increase.
Brethren, you were called to freedom. However, make sure that you do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. Instead, serve one another in love.

The Lord will protect you against all evil; he will watch over your life. The Lord will watch over your coming and your going both now and forevermore.
