Christ was revealed in a human body
and vindicated by the Spirit.
He was seen by angels
and announced to the nations.

and taken to heaven in glory. - A newly married man must not be drafted into the army or be given any other official responsibilities. He must be free to spend one year at home, bringing happiness to the wife he has married.

so I will not be overcome by evil. - For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word.

- So, what about eating meat that has been offered to idols? Well, we all know that an idol is not really a god and that there is only one God.

and people all over the world will fear him. - In the night I search for you;
in the morning I earnestly seek you.
For only when you come to judge the earth
will people learn what is right. - Therefore, accept each other just as Christ has accepted you so that God will be given glory.
- Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people. Hold firmly to the word of life.

let my speech settle like dew.
Let my words fall like rain on tender grass,
like gentle showers on young plants. - I am the Lord, the God of all the peoples of the world. Is anything too hard for me?
- This is how we know if they have the Spirit of God: If a person claiming to be a prophet acknowledges that Jesus Christ came in a real body, that person has the Spirit of God. But if someone claims to be a prophet and does not acknowledge the truth about Jesus, that person is not from God. Such a person has the spirit of the Antichrist, which you heard is coming into the world and indeed is already here.
- The end of the world is coming soon. Therefore, be earnest and disciplined in your prayers.
- Give thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness.
Let the whole world know what he has done.
