- Ngalokho-ke ngithi kini: Ningakhathazeki ngokuphila kwenu ukuthi niyakudlani noma niyakuphuzani, nangomzimba wenu ukuthi niyakwembathani. Ukuphila akukukhulu kunokudla nomzimba kunesambatho na?
- Ngokuba uma siphila, siphilela iNkosi; uma sifa, sifela iNkosi. Ngakho-ke noma siphila noma sifa, singabeNkosi.
- Uyakungazisa indlela yokuphila;
ukugcwala kwenjabulo kusebusweni bakho;
intokozo isesandleni sakho sokunene kuze kube phakade. - Ngiyazi ukuthi akukho okuhle kubo kunokuba bathokoze, bazenzele okumnandi besekhona. Kepha futhi ukuba abantu bonke badle, baphuze, babone okuhle kuwo wonke umshikashika wabo kuyisipho sikaNkulunkulu nalokho.
- Angiyikukhohlwa kuze kube phakade iziyalezo zakho,
ngokuba ungiphilisile ngazo. - Ngokuba njengalokhu ku-Adamu bonke bayafa, ngokunjalo futhi kuKristu bonke bayakuphiliswa.
- Isela kalizi kungengokweba nokubulala nokubhubhisa; mina ngize ukuba babe nokuphila, babe nakho kuchichime.
- Ngokuba ukunaka kwenyama kungukufa, kepha ukunaka kukaMoya kungukuphila nokuthula.
- Uma kungenzeka, ngokwenu hlalisanani ngokuthula nabantu bonke.
- Kukhona indlela ebonakala sengathi ilungile kumuntu,
kepha ukuphela kwayo kuyindlela yokufa. - Lowo ovuma ukuthi uJesu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu uhlala kuye, naye kuNkulunkulu.
- Ngakho-ke noma nidla, noma niphuza, noma nenzani, konke kwenzeleni udumo lukaNkulunkulu.
- UKristu wasikhulula ukuba sibe nenkululeko; ngakho-ke yimani niqine, ningabe nisaboshelwa ejokeni lobugqila.
- Elokugcina, bazalwane, thokozani, nipheleliswe, niduduzwe, nibe nhliziyonye, nibe nokuthula; khona uNkulunkulu wothando nokuthula uyakuba nani.
- Kanjalo-ke nokukholwa, uma kungenayo imisebenzi, kufile ngokwakho.
- Ohamba ngobuqotho uhamba ngokulondeka,
kepha ohlanekezela izindlela zakhe uyakwaziwa. - Kepha anazi yini ukuthi umzimba wenu uyithempeli likaMoya oNgcwele okinina, enimamukele kuNkulunkulu, nokuthi anisibo abenu na? Ngokuba nathengwa ngenani elikhulu. Ngakho-ke mbongeni uNkulunkulu emzimbeni wenu.
- Ngiyakwazi ukuba phansi, ngiyakwazi nokubusa; kukho konke nasezintweni zonke ngifundisiwe: ukusutha, nokulamba, nokubusa, nokuswela.
- Ngakho uJesu waphinda wakhuluma kubo, wathi: “Mina ngingukukhanya kwezwe; ongilandelayo kasoze ahamba ebumnyameni, kodwa woba nokukhanya kokuphila.”
- Ngokuba kuyakumsizani umuntu, uma ezuza izwe lonke, onakalelwe ukuphila kwakhe, na? Yingabe uyakukhiphani umuntu, kube yisihlengo sokuphila kwakhe, na?
- Futhi khumbula uMdali wakho
emihleni yobusha bakho,
zingakafiki izinsuku ezimbi,
ingakasondeli iminyaka osho ngayo ukuthi:
“Angithokozi ngayo.” - Ningakhathazeki ngokuphila kwenu ukuthi niyakudlani, nangomzimba wenu ukuthi niyakwembathani. Ngokuba ukuphila kukhulu kunokudla, nomzimba kunesambatho.
- Nokho kithina kukhona uNkulunkulu munye, uYise, okuvela kuye konke, nathi sikhonela yena, nenkosi inye, uJesu Kristu, okungaye konke, nathi sikhona ngaye.
- Yonke imibhalo iphefumulelwe nguNkulunkulu ilungele ukufundisa, nokusola, nokuqondisa, nokuyala ekulungeni, ukuze umuntu kaNkulunkulu aphelele, apheleliselwe yonke imisebenzi emihle.
- Ngokuba noma sihamba sisenyameni kasilwi ngokwenyama.
