But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.

And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.

For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.

Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;

For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto.

For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.

Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our affliction and distress by your faith:

For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.
