Chapter 13
- Let brotherly love continue. (Phil. 2:3; Rom. 12:10; 1 Pet. 3:8)
- Do not forget to entertain strangers, for
by so doing
some have unwittingly entertained angels. (Gen. 18:1-22; Gen. 19:2; Matt. 19:1; Matt. 25:35)
- Remember the prisoners as if chained with
them, and
those who are mistreated, since you yourselves are in the body also.
- Marriage is honourable among all, and the
bed undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will Judge. (Prov. 5:18&19;
John 2:1; 1 Cor. 6:9; 1 Cor. 6:18)
- Let your conduct be without covetousness,
and be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has
said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." (Deut. 31:6-8; Joshua 1:5; 2 Cor. 4:9)
- So we may boldly say:
"The Lord is my helper;
I will not
fear. (Ps.
118:6)
What can man do to me?"
- Remember those who rule over you, who
have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the
outcome of their conduct (lead).
- Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
(Heb. 1:12)
(*!*)
- Do not be carried about with various and
strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established
by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been
occupied with them. (Acts 20:32) (*!*)
- We have an altar from which those who
serve the tabernacle have no right to eat.
- For the bodies of those beasts, whose
blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are
burned outside the camp.
- Therefore Jesus also, that He might
sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate.
- Therefore let us go forth to Him,
outside the camp, bearing His reproach. (1 Pet. 4:14)
- For here we have no continuing city, but
we seek the one to come. (Heb. 11:14)
- Therefore by Him let us continually
offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips,
giving thanks to His name. (Lev. 7:12; Hos. 14:2; Heb. 12:28)
- But do not forget to do good and to
share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. (*!*)
- Obey those who rule over you, and be
submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as those who must give
account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that
would be unprofitable for you. (Ezek. 3:17)
- Pray for us; for we are confident that
we have a
good conscience, in all things desiring to be honourable. (Acts 23:1; Eph. 6:19; 1 Pet. 3:16)
- But I especially urge you to do this,
that I may
be restored to you the sooner.
- Now may the God of peace who brought up
our Lord
Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the
blood
of the everlasting covenant, (John 21:16; Rom. 5:1&2; Rom. 5:10; Rom. 4:24; 1 Pet. 2:25; 1 Pet. 5:4)
- make you complete in every good work to
do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through
Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. (Heb. 12:28; Phil. 2:13)
- And I appeal to you, brethren, bear with
the word of exhortation, for I have written to you in few words.
- Know that our brother Timothy has been
set free, with whom I shall see you if he comes shortly.
- Greet all those who rule over you, and
all the saints. Those from Italy greet you.
- Grace be with you all. Amen.
