The First Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Church at Corinth
Chapter 16:13-14, 16

13 Watch ye: stand fast in the faith: quit you like men, and be strong.
14 Let all your things be done in love.
16 That ye be obedient even unto such, and to all that help with us and labor.

Brethren:
As we have written many times over in our studies, we continually stress the importance of maintaining and, the remaining of, being steadfast in our belief. Indeed let us be of good courage (Read Joshua 1:9), to be able to withstand all things and all the darts of our adversary, and his minions (Read Ephesians 6:16; 1 Peter 5:8).

Likewise, friends, do all that you do in love, in order to show God's love and mercy. Remember you are His emissaries on this earth, His proxies; be holy, for He is holy. (Read Leviticus 20:7-8 Henceforth, let us, therefore go forth in love. Speaking softly in love, being slow to anger, and quick to forgive.

That you honor and reverence them, be obedient to them and be content to be ruled by them, as meet as you should, seeing they have bestowed themselves, and their goods to help you withall.
