8. We cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.
9. We are happy to be weak, if you are strong, and we pray that you will become complete.
10. I am writing this while I am away from you so that when I come I will not have to be harsh in my use of authority. The Lord gave me this authority to build you up, not to tear you down.
11. Now, brothers and sisters, I say good-bye. Live in harmony. Do what I have asked you to do. Agree with each other, and live in peace. Then the God of love and peace will be with you.
