1. Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
2. Open your hearts to us. We have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have cheated no one.
3. I do not say this to condemn; for I have said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together.
4. Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I am exceedingly joyful in all our tribulation.
