since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of your love for all the saints;

And hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Now I exhort you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in prayers to God on my behalf,

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faith,

For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently out of a pure heart,
