The things which came to you by my teaching and preaching, and which you saw in me, these things do, and the God of peace will be with you.

Have a care for these things; give yourself to them with all your heart, so that all may see how you go forward.

But he whose life is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his acts have been done by the help of God.

Giving to the needs of the saints, ready to take people into your houses.

All things, then, which they give you orders to do, these do and keep: but do not take their works as your example, for they say and do not.

Who, though they have knowledge of the law of God, that the fate of those who do these things is death, not only go on doing these things themselves, but give approval to those who do them.

For this reason, my brothers, take all the more care to make your selection and approval certain; for if you do these things you will never have a fall:

But if any man will not be ruled in this question, this is not our way of doing things, and it is not done in the churches of God.

In this way it is clear who are the children of God and who are the children of the Evil One; anyone who does not do righteousness or who has no love for his brother, is not a child of God.

But he said, More happy are they who give hearing to the word of God and keep it.

Take care not to do your good works before men, to be seen by them; or you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

But solid food is for men of full growth, even for those whose senses are trained by use to see what is good and what is evil.

For the training of the body is of profit for a little, but religion is of profit in every way, giving hope for the life which now is, and for that which is to come.

But have nothing to do with unclean and foolish stories. Give yourself training in religion:

If these things are clear to you, happy are you if you do them.

And then will I say to them, I never had knowledge of you: go from me, you workers of evil.

For the good which I have a mind to do, I do not: but the evil which I have no mind to do, that I do.

And in this, I do my best at all times to have no reason for shame before God or men.

When you have come into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, do not take as your example the disgusting ways of those nations.

If we say we are joined to him, and are walking still in the dark, our words are false and our acts are untrue:

If you have knowledge that he is upright, it is clear to you that everyone who does righteousness is his offspring.

Let there not be seen among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter go through the fire, or anyone using secret arts, or a maker of strange sounds, or a reader of signs, or any wonder-worker,

You may not do those things which were done in the land of Egypt where you were living; and you may not do those things which are done in the land of Canaan where I am taking you, or be guided in your behaviour by their rules.

And I have no clear knowledge of what I am doing, for that which I have a mind to do, I do not, but what I have hate for, that I do.

Keep open house for all with a glad heart;

But they were joined to the nations, learning their works.

Anyone who is a child of God does no sin, because he still has God's seed in him; he is not able to be a sinner, because God is his Father.

But he said to them in answer, My mother and my brothers are those who have knowledge of the word of God and do it.

Any woman using unnatural powers or secret arts is to be put to death.

My little children, let no man take you out of the true way: he who does righteousness is upright, even as he is upright;

Envy, uncontrolled drinking and feasting, and such things: of which I give you word clearly, even as I did in the past, that they who do such things will have no part in the kingdom of God.

And they come to you as my people come, and are seated before you as my people, hearing your words but doing them not: for deceit is in their mouth and their heart goes after profit for themselves.

Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,

No man has authority over the wind, to keep the wind; or is ruler over the day of his death. In war no man's time is free, and evil will not keep the sinner safe.

For from the least of them even to the greatest, everyone is given up to getting money; from the prophet even to the priest, everyone is working deceit.

And truly you are to them like a love song by one who has a very pleasing voice and is an expert player on an instrument: for they give ear to your words but do them not.

So I will give their wives to others, and their fields to those who will take them for themselves: for everyone, from the least to the greatest, is given up to getting money; from the priest even to the prophet, everyone is false.

And this was the answer Jesus gave them: Truly I say to you, Everyone who does evil is the servant of sin.

But you who are judging another for doing what you do yourself, are you hoping that God's decision will not take effect against you?
