Now
concerning the collection for the saints: as I directed the churches of
Galatia, so you also are to do. On the first day of every week, each of you is
to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will
be no collecting when I come. And when I arrive, I will send those whom you
accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem. If it seems advisable that
I should go also, they will accompany me.
Be
watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do
be done in love.
I
rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they
have made up for your absence, for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours.
Give recognition to such people.
Love one another.
Love one another in encouraging one
onother and giving to the advancement of the Kingdom.
