7For God hath not giuen vs the spirit of feare, but of power, of loue, and of a sound minde. 8Bee not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but bee thou partaker of the afflictions of the Gospel according to the power of God, 9Who hath saued vs, and called vs with an holy calling, not according to our workes, but according to his owne purpose and grace, which was giuen vs in Christ Iesus, before the world began, 10But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Sauiour Iesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortalitie to light, through the Gospel: 11Whereunto I am appointed a Preacher, and an Apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
