27Onely let your conuersation bee as it becommeth the Gospel of Christ, that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may heare of your affaires, that yee stand fast in one spirit, with one minde, striuing together for the faith of the Gospel, 28And in nothing terrified by your aduersaries, which is to them an euident token of perdition: but to you of saluation, and that of God. 29For vnto you it is giuen in the behalfe of Christ, not onely to beleeue on him, but also to suffer for his sake, 30Hauing the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now heare to be in me.
