Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;
Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
