Don’t act as if you were a ruler over those under your care. Instead, be examples to the flock.

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young. Set an example for the believers in what you say and in how you live. Also set an example in how you love and in what you believe. Show the believers how to be pure.

Instead, we have given up doing secret and shameful things. We don’t twist God’s word. In fact, we do just the opposite. We present the truth plainly. In the sight of God, we make our appeal to everyone’s sense of what is right and wrong.

Here is what we take pride in. Our sense of what is right and wrong tells us how we have acted. We have lived with honor and godly honesty. We have depended on God’s grace and not on the world’s wisdom. We lived that way most of all when we were dealing with you.

Then you will be able to know what is best. Then you will be pure and without blame for the day that Christ returns.

We worked, even though we have the right to receive help from you. We did it in order to be a model for you to follow.

Unlike many people, we aren’t selling God’s word to make money. In fact, it is just the opposite. Because of Christ we speak honestly before God. We speak like people God has sent.

May grace be given to everyone who loves our Lord Jesus Christ with a love that will never die.

I am not commanding you to do it. But I want to test you. I want to find out if you really love God. I want to compare your love with that of others.

I haven’t longed for anyone’s silver or gold or clothing.You yourselves know that I have used my own hands to meet my needs. I have also met the needs of my companions.In everything I did, I showed you that we must work hard and help the weak. We must remember the words of the Lord Jesus. He said,‘ It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”
