Epistles

Let not those that appear to be plausible, but[*](Against heretics) teach strange doctrine, overthrow you. Stand firm as an anvil which is smitten. The task of great athletes is to suffer punishment and yet conquer. But especially must we endure all things for the sake of God, that he also may endure us.

Be more diligent than you are. Mark the seasons. Wait for him who is above seasons, timeless, invisible, who for our sakes became visible, who cannot be touched, who cannot suffer, who for our sakes accepted suffering, who in every way endured for our sakes.

Let not the widows be neglected. Be yourself their protector after the Lord. Let nothing be done[*](His duty to members of the church)
