Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love.
Paul writes these words as a part of the closing of the first letter to the Corinthians. Paul has given the Corinthian church some tough teachings in this letter. He has spoken very specifically to issues and problems they were experiencing, but as a brother, he wrapps things up with encouragement and love.
Lord, thank you for direct teaching in your word. Please help us to follow these parting words: "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love". Amen.
