I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. -- Ye shall be holy unto me: for I the Lord am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should he mine.
Ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power. -- Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity. -- Be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord. -- Whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. -- Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. -- Teaching us that denying ungodliness and wordly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world. -- Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. -- Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect.
Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. -- For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledege of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.
