Being mindful of your love and of your zeal in Christ, which ye have manifested towards us, we thought it fitting to write to you, who display such a godly and spiritual iove to the brethren,^ to put you in remembrance of your Christian course,^ " that ye all speak the same thing, being of one mind, thinking the same thing, and walk- ing by the same rule of faith," ■♦ as Paul ad- monished you. For if there is one God of the universe, the Father of Christ, "of whom are all things; "5 and one Lord Jesus Christ, our [Lord], "by whom are all things ;" 5 and also one Holy Spirit, who wrought ^ in Moses, and in the prophets and apostles ; and also one baptism, which is administered that we should have fellow- ship with the death of the Lord ; ^ and also one elect Church ; there ought likewise to be but one faith in respect to Christ. For " there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism ; one God and Father of all, who is through all, and in all." **
