The last times are come upon us. Let us therefore be of a reverent spirit, and fear the long-suffering of God, that it tend not to our condem- nation. For let us either stand in awe of the wrath to come, or show regard for the grace which is at pres- ent displayed — one of two things. Only [in one way or another] let us be found in Christ Jesus unto the true '• ' life. Apart from Him, let nothing attract ''' you, for whom I bear about these bonds, these spiritual jewels, by^ which may I arise through your pray- ers, of which I entreat I may always be a partaker, that I may be found in the lot of the Christians of Ephesus, who have always been of the same mind with the apostles through the power of Jesus Christ.
