older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, with all purity.
For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven, he is My brother and sister and mother."
Finally, brothers, as many things as are true, as many as are honorable, as many as are just, as many as are pure, as many as are lovely--if there is any virtue and if there is any praise--meditate on these things.
Abstain from every form of evil.
Let no one despise your youth, but become a pattern for the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father, younger men as brothers,
Honor widows who are really widows.
Flee youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
