I thank my God for all the memories I have of you.
You were slaves to sin. But I thank God that you have become wholeheartedly obedient to the teachings which you were given.
I always thank God for you because Christ Jesus has shown you God’s good will.
We can never thank God enough for all the joy you give us as we rejoice in God’s presence.
We always have to thank God for you, brothers and sisters. It’s right to do this because your faith is showing remarkable growth and your love for each other is increasing.
I constantly remember you in my prayers night and day when I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience as my ancestors did.
