Therefore I beseech you, be followers of me.
Not because we have not that right, but to make ourselves an example unto you to follow us.
Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them who so walk, since you have us for an example.
Be followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
And you became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit:
Remember them who have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their manner of life.
Those things, which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
