Praise God for all of you who have committed yourself to Jesus Christ; I salute you and pay tribute to you for standing firm in the face of unjustified criticism. Those who dishonor the church with their disgraceful behavior, and let me assure you that God will deal with them, are but few. To those who are sincere and committed I say well done and may God continue to bless you and keep you as you continue in the blessed church of Christ.
