1
Moreover, brethren, we do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;
2
How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.
3
For to their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of themselves;
4
Praying us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.
5
And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.
6
Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.
7
Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.
8
I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

14
And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace of God in you.
15
Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

5
Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;

15
If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
16

17
Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
1 John 3:14-17
14
We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.
15
Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
16
Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17
But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
