Our Charge:
Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
but in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience,
When?
in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, in stripes, in imprisonments,
in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;
How?
by pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness,
by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, by the word of truth, by the power of God,
by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
What will I have to suffer?
by honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report:
as deceivers, and yet true; as unknown, and yet well known;
as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; as sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing;
as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
