I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloued sonnes I warne you.

For though you haue ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet haue yee not many fathers: For in Christ Iesus I haue begotten you through the Gospel.

Wherefore I beseech you, be yee followers of me.

For this cause haue I sent vnto you Timotheus, who is my beloued sonne, and faithfull in the Lord, who shal bring you into remembrance of my wayes which be in Christ, as I teach euery where in euery Church.

Nowe some are puffed vp as though I would not come to you.

But I wil come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will knowe, not the speach of them which are puffed vp, but the power.

For the kingdome of God is not in word, but in power.

What will ye? Shall I come vnto you with a rod, or in loue, and in the spirit of meekenesse?
