Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ being confident of this very thing, that he who has begun a good work in you, will carry it on till the day of Jesus Christ; ⁷ as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; both in my bonds and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel, I say I have you all in my heart as being joint par takers of my grace. ⁸ For God is my witness how ardently I love you with the affection of Christ Jesus. ⁹ I also pray for this, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all understanding, ¹⁰ in order that you may distinguish things that differ, to the end that you may be pure and blameless till the day of Christ, ¹¹ being filled with the fruit of righteousness, which fruit is by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
