1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

Great(i) 1 Furthermore, we beseche you (brethren) and exhorte you by the Lord Iesus, that ye increace more & more euen as ye haue receaued of vs, how ye ought to walcke and to please God. 2 For ye knowe, what commaundementes we gaue you by oure Lorde Iesu Christ. 3 For this is the wyll of God euen youre holynes, that ye shuld abstayne from fornicacyon, 4 & that euery one of you shuld knowe how to kepe his vessell in holynes and honoure, 5 and not in the lust of concupiscence as do the hethen which know not God, 6 that noman oppresse and defraude his brother in bargaynyng: because that the Lord is the auenger of all soch thinges, as we tolde you before, and testifyed. 7 For God hath not called vs vnto vnclennes but vnto holynes. 8 He therfore that despyseth, despyseth not man, but God, whych hath sent his holy sprete amonge you.
