Now these things,
brethren, I have figuratively transferred to myself and Apollos for
your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is
written, that none of you may be puffed up on behalf of one against
the other.

I Thessalonians 2:13-17, New King James Version
13 But we are
bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the
Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through
sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth,
14 to which He
called you by our gospel, for the obtaining of the glory of your Lord
Jesus Christ.
15 Therefore,
brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught,
whether by word or our epistle.
16 Now may our
Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us
and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace,
17 comfort your
hearts and establish you in every good word and work.
I Thessalonians 5:12-22, New King James Version
12 And we urge
you, brethren, to recognize those who labor among you, and are over
you in the Lord and admonish you,
13 and to esteem
them very highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among
yourselves.
14 Now we exhort
you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted,
uphold the weak, be patient with all.
15 See that no
one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good
both for yourselves and for all.
16 Rejoice
always,
17 Pray without
ceasing,
18 in everything
give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
19 Do not quench
the Spirit.
20 Do not
despise prophecies.
21 Test all
things; hold fast what is good.
22 Abstain from
every form of evil.
