I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.

Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.

Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.

Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again;

Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
