2 Thessalonians 1:3

But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God;

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

But now when Timotheus came from you unto us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you:

Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;

Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.

I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;
