Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:

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

Salute Apelles approved in Christ. Salute them which are of Aristobulus' household.

For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
