if

If ye haue heard of the dispensation of the grace of God, which is giuen me to youward:

If so be that ye haue heard him, and haue bene taught by him, as the trueth is in Iesus,

But if I liue in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shal chuse, I wote not.

¶ If there bee therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of loue, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels, & mercies;

Yea, and if I bee offered vpon the sacrifice and seruice of your faith, I ioy, and reioyce with you all.

If by any meanes I might attaine vnto the resurrection of the dead.

Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Iesus.

Let vs therefore, as many as bee perfect, bee thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shal reueale euen this vnto you.

Finally, brethren, whatsoeuer things are true, whatsoeuer things are honest, whatsoeuer things are iust, whatsoeuer things are pure, whatsoeuer things are louely, whatsoeuer things are of good report: if there bee any vertue, and if there bee any praise, thinke on these things:
