1 Thessalonians 5:19-25

19Do not quench [subdue, or be unresponsive to the working and guidance of] the [Holy] Spirit.

20Do not scorn or reject gifts of prophecy or prophecies [spoken revelations—words of instruction or exhortation or warning].

21But test all things carefully [so you can recognize what is good]. Hold firmly to that which is good.

22Abstain from every form of evil [withdraw and keep away from it].

23Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through [that is, separate you from profane and vulgar things, make you pure and whole and undamaged—consecrated to Him—set apart for His purpose]; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept complete and [be found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

24Faithful and absolutely trustworthy is He who is calling you [to Himself for your salvation], and He will do it [He will fulfill His call by making you holy, guarding you, watching over you, and protecting you as His own].

25Brothers and sisters, pray for us.
