King James Version KJV
22 So let's do it - full of belief, confident that we're presentable inside and out.
22
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let's keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word.
23
Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out,
24
And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25 not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching.
25
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
