Chapter 13: Be Grounded in Faith and Unity

Therefore, strive to be grounded in the teachings of the Lord and the apostles, so that everything you do may prosper, both physically and spiritually, in faith and love, with your most admirable bishop, and the well-organized spiritual assembly of your presbytery, and the deacons who are according to God. Be subject to the bishop, and to one another, as Christ is to the Father, so that there may be unity according to God among you.
