## Finally ##

This ends this section of the letter. Paul now goes on to  give a summary of how believers should live to have peace with God.

## whatever things are lovely ##

"whatever things are pleasing"

## whatever things are of good report ##

"whatever things that people admire" or "whatever things that people respect"

## if there is any excellence in them ##

"if they are morally good"

## and if there is any praise in them ##

"and if they are a cause for praise"

## think on these things ##

"think about these things"

## that you have learned, received, heard, and have seen in me ##

"that I have taught and shown you"
