11  And now, my friends, good-bye!
   Strive for perfection; listen to my appeals;

   And the God of love and peace will be with
   you.
12  Greet one another with the kiss of peace.

Final Warnings and Greetings

     2 Corinthians 13:11-13


Strive for perfection.
That is, make perfection your goal.

In verse 9, this is Paul's prayer for the Corinthians.
Not only that, it is also the command of Christ:
"Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect"
(Matthew 5:48).

Be of one mind.
All God's people are all the Christians with Paul at the time he is writing this letter.
