“Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.”
What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me — put into practice, and the God of peace will be with you — Paul's life is the curriculum: learn, receive, hear, see from him. 'Seen in me' (horaō en emoi) is direct observation. 'Put into practice' (pratsō, do, enact) turns observation to imitation. 'The God of peace will be with you' is promised result: practice produces peace-presence. The ethical transformation is relational: they follow Paul who follows Christ.
