Ὑμεῖς, ye) who have begun to believe, although the rest believe not.-μείνητε, ye will continue) Act 13:43, “Many proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.”-ἀληθῶς, indeed) It is not enough to have begun. So ὄντως, in deed; Joh 8:36, “Ye shall be free indeed.”-ἐστέ) ye are so already: only see that you continue so.
