^3 (A)Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our ^(B)common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you ^(C)contend earnestly for ^(D)the faith that was once for all time ^(E)handed down to ^(F)the ^[a]saints.

^12 (A)Fight the good fight of ^(B)faith; ^(C)take hold of the eternal life ^(D)to which you were called, and for which you made the good ^(E)confession in the presence of ^(F)many witnesses.
