既至、召集會眾、縷述天主假手所行諸事；且謂天主已為異邦人洞開信道之門矣。

曩者吾曾至特羅亞傳基督福音。托主之力、門戶洞開；

亦乞為吾儕祈求天主、為我洞開傳道之門、

爾其寓書於斐拉代非教會之守護天神曰：彼至聖至真掌握大維之管籥所啟無人能閉、所閉無人能啟者、有所曉諭於爾：吾知爾之行實。識之哉、吾已置一洞開之門於爾前、人莫得而閉焉。蓋爾力量薄弱、竟能篤守吾道、而未背棄吾名。識之哉、

吾儕在亞西亞所遭遇之患難、不欲兄弟不之知也。當時吾儕所受之困阨、實非人力之所能當者、且自謂必不能倖免矣。然吾人之所以被處於絕境、以至於自分必死者、乃欲吾人勿恃本身之力量、而恃起死回生之天主耳。天主既脫吾儕於萬死、且至今猶時時予以保障、故吾儕將一切希望託付於主、深信其必保障到底。

蓋方今天下、與基督之十字架為敵者滔滔皆是也。此予已屢為爾曹陳之、今復涕泣為爾等道之；

曩在伊弗所、予曾與猛獸格鬥矣；若依人之常情而論、我亦何樂而為此？若死者無復活、則『人生有酒須當醉、明日死來萬事休；』

葆樂入會堂、侃侃而言；歷三月、暢論天主國之理、以資勸化。惟尚有人頑梗難化、終不之信、且當眾詆毀聖道；葆樂捨之、並命信徒亦與之絕；而日於諦郎尼書院辯難析疑。如是者二年、亞細亞居民、無論猶太、希臘、咸得聞主之道。
