wmth@1Corinthians:4:12 @ Homes we have none. Wearily we toil, working with our own hands. When reviled, we bless; when persecuted, we bear it patiently;

wmth@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep our festival not with old yeast nor with the yeast of what is evil and mischievous, but with bread free from yeast–the bread of transparent sincerity and of truth.

wmth@Ephesians:6:12 @ For ours is not a conflict with mere flesh and blood, but with the despotisms, the empires, the forces that control and govern this dark world–the spiritual hosts of evil arrayed against us in the heavenly warfare.

wmth@Colossians:1:21 @ And you, estranged as you once were and even hostile in your minds, amidst your evil deeds,

wmth@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is better that you should suffer for doing right, if such be God's will, than for doing evil;

wmth@1Peter:4:15 @ But let not one of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evil-doer, or as a spy upon other people's business.

wmth@1Peter:5:8 @ Curb every passion, and be on the alert. Your great accuser, the Devil, is going about like a roaring lion to see whom he can devour.

wmth@1John:5:19 @ We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the Evil one.

wmth@2John:1:11 @ He who bids him Farewell is a sharer in his evil deeds.

wmth@Jude:1:8 @ Yet in just the same way these dreamers also pollute the body, while they set authority at naught and speak evil of dignities.
