nkjv@Romans:1:5 @ Through Him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for His name,

nkjv@Romans:1:7 @ To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers,

nkjv@Romans:1:10 @ making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you.

nkjv@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established--

nkjv@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

nkjv@Romans:1:13 @ Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but was hindered until now), that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles.

nkjv@Romans:1:15 @ So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.

nkjv@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

nkjv@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

nkjv@Romans:1:21 @ because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

nkjv@Romans:1:22 @ Professing to be wise, they became fools,

nkjv@Romans:1:25 @ who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:1:26 @ For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.

nkjv@Romans:1:27 @ Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, 1men with 1men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

nkjv@Romans:1:31 @ undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;

nkjv@Romans:1:32 @ who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

nkjv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.

nkjv@Romans:2:2 @ But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.

nkjv@Romans:2:3 @ And do you think this, O man, you who judge those practicing such things, and doing the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?

nkjv@Romans:2:5 @ But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

nkjv@Romans:2:16 @ in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.

nkjv@Romans:2:24 @ For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," as it is written.

nkjv@Romans:2:25 @ For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

nkjv@Romans:2:26 @ Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision?

nkjv@Romans:2:29 @ but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.

nkjv@Romans:3:3 @ For what if some did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faithfulness of God without effect?

nkjv@Romans:3:4 @ Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written: "That You may be justified in Your words, And may overcome when You are judged."

nkjv@Romans:3:8 @ And why not say, "Let us do evil that good may come"?--as we are slanderously reported and as some affirm that we say. Their condemnation is just.

nkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one."

nkjv@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

nkjv@Romans:3:26 @ to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

nkjv@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.

nkjv@Romans:4:9 @ Does this blessedness then come upon the circumcised only, or upon the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:4:18 @ who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, "So shall your descendants be."

nkjv@Romans:5:6 @ For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

nkjv@Romans:5:7 @ For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.

nkjv@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned--

nkjv@Romans:5:14 @ Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.

nkjv@Romans:5:16 @ And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification.

nkjv@Romans:5:18 @ Therefore, as through one man's offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man's righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.

nkjv@Romans:6:13 @ And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

nkjv@Romans:6:18 @ And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:6:19 @ I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves of uncleanness, and of lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness.

nkjv@Romans:6:21 @ What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.

nkjv@Romans:6:22 @ But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.

nkjv@Romans:7:4 @ Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another--to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.

nkjv@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death.

nkjv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead.

nkjv@Romans:7:9 @ I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

nkjv@Romans:7:10 @ And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death.

nkjv@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.

nkjv@Romans:7:12 @ Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.

nkjv@Romans:7:13 @ Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.

nkjv@Romans:7:17 @ But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

nkjv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.

nkjv@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

nkjv@Romans:7:21 @ I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good.

nkjv@Romans:7:23 @ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

nkjv@Romans:7:24 @ O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?

nkjv@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

nkjv@Romans:8:4 @ that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:8:18 @ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

nkjv@Romans:8:29 @ For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.

nkjv@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,

nkjv@Romans:9:1 @ I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according to the flesh,

nkjv@Romans:9:5 @ of whom are the fathers and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, the eternally blessed God. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:9:9 @ For this is the word of promise: "At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son."

nkjv@Romans:9:15 @ For He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion."

nkjv@Romans:9:16 @ So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.

nkjv@Romans:9:17 @ For the Scripture says to the Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth."

nkjv@Romans:9:18 @ Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.

nkjv@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? For who has resisted His will?"

nkjv@Romans:9:20 @ But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, "Why have you made me like this?"

nkjv@Romans:9:21 @ Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

nkjv@Romans:9:23 @ and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory,

nkjv@Romans:9:26 @ "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, "You are not My people,' There they shall be called sons of the living God."

nkjv@Romans:9:29 @ And as Isaiah said before: "Unless the LORD of Sabaoth had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah."

nkjv@Romans:9:33 @ As it is written: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

nkjv@Romans:10:11 @ For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

nkjv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

nkjv@Romans:10:13 @ For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

nkjv@Romans:10:17 @ So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

nkjv@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaiah is very bold and says: "I was found by those who did not seek Me; I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me."

nkjv@Romans:11:4 @ But what does the divine response say to him? "I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal."

nkjv@Romans:11:5 @ Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

nkjv@Romans:11:9 @ And David says: "Let their table become a snare and a trap, A stumbling block and a recompense to them.

nkjv@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Romans:11:14 @ if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them.

nkjv@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,

nkjv@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

nkjv@Romans:11:25 @ For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

nkjv@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

nkjv@Romans:11:30 @ For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience,

nkjv@Romans:11:31 @ even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy.

nkjv@Romans:11:32 @ For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.

nkjv@Romans:11:33 @ Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!

nkjv@Romans:11:34 @ "For who has known the mind of the LORD? Or who has become His counselor?"

nkjv@Romans:11:36 @ For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:12:1 @ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

nkjv@Romans:12:2 @ And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

nkjv@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

nkjv@Romans:12:4 @ For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function,

nkjv@Romans:12:5 @ so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.

nkjv@Romans:12:8 @ he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

nkjv@Romans:12:16 @ Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

nkjv@Romans:12:17 @ Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men.

nkjv@Romans:12:18 @ If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.

nkjv@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

nkjv@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.

nkjv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.

nkjv@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not covet," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

nkjv@Romans:13:10 @ Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

nkjv@Romans:13:11 @ And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.

nkjv@Romans:14:10 @ But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

nkjv@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written: "As I live, says the LORD, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God."

nkjv@Romans:14:18 @ For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.

nkjv@Romans:14:21 @ It is good neither to eat meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles or is offended or is made weak.

nkjv@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me."

nkjv@Romans:15:8 @ Now I say that Jesus Christ has become a servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers,

nkjv@Romans:15:9 @ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written: "For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles, And sing to Your name."

nkjv@Romans:15:15 @ Nevertheless, brethren, I have written more boldly to you on some points, as reminding you, because of the grace given to me by God,

nkjv@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, to make the Gentiles obedient--

nkjv@Romans:15:20 @ And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build on another man's foundation,

nkjv@Romans:15:23 @ But now no longer having a place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you,

nkjv@Romans:15:24 @ whenever I journey to Spain, I shall come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.

nkjv@Romans:15:28 @ Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them this fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain.

nkjv@Romans:15:29 @ But I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

nkjv@Romans:15:30 @ Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in prayers to God for me,

nkjv@Romans:15:32 @ that I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may be refreshed together with you.

nkjv@Romans:15:33 @ Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church in Cenchrea,

nkjv@Romans:16:7 @ Greet Andronicus and Junia, my countrymen and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

nkjv@Romans:16:14 @ Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren who are with them.

nkjv@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil.

nkjv@Romans:16:20 @ And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:16:21 @ Timothy, my fellow worker, and Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my countrymen, greet you.

nkjv@Romans:16:24 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:16:26 @ but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith--

nkjv@Romans:16:27 @ to God, alone wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:2 @ To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:8 @ who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:25 @ Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption--

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:13 @ each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:21 @ Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours:

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:22 @ whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come--all are yours.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by a human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:4 @ For I know of nothing against myself, yet I am not justified by this; but He who judges me is the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each one's praise will come from God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last, as men condemned to death; for we have been made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:11 @ To the present hour we both hunger and thirst, and we are poorly clothed, and beaten, and homeless.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:13 @ being defamed, we entreat. We have been made as the filth of the world, the offscouring of all things until now.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore I urge you, imitate me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:18 @ Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills, and I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles--that a man has his father's wife!

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:10 @ Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:12 @ All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not!

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For "the two," He says, "shall become one flesh."

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning the things of which you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:6 @ But I say this as a concession, not as a commandment.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:7 @ For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:18 @ Was anyone called while circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Was anyone called while uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:19 @ Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:23 @ You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning virgins: I have no commandment from the Lord; yet I give judgment as one whom the Lord in His mercy has made trustworthy.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:29 @ But this I say, brethren, the time is short, so that from now on even those who have wives should be as though they had none,

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But she is happier if she remains as she is, according to my judgment--and I think I also have the Spirit of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, there is not in everyone that knowledge; for some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But beware lest somehow this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never again eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:3 @ My defense to those who examine me is this:

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:8 @ Do I say these things as a mere man? Or does not the law say the same also?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for it would be better for me to die than that anyone should make my boasting void.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win the more;

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:20 @ and to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might win Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might win those who are under the law;

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:22 @ to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:3 @ all ate the same spiritual food,

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:6 @ Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:7 @ And do not become idolaters as were some of them. As it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play."

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:9 @ nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:10 @ nor complain, as some of them also complained, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I speak as to wise men; judge for yourselves what I say.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:23 @ All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no questions for conscience' sake;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:1 @ Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now in giving these instructions I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better but for the worse.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Therefore when you come together in one place, it is not to eat the Lord's Supper.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I do not praise you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread;

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death till He comes.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Therefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I will set in order when I come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For in fact the body is not one member but many.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:19 @ And if they were all one member, where would the body be?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:22 @ No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:10 @ But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ Therefore, if I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be a foreigner to him who speaks, and he who speaks will be a foreigner to me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written: "With men of other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me," says the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Or did the word of God come originally from you? Or was it you only that it reached?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ After that He was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:7 @ After that He was seen by James, then by all the apostles.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:8 @ Then last of all He was seen by me also, as by one born out of due time.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If, in the manner of men, I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantage is it to me? If the dead do not rise, "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!"

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But someone will say, "How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?"

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain--perhaps wheat or some other grain.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ And so it is written, "The first man Adam became a living being." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I come, whomever you approve by your letters I will send to bear your gift to Jerusalem.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:4 @ But if it is fitting that I go also, they will go with me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia (for I am passing through Macedonia).

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ And it may be that I will remain, or even spend the winter with you, that you may send me on my journey, wherever I go.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ And if Timothy comes, see that he may be with you without fear; for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brethren, but he was quite unwilling to come at this time; however, he will come when he has a convenient time.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:22 @ If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come!

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:24 @ My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of our trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I intended to come to you before, that you might have a second benefit--

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:16 @ to pass by way of you to Macedonia, to come again from Macedonia to you, and be helped by you on my way to Judea.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:17 @ Therefore, when I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be Yes, Yes, and No, No?

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us--by me, Silvanus, and Timothy--was not Yes and No, but in Him was Yes.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:23 @ Moreover I call God as witness against my soul, that to spare you I came no more to Corinth.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:1 @ But I determined this within myself, that I would not come again to you in sorrow.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I make you sorrowful, then who is he who makes me glad but the one who is made sorrowful by me?

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote this very thing to you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow over those from whom I ought to have joy, having confidence in you all that my joy is the joy of you all.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me, but all of you to some extent--not to be too severe.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:6 @ This punishment which was inflicted by the majority is sufficient for such a man,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened to me by the Lord,

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as some others, epistles of commendation to you or letters of commendation from you?

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men;

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believed and therefore I spoke," we also believe and therefore speak,

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory,

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:6 @ So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ For we do not commend ourselves again to you, but give you opportunity to boast on our behalf, that you may have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you." Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:5 @ in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:13 @ Now in return for the same (I speak as to children), you also be open.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For indeed, when we came to Macedonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were troubled on every side. Outside were conflicts, inside were fears.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming, but also by the consolation with which he was comforted in you, when he told us of your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced even more.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it; though I did regret it. For I perceive that the same epistle made you sorry, though only for a while.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For observe this very thing, that you sorrowed in a godly manner: What diligence it produced in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what vehement desire, what zeal, what vindication! In all things you proved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if in anything I have boasted to him about you, I am not ashamed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, even so our boasting to Titus was found true.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his affections are greater for you as he remembers the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling you received him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:13 @ For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened;

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack--that there may be equality.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:20 @ avoiding this: that anyone should blame us in this lavish gift which is administered by us--

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:21 @ providing honorable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If anyone inquires about Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker concerning you. Or if our brethren are inquired about, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Now concerning the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you;

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ lest if some Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we (not to mention you!) should be ashamed of this confident boasting.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go to you ahead of time, and prepare your generous gift beforehand, which you had previously promised, that it may be ready as a matter of generosity and not as a grudging obligation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ while, through the proof of this ministry, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal sharing with them and all men,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I, Paul, myself am pleading with you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--who in presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ But I beg you that when I am present I may not be bold with that confidence by which I intend to be bold against some, who think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:5 @ casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I should boast somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord gave us for edification and not for your destruction, I shall not be ashamed--

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appointed us--a sphere which especially includes you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not overextending ourselves (as though our authority did not extend to you), for it was to you that we came with the gospel of Christ;

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ not boasting of things beyond measure, that is, in other men's labors, but having hope, that as your faith is increased, we shall be greatly enlarged by you in our sphere,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:16 @ to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's sphere of accomplishment.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For not he who commends himself is approved, but whom the Lord commends.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ Oh, that you would bear with me in a little folly--and indeed you do bear with me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted--you may well put up with it!

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was present with you, and in need, I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:10 @ As the truth of Christ is in me, no one shall stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, let no one think me a fool. If otherwise, at least receive me as a fool, that I also may boast a little.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To our shame I say that we were too weak for that! But in whatever anyone is bold--I speak foolishly--I am bold also.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they ministers of Christ?--I speak as a fool--I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:24 @ From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:28 @ besides the other things, what comes upon me daily: my deep concern for all the churches.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, was guarding the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desiring to arrest me;

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:1 @ It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord:

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ For though I might desire to boast, I will not be a fool; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, lest anyone should think of me above what he sees me to be or hears from me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become a fool in boasting; you have compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you; for in nothing was I behind the most eminent apostles, though I am nothing.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For what is it in which you were inferior to other churches, except that I myself was not burdensome to you? Forgive me this wrong!

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Now for the third time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be burdensome to you; for I do not seek yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus, and sent our brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same spirit? Did we not walk in the same steps?

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found by you such as you do not wish; lest there be contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, backbitings, whisperings, conceits, tumults;

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and I shall mourn for many who have sinned before and have not repented of the uncleanness, fornication, and lewdness which they have practiced.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This will be the third time I am coming to you. "By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established."

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have told you before, and foretell as if I were present the second time, and now being absent I write to those who have sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare--

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, who is not weak toward you, but mighty in you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the authority which the Lord has given me for edification and not for destruction.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:14 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@Galatians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised Him from the dead),

nkjv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brethren who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:

nkjv@Galatians:1:5 @ to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@Galatians:1:7 @ which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:10 @ For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:11 @ But I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.

nkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God beyond measure and tried to destroy it.

nkjv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me through His grace,

nkjv@Galatians:1:16 @ to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,

nkjv@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

nkjv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.

nkjv@Galatians:1:23 @ But they were hearing only, "He who formerly persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy."

nkjv@Galatians:1:24 @ And they glorified God in me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:1 @ Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and also took Titus with me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:2 @ And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain.

nkjv@Galatians:2:3 @ Yet not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.

nkjv@Galatians:2:4 @ And this occurred because of false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage),

nkjv@Galatians:2:6 @ But from those who seemed to be something--whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no man--for those who seemed to be something added nothing to me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:7 @ But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel for the uncircumcised had been committed to me, as the gospel for the circumcised was to Peter

nkjv@Galatians:2:8 @ (for He who worked effectively in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised also worked effectively in me toward the Gentiles),

nkjv@Galatians:2:9 @ and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.

nkjv@Galatians:2:10 @ They desired only that we should remember the poor, the very thing which I also was eager to do.

nkjv@Galatians:2:11 @ Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed;

nkjv@Galatians:2:12 @ for before certain men came from James, he would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

nkjv@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain."

nkjv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree" ),

nkjv@Galatians:3:14 @ that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

nkjv@Galatians:3:15 @ Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man's covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it.

nkjv@Galatians:3:17 @ And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, that it should make the promise of no effect.

nkjv@Galatians:3:19 @ What purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was appointed through angels by the hand of a mediator.

nkjv@Galatians:3:20 @ Now a mediator does not mediate for one only, but God is one.

nkjv@Galatians:3:23 @ But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed.

nkjv@Galatians:3:25 @ But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

nkjv@Galatians:4:2 @ but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.

nkjv@Galatians:4:3 @ Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.

nkjv@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

nkjv@Galatians:4:9 @ But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?

nkjv@Galatians:4:12 @ Brethren, I urge you to become like me, for I became like you. You have not injured me at all.

nkjv@Galatians:4:14 @ And my trial which was in my flesh you did not despise or reject, but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.

nkjv@Galatians:4:15 @ What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me.

nkjv@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

nkjv@Galatians:4:19 @ My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you,

nkjv@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law?

nkjv@Galatians:5:2 @ Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.

nkjv@Galatians:5:3 @ And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law.

nkjv@Galatians:5:4 @ You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.

nkjv@Galatians:5:8 @ This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you.

nkjv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.

nkjv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!

nkjv@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

nkjv@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

nkjv@Galatians:6:3 @ For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

nkjv@Galatians:6:14 @ But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

nkjv@Galatians:6:16 @ And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.

nkjv@Galatians:6:17 @ From now on let no one trouble me, for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

nkjv@Galatians:6:18 @ Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:7 @ that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh--who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands--

nkjv@Ephesians:2:12 @ that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:15 @ having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:17 @ And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:19 @ Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:2 @ if indeed you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:3 @ how that by revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I have briefly written already,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:6 @ that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ through the gospel,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:7 @ of which I became a minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the effective working of His power.

nkjv@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:9 @ (Now this, "He ascended"--what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?

nkjv@Ephesians:4:22 @ that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore, putting away lying, "Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor," for we are members of one another.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:2 @ And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, so as always to fill up the measure of their sins; but wrath has come upon them to the uttermost.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, having been taken away from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavored more eagerly to see your face with great desire.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ Therefore we wanted to come to you--even I, Paul, time and again--but Satan hindered us.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could no longer endure it, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor might be in vain.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and brought us good news of your faith and love, and that you always have good remembrance of us, greatly desiring to see us, as we also to see you--

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ for you know what commandments we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ For when they say, "Peace and safety!" then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer;

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when He comes, in that Day, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things?

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received from us.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ And if anyone does not obey our word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I urged you when I went into Macedonia--remain in Ephesus that you may charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:5 @ Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:6 @ from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:12 @ And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:13 @ although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:15 @ This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:16 @ However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:17 @ Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:20 @ of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:1 @ Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:4 @ who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:5 @ For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:6 @ who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:8 @ I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;

nkjv@1Timothy:2:9 @ in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing,

nkjv@1Timothy:3:3 @ not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous;

nkjv@1Timothy:3:6 @ not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:10 @ But let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:14 @ These things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly;

nkjv@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,

nkjv@1Timothy:4:8 @ For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:10 @ For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:13 @ Till I come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:15 @ Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:1 @ Do not rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father, younger men as brothers,

nkjv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, with all purity.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:4 @ But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show piety at home and to repay their parents; for this is good and acceptable before God.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:7 @ And these things command, that they may be blameless.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:15 @ For some have already turned aside after Satan.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:24 @ Some men's sins are clearly evident, preceding them to judgment, but those of some men follow later.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:25 @ Likewise, the good works of some are clearly evident, and those that are otherwise cannot be hidden.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:1 @ Let as many bondservants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and His doctrine may not be blasphemed.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:3 @ If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness,

nkjv@1Timothy:6:4 @ he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions,

nkjv@1Timothy:6:5 @ useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:6 @ Now godliness with contentment is great gain.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:9 @ But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:10 @ For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:5 @ when I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:8 @ Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God,

nkjv@2Timothy:1:9 @ who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began,

nkjv@2Timothy:1:12 @ For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:13 @ Hold fast the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:15 @ This you know, that all those in Asia have turned away from me, among whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:16 @ The Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain;

nkjv@2Timothy:1:17 @ but when he arrived in Rome, he sought me out very zealously and found me.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:18 @ The Lord grant to him that he may find mercy from the Lord in that Day--and you know very well how many ways he ministered to me at Ephesus.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:2 @ And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:6 @ The hardworking farmer must be first to partake of the crops.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:8 @ Remember that Jesus Christ, of the seed of David, was raised from the dead according to my gospel,

nkjv@2Timothy:2:15 @ Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:17 @ And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort,

nkjv@2Timothy:2:18 @ who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:19 @ Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity."

nkjv@2Timothy:2:20 @ But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for honor and some for dishonor.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:26 @ and that they may come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

nkjv@2Timothy:3:1 @ But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:

nkjv@2Timothy:3:2 @ For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

nkjv@2Timothy:3:6 @ For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

nkjv@2Timothy:3:7 @ always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

nkjv@2Timothy:3:8 @ Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith;

nkjv@2Timothy:3:11 @ persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra--what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me.

nkjv@2Timothy:3:13 @ But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:3 @ For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;

nkjv@2Timothy:4:6 @ For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:8 @ Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:9 @ Be diligent to come to me quickly;

nkjv@2Timothy:4:10 @ for Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica--Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:11 @ Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for ministry.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:13 @ Bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas when you come--and the books, especially the parchments.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:14 @ Alexander the coppersmith did me much harm. May the Lord repay him according to his works.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:16 @ At my first defense no one stood with me, but all forsook me. May it not be charged against them.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that the message might be preached fully through me, and that all the Gentiles might hear. Also I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:18 @ And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!

nkjv@Titus:2:2 @ that the older men be sober, reverent, temperate, sound in faith, in love, in patience;

nkjv@Titus:2:3 @ the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things--

nkjv@Titus:2:4 @ that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

nkjv@Titus:2:5 @ to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed.

nkjv@Titus:2:6 @ Likewise, exhort the young men to be sober-minded,

nkjv@Titus:2:8 @ sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you.

nkjv@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels did He ever say: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You"? And again: "I will be to Him a Father, And He shall be to Me a Son"?

nkjv@Hebrews:1:7 @ And of the angels He says: "Who makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire."

nkjv@Hebrews:1:11 @ They will perish, but You remain; And they will all grow old like a garment;

nkjv@Hebrews:1:12 @ Like a cloak You will fold them up, And they will be changed. But You are the same, And Your years will not fail."

nkjv@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:5 @ For He has not put the world to come, of which we speak, in subjection to angels.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:12 @ saying: "I will declare Your name to My brethren; In the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You."

nkjv@Hebrews:2:13 @ And again: "I will put My trust in Him." And again: "Here am I and the children whom God has given Me."

nkjv@Hebrews:2:14 @ Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:15 @ and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore, in all things He had to be made like His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:4 @ For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:9 @ Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me, And saw My works forty years.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end,

nkjv@Hebrews:3:16 @ For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses?

nkjv@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since therefore it remains that some must enter it, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter because of disobedience,

nkjv@Hebrews:4:7 @ again He designates a certain day, saying in David, "Today," after such a long time, as it has been said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts."

nkjv@Hebrews:4:11 @ Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest taken from among men is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become High Priest, but it was He who said to Him: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You."

nkjv@Hebrews:5:6 @ As He also says in another place: "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek";

nkjv@Hebrews:5:7 @ who, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His godly fear,

nkjv@Hebrews:5:9 @ And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him,

nkjv@Hebrews:5:10 @ called by God as High Priest "according to the order of Melchizedek,"

nkjv@Hebrews:5:11 @ of whom we have much to say, and hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:2 @ of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:5 @ and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:6 @ if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:7 @ For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God;

nkjv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:12 @ that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:16 @ For men indeed swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation is for them an end of all dispute.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:17 @ Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:20 @ where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

nkjv@Hebrews:7:2 @ to whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all, first being translated "king of righteousness," and then also king of Salem, meaning "king of peace,"

nkjv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And indeed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham;

nkjv@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:10 @ for he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?

nkjv@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is yet far more evident if, in the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another priest

nkjv@Hebrews:7:16 @ who has come, not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:17 @ For He testifies: "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek."

nkjv@Hebrews:7:18 @ For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness,

nkjv@Hebrews:7:21 @ (for they have become priests without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: "The LORD has sworn And will not relent, "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek"'),

nkjv@Hebrews:7:22 @ by so much more Jesus has become a surety of a better covenant.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:25 @ Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;

nkjv@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfected forever.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this One also have something to offer.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:11 @ None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, "Know the LORD,' for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more."

nkjv@Hebrews:9:5 @ and above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:9 @ It was symbolic for the present time in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot make him who performed the service perfect in regard to the conscience--

nkjv@Hebrews:9:10 @ concerned only with foods and drinks, various washings, and fleshly ordinances imposed until the time of reformation.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a testament is in force after men are dead, since it has no power at all while the testator lives.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore, when He came into the world, He said: "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, But a body You have prepared for Me.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, "Behold, I have come-- In the volume of the book it is written of Me-- To do Your will, O God."'

nkjv@Hebrews:10:9 @ then He said, "Behold, I have come to do Your will, O God." He takes away the first that He may establish the second.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:11 @ And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:13 @ from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:17 @ then He adds, "Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more."

nkjv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:27 @ but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:28 @ Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

nkjv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:

nkjv@Hebrews:10:33 @ partly while you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while you became companions of those who were so treated;

nkjv@Hebrews:10:34 @ for you had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your goods, knowing that you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves in heaven.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:37 @ "For yet a little while, And He who is coming will come and will not tarry.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise;

nkjv@Hebrews:11:12 @ Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born as many as the stars of the sky in multitude--innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:15 @ And truly if they had called to mind that country from which they had come out, they would have had opportunity to return.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:16 @ But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones.

nkjv@James:1:1 @ James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad: Greetings.

nkjv@James:1:2 @ My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials,

nkjv@James:1:3 @ knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.

nkjv@James:1:4 @ But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

nkjv@James:1:5 @ If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

nkjv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.

nkjv@James:1:7 @ For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;

nkjv@James:1:8 @ he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

nkjv@James:1:9 @ Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation,

nkjv@James:1:10 @ but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he will pass away.

nkjv@James:1:11 @ For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits.

nkjv@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

nkjv@James:1:13 @ Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.

nkjv@James:1:14 @ But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.

nkjv@James:1:15 @ Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

nkjv@James:1:16 @ Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.

nkjv@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.

nkjv@James:1:18 @ Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures.

nkjv@James:1:19 @ So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;

nkjv@James:1:20 @ for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.

nkjv@James:1:21 @ Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

nkjv@James:1:22 @ But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

nkjv@James:1:23 @ For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;

nkjv@James:1:24 @ for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

nkjv@James:1:25 @ But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

nkjv@James:1:26 @ If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless.

nkjv@James:1:27 @ Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

nkjv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with partiality.

nkjv@James:2:2 @ For if there should come into your assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes,

nkjv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, "You sit here in a good place," and say to the poor man, "You stand there," or, "Sit here at my footstool,"

nkjv@James:2:4 @ have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

nkjv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

nkjv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you into the courts?

nkjv@James:2:7 @ Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you are called?

nkjv@James:2:8 @ If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well;

nkjv@James:2:9 @ but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

nkjv@James:2:10 @ For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.

nkjv@James:2:11 @ For He who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

nkjv@James:2:12 @ So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty.

nkjv@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

nkjv@James:2:14 @ What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?

nkjv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,

nkjv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warmed and filled," but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?

nkjv@James:2:17 @ Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

nkjv@James:2:18 @ But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

nkjv@James:2:19 @ You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe--and tremble!

nkjv@James:2:20 @ But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

nkjv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?

nkjv@James:2:22 @ Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?

nkjv@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness." And he was called the friend of God.

nkjv@James:2:24 @ You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

nkjv@James:2:25 @ Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

nkjv@James:2:26 @ For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

nkjv@James:3:1 @ My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment.

nkjv@James:3:2 @ For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.

nkjv@James:3:3 @ Indeed, we put bits in horses' mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body.

nkjv@James:3:4 @ Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires.

nkjv@James:3:5 @ Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles!

nkjv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.

nkjv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind.

nkjv@James:3:8 @ But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

nkjv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God.

nkjv@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

nkjv@James:3:11 @ Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening?

nkjv@James:3:12 @ Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.

nkjv@James:3:13 @ Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.

nkjv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.

nkjv@James:3:15 @ This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic.

nkjv@James:3:16 @ For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.

nkjv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

nkjv@James:3:18 @ Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

nkjv@James:4:1 @ Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members?

nkjv@James:4:2 @ You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask.

nkjv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.

nkjv@James:4:4 @ Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

nkjv@James:4:5 @ Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously"?

nkjv@James:4:6 @ But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble."

nkjv@James:4:7 @ Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

nkjv@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

nkjv@James:4:9 @ Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.

nkjv@James:4:10 @ Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.

nkjv@James:4:11 @ Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

nkjv@James:4:12 @ There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?

nkjv@James:4:13 @ Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit";

nkjv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

nkjv@James:4:15 @ Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that."

nkjv@James:4:16 @ But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

nkjv@James:4:17 @ Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

nkjv@James:5:1 @ Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you!

nkjv@James:5:2 @ Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten.

nkjv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days.

nkjv@James:5:4 @ Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.

nkjv@James:5:5 @ You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter.

nkjv@James:5:6 @ You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.

nkjv@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.

nkjv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

nkjv@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!

nkjv@James:5:10 @ My brethren, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering and patience.

nkjv@James:5:11 @ Indeed we count them blessed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord--that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.

nkjv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your "Yes" be "Yes," and your "No," "No," lest you fall into judgment.

nkjv@James:5:13 @ Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms.

nkjv@James:5:14 @ Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

nkjv@James:5:15 @ And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

nkjv@James:5:16 @ Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

nkjv@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.

nkjv@James:5:18 @ And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.

nkjv@James:5:19 @ Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back,

nkjv@James:5:20 @ let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.

nkjv@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

nkjv@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone,"

nkjv@1Peter:2:14 @ or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do good.

nkjv@1Peter:2:15 @ For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men--

nkjv@1Peter:2:19 @ For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully.

nkjv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.

nkjv@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you;

nkjv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.

nkjv@1Peter:4:16 @ Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.

nkjv@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?

nkjv@1Peter:5:6 @ Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time,

nkjv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

nkjv@1Peter:5:11 @ To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nkjv@2Peter:1:14 @ knowing that shortly I must put off my tent, just as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me.

nkjv@2Peter:1:17 @ For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

nkjv@2Peter:1:18 @ And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.

nkjv@2Peter:1:19 @ And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;

nkjv@2Peter:1:21 @ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@2Peter:2:2 @ And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed.

nkjv@2Peter:2:3 @ By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.

nkjv@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;

nkjv@2Peter:2:8 @ (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds)--

nkjv@2Peter:2:9 @ then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment,

nkjv@2Peter:2:13 @ and will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you,

nkjv@2Peter:2:19 @ While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage.

nkjv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning.

nkjv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

nkjv@2Peter:3:2 @ that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior,

nkjv@2Peter:3:3 @ knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts,

nkjv@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

nkjv@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

nkjv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

nkjv@2Peter:3:12 @ looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

nkjv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;

nkjv@2Peter:3:16 @ as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.

nkjv@2Peter:3:18 @ but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.

nkjv@1John:1:5 @ This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.

nkjv@1John:2:3 @ Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.

nkjv@1John:2:4 @ He who says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

nkjv@1John:2:7 @ Brethren, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

nkjv@1John:2:8 @ Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

nkjv@1John:2:12 @ I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake.

nkjv@1John:2:13 @ I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, little children, Because you have known the Father.

nkjv@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, And you have overcome the wicked one.

nkjv@1John:2:18 @ Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.

nkjv@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

nkjv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

nkjv@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another,

nkjv@1John:3:22 @ And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.

nkjv@1John:3:23 @ And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

nkjv@1John:3:24 @ Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

nkjv@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

nkjv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

nkjv@1John:4:4 @ You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

nkjv@1John:4:12 @ No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

nkjv@1John:4:17 @ Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.

nkjv@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

nkjv@1John:4:20 @ If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

nkjv@1John:4:21 @ And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

nkjv@1John:5:2 @ By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments.

nkjv@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.

nkjv@1John:5:4 @ For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.

nkjv@1John:5:5 @ Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

nkjv@1John:5:6 @ This is He who came by water and blood--Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.

nkjv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son.

nkjv@1John:5:13 @ These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

nkjv@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

nkjv@1John:5:21 @ Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

nkjv@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

nkjv@2John:1:4 @ I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.

nkjv@2John:1:5 @ And now I plead with you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another.

nkjv@2John:1:6 @ This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.

nkjv@2John:1:10 @ If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him;

nkjv@2John:1:12 @ Having many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.

nkjv@2John:1:13 @ The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.

nkjv@3John:1:3 @ For I rejoiced greatly when brethren came and testified of the truth that is in you, just as you walk in the truth.

nkjv@3John:1:7 @ because they went forth for His name's sake, taking nothing from the Gentiles.

nkjv@3John:1:8 @ We therefore ought to receive such, that we may become fellow workers for the truth.

nkjv@3John:1:10 @ Therefore, if I come, I will call to mind his deeds which he does, prating against us with malicious words. And not content with that, he himself does not receive the brethren, and forbids those who wish to, putting them out of the church.

nkjv@3John:1:12 @ Demetrius has a good testimony from all, and from the truth itself. And we also bear witness, and you know that our testimony is true.

nkjv@3John:1:14 @ but I hope to see you shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace to you. Our friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.

nkjv@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, To those who are called, sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ:

nkjv@Jude:1:2 @ Mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.

nkjv@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;

nkjv@Jude:1:8 @ Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries.

nkjv@Jude:1:13 @ raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.

nkjv@Jude:1:14 @ Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, "Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints,

nkjv@Jude:1:15 @ to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."

nkjv@Jude:1:17 @ But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:

nkjv@Jude:1:18 @ how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts.

nkjv@Jude:1:21 @ keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

nkjv@Jude:1:22 @ And on some have compassion, making a distinction;

nkjv@Jude:1:23 @ but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh.

nkjv@Jude:1:25 @ To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
