mnt@Romans:1:5 @ It is through him, even Jesus Christ our Lord, that I received grace and apostleship to promote obedience to the faith among all the Gentiles, for his names sake;

mnt@Romans:1:7 @ To all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints. May God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, bless you, and give you peace.

mnt@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that I with you may be encouraged by you, each of us by the others faith, yours and mine.

mnt@Romans:1:14 @ To Greeks and to barbarians, to the cultured and to the uncultured, I have a debt to discharge.

mnt@Romans:1:16 @ FOR I AM PROUD OF THE GOSPEL. IT IS GODS SAVING POWER FOR EVERY ONE WHO BELIEVES. FOR THE JEW FIRST, AND ALSO FOR THE GENTILE.

mnt@Romans:1:18 @ For Gods wrath is ever being revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who smother the truth by their unrighteousness.

mnt@Romans:1:20 @ For ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his everlasting power and divinity, has been clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made. So they have no excuse.

mnt@Romans:1:21 @ For although they knew God, yet they did not glorify him as God, nor give him thanks; but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened.

mnt@Romans:1:23 @ and exchanged the majesty of the imperishable God for an idol, graven in the likeness of perishable man, or of birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.

mnt@Romans:1:25 @ because they exchanged the truth of God for an untruth, and worshiped and served the creature, rather than the Creator who is blessed forever. Amen.

mnt@Romans:1:26 @ That is why God has given them up to passions of dishonor; for on the one hand their women actually changed the natural function of sex into that which is against nature;

mnt@Romans:1:27 @ and on the other hand their men likewise abandoned the natural use of women, and were ablaze with passion for one another; men with men practising shameless acts and receiving in their own person that recompense of their wrong-doing which necessarily followed.

mnt@Romans:1:28 @ And just as they refused to continue to retain God in their knowledge, so did God cast them out to an outcast mind, to do those things which were indecent.

mnt@Romans:1:29 @ They were overflowing with every kind of iniquity, depravity, greed, and malice. They were full of envy, murder, quarreling, deceit, and malignity.

mnt@Romans:2:3 @ Very well; and do you suppose, you who judge those that practise such vices, and are doing the very same, that you will elude the judgment of God?

mnt@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and long patience? Do you not know that the kindness of God is leading you to repentance?

mnt@Romans:2:5 @ In your hardness and impenitence of heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath on the Day of Wrath, when the righteous judgment of God is revealed.

mnt@Romans:2:7 @ eternal life to those who by patience in well-doing strive for glory and honor and immortality;

mnt@Romans:2:8 @ but anger and wrath upon those who are self-willed and disobey the truth, but obey unrighteousness.

mnt@Romans:2:9 @ Anguish and calamity will be upon every soul of man who practises evil, upon the Jew first, and also upon the Gentile;

mnt@Romans:2:10 @ but glory and honor and peace to every man who does good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile.

mnt@Romans:2:12 @ For all who have sinned without law will also perish without law; and all who have sinned under law will be judged by law.

mnt@Romans:2:14 @ For when Gentiles, who have no law, obey by natural instinct the commands of the Law, they even though they have no law, are a law to themselves.

mnt@Romans:2:17 @ Now if you bear the name of a Jew, and rely upon law, and boast yourself in God,

mnt@Romans:2:18 @ and know his will, and can test the things that differ; if you are instructed out of the Law,

mnt@Romans:2:19 @ and are confident that you yourself are a darkness,

mnt@Romans:2:20 @ an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of the young, because you have in the Law the form of knowledge and of the truth - well then, you who are teaching others, do you ever teach yourself?

mnt@Romans:2:27 @ And shall not those who are physically uncircumcised, but who keep the Law, condemn you who are a breaker of the Law, although you have a written law and circumcision?

mnt@Romans:2:28 @ For the real Jew is not the man who is one outwardly, and the real circumcision is not outward in the flesh;

mnt@Romans:2:29 @ but the real Jew is one inwardly, and real circumcision is heart- circumcision, spiritual, not literal, praised not by men, but by God.

mnt@Romans:3:4 @ By no means! Be sure that God is ever true, though all mankind prove false. As it is written, That thou mayest be found just in thine argument, And gain thy cause when thou contendest.

mnt@Romans:3:8 @ And why not say (as I myself am slanderously reported to say), "Let us do evil that good may come out of it"? Such arguments are rightly condemned.

mnt@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we Jews in a better position? Not at all, for I have already charged all, both Jews and Gentiles, with being under sin.

mnt@Romans:3:11 @ There is none that understands, none that seeks for God!

mnt@Romans:3:14 @ Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

mnt@Romans:3:16 @ Destruction and ruin are in their paths;

mnt@Romans:3:17 @ And the path of peace they have not known.

mnt@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law; so that every mouth may be shut, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

mnt@Romans:3:21 @ But now, quite apart from any law, a righteousness coming from God has been fully brought to light, continually witnessed to by the Law and the Prophets.

mnt@Romans:3:22 @ I mean a righteousness coming from God through faith in Jesus Christ, for all who believe. For there is no distinction between Jew and Gentile,

mnt@Romans:3:23 @ since all have sinned and lack the glory which comes from God;

mnt@Romans:3:26 @ I say, at this present time; that he himself might be just, and yet the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.

mnt@Romans:3:29 @ Is God then the God of the Jews alone, and not of the Gentiles also? He is God of the Gentiles also,

mnt@Romans:3:30 @ since there is one God who will justify the circumcised through faith, and by their faith will he justify the uncircumcised.

mnt@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then render law invalid through faith? Certainly not; on the contrary we make it stand.

mnt@Romans:4:3 @ For what does Scripture say? And Abraham believed God, and it was set down to his account as righteousness.

mnt@Romans:4:7 @ Blessed he says are they whose iniquities have been forgiven, And whose sins have been covered.

mnt@Romans:4:11 @ and he received circumcision as a sign, a seal of the faith- righteousness which he had while he was in uncircumcision; in order that he might be the father of all who believe, even though they are uncircumcised; so that righteousness might be imputed to them.

mnt@Romans:4:14 @ For if those who are righteous through law are heirs, faith is empty and the promise becomes void.

mnt@Romans:4:16 @ This is why righteousness is of faith, that it may be a free gift; so that the promise stands firm to all Abrahams posterity; not to his children of his faith. For in the sight of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead, and calls into being that which is not, Abraham is the father of us all both Jews and Gentiles,

mnt@Romans:4:19 @ Though he was about a hundred years old, his faith did not fail him when he regarded his own body, now as good as dead. and remembered Sarahs barrenness.

mnt@Romans:4:21 @ and was fully persuaded that what God had promised, he was able also to perform.

mnt@Romans:4:22 @ And so his faith was reckoned to him for righteousness.

mnt@Romans:4:25 @ who was betrayed to death for our transgressions, and raised again to life for our justification.

mnt@Romans:5:1 @ Since we stand justified as the result of faith, let us continue to enjoy the peace we have with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Romans:5:2 @ Through him also we have had our access into this grace in which we have taken our stand, and are exulting in hope of the glory of God.

mnt@Romans:5:3 @ And not only so, but we are actually exulting also even in our troubles; for we know that trouble works fortitude,

mnt@Romans:5:4 @ and fortitude character, and character, hope -

mnt@Romans:5:11 @ And not only that, but we exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now obtained our reconciliation.

mnt@Romans:5:12 @ Thus, then, sin came into the world through one man, and through sin came death and so death spread to all men, because all had sinned.

mnt@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the transgression; for if through the transgression of that one man the rest on men died, much more did the grace of God and the gift given in his grace in the one Man, Jesus Christ, overflow unto the rest of men.

mnt@Romans:5:16 @ And it is not with the free gift as it was through the one that sinned; for the judgment came from one transgression unto condemnation; but the free gift came from many transgressions unto acquittal.

mnt@Romans:5:17 @ For if through the transgression of the one, death reigned as king through the one, much more shall those who receive the overflowing grace and gift of righteousness reign as kings in life through One, through Jesus Christ.

mnt@Romans:5:18 @ It follows then, as through the transgression of one man came condemnation unto all men, even so through the act of righteousness of One came acquittal and life to all men.

mnt@Romans:6:13 @ Do not continue to present any part of your body to sin to be used as a weapon of unrighteousness. On the contrary, be presenting yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and the various parts of your bodies to be used as weapons of righteousness.

mnt@Romans:6:18 @ and being set free from sin, you became the slaves of righteousness -

mnt@Romans:6:19 @ I speak in these homely figures because of the weakness of your fleshly nature - just as you once surrendered your faculties into slavery to impurity and to all lawlessness, so now you must surrender your faculties into slavery to righteousness, unto deeds of holiness.

mnt@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from sin and become slaves of God, the harvest-fruit which you are reaping tends to produce holiness, and it ends is life eternal.

mnt@Romans:7:2 @ For a married woman who has a husband is bound by law to her husband during his lifetime; but if her husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband.

mnt@Romans:7:3 @ So then, if during her husband lifetime, she unites herself with another man, she will be counted an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from the Law, so that she is no adulteress, even if she unites herself with another man.

mnt@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been released from the Law, because we are dead to that in which we were held; so that we are now in thraldom in new and spiritual conditions, and not under the old written code.

mnt@Romans:7:8 @ But when sin had gained a vantage-ground, by means of the commandment, it stirred up within me all manner of lust; for where there is no law, sin is dead.

mnt@Romans:7:9 @ Once I lived apart from the Law, myself; but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died;

mnt@Romans:7:10 @ and the very commandment which should have meant life, this I found to mean death.

mnt@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, when it had gained a vantage-ground through the commandment, beguiled me, and through it slew me.

mnt@Romans:7:12 @ So then the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.

mnt@Romans:7:13 @ Did then that which was good become for me death? Never! but sin did; that it might be manifest as sin, by that the unutterable malignity of sin might become plain through the commandment.

mnt@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the Law is spiritual; but as for me, I am a creature of flesh, bought and sold under the dominion of sin.

mnt@Romans:7:17 @ And now it is longer I myself who do the deed, but it is sin which has its home in me.

mnt@Romans:7:23 @ but I find a different law in my bodily faculties, waging war with the law of my will, and taking me prisoner to that law of sin which is in my bodily faculties.

mnt@Romans:8:2 @ for the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and of death.

mnt@Romans:8:3 @ For God has done what the Law could not do, weakened as it was by flesh. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and on account of sin, he condemned sin in the flesh;

mnt@Romans:8:6 @ To be earthly minded means death; To be spiritually minded means life and peace.

mnt@Romans:8:8 @ And they who are earthly minded cannot please God.

mnt@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ; but to share his glory, we must now be sharing his sufferings.

mnt@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that all nature has been groaning and travailing together until this hour.

mnt@Romans:8:23 @ And not only that, we ourselves, although we are grasping the first- fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves are inwardly groaning, while we are waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.

mnt@Romans:8:27 @ And the Searcher of Hearts knows what the Sprits meaning is, because his intercessions for the saints are according to the will of God.

mnt@Romans:8:30 @ and whom he foreordained, those he also called; and whom he called, those he also justified; and whom he justified, those he also glorified.

mnt@Romans:8:34 @ Who is there to condemn them? Will Christ who died? Yes, and who rose from the dead, The Christ who is also at the right hand of God, And is interceding for us?

mnt@Romans:9:2 @ and incessant anguish in my heart.

mnt@Romans:9:4 @ For they are Israelites; to them belong the sonship, the Shekinah glory, the covenants, the giving of the Law; the service of the temple, and the promises;

mnt@Romans:9:5 @ theirs are the patriarchs, and of them, as concerning the flesh, is Christ, who is over all, God, blessed forever, Amen.

mnt@Romans:9:9 @ For thus is the word of promise, According to this season I will come, and Sarah shall bear a son.

mnt@Romans:9:10 @ And not only so, but when Rebecca was pregnant by our forefather Isaac, though one man was the father of both children,

mnt@Romans:9:11 @ and even though they were still unborn, and had done nothing either good or bad, in order that the purpose of God might stand according to election, not of works, but of Him who called,

mnt@Romans:9:17 @ For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, It is for this very purpose that I have raised you up, To show in you my power, And to proclaim my name far and wide, in all the earth.

mnt@Romans:9:18 @ So then he has mercy on whom he will, and whom he will, he hardens.

mnt@Romans:9:19 @ Then you will say to me. "Why does he still go on finding fault? Who can withstand his will?"

mnt@Romans:9:21 @ Or has not the potter power over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for noble, and another for ignoble uses?

mnt@Romans:9:22 @ But what if God, while intending to show forth his wrath, and to make known his power, yet endured, with much long-suffering, vessels of wrath, fitted to destruction?

mnt@Romans:9:23 @ And what if he thus purposed to make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he had before prepared for glory?

mnt@Romans:9:25 @ As he also said in Hosea. Those who were not my people I will call "my people," And her "beloved" who was not beloved;

mnt@Romans:9:26 @ And in that very spot where it was told them, "You are not my people," There they shall be called "Sons of the living God."

mnt@Romans:9:27 @ And in regard to Israel, Isaiah exclaims. Though the number of the sons of Israel be like the sands of the sea, it is but a remnant of those who shall be saved;

mnt@Romans:9:28 @ for the Lord will execute his word upon the earth, finishing it and cutting it short.

mnt@Romans:9:29 @ Even as in an earlier passage, Isaiah says, Except the Lord of Sabbath had us some few descendants, we should have become like Sodom, and should have fared like Gomorrah.

mnt@Romans:9:32 @ And why? Because they sought it not by faith, but thought to gain it by works. They stumbled at the stone of stumbling;

mnt@Romans:9:33 @ even as it is written. Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; but he that believes on Him shall not be put to shame.

mnt@Romans:10:1 @ Brothers, the longing of my heart and my prayer to God is for my countrymen, that they may be saved.

mnt@Romans:10:3 @ For because they were ignorant of Gods righteousness, and sought to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit themselves to the righteousness of God.

mnt@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? The word is near thee, even in thy mouth and in thy heart. That is the very word of faith which we preach;

mnt@Romans:10:9 @ Confess with your mouth "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God actually raised him from the dead, and you will be saved.

mnt@Romans:10:10 @ For with the heart man believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

mnt@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile, because the same Lord Jesus is all over, and is rich unto all who call upon Him;

mnt@Romans:10:14 @ How then shall thy call upon Him in whom they do not believe? And how are they to believe in One of whom they have never heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

mnt@Romans:10:15 @ And how can men preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring a glad gospel.

mnt@Romans:10:16 @ And yet they did not all hearken to the good news; for Isaiah said, Lord, who hath believed our message?

mnt@Romans:10:17 @ So faith comes from a message heard, and the message comes from the teaching of Christ.

mnt@Romans:10:18 @ But I ask, Did they fail to hear? Yes, truly, Their sound has gone out unto all the earth, And their words unto the ends of the world.

mnt@Romans:10:19 @ But I say, Did Israel not know? First Moses says. I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation; Against a Gentile nation, void of understanding, will I anger you.

mnt@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says, All day long I have been spreading out my hands unto a disobedient and contrary people.

mnt@Romans:11:3 @ Lord, they have killed thy prophets, they have overthrown thine altars; And now I alone am left, and they seek my life.

mnt@Romans:11:4 @ But what was the answer of God to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

mnt@Romans:11:7 @ What then? that which Israel has been seeking for, that he has not obtained; but the chosen have obtained it, and the rest have been hardened.

mnt@Romans:11:9 @ As David says. Let their table be made a snare and a trap, And a stumbling-block and a recompense unto them;

mnt@Romans:11:10 @ Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, And bow thou down their backs forever.

mnt@Romans:11:12 @ Now if their stumbling enriches the world, and their loss enriches the Gentiles, how much more must their fulness do!

mnt@Romans:11:14 @ if by any means I might "provoke to jealousy" my kinsmen, and save some among them.

mnt@Romans:11:16 @ Now if the first-fruits of the dough Abraham and the Patriarchs are holy, so also is the whole mass their descendants. And if the root of a tree Abraham is holy, so also are the branches his descendants.

mnt@Romans:11:17 @ Supposing that some of the branches have been broken off, and you, although you were but a wild olive, have been grafted in among the branches and have become a partaker with them of the fatness of the olive tree, do not glory over the branches;

mnt@Romans:11:20 @ True, through their unbelief they were broken off, and by your faith you stand. Do not be puffed up, but fear;

mnt@Romans:11:22 @ Fix your gaze, therefore, on the goodness and the severity of God; towards those who fell, severity, but towards you, Gods goodness, if you continue stedfast in his goodness; otherwise you, too, will be cut off.

mnt@Romans:11:23 @ And they also those Jews, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in again; for God is able to graft them in again.

mnt@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a mere wild olive tree, and have been grafted, contrary to nature, into a fruitful olive tree, how much more shall these, the natural branches, be regrafted into their own olive tree?

mnt@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written. The deliver will come from Zion, He will banish all ungodliness from Jacob;

mnt@Romans:11:29 @ For no change of purpose can annul Gods free gift and call.

mnt@Romans:11:30 @ And as in times past you were yourselves disobedient to God, but now, thanks to their disobedience, have obtained mercy;

mnt@Romans:11:33 @ Oh, the depths of the riches, both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unfathomable are his judgments, and how unsearchable his paths!

mnt@Romans:11:36 @ For of him and through him, and for him, are all things. All glory to him forever and ever! Amen.

mnt@Romans:12:1 @ I entreat you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies to Him as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God. This is your reasonable service of worship.

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

mnt@Romans:12:4 @ For even as we have many members in one body, and not all members have the same function;

mnt@Romans:12:5 @ so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and we are severally members of one another.

mnt@Romans:12:8 @ Let the teacher give himself to his teaching; and he who exhorts others to his exhortation. He who gives, let him do it in singleness of mind. He who rules, let him rule with diligence; and he who shows mercy must be cheerful.

mnt@Romans:12:14 @ Bless your persecutors, bless, and curse not.

mnt@Romans:12:15 @ Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.

mnt@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore the man who rebels against authority is opposing the divine ordinances; and those who withstand will bring judgment on themselves.

mnt@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are no terror to good deeds, but to evil. Would you be fearless of the rulers authority? Do what is good, and you will have his praise.

mnt@Romans:13:7 @ Render to all their dues; taxes to whom taxes, customs to whom customs, respect to whom respect, and homage to whom homage is due.

mnt@Romans:13:9 @ For the Law which says, Thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt do no murder, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet, and whatever other commandment there be - is all summed up in this one saying, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

mnt@Romans:13:12 @ The night is far spent; The day is at hand. Let is therefore take off the deeds of darkness, Let us put on the armor of light.

mnt@Romans:13:13 @ Let us live honestly, as in the day, Not in reveling and drunkenness, Not in lust and licentiousness, Not is strife and jealousy;

mnt@Romans:13:14 @ But clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, And make no provisions for your earthly nature And the gratification of its lusts.

mnt@Romans:14:3 @ He who eats meat must not despise the man who abstains; and let not the man who abstains judge him who eats; for God has received him.

mnt@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you just that judges the household-servant of another? To his own lord he stands or falls. And stand he will, for his Master has power to make him stand.

mnt@Romans:14:6 @ He who regards the day, regards it unto his Lord; and he who regards it not, disregards it unto his Lord. He who eats meat, eats unto his Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who abstains, abstains unto his Lord, since he, too, gives God thanks.

mnt@Romans:14:7 @ For not one of us lives unto himself, and not one dies unto himself.

mnt@Romans:14:9 @ For this purpose Christ died and became alive again, that he might be the Lord both of the dead and of the living.

mnt@Romans:14:10 @ But you the abstainer, why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you again the non-abstainer, why do you despise yours? For we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God.

mnt@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written, "As I live," says the Lord, "to me every knee shall bow, And to God shall every tongue confess."

mnt@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is in itself unclean; but any food is "unclean" for one who considers it "unclean."

mnt@Romans:14:17 @ For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

mnt@Romans:14:18 @ Those who are slaving for Christ devotedly in these ways, are well pleasing to God and highly commended by man.

mnt@Romans:14:19 @ So then let is eagerly pursue the things that make for peace and the upbuilding of each other.

mnt@Romans:14:23 @ But he who has misgivings, and yet eats meat, is condemned already, because his action is not based on faith; and whatever is not based on faith is sin.

mnt@Romans:15:1 @ Now we who are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to seek our own pleasure.

mnt@Romans:15:4 @ For everything that was written of old has been written for our instruction, that through patience, and through the comfort of the Scriptures, we might have hope.

mnt@Romans:15:5 @ Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be in full sympathy with one another, in accordance with the example of Jesus Christ;

mnt@Romans:15:6 @ so that with one heart and with one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Romans:15:9 @ and so that the Gentiles also should praise God for his mercy, as it is written, Therefore I will offer praise to thee among the Gentiles, And sing to thy name.

mnt@Romans:15:11 @ Or again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles, And let all the people extol him.

mnt@Romans:15:12 @ Or again, as Isaiah says. There shall be the root of Jesse, And he that arises to rule over the Gentiles; On him shall the Gentiles hope.

mnt@Romans:15:13 @ Now the God of all hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may be overflowing with hope in the power of the Holy Spirit.

mnt@Romans:15:14 @ And I myself also am confident regarding you, my brothers, that you yourselves are already full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and well able to give advice to one another.

mnt@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any thing except that which Christ has done through me to bring the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,

mnt@Romans:15:19 @ through the might of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Spirit. So that beginning at Jerusalem and its environs, I have proclaimed without reserve the gospel of Christ, even as far as Illyricum.

mnt@Romans:15:21 @ But, as Scripture says, He shall be seen by those to whom no news about him ever came, And those who have never heard of him shall understand.

mnt@Romans:15:23 @ But now, since I have no more any "opening" in these parts, and since I have longed for many years to come to you

mnt@Romans:15:24 @ whenever I go to Spain, I am hoping to see you on my way there, and to be set forward by you on my way there, and to be set forward by you on my journey thither, after I have enjoyed your company for a little while.

mnt@Romans:15:26 @ For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make an offering for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem.

mnt@Romans:15:27 @ Yes, it has been made their good pleasure, and their debt, too. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual riches, they owe it to them also to minister to them the Jews in worldly goods.

mnt@Romans:15:28 @ When, therefore, I have settled this, and have secured to them the poor at Jerusalem the fruit of this collection, I shall come on by you into Spain.

mnt@Romans:15:29 @ And I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.

mnt@Romans:15:30 @ Brothers, I beseech you, by Jesus Christ our Lord, and by the love which the Spirit gives, to help me in my struggle by your prayers to God on my behalf,

mnt@Romans:15:32 @ and that I may come to you in joy, by the will of God, and find rest together with you.

mnt@Romans:16:2 @ I beg you to give her a Christian welcome, as the saints should; and to assist her in any matter in which she may have need of you. For she herself has been made an overseer to many people, including myself.

mnt@Romans:16:3 @ Salute Priscilla and Aquila, my fellow laborers in the cause of Jesus Christ,

mnt@Romans:16:7 @ and Andronicus and Junia, my kinsfolk and fellow prisoners, who are notable among the apostles, and who became Christians before I did.

mnt@Romans:16:9 @ and Urbanus, my fellow toiler in Christ; and Stachys, my dear, dear friend.

mnt@Romans:16:10 @ Salute Apellas, tested and tried in Christ, and the household of Aristobulus,

mnt@Romans:16:11 @ and Herodion, my kinsman. Salute the believing members of the household of Narcissus.

mnt@Romans:16:12 @ Salute Trypheana and Tryphosa, who are ever toiling in the Lord. Salute dear Persis, who has toiled terribly in the Lords service.

mnt@Romans:16:13 @ Salute Rufus, the chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

mnt@Romans:16:14 @ Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are associated with them.

mnt@Romans:16:15 @ Salute Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, Olympas, and all the saints associated with them.

mnt@Romans:16:17 @ I exhort you, brothers, to keep watch of those who are causing the divisions among you, and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the teaching which you have learned.

mnt@Romans:16:18 @ Turn away from them. For men of that stamp are not the slaves of Christ, but are slaves to their own appetites. By their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the innocent.

mnt@Romans:16:21 @ Timothy, my fellow worker, salutes you; so do my fellow countrymen Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater.

mnt@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius, my host, and the host of the church, salutes you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, salutes you, and so does brother Quartus.

mnt@Romans:16:25 @ Now I commend you to Him who is able to keep you stedfast, according to my gospel, and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, whereby is unveiled the secret truth which was kept secret through immemorial ages,

mnt@Romans:16:26 @ but now has been brought to light, and by command of the eternal God made known to the Gentiles by the scriptures of the Prophets, so that the Gentiles might hold obedience of the faith.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, called by the will of God to be an apostle of Jesus Christ, and Sosthenes, his brother.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:3 @ Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:5 @ that in everything you have been enriched in him, in all speech, and in all knowledge

mnt@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I beg you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to speak in accord, all of you, and to have no divisions among you, but to be knit together in a common mind and temper.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I am thankful to God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

mnt@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not think I baptized any one else. For Christ did not send me forth to baptize, but to proclaim the gospel; and that not in philosophic words, lest the Cross of Christ should be made an empty thing.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For thus it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the philosophers, And the prudence of the prudent will I confound.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:22 @ Jews continue to ask for miracles and Greeks are ever wanting philosophy,

mnt@1Corinthians:1:24 @ but to those who are the called, whether Jews or Greeks, Christ, the power of God and the wisdom of God.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:1:27 @ No, God has chosen the worlds folly to confound its philosophy; and the worlds weakness to confound its strength.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:28 @ The worlds base things has God chosen, and the things that are not, to bring to naught the things that are;

mnt@1Corinthians:1:30 @ It is of him that you are in Christ Jesus, whom God made unto us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,

mnt@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And when I came to you, brothers, I came not to proclaim Gods great secret purpose in fine language of philosophy;

mnt@1Corinthians:2:2 @ for I determined to know nothing, while among you, but Jesus as Christ, and him a crucified Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:3 @ In weakness and fear and great trembling came I among you.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:4 @ My message and my preaching were not in the persuasive language of philosophy, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power;

mnt@1Corinthians:2:6 @ Notwithstanding, among those who are mature I do teach philosophy; though not the philosophy of the present age, nor of its rulers who are coming to nought.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:8 @ None of the rulers of the present age understands it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of Glory.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:14 @ The unspiritual man rejects the teachings of Gods Spirit; for him it is folly. He cannot understand it, for it is spiritually discerned,

mnt@1Corinthians:2:16 @ For what man understands the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct Him?

mnt@1Corinthians:3:3 @ You are not able even now, for you are still unspiritual. While there is among you jealousy and strife, are you not still unspiritual, and behaving like worldlings?

mnt@1Corinthians:3:4 @ When one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere worldlings?

mnt@1Corinthians:3:5 @ What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Just ministers through whom you have believed, and each doing the work that the Lord gave him.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:8 @ Now, though he who plants and he who waters are one, each will receive his own reward, according to his own service.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:9 @ For we are Gods fellow workers; and you are Gods field, you are Gods building.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:11 @ The foundation is already laid - Jesus Christ - and no man can lay another.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:13 @ The Day will disclose it, for it dawns in fire, and the fire will test each mans work, of what quality it is.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If any mans work - the building he has made - stands the test, he will be rewarded.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know what you are Gods sanctuary, and that the Spirit of God is dwelling within you?

mnt@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If any one tear down Gods sanctuary, God will tear him down; for the sanctuary of God is holy, and that is what you are.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:20 @ and again, The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise, how futile they are.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:23 @ and you are Christs, and Christ is Gods.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:1 @ Let any man look upon us as servants of Christ, and stewards of the secret truths of God.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:5 @ So make no hasty judgment until the Lord come, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make plain the purpose of mens hearts. Then each mans due praise will come to him from God.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:6 @ Now these things, brothers, I have applied in a figure to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that in us you might learn not to go beyond what is written; that none of you be puffed up for the one, against the other.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:8 @ But you, forsooth, are already full, are you? You are already rich? Without us you are already reigning? Yes, and I would that you did reign, so that we also might reign with you.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:9 @ But it seems to me that God has exhibited us apostles, last of all, like men doomed to death; for we are made a spectacle to the whole world, both to men and to angels.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:11 @ Even to his very hour we are enduring hunger and thirst and nakedness and blows.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:12 @ Homeless men, we toil, working with our own hands.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ Jesus, you can have but one father. For in Christ Jesus I begot you through the gospel.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:17 @ With this in mind I have sent Timothy to you. He is my dear and faithful son in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways in Christ; the manner in which I ever teach everywhere in every church.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But come to you I will, and that soon, if it please the Lord, and then I shall learn not the talk of these boasters, but their power.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:21 @ Which do you want? Am I to come to you with a rod, or in a loving and tender spirit?

mnt@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and such immorality as is not even among the heathen - that a man has taken his fathers wife!

mnt@1Corinthians:5:2 @ Yet you are puffed up instead of mourning and removing from among you the man who has done this thing.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:4 @ When you are gathered together, and my spirit is with you together with the power of our Lord Jesus,

mnt@1Corinthians:5:5 @ I have handed over such a man to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, that his spirit may be saved, in the day of the Lord Jesus.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:8 @ So let us keep the unending feast, not with any old leaven, neither with leaven of malice and vice, but with unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be tried by you, are you unfit to try such trifling cases?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to shame you. Is it so that there is not among you a single wise man, capable of deciding between a man and his brother?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:6 @ Must brother go to law with brother, and that, too, before unbelievers?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:8 @ On the contrary, you yourselves are inflicting injustice and fraud, and that upon your brothers.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:11 @ Such were some of you, but you have washed away your stains, you have been consecrated, you have been justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:13 @ "Food is meant for the stomach, and the stomach for food"? Yes, but God will soon put an end both to the one and to the other. The body, however, exists not for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body;

mnt@1Corinthians:6:14 @ and the God who raised up our Lord will up-raise us also by his mighty power.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:15 @ You know, do you not, that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of a harlot? God forbid!

mnt@1Corinthians:7:2 @ but because there is so much immorality let each man have his own wife; and let each women have her own husband.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband give his wife her due, and likewise the wife her husband. The wife is not mistress of her own person,

mnt@1Corinthians:7:4 @ but her husband is; and in the same way the husband is not master of his own person, but his wife is.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not refuse one another, unless it is only temporary and by mutual consent, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again, lest through your lack of self-control Satan begin to tempt you to sin.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:6 @ But what I have just said is by way of concession, not command.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But to the unmarried, and the widows, I say that it is well for them to remain as I am.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:10 @ But to those already married my commandment is - and not mine, but the Lords - that a wife is not to leave her husband;

mnt@1Corinthians:7:11 @ (or if she has already left him let her either remain as she is, or be reconciled to him), and also that a husband is not to put away his wife.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And a woman whose husband is not a believer, if he is willing to live with her, let her not separate from him.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is consecrated through union with his believing wife; and the unbelieving wife, through union with her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unholy, but now they are consecrated to God.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving partner be determined to leave, separation let it be. In such cases the believing husband or wife is not under bondage. But it is into peace that God has called us.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:16 @ For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?

mnt@1Corinthians:7:17 @ Only whatever be the lot in life to which God has assigned each one - and whatever the condition in which he was living when God called him- -in that let him continue. Such is the rule I give in all the churches.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:19 @ Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing. Keeping Gods commands in everything.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For the slave who has been called in the Lord is the Lords freedman; and in the same way, the free man who is called is Christs slave.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:25 @ I have no command from the Lord to give you concerning unmarried women; but I give you my opinion, and it is that of a man who, through the Lords mercy, is deserving of your confidence.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:28 @ Yet if you do not marry, you have not done wrong; and if a girl marries, she has not done wrong. Such people, however, will have trouble in worldy affairs, and I wish to spare you.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:31 @ and those who use the world as though using it sparingly. For the present phase of the world is passing away.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:33 @ but a married man is anxious about worldly affairs, how he may please his wife, and he is divided in his mind.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:34 @ Again, the woman who is widow, or the maid, is anxious about the Lords business, how she may be pure in body and in mind; but the married woman is anxious about worldly affairs, how she may please her husband.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:35 @ It is in your own interest that I say this; not that I may entangle you in a snare, but that I may help you to serve the Lord with fitting and undistracted service.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:36 @ If, however, a father feels that he is not treating his virgin daughter in a seemly manner, in leaving her unmarried beyond the flower of her age, and so the matter is urgent, let him do what she desires; he commits no sin. Let the marriage take place.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:37 @ On the other hand, he who is firm in his purpose and is under no compulsion, but is free to carry out his own wishes, and who has determined to keep his daughter unmarried, does well.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So he that gives his daughter in marriage is doing right, and he who keeps her unmarried will be doing right, and he who keeps her unmarried will be doing better.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound to her husband during his lifetime; but if her husband dies, she is free to marry whomever she will, provided it be in the Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But she is happier, in my judgment, if she remains as she is; and I think that I, too, have the Spirit of God.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Now as to eating food that has been offered to idols, we know well that an idol has no real existence in the universe, and that there is no God but One.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For though there be so-called "gods," celestial of terrestrial, as indeed there are gods many and lords many,

mnt@1Corinthians:8:6 @ yet for there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But that "knowledge" is not possessed by all; but some, accustomed until now to the idol, eat food as that which has actually been offered to an idol, and so their conscience, being still weak, is defiled.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:12 @ In so sinning against your brothers, and in ever and again wounding their weak consciences, you are sinning against Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:4 @ Have I no right to claim food and drink?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Have I no right to take a believing wife with me on my journey, as the rest of the apostles and the Lords brothers and Peter do?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Are we the only ones, Barnabas and I, who have no right to give up manual labor?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:7 @ What soldier ever serves at his own expense? What farmer ever plants a vineyard and his flock and does not taste the milk?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Is it the oxen that God is thinking about, or is it really said for our sakes? It was written for us; because the plowman ought to plow in hope, and the thresher in hope of getting a share of the crop.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:13 @ You know, do you not, that those who minister in the temple, and those who serve at the altar, get their portion of the sacrifices?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What then is my wage? This, that I can make the gospel free where I carry it; and that I can refrain from using my rights as a preacher of the gospel.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:22 @ I am become weak to the weak, to win the weak. I am become all these things to all men that, by any and by all means, I may save some.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:23 @ And I am doing it all for the gospels sake, that I may become a copartner in it.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Every man who contends in the games continually trains himself by all manner of self-restraint. Now they do it to get a fading garland, but we, one that is unfading.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:27 @ but I bruise my body and keep it in subjection, lest having called others to the contest, I should myself be disqualified.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:1 @ For I would not have you ignorant, brothers, how our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

mnt@1Corinthians:10:2 @ and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank from the same spiritual stream, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:7 @ And you must not be idolaters like some of them. as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, And they rose up for idol dances.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor must we act licentiously, as some of them did, and fell in a single day, twenty-three thousand of them.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:9 @ Neither must we presume upon the patience of our Lord, as some of them presumed, and were destroyed by the serpents;

mnt@1Corinthians:10:10 @ nor murmur, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the Destroying Angel.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now these things were happening to them typically, but were written down for our admonition who stand at the meeting of the ages.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:12 @ So then let him who imagines that he is standing so securely beware lest he fall.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you that is beyond mans power; but God is faithful, who will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear, but will, with every temptation, provide the way of escape also, so that you may be able to withstand.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:20 @ On the contrary, what the heathen sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have communion with demons.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:21 @ You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and also the cup of demons; you cannot be partakers in the Lords table and in the table of demons.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:26 @ for the earth and its fulness are the Lords.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If one who is not a believer invites you to his house, and you wish to go, eat everything that is set before you, without asking questions for conscience sake.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:29 @ and for your conscience sake - his conscience, not your own. "But," you may object, "why should my freedom be decided upon anothers scruples of conscience?

mnt@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Indeed I praise you for remembering me in everything, and because you are holding fast to the traditions just as you received them.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I wish you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and of a wife her husband is head; and that God is head of Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:5 @ but every woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head (her husband). for it is one and the same thing as if she were shaven.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:7 @ A man, indeed, ought not to have his head veiled, for he is an image and glory of God; but woman is a glory of man.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:9 @ And man was not created for woman, but woman for man.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:18 @ To begin with, I am told - and I believe there is some truth in it - that when you meet at a church there are divisions among you.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must needs be also parties among you, in order that the good may be tested and made known.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Have you no houses in which to eat or drink? or do you wish to show your contempt for the church of God, and to shame those who have no homes to eat in? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? In this I certainly do not praise you.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when he had given thanks, he broke it, saying, "This is my body, broken for you; this do in memory of me."

mnt@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are proclaiming your Lords death until he come.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:27 @ So he that eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthy must answer for a sin against the body and blood of the Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:28 @ Let each man scrutinize himself, and thus let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For whoever eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks condemnation to himself.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:30 @ This is why many among you are feeble and sickly, and many sleep.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Wherefore I want you to understand that no one who speaks in the Spirit of God says, "Jesus is accursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except in the Holy Spirit.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:5 @ there are various forms of service, and the same Lord;

mnt@1Corinthians:12:6 @ and varieties of work, and the same God, who works in all.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But the one and the same Spirit gives power to all, distributing his gifts to each as he wills.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, although they be many, are one body; so also is Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:13 @ And we can see this, for in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jew or Gentile, whether slave or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, "Because I am a hand, I am not part a part the body," would it not indeed be a part of the body?

mnt@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you". nor again of head to the feet, "I have no need for you."

mnt@1Corinthians:12:23 @ upon those parts of the body which we esteem less honorable, we bestow more abundant honor, and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:26 @ When one member suffers, all the others suffer with it; and when one member is honored, all the members are glad with it.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appointed those in the church to be first of all apostles, second, prophets, third, teachers. then workers of miracles, healers, helpers, administrators, users of various kinds of "tongues."

mnt@1Corinthians:12:31 @ Desire earnestly the greater gifts. And yet I will go on to show you a still more excellent way.

mnt@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have no love, I am become a clanging brass, or a clashing cymbal.

mnt@1Corinthians:13:2 @ Though I have the gift of prophecy and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love suffers long and is kind; love envies not; love makes no parade, is not puffed up,

mnt@1Corinthians:13:9 @ For our knowing is imperfect, and our prophesying is imperfect;

mnt@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see as in a mirror, and are baffled, but then face to face; now I know in fragments, but then shall I understand even as I also have been understood.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Hotly pursue this love, yet seek earnestly spiritual gifts, and chiefly that you may prophesy.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in a "tongue" speaks not to man but to God, for no one understands him, but in the Spirit he utters secret truths.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies addresses words to men that build up, encourage, and console.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, let us say, so many languages in the world, and none without its meaning.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:11 @ If then I do not know the force of expression, I shall seem a barbarian to the one who uses it, and he will seem a barbarian to me.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What then? I will pray with my spirit, and I will pray also with my mind. I will praise God with my spirit, but I will praise him with my mind, also.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:17 @ You on the one hand offer a good thanksgiving, but the other is not built up.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:19 @ but in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, so as to instruct others, than ten thousand in an unknown tongue.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brothers, do not become children in understanding; be babes in malice, but in understanding become mature men.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the Law it is written. With men of other tongues, and by the lips of strangers, will I speak to this people, and even then they will not listen to me, says the Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Accordingly, when the whole church assemblies, and everybody is speaking "with tongues," if there enter men unlearned or unbelieving, will they not say that you are mad?

mnt@1Corinthians:14:25 @ and the secret depths of his heart are laid open. So he will fall upon his face and worship God, saying, "Of a truth, God is with you."

mnt@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If any one speaks in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that in turn, and let some one interpret.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no one to interpret, let them keep silence in the church, and speak to themselves and to God.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:29 @ Let the prophets speak by two or three, and let the others exercise their judgment.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you can all prophesy one by one; so that all may be learning, and all may be encouraged.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any one thinks himself a prophet or spiritual, let him recognize that what I am now writing you is a command of the Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:39 @ So, my brothers, be ambitious for the gift of prophecy, and speak not against the gifts of tongues.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:40 @ Let everything be done decently and in order.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Now I am calling to your remembrance, brothers, the gospel which I preached to you, which you also received, and on which you have taken your stand,;47 The first man is of the earth, earthly; the second Man is of heaven.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:4 @ that he was buried, and that he was raised the third day, according to the Scriptures,

mnt@1Corinthians:15:5 @ and was seen by Cephas, and then by the Twelve.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:8 @ and last of all, as by one born out of due time, he was seen by me also.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and that grace of his, bestowed upon me, did not prove ineffectual. I labored more abundantly than all the rest, yet not I, but by the grace of God that is with me.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:11 @ But whether it is I or they, thus do I preach, and thus you came to believe.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:14 @ and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, and vain also is your faith.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:17 @ and if Christ be not risen, your faith is vain, you are still in your sins.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:24 @ And then the end, when he shall hand over his kingdom to God his Father, after he has abolished all rule and authority and power.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:30 @ Yes, and why am I myself exposed to danger every hour?

mnt@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If after the manner of men I have fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what good does it do me? If the dead do not rise, Let us eat and drink, For we shall be dead tomorrow.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will ask. "How are the dead raised? and with what body are they coming?"

mnt@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And when you sow the seed you are not sowing the body that it will become, but bare grain, of wheat perhaps, or some other grain.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it what body he pleases, and to each kind of seed its own body.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:54 @ And when this mortal has been clothed with immortality, then will the words of Scripture come to pass, Death has been swallowed up in victory.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:56 @ Now the sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the Law.

mnt@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For I wrote to you out of much affliction and anguish of heart, through many tears; not to pain you, but to convince you of my love, my abundant love for you.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:13 @ But having the same spirit of faith of which it is written, I believed, and therefore have spoken, I also believe and so I speak.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:14 @ For I know that He who raised from the dead the Lord Jesus, will raise me also with Jesus, and set me at your side in his presence.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I do not say this by way of command, but by the zeal of others I am trying to prove the reality of your love.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And I will give you my opinion in this matter; for this offering is fitting in your case, considering that you made a beginning before others, not only in the willingness to do something but also in actually doing something a year ago.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there be first willing mind, the gift is accepted according to what a man has, and not according to what he has not.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know how ready you are, and am always boasting about you to the Macedonians, telling them that Greece has been ready for a year past; and your zeal has been a spur to the majority of them.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:4 @ For if any Macedonians come with me and find you not ready, shame would come upon me (not to speak of you) in respect to this confidence.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I have thought that I must ask these brothers to visit you beforehand, and get your promised contribution ready in advance. I want it to be given of your bounty, not extorted from your covetousness.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:6 @ Mark this; he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly; and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to give you an overflowing measure of every grace, so that all your wants of every kind may be supplied at all times, and you may give of your abundance to every good work;

mnt@2Corinthians:11:6 @ Yes, though I be unskilled in speech, at least I am not in knowledge; indeed I made this perfectly plain to you in all things and among all men.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:8 @ Other churches I spoiled, and took their wages to do you service.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:9 @ Even when I lacked the actual necessities of life while I was with you, I was a burden to no one; for whatever I lacked, the brothers from Macedonia supplied, when they came. So I kept myself from being a burden to you in any way, and will continue to do so.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:11 @ And why? Because I love you not? God knows I do.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:12 @ I am doing and will continue to do this in order to cut away the ground from under those who wish some cause for slander; and that the ground of their boasting may appear as does mine.

mnt@Galatians:2:1 @ Fourteen years later I went up to Jerusalem again, with Barnabas, and took Titus also with me

mnt@Galatians:2:2 @ (I went up at that time in obedience to a revelation). And I laid before them the gospel which I am wont to preach among the Gentiles. I did this privately before those in authority, lest by any means I should be running, or should already have run, in vain.

mnt@Galatians:2:9 @ and when they recognized the grace which had been given to me, James and Cephas and John, then thought to be pillars, gave to Barnabas and to me the right hand of fellowship. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the Jews.

mnt@Galatians:2:13 @ And the rest of the Jewish Christians also dissimulated with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.

mnt@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not walking a straight path, in the presence of the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all. "If you, although you are a Jew, live like the Gentiles and not like the Jews, why do you try to compel the Gentiles to become Jews?

mnt@Galatians:3:5 @ Does he then who supplies you with his Spirit and works miracles among you, do it because you do what the law commands of because you believe the message heard?

mnt@Galatians:3:6 @ Even as Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness?

mnt@Galatians:3:8 @ And the Scripture, anticipating Gods justification of the Gentiles by faith, announced the gospel to Abraham beforehand in the words, In thee shall all the Gentiles be blessed.

mnt@Galatians:3:11 @ And it is manifest that by the Law no man is justified in the sight of God. because The just shall live by faith,

mnt@Galatians:3:12 @ and the Law has nothing to do with faith, but declares, The man that has done these things shall live therein.

mnt@Galatians:3:15 @ Let me illustrate, brothers, from every-day life. When once a human testament is made, and formally ratified, no one sets it aside or adds to it.

mnt@Galatians:3:16 @ Now it was to Abraham that the promises were spoken, and to his offspring. God did not say, "offsprings" as if speaking of many, but "and to your offspring," as of one; and this is Christ.

mnt@Galatians:3:17 @ I mean to say that the testament which God has already ratified could not be annulled by the Law which came four hundred and thirty years later, so as to make the Promise void.

mnt@Galatians:3:19 @ To what purpose, then, was the Law? It was imposed later for the sake of transgressions, until the "Offspring" should come to whom the promise had been made. It was arranged through angels by the hand of a mediator.

mnt@Galatians:3:28 @ In him there is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

mnt@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you belong to Christ, then you are the descendants of Abraham, heirs according to the promise.

mnt@Galatians:4:2 @ but is under the control of guardians and trustees, until the time appointed by his father.

mnt@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God sent forth the spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, "Dear, dear Father!"

mnt@Galatians:4:7 @ So each one of you is no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir, too, through Gods grace.

mnt@Galatians:4:9 @ Now, however, when you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you are beginning to turn back to those weak and beggarly externalities, eager to be in bondage to them again?

mnt@Galatians:4:10 @ You are scrupulous, are you, in observing "days" and "months" and "seasons" and "years"?

mnt@Galatians:4:14 @ and although my bodily affliction was a trial to you, you did not scoff at it nor spurn me, but welcomed me like an angel of God, like Christ Jesus himself.

mnt@Galatians:4:15 @ Why then did you account yourselves so happy? (For I bear you witness that if you could you would have torn out your own eyes and given them to me.)

mnt@Galatians:4:18 @ It is always an honorable thing to have your favor sought in an honorable cause, always, and not only when I am with you.

mnt@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and one by the free woman;

mnt@Galatians:4:25 @ (for the word Hagar stands for Mt. Sinai in Arabia and represents the present Jerusalem who with her children is in bondage.)

mnt@Galatians:4:26 @ But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.

mnt@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, Rejoice, O thou barren one who dost never bear, Break forth in joy, thou that dost not travail; For the children of the desolate woman are many. Yea, more than hers who has a husband.

mnt@Galatians:4:30 @ But what does the Scripture say? Send away the slave-woman and her son; for the slaves son shall not be heir along with the son of the free woman.

mnt@Galatians:5:1 @ stand firm then, and do not be again entangled in a yoke of bondage.

mnt@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you are always biting and devouring one another, take heed lest you be utterly consumed one by another.

mnt@Galatians:5:16 @ This is my meaning. Let your steps be guided by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

mnt@Galatians:5:17 @ For the desire of the flesh is against that of the Spirit, and the desire of the Spirit is against that of the flesh, for they two are antagonistic, so that you may not do those things that you wish.

mnt@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, drunkenness, revelings, and things like these. I tell you beforehand, as I have already told you, that those who practise such sins shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

mnt@Galatians:5:22 @ But the harvest-fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long- suffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity, gentleness, and self-control;

mnt@Galatians:5:24 @ And those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and appetites.

mnt@Galatians:6:2 @ Ever be bearing one anothers burdens, and so be fulfilling the law of Christ.

mnt@Galatians:6:4 @ Let each one test his own work, and he will then have something to be proud of by comparing himself with himself, and not with any one else;

mnt@Galatians:6:9 @ And let us not be weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.

mnt@Galatians:6:11 @ See with what large letters I have written to you in my own handwriting!

mnt@Galatians:6:14 @ God forbid that I should glory in anything except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, upon which the world has been crucified to me and I have been crucified to the world.

mnt@Galatians:6:16 @ On all who will govern their lives by this rule and on the Israel of God may peace and mercy rest.

mnt@Galatians:6:17 @ From this time forth let no one trouble me, for I bear branded in my body the marks of Jesus, my Master.

mnt@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus and to the faithful in Christ Jesus,

mnt@Ephesians:1:2 @ grace to you and peace from God our father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:1:4 @ Even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world to be holy and without blemish in his sight.

mnt@Ephesians:1:6 @ and to the praise of his glorious grace which he graciously bestowed upon us in the Beloved.

mnt@Ephesians:1:8 @ so abundantly did he lavish upon us the riches of his grace in all wisdom and understanding,

mnt@Ephesians:1:10 @ for the government of the fulness of the ages, that all things in heaven and earth are alike should be gathered up in Christ, as Head.

mnt@Ephesians:1:11 @ It is he in whom we Jews also have our inheritance, having been chosen beforehand according to the purpose of Him who executes all things according to the counsel of his will,

mnt@Ephesians:1:13 @ And in him, because you listened to the proclamation of the truth, the evangel of your salvation, and trusted it, you Gentiles too were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

mnt@Ephesians:1:15 @ For this reason I also, from the time when I heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which prevails among you, and your love to all the saints,

mnt@Ephesians:1:17 @ I am praying that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father most glorious, may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation, through an intimate knowledge of himself;

mnt@Ephesians:1:18 @ and that the eyes of your heart may be flooded with light so that you may understand what is the hope of his calling, what the wealth of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

mnt@Ephesians:1:19 @ and what the surpassing greatness of his might in us who believe, as seen in the energy of that resistless might

mnt@Ephesians:1:20 @ which he exercised in raising Christ from the dead, and in seating him at his right hand in the heavenly heights,

mnt@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all hierarchies and authorities and powers and dominions and every name that is named, not only in this age but in that which is to come.

mnt@Ephesians:1:22 @ God has put all things under Christs feet, and placed him as Head over all in the church,

mnt@Ephesians:2:1 @ And so God has given life to you Gentiles also, who were once dead in your trespasses and sins,

mnt@Ephesians:2:3 @ And among them we all once passed our lives, indulging the passions of our flesh, carrying out the dictates of our senses and temperament, and were by nature the children of wrath like all the rest.

mnt@Ephesians:2:6 @ together with him He raised us from the dead, and together with Christ Jesus seated us in the heavenly realm,

mnt@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is Gods gift.

mnt@Ephesians:2:10 @ for we are his handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good deeds, which God predestined us to make our daily way of life.

mnt@Ephesians:2:11 @ Do not forget then, that you Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "uncircumcision" by the "circumcision" made in flesh by mans hand,

mnt@Ephesians:2:12 @ were once upon a time without Christ, aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, strangers to the covenants of the Promise, without hope and without God in the world.

mnt@Ephesians:2:14 @ For he is our Peace, who has made the two of us Jew and Gentile one, and has broken down the party-wall of partition between us.

mnt@Ephesians:2:15 @ In his own body he abolished the cause of our enmity, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, in order to make the two into one new man in himself, so making peace.

mnt@Ephesians:2:17 @ So he came preaching "Peace" to you Gentiles who were afar off, and "Peace" to us Jews who were near;

mnt@Ephesians:2:19 @ Take notice then that no longer are you strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of Gods household.

mnt@Ephesians:2:20 @ You are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner-stone.

mnt@Ephesians:2:22 @ and in him you, too, are continuously built together for a dwelling- place of God through his Spirit.

mnt@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not disclosed to the sons of men in former generations, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to his holy apostles and prophets,

mnt@Ephesians:3:6 @ namely, that in Christ Jesus the Gentiles form one body with us the Jews, and are coheirs and copartners in the promise, through the gospel.

mnt@Ephesians:3:9 @ and should make all men see the new dispensation of that secret purpose, hidden from eternity in the God who founded the universe,

mnt@Ephesians:3:10 @ in order that now his manifold wisdom should, through the church, be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly sphere,

mnt@Ephesians:3:12 @ In him we have this fearless confidence and boldness of access through our faith in him.

mnt@Ephesians:3:15 @ from whom every fatherhood in heaven and earth is named,

mnt@Ephesians:3:17 @ that Christ may make his home in your hearts through your faith; that you may be so deeply rooted and so firmly grounded in love,

mnt@Ephesians:3:18 @ that you may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is "the breadth," "the length," "the depth," and "the height,"

mnt@Ephesians:3:19 @ and may know the love of Christ which transcends all knowing, so that you may be filled with all the "plenitude" of God.

mnt@Ephesians:3:21 @ to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus, to all generations, world without end, Amen.

mnt@Ephesians:4:2 @ With all humility and gentleness and long-suffering forbear with one another in love;

mnt@Ephesians:4:3 @ and endeavor to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bonds of peace.

mnt@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one spirit, even as also you were called in one hope of your calling.

mnt@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all.

mnt@Ephesians:4:7 @ And to each one of us was grace given according to the measure of the munificence of Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:4:8 @ Thus it is said, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts to men.

mnt@Ephesians:4:11 @ It is he who made some men apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,

mnt@Ephesians:4:13 @ till we all come in the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to the maturity of manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:4:14 @ So we shall no longer be children, tossed up and down, and blown about by every wind of teaching, tricked by the craft of men in the snares of misleading error;

mnt@Ephesians:4:16 @ From him the whole body (knit together and compacted by all its joints) makes continual growth of the body so as to build itself up in love, through the energy of his bounteous provision, according to the need of each several part.

mnt@Ephesians:4:17 @ This then I tell you and implore you in the Masters name, to pass your lives no longer as the Gentiles do in the perverseness of their minds;

mnt@Ephesians:4:18 @ having their understanding darkened, alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts.

mnt@Ephesians:4:21 @ if indeed you have listened to him, and in him been taught the truth as it is in Jesus.

mnt@Ephesians:4:23 @ and to be made new in the spirit of your mind,

mnt@Ephesians:4:24 @ and to put on the new self, created after Gods likeness, in the uprightness and holiness of the truth.

mnt@Ephesians:4:25 @ So then put away falseness and speak every man the truth to his neighbor, for we are members one of another.

mnt@Ephesians:4:26 @ "Be angry and sin not"; let not the sun go down upon your anger.

mnt@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let him who stole steal no more, but let him work, and in honest industry toil with his hands, so that he may have something to give to the needy.

mnt@Ephesians:4:29 @ From your lips let no evil words come forth, but such as occasion warrants, such as are good for upbuilding and give a blessing to the hearers.

mnt@Ephesians:4:30 @ And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you have been sealed for the day of redemption.

mnt@Ephesians:4:31 @ Banish from among you all bitterness and passion and anger and clamor and slander, as well as all malice;

mnt@Ephesians:4:32 @ and be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ has forgiven you.

mnt@Ephesians:5:2 @ and to lead lives of love, just as Christ also loved you and gave himself up for you, an offering and sacrifice unto God, for you, an offering and sacrifice unto God, for "an odor of sweetness."

mnt@Ephesians:5:3 @ As for sexual vice and every kind of impurity or lust, it is unbecoming for you as Christians even to mention them;

mnt@Ephesians:5:4 @ so too with vulgarity and buffoonery and foolish jesting. Such words become you not, but rather thanksgiving.

mnt@Ephesians:5:5 @ For be well assured that no one guilty of fornication or impurity or covetousness which is idolatry, has any heritage in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

mnt@Ephesians:5:9 @ Lead the life of children of light, for the fruit of the light consists in every kind of goodness and uprightness and truth.

mnt@Ephesians:5:11 @ and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of the darkness, but rather expose them.

mnt@Ephesians:5:13 @ but all these things, when exposed, are by the light made manifest, and what is made manifest is light.

mnt@Ephesians:5:14 @ For this reason it is said, "Awake, thou sleeper! Arise from the dead; And Christ shall shine upon thee!"

mnt@Ephesians:5:19 @ when you talk together; with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and with all your hearts making music unto the Lord;

mnt@Ephesians:5:20 @ and at all times for all things give thanks to God, the Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:5:22 @ Wives likewise to their husbands as to the Lord,

mnt@Ephesians:5:23 @ because a husband is the head of his wife even as Christ is head of the church, his body, which he saves.

mnt@Ephesians:5:24 @ But as the church submits itself to Christ, so also wives to their husbands in everything.

mnt@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her,

mnt@Ephesians:5:27 @ so as to present her to himself, the church glorified, without spot or wrinkle or any such blemish; but on the contrary holy and faultless.

mnt@Ephesians:5:28 @ That is how husbands ought to love their wives, as they love their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

mnt@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no man ever yet hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it as Christ does the church;

mnt@Ephesians:5:31 @ For this cause shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

mnt@Ephesians:5:32 @ There is a deep mystery here - I am speaking of Christ and his church.

mnt@Ephesians:5:33 @ But as for you individually, you must each one of you love his own wife exactly as if she were yourself; and the wife, on her part, should reverence her husband.

mnt@Ephesians:6:2 @ Honor your father and mother (this is the first commandment with a promise attached),

mnt@Ephesians:6:3 @ that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the earth.

mnt@Ephesians:6:4 @ And you fathers, do not irritate your children, but bring them up in the nature and admonition of the Lord.

mnt@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with reverence and humility, in singleness of heart as if to Christ himself;

mnt@Ephesians:6:7 @ slaving with good-will from your heart, as for the Lord and not for men;

mnt@Ephesians:6:9 @ And you masters, show the same spirit to your slaves, and stop threatening them; for you know that your masters and theirs is in heaven, and that there is no respect of persons with him.

mnt@Ephesians:6:10 @ Finally, my brothers, let your hearts be strengthened in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

mnt@Ephesians:6:11 @ Put on all the panoply of God, so that you may be able to stand your ground against the stratagems of the devil.

mnt@Ephesians:6:12 @ For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the despotisms, the empires, the rulers of this present darkness, the spirit-hosts of evil in the heavenly realm.

mnt@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore take up the panoply of God, so that when the evil day comes you may be able to withstand them, and having overthrown them all, to stand your ground.

mnt@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand firm then, girt about with the belt of truth, and wearing the breastplate of righteousness,

mnt@Ephesians:6:15 @ and having your feet shod with the stability of the gospel of peace.

mnt@Ephesians:6:16 @ And take up to cover you the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the flaming darts of the Evil One.

mnt@Ephesians:6:17 @ Take likewise the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

mnt@Ephesians:6:18 @ Continue to pray at all times, with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching for it with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

mnt@Ephesians:6:19 @ and for me, that utterance may be given me to open my mouth boldly, and to make known the mystery of the gospel for which I am an ambassador,

mnt@Ephesians:6:20 @ and in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it boldly as I ought to speak.

mnt@Ephesians:6:21 @ But that you also may know my affairs and how I do, Tychicus, my beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make everything known to you.

mnt@Ephesians:6:22 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know about us, and that he may cheer your hearts.

mnt@Ephesians:6:23 @ Peace to the brothers and love, with faith from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, and to the elders and deacons.

mnt@Philippians:1:2 @ Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Philippians:1:7 @ It is but just that I should be thus mindful of you all, because I have you in my heart, and because in these fetters of mine and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel you are all my fellow partners in the privilege.

mnt@Philippians:1:9 @ And it is my prayer that your love may abound yet more and more in intelligence and insight

mnt@Philippians:1:10 @ for testing things that differ, so that you may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ,

mnt@Philippians:1:11 @ being filled with the fruit of righteousness through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God.

mnt@Philippians:1:13 @ Throughout the whole Praetorian guard and among all the others it has become plain that these chains of mine are for the sake of Christ;

mnt@Philippians:1:14 @ and most of the brothers in the Lord, made confident in the Lord through my imprisonment, are much emboldened to speak Gods message with free and fearless confidence.

mnt@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed are preaching Christ out of envy and contentiousness, but others from good-will.

mnt@Philippians:1:18 @ What of it? In any case, whether in pretence or in honest truth, Christ is still preached, and in that I am rejoicing, yes, and will rejoice.

mnt@Philippians:1:19 @ For I know that these things will turn out to my salvation through your prayers and a rich supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

mnt@Philippians:1:20 @ So it is my keen expectation and hope that I shall never feel ashamed, but that with fearless courage, now as hither to, Christ may be magnified in my body, whether by my life or by my death.

mnt@Philippians:1:21 @ For, with me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

mnt@Philippians:1:23 @ but am in a quandary between the two. I am perplexed. I have a strong desire to break camp and to be with Christ, which is far better;

mnt@Philippians:1:25 @ And because I am convinced of this, I know that I shall live, and go on working side by side with you all for your progress and joy in the faith,

mnt@Philippians:1:27 @ Only do lead lives worthy of the gospel of Christ; so that whether I come to see you or hear reports concerning you in my absence, I may know that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one soul, enlisted in a common struggle for the faith of the gospel,

mnt@Philippians:1:28 @ and in no way terrorized by its enemies. For you fearlessness is a clear indication of coming ruin for them, but of salvation for you at the hands of God.

mnt@Philippians:1:30 @ while you wage the same conflict which you once saw in me, and now hear that I maintain.

mnt@Philippians:2:2 @ I entreat you to make my joy overflow by living in harmony; possessing the same love, and with one soul united in one purpose.

mnt@Philippians:2:8 @ More than this, after he had shone himself in human form, he humbled himself in his obedience even to death; yes, and to death on a cross.

mnt@Philippians:2:9 @ And for this God highly exalted him, and graciously bestowed upon him the name which is above every name;

mnt@Philippians:2:10 @ that in the name of Jesus every knee in heaven, on earth, and under the earth should bend,

mnt@Philippians:2:11 @ and every tongue confess that "Jesus Christ is Lord," to the glory of God the Father.

mnt@Philippians:2:12 @ And so, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, with reverence and self- distrust work out your own salvation;

mnt@Philippians:2:13 @ for it is God who, in his good-will is ever working in you both will and deed.

mnt@Philippians:2:14 @ Do everything without grumbling and disputes,

mnt@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may become blameless and innocent, the sons of God, without rebuke in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine like stars in a dark world,

mnt@Philippians:2:17 @ Nay, even if my life is to be poured out as a libation upon the sacrifice and service of you faith,

mnt@Philippians:2:18 @ I will rejoice and congratulate you all; and in the same way you must rejoice and congratulate me.

mnt@Philippians:2:22 @ And you know Timothys worth, how he has shared my servitude in furtherance of the gospel, like a son helping his father.

mnt@Philippians:2:25 @ Epaphroditus, my brother and coworker and fellow soldier, who is your messenger and minister to my needs, I have thought it necessary to send to you;

mnt@Philippians:2:26 @ for he has been homesick for you all, and distressed at your having heard of his illness.

mnt@Philippians:2:27 @ And indeed he was sick nigh unto death; but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also so that I should not have sorrow upon sorrow.

mnt@Philippians:2:28 @ Therefore I have been the more eager to send him, in order that you may rejoice in seeing him again, and that I may have one sorrow less.

mnt@Philippians:2:29 @ Receive him then in the Lord with all joy, and hold in honor men like him;

mnt@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brothers, continue to rejoice in the Lord. To write the same thing is not indeed wearisome to me, and it is safe for you.

mnt@Philippians:3:3 @ For we are the true circumcision, who worship God in the spirit, and make our boast in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in outward rites,

mnt@Philippians:3:8 @ In very truth I count all things but loss compared to the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and esteem them but refuse that I may gain Christ,

mnt@Philippians:3:9 @ and be found in him; not having my own righteousness of the Law, but that alone which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which comes from God, founded upon faith.

mnt@Philippians:3:10 @ I long to know him in the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings, by sharing the likeness of his death;

mnt@Philippians:3:16 @ if only we guide our steps by the standards we have already attained.

mnt@Philippians:3:17 @ Brothers, be comrades in imitating me, and study those whose life and walk is according to the pattern I have set you.

mnt@Philippians:3:18 @ For there are many - as I used often to tell you, and am now telling you even with tears - who live and walk as the enemies of the cross of Christ.

mnt@Philippians:3:19 @ Their end is destruction, their belly is their god, their glory is in their shame, and their minds are set on earthly things.

mnt@Philippians:3:20 @ But commonwealth is in heaven; and it is from heaven also that we are anxiously awaiting a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ,

mnt@Philippians:4:1 @ Stand fast then, brothers, dearly loved and longed for, my joy and my crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved!

mnt@Philippians:4:2 @ Euodia I entreat, and I entreat Syntyche, to be of the same mind of the Lord;

mnt@Philippians:4:3 @ yes, and I beg you also, my true yokefellow, to help them; for these women shared my toil in the furtherance of the gospel, together with Clement, and the rest of my fellow workers whose names are in the book of life.

mnt@Philippians:4:4 @ Rejoice in the Lord alway, and again will I say, rejoice!

mnt@Philippians:4:6 @ Do not worry about anything; but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

mnt@Philippians:4:7 @ and the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will stand guard over your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

mnt@Philippians:4:9 @ Put in practise also what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me; and the God of peace shall be with you.

mnt@Philippians:4:12 @ I know how to live humbly, and I also know how to bear prosperity. In every place and under all circumstances I have been initiated into the secret of fulness and of hunger, of prosperity and of want.

mnt@Philippians:4:14 @ Notwithstanding, you have acted nobly in making yourselves comrades in my trouble.

mnt@Philippians:4:15 @ And you very well know, Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I had left Macedonia, no church but yourselves had fellowship with me in the matter of giving and receiving.

mnt@Philippians:4:16 @ For even while I was still in Thessalonica, you sent once and again for my needs.

mnt@Philippians:4:20 @ Now unto our God and Father be the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

mnt@Philippians:4:22 @ All the saints salute you, and especially the slaves of the Emperors household.

mnt@Colossians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

mnt@Colossians:1:2 @ to the holy and believing brothers in Christ who are in Colosse. Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father.

mnt@Colossians:1:4 @ (since I heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love to all the saints)

mnt@Colossians:1:6 @ And just as it is spreading through the whole world, bearing fruit and increasing, so also is it among you, from the day in which you heard it, and came truly to know the grace of God,

mnt@Colossians:1:8 @ and it is he who has told me of your love for me in the spirit.

mnt@Colossians:1:9 @ For this reason from the day I heard of it I have never ceased to pray for you, asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will with every kind of wisdom and spiritual insight;

mnt@Colossians:1:10 @ that you may walk worthy of the Lord in every kind of pleasing; that you may be fruitful in every kind of good work, and may increase in the knowledge of God;

mnt@Colossians:1:11 @ that you may be strengthened in every kind of strength by the might of his glory for every kind of patience and fortitude with good cheer.

mnt@Colossians:1:13 @ For he has delivered us out of the dominion of the darkness, and transplanted us into the kingdom of his dear Son,

mnt@Colossians:1:16 @ for in him was the universe created, things in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen, thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers; by him and for him all have been created;

mnt@Colossians:1:17 @ and HE IS before all, and in him all things subsist.

mnt@Colossians:1:20 @ and by him it chose to reconcile all things alike on earth or in heaven to himself; making peace by him, through the blood of his cross.

mnt@Colossians:1:21 @ And you, alienated as you once were, hostile at heart in your evil deeds,

mnt@Colossians:1:22 @ he has now in his human body reconciled to God by his death, in order that he may bring you into his presence, holy and unblemished and irreproachable.

mnt@Colossians:1:23 @ And this he will do if, indeed, you continue in the faith, firmly founded and stedfast, and never moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, and which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, that gospel of which I, Paul, was made a minister.

mnt@Colossians:1:24 @ I am now rejoicing in my sufferings on your behalf; and I am filling up in my own body what is yet lacking of the sufferings of Christ in behalf of the church, his Body.

mnt@Colossians:1:26 @ that secret truth, which, although hidden from ages and generations of old, has now been made manifest to his saints.

mnt@Colossians:1:28 @ Him I am ever proclaiming, warning every one and teaching every one, in all wisdom; that I may bring every man into his presence, full grown in Christ.

mnt@Colossians:2:1 @ For I would have you know how great a contest I am waging for you and the brethren in Laodicea, and for all who have never seen my face.

mnt@Colossians:2:2 @ May their hearts be comforted! May they be knit together in love! May they gain in all its riches the full assurance of their understanding! May they come to a perfect knowledge of the secret truth of God, which is Christ himself.

mnt@Colossians:2:3 @ In Him are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge!

mnt@Colossians:2:4 @ And this I say, lest any one should mislead you with enticing words.

mnt@Colossians:2:5 @ For though I am absent from you in body, I am with you in spirit, happy to note your discipline and the solid front of your faith in Christ.

mnt@Colossians:2:7 @ since you are rooted in him, and in him continually built up. Be firmly established in the faith as you were taught it, and continually abound in it with thanksgiving.

mnt@Colossians:2:8 @ Take care lest any man drag you away captive by his philosophy which is a vain deceit, following the traditions of men and the worlds crude notions, and not Christ.

mnt@Colossians:2:10 @ and in him you have your fulness, and he is the Lord of all the principalities and powers.

mnt@Colossians:2:11 @ In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands; even in putting off your sensual nature in Christs own circumcision,

mnt@Colossians:2:13 @ And you also, at one time dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your sensual nature, he has made alive together with himself. For he forgave us all our transgressions,

mnt@Colossians:2:14 @ blotted out the handwriting of ordinances that stood against us and was hostile to us, and took it out of our way, nailing it to his cross.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ for my gospel did not come to you in word only, but in power also, and in the Holy Spirit, and with deep conviction. For you know also the manner in which I behaved myself among you for your sakes.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ Moreover, you began to follow the pattern I set you, and the Lords also, receiving the word with joy in the Holy Spirit, although amid severe persecution.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ Thus you became a pattern to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For the word of the Lord has been sounded forth from you, and its sound has been heard not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place where the tidings of your faith toward God have been spread abroad, so that I have no need to speak of it.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For others, of their own accord, tell about the welcome I had from you, and how you turned to God from your idols, to be slaved of a true and living God,

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ for you remember that although I had already borne ill-treatment and insult at Philippi, I took courage in my God to tell you the gospel of God, in the face of much opposition.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as my fitness to be entrusted with the gospel has been tested and approved by God, I so speak, not to please men, but to please God, who is testing my motives.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ You recall, brothers, my labor and toil; how, while working at my trade day and night, so as not to become a burden to any of you, I proclaimed to you the gospel of God.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses - and so is God - how pure and just and blameless was my behavior among you believers.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ exhorting and imploring and adjuring each one among you to lead a life worthy of the God who called you into his own kingdom and glory.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brothers, began to follow the example of the churches of God in Judea, which are in Christ Jesus; and you in your turn suffered at the hands of your fellow citizens persecutions like to those which they endured from the Jews -

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ The men who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out - they are displeasing to God, and are the enemies of all mankind.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ For that reason I would fain have visited you - I, Paul, again and again - but Satan hindered me.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is my hope, or joy? What is the victors wreath in which I exult? What but your own selves in the presence of our Lord Jesus, at his coming! For you are my pride and my delight.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ And so, when I could no longer bear it, I made up my mind to be left behind at Athens, all alone.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ I sent Timothy, my brother and Gods fellow worker in the gospel of Christ, to strengthen you and to hearten you in your faith.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For even when I was with you I used to tell you beforehand that I was to suffer affliction; and so it proved, as you know.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ So, when I could no longer endure it, I sent to find out about your faith, fearing that the tempter had tempted you and that my labor had been in vain.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has returned from you to me, and has brought good news of your faith and love, and that you are still holding me in affectionate remembrance, always longing to see me as I also am longing to see you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ I have been comforted, my brothers, in regard to you, in spite of all my distress and affliction over your faith.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ For now I am really living, if you are standing firm in the Lord.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ Night and day I am praying earnestly that I may see you face to face, and may perfect whatever is yet lacking in your faith.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct my path to you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ Meanwhile, may the Lord cause you to increase and abound in love toward one another and toward all men, even as I do toward you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ And so may he establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus, with all his saints.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ Finally then, my brothers, I continue to beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that, as you learned of me how to walk so as to please God - and you are actually doing so - that you abound in it yet more and more.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ That each one should learn how to take a wife in purity and honor.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ That no man overreach or take advantage of his brother in such matters, because "the Lord takes vengeance" in all these things, as also I repeatedly forewarned you and testified to you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ Also, that you endeavor to live quietly and to mind your own business, and to work with your hands (as I charged you).

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ So that your conduct may be seemly toward those that are without, and that you may not need help from any man.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we really believe that Jesus died and rose again, so even so will God through Jesus bring with him those also who have fallen asleep.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord himself with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God will descend from heaven. Then the dead in Christ will rise first.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ And afterwards we who are alive, who remain, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ Now as to the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ While men are saying "Peace and safety," then, like birth-pangs upon a woman with child, destruction will come upon them suddenly. In no wise will they escape.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that "the Day" should come upon you like a bandit.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ For you are all sons of light, and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ So then let us not be sleeping as do the rest, but let us be watchful and self-controlled.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:7 @ For those who are sleeping, sleep in the night, and those who are drunken, are drunken in the night.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day be self-controlled, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ So comfort one another, and try to build one another up, as indeed you are doing.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ I entreat you, brothers, to acknowledge those who are toiling among you and are your leaders in the Lord, and give you counsel.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ And, brothers, we urge you to admonish the disorderly, comfort the faint-hearted, sustain the weak, lose patience with none.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ Take care that none of you ever return evil for evil, but always pursue what is kind to one another and to all.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace consecrate you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept altogether faultless until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace to you, and peace from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ I ought always to thank God for you, brothers, as is fitting because of the abundant growth of your faith and of the overflowing love with which every one of you is filled toward one another.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ So that I myself am boasting about you among the churches of God, boasting of the stedfastness and faith which you are displaying in all the troubles and afflictions which you are enduring.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and give to you, who are now troubled, rest, along with me at the unveiling "apocalypse" of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with his mighty angels,

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ They shall suffer punishment, even an eternal destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the brightness of his glorious majesty,

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes to be glorified in his saints, and to be wondered at in all believers, on that Day; (for you also believed our testimony).

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ To this end I am making my constant prayer for you, beseeching God to make you worthy of your calling, and to fulfil mightily every desire of goodness and effort of faith;

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to meet him, I entreat you, brothers,

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be "quickly shaken out of your wits" and not to be agitated either by a spirit or by a message, or by an epistle purporting to be from me, saying, "The Day of the Lord is at hand."

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you by any means. For it will not come until after the Great Apostasy, and the revealing of the Man of Sin, the son of perdition,

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ the adversary, who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God, or is an object of worship; so that he takes his seat in the Temple of God, and vaunts himself as God.

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And now you know what is holding him back, to the end that he may be revealed in his appointed time.

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only there is one who is hindering and will continue to hinder till he be removed;

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ and then the lawless one will be revealed. Him the Lord will consume with the breath of his lips, and destroy with the brightness of his appearing;

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ even he whose coming is according to the energy of Satan, in every power and sign and lying wonder,

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and with all deceit of unrighteousness for those who are perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth for their salvation.

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But for you, brothers, whom the Lord loves, I ought to give thanks to God continually, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation in consecration of the Spirit and belief of the truth.

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ So, brothers, stand fast, and hold fast the teachings which you have been taught by me, whether by word of mouth or by letter.

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ And may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal encouragement and a good hope in grace,

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good work and word.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, brothers, pray on for me, that Gods word may run swiftly, and be glorified as in your own case,

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that I may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for all do not hold the faith.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful; he will stablish you and guard you from the Evil One.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ Now we have fully fixed our faith on you in the Lord, that you are doing and will continue to do what we enjoin.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ May the Lord incline your hearts to the love of God and to the stedfastness of Christ.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ I summon you, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to shun any brother who leads an idle and disorderly life, which is not according to the rule you received from me.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ I did not eat my food as a gift from any man, but in toil and travail, night and day, I worked, so that I might not be a burden to any of you.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ But I hear that there are those of your number who are leading idle and disorderly lives, who are not busy, but mere busybodies.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ Now all such I command and entreat, by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ, to work in quietness. and to earn their own living.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:15 @ and yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ And may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with you all.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ I, Paul, add this greeting in my own handwriting, which is my token in every letter. Thus I write -

mnt@1Timothy:1:1 @ Paul, and apostle of Jesus Christ by command of God our Saviour and Jesus Christ our Hope,

mnt@1Timothy:1:2 @ to Timothy, my true son in the faith; Grace, mercy and peace from God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I begged you when I was setting out for Macedonia, stay where you are at Ephesus, and instruct certain individuals there not to be teaching heterodoxy,

mnt@1Timothy:1:4 @ nor to be paying attention to myths and interminable genealogies, which tend to promote discussions rather than a stewardship entrusted by God, a stewardship which is in faith.

mnt@1Timothy:1:5 @ Now the end of the exhortation is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and an undissembled faith.

mnt@1Timothy:1:6 @ Some have failed here, and have turned aside to empty argument.

mnt@1Timothy:1:7 @ Although they desire to be teachers of the law, they understand neither the words they use nor the subjects they talk about.

mnt@1Timothy:1:9 @ but he must remember that the Law is not enacted for a good man, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the irreligious and sinful, for the godless and profane, for parricides and murderers,

mnt@1Timothy:1:10 @ for the immoral, for sexual perverts, for slave dealers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,

mnt@1Timothy:1:12 @ And I am thankful to Christ Jesus our Lord, who has thus enabled me, that he accounted me faithful, and appointed me to his service,

mnt@1Timothy:1:13 @ although I had formerly been a blasphemer and a persecutor and a doer of outrage. But I obtained mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief.

mnt@1Timothy:1:14 @ And the grace of our Lord overflowed with faith and love that is in Christ Jesus.

mnt@1Timothy:1:15 @ Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that "Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners"! And there is no greater sinner than I!

mnt@1Timothy:1:16 @ Yet for this very cause I obtained mercy, so that in me, the chief of sinners, Jesus Christ might display all his boundless patience as an illustration for those who should later believe in him, and so gain life eternal.

mnt@1Timothy:1:17 @ Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be glory and honor forever and ever. Amen!

mnt@1Timothy:1:19 @ keeping fast hold of faith and a good conscience; which certain individuals have cast aside, and so made shipwreck of their faith.

mnt@1Timothy:1:20 @ Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have given over to Satan, so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.

mnt@1Timothy:2:1 @ First of all then, I am urging that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be offered regularly for all men;

mnt@1Timothy:2:2 @ for kings and all who are in authority, in order that we may lead a tranquil and peaceful life in all godliness an gravity.

mnt@1Timothy:2:3 @ For this is good and pleasing in the eyes of our Saviour God,

mnt@1Timothy:2:4 @ whose will it is that all men should be saved, and come into full knowledge of the truth.

mnt@1Timothy:2:5 @ For God is one; and one is mediator between God and man, the Man Christ Jesus,

mnt@1Timothy:2:7 @ It was for this testimony that I myself was appointed a herald and apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), to be a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

mnt@1Timothy:2:8 @ My wish, then, is that in every place the men should offer prayer, lifting up holy hands, free from anger and disputation;

mnt@1Timothy:2:9 @ in like manner also the women. I desire women to clothe themselves in suitable apparel, adorning themselves with reverence and self- restraint; not with hair plaited with gold or pearls, or with expensive clothes,

mnt@1Timothy:2:15 @ Notwithstanding she will be saved by the Child-bearing; (so will they all), if they live in faith and love and holiness, with self- restraint.

mnt@1Timothy:3:2 @ The minister should be a man of blameless character; he should be husband of but one wife; he should live a sober, self-restrained, orderly life; he should be hospitable, skilled in teaching;

mnt@1Timothy:3:3 @ no drinker or brawler; but forbearing, peaceable, and no money- lover;

mnt@1Timothy:3:4 @ he should be a man who rules his own household well, and keeps his children ever under control and thoroughly well behaved.

mnt@1Timothy:3:6 @ He must not be a recent convert, lest he be blinded with pride, and incur the doom of the devil.

mnt@1Timothy:3:7 @ He should also have a good reputation among outsiders, lest he fall into reproach, and into a snare of the devil.

mnt@1Timothy:3:10 @ They should first be tested, and after that, if they are found irreproachable, let them serve as deacons.

mnt@1Timothy:3:11 @ Deaconesses likewise must be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.

mnt@1Timothy:3:12 @ Let deacons be the husband of but one wife, men who rule their children and their household properly.

mnt@1Timothy:3:15 @ I am writing this to you in case I should be detained, to let you see how you ought to behave in the household of God - the Church of the everliving God, the pillar and mainstay of the truth.

mnt@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit distinctly declares that in latter days there will be some who will fall away from the faith, by listening to spirits of error, and to teachings of demons

mnt@1Timothy:4:3 @ who discourage marriage, and enjoin abstinence from foods which God created to be received with thankfulness, by those who believe, and have a clear knowledge of the truth.

mnt@1Timothy:4:4 @ For everything that God has created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if only it is received with thankfulness.

mnt@1Timothy:4:5 @ For it is sanctified by the Word of God and by prayer.

mnt@1Timothy:4:6 @ As you lay all these things before the brothers, you will be a noble minister of Christ Jesus, nourishing yourself in the precepts of the faith and that noble teaching which you have followed.

mnt@1Timothy:4:7 @ Ever reject these profane and old womanish myths; and continually train yourself for the contest of godliness.

mnt@1Timothy:4:8 @ For physical training is of some small service, but godliness is of service in everything; since it carries with it a promise of life, both here and hereafter.

mnt@2Timothy:1:4 @ Night and day when I recall your tears I am longing to see you, that my happiness may be complete.

mnt@2Timothy:1:5 @ I have been reminded of that sincere faith which is in your heart; which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice, and, I am fully persuaded, dwells in you also.

mnt@2Timothy:1:6 @ For this reason let me remind you to keep ever blazing that gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

mnt@2Timothy:1:7 @ For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but a spirit of power and of love and of self-control.

mnt@2Timothy:1:9 @ He has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not dealing with us according to our works,but according to his purpose and grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time.

mnt@2Timothy:1:10 @ This has now been made manifest through the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who has put an end to death, and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

mnt@2Timothy:1:11 @ Of the gospel I was appointed a herald, apostle, and teacher; and that is the reason I am now undergoing these sufferings.

mnt@2Timothy:1:12 @ But I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have fully believed, and I am thoroughly persuaded that he is able to keep what I have given him until the Day.

mnt@2Timothy:1:13 @ Hold fast the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from me in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

mnt@2Timothy:1:18 @ The Lord grant him to find mercy form the Lord in that Day! And you know better than I how many services he rendered in Ephesus.

mnt@2Timothy:2:4 @ A soldier in active service avoids entangling himself in the every- day affairs of life, so that he may please his commander.

mnt@2Timothy:2:16 @ but avoid profane babble; for people will go farther and farther in impiety,

mnt@2Timothy:2:17 @ and their teaching will spread like a gangrene.

mnt@2Timothy:2:18 @ Among such are Hymenaeus and Philetus, who have gone astray concerning the truth by declaring that the resurrection is already past; and they are undermining the faith of some.

mnt@Titus:3:3 @ For we were ourselves once foolish, disobedient, deceived, slaving for various lusts and pleasures, passing our lives in malice and envy. We were hateful, and we hated one another.

mnt@Titus:3:5 @ He saved us, not because of any deeds that we had done in righteousness, But because of his own pity for us. He saved us by that washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit

mnt@Titus:3:8 @ This saying is trustworthy. On this I want you to firmly insist; that those who have faith in God must be careful to maintain honest occupations. Such counsels are good and profitable for men.

mnt@Titus:3:9 @ But avoid foolish questionings and genealogies and dissensions and wranglings about the law; for these are unprofitable and empty.

mnt@Titus:3:10 @ After a first and second admonition, refuse a man who is causing divisions;

mnt@Philemon:1:1 @ To my beloved friend and coworker Philemon,

mnt@Philemon:1:2 @ to my sister Apphia, to my fellow soldier Archippus, and to the church which meets at Philemons house. From Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and brother Timothy.

mnt@Philemon:1:3 @ Grace and peace be to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Philemon:1:4 @ I am ever mentioning you in my prayers, and giving thanks to God,

mnt@Philemon:1:5 @ because I am hearing of your love and of the faith which you hold, not only toward the Lord Jesus Christ, but toward all the saints.

mnt@Philemon:1:6 @ And I pray that your participation may become effectual, as you come to acknowledge every good thing which is in you to Christ.

mnt@Philemon:1:7 @ For I have great joy and comfort in your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed.

mnt@Philemon:1:8 @ And so, although I might be bold in Christ to dictate to you what is fitting,

mnt@Philemon:1:9 @ yet for loves sake, I rather beseech you, I, Paul, an old man, and now a prisoner for Christ Jesus!

mnt@Philemon:1:11 @ Once you found him "unprofitable," but now he is "profitable" to you and to me.

mnt@Philemon:1:14 @ But without your consent I was unwilling to do anything, so that your kindness to me might be of your own free will, and not of compulsion.

mnt@Philemon:1:16 @ no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, as a brother beloved; especially dear to me, but how much more to you, both as a man and a fellow Christian.

mnt@Philemon:1:18 @ And if he has wronged you at all, or is owing you anything, charge that to me.

mnt@Philemon:1:19 @ I Paul am writing this in my own handwriting, "I will repay you." But I will not mention that you owe me, over and over, your very soul.

mnt@Philemon:1:24 @ so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.

mnt@Hebrews:1:1 @ God, who in ancient days spoke to our ancestors in the prophets, at many different times and by various methods,

mnt@Hebrews:1:3 @ He being an emanation of Gods glory and stamp of his substance, and upholding the universe by the utterances of his power, after by himself making purification of our sins, has taken his seat on the right hand of the Majesty on High.

mnt@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to what angel did God ever say, Thou art my son; this day have I become thy Father? and again, I will be a father to him, and he shall be to me a son?

mnt@Hebrews:1:6 @ And further, when he brought the firstborn into the habitable world, he said, Let all the angels of God worship him.

mnt@Hebrews:1:8 @ But to the Son he says. Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever, And the scepter of thy kingdom is the scepter of justice.

mnt@Hebrews:1:9 @ Thou hast loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore did God, thy God, anoint thee with the oil of gladness beyond thy comrades.

mnt@Hebrews:1:10 @ And, Thou, O Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundations of the earth, And the heavens are the work of thy hands.

mnt@Hebrews:1:12 @ Like a mantle thou wilt fold them up, And like a garment they will be changed. But thou art the same, And thy years will never fail.

mnt@Hebrews:1:13 @ To which of the angels has he ever said, Sit at my right hand, Till I make thy foes a footstool for thy feet?

mnt@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the word uttered through angels stood firm, so that every transgression and act of disobedience met with its just retribution, how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?

mnt@Hebrews:2:4 @ God himself corroborating their testimony by signs and wonders and a variety of miraculous powers, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit imparted in accordance with his own will.

mnt@Hebrews:2:7 @ Thou hast made him only a little lower that the angels; With glory and honor hast thou crowned him; And hast set him to govern the works of thy hands;

mnt@Hebrews:2:9 @ What we do see is Jesus, who was made for a time a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor, because of the suffering of death, in order that through Gods grace he might taste death for every man.

mnt@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it befitted him, for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the Pioneer of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

mnt@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both he who sanctifies and those whom he is sanctifying are all from One; for which reason he is not ashamed to call them brothers, saying.

mnt@Hebrews:2:13 @ And again, I myself will put my trust in God. And again, Lo, I and the children God has given me.

mnt@Hebrews:2:14 @ Therefore, since the children are sharers in flesh and blood, he also similarly partook of the same, in order that through death he might render powerless him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

mnt@Hebrews:2:15 @ And might deliver those who through fear of death had been subject to life-long bondage.

mnt@Hebrews:2:16 @ For assuredly it is not angels, nay, it is the offspring of Abraham, whom he is ever taking by the hand.

mnt@Hebrews:2:17 @ And so it was necessary that he should in all points be made like his brothers, so that he might become a compassionate and faithful high priest, in all that relates to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

mnt@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brothers, comrades of a heavenly calling, fix your thoughts then upon Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession.

mnt@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, bearing testimony to a witness about to be spoken;

mnt@Hebrews:3:6 @ but Christ as a Son in his own house; and we are that house, if we retain the cheerful courage and pride of our hope firm unto the end.

mnt@Hebrews:3:9 @ When your forefathers tried my forbearance And saw my deeds for forty years.

mnt@Hebrews:3:10 @ For this reason I was sore displeased with that generation, And said, "They are always wandering in their hearts; They have never learned my ways";

mnt@Hebrews:3:12 @ See to it, brothers, that there shall never be in any one of you an evil and unbelieving heart, manifesting itself in apostasy from the living God.

mnt@Hebrews:3:16 @ For who were they that heard and yet provoked him? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under the leadership of Moses?

mnt@Hebrews:3:17 @ And with whom was he grieved for forty years? Was it not with those who had sinned, and whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness?

mnt@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear that they should never enter into his rest, if not to those who had proved faithless? So you see that it was through unbelief that they were not able to enter in.

mnt@Hebrews:4:1 @ Let us be on our guard, then, though there is a promise still standing of being admitted to his rest, lest any one of you should be found to have come short of it.

mnt@Hebrews:4:4 @ For he has said, somewhere, regarding the seventh day, And God rested on the seventh day from all his work.

mnt@Hebrews:4:5 @ And again in this passage, They shall not enter into my rest.

mnt@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since, then, it remains that some should enter into it, and since those who formerly had the Good News preached to them did not enter in because of unbelief,

mnt@Hebrews:4:12 @ For living is the Word of God, and active, and sharper than any two- edged sword, piercing even to the severance of soul form spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the very thoughts and conceptions of the heart.

mnt@Hebrews:4:13 @ And there is not a creature hidden form him, but all things are naked and laid prostrate before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

mnt@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us, then, draw near with glad boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace to help us in our times of need.

mnt@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest chosen from time to time from among men is appointed on behalf of men, in matters relating to God, to offer both gifts and sacrifices on behalf of sins.

mnt@Hebrews:5:2 @ He is able to deal gently with the ignorant and erring, since he himself also is encompassed with moral weakness,

mnt@Hebrews:5:3 @ and because of this weakness he is bound to offer sin-offerings not only for the people, but also for himself.

mnt@Hebrews:5:6 @ and again, Thou art a priest forever, after the order of Melchisedek.

mnt@Hebrews:5:7 @ In the days of his flesh, with better cries and weeping Jesus offered up prayers and supplications to Him who was able to save him out of death; and he was heard because of his devout submission.

mnt@Hebrews:5:9 @ and by being thus made perfect, he became the source of enduring salvation to all who obey him,

mnt@Hebrews:5:11 @ Concerning him I have much to say, and much that is hard to make clear to you, because you have grown dull of hearing.

mnt@Hebrews:5:12 @ And this too, although you ought by this time to be teaching others, you are still needing some one to teach you the very rudiments of divine revelation. You need milk, not solid food.

mnt@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food is for adults, that is, for those who by constant practise have their faculties trained to discriminate between good and evil.

mnt@Hebrews:6:1 @ So let us get beyond the teaching of the elementary doctrines of Christ, and let us be borne along toward what is mature. Let us not be continually laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works,

mnt@Hebrews:6:2 @ of faith in God, of the teaching regarding ablutions and the laying on of hands, of the resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

mnt@Hebrews:6:3 @ And this we will do, if God permit.

mnt@Hebrews:6:4 @ For in the case of those who have been once for all enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift,

mnt@Hebrews:6:5 @ and become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the Future Age,

mnt@Hebrews:6:6 @ and then fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance. For they repeatedly crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and expose him to an open shame.

mnt@Hebrews:6:7 @ For land that has drunk the showers that now and again fall upon it, and produced vegetation useful for those for whom it was tilled, receives a blessing from God;

mnt@Hebrews:6:8 @ but if it produces thorns and thistles, it is considered worthless, and is in danger of being cursed, and its end will be to be burned.

mnt@Hebrews:6:9 @ But though we thus speak, we are persuaded better things of you, beloved, and things that accompany salvation.

mnt@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you showed for his cause, in sending help to your fellow Christians, as you are still doing.

mnt@Hebrews:6:12 @ Then do not become slack, but be imitators of those who through faith and patience are inheriting the promises.

mnt@Hebrews:6:14 @ Surely I will bless you, and bless you; I will increase you, and increase you.

mnt@Hebrews:6:15 @ And so by patiently waiting, Abraham obtained the promise.

mnt@Hebrews:6:16 @ I am referring to the oath because men swear by what is greater than themselves, and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation.

mnt@Hebrews:6:18 @ that by means of two immutable things - his promise and his oath - in which it is impossible for God to break faith, we refugees may have strong encouragement to grasp the hope set before us.

mnt@Hebrews:6:19 @ This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, secure and strong, and passing into the sanctuary which is beyond the veil;

mnt@Hebrews:7:1 @ It was this Melchisedek, King of Salem and Priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him;

mnt@Hebrews:7:2 @ and it was to him that Abraham apportioned a tithe of all the spoil. He was first, as his name signifies, King of righteousness, and then King of Salem, that is, King of Peace;

mnt@Hebrews:7:5 @ Now those of the sons of Levi who are appointed to the priesthood, are authorized by the Law to take tithes of the people, that is, of their brothers, and that too, although these are descended from Abraham.

mnt@Hebrews:7:6 @ But this man who had no Levitical genealogy actually took tithes of Abraham, and blessed him to whom the promises belong.

mnt@Hebrews:7:9 @ And even Levi, who is the receiver of tithes, so to speak, paid tithes through Abraham;

mnt@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if there were perfection through the Levitical priesthood, (and it was under it that the people received the Law) why was it still necessary for another kind of priest to arise, after the order of Melchisedek, instead of being reckoned according to the order of Aaron?

mnt@Hebrews:7:15 @ And this is yet more abundantly clear if, after the likeness of Melchisedek, there arises another Priest,

mnt@Hebrews:7:18 @ For there is a setting aside of a foregoing commandment, because of its weakness and unprofitableness

mnt@Hebrews:7:19 @ (for the Law brought nothing to perfection); and there is the bringing in of a better hope by which we draw near to God;

mnt@Hebrews:7:21 @ For although those priests became such without an oath, He had an oath form God who said to him, The Lord hath sworn and will not change, Thou art a priest forever.

mnt@Hebrews:7:22 @ And by so much Jesus becomes the guarantor of a better covenant.

mnt@Hebrews:7:23 @ And they indeed have been made priests, many in number, because they have been prevented by death from continuing;

mnt@Hebrews:7:26 @ For we needed just such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens;

mnt@Hebrews:8:1 @ The pith of all that we have been saying is this; we do have such a High Priest; and he has taken his seat on the right hand of the throne of Majesty in the heavens,

mnt@Hebrews:8:2 @ a minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.

mnt@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices; whence it follows that this High Priest also must have some offering to make.

mnt@Hebrews:8:5 @ those priests who serve a mere outline and shadow of the heavenly reality, just as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to build the Tabernacle. "See", he says, "that you make everything on the pattern showed you on the mountain."

mnt@Hebrews:8:8 @ But finding fault with them, He says. "There are days coming," says the Lord, "When I will establish with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah a new covenant;

mnt@Hebrews:8:9 @ Not according tot he covenant which I made with their forefathers, On the day when I took them by the hand to lead them forth out of the land of Egypt; For they did not continue in my covenant, And therefore I disregarded them," says the Lord.

mnt@Hebrews:8:10 @ "For this is the covenant which I will covenant with the house of Israel, After these days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws into their minds, And upon their hearts will I write them; And I will be their God, And they shall be my people;

mnt@Hebrews:8:11 @ And they shall not teach every man his fellow citizen, And every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord; For all shall know me, From the least to the greatest of them.

mnt@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will have mercy upon their wrong-doings, And their sins I will remember no more."

mnt@Hebrews:8:13 @ By calling the covenant "new," He has made the first one obsolete; and whatever is becoming obsolete and aged, is near to vanishing.

mnt@Hebrews:9:1 @ Now even the first covenant had its ordinances of public worship, and its sanctuary, a material one.

mnt@Hebrews:9:2 @ For a tent was built, the outer one called the Holy Place, in which were the lamp and the table and the loaves of the Presence;

mnt@Hebrews:9:3 @ and behind the second veil was the tent called the Holy of Holies.

mnt@Hebrews:9:4 @ In it was the golden altar of incense, and also the Ark of the Covenant covered all over with gold, in which was a golden pot holding the manna, and Aarons rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;

mnt@Hebrews:9:7 @ but into the inner tent the high priest only goes alone, once a year, and that not without blood, which he offers for himself and for the ignorances of the people.

mnt@Hebrews:9:8 @ The Holy Spirit teaching by this that the way into the Holiest has not yet been disclosed while the first tent is still standing.

mnt@Hebrews:9:9 @ This is a parable, for the present time, according to which gifts and sacrifices are offered that are not able, as far as conscience is concerned, to perfect the worshiper;

mnt@Hebrews:9:10 @ since they consist only in meats and drinks and various ablutions, carnal ordinances, imposed until the time of reformation.

mnt@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ came, a High Priest of good things to come, he passed through the greater and more perfect tent not made with hands, that is to say, not of this material creation,

mnt@Hebrews:9:12 @ not taking the blood of goats and oxen, but his own blood, and entered once for all into the Holy Place, obtaining for us an eternal redemption.

mnt@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleansing of the flesh,

mnt@Hebrews:9:15 @ And because of this he is the Mediator of a new testament, in order that, since a death has taken place to atone for offenses committed under the first testament, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

mnt@Hebrews:9:19 @ For after every commandment according to the law had been spoken by Moses to the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people.

mnt@Hebrews:9:20 @ saying, This is the blood of that testament which God commanded in regard to you.

mnt@Hebrews:9:21 @ Moreover the tabernacle and all the vessels of service he sprinkled likewise, and indeed, according to the Law,

mnt@Hebrews:9:22 @ almost everything is purified by blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins.

mnt@Hebrews:9:24 @ For it was not into a Sanctuary made by hands, a mere type of the reality, that Christ entered, but he entered into heaven itself, now to appear in the very presence of God on our behalf.

mnt@Hebrews:9:27 @ And since it is appointed to men once to die, and after that the judgment;

mnt@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the Law, being only a shadow of the good things to come, and not their very substance, its priests cannot with the same sacrifice which year after year they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.

mnt@Hebrews:10:3 @ But on the other hand, in these sacrifices sins are called to memory, year after year.

mnt@Hebrews:10:4 @ For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sin.

mnt@Hebrews:10:5 @ It is for this reason that the Christ, on coming into the world, declared. Sacrifice and offerings thou dost not desire, But a body didst thou prepare for me;

mnt@Hebrews:10:6 @ In whole burnt offerings and sin offerings Thou hast taken no pleasure.

mnt@Hebrews:10:8 @ First when it is said, Thou hast no longing for, thou takest no delight in Sacrifices and offerings, or whole burnt offerings and sin offerings,

mnt@Hebrews:10:9 @ (offerings regularly made under the law), and then it is added, Lo, I come to do thy will, he does away with the first, in order that he may establish the second.

mnt@Hebrews:10:10 @ And it is by this will that we have been sanctified by the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

mnt@Hebrews:10:11 @ For while every priest stands, day after day, at his ministrations, and many times repeats the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,

mnt@Hebrews:10:12 @ this Priest, after offering one Sacrifice for sins, sat down forever on Gods right hand;

mnt@Hebrews:10:15 @ And the Holy Spirit also gives his testimony, when he said.

mnt@Hebrews:10:16 @ "This is the covenant I will make with them After those days," says the Lord. "I will set my laws upon their hearts, And I will inscribe them on their minds."

mnt@Hebrews:10:17 @ Then he adds, And their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.

mnt@Hebrews:10:20 @ by the way which he dedicated for us, that new and living way, through the veil (that is, his flesh);

mnt@Hebrews:10:21 @ and since we have a great High Priest over the house of God;

mnt@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, our hearts sprinkled from and evil conscience, and our bodies bathed in pure water.

mnt@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much surer, think you, will be the punishment of one who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has profaned that covenant blood with which he was sanctified, and has done despite to the spirit of grace?

mnt@Hebrews:10:30 @ For we know Him who said, Vengeance is mine, I will repay, and again, The Lord will judge his people.

mnt@Hebrews:10:31 @ IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD!

mnt@Hebrews:10:33 @ partly by being made a public spectacle in reproaches and afflictions, and partly by sharing the fortunes of those that were so used.

mnt@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you did sympathize with the prisoners, and you did take joyfully the confiscation of your goods; conscious that you had for yourselves greater, even lasting possessions.

mnt@Hebrews:10:37 @ For yet a very, very little while, and then The Coming One will have come, without delay.

mnt@Hebrews:10:38 @ But it is by faith that my Righteous One will live, And if he draws back, my soul takes no pleasure in him.

mnt@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that the world was fashioned by the Word of God, so that what we see was not made out of what is visible.

mnt@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a sacrifice more acceptable than that of Cain, through which he had witness borne to him that he was righteous, God giving the testimony by accepting his gifts; and through it he, although he is dead, still speaks.

mnt@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was translated so that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God had translated him. Before his translation he had witness borne to him that he pleased God.

mnt@Hebrews:11:6 @ now without faith it is impossible to please him; for he who comes to God must believe that he is, and that he ever rewards those who are seeking.

mnt@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, warned of God of things not yet seen, reverently gave heed, and built an ark for the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is of faith.

mnt@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out unto a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

mnt@Hebrews:11:9 @ It was by faith that he sojourned in the promised land as an alien, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, his fellow heirs of the same promise.

mnt@Hebrews:11:10 @ For he continually looked for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

mnt@Hebrews:11:12 @ and thus there sprang from one man, and him practically dead, a nation like the stars in the heavens in multitude, or grains of sand upon the seashore, innumerable.

mnt@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having yet received the promises; nay, but they saw them from afar, and hailed them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

mnt@Hebrews:11:14 @ For those who say such things make it plain that they are seeking a Fatherland.

mnt@Hebrews:11:15 @ And if they had cherished the memory of that land from which they went out, they would have found an opportunity to return;

mnt@Hebrews:11:16 @ but now they are longing for a better homeland, that is, a heavenly. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; and he has prepared a city for them.

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

mnt@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Josephs sons, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.

mnt@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, when his end was nigh, made mention of the exodus of the children of Israel, and gave instructions in regard to his bones.

mnt@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, and they were not afraid of the kings decree.

mnt@Hebrews:11:28 @ By faith he established the Passover, and the sprinkling with blood, in order that the Destroying Angel might not touch the firstborn.

mnt@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith the people crossed over the Red Sea as on dry land; and when the Egyptians tried to do this they were swallowed up.

mnt@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what more shall I say? for time would fail me to tell of Gideon, of Barak, of Samson, and of Jeptha; of David and Samuel and the prophets,

mnt@Hebrews:11:36 @ Others again bore trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, even of chains and imprisonment.

mnt@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tempted, they were slain with the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, persecuted, tormented -

mnt@Hebrews:11:38 @ of whom the world was not worthy - wandering in deserts and mountains and caves and holes in the ground.

mnt@Hebrews:12:1 @ Seeing then that we are encircled with this great cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and the sin that clings about us. Let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

mnt@Hebrews:12:2 @ looking unto Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured a cross, despising shame, and has now taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.

mnt@Hebrews:12:8 @ If you are left without discipline, in which all children share, then are you bastards and not sons.

mnt@Hebrews:12:9 @ Furthermore, our earthly fathers used to discipline us, and we gave them reverence. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?

mnt@Hebrews:12:15 @ Look carefully that there be no one who falls back from the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springs up to trouble you, and by its means many become defiled.

mnt@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you are not come to a palpable and enkindled fire,

mnt@Hebrews:12:19 @ nor to gloom and darkness and tempest and the blare of a trumpet and an audible voice. Those who heard that voice entreated that no word more should be spoken to them.

mnt@Hebrews:12:24 @ to Jesus the Mediator of the New Covenant, and to his sprinkled Blood whose message cries louder than that of Abel.

mnt@Hebrews:13:4 @ Let marriage be held in honor by all, and the marriage bed be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers will God judge.

mnt@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your leaders, the men who spoke the message of God to you; consider the issue of their lives, and imitate their faith.

mnt@Hebrews:13:8 @ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

mnt@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not allow yourselves to be swept away by various and strange teachings. For it is a beautiful thing to be established in heart by grace, and not by regulations regarding food, from which those that occupied themselves with them have derived no benefit.

mnt@Hebrews:13:12 @ and so Jesus suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people by his own blood.

mnt@Hebrews:13:16 @ And forget not to be kind and liberal; for with that sort of sacrifice God is well pleased.

mnt@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who must give account; that they may do thus with joy and not with lamentation, for this would be unprofitable to you.

mnt@Hebrews:13:18 @ Keep on praying for me. I am persuaded that I have a clear conscience, and I desire in every way to live nobly.

mnt@Hebrews:13:24 @ Salute all your leaders and the saints. The brothers from Italy send you greeting.

mnt@James:1:1 @ James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, sends greeting to the twelve tribes that are scattered abroad.

mnt@James:1:4 @ But let endurance have its perfect work, so that you may be perfect and entire, not lacking in anything.

mnt@James:1:5 @ If any one of you is lacking in wisdom, let him ask it from the God who gives to all men freely and without upbraiding; and it will be given to him.

mnt@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, without wavering; for he who wavers is like a surge of the sea, wind-driven and tossed.

mnt@James:1:11 @ For as the sun comes up with a burning heat, it withers the grass, and its flowers fall, and the grace of the fashion of it perishes; so also shall the rich man fade away amid his pursuits.

mnt@James:1:14 @ But each man is tempted by his own lusts that allure and entice him.

mnt@James:1:15 @ Then lust conceives and gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is mature, brings forth death.

mnt@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect boon is from above, and is ever coming down to us from the Father of the heavenly lights, with whom is no variation nor shadow of eclipse.

mnt@James:1:21 @ So strip off all filthiness and superfluity of wickedness, and in meekness receive the implanted Word, which is able to save your souls.

mnt@James:1:22 @ And become doers of the Word, and not merely hearers, deceiving yourselves.

mnt@James:1:23 @ Because if any one is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror;

mnt@James:1:24 @ for after he has looked carefully at himself, he goes away, and at once forgets what he is like.

mnt@James:1:25 @ But the man who looks closely into the perfect law - the law of liberty - and continues looking, this man will be blessed in his deed because he is not a hearer who forgets, but a doer who does.

mnt@James:2:3 @ and you look up to him who wears the fine clothing, and say to him, "Sit here in this fine place!" and to the poor man you say, "Stand there!" or "Sit on the floor at my feet!"

mnt@James:2:4 @ are you not drawing distinctions among yourselves, and have you not become judges with evil thoughts?

mnt@James:2:5 @ Listen, my dear brothers, has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith, and to inherit the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

mnt@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you to court?

mnt@James:2:9 @ If you have the spirit of caste you are committing sin, and are convicted by the Law as transgressors.

mnt@James:2:10 @ For if a man keeps the whole of the Law, and yet stumbles in one point, he is guilty of all.

mnt@James:2:12 @ So speak and act like men who are to be judged by the law of liberty.

mnt@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister be naked and in need of daily food,

mnt@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, find warmth and food for yourselves," but at the same time you do not give the necessaries of the body, what good would that do them?

mnt@James:2:18 @ Some one indeed may say, "You have faith, and I have deeds." "Then show me your faith," I answer, "apart from any deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds."

mnt@James:2:19 @ You believe that God is one? You do well; even the demons believe, and they shudder.

mnt@James:2:22 @ You see how faith was cooperating with deeds, and faith was made perfect by deeds.

mnt@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which said, And Abraham believed God, and this was imputed to him as righteousness, and he was called Gods friend.

mnt@James:2:24 @ You see, then, that it is by his deeds a man is justified, and not simply by his faith.

mnt@James:2:25 @ In like manner was not Rahab, the harlot, justified by her deeds, in the fact that she received the messengers and sent them forth by another way?

mnt@James:3:1 @ Do not become many teachers, my brothers, because you know well that we teachers shall be judged by a severer standard than others.

mnt@James:3:5 @ So also the tongue is a small member and makes great boasts. Behold, how great a forest is set on fire by a little spark!

mnt@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire; it is a very world of iniquity among our members, defiling the whole body, and setting on fire the wheel of nature, and is itself set on fire by hell.

mnt@James:3:7 @ For while every kind of beast and bird, and of reptiles and sea- creatures are tamable, and actually have been tamed by mankind,

mnt@James:3:9 @ With it we continually bless our Lord and Father, and with it we are accustomed to curse men made in the image of God.

mnt@James:3:10 @ From out of the same mouth pour forth blessings and cursings! My brothers, this ought not to be so.

mnt@James:3:11 @ Does a spring pour forth from the same opening sweet water and bitter?

mnt@James:3:13 @ Who among you is wise and intelligent? Let him show his deeds by his good life, in the meekness of wisdom.

mnt@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, do not be boasting of that, and be false to the truth.

mnt@James:3:16 @ For wherever jealousy and faction exist, there is confusion and every evil deed.

mnt@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom which comes from on high is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, conciliatory, overflowing with mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without insincerity.

mnt@James:3:18 @ And the fruit of righteousness is being sown in peace by those who are working peace.

mnt@James:4:1 @ Where do the conflicts and quarrels that go on among you come from? Do they not come from your passions which are always making war among your bodily members?

mnt@James:4:2 @ You continually crave and do not obtain; you are killing and coveting and cannot acquire; you are fighting and at war. You do not have, because you do not ask.

mnt@James:4:3 @ You continue to ask and do not receive, because you are asking with a wrong purpose, in order to spend it upon your pleasures.

mnt@James:4:4 @ You adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity to God? Whoever, then, desires to be a friend of the world, makes himself and enemy of God.

mnt@James:4:6 @ But he gives more and more grace. therefore it is said, God ever resists the proud; but to the humble he gives grace continually.

mnt@James:4:9 @ Lament and mourn, and weep aloud! Let your laughter be turned into mourning, And your joy into gloom!

mnt@James:4:10 @ Humble yourselves before the Lord, And he will raise you up.

mnt@James:4:11 @ Do not be talking against each other, brothers. He who is talking against a brother and condemning his brothers is talking against the Law and condemning the Law. But if you are condemning the Law, you are not a doer of the Law, but a judge.

mnt@James:4:14 @ when all the time you do not know what will happen on the morrow. For what is your life? You are but a mist, appearing for a brief time, and then vanishing.

mnt@James:4:15 @ You ought instead to say, "If the Lord wills it, we shall live and do this or that."

mnt@James:4:17 @ So to him who knows how to do right and does not do it, to him it is sin.

mnt@James:5:2 @ For your riches lie rotting, and your clothing has become moth-eaten.

mnt@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver are rusted. and their rust will be for a testimony against you, and it will eat your flesh. For you have been storing up fire in these last days!

mnt@James:5:4 @ Look! the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have been keeping back by fraud, are crying aloud! And the cries of the reapers have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth!

mnt@James:5:7 @ Be patient, then, brothers, till the coming of the Lord. Behold the farmer who waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it gets the early and the latter rains.

mnt@James:5:8 @ So you also must be patient. Stablish your hearts; for the coming of the Lord is at hand!

mnt@James:5:9 @ Do not make complaints against each other, brothers, lest you yourselves be condemned. Behold the Judge is standing before the very door!

mnt@James:5:10 @ Take, my brothers, for an example the suffering and the patience of the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

mnt@James:5:11 @ Remember we count those that were stedfast happy. You have heard of the stedfastness of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord with him, seen how the Lord is full of tenderness.

mnt@James:5:12 @ Again, above all things, my brothers, swear not at all, neither by the heavens, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath. Let your "yes" be "yes," and your "no," "no," so you will not fall under condemnation.

mnt@James:5:14 @ Is any in good spirits? Let him sing unto his harp. Is any one of you ill? Let him send for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, after anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

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

mnt@James:5:16 @ So confess your sins one to another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. For the fervent prayer of a righteous man is mighty in its working.

mnt@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man of like passions with us, and he prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.

mnt@James:5:18 @ Then he prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.

mnt@1Peter:4:11 @ If any one preaches, let him always preach as one who utters Gods truth; if any one serves another, let it be with the strength which God supplies; so that in every way God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory and dominion for ever and ever, Amen.

mnt@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are being reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the spirit of glory and of God is resting upon you.

mnt@1Peter:4:17 @ It is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it first begin with us, what shall be the end of those who are disobedient to the gospel?

mnt@1Peter:4:18 @ If the righteous man is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

mnt@1Peter:5:1 @ Now to you who are presbyters I make this appeal; for I am myself a presbyter, and was a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory about to be revealed.

mnt@1Peter:5:2 @ Be shepherds to your flock of God; take charge of them willingly, and not through compulsion; not for filthy lucre, but with a willing mind;

mnt@1Peter:5:5 @ You younger men must submit to the presbyters; and all of you must put on the garment of humility and serve one another, for God resists the haughty, But gives grace to the humble.

mnt@1Peter:5:6 @ So humble yourselves under Gods mighty hand, so that he may exalt you in due time.

mnt@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, standing firm in the faith, knowing well that the same afflictions are being accomplished in your brothers that are in the world.

mnt@1Peter:5:11 @ His is the dominion forever and ever; Amen.

mnt@1Peter:5:12 @ By Sylvanus, a faithful brother of yours, as I suppose, I have written you briefly, to comfort you, and to testify that this is the true grace of God. In this stand fast.

mnt@1Peter:5:13 @ Your sister church in Babylon, elect with you, sends you salutations, and so does Marcus, my son.

mnt@2Peter:1:1 @ Simon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained an equally precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ.

mnt@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace and peace be multiplied to you by the God and Father of Jesus our Lord.

mnt@2Peter:1:3 @ For his power divine has granted to us everything needful for life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue.

mnt@2Peter:1:4 @ By these he has granted his promises to us, precious and splendid; so that through them you may become partners of the divine nature, now that you have escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

mnt@2Peter:1:5 @ For this very reason do your best to add to your faith manliness, and to manliness knowledge,

mnt@2Peter:1:6 @ and to knowledge self-control, and to self-control stedfastness, and to stedfastness piety,

mnt@2Peter:1:7 @ and to piety brotherly love, and to brotherly love, love itself.

mnt@2Peter:1:10 @ So, brothers, take diligent care to make your calling and election sure; for if you do this, you will never stumble.

mnt@2Peter:1:11 @ For so the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ will be richly supplied to you.

mnt@2Peter:1:12 @ I shall therefore be always ready to remind you of all this, even though you know it, and are firmly founded in the truth which is with you.

mnt@2Peter:1:16 @ For we were not following cunningly devised fables, when we told you of the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eye-witnesses of his Majesty.

mnt@2Peter:1:17 @ For he did receive honor and glory from God the Father, when there was borne such a voice to him from the Majestic Glory, This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom I delight;

mnt@2Peter:1:18 @ and this voice we ourselves heard, borne to us out of heaven, when we were with him on the holy hill.

mnt@2Peter:1:19 @ And so we possess the word of prophecy made yet more sure. Unto this you do well to give heed as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

mnt@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were false prophets, too, among the people, just as among you also there will be false teachers. These will secretly bring in destructive sects, denying even the Master who bought them, and bringing swift ruin upon themselves.

mnt@2Peter:2:3 @ In their covetousness, with cunning words, they will make merchandise of you; those whose doom has not been idle from of old, and whose destruction has not been slumbering.

mnt@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to chains of darkness, and reserved them for judgment;

mnt@2Peter:2:6 @ if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and reduced them to ashes, thus holding them up as a warning to all who would live ungodly;

mnt@2Peter:2:7 @ and he delivered righteous Lot who was worn out by the lascivious life of the wicked

mnt@2Peter:2:8 @ (for that righteous man, living among them, tormented his righteous soul in seeing and hearing, day after day, their lawless deeds),

mnt@2Peter:2:9 @ then be sure that the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the wicked (who are even now enduring punishment) for the "Day of Judgment";

mnt@2Peter:2:10 @ especially those who spend their lives following the flesh in the lust of defilement, and in despising all authority. Audacious and wilful, they feel no awe in railing against dignities;

mnt@2Peter:2:11 @ even where angels, though surpassing them in strength and might, do not bring a railing judgment against them before the Lord.

mnt@2Peter:2:12 @ But these men, like irrational creatures, mere animals, born to be taken and destroyed, continually rail about matters of which they know nothing. In their corruption they will surely be destroyed,

mnt@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong as the wage of wrong which they have done. These are men who count it pleasure to carouse in open daylight; they are spots and blemishes reveling in their deceit, even while they are feasting with you.

mnt@2Peter:2:15 @ They have forsaken the right way; they have lost their way, and followed the road of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrong-doing.

mnt@2Peter:2:16 @ He was, however, rebuked for his own transgression; a dumb ass spoke with a mans voice, and stopped the madness of the prophet.

mnt@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after having escaped the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, men are again entangled in them and overpowered, their last state is become worse than their first.

mnt@2Peter:2:21 @ Indeed it would have been better for them not to have known the Way of Righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy command delivered to them.

mnt@2Peter:2:22 @ In their case it has happened according to the true proverb, The dog returns again to his own vomit, and The sow, after washing, to her wallowing in the mire.

mnt@2Peter:3:2 @ I want you to recollect the words that were foretold by the holy prophets, and the command of your Lord and Saviour, given you through your apostles.

mnt@2Peter:3:4 @ and say, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the day that our fathers fell asleep everything continues as it was from the beginning of the creation."

mnt@2Peter:3:5 @ For they willingly ignore the fact that there were heaven, from of old, and an earth formed out of water and through water, by the word of God;

mnt@2Peter:3:6 @ and that by the same means the world which then existed was destroyed by a deluge of water.

mnt@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and earth that now are, by the same word of God, have been reserved for fire, and are being kept for the Day of Judgment, and for the destruction of ungodly men.

mnt@2Peter:3:8 @ Do not forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

mnt@2Peter:3:10 @ But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief; and on that Day the heavens will vanish with a crash, the heavenly bodies will melt with fervent heat, and the earth and all its works will be burned up.

mnt@2Peter:3:11 @ Now since all things are in the process of dissolution, what kind of men ought you to be, in all holy living and piety;

mnt@2Peter:3:12 @ while you look for and hasten the coming of the Day of God. At its coming the heavens, being on fire, will be dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt with fervent heat.

mnt@2Peter:3:13 @ But according to his promise, we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness makes her dwelling.

mnt@2Peter:3:14 @ And so, beloved, since you are looking for these things, continually give diligence that you may be found in peace, unspotted and blameless in his sight.

mnt@2Peter:3:16 @ It is the same in all his letters when he speaks of these things. There are indeed some things in his letters hard to understand, which the ignorant and the shifty wrest, as also they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

mnt@2Peter:3:17 @ Do you therefore, beloved, because you know these things beforehand, be on your guard lest you be led astray by the error of the wicked, and so fall from your own stedfastness.

mnt@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow continually in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and unto the Day of Eternity, Amen.

mnt@1John:1:1 @ It is of what has existed from the beginning, of what we have listened to, of what we have seen with our own eyes, of what we have witnessed and touched with our own heads, it is concerning the Logos of Life that we are now writing.

mnt@1John:1:2 @ And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us.

mnt@1John:1:3 @ It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

mnt@1John:1:4 @ And we are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.

mnt@1John:1:5 @ This, then, is the message that we have heard from him, and are announcing to you, that God is light, and no darkness what ever is in him.

mnt@1John:1:6 @ If we say, "We have partnership with Him," when we are passing our life in the darkness, we are lying and are not doing the truth.

mnt@1John:1:7 @ But is we are passing our life in the light, as he is in the light, we ever have partnership with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ is cleansing us from every sin.

mnt@1John:1:8 @ If we say, "We have no sin," we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.

mnt@1John:1:9 @ But if we confess our sins, faithful is he and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wrong-doing.

mnt@1John:1:10 @ If we say, "We have not sinned," we are making him a liar, and his word is not in us.

mnt@1John:2:2 @ And he is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.

mnt@1John:2:3 @ This is how we may know that we have come to know Him, by always keeping his commandments.

mnt@1John:2:4 @ He who says, "I know Him," but does no continue obeying his commandments, is a liar,

mnt@1John:2:5 @ and the truth is not in him; bit if any man obey his word, in him truly is the love of God made perfect. By this we come to know that we are in him.

mnt@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, nay, and old commandment, which you have had from the beginning. That old commandment is the message to which you have listened.

mnt@1John:2:8 @ Yet again it is a new commandment which I am writing to you, which is true in him and is you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

mnt@1John:2:9 @ He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness even until now.

mnt@1John:2:10 @ But he who loves his brother is abiding in the light, and in it there is no cause of stumbling.

mnt@1John:2:11 @ But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and is spending his life in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

mnt@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, because you have learned to know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God is abiding in you, and you have fully overcome the Evil One.

mnt@1John:2:16 @ For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the proud glory of life, is not from the Father, but from the world;

mnt@1John:2:17 @ and the world and its lusts are passing away, but he who ever does the will of God abides forever.

mnt@1John:2:18 @ My children, this is the last hour, and as you have heard that an antichrist was coming, and now many antichrists are already risen, whence we may know that it is the last hour.

mnt@1John:2:20 @ Now you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

mnt@1John:2:21 @ I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and know that no lie is of the truth.

mnt@1John:2:22 @ Who is the liar if not the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, even he who disowns the Father and the Son.

mnt@1John:2:24 @ If what you have heard from the beginning is abiding in you, you also will ever abide in the Son and in the Father.

mnt@1John:2:25 @ And this is the promise which he has promised to us even life eternal.

mnt@1John:2:27 @ As to you, the unction you received from him remains ever in you, and you need no teaching from any one. But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true, and is no lie, abide continually in him, as it has taught you to do.

mnt@1John:2:28 @ And now continue to abide in him, my children, so that when he shall appear we may have cheerful confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

mnt@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has given us in allowing us to be called "Children of God!" And that is what we are. For this reason the world does not recognize us, because it did not know him.

mnt@1John:3:3 @ And every one who is holding this hope in him is purifying himself, even as he is pure.

mnt@1John:3:5 @ And you know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin.

mnt@1John:3:9 @ Whoever is a child of God cannot go on sinning, because his seed is abiding in him; and he cannot go on sinning because he is a child of God.

mnt@1John:3:10 @ In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil; for every one who does not work righteousness is not a child of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.

mnt@1John:3:12 @ We are not to be like Cain, who belonged to the Evil One, and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? It was because his own deeds were evil, and his brothers, righteous.

mnt@1John:3:15 @ Every one who is hating his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

mnt@1John:3:17 @ But whoever has this worlds goods, and beholds his brother in need, and shuts up his heart against him, how can the love of God continue to abide in him?

mnt@1John:3:18 @ My children, let us not love in word nor in talk, but in deed and in truth.

mnt@1John:3:20 @ and shall persuade our heart in his presence whenever our heart condemns us, because God is greater than our heart and knows all things.

mnt@1John:3:22 @ and whatever we ask we are receiving from him, because we are keeping his commandments and doing those things that are pleasing in his sight.

mnt@1John:3:23 @ His commandment is this, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another as he has commanded us to do.

mnt@1John:3:24 @ He who keeps his commandments is abiding in Him, and Christ in him. By this we know that Christ is abiding in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.

mnt@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit which confesses him not, is not from God. And this is that spirit of Antichrist of which you have heard that it is coming, and that now it is already in the world.

mnt@1John:4:4 @ My little children, you are of God and have conquered them; because he that is within you is greater than he that is in the world.

mnt@1John:4:5 @ They are of the world, and for this reason they speak as of the world, and the world listens to them.

mnt@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God; and every one that loves us a child of God.

mnt@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.

mnt@1John:4:12 @ No man has ever gazed on God; but if we love one another, God ever abides in us, and his love is perfected in us.

mnt@1John:4:13 @ By this we come to know that we are abiding in him, and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit;

mnt@1John:4:14 @ and we have beheld and do testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

mnt@1John:4:15 @ If any man confesses that "Jesus is the Son of God." God is abiding in that man, and he in God.

mnt@1John:4:16 @ And we do know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love; and he who is abiding in love is abiding in God, and God is abiding in him.

mnt@1John:4:18 @ Fear does not exist in love; but love, when it is perfect, drives out fear. For fear has always torment, and he who has fear is not yet perfected in love.

mnt@1John:4:20 @ If any one says, "I love God," and yet hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot possibly love God, whom he has not seen.

mnt@1John:4:21 @ And we have this command from God. HE WHO LOVES GOD IS TO LOVE HIS BROTHER ALSO.

mnt@1John:5:1 @ Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God; and every one who loves the Father, loves him also who is the Fathers Child.

mnt@1John:5:2 @ By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments.

mnt@1John:5:3 @ For love to God means obeying his commandments; and his commandments are not irksome.

mnt@1John:5:4 @ For whoever is a child of God is overcoming the world; and our faith is the victory that has overcome the world.

mnt@1John:5:5 @ And who it the one that is overcoming the world if not the man who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

mnt@1John:5:6 @ Jesus Christ is he who came by water and blood, not by the water only, but by the water and by the blood. The spirit is he who bears testimony, because the Spirit is the truth.

mnt@1John:5:7 @ For there are three who bear testimony, the Spirit, and the water,

mnt@1John:5:8 @ and the blood; and the three are one.

mnt@1John:5:11 @ And the testimony is this, "God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son."

mnt@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that he is listening to us in what ever we are asking, we know that we obtain the petitions which we have made to him.

mnt@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees his brother committing a sin that is not deadly, he shall ask, and God will give him life, for any one who is not committing a deadly sin. There is a deadly sin; concerning that I do not say that he should pray.

mnt@1John:5:17 @ All unrighteousness is sin; and there is sin that is not deadly.

mnt@1John:5:18 @ We know that whoever is a child of God is not habitually committing sin; but he who is Gods child guards himself, and the Evil One never touches him.

mnt@1John:5:19 @ We know that we are of God, and the whole world is lying in the Evil One.

mnt@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God is come, and has granted us and understanding, so that we may come to know him who is true. And we are in him who is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and life eternal.

mnt@2John:1:1 @ The Elder to the Elect Lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those who have come to know the truth.

mnt@2John:1:2 @ I love you for the sake of the truth which is abiding in us and will be with us forever.

mnt@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ the Fathers Son, in truth and love.

mnt@2John:1:4 @ I am greatly rejoiced to find some of your children leading their lives in truth, even as we received commandment from the Father.

mnt@2John:1:5 @ And now I am entreating you, Lady, not as though I were writing some new commandment to you, but one which we have had from the beginning, let us love one another.

mnt@2John:1:6 @ And this is love, that we should lead our lives according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should pass your life in love.

mnt@2John:1:7 @ I say this because many deceivers are gone forth into the world, those who deny the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist.

mnt@2John:1:9 @ Whoever is going ahead, and is not abiding in the teachings of Christ, does not possess God; but he who is abiding in the teaching possesses both the Father and the Son.

mnt@2John:1:10 @ If any one come to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, nor give him any greeting.

mnt@2John:1:12 @ I have many things to write to you, but I would not write them with paper and ink. I hope to come to you and to talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.

mnt@3John:1:2 @ I pray that you may prosper, beloved, in every way, and be in good health, even as your soul is prospering.

mnt@3John:1:3 @ For I was glad when brothers came and bore testimony to your truth, as indeed you are passing your life in truth.

mnt@3John:1:5 @ You are acting faithfully, beloved, in whatever you are doing for the brothers and the strangers.

mnt@3John:1:10 @ Do them when I come I will recall to mind the deeds which he is doing, prating against me with wicked words. Not satisfied with that, he refuses to receive the brothers, forbids those that would receive them, and excommunicates them from the church.

mnt@3John:1:12 @ All men bear testimony to Demetrius, and so does the truth itself. I also bear testimony to him; and you know that my testimony is true.

mnt@3John:1:13 @ I have a great deal to write to you, but I do not want to write you with pen and ink.

mnt@3John:1:14 @ I am hoping soon to see you, and then we shall talk face to face. Peace be to you! The friends send their salutation. Salute the friends by name.

mnt@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a slave of Jesus Christ, and a brother of James. To those who are in God, the Father beloved, kept for Jesus Christ, and called.

mnt@Jude:1:2 @ May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.

mnt@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men have crept in stealthily - men predestined in ancient prophecies for this condemnation - impious ones! They pervert the grace of our God into licentiousness, and deny Jesus Christ, our sole Master and Lord.

mnt@Jude:1:5 @ I wish to remind you of what you already know right well, that although the Lord once saved a people out of the land of Egypt, he afterward destroyed those who did not believe;

mnt@Jude:1:7 @ So also Sodom and Gomorrah and the near-by cities which in like manner glutted themselves in sensuality and unnatural vice, are exhibited as a warning of the eternal fire, in the punishment they undergo.

mnt@Jude:1:8 @ Yet in just the same way these dreamers also defile the flesh, while they set at naught dominion and scoff at dignities.

mnt@Jude:1:10 @ Yet these men blaspheme about matters of which they know nothing, while they use such things as they do understand by instinct (like the animals who have no reason) for their own destruction.

mnt@Jude:1:11 @ Alas for them! They have walked in the path of Cain; for the sake of gain they have rushed headlong into Balaams error, and have perished in Korahs rebellion.
