Romans:1:1 @ From Paul, a slave of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for a gospel of God,
mnt@Romans:1:2 @ which through his prophets he promised beforetime, in holy writings;
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:1:6 @ among whom you also are called to be Jesus Christs.
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:1:8 @ First I thank my God, through Jesus Christ, for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout all the world.
mnt@Romans:1:10 @ always entreating him that now at length, if such be his will, the way may be made clear for me to come to you.
mnt@Romans:1:11 @ For I am longing so to see you, in order to impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established;
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:1:13 @ I want you to know, brothers, that many a time I have planned to come to you - though until now I have been hindered - so as to have some harvest-fruit among you also, even as I have among the rest of the Gentiles.
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:1:17 @ FOR IN IT IS BEING REVEALED A RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH PROCEEDS FROM GOD, FROM FAITH UNTO FAITH; AS IT IS WRITTEN.
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:1:19 @ This is so because that which may be known of God is manifest among them; for God has made it manifest to them.
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:1:22 @ While they professed to be wise, they became fools,
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:1:30 @ They became whisperers, back-biters, hated of God, insolent, haughty, boastful. They invented sins. They were disobedient to parents.
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:2:8 @ 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:2:12 @ 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:2:13 @ For it is not the hearers of law who are righteous in the eyes of God; nay, it is the doers of law who will be accounted righteous.
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:2:15 @ For they show that the work of the Law is written in their hearts, while their conscience bears them witness, as their reasonings accuse, or it may be defend, them,
mnt@Romans:2:17 @ Now if you bear the name of a Jew, and rely upon law, and boast yourself in God,
mnt@Romans:2:20 @ 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:2:24 @ For the name of God is continually blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, even as the Scripture itself says.
mnt@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision does indeed profit, if you are obedient to the Law; but if you habitually break the Law, your circumcision is become uncircumcision.
mnt@Romans:2:26 @ So if the uncircumcised keeps the ordinance of the Law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned equivalent to circumcision.
mnt@Romans:3:2 @ Much in every way. First of all, because to them were entrusted the oracles of 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:3:6 @ Be it far from us; for in that case how could God judge the world?
mnt@Romans:3:7 @ But if by a falsehood of mine the truthfulness of God has been made to redound to his glory, why am I still tried as a sinner?
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:3:12 @ All have swerved from the right path; Every one of them has become corrupt. There is none that practises good, no, not one.
mnt@Romans:3:18 @ Reverence for God is not before their eyes.
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:3:20 @ For no man will be justified in Gods sight by works of the Law; for through the Law comes the consciousness of sin.
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:3:24 @ but they are now being justified by his free grace through the deliverance that is in Christ Jesus.
mnt@Romans:3:25 @ For God openly set him forth for himself as an offering of atonement through faith, by means of his blood, in order to show forth his righteousness - since in his forbearance he had passed over the sins previously committed - to show forth his righteousness,
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:3:27 @ Then what becomes of boasting? It is shut out. What sort of law forbids it? A law of works? No, but a law of faith.
mnt@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to be proud of, but not before God.
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:4:5 @ but a man who does not "work," but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, has his faith imputed to him for 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:4:13 @ For the promise that he should be heir of the world did not come to Abraham or to his posterity through law, but through faith- righteousness.
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:4:18 @ For Abraham, hoping against hope, had faith to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, So numberless shall your descendants be.
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:4:20 @ Nor did he with regard to the promise of God waver in unbelief, but he waxed strong in faith, while he gave God glory,
mnt@Romans:4:24 @ For it will be "reckoned for righteousness." to us also, who believe on him that raised from the dead our Lord Jesus;
mnt@Romans:4:25 @ who was betrayed to death for our transgressions, and raised again to life for our justification.
mnt@Romans:5:9 @ By how much more, then, being now justified in his blood, shall we be saved through him from the wrath of God.
mnt@Romans:5:10 @ For if, when we were Gods enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved in his life.
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:5:19 @ For just as through the disobedience of one man the rest were made sinners; even so by the obedience of One shall all the rest be made righteous.
mnt@Romans:6:3 @ For do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Jesus Christ, have been baptized into his death?
mnt@Romans:6:4 @ We have been buried together with him, then, through baptism into his death, in order that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we should live in a newness of life.
mnt@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, so we shall also be united with him in the likeness of his resurrection.
mnt@Romans:6:6 @ For this we know, that our old self was crucified with Christ, in order that the slave of sin might be destroyed; so that we should no longer be in slavery to sin -
mnt@Romans:6:8 @ Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him;
mnt@Romans:6:9 @ knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more; death has no more dominion over him.
mnt@Romans:6:11 @ Even so count yourselves also to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.
mnt@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore let not sin rule as king in your mortal body, compelling you to obey its lusts.
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:6:15 @ What then? Shall we commit an act of sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Certainly not.
mnt@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that when you surrender yourselves as slaves to any one to obey him, you are his slaves whom you obey; whether it be sin, whose end is death, or obedience, whose end is righteousness?
mnt@Romans:6:17 @ But God be thanked that you who were once the slaves of sin have obeyed from your hearts that type of teaching to which you were appointed;
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:7:3 @ 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:7:4 @ So also, my brother, you were made dead to the Law through the body of Christ; that you should be joined to another, even to Him who was raised from the dead that we might bear fruit for God.
mnt@Romans:7:5 @ For while we were unspiritual, the sinful passions, aroused by the Law, were ever active in every part of our bodies, leading us to bear fruit unto death.
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:7:7 @ What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? Certainly not. On the contrary I should not have become acquainted with sin had it not been for the Law; for except the Law had repeatedly said, "Thou shalt not lust," I should never have known the sin of lust.
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:7:13 @ 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:8:4 @ in order that the Law might be fulfilled in us who order our lives not after the flesh, but after the spirit.
mnt@Romans:8:6 @ To be earthly minded means death; To be spiritually minded means life and peace.
mnt@Romans:8:7 @ For to be earthly minded is enmity against God; For such a mind is not subject to the Law of God, Nor can it be;
mnt@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, though your bodily self is dead because of sin, your spirit is full of life because of righteousness.
mnt@Romans:8:15 @ For you have not received a spirit of slavery in order that you should once more be afraid; but you have received a spirit of adoption, in which we cry out, "My Father, my dear Father!"
mnt@Romans:8:16 @ For his Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are children of 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:8:18 @ For I count as nothing what we now suffer, in comparison with the glory which will soon be unveiled to us.
mnt@Romans:8:21 @ yet not without the hope that some day nature itself also will be freed from the thraldom of decay, into the freedom which belongs to the glory of the children of God.
mnt@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that all nature has been groaning and travailing together until this hour.
mnt@Romans:8:26 @ In the same way the Spirit also takes hold with us in our weakness; for we know knot how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
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:8:28 @ Now we know that all things continually work together for good to to those who love God, to those who have been the called according to his purpose.
mnt@Romans:8:29 @ For whom he foreknew, he also foreordained to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, so that he might be the eldest of a great brotherhood;
mnt@Romans:8:31 @ What shall we say then, to these things? If God be for us, Who can be against us?
mnt@Romans:8:39 @ Nor height, nor depth, Nor any other created thing, Shall be able to separate us from the love of God Which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
mnt@Romans:9:1 @ I am speaking the truth in Christ, it is no lie. My conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit that I have deep sorrow
mnt@Romans:9:3 @ For I was on the point of praying to be accursed from Christ on behalf of my brothers, my kinsmen according to the flesh.
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:9:7 @ they are not all children of Abraham because they are Abrahams descendants. The promise was, In Isaac shall thy posterity be called.
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:9:23 @ 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:9:29 @ 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:10:2 @ For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, only it is a zeal without knowledge.
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:10:4 @ For to every believer Christ is an end of law as a means of righteousness.
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:10:11 @ The Scriptures say, Whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame.
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:10:13 @ for Whoever will call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.
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:10:21 @ But to Israel he says, All day long I have been spreading out my hands unto a disobedient and contrary people.
mnt@Romans:11:1 @ Then I ask, Did God cast off his people? No indeed. For I also am an Israelite, a son of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.
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:11:8 @ According as it is written, God has given them a spirit of slumber, Eyes that they should not see, Ears that they should not hear, unto this day.
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:11:15 @ For if their casting out is the reconciliation of the world to God, what will their restoration be but life out of death?
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:11:18 @ or if you are glorying, remember that it is not you who uphold the root, but the root which upholds you.
mnt@Romans:11:19 @ "Branches have been broken off," you say, "that I might be grafted in."
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:11:25 @ For I would not, my brothers, have you ignorant of this hidden truth, for fear that you become wise in your own conceits. that a hardening in part has befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles is come in.
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:11:30 @ And as in times past you were yourselves disobedient to God, but now, thanks to their disobedience, have obtained mercy;
mnt@Romans:11:31 @ even so they also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they also may now obtain mercy.
mnt@Romans:11:32 @ For God has locked up all in the prison of disobedience, that upon all he may have mercy.
mnt@Romans:11:34 @ Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counsellor?
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:12:3 @ For, through the grace that was given to me, I tell every man among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but so to think, as to think soberly, according to the measure of faith which God has given him.
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:12:9 @ Let love be without insincerity. Abhor what is evil; wed yourselves to what is good.
mnt@Romans:12:10 @ As for brotherly love, be tenderly affectionate one to another, in honor preferring one another.
mnt@Romans:12:11 @ In your diligence be free from sloth. Be glowing in spirit. Slave for the master.
mnt@Romans:12:12 @ Rejoice in hope; be patient under affliction; continue stedfast in prayer.
mnt@Romans:12:13 @ Be liberal to needy saints. Practise hospitality.
mnt@Romans:12:16 @ Have full sympathy with one another. Set not your minds on high affairs, but associate with lowly folk. Do not be wise in your own conceits.
mnt@Romans:12:18 @ If it be possible, so far as it lies with you, be at peace with all men.
mnt@Romans:12:19 @ Never revenge yourself, beloved, but leave the field clear for Gods wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay," says the Lord.
mnt@Romans:12:20 @ On the contrary, therefore, If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will be heaping burning coals on his head.
mnt@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but be overcoming evil with good.
mnt@Romans:13:1 @ Every one should be in the higher authorities; for there is no authority apart from God. The authorities that now exist have been appointed by God.
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:13:4 @ For the ruler is Gods minister appointed for your good. But if you are a wrong-doer, be afraid; he does not carry the sword to no purpose; he is Gods servant, appointed to vengeance upon the guilty.
mnt@Romans:13:5 @ Wherefore you must needs be in subjection, not only because of fear, but also for conscience sake.
mnt@Romans:13:6 @ This too, is the reason why you pay taxes; because the authorities are ministers of Gods service, attending continually upon this very thing.
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:13:11 @ Carry out these injunctions because you know the crisis that we are in, that now it is high time for you to awake out of sleep; for now is our salvation nearer than when we first believed.
mnt@Romans:14:5 @ There are some who esteem one day above another; there are others who esteem all days alike; let each other be fully persuaded in his own mind.
mnt@Romans:14:8 @ If we live, we live unto our Lord; if we die, we die unto our Lord. So then, whether we live or die, we belong to our Lord.
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:14:13 @ So let us no longer pass judgment on one another; rather let this be your judgment, that no one put a stumbling-block in his brothers way, nor any cause of falling.
mnt@Romans:14:15 @ If your brother is continually pained because of your food, you are not conducting yourself any longer in love. Do not, by what you eat, persist in destroying a man for whom Christ died.
mnt@Romans:14:16 @ Therefore do not let what is right, so far as you are concerned, be evil spoken of.
mnt@Romans:14:20 @ Do not, for the sake of food, be tearing down Gods work. All food indeed is ceremonially clean, but a man is in the wrong if his food proves a stumbling-block.
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:15:8 @ For I say that Christ has been made a minister of the Circumcision the people of Israel, in vindication of Gods truth, so that he may confirm the promises given to our forefathers;
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:15:15 @ Still I have written unto you the more boldly, in part, by way of reminding you, because of that gift of grace which God bestowed upon me, in making me a priest of Jesus Christ unto the Gentiles.
mnt@Romans:15:16 @ I act as priest of the gospel of God; so that the Gentiles, when offered before him, may be an acceptable sacrifice, because consecrated by the Holy Spirit.
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:15:20 @ My ambition has been, however, to preach the gospel where Christs name was not already known, so that I might not build upon another mans foundation.
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:15:22 @ This is why I have been so hindered from coming 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:15:30 @ 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:15:31 @ that I may be delivered from the disobedient in Judea; that my mission to Jerusalem may be favorably received by the saints;
mnt@Romans:15:33 @ The God of peace be with you all! Amen.
mnt@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a minister of the church at Cenchrae.
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:16:5 @ but by all the churches among the Gentiles. Salute likewise the church that meets in their home. Salute Epaenetus, my dearly beloved, the first man in Roman Asia to believe in 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:16:8 @ Salute Amplias, my beloved in the Lord;
mnt@Romans:16:11 @ and Herodion, my kinsman. Salute the believing members of the household of Narcissus.
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:16:19 @ I say this, for the tidings of your obedience have been told throughout the world. On your own behalf, then, I rejoice; but I want you to be wise unto the good, but innocents in evil.
mnt@Romans:16:20 @ The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
mnt@Romans:16:24 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all!
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@Romans:16:27 @ Unto Him, the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be glory forever. Amen.
mnt@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, called by the will of God to be an apostle of Jesus Christ, and Sosthenes, his brother.
mnt@1Corinthians:1:2 @ to the Church of God at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, together with all, wherever they are, who call upon the name of the Lord Jesus.
mnt@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I am always thanking God on your behalf, for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus;
mnt@1Corinthians:1:5 @ that in everything you have been enriched in him, in all speech, and in all knowledge
mnt@1Corinthians:1:8 @ He will also keep you perfectly stedfast unto the end, so that you will be unreprovable in the Day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
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:1:11 @ For it has been plainly told me concerning you, my brothers, by Chloes people, that there are dissensions among you.
mnt@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Has Christ been divided? Paul, was he crucified for you? or was it into the name of Paul that you were baptized?
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:1:21 @ For when, in the wisdom of God, the world by its philosophy knew not God, the world by its philosophy knew not God, it pleased God, by the foolishness of preaching, to save those who believe.
mnt@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For consider your own calling, brothers, that not many wise in earthly wisdom, not many powerful, not many of noble birth, have been called.
mnt@1Corinthians:2:7 @ No, it is Gods wisdom that I utter, that hidden wisdom which God had decreed before the world began, unto our glory.
mnt@1Corinthians:3:1 @ As for me, brothers, I could not talk to you as spiritual men, but as to creatures of flesh, mere babes in Christ.
mnt@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I fed you milk, not meat; for you were unable to bear it.
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:3:5 @ 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:3:10 @ According to the grace of God vouchsafed me, like a skillful master- builder, I have laid a foundation; but another will be building upon it. Let each take heed how he builds on it.
mnt@1Corinthians:3:12 @ On that foundation, if a man proceeds to build gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble, each mans work will be made manifest.
mnt@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If any mans work - the building he has made - stands the test, he will be rewarded.
mnt@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If any mans work is burned up, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, as it were through the flames.
mnt@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If any one of you supposes that he is wise in the philosophy of the present age, let him become foolish, so that he may be wise.
mnt@1Corinthians:4:2 @ Now it is required of stewards, that a man be found faithful.
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:4:13 @ When reviled, we bless; when persecuted, we endure; when defamed, we conciliate. We have been made, as it were, scum-o-the-earth, the very refuse of the world, to this very hour!
mnt@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I am not writing this to shame you, but to admonish you, as my beloved children.
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:4:16 @ I beg you then to imitate my example.
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:5:7 @ Then get rid of the old leaven, so that you may be like a new lump, as you are now unleavened. For our Paschal Lamb has already been sacrificed, Christ himself.
mnt@1Corinthians:6:1 @ Dare any one of you who has a grievance against his neighbor go to law before heathen judges, instead of before the saints?
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:6:4 @ Why then, if you have cases relating to earthly affairs which need to be decided, is it men who are absolutely nothing in the church whom you make your judges?
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:6:7 @ Indeed, to say nothing more, the fact that you have lawsuits with one another is altogether a defect in you. Why not rather suffer injustice? Why not rather endure being cheated?
mnt@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. None who are immoral, or idolaters, or adulterers, or catamites, or sodomites,
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:6:12 @ "All things are lawful for me"? Yes, but not all things are good for me. "All things are lawful for me"? Yes, but I will not let myself be enslaved by the power of any.
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:6:16 @ Do you not know that he who joins himself to a harlot is one with her in body? (For God says, The two shall become one flesh.)
mnt@1Corinthians:6:20 @ You are not your own; for you have been bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your bodies.
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:7:5 @ 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:7:9 @ If, however, they are not exercising self-control, by all means let them marry; for marriage is
