Romans:1:13 @ Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but was hindered until now), that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles.
nkjv@Romans:1:20 @ For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
nkjv@Romans:1:21 @ because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
nkjv@Romans:1:32 @ who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
nkjv@Romans:2:2 @ But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.
nkjv@Romans:2:5 @ But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,
nkjv@Romans:2:8 @ but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness--indignation and wrath,
nkjv@Romans:2:10 @ but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
nkjv@Romans:2:13 @ (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified;
nkjv@Romans:2:25 @ For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
nkjv@Romans:2:29 @ but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.
nkjv@Romans:3:4 @ Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written: "That You may be justified in Your words, And may overcome when You are judged."
nkjv@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust who inflicts wrath? (I speak as a man.)
nkjv@Romans:3:21 @ But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,
nkjv@Romans:3:27 @ Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.
nkjv@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.
nkjv@Romans:4:4 @ Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt.
nkjv@Romans:4:5 @ But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,
nkjv@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it accounted? While he was circumcised, or uncircumcised? Not while circumcised, but while uncircumcised.
nkjv@Romans:4:12 @ and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while still uncircumcised.
nkjv@Romans:4:13 @ For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
nkjv@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all
nkjv@Romans:4:20 @ He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God,
nkjv@Romans:4:24 @ but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead,
nkjv@Romans:5:3 @ And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;
nkjv@Romans:5:8 @ But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
nkjv@Romans:5:11 @ And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
nkjv@Romans:5:13 @ (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
nkjv@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man's offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.
nkjv@Romans:5:16 @ And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification.
nkjv@Romans:5:20 @ Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,
nkjv@Romans:6:10 @ For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.
nkjv@Romans:6:11 @ Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
nkjv@Romans:6:13 @ And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
nkjv@Romans:6:14 @ For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.
nkjv@Romans:6:15 @ What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!
nkjv@Romans:6:17 @ But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered.
nkjv@Romans:6:22 @ But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.
nkjv@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
nkjv@Romans:7:2 @ For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband.
nkjv@Romans:7:3 @ So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law, so that she is no adulteress, though she has married another man.
nkjv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
nkjv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead.
nkjv@Romans:7:9 @ I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.
nkjv@Romans:7:13 @ Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.
nkjv@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.
nkjv@Romans:7:15 @ For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do.
nkjv@Romans:7:17 @ But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.
nkjv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.
nkjv@Romans:7:19 @ For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice.
nkjv@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.
nkjv@Romans:7:23 @ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
nkjv@Romans:7:25 @ I thank God--through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.
nkjv@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
nkjv@Romans:8:4 @ that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
nkjv@Romans:8:5 @ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
nkjv@Romans:8:6 @ For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
nkjv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.
nkjv@Romans:8:10 @ And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
nkjv@Romans:8:11 @ But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
nkjv@Romans:8:13 @ For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
nkjv@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."
nkjv@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;
nkjv@Romans:8:23 @ Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
nkjv@Romans:8:24 @ For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?
nkjv@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.
nkjv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
nkjv@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?
nkjv@Romans:9:6 @ But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel,
nkjv@Romans:9:7 @ nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, "In Isaac your seed shall be called."
nkjv@Romans:9:8 @ That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed.
nkjv@Romans:9:10 @ And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac
nkjv@Romans:9:11 @ (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls),
nkjv@Romans:9:13 @ As it is written, "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated."
nkjv@Romans:9:16 @ So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.
nkjv@Romans:9:20 @ But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, "Why have you made me like this?"
nkjv@Romans:9:24 @ even us whom He called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
nkjv@Romans:9:31 @ but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.
nkjv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone.
nkjv@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
nkjv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, "Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?"' (that is, to bring Christ down from above)
nkjv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we preach):
nkjv@Romans:10:16 @ But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "LORD, who has believed our report?"
nkjv@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed: "Their sound has gone out to all the earth, And their words to the ends of the world."
nkjv@Romans:10:19 @ But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says: "I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, I will move you to anger by a foolish nation."
nkjv@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaiah is very bold and says: "I was found by those who did not seek Me; I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me."
nkjv@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says: "All day long I have stretched out My hands To a disobedient and contrary people."
nkjv@Romans:11:4 @ But what does the divine response say to him? "I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal."
nkjv@Romans:11:6 @ And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
nkjv@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel has not obtained what it seeks; but the elect have obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
nkjv@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.
nkjv@Romans:11:15 @ For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?
nkjv@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.
nkjv@Romans:11:20 @ Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear.
nkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
nkjv@Romans:11:28 @ Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.
nkjv@Romans:12:2 @ And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
nkjv@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.
nkjv@Romans:12:4 @ For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function,
nkjv@Romans:12:13 @ distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.
nkjv@Romans:12:16 @ Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
nkjv@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord.
nkjv@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
nkjv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.
nkjv@Romans:13:4 @ For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.
nkjv@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience' sake.
nkjv@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.
nkjv@Romans:14:1 @ Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things.
nkjv@Romans:14:2 @ For one believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
nkjv@Romans:14:10 @ But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
nkjv@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother's way.
nkjv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
nkjv@Romans:14:17 @ for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
nkjv@Romans:14:20 @ Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure, but it is evil for the man who eats with offense.
nkjv@Romans:14:23 @ But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.
nkjv@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me."
nkjv@Romans:15:21 @ but as it is written: "To whom He was not announced, they shall see; And those who have not heard shall understand."
nkjv@Romans:15:23 @ But now no longer having a place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you,
nkjv@Romans:15:25 @ But now I am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.
nkjv@Romans:15:26 @ For it pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.
nkjv@Romans:15:29 @ But I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.
nkjv@Romans:16:4 @ who risked their own necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.
nkjv@Romans:16:18 @ For those who are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by smooth words and flattering speech deceive the hearts of the simple.
nkjv@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil.
nkjv@Romans:16:26 @ but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith--
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:23 @ but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:24 @ but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption--
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory,
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him."
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:13 @ These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:15 @ But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one.
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:16 @ For "who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
nkjv@1Corinthians:3:1 @ And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ.
nkjv@1Corinthians:3:5 @ Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?
nkjv@1Corinthians:3:6 @ I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.
nkjv@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.
nkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.
nkjv@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If anyone's work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
nkjv@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by a human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.
nkjv@1Corinthians:4:4 @ For I know of nothing against myself, yet I am not justified by this; but He who judges me is the Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are distinguished, but we are dishonored!
nkjv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.
nkjv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills, and I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power.
nkjv@1Corinthians:4:20 @ For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power.
nkjv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed.
nkjv@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
nkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.
nkjv@1Corinthians:5:13 @ But those who are outside God judges. Therefore "put away from yourselves the evil person."
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers!
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:12 @ All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:13 @ Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:4 @ The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:6 @ But I say this as a concession, not as a commandment.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:7 @ For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am;
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:10 @ Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is willing to live with him, let him not divorce her.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbeliever departs, let him depart; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God has called us to peace.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk. And so I ordain in all the churches.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:19 @ Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But even if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Nevertheless such will have trouble in the flesh, but I would spare you.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:29 @ But this I say, brethren, the time is short, so that from now on even those who have wives should be as though they had none,
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:32 @ But I want you to be without care. He who is unmarried cares for the things of the Lord--how he may please the Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But he who is married cares about the things of the world--how he may please his wife.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world--how she may please her husband.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:35 @ And this I say for your own profit, not that I may put a leash on you, but for what is proper, and that you may serve the Lord without distraction.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any man thinks he is behaving improperly toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of youth, and thus it must be, let him do what he wishes. He does not sin; let them marry.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:37 @ Nevertheless he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has power over his own will, and has so determined in his heart that he will keep his virgin, does well.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So then he who gives her in marriage does well, but he who does not give her in marriage does better.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is at liberty to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But she is happier if she remains as she is, according to my judgment--and I think I also have the Spirit of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:3 @ But if anyone loves God, this one is known by Him.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Therefore concerning the eating of things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But beware lest somehow this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:12 @ But when you thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others are partakers of this right over you, are we not even more? Nevertheless we have not used this right, but endure all things lest we hinder the gospel of Christ.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for it would be better for me to die than that anyone should make my boasting void.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but if against my will, I have been entrusted with a stewardship.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:21 @ to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ ), that I might win those who are without law;
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:25 @ And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:5 @ But with most of them God was not well pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:23 @ All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:24 @ Let no one seek his own, but each one the other's well-being.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; for "the earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness."
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ "Conscience," I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience?
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:30 @ But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food over which I give thanks?
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:8 @ For man is not from woman, but woman from man.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:9 @ Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now in giving these instructions I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better but for the worse.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:28 @ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I will set in order when I come.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For in fact the body is not one member but many.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:31 @ But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:6 @ does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:10 @ But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:13 @ And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching?
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For you indeed give thanks well, but the other is not edified.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brethren, do not be children in understanding; however, in malice be babes, but in understanding be mature.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophesying is not for unbelievers but for those who believe.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all.
