mnt@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:1:8 @ 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:1:16 @ 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:1:23 @ 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:2:1 @ You are therefore inexcusable, O man, whoever you are, that sits in judgment; for in judging another you are condemning yourself. You, the judge, are habitually practising the very same things.

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:2:6 @ For He will render to every man according to his works;

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

mnt@Romans:2:11 @ For there is no partiality with God.

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:2:20 @ 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:2:28 @ For the real Jew is not the man who is one outwardly, and the real circumcision is not outward in the flesh;

mnt@Romans:3:6 @ Be it far from us; for in that case how could God judge the world?

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:3:18 @ Reverence for God is not before their eyes.

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:3:22 @ 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:3:25 @ 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:3:27 @ 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:3:28 @ For I conclude that a man is justified by faith, altogether apart from the deeds of the Law.

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:4:9 @ Is this blessing, then, for the circumcised alone? or for the uncircumcised also? Abrahams faith, I say, was imputed to him for righteousness.

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:4:15 @ For law works wrath; but where there is no law, neither is there transgression.

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:4:21 @ 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:4:23 @ Now these words were not written simply for his sake, but for us as well.

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:5:3 @ 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:5:5 @ a hope which never disappoints us. For through the Holy Spirit who has given to us, the "brimming river of the love of God" has overflowed in our hearts.

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

mnt@Romans:5:7 @ Why, a man will hardly give his life for another, even for a righteous man, though perchance for a good man one might even take it upon himself to die.

mnt@Romans:5:8 @ But God gives proof of his love to us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

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:5:13 @ For prior to the Law, sin actually existed in the world, but sin was not set down to mans account when there was no law.

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:5:19 @ 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:6:5 @ 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:6:7 @ for he who is dead is set free from sin.

mnt@Romans:6:10 @ For the death that he died, he died unto sin once for all; but the life that he lives he is living unto God.

mnt@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore let not sin rule as king in your mortal body, compelling you to obey its lusts.

mnt@Romans:6:14 @ For sin shall not lord it over you; for you are not under the rule of law, but under the rule of grace.

mnt@Romans:6:20 @ For when you were the slaves of sin, you were under no subjection to righteousness.

mnt@Romans:6:21 @ What harvest-fruit then had you at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.

mnt@Romans:6:23 @ FOR THE POOR WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH, BUT THE FREE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS, OUR MASTER.

mnt@Romans:7:1 @ Surely, brothers, you know (for I am speaking to those who know what law means) that law governs a person only during his lifetime?

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:7:4 @ 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:7:7 @ 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:7:8 @ 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:7:11 @ 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: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:7:15 @ For what I perform I know not; what I practise is not what I intend to do, but what I detest, that I habitually do.

mnt@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that in me, that is in my flesh, no good thing has its home; for while to will is present with me, to carry out that which is right is not.

mnt@Romans:7:19 @ For the good that I intend to do, I do not; but the evil which I do not; but the evil which I do not intend to do, that I am ever practising.

mnt@Romans:7:22 @ For in my inmost self I delight in the law of God;

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:8:5 @ For they who live after the flesh, give their attention to the things of the flesh; But they who live after the spirit, give their attention to spiritual things.

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:8:12 @ Therefore, brothers, we are debtors - but not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh;

mnt@Romans:8:13 @ for if you go on living according to the flesh, you are on the road to die; but if by the Spirit you keep putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

mnt@Romans:8:14 @ For only those are sons of God who are led by Gods Spirit.

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:8:18 @ For I count as nothing what we now suffer, in comparison with the glory which will soon be unveiled to us.

mnt@Romans:8:19 @ All nature even is waiting with eager longing for the unveiling of the vision of Gods sons.

mnt@Romans:8:20 @ For nature was subjected to imperfection, not by its own will, but by the will of Him who thus made it subject -

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:8:24 @ For by hope we are saved; but hope which is clearly seen is no longer hope.

mnt@Romans:8:25 @ Who hopes for what he clearly sees? But if we hope for something that we do not see, we then patiently wait for it.

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:8:30 @ 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:8:31 @ What shall we say then, to these things? If God be for us, Who can be against us?

mnt@Romans:8:32 @ He that spared not his own Son, But freely delivered him up for us all, How shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

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:8:36 @ Even as it is written. For thy sake we are killed all the day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

mnt@Romans:8:38 @ For I am fully persuaded that neither death nor life, Neither angels nor principalities, nor powers, Neither the present world nor the world to come, Nor the powers of Nature,

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

mnt@Romans:9:6 @ It is not, however, as though Gods word had failed! For they are not all Israel who have sprung from Israel;

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:9:17 @ 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:9:20 @ "Nay, but who are you, O man, that replies to God? Shall the thing formed say unto him who formed it, "Why did you do me like this?"

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

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:10:5 @ For Moses writes concerning the righteousness of the Law, saying, The man that doeth it shall live by it.

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:10:13 @ for Whoever will call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.

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:10:20 @ But Isaiah speaks very boldly, I was found of those who were not seeking me, I was made manifest to those who were not asking for me.

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:11:2 @ God did not cast off his people whom he foreknew. For do you not know what is said in the Scripture about Elijah? how he pleaded with God against Israel, saying,

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

mnt@Romans:11:13 @ For to you who are Gentiles I say that since I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I glorify my ministry,

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:11:21 @ for if God spared not the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

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:11:28 @ In relation to the gospel, the Jews are Gods enemies for your sake; but in relation to the election, they are dearly loved for their forefathers sake.

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

mnt@Romans:11:32 @ For God has locked up all in the prison of disobedience, that upon all he may have mercy.

mnt@Romans:11:36 @ 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:12:3 @ 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:12:10 @ 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:12:17 @ Do not pay back evil for evil. Aim to do what is honorable in the eyes of all.

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: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:13:8 @ Never owe any one anything save the debt of brotherly love; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law.

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:13:10 @ Love never wrongs his neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilment of the Law.

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

mnt@Romans:14:1 @ Welcome a man of weak faith, but not for the purpose of deciding doubtful points.

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:14:15 @ 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:14:17 @ 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:14:20 @ 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:15:2 @ Let each one of us try to make his neighbor happy for his good, unto his upbuilding.

mnt@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ pleased not himself; but as it is written, The reproaches of those who were reproaching thee fell upon me.

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:15:7 @ Wherefore always receive one another into fellowship, to the glory of God, even as Christ also received you.

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:15:9 @ 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:15:16 @ 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:15:23 @ 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: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:16:6 @ Salute Mary, who toiled terribly for you;

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:16:18 @ 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:16:27 @ Unto Him, the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be glory forever. Amen.

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:1:6 @ (for thus my witness for Christ was confirmed among you);

mnt@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you lack no divine gift, while you are waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

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:1:18 @ For the message of the Cross is indeed for those on their way to destruction, foolishness; but for us who are on our way to salvation it is the power of God.

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:1:21 @ 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:1:22 @ Jews continue to ask for miracles and Greeks are ever wanting philosophy,

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

mnt@1Corinthians:1:26 @ 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:2:2 @ for I determined to know nothing, while among you, but Jesus as Christ, and him a crucified Christ.

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: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:2:9 @ Nay, as it is written. Eye has not seen, Nor ear heard, Neither have entered into mans heart The things which God has prepared For those who love him.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:10 @ Yet God has unveiled them to us by his Spirit. For the Spirit fathoms everything, even the abysmal depths of God.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For what man knows the depths of man except the mans own inner Spirit? Even so, also, the Spirit of God knows the deeps profound of God.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:12 @ But we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which comes forth from God, that we may realize the blessings freely given us by God.

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

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:3:17 @ 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:3:19 @ For the philosophy of this world is foolishness in Gods sight. It is written, He snares the wise in their own craftiness,

mnt@1Corinthians:3:21 @ So let no one make boast in men. For all things are yours;

mnt@1Corinthians:4:4 @ Indeed I do not even judge myself; for though I know nothing against myself, yet that does not vindicate me; for he who judges me is the Lord.

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:4:7 @ For who makes you a differ, brother? Or what have you that you did not receive? But if you did receive it, why are you boasting as if you had not received it?

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:4:10 @ For Christs sake we are fools, but you are quite philosophic in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong; you are honorable, but we are outcast.

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:4:20 @ For the kingdom of God is not in talk, but in power.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For I, although absent in body, yet present in spirit, have already passed sentence, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, on him who has done this thing.

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:5:10 @ Not that in this world you were actually to have no contact with the immoral, the avaricious, the thievish, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world, altogether.

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

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:6:13 @ "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:6:15 @ 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:7:1 @ Now concerning the question in your letter. It is well for a man to have no intercourse with a woman,

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:7:9 @ If, however, they are not exercising self-control, by all means let them marry; for marriage is better than the fever of passion.

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:7:16 @ 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:7:22 @ 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:7:26 @ I think then, that in view of the time of suffering now imminent, it is best for a man to remain as he is.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from the marriage bond? Do not seek for a wife.

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: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:8:10 @ For if any one should see you, the possessor of "knowledge," reclining at table in an idols temple, would not his conscience, if he were weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?

mnt@1Corinthians:8:11 @ So he is lost, this weak man, lost by your "knowledge." this brother for whom Christ died.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:9:2 @ Even if I am not an apostle to others, to you at least I am; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

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:9:11 @ If I have sown for you the seeds of spiritual good, is it a great thing if I reap from you temporal goods?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But for my part, I have never availed myself of any of these rights. I do not say this to bring it about in my own case. I would rather die than let any one make void this boast of mine.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:16 @ Proclaiming the gospel gives me no ground of boasting; for necessity is laid upon me; woe is me if I preach not the gospel.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this of my own accord, I have my pay; but if unwilling, I have at least discharged my stewardship.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:9:26 @ For my part, then, I run with no wavering to the goal. I box not as one beating the air,

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:10:4 @ 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:10:5 @ But in most of them God was not well pleased, for they were laid low in the desert.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:6 @ Now this happened as a warning for us, that we might not long for evil things as they longed.

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:10:11 @ 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:10:17 @ Because we who are many are one bread, one body, for we all do share in the one loaf.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat anything that is for sale in the markets, asking no questions for conscience sake;

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:10:28 @ But if any one tells you, "This food has been offered in sacrifice," do not eat it, for the sake of him who told you,

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:10:30 @ If I eat after giving thanks, why am I denounced for eating that for which I have given thanks?"

mnt@1Corinthians:10:31 @ Because whether you are eating or whether you are drinking, you are to do it all for the glory of God.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:33 @ For so I also try to please all men in every way, not by seeking my own good, but the good of the many, that they may be saved.

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:11:5 @ 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:11:6 @ If a woman does not wear a veil, let her also cut off her hair; now if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, let her be veiled.

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:11:8 @ For it is not man who was made from woman, but woman was made from man.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:11:10 @ For this reason the woman ought to have authority over her head, because of her guardian angels.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:12 @ for just as the woman was made from the man, so also is the man born of the woman, while they both come from God.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge of this for your own selves. It is fitting that a woman should pray to God with her head unveiled.

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:11:21 @ for each one of you begins to eat his own supper; one goes hungry, while another gets drunk.

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:11:23 @ For I passed on to you the account, which I myself received from the Lord; how the Lord Jesus, on the very night he was betrayed, took bread,

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

mnt@1Corinthians:11:33 @ So, my brothers, whenever you come together for this meal, wait for one another.

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:12:7 @ Now to each man has been given his manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:8 @ For to one man by the Spirit has been given a word of wisdom, to another a word of insight by the same Spirit;

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:12:14 @ For the body is not one member, but many.

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:12:24 @ For whereas our comely parts have no need, God has tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to that member in which lacked;

mnt@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there should be no disunion in the body, but that members mutual care for one another.

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:14:2 @ 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:14:5 @ Now I should like you all to speak with "tongues"; but I should rather that you prophesied, For he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless he interprets, so that the church may be built up.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:7 @ For if lifeless instruments such as the flute or the harp give no distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is fluted or harped?

mnt@1Corinthians:14:8 @ Or, for example, if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, what soldier will be prepared for battle?

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:14:12 @ So also in your case, since you are ambitious for spiritual gifts, seek to excel in them for the upbuilding of the church.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is barren.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:16 @ For if you in your spirit bless God, how shall he who fills the place of the unlearned say the Amen to your thanksgiving, when he does not know what you are talking about?

mnt@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So then the gift of tongues is for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; but prophecy is not for unbelievers, but for those who believe.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What follows, then, brothers? Whenever you meet together, each contributes something; a psalm, a sermon, a revelation, a tongue, an interpretation. Let all be done for edification.

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:14:33 @ for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace. This custom prevails in all the churches of the saints.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:34 @ "In your congregation" you write, "as in all the churches of the saints, let the women keep silence in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak. On the contrary let them be subordinate, as also says the law.

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:14:36 @ What, was it from you that the word of God went forth, or to you only did it come?

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

mnt@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For the very first thing I taught you was that I had myself been taught, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scripture,

mnt@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, I who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if the dead rise not, neither has Christ arisen;

mnt@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since by man came to death, by man came also the resurrection from the dead.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:22 @ For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:25 @ For he must rule until he has put all his enemies under his feet.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:27 @ For He hast put all things under his feet, but in that quotation All things are put under him, it is evident that God is excepted, who put all things under Him.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:28 @ For when everything is subjected to him, then the Son himself shall subject himself to Him who made them subject, that God may be all in all.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Else what shall they do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are really not raised, why are they baptized for them?

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:15:34 @ Wake up, do justly, cease from sin; for I say to your shame that some of you have no acquaintance with God.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:41 @ There is one glory of the sun, another of the moon, and another of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this corruptible must be clothed with incorruption, and this mortal must be clothed with immortality.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:58 @ So, my brothers beloved, stand firm, immovable, always abounding in work for the Lord, because you know that your toil is not fruitless in the Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Now concerning the offering for the saints, you also are to do as I directed the church of Galatia.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:4 @ And if it is worth while for me to go too, they will accompany me.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:6 @ I shall remain some time with you; possibly spending the winter, in order that you may help me forward in whatever journey I take.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not wish at this present time to see you merely in passing; but if the Lord permits, I hope to remain some time with you.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:8 @ I am staying for the present in Ephesus, until Pentecost;

mnt@1Corinthians:16:9 @ for a door has opened to me, great and effectual, and the opponents are many.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:10 @ If Timothy come, see to it that he is among you without trepidation; for he is doing the Lords work, as I am, so let no one disparage him.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Whenever he comes to me, send him on his way in peace, for I am expecting him with the other brothers.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our Apollos, I have many times urged him to go to you with the others, but he was always unwilling to go to you at this time. He will come, however, whenever he has a good opportunity.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I am glad that Stephanus and Fortunatus and Achaicus have arrived, for they have made up for your absence.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Thanks be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort,

mnt@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who ever comforts me in all my troubles, so that I may be continually able to comfort those who are in any trouble by the comfort with which God is ever comforting me.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:5 @ For just as I have more than my share in the sufferings of the Christ, so also through the Christ I have more than my share of comfort.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:6 @ If I am afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if I am receiving comfort, it is for your comfort - a comfort produced within you by your patient fortitude, under the same sufferings which I also am enduring.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:7 @ My hope for you is firm; for I know that as you are comrades in my sufferings, so also are you comrades in my comfort.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:11 @ while all of you also are helping me by your prayers; so that from many lips thanksgiving may rise on my behalf for the blessings vouchsafed to me through the intercessions of many.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For this is my proud boast, the testimony of my conscience, that it was in holiness and with pure motives before God, not in worldly wisdom, but in the grace of God, that I have conducted myself in the world, and above all in my relations with you.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For I am writing to you nothing different from what you read aloud and very well recognize, and I hope will continue to recognize to the very end,

mnt@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I intended to visit you, before going elsewhere, that you might have a pleasure twice over.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:16 @ I intended to go by you into Macedonia, and to come again to you from Macedonia, and by you to be sent forward on my way to Judea.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For Jesus Christ, Son of God, who was proclaimed among you by us, that is, by Silvanus and Timothy and me, was not wavering between "Yes" and "No," but in him is the everlasting "Yes."

mnt@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For however many are the promises of God, in him they are "Yes." Therefore also through him let the Amen be said by our voices to the glory of God.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But for my part I call God to witness, as my soul shall answer for it, that it was to spare you that I came not to Corinth

mnt@2Corinthians:1:24 @ (not that I am attempting to lord it over your faith, but rather to work with you for your happiness); for your faith is stedfast.

mnt@2Corinthians:2:2 @ for if I cause you grief, who is there to cause me joy except those whom I have grieved?

mnt@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And for this very reason I wrote you, that I might not come only to be grieved by those who ought to give me joy; and because I trusted in you all, that my joy is the joy of all of you.

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:2:6 @ Sufficient for the offender is the punishment imposed by the majority;

mnt@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so that now you ought rather to forgive and comfort him, lest he should be overwhelmed by the excess of his grief.

mnt@2Corinthians:2:10 @ If you forgive the man, I forgive him, too; for whatever I have forgiven has been forgiven in the presence of Christ,

mnt@2Corinthians:2:11 @ for your sakes, that I may not be overreached by Satan, for I am not ignorant of his devices.

mnt@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I could get no peace of mind because I failed to find Titus, my brother. So I bade them good-bye and started off for Macedonia.

mnt@2Corinthians:2:16 @ to these latter an odor of death to death, to the former, of life to life. For such service as this, who is sufficient?

mnt@2Corinthians:2:17 @ I am; for I am not like most, trafficking in the word of God, but rather from a sincere heart, like a man of God, I speak in Christ, in the very presence of God.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:4 @ Such confidence I have through Christ before God.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:6 @ It is he who has also made me sufficient as a minister of a new covenant; not of a letter but of a spirit; for the letter kills, but the spirit makes alive.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, far more is the ministry of righteousness radiant in glory.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if that which was fading came in glory, far more will that which ever abides be glorious.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:12 @ Therefore, cherishing such a hope, I use great freedom of speech.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:14 @ Nay, their minds were made dull; for to this very day, at the public reading of the Old Testament, the same veil rests thereon, because it is not revealed to them that in Christ the veil is taken away.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:18 @ And we all, with unveiled faces, reflecting like a mirror the glory of the Lord, are ourselves continually being transformed into the same likeness, from glory to glory, as by the Lord, the Spirit.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:2 @ I have renounced the hidden things of shame, not spending my life in craftiness, nor adulterating the word of God; but setting forth the truth openly, I strive to commend myself to every mans conscience as in the sight of God.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:5 @ It is not myself that I proclaim, but Christ Jesus as Master, and myself that I proclaim, and myself your slave for Jesus sake.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For God who said, "Out of darkness light shall shine," is he who has shone in my heart, that the sunrise of the knowledge of God may shine forth in the face of Christ.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:9 @ persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For, alive though I am, I am always given over to death for the sake of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may shine forth in my dying flesh.

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:4:15 @ For everything is for your sakes, so that more abundant grace, because of the thanksgiving of many voices, might overflow to the glory of God.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:16 @ For this reason, as I have said, I do not lose courage, but even though my outward man is wasting away, my inward man is being renewed, day by day.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For my light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working out for me a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory,

mnt@2Corinthians:4:18 @ while I am gazing not at things seen, but at things unseen; for things seen are temporal, but things unseen are eternal.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For I know, if this earthly tent of mine were struck, I have a mansion built by God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For in this tent I am groaning, earnestly longing to be under the cover of my heavenly habitation; if so be that being so covered,

mnt@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For in this tent of mine I am groaning in deep trouble; not that I wish to be unclothed, but to be clothed upon, that what is mortal may be swallowed up in life.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:5 @ And He who has wrought me out for this very end is God, who has given me his Spirit as pledge.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:6 @ Therefore I am always of good courage, because I well know that while I am at home in the body, I am in banishment from the Lord,

mnt@2Corinthians:5:7 @ for I am walking by faith, not by sight.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:9 @ And for this reason I also make it home with the Lord.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all be made manifest, in our true characters, before the Judgment-seat of Christ; so that each one may receive according to that which he has done in his body, whether good or evil.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:12 @ I am not "commending myself to you again," but I am giving you an occasion of boasting on my behalf, so that you may have an answer ready for those who boast in externals, and not in the heart.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if I was "beside myself," it was to God; of if I am now "of sound mind," it is for you.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ overmasters me; because I thus judge that if One has died for all, then all have died;

mnt@2Corinthians:5:15 @ and that he died for all in order that the living may live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again for them.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:16 @ Therefore henceforth I know no one simply as a man - even if I have known Christ as a man, yet now I do so no longer.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For he said. In an acceptable time have I heard thee, And in the day of salvation have I succored thee. Behold, now is the acceptable time! behold, now is the day of salvation!

mnt@2Corinthians:6:7 @ by a true teaching and an energy divine; by the weapons of righteousness, for attack or for defense,

mnt@2Corinthians:6:13 @ I pray you, therefore, in fair exchange (I speak as to my children), let your hearts also be wide open to me.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers; for what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? what communion has light with darkness?

mnt@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what compact has Gods temple with idols? For we are a temple of the living God, as he has said. I will dwell among them, and walk about among them; I will be their God, and they will be my people.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore, Come out from among them and separate yourselves, saith the Lord, touch not what is unclean;

mnt@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Make room for me in your hearts! I have wronged no man, I have ruined no man, I have defrauded no man.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I am not saying this to blame you, for as I have already said, I hold you in my heart to live together and to die together.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:4 @ Great is my faith in you; great is my cheerful assurance in you. I am filled with comfort; in spite of all my troubles, my heart is overflowing with joy.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For even after I reached Macedonia, my flesh had no rest, but I was troubled on every hand. Without were fights; within were, fears.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:6 @ But the God who comforts the down-hearted comforted me by the coming of Titus,

mnt@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not alone by his coming, but also by the comfort you had been to him. For he told me of your eager longing, of your penitence, and of your zeal on my behalf, so that I was happier still.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:8 @ Even if I caused you pain by my letter, I do not regret; though I did regret it when I saw that my letter had caused you pain, even for a time.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For your pain came from God, and so you took no harm from me. For the pain which is from God works repentance leading to salvation, a repentance never to be regretted. But the worlds pain works death.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:11 @ Note the results of this pain which God permitted; what earnestness it has called forth in you, what explanations, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what fervor, what punishment of wrong. In every way you have proved yourselves innocent in the matter.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So then, even if I did write to you, it was not for the sake of the wrong-doer, or of him who had been wronged, but to make clear to yourselves in the sight of God your earnest care for me.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:13 @ This is what comforts me. In addition to this comfort of mine, I have been made still happier by the happiness of Titus; because his spirit was refreshed by you all.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:2 @ For although in heavy trial of affliction, their overbrimming happiness, even in spite of their deep poverty, abounded to the opulence of their unselfishness.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For I can testify that according to their ability, and even beyond their ability, of their own free will, too, they have given help.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, how though he was rich, for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.

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:8:14 @ but burdens are to be equalized. Now your abundance at this present time present time is a supply for their want, in supply for your want; and so burdens be equalized,

mnt@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he not only consented to my request, but being thoroughly in earnest, comes to you of his own accord.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:19 @ More than that, he is the one chosen by the churches to accompany me on my journey, in administering this gift of yours for the Lords glory. And this has my full consent,

mnt@2Corinthians:8:21 @ For I aim at being above reproach, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, remember that he is a partner of mine, and is also my associate in labors for you. As for the other brothers, remember that they are delegates from the churches, men in whom Christ is glorified.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:1 @ It is indeed unnecessary for me to write you in regard to the ministration to the saints at Jerusalem,

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:9:9 @ As it is written. He scattered broadcast, he gave to the poor; His almsgiving continues forever.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:10 @ He who ever supplies seed to the sower, and bread for the food of man, will supply and make plentous your seed, and increase the harvest springing up from your almsgiving.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:13 @ For this ministration proves you. On account of it men glorify God for your faithfulness to your professions of the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your gifts to them and to all.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:14 @ Moreover, in their prayers for you they will be longing after you, because of the exceeding grace of God that is resting upon you.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:15 @ THANKS BE TO GOD FOR HIS UNSPEAKABLE GIFT!

mnt@2Corinthians:10:4 @ for the weapons of my warfare are not weapons of the flesh, but mighty for God, in pulling down all fortresses.

mnt@2Corinthians:10:5 @ For I pull down imaginations and every crag that lifts itself against the knowledge of God. And I carry every thought away into captivity and subjection to Christ;

mnt@2Corinthians:10:8 @ If, however, I were to boast more loudly concerning the authority which the Lord gave me (not to cast you down, but to build you up), I should have no cause for shame.

mnt@2Corinthians:10:10 @ "His letters indeed," says one, "are mighty and forcible, but his personality is weak, and his speech contemptible."

mnt@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For I am not overstepping the limits of my authority, as though I reached you not; since I have already come even as far as Corinth to proclaim the gospel of Christ.

mnt@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For a man is proved worthy, not by his self-commendation, but when he is commended by the Lord.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:2 @ I have a divine jealousy on your behalf; for I betrothed you to one only husband, even to Christ, that I might present you to him, a chaste virgin.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:4 @ If indeed some one is coming to preach another Jesus, whom I did not preach, or you are receiving a Spirit other than you once received, or another gospel which you did not accept before, you would do well to bear with me.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:5 @ For I reckon that I am in no respect behind your superapostolic apostles.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Is it a sin, forsooth, that I humbled myself that you might be exalted, in preaching the gospel to you free of cost?

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:11:12 @ 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@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such fellows are sham apostles of Christ.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:14 @ No wonder! for Satan himself disguises himself as an angel of light.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:21 @ I say that I was weak, and yet for whatever reason any one is bold (I speak in mere folly) I too am bold.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:24 @ Five times at the hands of the Jews, I have received one short of forty lashes.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed forever, knows that I am telling the truth.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:1 @ I am forced to boast, though it is unprofitable, but I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord.;18 I urged Titus to go, and with him I sent our brother. Did Titus make gain of you? And did I not walk in the same spirit as he did? Did I not take the very same steps?

mnt@2Corinthians:12:6 @ If I should choose to continue boasting I should not be foolish, for I should be speaking the truth. But I refrain, lest by the stupendous grandeur of the revelation any one should estimate me beyond what he sees in me, or hears from me.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:7 @ It was for this reason, lest I should be over-elated, that there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to buffet me, lest I should be over-elated.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:9 @ but he has answered me. "My grace is sufficient for you; it is in weakness that my power is perfected."

mnt@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Most gladly therefore will I boast rather of my weakness, that over me like a tent may be pitched the power of Christ. That is why I rejoice in weakness, in ill-treatment, in troubles, in persecutions and calamities for Christs sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I am become a fool - you have forced me to; for you yourselves ought to have been my vindicators. In no respect am I inferior to these superapostolic apostles, even though I am nothing.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:13 @ In what respect, then, were you inferior to the other churches, except that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!

mnt@2Corinthians:12:14 @ And now for the third time I am preparing to visit you. I will not be a burden to you, for I am not seeking yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:15 @ For my part, I will most gladly spend, yea, and will myself be spent, for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I to be loved the less?

mnt@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Do you think that all this time I am defending myself to you? It is before the presence of God that I am speaking in Christ; and all, beloved, for your upbuilding.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I dread that perhaps, when I come, I may not find you to be such as I wish, and that I may be found by you such as you do not wish; I dread lest there should be quarrels, jealousy, tempers, party spirit, slandering, gossip, arrogance, tumults;

mnt@2Corinthians:12:21 @ and lest when I come again my God may humble me before you, and lest I shall mourn for many those who have sinned before, and have not repented of the impurity and immorality and wantonness which they have practised.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have said formerly, and I now forewarn you as when I was present the second time, so now when I am absent the second time, so now when I am absent, saying to those who had sinned before, and to all the rest, "If I come again, I will not spare,"

mnt@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he now lives through the power of God. I also am weak, sharing in his weakness, but I shall live with him by the power of God.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:8 @ For I have no power against the truth, but only in defense of the truth.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:9 @ For I am always glad whenever I am weak, but you are strong. For this also I am praying, for your perfect reformation.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:10 @ For this reason I am writing thus while absent, so that when I come, I may not have to deal sharply, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for pulling down.

mnt@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil age in accordance with the will of our God and Father,

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

mnt@Galatians:1:7 @ for another gospel, which indeed is not another; only there are certain individuals who are troubling you, and desiring to pervert the gospel of Christ.

mnt@Galatians:1:9 @ I have said it before, and I now repeat it, if any one is preaching a gospel to you other than that which you have received, let him be accursed.

mnt@Galatians:1:11 @ For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel I preach is not man-made;

mnt@Galatians:1:12 @ for neither did I myself receive it from man, nor by man was I taught it, but by a revelation an apocalypse of Jesus Christ.

mnt@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, how furiously I used to persecute the church of God, and how I kept seeking to root it out;

mnt@Galatians:1:14 @ and how in my zeal for Judaism I outstripped many of my own age and nation, in my special zeal for the traditions of my forefathers.

mnt@Galatians:1:17 @ or even going up to Jerusalem to see those who had been apostles before me, I went off at once to Arabia, and on my return came back to Damascus.

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:2:5 @ To them we did not yield submission even for an hour, in order that the truth of the gospel might abide unshaken among you.

mnt@Galatians:2:7 @ On the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel for the uncircumcised, just as Peter has with the gospel for the circumcised

mnt@Galatians:2:8 @ (for he who has equipped Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised, equipped me also for the apostleship to the Gentiles),

mnt@Galatians:2:12 @ For until certain men came from James he used to eat with the Gentile Christians, but when they came, he began to draw back and to separate himself, because he was afraid of the circumcision party.

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:2:16 @ "yet because we know that no man is justified by the works of the Law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we ourselves also have put our faith in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the Law; for "By the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified."

mnt@Galatians:2:18 @ For if I am rebuilding the very things which I destroyed, I am proving myself a transgressor.

mnt@Galatians:2:19 @ For it is through law I died to law, in order to live to God.

mnt@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ, so it is no longer I who am living, but it is Christ who is living in me; and the life I am now living in the flesh, I am living in faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me.

mnt@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not annul the grace of God; for if righteousness comes by way of the Law, then indeed Christ died Christ for nothing.

mnt@Galatians:3:1 @ O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you? You, before whose very eyes Jesus Christ was placarded as crucified!

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:3:10 @ but a curse rests on those who have their root in the works of the Law; for it is written. Cursed is every one that continues not in all the things written in the Book of the Law, to do them.

mnt@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse for us (for it is written, Cursed is every one who is hanged upon a tree),

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:3:18 @ For if the inheritance comes from law, it no longer comes from a promise; but God did give it as a free gift to Abraham by a promise.

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:3:21 @ Is the Law then opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not; for if a law had been given which could make alive, then righteousness would actually have come from law;

mnt@Galatians:3:23 @ Before the Faith came we were perpetual prisoners under the Law, in preparation for the destined faith about to be revealed.

mnt@Galatians:3:27 @ For all of you who were baptized into Christ, have clothed yourselves with Christ.

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:4:4 @ But when the fulness of time was come God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under law,

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:4:11 @ I am alarmed about you for fear lest I may have bestowed labor on you to no purpose.

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:4:19 @ O my little children, of whom I travail again in birth until Christ be formed within you!

mnt@Galatians:4:20 @ How I wish I could be with you now, that I might change my tone; for I am perplexed about 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:4:24 @ Now all this is an allegory, for these women are the two covenants; one from Mount Sinai, which is Hagar bearing children into bondage

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:4:27 @ 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:4:31 @ So, brothers, we are the children of no slave woman, but of free woman. For freedom did not Christ set us free;

mnt@Galatians:5:5 @ But we are not, for we through the Spirit are eagerly waiting by faith for a hope of righteousness (a hope well founded);

mnt@Galatians:5:10 @ As for me, I am fully trusting you in the Lord that you will be no otherwise minded; but he who is trying to unsettle you will have to bear his punishment, whoever he may be.

mnt@Galatians:5:13 @ For you, brothers, were called for freedom; only do not make your freedom an excuse for self-indulgence, but in love enslave yourselves to one another.

mnt@Galatians:5:14 @ For the whole Law has been fulfilled in this one precept, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

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:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are manifest; such, for instance, as fornication, impurity, indecency,

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:6:5 @ for every one must carry his own pack load.

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:6:12 @ Those who are trying to compel you to be circumcised are such as wish to make a fair show in the flesh, only that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

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:6:15 @ For in Jesus Christ neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

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

mnt@Ephesians:1:5 @ For in his love he predestined us (such was the good pleasure of his will) to adoption for himself as sons through Jesus Christ,

mnt@Ephesians:1:7 @ It is in him we have deliverance, the forgiveness of our trespasses, through his blood;

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:1:12 @ that we who first hoped in Christ should be for the praise of his glory.

mnt@Ephesians:1:14 @ who for the praise of his glory is the pledge of our common heritage, unto the complete redemption of his purchased property.

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:1:16 @ do not cease to praise God for you, whenever I mention you in my prayers.

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:2:14 @ 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:2:19 @ 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:2:22 @ and in him you, too, are continuously built together for a dwelling- place of God through his Spirit.

mnt@Ephesians:3:1 @ For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles -

mnt@Ephesians:3:2 @ for surely you have heard of the stewardship of the grace of God entrusted to me for you?

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:3:14 @ For this cause I bend my knees before the Father,

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

mnt@Ephesians:4:12 @ in order to equip the saints for the work of serving, for the building up of the Body of Christ -

mnt@Ephesians:4:19 @ These being past feeling have given themselves over to sensuality, in order to practise every form of impurity with greedy zest.

mnt@Ephesians:4:22 @ You have learned to lay aside, with your former manner of living, the old self who was on his way to ruin, as he followed the desires which deceive;

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:4:29 @ 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:4:32 @ 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:5:5 @ 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:5:6 @ Let no man deceive you with empty arguments, for it is these vices that bring down the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience;

mnt@Ephesians:5:7 @ therefore do not become sharers with them.

mnt@Ephesians:5:8 @ For you were once darkness, but are now in the Lord.

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:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of the things that are done by such men in secret;

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:5:16 @ Buy up opportunity, for the times are evil.

mnt@Ephesians:5:17 @ For this reason do not be thoughtless, but learn to know what the Lords will is.

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:5:21 @ Submit yourselves one to another out of reverence for Christ.

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

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:5:30 @ for we are members of his body.

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:5:33 @ 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:6:1 @ Children, obey your parents in the Lord; for this is right.

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:6:12 @ 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:6:18 @ 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:6:22 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know about us, and that he may cheer your hearts.

mnt@Philippians:1:3 @ Upon every remembrance of you I am ever thanking my God for you all;

mnt@Philippians:1:4 @ in every petition of mine in your behalf I am offering my prayer with joy for your fellowship in forwarding the gospel,

mnt@Philippians:1:8 @ God is my witness how I yearn for you all in the tenderness of Christ Jesus.

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

mnt@Philippians:1:13 @ 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:1:16 @ but the former preach Christ out of rivalry, not sincerely, because they think they are adding bitterness to my bonds.

mnt@Philippians:1:17 @ These latter out of their love, because they know that I am set here for the defense of the gospel;

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

mnt@Philippians:1:24 @ but for your sakes it is more necessary that I should still live on in the body.

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:1:29 @ For it has been granted you in Christs behalf, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake,

mnt@Philippians:2:1 @ If then there is any comfort in Christ, if there is any persuasive power in love, if there is any companionship of the Spirit, if there is any tenderness or pity,

mnt@Philippians:2:4 @ Let each have an eye not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.

mnt@Philippians:2:6 @ who, though from the beginning he had the nature of God, did not reckon equality with God something to be forcibly retained,

mnt@Philippians:2:7 @ but emptied himself of his glory by taking the form of a slave, when he was born in the likeness of men.

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

mnt@Philippians:2:16 @ holding out a message of life. Thus it will be my boast at the day of Christ that I have not run in vain, or toiled for nothing.

mnt@Philippians:2:19 @ Now I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you before long, so that I may be of good comfort when I learn the news concerning you.

mnt@Philippians:2:20 @ For I have no other like him with a genuine concern for your welfare,

mnt@Philippians:2:21 @ for they are all seeking their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.

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

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:2:30 @ for it was through the work of the Lord that he came near to death; for he hazarded his very life to supply what was lacking in the help you sent me.

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:3:7 @ But what was once gain to me, that I have counted loss for Christ.

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:3:12 @ I do not say that I have already won, or am already perfect, but I am passing on to lay hold on the prize for which also Christ has laid hold of me.

mnt@Philippians:3:13 @ Brothers, I do not regard myself to have yet laid hold of it; but this one thing I do, forgetting what is behind me, but straining every nerve toward that which lies ahead,

mnt@Philippians:3:14 @ I am ever pressing on toward the goal, for the prize of Gods heavenward call in Christ Jesus.

mnt@Philippians:3:15 @ Let us all then, who are mature Christians, strive for this! God will make this clear to any of you who are striving for other goals;

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: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:4:3 @ 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:4:10 @ Moreover, I greatly rejoiced in the Lord that now once more your care for me blossomed afresh; though indeed you did take thought in this matter, but you lacked the opportunity of expression.

mnt@Philippians:4:11 @ Not that I speak as if I were in want, for at least have learned how to be content, whatever happens.

mnt@Philippians:4:13 @ I am strong for everything in Him who gives me strength.

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

mnt@Philippians:4:17 @ It is not your gifts I am eager for, but I am eager for the abundant profit that accrues to your divine account.

mnt@Philippians:4:18 @ But I give you a receipt in full for all things abound. I am amply supplied with what you sent by Epaphroditus - an odor of sweet fragrance, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God.

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

mnt@Colossians:1:3 @ Whenever I pray for you I am continually thanking God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ

mnt@Colossians:1:5 @ because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Long ago you heard of this hope in the message which came to you of the truth of the gospel.

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:1:11 @ 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:1:14 @ in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of our sins.

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:1:19 @ For in him all the divine fulness chose to dwell;

mnt@Colossians:1:25 @ It is of this I was made a minister, according to the stewardship entrusted to me by God for you, fully to declare Gods message;

mnt@Colossians:1:29 @ For that end I am ever toiling, wrestling with all that energy of his which is mightily at work within me.

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:2:5 @ 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:2:9 @ For it is in Christ that all the fullness of deity dwells bodily,

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:2:16 @ Therefore do not permit any one to sit in judgment on you in regard to what you may eat or drink, or in regard to feast-days or new moons or sabbaths.

mnt@Colossians:2:19 @ instead of keeping connection with the Head from the whole body draws nourishment for all its needs by the joints which bind it; and is knit together, and grows with a divine growth.

mnt@Colossians:2:23 @ For these precepts, although they have a show of wisdom with their self-imposed devotions and fastings and bodily austerities, are of no real value against the indulgence of the carnal appetites.

mnt@Colossians:3:3 @ for you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

mnt@Colossians:3:5 @ So slay your baser inclinations. fornication, impurity, appetite, unnatural desires, and the greed which is idolatry.

mnt@Colossians:3:12 @ Therefore, as Gods chosen people, consecrated and beloved, clothe yourselves with tenderness of heart, kindness, humility, gentleness, good temper;

mnt@Colossians:3:13 @ bearing with one another and forgiving each other, if any one has a grievance against another. Just as Christ the Lord forgave you, so must you forgive.

mnt@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands, as is fitting for Christians.

mnt@Colossians:3:20 @ Children, obey your parents in everything, for this is well pleasing in Christians.

mnt@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey in all things your earthly masters, not with eye- service, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of purpose, out of reverence for your Lord.

mnt@Colossians:3:23 @ And whatever you do, do it heartily as for the Lord, and not for men.

mnt@Colossians:3:24 @ You know that from the Lord you will receive reward of the inheritance, for you are the Lord Christs slaves.

mnt@Colossians:3:25 @ For he who wrongs another will be paid back for his wrong-doing, and there will be no favoritism.

mnt@Colossians:4:3 @ Keep on praying for me, too, that God may open for me a door of utterance to speak the secret truth of Christ, for which I am a prisoner.

mnt@Colossians:4:8 @ I have sent him with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, one of your own number, for this very purpose, to let you know how I am, and to cheer your hearts.

mnt@Colossians:4:9 @ They will inform you of all that goes on here.

mnt@Colossians:4:11 @ These are my only fellow workers for the kingdom of God, belonging to the circumcision, who have been any comfort to me.

mnt@Colossians:4:12 @ Epaphras, one of yourselves, salutes you, a slave of Christ who is always agonizing for you in his prayers, that you may stand firm, mature, and fully assured in all the will of God.

mnt@Colossians:4:13 @ For I can testify to his deep interest in you and in those in Laodicea and Hierapolis.

mnt@Colossians:4:18 @ I, Paul, add this farewell in my own handwriting. Do not forget these chains of mine. Grace be with you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ I am continually thanking God for all, always making mention of you in my prayers,

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ For I know, O brothers, beloved of God, that he has chosen you;

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:1:8 @ 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:1:10 @ and to await for the coming of his Son from the heavens, the Son whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, our Deliverer from the wrath to come.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brothers, that my visit to you did not fail of its purpose;

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:2:3 @ For my preaching was not grounded on a delusion, or on impure motives, on in deceit.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For as you well know, I never resorted to flattery, nor to any pretext for enriching myself. God is my witness!

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ For this reason also I am giving continual thanks to God, because when you heard from me the spoken word of God, you received it not as the word of men, but as the word of God (which in truth it is), who himself is effectually at work in you believe.

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:2:16 @ They forbid me to speak to the Gentiles with a view to their salvation. They continue always to fill up the measure of their sins; but the wrath of God is come upon them to the full!

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But I, my brothers, although torn from you for a short season (in presence, not in heart), made eager efforts to behold you face to face with strong longing.

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:3:3 @ So that no one should be shaken by these troubles-for you know well that we are appointed to troubles.

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:3:7 @ 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:3:9 @ For what thanksgiving can I render again to God in your behalf, in return for all the joy which you cause me in the presence of my God?

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:4:2 @ For you know what charges I laid upon you through the Lord Jesus.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is Gods will, even your sanctification; that you should abstain from sexual vice.

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:4:7 @ For God has not called us for uncleanness, but in holiness.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ It is not needed that I should write to you about brotherly love; for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another.

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:4:15 @ For this I tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are living, who survive unto the coming of the Lord, will in no wise precede those 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:4:18 @ So comfort one another with these words.

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:5:7 @ 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:5:9 @ For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to win salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ He died for us, in order that whether we are keeping vigil in life or sleeping in death we may ever be living together with him.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ Esteem them very highly in love for their works sake. Live in peace among yourselves.

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:5:18 @ Give thanks in every circumstance, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:22 @ Hold aloof from every form of evil.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:25 @ Brothers, pray for me.

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:1:6 @ For truly Gods justice must render back trouble to those who are troubling you,

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: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:2:7 @ 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:2:10 @ 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:2:11 @ For this reason God is sending on them an energy of delusion, that they should put faith in a falsehood;

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:2:14 @ For this he called you through my gospel, so that you might obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

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:3:7 @ For you know well how you must imitate me. For I did not lead an idle or disorderly life among you;

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ Not that I have no right to such support; it was simply to give you an example for you to imitate.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For indeed when I was with you, I used to charge you, "If any man will not work, he shall not eat."

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:1:9 @ 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:1:13 @ 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:1:16 @ 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:1:18 @ This charge then, I am laying upon you, Timothy, my son, according to the predictions formerly made concerning you. Fight the good fight in the spirit of these predictions,

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:2:5 @ 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:2:13 @ It was Adam who was first formed, then Eve.

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

mnt@1Timothy:3:5 @ For if a man does not know how to rule his own household, how shall he take charge of a church of God?

mnt@1Timothy:3:13 @ For those who have well discharged the duties of a deacon are gaining an honorable position for themselves, as well as much fearless confidence in the faith of Christ Jesus.

mnt@1Timothy:3:14 @ Although I am hoping to come to you before long,

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@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise you on account of your youth, but become an example for the faithful in word, in life, in love, in faith, in purity.

mnt@1Timothy:4:16 @ Give heed to yourself and to your teaching. Persevere in these things, for by doing this you will save both yourself and your hearers.

mnt@1Timothy:5:4 @ but if any widow has children or grandchildren, let these learn to show their piety first toward their own household, and to make some return to their parents, for that is pleasing in Gods sight.

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:1:13 @ 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:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth for service in behalf of those who are about to inherit salvation?

mnt@Hebrews:2:1 @ For this reason we must pay the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, for fear we should drift away.

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:2:6 @ But some one, somewhere, testified, saying. What is Man, that thou art mindful of him? Or any man, that thou carest for him?

mnt@Hebrews:2:8 @ Thou hast put all things under his feet. For this putting all things under man means leaving nothing not subject to him. But we do not yet see all things subject to him.

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:2:14 @ 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:2:16 @ 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:2:18 @ For inasmuch as he himself has suffered, being tempted, he is also able instantly to succor those who are tempted, he is also able instantly to succor those who are tempted.

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:3:2 @ How faithful he was to the God who appointed him! For while Moses also was faithful in all Gods house,

mnt@Hebrews:3:4 @ For every house has its builder; but he who built the universe is God.

mnt@Hebrews:3:7 @ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says. If you hear Gods voice today,

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:3:14 @ For we are become comrades of the Christ, if we hold our first title deed firm until the very end.

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:4:2 @ For the Good News is come to us just as it did to them. But the message they heard was of no benefit to them, because they did not share the faith of those who gave heed to 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:4:6 @ 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:4:8 @ For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.

mnt@Hebrews:4:9 @ So there remains a Sabbath Rest for the people of God.

mnt@Hebrews:4:10 @ For whoever has entered into his rest has rested from his works, just as God did from his.

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:4:15 @ For we have not a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in all points like as we are, yet without sin.

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:5:3 @ and because of this weakness he is bound to offer sin-offerings not only for the people, but also for himself.

mnt@Hebrews:5:4 @ Again no one takes this honorable office for himself, but he is called by God, just as Aaron was.

mnt@Hebrews:5:6 @ and again, Thou art a priest forever, after the order of Melchisedek.

mnt@Hebrews:5:13 @ For every one who feeds on milk is inexperienced in the word of righteousness. He is still an infant.

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:6:4 @ For in the case of those who have been once for all enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift,

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:6:10 @ 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:6:13 @ For when God make the promise to Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he swore by himself, saying.

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:6:20 @ whither Jesus himself is entered as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a priest forever, after the order of Melchisedek.

mnt@Hebrews:7:10 @ for Levi was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedek met 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:7:12 @ For when the priesthood changes, of necessity the law also changes.

mnt@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, a tribe of which Moses said nothing concerning the priesthood.

mnt@Hebrews:7:17 @ For the words are in evidence, Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchisedek.

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:7:24 @ but he, because of his abiding forever, holds his priesthood inviolable.

mnt@Hebrews:7:25 @ Hence also he is able to continue saving to the uttermost those who are ever drawing near to God through him, seeing that he is ever living to intercede for them.

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:7:27 @ one who has no need, like the high priests, to offer up daily sacrifices, first for his own sins, then for those of the people. For his sacrifice was made once for all, when he offered up himself.

mnt@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the Law appoints human beings to be high priests, men with all their weakness; but the word of the oath, which was later than the Law, appoints a Son, perfected forevermore.

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:8:7 @ For if the first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need for a second.

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: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:9:6 @ Such then were the arrangements. Into the outer tent the priests enter continually in the performance of their duties;

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:9:9 @ 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:9:12 @ 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:9:16 @ For where there is a testament, there must also be brought forward in evidence the death of the testator.

mnt@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a testament is only of force in case of the dead, being never valid so long as the testator lives.

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:9:24 @ 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:9:25 @ Nor did he enter to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest entered into the sanctuary, year after year, with blood that was not his own; (for in that case he would have needed to suffer repeatedly, ever since the foundation of the world;)but now, once for all, at the end of the ages, he has appeared to abolish sin, but the offering of himself.

mnt@Hebrews:9:28 @ so also the Christ, after being once for all offered to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, without sin, to those who wait for him for salvation.

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:10:4 @ 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:10:8 @ 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:10:10 @ 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:10:13 @ henceforth waiting until his enemies be put as the footstool of his feet.

mnt@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one single offering he has perfected forever those whom he is sanctifying.

mnt@Hebrews:10:18 @ But when these have been remitted, there is no more any offering for sin.

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:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope, unwavering (for He is faithful who promised);

mnt@Hebrews:10:25 @ not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the custom of some, but exhorting one another; all the more as you behold the Day drawing near.

mnt@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we sin wilfully, after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains any other sacrifice for sins,

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:10:32 @ But ever call to mind the former days, in which, after having been enlightened, you endured a great conflict of sufferings;

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:10:35 @ Now do not fling away your bold confidence, for it has a great recompense of reward.

mnt@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you need stedfastness, so that after having done the will of God, you may receive the promise,

mnt@Hebrews:10:37 @ For yet a very, very little while, and then The Coming One will have come, without delay.

mnt@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is the title-deed of things hoped for; the putting to the proof of things not seen.

mnt@Hebrews:11:2 @ For by it men of old times had witness borne to them.

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:11:10 @ For he continually looked for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

mnt@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive seed, although she was past the age for child-bearing, because she counted Him faithful who had promised;

mnt@Hebrews:11:14 @ For those who say such things make it plain that they are seeking a Fatherland.

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:11:19 @ For he accounted God able even to raise from the dead, from whence, figuratively speaking, he did indeed receive him back again.

mnt@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to share ill-treatment with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.

mnt@Hebrews:11:26 @ He accounted the obloquy of Christ to be greater than the treasures of Egypt; for he fixed his eyes on the reward.

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:11:40 @ since it was for us that God had in store some better thing, so that apart from us they should not be perfected.

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:12:5 @ and have you forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as sons? My son, do not despise the training of the Lord, Nor faint when he corrects you;

mnt@Hebrews:12:6 @ For it is those whom he loves that he disciplines, And he scourges every son whom he acknowledges.

mnt@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you are enduring these sufferings. God is dealing with you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

mnt@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they only disciplined us for a few days, as seemed good to them; but he does it for our profit, that we may share his holiness.

mnt@Hebrews:12:11 @ Now no discipline seems for the present to be joyous, but grievous; but afterward it yields the peaceable fruits of righteousness to those who have been trained under it.

mnt@Hebrews:12:12 @ Wherefore lift up your listless hands, strengthen your feeble knees;

mnt@Hebrews:12:13 @ make straight path for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint, but rather be healed.

mnt@Hebrews:12:16 @ Take care lest there be any fornicator or scorner like Esau among you, who for one meal sold his birthright.

mnt@Hebrews:12:17 @ For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; he found no room for repentance, though he sought it earnestly, with tears.

mnt@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you are not come to a palpable and enkindled fire,

mnt@Hebrews:12:20 @ For they could not endure that which was enjoined, Even if a wild beast touches the mountain it shall be stoned to death;

mnt@Hebrews:12:25 @ See that you do not refuse him who is speaking. For if they did not escape punishment when they refused to listen to their instructor on earth, much less shall we escape if we turn away from him who is teaching us from heaven;

mnt@Hebrews:12:26 @ whose voice then shook the earth, but now he has promised, saying, Once again, once for all, I make not only earth, but heaven also to tremble.

mnt@Hebrews:12:28 @ Wherefore since we are receiving a kingdom which is unshakable, let us give thanks, and so offer acceptable worship to God, with holy awe and fear,

mnt@Hebrews:12:29 @ FOR INDEED OUR GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE.

mnt@Hebrews:13:2 @ Do not neglect to show hospitality; for by it some have even entertained angels unawares.

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:13:5 @ Let your life be untainted by love of money; be content with such things as you have; for God himself has said, I will never leave thee; I will never forsake thee.

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:13:11 @ For the bodies of the animals whose blood is carried by the High Priest into the Holy Place are burned outside the camp,

mnt@Hebrews:13:13 @ Let us then go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

mnt@Hebrews:13:14 @ For we have not here an abiding city, but we are earnestly seeking the city that is to be.

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:13:19 @ I the more earnestly ask for your prayers, that I may be the more speedily restored to you.

mnt@Hebrews:13:21 @ equip you in every good deed for the doing of his will, doing in you what is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory unto the ages of the ages! Amen!

mnt@Hebrews:13:22 @ But I entreat you, brothers, bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.

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:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love him.

mnt@James:1:13 @ When he is being tempted, let no one say, "It is God who tempts me," for God cannot be tempted with evil, nor does he tempt any man.

mnt@James:1:15 @ Then lust conceives and gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is mature, brings forth death.

mnt@James:1:20 @ for a mans anger does not further the righteous purpose of God.

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:1:27 @ and undefiled before our God and Father, to look after orphans and widows in their affliction, and ever to keep himself unspotted from the world.

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:2:11 @ For he who said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not Kill. Now if you do not commit adultery, but if you do kill, you have transgressed the Law.

mnt@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to the man who has showed no mercy. but mercy glories in the face of judgment.

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:2:25 @ 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:3:2 @ For in many respects we often stumble. If any man never stumbles in speech, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well.

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:3:7 @ 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:3:10 @ 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:3:16 @ For wherever jealousy and faction exist, there is confusion and every evil deed.

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:4:10 @ Humble yourselves before the Lord, And he will raise you up.

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:5:1 @ Go to now, you rich men! Weep aloud, howl for the miseries which are about to come upon you!

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:5:5 @ You have lived luxuriously on earth, you have taken your pleasure, you have fattened your hearts for a day of slaughter.

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:5:14 @ 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:1:2 @ according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in the sanctification of the spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ; Grace and peace be multiplied to you.

mnt@1Peter:1:4 @ and into an inheritance imperishable and undefiled and fadeless, which has been kept in heaven for you

mnt@1Peter:1:5 @ who, through faith, are continuously guarded by the power of God for a salvation, ready to be revealed in the last days.

mnt@1Peter:1:6 @ Exult in this, though now for a brief moment, if need be, you have suffered many hardships.

mnt@1Peter:1:10 @ Concerning this salvation the Prophets who prophesied regarding the grace intended for you, diligently sought and searched.

mnt@1Peter:1:11 @ They were searching to know to what time, or to what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them kept pointing, when he ever testified beforehand concerning the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow.

mnt@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that it was not for themselves, but for you, that they were ministering the truths which have now been announced to you, by those who preached the gospel to you, through the help of the Holy Spirit sent forth from heaven - truths into which angels long to look.

mnt@1Peter:1:14 @ Like obedient children, do not fashion yourselves according to the former passions of your days of ignorance,

mnt@1Peter:1:18 @ For you well know that not with perishable things, with silver or gold, were you redeemed from the emptiness of your manner of life, received by tradition from your ancestors;

mnt@1Peter:1:20 @ He was indeed foreknown before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the end of the times for your sake.

mnt@1Peter:1:22 @ Now that by obedience to the truth you have purified your lives for a brotherly love without hypocrisy, you must love one another from your hearts, fervently.

mnt@1Peter:1:23 @ For you have been born anew, not of perishable, but of imperishable seed, by the living, lasting word of God.

mnt@1Peter:1:24 @ For, All flesh is grass And all its glory like the flower of the grass. The grass fades, The flower falls,

mnt@1Peter:1:25 @ But the word of the Lord abides forever. And this is the word of the gospel which has been told to you.

mnt@1Peter:2:1 @ Therefore put away all malice, all deceit, insincerity, jealousy, and slander of every sort.

mnt@1Peter:2:2 @ Like new-born babes long for the pure spiritual milk to make you grow up into salvation;

mnt@1Peter:2:6 @ For, as Scripture says. Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner-stone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him shall never be put to shame.

mnt@1Peter:2:7 @ For you, then, that believe, is the preciousness; but for those who do not believe, A stone which the builders rejected, The same has become the head stone of the corner,

mnt@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people, that you may show forth the virtues of Him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light -

mnt@1Peter:2:12 @ Let your manner of life before the Gentiles be honest; so that, although they are now slandering you as evil-doers, they may, by beholding your noble conduct, come to glorify God, in the day of visitation.

mnt@1Peter:2:13 @ Submit yourselves, for the Lords sake, to every human authority; whether it be to the Emperor as supreme ruler,

mnt@1Peter:2:14 @ or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers and for the encouragement of well-doers.

mnt@1Peter:2:15 @ For it is the will of God that by well-doing you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men.

mnt@1Peter:2:16 @ Live like free men; and yet do not make your freedom a cloak for misconduct, but be the slaves of God.

mnt@1Peter:2:19 @ For it is an acceptable thing to God, if from a sense of duty to him, a man endures a wrong, even suffering unjustly.

mnt@1Peter:2:20 @ For what credit is it if, when you are struck for a fault, you take it patiently? But if when you are doing well and suffer for it, you always take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

mnt@1Peter:2:21 @ For this is your calling; because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you should follow in his footsteps;

mnt@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were straying like lost sheep, but you are now returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.

mnt@1Peter:3:5 @ For in this way in the olden time the holy women also, who put their trust in God, used to adorn themselves. They were ever in submission to their own husbands;

mnt@1Peter:3:6 @ thus, for example, Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are daughters of Sarah, if you do what is right, and permit nothing to make you afraid.

mnt@1Peter:3:9 @ not paying back evil for evil or abuse for abuse, but on the contrary giving a blessing. Because for this you have been called - to inherit a blessing.

mnt@1Peter:3:12 @ For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, And his ears are open to their cry; But the face of the Lord is set against evil-doers.

mnt@1Peter:3:13 @ Yet who will harm you if you become zealous for the good?

mnt@1Peter:3:15 @ But consecrate Christ in your hearts, as Lord. Be always in readiness to make and answer to any one who asks you a reason for the hope that is within you, yet with gentleness and reverence.

mnt@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is better that you suffer for doing right, if such be Gods will, than for doing wrong;

mnt@1Peter:3:18 @ because Christ also once for all suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but make alive in spirit.

mnt@1Peter:3:21 @ Baptism, the counterpart of that, now saves you (not the washing off of the filth of the flesh, but the prayer for a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Peter:4:3 @ For the time past of life may suffice us to have worked the will of the Gentiles, when we spent our life in lasciviousness, lusts, hard drinking, revelry, banqueting, and abominable idol worship.

mnt@1Peter:4:6 @ The gospel was preached for this cause to those who were dead also, that they might be judged according to men in flesh, but live according to God in spirit.

mnt@1Peter:4:8 @ Above everything have fervent love to one another; for love veils a multitude of sins.

mnt@1Peter:4:10 @ Whatever the gifts which each has received, use them for one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

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: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:5:7 @ Cast all your care upon him, for he ever cares for you.

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@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:1:5 @ For this very reason do your best to add to your faith manliness, and to manliness knowledge,

mnt@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these virtues are yours in abounding measure, they render you not idle nor unfruitful, until you come into the full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@2Peter:1:9 @ For the man who lacks these virtues is blind, short-sighted, forgetful of his cleansing from his old sins.

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:1:14 @ since I know that the time for me to strike tent comes swiftly on, even as our Lord Jesus Christ pointed out to me.

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:1:21 @ For no prophecy was ever brought by the will of man; but moved by the Holy Spirit, men spoke for God.

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:2:8 @ (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:2:11 @ even where angels, though surpassing them in strength and might, do not bring a railing judgment against them before the Lord.

mnt@2Peter:2:15 @ 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:2:17 @ Such men are like waterless springs, or mists storm-driven; for them the blackness of darkness has been reserved.

mnt@2Peter:2:18 @ For speaking great swelling words of vanity, they entangle, by their lasciviousness, in the lusts of the flesh, those who are just about to escape from the men that live in misconduct.

mnt@2Peter:2:19 @ They promise them liberty, while they themselves are slaves of rottenness! (For indeed a man is the slave of anything which masters him.)

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: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:3:7 @ 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:3:12 @ 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:3:17 @ 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@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:2:1 @ My children, I am writing this to you that you may not continue to sin; but if any one sin, we ever have a Comforter before the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous.

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:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because you sins are forgiven you for his names sake.

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:2:19 @ They came forth from us, but they did not belong to us. If they had belonged to us they would certainly have remained with us, but they went out that they might be manifest that they all are not of us.

mnt@1John:2:23 @ Whoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father; but he who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you.

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:3:2 @ We are Gods children now, beloved; what we shall be has never yet been made manifest. But we know that when he is manifested we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is.

mnt@1John:3:8 @ He who is committing sin is of the devil, because from the beginning of the devil is sinning. It was for this cause that the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

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:3:11 @ For this is the message that you have listened to from the beginning, "WE ARE TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER."

mnt@1John:3:16 @ By this we learn to know love, because he laid down his life for us; so we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.

mnt@1John:4:1 @ Do not believe every spirit, beloved, but test the spirits to see whether they are of God; for many false prophets are gone out into 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:4:8 @ He who does not love, does not know God; for God is love.

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:4:16 @ 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: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:5:7 @ For there are three who bear testimony, the Spirit, and the water,

mnt@1John:5:9 @ If we accept mens testimony, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God, that he has borne testimony concerning his Son.

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@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:1:7 @ 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:1:11 @ For the man who greets him shares in his wicked work.

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:1:6 @ They have borne testimony to your love before the church. You will do well to speed them on their way worthily of God;

mnt@3John:1:7 @ since for the sake of the Name they have started out, taking nothing from the Gentiles.

mnt@3John:1:8 @ Hence we ought to support such, so that we may become fellow workers for the truth.

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@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:1:3 @ Beloved, although I was making all haste to write to you in regard to our common salvation, I am compelled to write you an appeal to defend the faith once for all committed to the saints.

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:1:6 @ while the angels who did not keep their first domain but left their proper abode, are held by him in blank darkness, in everlasting chains, in preparation for the judgment of the Great Day.

mnt@Jude:1:9 @ But Michael, the Archangel, when in contending with the devil, he was disputing about the body of Moses, did not dare to pronounce sentence for blasphemy, but said, "The Lord rebuke you."

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.

mnt@Jude:1:13 @ wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.

mnt@Jude:1:16 @ For these are murmurers, always complaining. They always go where their passions lead, and their mouth speaks great swelling words, while they pay court to men for the sake of the advantage they can get.

mnt@Jude:1:17 @ But as for you, dearly beloved, remember the words spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mnt@Jude:1:21 @ must keep yourselves in the love of God, while waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, which ends in life eternal.

mnt@Jude:1:25 @ to the only God, our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be ascribed glory, majesty, might, and authority, as it was before time began, is now, and ever shall be to all the ages. Amen.
