Romans:2:1 @ You are therefore without excuse, O man, whoever you are who sit in judgement upon others. For when you pass judgement on your fellow man, you condemn yourself; for you who sit in judgement upon others are guilty of the same misdeeds;
wmth@Romans:2:10 @ whereas glory, honour and peace will be given to every one who does what is good and right–to the Jew first and then to the Gentile.
wmth@Romans:3:10 @ Thus it stands written, »There is not one righteous man.
wmth@Romans:3:11 @ There is not one who is really wise, nor one who is a diligent seeker after God.
wmth@Romans:3:12 @ All have turned aside from the right path; they have every one of them become corrupt. There is no one who does what is right–no, not so much as one.«
wmth@Romans:3:18 @ »There is no fear of God before their eyes.«
wmth@Romans:3:27 @ Where then is there room for your boasting? It is for ever shut out. On what principle? On the ground of merit? No, but on the ground of faith.
wmth@Romans:4:5 @ whereas in the case of a man who pleads no actions of his own, but simply believes in Him who declares the ungodly free from guilt, his faith is placed to his credit as righteousness.
wmth@Romans:4:15 @ For the Law inflicts punishment; but where no Law exists, there can be no violation of Law.
wmth@Romans:5:7 @ Why, it is scarcely conceivable that any one would die for a simply just man, although for a good and lovable man perhaps some one, here and there, will have the courage even to lay down his life.
wmth@Romans:5:9 @ If therefore we have now been pronounced free from guilt through His blood, much more shall we be delivered from God's anger through Him.
wmth@Romans:5:16 @ And it is not with the gift as it was with the results of one individual's sin; for the judgement which one individual provoked resulted in condemnation, whereas the free gift after a multitude of transgressions results in acquittal.
wmth@Romans:5:20 @ Now Law was brought in later on, so that transgression might increase. But where sin increased, grace has overflowed;
wmth@Romans:6:12 @ Let not Sin therefore reign as king in your mortal bodies, causing you to be in subjection to their cravings;
wmth@Romans:6:15 @ Are we therefore to sin because we are no longer under the authority of Law, but under grace? No, indeed!
wmth@Romans:7:21 @ I find therefore the law of my nature to be that when I desire to do what is right, evil is lying in ambush for me.
wmth@Romans:7:23 @ but I discover within me a different Law at war with the Law of my understanding, and leading me captive to the Law which is everywhere at work in my body–the Law of sin.
wmth@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus;
wmth@Romans:8:9 @ You, however, are not devoted to earthly, but to spiritual things, if the Spirit of God is really dwelling in you; whereas if any man has not the Spirit of Christ, such a one does not belong to Him.
wmth@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brethren, it is not to our lower natures that we are under obligation that we should live by their rule.
wmth@Romans:8:21 @ Yet there was always the hope that at last the Creation itself would also be set free from the thraldom of decay so as to enjoy the liberty that will attend the glory of the children of God.
wmth@Romans:8:31 @ What then shall we say to this? If God is on our side, who is there to appear against us?
wmth@Romans:8:34 @ Who is there to condemn them? Christ Jesus died, or rather has risen to life again. He is also at the right hand of God, and is interceding for us.
wmth@Romans:9:10 @ Nor is that all: later on there was Rebecca too. She was soon to bear two children to her husband, our forefather Isaac–
wmth@Romans:9:14 @ What then are we to infer? That there is injustice in God?
wmth@Romans:9:18 @ This is a proof that wherever He chooses He shows mercy, and wherever he chooses He hardens the heart.
wmth@Romans:11:5 @ In the same way also at the present time there has come to be a remnant whom God in His grace has selected.
wmth@Romans:11:22 @ Notice therefore God's kindness and God's severity. On those who have fallen His severity has descended, but upon you His kindness has come, provided that you do not cease to respond to that kindness. Otherwise you will be cut off also.
wmth@Romans:11:25 @ For there is a truth, brethren, not revealed hitherto, of which I do not wish to leave you in ignorance, for fear you should attribute superior wisdom to yourselves–the truth, I mean, that partial blindness has fallen upon Israel until the great mass of the Gentiles have come in;
wmth@Romans:11:31 @ so now they also have been disobedient at a time when you are receiving mercy; so that to them too there may now be mercy.
wmth@Romans:12:1 @ I plead with you therefore, brethren, by the compassionsof God, to present all your faculties to Him as a living and holy sacrifice acceptable to Him. This with you will be an act of reasonable worship.
wmth@Romans:12:4 @ For just as there are in the one human body many parts, and these parts have not all the same function;
wmth@Romans:12:20 @ On the contrary, therefore,
wmth@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore the man who rebels against his ruler is resisting God's will; and those who thus resist will bring punishment upon themselves.
wmth@Romans:13:5 @ We must obey therefore, not only in order to escape punishment, but also for conscience' sake.
wmth@Romans:13:6 @ Why, this is really the reason you pay taxes; for tax-gatherers are ministers of God, devoting their energies to this very work.
wmth@Romans:13:10 @ Love avoids doing any wrong to one's fellow man, and is therefore complete obedience to Law.
wmth@Romans:13:12 @ The night is far advanced, and day is about to dawn. We must therefore lay aside the deeds of darkness, and clothe ourselves with the armour of Light.
wmth@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us no longer judge one another; but, instead of that, you should come to this judgement–that we must not put a stumbling-block in our brother's path, nor anything to trip him up.
wmth@Romans:14:16 @ Therefore do not let the boon which is yours in common be exposed to reproach.
wmth@Romans:14:19 @ Therefore let us aim at whatever makes for peace and mutual upbuilding of character.
wmth@Romans:15:7 @ Habitually therefore give one another a friendly reception, just as Christ also has received you, and thus promote the glory of God.
wmth@Romans:15:17 @ I can therefore glory in Christ Jesus concerning the work for God in which I am engaged.
wmth@Romans:15:20 @ making it my ambition, however, not to tell the Good News where Christ's name was already known, for fear I should be building on another man's foundation.
wmth@Romans:15:23 @ But now, as there is no more unoccupied ground in this part of the world, and I have for years past been eager to pay you a visit,
wmth@Romans:15:28 @ So after discharging this duty, and making sure that these kind gifts reach those for whom they are intended, I shall start for Spain, passing through Rome on my way there;
wmth@Romans:15:31 @ asking that I may escape unhurt from those in Judaea who are disobedient, and that the service which I am going to Jerusalem to render may be well received by the Church there,
wmth@Romans:16:1 @ Herewith I introduce our sister Phoebe to you, who is a servant of the Church at Cenchreae,
wmth@Romans:16:19 @ Your fidelity to the truth is everywhere known. I rejoice over you, therefore, but I wish you to be wise as to what is good, and simple-minded as to what is evil.
wmth@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that there is no gift of God in which you consciously come short while patiently waiting for the reappearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
wmth@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I entreat you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to cultivate a spirit of harmony –all of you– and that there be no divisions among you, but rather a perfect union through your having one mind and one judgement.
wmth@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For I have been distinctly informed, my brethren, about you by Chloe's people, that there are dissensions among you.
wmth@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is the Christ in fragments? Is it Paul who was crucified on your behalf? Or were you baptized to be Paul's adherents?
wmth@1Corinthians:1:15 @ for fear people should say that you were baptized to be my adherents.
wmth@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where is your wise man? Where your expounder of the Law? Where your investigator of the questions of this present age? Has not God shown the world's wisdom to be utter foolishness?
wmth@1Corinthians:3:21 @ Therefore let no one boast about his human teachers.
wmth@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore form no premature judgements, but wait until the Lord returns. He will both bring to light the secrets of darkness and will openly disclose the motives that have been in people's hearts; and then the praise which each man deserves will come to him from God.
wmth@1Corinthians:4:16 @ I entreat you therefore to become like me.
wmth@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this reason I have sent Timothy to you. Spiritually he is my dearly-loved and faithful child. He will remind you of my habits as a Christian teacher–the manner in which I teach everywhere in every Church.
wmth@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and of a kind unheard of even among the Gentiles–a man has his father's wife!
wmth@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep our festival not with old yeast nor with the yeast of what is evil and mischievous, but with bread free from yeast–the bread of transparent sincerity and of truth.
wmth@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If therefore you have things belonging to this life which need to be decided, is it men who are absolutely nothing in the Church–is it whom you make your judges?
wmth@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to put you to shame. Has it come to this, that there does not exist among you a single wise man competent to decide between a man and his brother,
wmth@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that unrighteous men will not inherit God's Kingdom? Cherish no delusion here. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor any who are guilty of unnatural crime,
wmth@1Corinthians:6:20 @ And you are not your own, for you have been redeemed at infinite cost. Therefore glorify God in your bodies.
wmth@1Corinthians:7:2 @ But because there is so much fornication every man should have a wife of his own, and every woman should have a husband.
wmth@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Where each one stood when he was called, there, brethren, let him still stand–close to God.
wmth@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference too between a married and an unmarried woman. She who is unmarried concerns herself with the Lord's business –that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but the married woman concerns herself with the business of the world– how she shall please her husband.
wmth@1Corinthians:8:4 @ As to eating things which have been sacrificed to idols, we are fully aware that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but One.
wmth@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For if so-called gods do exist, either in Heaven or on earth –and in fact there are many such gods and many such lords–
wmth@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore if what I eat causes my brother to fall, never again to the end of my days will I touch any kind of animal food, for fear I should cause my brother to fall.
wmth@1Corinthians:10:14 @ Therefore, my dear friends, avoid all connection with the worship of idols.
wmth@1Corinthians:10:17 @ Since there is one loaf, we who are many are one body; we, all of us, share in that one loaf.
wmth@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But while giving you these instructions, there is one thing I cannot praise–your meeting together, with bad rather than good results.
wmth@1Corinthians:11:18 @ for, in the first place, when you meet as a Church, there are divisions among you. This is what I am told, and I believe that there is some truth in it.
wmth@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must of necessity be differences of opinion among you, in order that it may be plainly seen who are the men of sterling worth among you.
wmth@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When, however, you meet in one place, there is no eating the Supper of the Lord;
wmth@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Whoever, therefore, in an unworthy manner, eats the bread or drinks from the cup of the Lord sins against the body and blood of the Lord.
wmth@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Therefore, brethren, when you come together for this meal, wait for one another.
wmth@1Corinthians:12:2 @ You know that when you were heathens you went astray after dumb idols, wherever you happened to be led.
wmth@1Corinthians:12:4 @ Now there are various kinds of gifts, but there is one and the same Spirit;
wmth@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the nostrils be?
wmth@1Corinthians:12:19 @ If they were all one part, where would the body be?
wmth@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But, as a matter of fact, there are many parts and but one body.
wmth@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there might be no disunion in the body, but that all the members might entertain the same anxious care for one another's welfare.
wmth@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And by God's appointment there are in the Church–first Apostles, secondly Prophets, thirdly teachers. Then come miraculous powers, and then ability to cure diseases or render loving service, or powers of organization, or varieties of the gift of `tongues.'
wmth@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if there are languages, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be brought to an end.
wmth@1Corinthians:13:13 @ And so there remain Faith, Hope, Love–these three; and of these the greatest is Love.
wmth@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, we will suppose, a great number of languages in the world, and no creature is without a language.
wmth@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Therefore, seeing that you are ambitious for spiritual gifts, seek to excel in them so as to benefit the Church.
wmth@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore let a man who has the gift of tongues pray for the power of interpreting them.
wmth@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Accordingly if the whole Church has assembled and all are speaking in `tongues,' and there come in ungifted men, or unbelievers, will they not say that you are all mad?
wmth@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What then, brethren? Whenever you assemble, there is not one of you who is not ready either with a song of praise, a sermon, a revelation, a `tongue,' or an interpretation. Let everything be done with a view to the building up of faith and character.
wmth@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If there is speaking in an unknown tongue, only two or at the most three should speak, and they should do so one at a time, and one should interpret;
wmth@1Corinthians:14:28 @ or if there is no interpreter, let the man with the gift be silent in the Church, speaking to himself and to God.
wmth@1Corinthians:14:29 @ But if there are Prophets, let two or three speak and let the rest judge.
wmth@1Corinthians:14:30 @ And if anything is revealed to some one else who is seated there, let the first be silent.
wmth@1Corinthians:15:12 @ But if Christ is preached as having risen from the dead, how is it that some of you say that there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead?
wmth@1Corinthians:15:13 @ If there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead, then Christ Himself has not risen to life.
wmth@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same: there is human flesh, and flesh of cattle, of birds, and of fishes.
wmth@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are bodies which are celestial and there are bodies which are earthly, but the glory of the celestial ones is one thing, and that of the earthly ones is another.
wmth@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.
wmth@1Corinthians:15:44 @ an animal body is sown, a spiritual body is raised. As surely as there is an animal body, so there is also a spiritual body.
wmth@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my dear brethren, be firm, unmovable, busily occupied at all times in the Lord's work, knowing that your toil is not fruitless in the Lord.
wmth@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of every week let each of you put on one side and store up at his home whatever gain has been granted to him; so that whenever I come, there may then be no collections going on.
wmth@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let no one slight him, but all of you should help him forward in peace to join me; for I am waiting for him and others of the brethren.
wmth@2Corinthians:1:15 @ It was because I entertained this confidence that I intended to visit you before going elsewhere –so that you might receive a twofold proof of God's favour–
wmth@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I of all men give you pain, who then is there to gladden my heart, but the very persons to whom I give pain?
wmth@2Corinthians:2:8 @ I beg you therefore fully to reinstate him in your love.
wmth@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Now when I came into the Troad to spread there the Good News about the Christ, even though in the Lord's providence a door stood open before me,
wmth@2Corinthians:3:2 @ Our letter of recommendation is yourselves–a letter written on our hearts and everywhere known and read.
wmth@2Corinthians:3:12 @ Therefore, cherishing a hope like this, we speak without reserve, and we do not imitate Moses,
wmth@2Corinthians:3:17 @ Now by »the Lord« is meant the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, freedom is enjoyed.
wmth@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore, being engaged in this service and being mindful of the mercy which has been shown us, we are not cowards.
wmth@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always, wherever we go, carrying with us in our bodies the putting to death of Jesus, so that in our bodies it may also be clearly shown that Jesus lives.
wmth@2Corinthians:4:13 @ But possessing the same Spirit of faith as he who wrote, we also believe, and therefore we speak.
wmth@2Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore we are not cowards. Nay, even though our outward man is wasting away, yet our inward man is being renewed day by day.
wmth@2Corinthians:5:6 @ We have therefore a cheerful confidence. We know that while we are at home in the body we are banished from the Lord;
wmth@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, because we realize how greatly the Lord is to be feared, we are endeavouring to win men over, and God recognizes what our motives are, and I hope that you, in your hearts, recognize them too.
wmth@2Corinthians:5:16 @ Therefore for the future we know no one simply as a man. Even if we have known Christ as a man, yet now we do so no longer.
wmth@2Corinthians:5:20 @ On Christ's behalf therefore we come as ambassadors, God, as it were, making entreaty through our lips: we, on Christ's behalf, beseech men to be reconciled to God.
wmth@2Corinthians:6:12 @ There is no narrowness in our love to you: the narrowness is in your own feelings.
wmth@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not come into close association with unbelievers, like oxen yoked with asses. For what is there in common between righteousness and lawlessness? Or what partnership has light with darkness?
wmth@2Corinthians:6:15 @ Where can harmony between Christ and Belial be found? Or what participation has a believer with an unbeliever?
wmth@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore,
wmth@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Having therefore these promises, beloved friends, let us purify ourselves from all defilement of body and of spirit, and secure perfect holiness through the fear of God.
wmth@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Make room for us in your hearts. There is not one of you whom we have wronged, not one to whom we have done harm, not one over whom we have gained any selfish advantage.
wmth@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For even after our arrival in Macedonia we could get no relief such as human nature craves. We were greatly harassed; there were conflicts without and fears within.
wmth@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Therefore, though I wrote to you, it was not to punish the offender, nor to secure justice for him who had suffered the wrong, but it was chiefly in order that your earnest feeling on our behalf might become manifest to yourselves in the sight of God.
wmth@2Corinthians:8:11 @ And now complete the doing also, in order that, just as there was then the eagerness in desiring, there may now be the accomplishment in proportion to your means.
wmth@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but that, by equalization of burdens, your superfluity having in the present emergency supplied their deficiency, their superfluity may in turn be a supply for your deficiency later on, so that there may be equalization of burdens.
wmth@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Exhibit therefore to the Churches a proof of your love, and a justification of our boasting to these brethren about you.
wmth@2Corinthians:9:5 @ I have thought it absolutely necessary therefore to request these brethren to visit you before I myself come, and to make sure beforehand that the gift of love which you have already promised may be ready as a gift of love, and may not seem to have been something which I have extorted from you.
wmth@2Corinthians:9:13 @ For, by the practical proof of it which you exhibit in this service, you cause God to be extolled for your fidelity to your professed adherence to the Good News of the Christ, and for the liberality of your contributions for them and for all who are in need,
wmth@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We, however, will not exceed due limits in our boasting, but will keep within the limits of the sphere which God has assigned to us as a limit, which reaches even to you.
wmth@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For there is no undue stretch of authority on our part, as though it did not extend to you. We pressed on even to Corinth, and were the first to proclaim to you the Good News of the Christ.
wmth@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not exceed our due limits, and take credit for other men's labours; but we entertain the hope that, as your faith grows, we shall gain promotion among you –still keeping within our own sphere– promotion to a larger field of labour,
wmth@2Corinthians:10:16 @ and shall tell the Good News in the districts beyond you, not boasting in another man's sphere about work already done by him.
wmth@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was with you and my resources failed, there was no one to whom I became a burden –for the brethren when they came from Macedonia fully supplied my wants– and I kept myself from being in the least a burden to you, and will do so still.
wmth@2Corinthians:11:10 @ Christ knows that it is true when I say that I will not be stopped from boasting of this anywhere in Greece.
wmth@2Corinthians:11:15 @ It is therefore no great thing for his servants also to disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will be in accordance with their actions.
wmth@2Corinthians:11:28 @ And besides other things, which I pass over, there is that which presses on me daily–my anxiety for all the Churches.
wmth@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And judging by the stupendous grandeur of the revelations–therefore lest I should be over-elated there has been sent to me, like the agony of impalement, Satan's angel dealing blow after blow, lest I should be over-elated.
wmth@2Corinthians:12:9 @ but His reply has been, »My grace suffices for you, for power matures in weakness.« Most gladly therefore will I boast of my infirmities rather than complain of them–in order that Christ's power may overshadow me.
wmth@2Corinthians:12:13 @ In what respect, therefore, have you been worse dealt with than other Churches, except that I myself never hung as a dead weight upon you? Forgive the injustice I thus did you!
wmth@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I am afraid that perhaps when I come I may not find you to be what I desire, and that you may find me to be what you do not desire; that perhaps there may be contention, jealousy, bitter feeling, party spirit, ill-natured talk, backbiting, undue eulogy, unrest;
wmth@2Corinthians:13:13 @ All God's people here send greetings to you.
wmth@Galatians:1:7 @ For other »Good News« there is none; but there are some persons who are troubling you, and are seeking to distort the Good News concerning Christ.
wmth@Galatians:2:4 @ Yet there was danger of this through the false brethren secretly introduced into the Church, who had stolen in to spy out the freedom which is ours in Christ Jesus, in order to rob us of it.
wmth@Galatians:2:16 @ know that it is not through obedience to Law that a man can be declared free from guilt, but only through faith in Jesus Christ. We have therefore believed in Christ Jesus, for the purpose of being declared free from guilt, through faith in Christ and not through obedience to Law. For through obedience to Law no human being shall be declared free from guilt.
wmth@Galatians:2:18 @ Why, if I am now rebuilding that structure of sin which I had demolished, I am thereby constituting myself a transgressor;
wmth@Galatians:3:7 @ Notice therefore that those who possess faith are true sons of Abraham.
wmth@Galatians:3:20 @ But there cannot be a mediator where only one individual is concerned.
wmth@Galatians:4:7 @ Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir also through God's own act.
wmth@Galatians:4:31 @ Therefore, brethren, since we are not the children of a slave-girl, but of the free woman–
wmth@Galatians:5:24 @ Against such things as these there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their lower nature with its passions and appetites.
wmth@Galatians:6:3 @ For if there is any one who thinks himself to be somebody when he is nobody, he is deluding himself.
wmth@Ephesians:1:23 @ the completeness of Him who everywhere fills the universe with Himself.
wmth@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore, do not forget that formerly you were Gentiles as to your bodily condition. You were called the Uncircumcision by those who style themselves the Circumcised–their circumcision being one which the knife has effected.
wmth@Ephesians:2:19 @ You are therefore no longer mere foreigners or persons excluded from civil rights. On the contrary you share citizenship with God's people and are members of His family.
wmth@Ephesians:3:13 @ Therefore I entreat you not to lose heart in the midst of my sufferings on your behalf, for they bring you honour.
wmth@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is but one body and but one Spirit, as also when you were called you had one and the same hope held out to you.
wmth@Ephesians:4:5 @ There is but one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
wmth@Ephesians:4:17 @ Therefore I warn you, and I implore you in the name of the Master, no longer to live as the Gentiles in their perverseness live,
wmth@Ephesians:5:1 @ Therefore be imitators of God, as His dear children.
wmth@Ephesians:5:7 @ Therefore do not become sharers with them.
wmth@Ephesians:5:8 @ There was a time when you were nothing but darkness. Now, as Christians, you are Light itself.
wmth@Ephesians:5:15 @ Therefore be very careful how you live and act. Let it not be as unwise men, but as wise.
wmth@Ephesians:6:9 @ And you masters, act towards your slaves on the same principles, and refrain from threats. For you know that in Heaven there is One who is your Master as well as theirs, and that merely earthly distinctions there are none with Him.
wmth@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore put on the complete armour of God, so that you may be able to stand your ground on the day of battle, and, having fought to the end, to remain victors on the field.
wmth@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand therefore, first fastening round you the girdle of truth and putting on the breastplate of uprightness
wmth@Philippians:1:13 @ And thus it has become notorious among all the Imperial Guards, and everywhere, that it is for the sake of Christ that I am a prisoner;
wmth@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed actually preach Christ out of envy and contentiousness but there are also others who do it from good will.
wmth@Philippians:1:16 @ These latter preach Him from love to me, knowing that I am here for the defence of the Good News;
wmth@Philippians:2:1 @ If then I can appeal to you as the followers of Christ, if there is any persuasive power in love and any common sharing of the Spirit, or if you have any tender-heartedness and compassion, make my joy complete by being of one mind,
wmth@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my dearly-loved friends, as I have always found you obedient, labour earnestly with fear and trembling –not merely as though I were present with you, but much more now since I am absent from you– labour earnestly, I say, to make sure of your own salvation.
wmth@Philippians:2:28 @ I am therefore all the more eager to send him, in the hope that when you see him again you may be glad and I may have the less sorrow.
wmth@Philippians:2:29 @ Receive him therefore with heartfelt Christian joy, and hold in honour men like him;
wmth@Philippians:2:30 @ because it was for the sake of Christ's work that he came so near death, hazarding, as he did, his very life in endeavouring to make good any deficiency that there might be in your gifts to me.
wmth@Philippians:3:15 @ Therefore let all of us who are mature believers cherish these thoughts; and if in any respect you think differently, that also God will make clear to you.
wmth@Philippians:3:18 @ For there are many whom I have often described to you, and I now even with tears describe them, as being enemies to the Cross of Christ.
wmth@Philippians:4:1 @ Therefore, my brethren, dearly loved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in the Lord, my dearly-loved ones.
wmth@Philippians:4:8 @ Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever wins respect, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovable, whatever is of good repute –if there is any virtue or anything deemed worthy of praise– cherish the thought of these things.
wmth@Philippians:4:22 @ All God's people here greet you–especially the members of Caesar's household.
wmth@Colossians:1:6 @ For it has reached you, and remains with you, just as it has also spread through the whole world, yielding fruit there and increasing, as it has done among you from the day when first you heard it and came really to know the grace of God,
wmth@Colossians:2:6 @ As therefore you have received the Christ, even Jesus our Lord, live and act in vital union with Him;
wmth@Colossians:2:8 @ Take care lest there be some one who leads you away as prisoners by means of his philosophy and idle fancies, following human traditions and the world's crude notions instead of following Christ.
wmth@Colossians:2:16 @ Therefore suffer no one to sit in judgement on you as to eating or drinking or with regard to a festival, a new moon or a sabbath.
wmth@Colossians:2:23 @ These rules have indeed an appearance of wisdom where self-imposed worship exists, and an affectation of humility and an ascetic severity. But not one of them is of any value in combating the indulgence of our lower natures.
wmth@Colossians:3:1 @ If however you have risen with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, enthroned at God's right hand.
wmth@Colossians:3:5 @ Therefore put to death your earthward inclinations–fornication, impurity, sensual passion, unholy desire, and all greed, for that is a form of idolatry.
wmth@Colossians:3:11 @ In that new creation there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free man, but Christ is everything and is in all of us.
wmth@Colossians:3:12 @ Clothe yourselves therefore, as God's own people holy and dearly loved, with tender-heartedness, kindness, lowliness of mind, meekness, long-suffering;
wmth@Colossians:3:25 @ The man who perpetrates a wrong will find the wrong repaid to him; and with God there are no merely earthly distinctions.
wmth@Colossians:4:9 @ And with him I send our dear and trusty brother Onesimus, who is one of yourselves. They will inform you of everything here.
wmth@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For it was not only from you that the Master's Message sounded forth throughout Macedonia and Greece; but everywhere your faith in God has become known, so that it is unnecessary for us to say anything about it.
wmth@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our preaching was not grounded on a delusion, nor prompted by mingled motives, nor was there fraud in it.
wmth@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ and that in this matter there be no encroaching on the rights of a brother Christian and no overreaching him. For the Lord is an avenger in all such cases, as we have already taught you and solemnly warned you.
wmth@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore a defiant spirit in such a case provokes not man but God, who puts His Holy Spirit into your hearts.
wmth@1Thessalonians:4:18 @ And so we shall be with the Lord for ever. Therefore encourage one another with these words.
wmth@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ While they are saying »Peace and safety!« then in a moment destruction falls upon them, like birth-pains on a woman who is with child; and escape there is none.
wmth@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ Therefore encourage one another, and let each one help to strengthen his friend, as in fact you do.
wmth@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ But with respect to the Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to meet Him, we entreat you, brethren,
wmth@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not readily to become unsettled in mind or troubled –either by any pretended spiritual revelation or by any message or letter claiming to have been sent by us– through fancying that the day of the Lord is now here.
wmth@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know that it is your duty to follow our example. There was no disorder in our lives among you,
wmth@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that there are some of you who live disorderly lives and are mere idle busybodies.
wmth@1Timothy:1:4 @ and the attention they bestow on mere fables and endless pedigrees, such as lead to controversy rather than to a true stewardship for God, which only exists where there is faith. And I make the same request now.
wmth@1Timothy:2:5 @ For there is but one God and but one Mediator between God and men–Christ Jesus, Himself man;
wmth@1Timothy:2:8 @ So then I would have the men everywhere pray, lifting to God holy hands which are unstained with anger or strife;
wmth@1Timothy:4:10 @ and here is the motive of our toiling and wrestling, because we have our hopes fixed on the ever-living God, who is the Saviour of all mankind, and especially of believers.
wmth@1Timothy:5:14 @ I would therefore have the younger women marry, bear children, rule in domestic matters, and furnish the Adversary with no excuse for slander.
wmth@2Timothy:1:17 @ Nay, when he was here in Rome, he took great pains to inquire where I was living, and at last he found me.
wmth@2Timothy:2:20 @ Now in a great house there are not only articles of gold and silver, but also others of wood and of earthenware; and some are for specially honourable, and others for common use.
wmth@2Timothy:2:21 @ If therefore a man keeps himself clear of these latter, he himself will be for specially honourable use, consecrated, fit for the Master's service, and fully equipped for every good work.
wmth@2Timothy:4:8 @ From this time onward there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me, but also to all who love the thought of His Appearing.
wmth@Titus:1:6 @ wherever there is a man of blameless life, true to his one wife, having children who are themselves believers and are free from every reproach of profligacy or of stubborn self-will.
wmth@Titus:1:10 @ For there are many that spurn authority–idle, talkative and deceitful persons, who, for the most part, are adherents of the Circumcision.
wmth@Titus:1:13 @ This testimony is true. Therefore sternly denounce them, that they may be robust in their faith,
wmth@Titus:3:3 @ For there was a time when we also were deficient in understanding, obstinate, deluded, the slaves of various cravings and pleasures, spending our lives in malice and envy, hateful ourselves and hating one another.
wmth@Titus:3:12 @ After I have sent Artemas or Tychicus to you, lose no time in joining me at Nicopolis; for I have decided to pass the winter there.
wmth@Titus:3:15 @ Every one here sends you greeting. Greet the believers who hold us dear. May grace be with you all.
wmth@Philemon:1:8 @ Therefore, though I might with Christ's authority speak very freely and order you to do what is fitting,
wmth@Philemon:1:17 @ If therefore you regard me as a comrade, receive him as if he were I myself.
wmth@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brethren, sharers with others in a heavenly invitation, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest whose followers we profess to be.
wmth@Hebrews:3:9 @ where your forefathers so sorely tried My patience and saw all that I did during forty years.
wmth@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was greatly grieved with that generation, and I said, `They are ever going astray in heart, and have not learnt to know My paths.'
wmth@Hebrews:3:12 @ see to it, brethren, that there is never in any one of you –as perhaps there may be– a sinful and unbelieving heart, manifesting itself in revolt from the ever-living God.
wmth@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore let us be on our guard lest perhaps, while He still leaves us a promise of being admitted to His rest, some one of you should be found to have fallen short of it.
wmth@Hebrews:4:9 @ It follows that there still remains a sabbath rest for the people of God.
wmth@Hebrews:4:16 @ Therefore let us come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our times of need.
wmth@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore leaving elementary instruction about the Christ, let us advance to mature manhood and not be continually re-laying a foundation of repentance from lifeless works and of faith in God,
wmth@Hebrews:6:20 @ where Jesus has entered as a forerunner on our behalf, having become, like Melchizedek, a High Priest for ever.
wmth@Hebrews:7:8 @ Moreover here frail mortal men receive tithes: there one receives them about whom there is evidence that he is alive.
wmth@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if the crowning blessing was attainable by means of the Levitical priesthood –for as resting on this foundation the people received the Law, to which they are still subject– what further need was there for a Priest of a different kind to be raised up belonging to the order of Melchizedek instead of being said to belong to the order of Aaron?
wmth@Hebrews:7:18 @ On the one hand we have here the abrogation of an earlier code because it was weak and ineffective–
wmth@Hebrews:8:3 @ Every High Priest, however, is appointed to offer both bloodless gifts and sacrifices. Therefore this High Priest also must have some offering to present.
wmth@Hebrews:8:4 @ If then He were still on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since here there are already those who present the offerings in obedience to the Law,
wmth@Hebrews:8:7 @ For if that first Covenant had been free from imperfection, there would have been no attempt to introduce another.
wmth@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a legal `will,' there must also be a death brought forward in evidence–the death of him who made it.
wmth@Hebrews:9:22 @ Indeed we may almost say that in obedience to the Law everything is sprinkled with blood, and that apart from the outpouring of blood there is no remission of sins.
wmth@Hebrews:9:23 @ It was needful therefore that the copies of the things in Heaven should be cleansed in this way, but that the heavenly things themselves should be cleansed with more costly sacrifices.
wmth@Hebrews:10:18 @ But where these have been forgiven no further offering for sin is required.
wmth@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we wilfully persist in sin after having received the full knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains in reserve any other sacrifice for sins.
wmth@Hebrews:10:27 @ There remains nothing but a certain awful expectation of judgement, and the fury of a fire which before long will devour the enemies of the truth.
wmth@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not cast from you your confident hope, for it will receive a vast reward.
wmth@Hebrews:10:37 @ For there is still but a short time and then
wmth@Hebrews:11:6 @ But where there is no faith it is impossible truly to please Him; for the man who draws near to God must believe that there is a God and that He proves Himself a rewarder of those who earnestly try to find Him.
wmth@Hebrews:11:8 @ Through faith Abraham, upon being called to leave home and go into a land which he was soon to receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing where he was going to.
wmth@Hebrews:11:12 @ And thus there sprang from one man, and him practically dead, a nation like the stars of the sky in number, and like the sands on the sea shore which cannot be counted.
wmth@Hebrews:11:13 @ All these died in the possession of faith. They had not received the promised blessings, but had seen them from a distance and had greeted them, and had acknowledged themselves to be foreigners and strangers here on earth;
wmth@Hebrews:11:14 @ for men who acknowledge this make it manifest that they are seeking elsewhere a country of their own.
wmth@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore, surrounded as we are by such a vast cloud of witnesses, let us fling aside every encumbrance and the sin that so readily entangles our feet. And let us run with patient endurance the race that lies before us,
wmth@Hebrews:12:2 @ simply fixing our gaze upon Jesus, our Prince Leader in the faith, who will also award us the prize. He, for the sake of the joy which lay before Him, patiently endured the cross, looking with contempt upon its shame, and afterwards seated Himself – where He still sits– at the right hand of the throne of God.![[pBiblx2]](/img/menu.png)
