bwe@Romans:1:7 @ I send greetings to all the Christians who live in the city of Rome. God loves you and has called you to be his people. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you. In their kindness may they give you peace.

bwe@Romans:1:14 @ This is something I must do for the Greek people and for all other people. I must do it for people who are wise and for people who are not wise.

bwe@Romans:1:16 @ I am not ashamed of the good news of Jesus Christ. The good news is the power God uses to save every one who believes. The good news was for the Jews first, but also for those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:1:17 @ The good news shows how God puts a person right. God puts a person right when that person believes in his Son and keeps on believing. The holy writings say, A person who is put right because he believes, will live for ever.

bwe@Romans:1:23 @ They did not worship God who cannot die. But they worshipped things made to look like a man who does die. They worshipped things made to look like birds and animals and snakes.

bwe@Romans:1:25 @ They would not believe what was true about God. They believed a lie. They worshipped and worked for something that was made by God. They did not worship God-God who made all things. He is the one to worship for ever. Amen. May it be so!

bwe@Romans:1:32 @ They know that God says that people who do such things should die. Even so, they not only do them, but they praise other people who do them.

bwe@Romans:2:2 @ We know that God judges people who do such things. And he judges them by what is true.

bwe@Romans:2:3 @ Man, you judge people who do such things and yet you do them yourself. Do you think that God will not judge you?

bwe@Romans:2:7 @ He will give life for ever to people who keep on doing good. These people want to have glory and honour from God, and to live for ever.

bwe@Romans:2:8 @ But God will be very angry with the people who think of themselves first before others. They do not obey what is right. They do wrong things.

bwe@Romans:2:9 @ Every one who does what is wrong will have much trouble and a hard time. This will happen to the Jews first, then to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:2:10 @ And every one who does what is good, will be made great. He will have honour and peace. This will happen to the Jews first and then to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:2:12 @ All those who do not know the law <FI>of God given to Moses<Fi> and did what was wrong, will die. But they will not be judged by the law. All those who know the law and did what was wrong will be judged by the law.

bwe@Romans:2:13 @ (God does not say people are good because they have heard the law. But people who obey the law will be called good people.

bwe@Romans:2:19 @ You are sure that you can lead people who are like blind men. You are like a light for people who are in the dark.

bwe@Romans:2:20 @ You are sure that you can tell foolish people what is right. You can teach people who are like children. You know what you need to know and you know what is true because you have the law.

bwe@Romans:2:24 @ The holy writings say, People who are not Jews say wrong things about the name of God. They do it because of what you Jews do.

bwe@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision of the body is a good thing if you obey the law. But if you break the law, you are like a man who has not been circumcised with this mark of the Jew.

bwe@Romans:2:26 @ So if a man who has not been circumcised obeys the law, will he not be like a man who has been circumcised?

bwe@Romans:2:29 @ If a person is a Jew inside, he is really a Jew. It is God who praises him, not people. True circumcision is done in the heart. It is in the spirit, not in the body. Such people are not praised; but God praises them.

bwe@Romans:3:8 @ Some people say wrong things about us. They say that we say, Let us do wrong things so that good things will happen. People who say such things should be punished.

bwe@Romans:3:9 @ So what shall we say? Are we Jews any better than other people? No, we are not! I have already shown that all men, both Jews and people who are not Jews have done wrong things.

bwe@Romans:3:19 @ We know that everything the law says, it says to the people who have the law. Then no one can say a word for themselves. All the people in the world will be brought to God to be judged.

bwe@Romans:3:22 @ God puts people right with himself when they believe in Jesus Christ. He does this for all who believe. They are all alike.

bwe@Romans:3:26 @ God also shows that he is right now. He does this when he makes right any person who believes in Jesus.

bwe@Romans:3:30 @ He will put right people who have been circumcised <FI>the Jews<Fi> because they believe. And he will also put right people who are not circumcised when they believe.

bwe@Romans:4:5 @ But no person can work to put himself right with God. It is God alone who makes a bad person right. The one who believes in him-even a bad person is put right.

bwe@Romans:4:7 @ David said, God blesses people who have been forgiven the wrong things they have done. God covers over the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Romans:4:9 @ Does God bless only people who have been circumcised? Or does he also bless those who are not? We say, because Abraham believed God, God called him a good man. His faith made him right with God.

bwe@Romans:4:11 @ Abraham was circumcised as a sign. It was a sign that he was a good man, because he believed when he was not yet circumcised. That makes him the father of all people who believe, even those who are not circumcised. God says they are good people.

bwe@Romans:4:12 @ That makes him also the father of those who are circumcised. I mean people who are circumcised and do as our father Abraham did. Even when he was not circumcised, he believed.

bwe@Romans:4:14 @ If the world will belong to people who obey the law, it is of no use to believe God. And the promise is no good.

bwe@Romans:4:16 @ That is why people must believe. Because God is kind, he makes the promise sure for all of Abrahams children. The promise is for those who have the law and also for those who believe as Abraham did. He is the father of us all.

bwe@Romans:4:24 @ They say it for us too. God will say we are put right if we believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from death.

bwe@Romans:5:11 @ Not only is that true, but it is through our Lord Jesus Christ that we can enjoy God. This is for all who have been brought back to God by him.

bwe@Romans:5:14 @ Yet death ruled over people from Adams time to Moses time. It even ruled over the people who were not as wrong as Adam. Adam was like a person who would come later.

bwe@Romans:5:17 @ One man did a wrong thing. And so death ruled over people because of that one man. God has been kind to people and given them his free gift. That gift is to make people right with God. People who take that gift will live and rule because of one man, Jesus Christ.

bwe@Romans:6:7 @ Anyone who has died no longer does wrong things.

bwe@Romans:6:13 @ Do not use your bodies to do wrong things. But give yourselves to God like men who have been raised from death to life. Give your bodies to God and use them to do good things.

bwe@Romans:7:1 @ My brothers, I am saying this to you people who know the law. Do you not know that the law is master over a person only while he lives?

bwe@Romans:7:4 @ In the same way my brothers, you died when Christ died. And you are free from the law. Now you belong to another person. You belong to the one who has been raised from death. Because of that, we are able to do what God wants us to do.

bwe@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been made free from the law. We died, and so we are no longer slaves to the one who was our master. Now we are slaves to God in our new life. This new life is ruled by the Spirit. We do not work for the old written law.

bwe@Romans:7:17 @ So now it is no longer I who do it, but my wrong ways in me.

bwe@Romans:7:20 @ If I do the thing I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but the wrong thing in me that does it.

bwe@Romans:7:24 @ I am a very sad man. Who will save me from this body that will make me die?

bwe@Romans:7:25 @ Thank God for Jesus Christ our Lord who will do it! So this is the way it is. In my mind I am a slave to do the law of God, but in my body I am a slave to do the law of wrong things.

bwe@Romans:8:1 @ So now those who belong to Christ Jesus will not be judged.

bwe@Romans:8:7 @ People who think about the things of this life are Gods enemies. They do not obey Gods law. They cannot obey it.

bwe@Romans:8:8 @ People who do what their bodies want cannot please God.

bwe@Romans:8:11 @ God raised Christ Jesus from death. Does Gods Spirit live in you? Then God will also give life to your bodies which die. He does this through his Spirit who lives in you.

bwe@Romans:8:14 @ All who do what Gods Spirit leads them to do are Gods sons.

bwe@Romans:8:19 @ The whole world is waiting for the time when the sons of God will be seen.

bwe@Romans:8:22 @ We know that the whole world has been crying. It has had much pain until now.

bwe@Romans:8:28 @ We know that God works out everything for the good of those who love him. They are the people who are part of his plan.

bwe@Romans:8:31 @ So what shall we say about this? If God is on our side, who can be against us?

bwe@Romans:8:33 @ Who will say anything against Gods chosen people? For it is God himself who says they have been put right with him.

bwe@Romans:8:34 @ Who will say they are not right? Jesus Christ died. Yes, he was raised from death. He is at the right side of God. And he talks to God for us.

bwe@Romans:8:35 @ Who can take us away from Christs love? We may have trouble. We may have hard times. People may make us suffer because we believe. We may have no food to eat and no clothes to wear. We may be in danger. We may be killed with big knives. Can any of these things take us away from Christs love?

bwe@Romans:9:5 @ God will do what he said he would do. Not all who are Jews belong to the real Israel.

bwe@Romans:9:6 @ Not all the people in Abrahams family are his children. But the holy writings say, It is Isaacs family who will be called your family.

bwe@Romans:9:7 @ This means that not all who were born in Abrahams family are Gods children. God promised Abraham a son <FI>Isaac<Fi>. His children <FI>the Jews<Fi> are the ones that God called Abrahams true family.

bwe@Romans:9:11 @ When the children were not yet born, they had done nothing good or bad. God chooses the people he wants. He does not choose people because of what they have done. He chooses people who will answer his call. So he said to Rebecca, The older one will be a slave of the younger one.

bwe@Romans:9:18 @ So you will ask me, Why does God still blame us? Who can fight against what God has planned?

bwe@Romans:9:19 @ But you are only a man. Will you tell God what to do? Can the pot say to the man who made it, Why did you make me like this?

bwe@Romans:9:20 @ The person who makes pots has power over the mud. He can make two different pots out of one pile of mud. One pot will be fine and another will not be fine. Can the potter not make them so?

bwe@Romans:9:21 @ God has a right to be very angry if he wants to be. He has the right to show his power. God was very angry with some people who deserved to die. And yet he waited a long time before he did anything to them.

bwe@Romans:9:23 @ That means he also called us. He called not only those who are Jews, but also those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:9:28 @ And Isaiah also said, The Lord who has power, left some of our children. If he had not, we would have been like Sodom. We would have been destroyed like Gomorrah.

bwe@Romans:9:29 @ So what shall we say? The people who are not Jews have been put right with God. They did nothing to make themselves right with God. But they were put right because they believed God.

bwe@Romans:9:32 @ That is what the holy writings say, I put in Zion a stone on which people will hit their feet. It is a rock that will make them fall down. Anyone who believes in him will not be ashamed.

bwe@Romans:10:4 @ Christ has made an end to the law as a way of getting right with God. Everyone who believes in him is put right with God.

bwe@Romans:10:5 @ Moses wrote this: A man who obeys the law will live by it.

bwe@Romans:10:6 @ But the holy writings also speak about those who are put right by believing: Do not say in your heart, "Who will go up into heaven?" (That means, Who will go up to heaven to bring Christ down?)

bwe@Romans:10:7 @ Do not say, "Who will go down into the hole that has no bottom?" (That means, Who will go down to bring Christ up from the dead people?)

bwe@Romans:10:11 @ The holy writings say, Anyone who believes in him will not be let down.

bwe@Romans:10:12 @ The Jews and other people are alike. The same Lord is Lord of all people. He richly blesses all who call out to him.

bwe@Romans:10:13 @ The holy writings say, Everyone who calls out to the Lord will be saved.

bwe@Romans:10:15 @ And how can people tell about him if no one sends them? The holy writings say, How good are the feet of those who bring the good news of peace and happiness.

bwe@Romans:10:16 @ But they have not all obeyed the good news. It is as Isaiah said it would be, Lord, who has believed what we have told them?

bwe@Romans:10:19 @ But I ask, did not the Jews know? First the book of Moses says, I will make you jealous through people who are not a nation like the Jews. I will make you angry through people who do not even know or understand these things.

bwe@Romans:10:20 @ But the book of Isaiah says even stronger words. The people who did not look for me have found me. I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.

bwe@Romans:10:21 @ But he says about the Jews, All day I held out my hands to a people who did not obey me, who said wrong things against me.

bwe@Romans:11:2 @ God has not left his people whom he knew from the first. Do you not know what the holy writings say about the prophet Elijah? He talked to God against the people of Israel.

bwe@Romans:11:4 @ But what did God answer him? He said, I have seven thousand men who have not kneeled down to the idol god Baal.

bwe@Romans:11:11 @ So I ask, Have their feet been caught so that they have really fallen down? No. But because they began to fall, the people who are not Jews were told how to be saved. That would make the Jews jealous.

bwe@Romans:11:12 @ The people who are not Jews have been richly blessed because the Jews failed. So it will be even better for them when the Jews no longer fail God.

bwe@Romans:11:13 @ Now I say this to you who are not Jews. I am an apostle to those who are not Jews, so I think highly of the work I have been sent to do.

bwe@Romans:11:22 @ See how kind God is. And see how hard he is. He is hard on those who have fallen. But God is kind to you if you go on following in his ways. If you do not, you also will be broken off.

bwe@Romans:11:34 @ The holy writings say, Who has known what the Lord thinks? Who has ever told him what to do?

bwe@Romans:11:35 @ Who has given a gift to God first, so that God would give him something also?

bwe@Romans:12:13 @ Give to Gods people who need it. Be glad to take care of strangers in your house.

bwe@Romans:12:14 @ Bless those who do wrong things to you. Bless them. Do not curse them.

bwe@Romans:12:15 @ Be happy with people who are happy. Cry with people who cry.

bwe@Romans:12:19 @ My dear brothers, do not punish people who do wrong to you. But let Gods anger punish them. In the holy writings the Lord says, I myself will punish people. If they have done wrong things, I will do wrong things to them also.

bwe@Romans:13:2 @ So anyone who fights against the ruler, fights against what God put there. And those who fight will be punished.

bwe@Romans:13:4 @ Such a person is Gods servant and will do what is good for you. But if you do what is wrong, you should fear him. He has great power and he will use it. He is Gods servant and will punish those who do wrong.

bwe@Romans:13:7 @ Pay them all that they should have. Pay taxes to the person who should have the taxes. Pay money to the person who should have the money. Respect the people who should be respected. Honour a person who should be honoured.

bwe@Romans:13:8 @ Do not have any debts, but love each other. Anyone who loves his neighbour has done all that the law says we should do.

bwe@Romans:13:10 @ Anyone who loves his neighbour will do no wrong to him. So love does all that the law says to do.

bwe@Romans:13:13 @ Let us live in the right way like people who are in the light. We must not take part in noisy feasting with dancing, or get drunk. We must not do any kind of wrong thing with sex. We must not quarrel or be jealous.

bwe@Romans:14:2 @ One person believes he may eat anything. Another person, who does not believe that, eats only things that grow in the garden.

bwe@Romans:14:3 @ The one who eats anything must not despise the one who does not eat everything. And the one who does not eat must not judge the person who does. God has accepted him as he is.

bwe@Romans:14:6 @ One man honours the day to honour the Lord; another man does not honour the day to honour the Lord. The person who eats everything, eats it because he honours the Lord. And he thanks God. And the person who will not eat every kind of food also does so to honour the Lord. And he still gives thanks to God.

bwe@Romans:14:14 @ As a Christian, I know and believe that nothing in itself is not right to eat. But it is not right for anyone to eat who thinks it is not right to eat.

bwe@Romans:14:18 @ A person who does the work of Christ in this way pleases God. And people like him.

bwe@Romans:14:22 @ Keep to yourself and God what you believe about these things. God blesses a man who does not feel he has done wrong when he did what he thought was right.

bwe@Romans:14:23 @ But a man who is not sure that he should eat something, does wrong if he eats it. That is because he does not believe the thing he is doing is right to do. And it is wrong to do what you do not believe is right.

bwe@Romans:15:1 @ We who are strong must help those who are not strong. We must not do what pleases us.

bwe@Romans:15:9 @ He did this so that people who are not Jews would praise God because he is kind. The holy writings say, So I will praise you among the people who are not Jews. I will sing songs to your name.

bwe@Romans:15:10 @ The holy writings also say, People who are not Jews, be glad with those who are Gods people.

bwe@Romans:15:11 @ And they also say, People who are not Jews, praise the Lord. All peoples should praise him.

bwe@Romans:15:12 @ Also, Isaiah says, Someone from Jesses family will come. He will come to rule the people who are not Jews. People who are not Jews will have hope in him.

bwe@Romans:15:16 @ I am a servant of Christ Jesus to the people who are not Jews. I am like a priest to them, to tell them Gods good news. Then I offer the people to God. That pleases God. They have been accepted by him and made holy by the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Romans:15:18 @ I will speak only of what Christ has done through me. People who are not Jews have obeyed the good news. They have obeyed because of what I told them and because of what I did.

bwe@Romans:15:21 @ The holy writings say, They were not told about him, but they will see him. And the people who have not heard of him will understand.

bwe@Romans:15:26 @ The people of Macedonia and Achaia wanted to send a gift to help Gods people in Jerusalem who are poor.

bwe@Romans:15:27 @ They wanted to do it, and they should do it for them. The Jews gave the people who were not Jews the good things their spirits need. So the people who were not Jews should give the Jews the good things their bodies need.

bwe@Romans:15:31 @ Ask him to save me from the people in Judea who do not believe. Ask him that the gift I take to Jerusalem may please Gods people there.

bwe@Romans:16:3 @ I send greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, who worked with me for Christ Jesus.

bwe@Romans:16:4 @ They almost died to save me. I am not the only one who thanks them. All the churches who are not Jews thank them also.

bwe@Romans:16:13 @ Give my greetings to Rufus. The Lord chose him. Give my greetings also to his mother who is like a mother to me.

bwe@Romans:16:14 @ Give my greetings to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brothers who are with them.

bwe@Romans:16:15 @ Give my greetings to Philologus, Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all Gods people who are with them.

bwe@Romans:16:17 @ Brothers, I ask you to do this. Watch the people who make quarrels. They make people do wrong because they teach things you have not been taught. Have nothing to do with those people.

bwe@Romans:16:18 @ Those people do not work for our Lord Jesus Christ. They work only for themselves. With their words of praise they fool people who do not know what is wrong.

bwe@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius sends you greetings. I am staying in his house. The whole church that meets in his house sends you greetings too. Erastus sends greetings to you. He takes care of the money for the city. Our brother Quartus sends you greetings.

bwe@Romans:16:26 @ The books of the prophets have told this message. The God who lives for ever told the prophets to write this message so that all the people who are not Jews will believe and obey.

bwe@Romans:16:27 @ God is the only one who is wise. Praise him for ever because of Jesus Christ. Yes, it is so!

bwe@1Corinthians:1:2 @ Our Christian brother Sosthenes and I send greetings to the people who are the church of God in the city of Corinth. You are people whom Christ Jesus has made holy. You, too, are chosen to be Gods people. And we send greetings to all the people everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is their Lord, just as he is our Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God never fails anyone. It is he who called you to belong to his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:18 @ When people who are turning away from God hear about the cross, they say, That is foolish! But for us who are being saved, the cross is the power God uses to save us.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where are your wise people, the men who know books, the men who like to talk about the things of this world? God has shown that the clever things of this world are nothing.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:21 @ God is wise. But the people of the world were not wise enough to know God. So he chose to save people who believe the good news that we tell them, even though the good news may seem to be foolish.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:22 @ The Jews say, We must see a sign. Those who are not Jews say, We want something we can understand.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:23 @ But we tell people about Christ who died on a cross. The leaders of the Jews do not like this, and those who are not Jews laugh at it.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:6 @ However, our words are wise words to those who really believe. But they are not the kind of wise words that the people of this world speak. They are not the kind of wise words that the rulers of this world speak. Those rulers will die.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:8 @ None of the rulers of this world knew about these things. If they had, they would not have killed on a cross the Lord who was full of Gods glory.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:9 @ The holy writings say, No eye has seen the things God has made ready for those who love him. No ear has heard about them. No persons heart has ever thought of them.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:11 @ The only one who really knows what a person is thinking is the spirit of the person himself. So also, no one knows what God is thinking, only the Spirit of God.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:14 @ The person who does not have the Spirit does not receive the blessings of the Spirit of God. He thinks they are foolish. He cannot understand them because only people who have the Spirit of God can test them.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:15 @ He who has the Spirit of God tests all things. But others cannot test him.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:16 @ The holy writings say: Who knows the mind of the Lord so that he may teach him? As for us, we really do have the mind of Christ.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:1 @ My brothers, I could not talk to you at first as to people who have the Spirit of God. But I talked to you as people who have the spirit of this world. I talked to you as people who are very new-born, baby Christians.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:5 @ After all, who is Apollos? And who is Paul? We both work for God. You believed because of the work we did. The Lord gave each of us our work to do.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So then the man who plants is nothing and the man who waters is nothing. God alone makes the seed grow.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:8 @ The man who plants and the man who waters are equal. Each one will be paid for his own work.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:17 @ God will punish anyone who spoils his house. His house is holy, and you are the house.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:1 @ People should look at us as men who are servants of Christ. We take care of the secret things of God.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:2 @ A man who takes care of things must be a person his master can trust.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:7 @ If you are better, who made you that way? Everything you have was given to you. So then, why are you proud of it? Was it not given to you?

bwe@1Corinthians:4:9 @ It seems to me that God has put us apostles at the end of the line. We are like men who are to be put to death. The whole world, angels and men, look at us.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:1 @ I have heard a very bad report about you. I hear there are wrong sexual ways among you. Even the people who are not Jews do not allow wrong sex such as this among them. A man is living with his fathers wife!

bwe@1Corinthians:5:2 @ Can it be that you are still proud? This should make you very sad. The man who has done this should be put out of the church meeting.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:3 @ My body is not with you, but my spirit is. Just as if I were right there, I have decided what to do about the man who did such a thing as this.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:8 @ I wrote a letter to you. I told you not to be friends with people who use sex the wrong way <FI>with a person they are not married to<Fi>.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I did not mean the people of the world <FI>people who are not Christians<Fi> -some of them use sex the wrong way; or always want more things; or steal; or worship idols. To keep away from them altogether would mean you would have to go out of the world.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:10 @ But I wrote to you not to be friends with anyone who says he is a Christian and uses wrong sex, or always wants more, or has idols, or curses, or drinks too much strong drink, or steals. I told you not even to sit down to eat with such a person.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:11 @ Why should I judge the people who are outside the church? You are to judge the church people.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:12 @ God judges those who are outside. The holy writings say, Send the bad person away from among you.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:1 @ When one of you has some complaint against a Christian brother, why does he take him to be judged by those who are not Christians? Why does he not take him to Gods people?

bwe@1Corinthians:6:4 @ So if you have complaints about things in this life, why do you take them to those who are not church people?

bwe@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But now one Christian brother takes another Christian brother to be judged by people who are not Christians.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that bad people will have no part in the kingdom where God rules? Do not be fooled. There are some people who will not have part in that place. They are those who commit adultery of any kind, those who have idols, or steal, or are always wanting more, or talk wrong things about people, or drink plenty of strong drink, or take things by force, or curse.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that the person who joins himself to a bad woman becomes one person with her? The holy writings say, The two people shall be like one body.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But the one who joins himself with the Lord becomes one spirit with him.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Run away from every kind of wrong sex! Every other wrong thing which a person does is done outside of his body. But the person who uses sex the wrong way does a wrong thing to his own body.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Do you not know that your body is the house of the Holy Spirit who lives in you? God gave the Holy Spirit to you. Remember, you do not belong to yourself.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:8 @ Here is what I say to those who are not married and to those whose husbands are dead. It is good for them to stay the way I am.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:10 @ And here is what I say to those who are married. (And yet it is not what I say. It is what the Lord has said.) The wife may not leave her husband.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:12 @ Here is what I say to other people. (This is my word, not the Lords.) Perhaps a Christian brother has a wife who is not a Christian. If she wants to stay with him, then he should not send her away.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:13 @ Perhaps a woman has a husband who is not a Christian. If he wants to stay with her, then the woman should not leave him.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:14 @ The husband who is not a Christian is made holy by the wife. And the wife who is not a Christian is made holy by the husband. If this were not so, then your children would not be holy. But they are holy.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:15 @ If the one who is not a Christian really wants to leave, let him go. The Christian husband or wife is free then. God has called us to live in peace.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Here is what I say about those who are not married. (I have no law from the Lord about this. But here is what I think. You can trust me because the Lord has helped me.)

bwe@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But, if you marry, it is not wrong. And if a woman marries, it is not wrong. People who marry will have trouble in this life. And I want to keep you out of it.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:29 @ Here, my brothers, is what I mean. The time is short. In the time that is left, men who have wives should live as though they did not.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:30 @ People who cry should live as though they were not sad. People who laugh should live as though they were not glad. People who buy things should live as though they did not own them.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:31 @ And people who are busy with things in this world should not be too busy. The world as we see it is passing away.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:32 @ I want your minds to be free. The man who is not married thinks about the things of the Lord. He tries to please the Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But the man who is married thinks about the things of this world. He tries to please his wife.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:34 @ In the same way, there is a difference between the woman who is married and the one who is not. The woman who is not married thinks about the things of the Lord. She wants her body and her spirit to be holy. But the married woman thinks about the things of this life. She tries to please her husband.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:37 @ But the man who has made up his mind not to marry his woman will do well. That is, if he does not have to marry her, and is able to control himself, and if he is sure about it in his own mind.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So the man who marries his woman will do what is good. But the man who does not marry her will do better.

bwe@1Corinthians:8:6 @ Yet for us there is only one God. He is the Father. All things come from him. He is the one for whom we live. And there is only one Lord. He is Jesus Christ. He made all things. He is the one who gives us life.

bwe@1Corinthians:8:11 @ You know the truth, and yet your knowledge will make your weak brother do wrong. You have hurt the faith of a brother, for whom Christ died.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:3 @ Here is what I say to the people who say wrong things about me.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:7 @ What soldier pays for his own food when he goes to war? Who plants a garden and does not eat what grows in it? Who takes care of animals and does not get any of the milk?

bwe@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Does he not say this altogether for our sakes? Yes, he said it for our sakes. There are people who plough the ground and beat the grain. They do this work because they believe they will have a part of the food for themselves.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:13 @ You know there are men who do the work in the temple. They get their food from the temple. Those who help to make sacrifices in the temple get a part of the sacrifice.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:14 @ It is the same with those who work telling the good news. The Lord said they should get their living from that work.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:20 @ When I was with the Jews, I lived like the Jews, so that I might win the Jews to Christ. I was not under the law. But I lived as if I was under the law of the Jews. I did this so that I might win to Christ those who are under the law.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:21 @ When I was with those who do not have the law of the Jews, I lived as if I did not have the law of the Jews. I did this so that I might win them also. Of course, I myself have laws. I follow the laws of Christ.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Everyone who wants to show his strength must control himself in every way. They do it for a prize that will spoil. But what we do, we do for a reward that will never, never spoil.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:11 @ These things happened to them to teach other people. They were written in the holy writings to teach us who are living in the last days of the world.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:18 @ See what the Jews do. Those who eat the sacrifices all eat things that are sacrificed.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If one who is not a believer asks you to come and eat, if you want to go, then eat the food he gives you. Do not ask any questions about it because you fear it might be wrong to eat it.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, This food has been given to an idol, then do not eat it. Do not eat it because of the one who told you and because it might seem wrong. I mean it might seem wrong, not to you, but to him.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Do nothing that will make Jews, or Greeks, or those who belong to the church of God, turn away from God.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Any man who talks to God or speaks words from God with his head covered brings shame on his head.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But any woman who talks to God or speaks words from God with her head not covered brings shame on her head. She is just the same as a woman who has cut off all her hair.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:19 @ You also have groups of people who do not think the same way. Because of them you will soon learn which people please God the most.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:29 @ The person who eats and drinks in a wrong way will be punished. He does not take it as the Lords body.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore, I want you to understand this. No person who has the Spirit of God ever curses Jesus. And no one can say, Jesus is Lord, if he is not controlled by the Holy Spirit.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:26 @ God has given each person their right place in the church. First, there are the apostles. Second, there are prophets who speak words from God. Third, there are those who teach. Then there are those who do big works. Then there are those who have the gifts to heal people, those who help in the work of the church people, those who lead and guide others, and those who speak Gods words in different kinds of tongues or languages.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:2 @ The person who talks in tongues of a different language does not talk to people, but to God. People do not understand what he says. But he is saying secret things by the Spirit.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But the person who is a prophet speaks words from God to people plainly. He helps them to believe and to be strong, and he comforts them.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:4 @ The person who talks in a different tongue helps himself. But the one who tells forth Gods word helps all the people in the church.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish that you could all talk in different tongues. But I want even more that you should speak words from God for all to hear and understand. The person who speaks words from God is greater than the person who talks in tongues-unless he is able to tell the meaning of his words, so that he helps all the people in the church.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:13 @ So then, the person who talks in a tongue of a different language, should ask God to help tell the meaning of the tongue.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:21 @ The holy writings say, I will talk to these people by strangers and by people who talk in strange tongues. And yet, they will not listen to me. This is what the Lord says.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So then, tongues are a sign to people who do not believe God. They are not a sign to those who believe him. But speaking words from God like a prophet is a sign to those who believe. It is not a sign to those who do not believe.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Sometimes all the people of the church may be gathered together. If everyone talks in tongues, and if some people who do not know or believe come in, they will say that you are crazy.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:32 @ Those who speak words from God are able to keep their own spirits quiet.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Do you think that you were the first ones to tell the word of God? Or do you think that you are the only people who have it?

bwe@1Corinthians:15:8 @ Last of all, I saw him too. I was like one who was born at the wrong time.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:11 @ So it does not matter who gave the message, they or I. This is the message we gave, and this is the message you believed.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:18 @ If that were true, then the people who believed in Christ who have now died, are lost.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But Christ really has been raised from death. He was the first one to rise of all who have died.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:21 @ It was a man who first brought death. So it was also a man who was first raised from death.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:22 @ All people who are of Adam die. And so also, all people who belong to Christ will live.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each one has his turn. Christ rose first. Then those who belong to Christ will rise when he comes again.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:24 @ After that the end will come. Christ will hand over the ruling power to God the Father. Christ will stop all other rulers, and everyone who has any rights and power.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:27 @ The holy writings say, God has put all things under Christ. But it does not mean that God is under Christ. God is the one who put all things under him.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:45 @ The holy writings say, The first man, Adam, was of this world! The last Adam <FI>Christ<Fi> is a Spirit who gives life.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:48 @ Those who are made of earth are like the man made of dust. Those who are for heaven are like the man from heaven.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:16 @ So, my brothers, I ask you to obey men like that. And join happily with all others who are helpers and workers.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The people in the churches of Asia send greetings to you. Aquila and Priscilla and the Christians who meet in their house send you many Christian greetings.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:22 @ Anyone who does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, should be cut off from God. Come soon, Lord!

bwe@2Corinthians:1:2 @ May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you with their loving kindness and peace. Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He is a very, very kind Father to us. He is a God who always comforts and helps people.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:19 @ It is God who makes us stand strong with you in Christ. God has chosen us and put his mark on us.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I make you sad, who is going to make me glad? No one, but the one I made sad.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:3 @ That is why I wrote the letter. I did not want to come and be made sad by those who should make me glad. I am sure that what makes me glad makes you all glad too.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:4 @ When I wrote to you, I was in great trouble and my heart was very heavy. I cried with many tears. I did not want you to be sad, but I just wanted to let you know that I love you very much who made me sad. It was not only me that he made sad. It was every one of you, in a way. I say in a way because I do not want to be too strong in what I say.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:9 @ Anyone whom you forgive, I also forgive. And if I have had anything to forgive, I have already forgiven it for your sakes, just as if we were standing before Christ.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:12 @ We are like a sweet smell to God. It is the smell of Christ we have. We have this sweet smell among the people who are saved and among those who are lost.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:13 @ To some it smells like death and brings death to those who are lost. To others it smells like life and it brings life to those who are saved. Who is good enough for such things?

bwe@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were made dull. Even today, when the old law of God is read, it is as if a cloth still covers it. It is Christ who takes the cloth away.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:18 @ All of us have no cloth over our faces. People can see that we have some of the bright and wonderful light that the Lord has. And we are becoming brighter and brighter, more and more like him. It is the Lord, the Spirit, who does this.

bwe@2Corinthians:4:13 @ We believe the same way as the one who wrote, I believed, and so I talked. We also believe, and so we talk to you.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:5 @ God is the one who has made us ready for this change. He has already given us the Spirit. This is the first part of what we are to receive, and it proves that we will get more.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:11 @ No, we are not praising ourselves again. But we are telling you this so that you may really be proud of us. Then you will be ready to answer people who are proud of themselves. They are proud of the things which can be seen.But in their hearts they have nothing to be proud of.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:14 @ He died for all, so that those who live would not live to please themselves. But they should live to please him who gave his life for them and rose again from death.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:17 @ But it is God who has done all this. He sent Christ to make peace with us and to bring us back to himself. Now he has given us the work of bringing other people back to God.

bwe@2Corinthians:6:13 @ I say this as to my own children. You should love us with all your hearts. with those who do not believe. You and they are not equal. How can people who do right, work with those who do not obey God? How can light and darkness be in the same place?

bwe@2Corinthians:6:14 @ How can Christ agree with Belial, the devil? How can a person who believes work with a person who does not believe?

bwe@2Corinthians:6:17 @ I will be your father. And you shall be my sons and daughters. The Lord who is ruler of all says that.

bwe@2Corinthians:7:5 @ But God comforts those who are in trouble, and when Titus came, we were comforted.

bwe@2Corinthians:7:11 @ So, even though I did write to you, it was not for the sake of the man who did wrong. And it was not for the sake of the man who had the wrong done to him. But I wrote so that you would see for yourselves, in the sight of God, how much we care for you.

bwe@2Corinthians:8:15 @ The holy writings say, The person who had plenty did not have too much. And the person who did not have much, had enough. care for you into the heart of Titus that I have.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:6 @ Here is something to remember. The man who plants a little bit will get only a little from it. The man who plants much will get much from it.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:7 @ Everyone should give what he wants in his heart to give. He should be glad to give it, and should not give it because he was forced to give. God loves a person who gives gladly.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:10 @ God is the one who gives seed to plant and bread to eat. He will give you enough to give away and will make it become more and more. Of the good things you do he will give you a big harvest.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:6 @ Only when you all obey, then we are ready to punish anyone who will not obey.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:12 @ We do not want to be like those people who praise themselves. They measure themselves by their own ideas, and look at themselves to see how good they are. When they do that, they are foolish!

bwe@2Corinthians:10:17 @ The holy writings say that the person who is proud should be proud only of the Lord.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:18 @ A man who praises himself is not a man who is good. The man who is really good is the man whom the Lord praises.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:2 @ I love you as God loves you. I see you as a woman who has not been married and I am giving you to be the wife of a husband. That husband is Christ.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:15 @ So it is not strange if his workers also try to make themselves look like Gods workers who do right. They will come to an end like the work they do! think that I am foolish. But if you do, then please listen to me as if I were foolish. I also want to do a little talking about myself.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they workers for Christ? (I talk like one who is not in his right mind.) I am a better worker. I have worked much harder. I have been in prison more often. I have been beaten many, many times. Often I have almost died.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:25 @ I have travelled much. I have crossed bad rivers. I have gone where men might steal my things. The Jews and those who are not Jews have troubled me. I have been in hard places in the city. I have had hard times in the desert. I have had hard times on the water. I have had hard times among those who should have been my brothers and were not.

bwe@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have told you before, when I visited you the second time. And I tell you again now, while I am not there. When I come again, I will punish those who did wrong before and the others who have done wrong since.

bwe@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Now, my brothers, in closing I say, Goodbye. Be what you should be. Listen to what I say. Be good to each other. Agree with one another. Live in peace with one another. And the God who gives love and peace will be with you.

bwe@Galatians:1:1 @ I am Paul the apostle, a messenger from God. Men did not call me to be an apostle. Men did not make me an apostle. Jesus Christ and God the Father made me an apostle. It was the same God the Father who raised Jesus from death.

bwe@Galatians:1:2 @ All the Christian brothers who are with me and I, send greetings. To the churches in the province of Galatia:

bwe@Galatians:1:6 @ I am very much surprised. It is so soon, and you are leaving God who called you by the love of Christ. Instead you are listening to another good news.

bwe@Galatians:1:9 @ We have said it before, and I say it again now. A curse be on any one who tells you a kind of good news which is not the good news we have already told you.

bwe@Galatians:1:12 @ No man told it to me. No man taught it to me. But it was Jesus Christ who showed it to me.

bwe@Galatians:1:16 @ God wanted to show his Son to me so that I might tell people who are not Jews about him. I did not go and ask any other person about the good news.

bwe@Galatians:1:17 @ I did not go to Jerusalem to the men who were apostles before I was. But I went away into the country of Arabia. Then afterwards, I came back to the city of Damascus.

bwe@Galatians:1:23 @ They only heard people say, This is the man who used to trouble us and he is now telling others to believe what he once tried to stop.

bwe@Galatians:2:2 @ God showed me that I should go. And I told them about the good news which I tell to people who are not Jews. I told those who seemed to be church leaders when I was alone with them. I did not want my work to come to nothing-the work I had done or the work I was doing.

bwe@Galatians:2:4 @ But some men got in who were not true brothers. They came in secretly to spy on us to find out things about us. They did not want us to be free the way Christ Jesus has made us free. But they wanted to make us obey the old laws again <FI>which were given to Moses by God<Fi>.

bwe@Galatians:2:6 @ Those men who seemed to be leaders did not teach me anything new. It does not matter to me who they were. God does not love some people more than others.

bwe@Galatians:2:7 @ No, the leaders saw that God called me to take the good news to those who are not circumcised <FI>not Jews<Fi>, just as he called Peter to take the good news to those who are circumcised <FI>Jews<Fi>.

bwe@Galatians:2:8 @ The same God who made Peter an apostle to the Jews made me an apostle to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Galatians:2:9 @ The leaders saw that God had blessed me. James, Peter, and John seemed to be leaders in the church. They saw that God had blessed me. So they accepted Barnabas and me as fellow workers. They agreed that we should go to the people who were not Jews and they themselves would go to the Jews.

bwe@Galatians:2:12 @ Here is what happened. Peter ate with those who were not Jews. Then some men came whom James had sent. When they came he stopped eating with those who were not Jews. He was afraid of what the Jews might think.

bwe@Galatians:2:13 @ All the other Jewish Christians did the same as Peter did. They acted as if it was not right to eat with those who were not Jews. Even Barnabas did the same.

bwe@Galatians:2:14 @ But I saw they were not doing right. They were not obeying the true teaching of the good news. So I said to Peter in front of them all, You are a Jew. But you live the way people do who are not Jews. How then can you force those who are not Jews to live the way the Jews do?

bwe@Galatians:2:15 @ We ourselves were born Jews. We are not of those who still follow wrong ways, those who are not Jews.

bwe@Galatians:2:17 @ We came to Christ to be put right with God. That showed us how much we had been bad men. Was it Christ who made us bad men? No, surely not!

bwe@Galatians:3:1 @ O you Galatians, have you no sense at all? Who has fooled you? You knew, just as if you had seen him with your own eyes, that Jesus Christ was killed on a cross.

bwe@Galatians:3:7 @ You see then, the people who believe God are children of Abraham.

bwe@Galatians:3:8 @ The holy writings say that he will put people right with himself if they believe him, even those who are not Jews. It was written down before God did it. The holy writings told the good news to Abraham ahead of time. It said, God will make you a blessing to all nations and people.

bwe@Galatians:3:9 @ Abraham believed God and was blessed. And so those who believe God are blessed too, along with him.

bwe@Galatians:3:10 @ A curse is on all people who are trying to become good by obeying the law. The holy writings say, Everyone is cursed who does not always obey everything that is written in the book of the law and do it.

bwe@Galatians:3:11 @ Now, you can see this. No man is called a good man by God because he obeys the law. The holy writings say, Those who are right with God shall live by faith.

bwe@Galatians:3:12 @ The law does not ask people to believe. It says, He who obeys the laws will live because of them.

bwe@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ has saved us from the curse which the law put on us. He took the curse on himself. It should have been on us. The holy writings say, A curse be on everyone who hangs on a tree!

bwe@Galatians:3:14 @ Christ Jesus did this so that those who are not Jews will have the blessing which Abraham had. He did this so that when we believe, we will receive the Spirit who was promised to us.

bwe@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then was the law made? God gave it after he made the promise, because so many people were doing what was wrong. The law was to be in power only until the Son came, the one to whom the promise was made. The law was handed down by Gods angels with the help of a middle man.

bwe@Galatians:3:20 @ To need the help of a middle man there must be more than one person making the agreement. But God is the only one who made the promise.

bwe@Galatians:3:22 @ But the holy writings say it is like this. The whole world is in prison, kept there by the wrong things they have done. This was done so that people who believe in Jesus Christ would have the blessing. This blessing was promised to those who believe.

bwe@Galatians:3:27 @ All of you who have been baptised into Christ have taken Christ as your own.

bwe@Galatians:3:28 @ There is no longer any difference between a Jew and one who is not a Jew; between a slave and a free man; between a man and a woman. When you are in the body of Christ Jesus, you are all alike.

bwe@Galatians:4:2 @ He still has people who take care of him and he must obey them until the time set by his father.

bwe@Galatians:4:5 @ God sent him to set the people free who were under the law. God sent him so that we would receive our rights as sons of God.

bwe@Galatians:4:27 @ The holy writings say, The woman who has not had a child, be happy! You who do not feel the pain of bearing a child, open your mouth and shout. The woman who is left alone has more children than the woman who has a husband!

bwe@Galatians:4:29 @ Abrahams child who was born as any child is born, troubled the other child who was born by the Spirit. It is that way today.

bwe@Galatians:5:3 @ Again I say to every man who is circumcised, he must obey all the law.

bwe@Galatians:5:7 @ You were doing well. Who stopped you from doing what is right?

bwe@Galatians:5:8 @ God calls you but he is not the one who made you change your minds.

bwe@Galatians:5:10 @ The Lord makes me sure that you will not think any other way. But the teacher who is troubling your minds will be punished. It does not matter who he is.

bwe@Galatians:5:14 @ This one law is the whole law: Love your neighbour as you love yourself.

bwe@Galatians:5:19 @ It is easy to see the wrong things people want to do. Both married people and those who are not married commit adultery. People make themselves unclean because of their wrong use of sex. They do things they should be ashamed of doing.

bwe@Galatians:5:21 @ They want what other people have. They even kill. They drink too much strong drink. They like to take part in loud drinking and dancing. They do other things like these. I have told you before and I tell you again. Those who do these things will not be in the kingdom of God.

bwe@Galatians:5:23 @ Those who belong to Christ Jesus have stopped doing the wrong things they want to do. They have stopped them just as if they were killed on a cross. And they have even stopped wanting to do them.

bwe@Galatians:6:1 @ My brothers, perhaps a man has done something wrong. If so, you who are strong in the Spirit must help him to do the right thing again. Help him in a gentle way. Take care yourself, that you are not tried and will want to do wrong.

bwe@Galatians:6:3 @ A man who thinks that he is an important person when he is not, that man fools himself.

bwe@Galatians:6:6 @ People are taught the word of God. They should give some of all the good things they have to those who teach them.

bwe@Galatians:6:8 @ The man who plants the wrong things he wants to do will get death, because of those wrong things. But the person who plants what the Spirit wants him to do will live for ever, because of the Spirit.

bwe@Galatians:6:10 @ So then, when we can, we should do good to all people. But most of all, we should do it to those who are in Gods family.

bwe@Galatians:6:13 @ Even those who are circumcised do not obey the law. But they want you to be circumcised. Then they can be proud that they made you do it.

bwe@Galatians:6:16 @ May all who live by this rule have peace. And may God bless them. They are the true people of Israel and they belong to God.

bwe@Ephesians:1:1 @ I am Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ. It was Gods wish for me to be his messenger. I send greetings to Gods people in the city of Ephesus, to those who believe in Christ Jesus.

bwe@Ephesians:1:6 @ Praise him! His kindness is great and wonderful. We have been accepted by God through Jesus Christ, whom he loves so much.

bwe@Ephesians:1:13 @ You also believed in Christ when you heard the true message. That message is the good news by which you were saved. You received the Holy Spirit whom God had promised. You were marked as belonging to him.

bwe@Ephesians:1:16 @ He is the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father who is very great and wonderful. I ask him to give you a mind that is wise and will understand about him.

bwe@Ephesians:1:18 @ I ask him that you may know the wonderful power he has to do things for us who believe in Christ. His power is very strong.

bwe@Ephesians:1:22 @ The church <FI>all the people who believe in Jesus Christ<Fi> is his body. The church people have everything that Christ has. He is the One who is in everything everywhere.

bwe@Ephesians:2:2 @ At one time you did those wrong things, just like the people around you. You obeyed the ruler who has the power over things in the air. That ruler is the spirit who is working now in the people who do not obey God.

bwe@Ephesians:2:3 @ At one time we too all lived like them. We lived to please ourselves. We did what our bodies and our minds wanted us to do. We were people with whom God was angry, just like other people.

bwe@Ephesians:2:7 @ He did this to show us in all times to come how much he can bless people and how kind he is. It was Jesus Christ who brought this kindness to us.

bwe@Ephesians:2:17 @ He came and said that there is now peace. There is peace for you who were far away from God and for those who were near.

bwe@Ephesians:2:21 @ He is the one who holds the whole house together, and it becomes a holy house belonging to the Lord.

bwe@Ephesians:3:1 @ That is why I, Paul, am a prisoner who belongs to Jesus Christ. It is for the sake of you people who are not Jews.

bwe@Ephesians:3:6 @ This is Gods plan. Those who are not Jews will also share in the blessings of God. They also are a part of the body of Jesus Christ. They also will receive the things God has promised in Jesus Christ through the good news.

bwe@Ephesians:3:8 @ I am less than the least of all Gods people, and yet he blessed me. It is my work to tell those who are not Jews about the wonderful blessings of Christ. There are so many that we cannot know them all.

bwe@Ephesians:3:9 @ God has blessed me so that I might tell all people plainly what his plan is. God, who made all things, did not tell anyone about his plan in all the times in the past.

bwe@Ephesians:3:10 @ Now he wants those who rule and have power in the sky to know how very wise God is. They will know this when they look at the church people.

bwe@Ephesians:4:1 @ I am a prisoner who belongs to the Lord. I beg you, live the way people should live who have been called by God.

bwe@Ephesians:4:10 @ The one who came down is the same one who went up higher than all the heavens. He did this so that he would be everywhere.

bwe@Ephesians:4:15 @ We must say what is true and say it with love. In that way we will grow up in all things to be like Christ, who is the head of this body.

bwe@Ephesians:4:16 @ The whole body is joined and held together by every joint that it has. It is from Christ that the whole body grows as each different part does its work. It grows so that it becomes stronger in love.

bwe@Ephesians:4:17 @ Here then is what the Lord has told me to say. You must not live like the people who do not believe in God. They do not think clearly.

bwe@Ephesians:4:28 @ The person who used to steal must not steal now. But he must do some good work with his own hands. Then he will have something to give to the poor people.

bwe@Ephesians:4:29 @ Do not let any bad words come out of your mouth. But say good things that will help people. Then those who hear you will also be blessed by what you say.

bwe@Ephesians:5:5 @ You know this. There are people who use sex wrongly, and who are always wanting what others have. No such a person has any place in the kingdom of Christ and of God. He is worshipping an idol.

bwe@Ephesians:5:6 @ Do not let anyone fool you by their empty talk. It is because people do these wrong things that God is very angry. He is angry with the people who do not obey him.

bwe@Ephesians:5:8 @ You were in the dark before, but now the Lord has given you light. Live like people who have the light.

bwe@Ephesians:5:9 @ People who have the light do all that is good and right and true.

bwe@Ephesians:5:14 @ So it is said, Wake up, you who are asleep! Rise from death. And Christ will give you light.

bwe@Ephesians:5:15 @ Take care how you live. Do not live like people who are not wise, but live like people who are wise.

bwe@Ephesians:5:28 @ So husbands should love their wives as they love their own bodies. The man who loves his wife loves himself.

bwe@Ephesians:6:8 @ And you who are bosses, be good to your servants also. Do not talk loud, hard words to them. Remember that both their Lord and yours is in heaven. He does not love one person more than another.

bwe@Ephesians:6:11 @ We are not fighting against people of flesh and blood. But we are fighting against rulers and powers whom we cannot see. We are fighting against those who control the darkness of this world, and against bad spirits who have power in the air.

bwe@Ephesians:6:20 @ Tychicus will tell you all about me and what I am doing. He is a brother whom I love and a very good helper in the Lords work.

bwe@Ephesians:6:23 @ May the kindness of God bless all who love our Lord Jesus Christ.

bwe@Philippians:1:1 @ We, Paul and Timothy, are servants of Christ Jesus. We send greetings to all of Gods people who belong to Christ Jesus and who live in the city of Philippi. We send greetings to the leaders of the church people and those who have been chosen to help them.

bwe@Philippians:1:27 @ So whatever happens, live as people who believe the good news of Christ should live. Then, if I come and see you, or if I am away and hear about you, you will be standing strong together in one spirit. With one mind you will be working hard together for the good news.

bwe@Philippians:1:28 @ Do not fear in any way those who are working against you. It is God who shows them they are lost and you are saved.

bwe@Philippians:3:2 @ Watch out for those teachers who are like dogs. Watch out for those teachers who do wrong things. And watch out for those teachers who want you to have the mark of a Jew cut in your bodies.

bwe@Philippians:3:3 @ We have Gods Spirit and we worship God in the Spirit. So we are the people who have the mark of God. Christ Jesus is our reason for being joyful. We do not trust in having a mark cut in our bodies.

bwe@Philippians:3:15 @ All of us who are grown-up Christians should feel this way. And if you do not think this way, God will show you the right way.

bwe@Philippians:3:17 @ My brothers, do as I do, all of you. Look at the people who live the way we have lived.

bwe@Philippians:4:8 @ I taught you, and you learned things from me. You heard the things I said, and you saw the things I did. Do these same things yourselves. Then God who gives peace will be with you.

bwe@Philippians:4:14 @ You people of Philippi know this too. When I first told the good news after I left the country of Macedonia, you were the only church people who helped me. You sent me money to pay my expenses.

bwe@Philippians:4:20 @ Please give my greetings to every one who belongs to Christ Jesus. The Christian brothers who are with me greet you.

bwe@Colossians:1:8 @ Also, it is he who told us of your love in the Spirit.

bwe@Colossians:1:12 @ Thank the Father who has made us ready to be with the people of God who live in his light.

bwe@Colossians:1:15 @ The Son is like God who cannot be seen. He was his Son before anything was made.

bwe@Colossians:1:18 @ He is also the head of the body which is the church <FI>the people who believe in Jesus Christ<Fi>. He is the beginning, the first one to rise from death, so that he would be the first one in everything.

bwe@Colossians:1:20 @ And God chose him to be the one who would bring all things back to himself. God made peace by the blood which Christ gave on his cross. He would bring back all things on earth and in heaven.

bwe@Colossians:1:23 @ But you must keep on believing and stand strong and true. Let nothing shake the hope which the good news brought you. You heard the same good news as is told to everyone in the whole world. I, Paul, was given the work of telling that same good news.

bwe@Colossians:1:26 @ This message is about the secret plan of God. People who lived in all the past times of the world did not know about this plan. But now it has been told to Gods people.

bwe@Colossians:1:27 @ He wanted them to know that his plan is very great and wonderful for those who are not Jews. And this plan is that Christ is in you! He is your hope for all the wonderful things that are to come.

bwe@Colossians:2:1 @ I want you to know how much I care for you and those in the city of Laodicea, and even all those who have never seen me.

bwe@Colossians:2:12 @ You were buried with Christ when you were baptised. You were also raised with him to a new life when you were baptised. You were raised because you believed in the power of God who raised Christ from death.

bwe@Colossians:2:19 @ He is not joined to the real head which is Christ. It is from him that the whole body receives strength and is held together by its joints and muscles. It is from him that the body grows as God makes it grow.

bwe@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not tell lies to one another. You have stopped being the person you used to be who did wrong things.

bwe@Colossians:3:10 @ And now you have become a new person. That new person is always learning more and more until he becomes like God who made him.

bwe@Colossians:3:11 @ In this new person, there is no difference between a Greek and a Jew. There is no difference between a man who is circumcised with the mark of the Jew and a man who is not circumcised. There is no difference between a person from a friendly country or someone from a country which is not friendly. There is no difference between a slave and a person who is free. Christ is everything and is in all of them.

bwe@Colossians:3:25 @ The person who does wrong will be punished for the wrong he has done. God does not love one person more than another.

bwe@Colossians:4:1 @ You who are a boss, do what is right to your servants. You know that you also have a Master in heaven.

bwe@Colossians:4:5 @ Act the right way to people who are not Christians. Make good use of your time.

bwe@Colossians:4:7 @ Tychicus will tell you all about me. He is a brother whom I love. He is a very good helper and works with me in the Lords work.

bwe@Colossians:4:9 @ I am sending Onesimus with him. He is also a good brother whom I love. He is one of you. They will tell you all about everything here.

bwe@Colossians:4:10 @ Here are the people who send you greetings: Aristarchus, who is in prison with me, and Mark, a cousin of Barnabas. I have already told you to welcome him if he comes to you.

bwe@Colossians:4:11 @ Jesus, whose other name is Justus, also sends greetings. These men are the only Jews who are doing Gods work with me. And they have comforted me much.

bwe@Colossians:4:14 @ Luke, the doctor whom I love, and Demas also greet you.

bwe@Colossians:4:15 @ Give my greetings to the brothers at Laodicea, and also to Nympha and the church people who meet in her house.

bwe@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ They tell us how glad you were to see us. They tell us about how you left your idols and turned to God. You worship the God who is the living and true God.

bwe@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ And you wait for his Son to come again from heaven. God raised his Son Jesus from death. It is Jesus who saves us from Gods great anger which is to come.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But God chose us to tell people the good news. And so we do not speak to please men, but to please God. He is the one who knows what is in our hearts.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ They try to stop us from talking to those people who are not Jews. They do not want them to be saved. So they are always doing wrong things. And now at last, God has become very angry with them. have been away from you for a short time in body, but not in heart. We wanted very much to see you face to face, and we tried hard to come.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ You are ones of whom we are proud. You make us happy.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ Do not have sex with a person you are not married to. Control your strong feelings. Do not act like the people who do not know God.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ Do not do wrong to your Christian brother by taking his wife for yourself. The Lord will surely punish all those who do wrong in these things. We have already told you that and made it very clear.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ So anyone who does not obey is not just disobeying a man, but he is disobeying God. And it is God who has given us his Holy Spirit.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ And you do love all the Christian brothers who are in the whole country of Macedonia. But we beg you, brothers, love them more and more.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ Then people who do not belong to the church will respect you. And you will not need help from anyone. here is something I want you to know about those who have died. You should not cry for them like people cry who have no hope.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ We believe that Jesus died and rose again. And because of what Jesus did, God will bring back with him those who have died.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ We tell you what the Lord said. We who are still alive when the Lord comes, will not go ahead of those who have died.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ Then we who are still alive on earth will be caught up together with those who were dead. We will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And then we will be with the Lord forever!

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ You your-selves surely know that the day of the Lord will come just like a person who comes to steal in the night.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you, my brothers, are not in the dark. That day should not surprise you like a person who comes to steal.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ So comfort and strengthen one another, just as you are doing. you to respect those who are working among you. They are your leaders in the Lords work, and they tell you what you should do.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ My brothers, we beg you, tell this to people who do not do what they should do. Talk to those who fear, and say something that will make them strong. Help those who are weak. Be patient with all people.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ Do not despise people who speak words from God.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:20 @ May God himself, who gives peace, make you pure and clean. You are set apart and belong only to him. And may your spirit and soul and body all together be kept free from fault until our Lord Jesus Christ comes.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:21 @ )It is God who calls you, and he can be trusted. He will surely do what he has said.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ God will do what is right. He will give trouble to those who are troubling you.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ And he will give rest to you who are having troubles, and to us also. He will give this rest when our Lord Jesus comes back from heaven. The Lord Jesus will come with his strong angels in flaming fire.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ He will punish those who do not know God, and those who do not obey the good news of our Lord Jesus.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ This will happen on the day he comes. On that day his people will show how great and wonderful he is. And all those who have believed in him will be surprised at how great he is. That means you also, because you believed what we told you.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Do not let anyone fool you in any way. Before the day of the Lord comes, many people will stop believing God. The Man of Evil will be seen. He is the evil one who will be destroyed for ever.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ And by his bad tricks he will fool people who are lost. They will not love the true message which would have saved them.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ They will all be judged. I mean the people who have not believed in the true message but who wanted to do what is wrong.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ Ask God that we may be saved from bad people who do wrong things. Not everyone believes in Christ.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now, my brothers, we tell you to do this in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Have nothing to do with any lazy brother who is not living the way we taught you.

bwe@1Timothy:1:1 @ I am Paul. I am an apostle of Christ Jesus. God and Christ Jesus told me to be an apostle. God is our Saviour, and Christ is the one who gives us hope.

bwe@1Timothy:1:9 @ He must understand that the law was not made for the man who lives right. It was made for those who do not want any laws over them, and for those who will not obey. It was made for those who do not respect God, and those who are bad people. It was made for those who do not respect anything that is holy or belongs to God. It was made for those who beat their fathers or mothers, and for those who kill people.

bwe@1Timothy:1:10 @ It was made for those who use sex in the wrong way and for men who have sex with other men. It was made for those who steal people, for those who tell lies, for those who make a promise that is not true, and for any other thing that is not right.

bwe@1Timothy:1:12 @ I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who gave me power to tell the good news. I thank him because he believed he could trust me, and he chose me for this work.

bwe@1Timothy:1:16 @ Jesus Christ wanted to show that he is very, very patient. And so he was kind to me who was the worst. He did this so that others would believe in him and live for ever.

bwe@1Timothy:1:17 @ Give honour and praise for ever and ever to the one who is King for ever. He will never die. He cannot be seen. He is the only God. Yes, he is!

bwe@1Timothy:2:5 @ There is one God. There is also one man who can open the way between God and all people. That man is Christ Jesus.

bwe@1Timothy:2:7 @ I was chosen to tell about this and to be an apostle. I am telling the truth. I am not lying. I was chosen to teach people who are not Jews. I must teach them to believe and to know what is true.

bwe@1Timothy:2:10 @ But women should busy themselves with good works. This is the right thing for women who say they worship God.

bwe@1Timothy:3:7 @ People who are not church people must also speak well of a church leader, so that he will not fall into the devils trap.

bwe@1Timothy:3:8 @ In the same way, the leaders helpers must be men whom people respect. They must not say one thing one time and something different another time. They must not drink too much wine. They must not try to get rich in wrong ways.

bwe@1Timothy:3:11 @ In the same way, their wives must be women whom people respect. They must not tell lies about anyone. They must be able to control themselves. They must live so that people can trust them in all things.

bwe@1Timothy:4:3 @ They will teach people that they should not marry. They will teach them not to eat some kinds of food. God made the food and he wanted people to take it and thank him for it. Those who believe and know what is true do this.

bwe@1Timothy:4:10 @ That is why we work hard and put up with troubles. We trust in the living God who came to save all people. He makes a way for those who believe in him.

bwe@1Timothy:4:12 @ Do not let anyone despise you because you are a young man. Show those who believe how they should live. Show them by the way you talk. Show them by the way you live. Show them by the way you love. Show them how to believe by the way you believe. Show them how to live a clean life by the way you live a clean life.

bwe@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take care of yourself and what you teach. Keep on doing this. If you do, you will save yourself and those who listen to you.

bwe@1Timothy:5:3 @ Help widow women, whose husbands are dead, if they have no one to help them.

bwe@1Timothy:5:5 @ A widow who has no one to help her, and is alone, trusts in God. Day and night she talks to God and asks him for the things she needs.

bwe@1Timothy:5:6 @ But a woman who spends her time in pleasing herself is really dead, even while she still lives.

bwe@1Timothy:5:8 @ A man must care for his own people. At least he must care for his family. If he does not care for them, he shows that he does not believe in God. He is worse than one who has never believed.

bwe@1Timothy:5:9 @ A widow who is over sixty years old, may be chosen to help the church people. But she must have been the wife of one husband.

bwe@1Timothy:5:10 @ People must speak well of the good works she has done. Has she brought up children? Has she been kind to strangers and cared for them in her house? Has she washed the feet of Gods people? Has she helped people who were in trouble? Has she done every kind of good thing to help people?

bwe@1Timothy:5:16 @ Do any Christians have in their families women whose husbands are dead? If they do, they should help them. The church people should not have to care for them. Then the church can help the women who have no one to help them.

bwe@1Timothy:5:17 @ The leaders of the church people who rule well should be given greater honour and reward. At least do this for those who work hard in speaking and teaching.

bwe@1Timothy:5:18 @ The holy writings say, You may not tie the mouth of a cow when it is walking on the grain to beat it out. And also, The man who works should be paid for it.

bwe@1Timothy:5:20 @ Talk to those who live a wrong life and tell them to stop it. Talk to them in front of all the church members. Then the others will be afraid to do it.

bwe@1Timothy:6:2 @ Those who work for Christian masters should not take life easy just because the person they work for is a Christian. They should work all the better because they are loved by them. Teach these things and tell people to do them.

bwe@1Timothy:6:3 @ Is there anyone who teaches something different? Or is there anyone who does not agree with the true words of our Lord Jesus Christ? Or does he not agree with teaching about the things of God?

bwe@1Timothy:6:9 @ People who want to be rich have trouble. They get caught in a trap. They want many foolish things which are wrong for them. Because of this, men are lost and punished for ever.

bwe@1Timothy:6:13 @ Now we stand before God who gives life to all things. We stand before Christ who said what was right when he was in court before Pontius Pilate. I tell you to do this.

bwe@1Timothy:6:18 @ Tell the rich people to do good. Tell them to do many good things. Tell them to give to other people, and to help those who are in need.

bwe@2Timothy:1:10 @ But now he has made it real through the coming of Jesus Christ who saves. He has put death out of the way. He has shown people can have everlasting life by telling them the good news.

bwe@2Timothy:1:11 @ I have been chosen to tell that good news. I have been chosen to go out and teach it to those who are not Jews.

bwe@2Timothy:1:12 @ That is why I have this trouble. But I am not ashamed of it because I know the one whom I have trusted. And I am sure he is able to keep safe what I have trusted to him. He will keep it safe until that great day when he comes again.

bwe@2Timothy:1:14 @ Keep safe that good thing which was trusted to you. The Holy Spirit who lives in us will help you.

bwe@2Timothy:1:15 @ You know that all the men who live in the country of Asia Minor have left me. Phygellus and Hermogenes are among them.

bwe@2Timothy:2:2 @ You and many others heard what I taught. Now you must teach these things to men who can be trusted, men who will be able to teach them to other people also.

bwe@2Timothy:2:4 @ A soldier who is fighting does not live the way other people do. He wants to please the one who chose him.

bwe@2Timothy:2:14 @ Tell people these things again. Tell them before the Lord not to quarrel in their teaching. There is no good in doing that. It upsets the minds of those who listen to them.

bwe@2Timothy:2:19 @ But the truth of God stands strong. It cannot change. These words are sure: The Lord knows the people who belong to him and, Let all those who use the name of the Lord stop their wrong ways.

bwe@2Timothy:2:22 @ Have no part at all in the wrong things that young men like to do. Believe. Have love. Follow what is right. Live at peace. Do these things along with others who have a clean heart and talk to God.

bwe@2Timothy:2:25 @ When he corrects those who are against him, he must do it in a gentle way. It may be that God will turn their hearts to know what is true.

bwe@2Timothy:3:6 @ They are the kind who go quietly into peoples houses. There they get foolish women to believe them. These women know that they have done many wrong things. And they want to do many kinds of wrong things.

bwe@2Timothy:3:8 @ Jannes and Jambres were two men who were very much against Moses. In the same way, these men I am talking about are against what is true. They are men who have wrong thoughts in their minds. They do not believe.

bwe@2Timothy:3:12 @ Yes, all who want to live a good life in Christ Jesus will be troubled by other people.

bwe@2Timothy:3:13 @ Bad men and those who fool other people will grow worse and worse. They will fool other people, and other people will fool them.

bwe@2Timothy:3:14 @ But you, Timothy, must keep on doing the things you have learned. You know they are right. You know who taught them to you.

bwe@2Timothy:3:17 @ In this way a person who belongs to God has all he needs. He is ready for every kind of good work.

bwe@2Timothy:4:1 @ I say this before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge people who are living and people who are dead. I say this to you because he will come back and rule over all.

bwe@2Timothy:4:3 @ The time is coming when people will not listen to good teaching. They will want to listen to the things they like to hear. And they will bring in many teachers who will teach them just what they want to do.

bwe@2Timothy:4:8 @ From now on, my reward is waiting for me, because I have done what is right. The Lord will repay me on the day when he comes back. He judges the right way. I will not be the only one to get a reward from him. But he will repay all those who want very much to see him.

bwe@2Timothy:4:14 @ Alexander, the man who makes things from copper, did many wrong things to me. The Lord will punish him for what he has done.

bwe@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord was with me. He gave me strength to tell the message. All those who are not Jews heard it. And I was saved out of the mouth of the lion.

bwe@2Timothy:4:19 @ Give my greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, and to the people who belong to the house of Onesiphorus.

bwe@Titus:1:3 @ And at the right time he sent men to tell people his word. God, who saves us, trusted me and told me to tell that word.

bwe@Titus:1:8 @ He must hold strongly to the true message which he has been taught. Then he will be able to teach other people what is right. And he will be able to answer people who talk against it.

bwe@Titus:1:9 @ There are many people who do not obey Gods truth. They talk about things that do no good, and they fool people by it. The Jewish leaders do this very much.

bwe@Titus:1:10 @ You must put a stop to their talking. They stop whole families from believing in Christ because they teach things which they have no right to teach. They teach because they want to get paid for it, even though it is wrong.

bwe@Titus:1:13 @ They must not use the old Jewish stories. They must not use the rules which were made by men who do not believe what is true.

bwe@Titus:1:14 @ All things are clean to those who have a clean mind. But nothing is clean to those who do wrong things and do not believe. Their minds and their hearts are full of wrong things.

bwe@Titus:2:2 @ Tell the older men that they must not drink too much wine. They must be men whom people respect. They must be wise. They must believe what is true. They must be loving and patient.

bwe@Titus:2:8 @ Be sure that what you say is true, so that no one can say anything against it. Then anyone who is against us will be made ashamed because he can find nothing wrong to say about us.

bwe@Titus:2:13 @ All this is while we wait and hope to see the one who brings blessing. We are waiting for our great God to come in Jesus Christ. He is the One who will save us. He is wonderful!

bwe@Titus:2:14 @ Christ gave himself for us so that he might make us free from all that is wrong. He gave himself to make us into clean people who belong to him and want to do good.

bwe@Titus:3:4 @ God who saves us showed how kind and good he is.

bwe@Titus:3:8 @ These are true words. And I want you to tell the people these things. Then those who have believed God will try to do good things. These things are right and help people.

bwe@Titus:3:9 @ Have nothing to do with: foolish quarrels; lists of people who lived long ago; those who make trouble and argue about the law. These things do not help people and are good for nothing.

bwe@Titus:3:10 @ Talk to any who do not believe right. Talk to them about it once or twice. Then, if they will not listen, have nothing more to do with them.

bwe@Titus:3:13 @ Our people should learn to spend their time in doing good things to help people who are poor. In that way, our people will not waste their time. Greet those who believe as we do and who love us. God bless you all.

bwe@Philemon:1:2 @ We also send greetings to our sister Apphia; to Archippus who is worker in Gods army as we are; and to the people who meet as a church in your house.

bwe@Philemon:1:16 @ Now he is not like a slave who must work for you. He is better than a slave. He is a Christian brother and you will love him. I love him very much. But you will love him even more because he belongs to you and he is a Christian.

bwe@Hebrews:1:2 @ In these last days, he talked to us through his Son. God chose him to be the one to whom he would give all things. God also made the world by this Son.

bwe@Hebrews:1:9 @ You have loved what is good and you have hated what is wrong. That is why God has poured out happiness on you, more than on those who are with you.

bwe@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are not all the angels spirits that help? They are sent out to help the people who will be saved.

bwe@Hebrews:2:2 @ What the angels said proved to be true. Every one who broke the law, and who did not obey it, was punished as he should be punished.

bwe@Hebrews:2:3 @ If that is so, then we will not get away without being punished. We will be punished if we forget or throw away this wonderful way to be saved. It was the Lord who first told people how to be saved. Then those who heard him told us the true way.

bwe@Hebrews:2:10 @ Everything was made for God and by God. It seemed good to him that Jesus life should be made complete, by going through the hard things that happened to him. This was because Jesus leads many people to heaven as Gods children. And he is the one who saves them.

bwe@Hebrews:2:11 @ Jesus, who makes people holy, and those who are made holy, all have one Father in heaven. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them his brothers.

bwe@Hebrews:2:12 @ He said, I will tell my brothers about you. I will sing praise about you among those who gather together for worship.

bwe@Hebrews:2:16 @ Jesus did not come to help angels. He came to help people who were born in Abrahams family.

bwe@Hebrews:2:17 @ So he had to be made like his brothers in every way. Then he could be a high priest to make a way to God for them, a priest who was kind and true. He could make it possible for God to forgive people for the wrong things they had done.

bwe@Hebrews:2:18 @ He had a very hard time when he was tested. But because he was tested, he is able to help people who are tested.

bwe@Hebrews:3:3 @ But Jesus is much greater than Moses-as the one who builds a house is greater than the house itself.

bwe@Hebrews:3:4 @ Every house is built by someone, but God is the one who builds all things.

bwe@Hebrews:3:16 @ Who were the people who heard him and yet made him very angry? It was all the people whom Moses led out of the country of Egypt.

bwe@Hebrews:3:17 @ With whom was God angry for forty years? He was angry with the people who had done wrong. And they died in the desert.

bwe@Hebrews:3:18 @ Who were the people God said would never go into his resting place? They were the people who would not listen to him.

bwe@Hebrews:4:3 @ But we who believe, will go into that resting place of God. It is as God said, When I was angry, I said, "They will never go into my resting place." He said this even though his work had been finished ever since he had made the world.

bwe@Hebrews:4:6 @ So that means some people will go in. But the people who first heard the good news about it did not go in. They did not believe it.

bwe@Hebrews:4:7 @ So he chose another day called Today. He spoke through David many years later, who said, Today, when you hear his voice, do not make your hearts hard.

bwe@Hebrews:4:10 @ The person who goes into Gods resting place will rest after doing his work, just as God rested after doing his work.

bwe@Hebrews:4:14 @ We have a great high priest who has gone into heaven. He is Jesus, the Son of God. Because we have such a great high priest, let us hold on to the things we believe.

bwe@Hebrews:4:15 @ We have a high priest who can feel with us when we are weak. He has been tested in every way, just as we are. But he did not do anything wrong.

bwe@Hebrews:5:2 @ Such a high priest can be kind to people who do not know what is right and who do wrong. He knows how to share in the suffering of others because he himself is weak.

bwe@Hebrews:5:5 @ So Christ did not choose himself to be a high priest. But he was chosen by the One who said to him, You are my Son, and I am your Father today.

bwe@Hebrews:5:7 @ When Jesus was a man, he talked to God who was able to save him from death. He called loudly to him with tears. God heard him because he honoured and respected God.

bwe@Hebrews:5:9 @ When he became perfect, he saved for ever all who obeyed him.

bwe@Hebrews:5:13 @ Anyone who takes milk does not understand the message about which things are right.

bwe@Hebrews:5:14 @ But meat is for people who are grown up. It is for people who have trained their minds to know the difference between what is good and what is bad.

bwe@Hebrews:6:6 @ If people who were like that leave their faith in Christ, they cannot come to God again. They themselves nail Gods Son up on the cross again. They are holding him up to shame before everyone.

bwe@Hebrews:6:7 @ The ground drinks the water that often rains on it. It makes plants grow for the people who take care of it. And God blesses that ground.

bwe@Hebrews:6:9 @ This is the way we talk. But dear people, we are sure that better things are true about you. Yes, you show all the good ways of people who have been saved from their wrong ways.

bwe@Hebrews:6:12 @ Do not give up. But be like the people who get what God has promised. They believe God and keep on believing for a long time.

bwe@Hebrews:6:16 @ When men make a promise, they ask someone to hear it who is greater than they are. When someone great has heard a promise, it stops any quarrel about it.

bwe@Hebrews:7:1 @ Melchizedek was king of the city of Salem. He was a priest of God who is the greatest of all. Melchizedek met Abraham when Abraham came back from killing some bad kings. And Melchizedek blessed him.

bwe@Hebrews:7:2 @ Abraham divided all that he took away from the kings into ten parts. He gave Melchizedek one part. First, the name Melchizedek means the king who is true and right with God. Then he was king of Salem. That means king of peace.

bwe@Hebrews:7:5 @ The sons of Levi, who are priests, have the right by law to take a tenth of what the people have. These people are their own brothers. They also are Abrahams children.

bwe@Hebrews:7:6 @ But Melchizedek was not from Levis family. Yet he took a tenth of what Abraham had. And he blessed Abraham, to whom God made the promise.

bwe@Hebrews:7:7 @ Everyone knows this is true. The person who is blessed is not so great as the person who blesses him.

bwe@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here, priests take their tenth, but they are people who will die one day. But Melchizedek, who took his tenth, never dies. The holy writings say it is so.

bwe@Hebrews:7:9 @ And we say that Levi, the priest who takes the tenth from the people, gave his tenth through Abraham.

bwe@Hebrews:7:11 @ It was while the sons of Levi were priests that the law was made for the people. If those priests were good enough, why would another priest need to come who was like Melchizedek? Why would he not be like Aaron?

bwe@Hebrews:7:15 @ You can understand it even better when another priest comes who is like Melchizedek.

bwe@Hebrews:8:1 @ The real point of what we are saying is this. We now have a high priest who sits beside Gods throne or chief chair in heaven.

bwe@Hebrews:8:4 @ If he were still on earth, he would not be a priest. There are priests on earth already who offer gifts the way the law says.

bwe@Hebrews:8:6 @ But Christ has been given a much better work, because he is the man who is between God and men in making an agreement. This is a much better agreement. It was made by better promises.

bwe@Hebrews:9:13 @ The priest takes the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes from a young cow that has been burned. He puts this on the people who have done wrong things. This makes their bodies clean.

bwe@Hebrews:9:14 @ If the blood of animals can do that, then the blood of Christ will clean our hearts much better. Christ gave himself to God as the sacrifice. He did this by the Spirit who lives for ever. He was a perfect sacrifice. He will clean our hearts from useless acts of worship. Then we can serve the living God.

bwe@Hebrews:9:15 @ That is why he is the middle man of a new agreement. He died and paid for the wrong things that were done under the first agreement. Because he is a middle man, those people who are called by God can have what he promised. This will belong to them for ever.

bwe@Hebrews:9:16 @ A person can say who will get his things when he dies. He writes this agreement down. Before anyone can have them, it must be proved that the person has died.

bwe@Hebrews:9:17 @ The agreement has no power until the one who made it has died. It has no power as long as the one who made it is living.

bwe@Hebrews:9:25 @ Christ did not have to offer himself as a sacrifice many times. He is not like the high priest who went into the Holy Place every year and took blood that was not his own blood.

bwe@Hebrews:9:28 @ So Christ gave himself as a sacrifice only once. He took on himself the wrong things many people have done. He will come a second time. But he will not come to do anything about the wrong things people have done. He will come to save those who are looking and waiting for him.

bwe@Hebrews:10:2 @ If the law could make people all right, they would stop making sacrifices. The people who come to worship would be made clean for all time, and they would not remember the wrong things they had done.

bwe@Hebrews:10:14 @ By one sacrifice Christ has made right for ever all those people who are being made holy.

bwe@Hebrews:10:21 @ Also, we have a high priest who has charge of Gods people.

bwe@Hebrews:10:27 @ But we will be judged, and that makes us fear. Gods anger will be like a very hot fire that will burn up those who are against him.

bwe@Hebrews:10:28 @ Any man who broke the law of Moses was killed, if two or three people proved that he had broken the law. He will not be forgiven.

bwe@Hebrews:10:29 @ But the person who should have much bigger punishment is the one who turns against the Son of God. That person was made holy by the blood of the new agreement and then calls it nothing. He no longer honours and respects the Spirit who has been so kind to him.

bwe@Hebrews:10:30 @ We know God who has said, I am the one who will punish people. I will repay them. Also, The Lord will judge his people.

bwe@Hebrews:10:33 @ Sometimes it was because people said and did wrong things to you and everybody saw it. And sometimes it was because you stood with others who had wrong things done to them.

bwe@Hebrews:10:34 @ You shared in the troubles of those who were in prison. When your things were taken from you, you were happy. You knew that you had better things in heaven, things that would always belong to you.

bwe@Hebrews:10:37 @ The holy writings say In a little while, the one who is to come will come. He will not wait any longer.

bwe@Hebrews:10:39 @ We are not the people who turn back and so are lost. But we are people who believe, and so we are saved.

bwe@Hebrews:11:6 @ If a person does not believe God, he cannot please him. Anyone who comes to God must believe that God is real. And he must believe that God will bless those who try to find him. God will reward a person, if he really tries to find God.

bwe@Hebrews:11:14 @ People who say such things mean they are looking for a country which will be their own.

bwe@Hebrews:11:27 @ He believed God and left Egypt. He was not afraid of the kings anger. He was strong because he saw the one who cannot be seen.

bwe@Hebrews:11:28 @ He believed God and obeyed his law about the Passover Feast, and put blood on the door posts. He did this so that the angel who killed the oldest sons of the Egyptians, would pass over. Then he would not kill the oldest sons in the families of the Jews.

bwe@Hebrews:11:31 @ Rahab was a woman who used her body wrongly for sex to get money. But she believed in God, so she did not die with the people who did not believe in God. This was when the men came to spy out her country. She took them into her house in peace.

bwe@Hebrews:11:34 @ The big, hot fire did not burn them. They got away from men who wanted to kill them with long knives or swords. They were weak, but they became strong. They became very strong to fight. They drove away the armies of their enemies.

bwe@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women had children who died and were raised to life again. Some people allowed themselves to be beaten to death. They would not go free because they wanted to rise again to a better life.

bwe@Hebrews:12:7 @ Do not give up when you are punished. God is treating you like sons. Is there a son who has never been punished by his father?

bwe@Hebrews:12:11 @ At the time a person is punished, he is not glad. He is sad. But after it is over, there is peace. Then those who are trained by it do what is right.

bwe@Hebrews:12:23 @ You have come to the church people. They are Gods first sons, and their names are written in heaven. You have come to God who is the judge of all people. You have come to the spirits of good people who have been made right.

bwe@Hebrews:12:24 @ You have come to Jesus who is the middle man of a new agreement. You have come to the place where the spilling of his blood has more power than Abels.

bwe@Hebrews:12:25 @ Take care that you listen to God who is talking now. The people were punished when they would not listen to the One who talked on earth. And we will be punished much worse if we will not listen to the One who talks from heaven.

bwe@Hebrews:13:2 @ Take strangers to your home and care for them. Some people who have done this found out the strangers were angels.

bwe@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in prison as if you were in prison with them. And remember those who are having troubles, as if you were having the same troubles.

bwe@Hebrews:13:4 @ Everyone must respect marriage. And the bed must be kept clean. God will punish those who use their bodies for wrong sex.

bwe@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not listen to all kinds of different teaching and strange things. It is better to have a heart that is strong because of Gods blessing than a heart that is thinking about different kinds of food. Different kinds of food do not help people who put their trust in them.

bwe@Hebrews:13:10 @ We have a sacrifice. But priests who serve God on earth have no right to eat from this sacrifice.

bwe@Hebrews:13:16 @ But do not forget to do good things for people, and to give what you have to those who need it. These are sacrifices that please God.

bwe@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all of Gods people. Those who belong to the country of Italy send you greetings.

bwe@James:1:6 @ But when you ask, you must believe that God will do it. You must not doubt and think, Perhaps God will not do it. A person who doubts is like a wave on the sea. The wind drives it this way and that way.

bwe@James:1:9 @ A Christian brother who is poor should be glad: he is in a high place now he is a Christian.

bwe@James:1:10 @ A Christian brother who is rich should be glad: he is in a low place now he is a Christian. A rich man will pass away like a flower on the grass.

bwe@James:1:12 @ God will bless any man who is strong to take his trouble, when he is being tested. When he has proved he is strong, he will live for ever. That is what the Lord has promised to those who love him.

bwe@James:1:13 @ No one who wants to do something wrong should say, God is trying to make me do this wrong thing. God cannot do anything wrong.

bwe@James:1:23 @ Anyone who just listens to the word, and does not obey it, is like a man who looks at his face in a looking glass.

bwe@James:1:25 @ But there is a law that is all right. It sets people free from their old ways. Anyone who looks into that law and remembers it, is happy because he obeys the law. He does not just listen to the law and forget it, but he obeys what the law says.

bwe@James:1:27 @ This is what God the Father wants. It is clean and right. Go and help those who have no father and mother. Go and help widow women whose husbands are dead. These people have troubles. And keep yourself clean from the wrong things in the world.

bwe@James:2:3 @ You look at the man who wears fine clothes. And you say to him, Sit here on this good chair. But you say to the poor man, Stand over there, or you say, Sit on the floor by my feet.

bwe@James:2:5 @ Listen, my dear brothers. God has chosen people who are poor in this world. They believe very much. They will have a place in the kingdom which he has promised to give to those who love him.

bwe@James:2:6 @ But you made the poor man ashamed. Is it not the rich people who trouble you? Are not they the ones who take you to court?

bwe@James:2:7 @ Are not they the ones who say wrong things about the good name you have?

bwe@James:2:10 @ Anyone who obeys the law, but then breaks one of the laws, has broken all the laws.

bwe@James:2:12 @ There is a law that makes people free. It is the law of showing kindness. Always talk and live like men who will be judged by that law.

bwe@James:2:13 @ When God judges, he will not be kind to a person who has not been kind. It is better to be kind than it is to judge people.

bwe@James:3:1 @ My brothers, not many of you should be teachers. You know that we who teach will be punished more than other people.

bwe@James:3:2 @ We all do many wrong things. Any man who never says anything wrong is right in every way. He is able to make his whole body do what is right.

bwe@James:3:3 @ We put a piece of iron in the mouths of horses so they will obey us. Then we can make their whole bodies go where we want them to go.

bwe@James:3:6 @ The tongue is like a fire. It is like a whole world of trouble. It is a part of our body. And it makes our whole body bad. It burns up our whole life. And the fire that makes the tongue burn comes from hell.

bwe@James:3:13 @ Who among you is wise and knows about things? He should show what he knows by his good life. He will not be proud because he is wise.

bwe@James:3:14 @ Are you a person who is very jealous? In your hearts you want to be better than others? Then stop being proud of yourself. Do not say what is not true.

bwe@James:3:18 @ People who do not quarrel have peace. When there is peace, there is a good life.

bwe@James:4:4 @ You people promised God you would be true to him, but you did not stay true! Do you not know that if you love the world you hate God? Anyone who wants to be a lover of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

bwe@James:4:6 @ But God helps you even more than that. That is why the holy writings say, God fights against those who are proud, but he helps those who are not proud.

bwe@James:4:11 @ My brothers, do not say wrong things about each other. A man who says wrong things about his brother or judges his brother is saying wrong things about Gods law and he is judging Gods law. If you judge the law, you are not obeying the law, but you are a judge.

bwe@James:4:12 @ God made the law and he is the judge. And he is the one who can save you or kill you. Who are you that you should judge your neighbour?

bwe@James:5:4 @ Listen! Men worked in your fields to cut your grain and you did not pay them! That money shouts against you. The men who cut your harvest have called out to the Lord who has power and he has heard them.

bwe@James:5:10 @ My brothers, look at the lives of the prophets of God who spoke in the name of the Lord. See the troubles they had. They took them and waited. Do as they did.

bwe@James:5:11 @ God blesses those who take their troubles quietly and keep on believing. You have heard about Jobs troubles and how he took them. And you have seen what the Lord did for him at the end. The Lord is very kind and helps people.

bwe@James:5:20 @ Do not forget that the person who has brought a man back from his wrong ways will save that man from death. He will cover up many wrong things and be forgiven.

bwe@1Peter:1:12 @ The Spirit showed them that they told these things not for themselves, but for you. And now the men who told you the good news have told you these same things. They spoke by the power of the Holy Spirit who was sent from heaven. Even the angels wanted very much to know about these things.

bwe@1Peter:1:14 @ Be children who obey. Do not be like what you were before you knew Christ. Then you did anything you wanted to do.

bwe@1Peter:1:15 @ But be holy in all the things you do. Be holy because the one who has called you is holy.

bwe@1Peter:2:2 @ Babies who have just been born want milk very much. In the same way, you should want Gods word. That is like good milk. It will make you grow up so that you will then be fully saved.

bwe@1Peter:2:6 @ The holy writings say, Listen, I am placing a stone in Zion. It is the main stone of the house. I have chosen it and it is worth very much. Anyone who believes in him will not be ashamed.

bwe@1Peter:2:7 @ He is worth very much to you who believe in him. But some people do not believe in him. To them he is, the stone that the men who were building would not use. But now it is the chief stone at the corner.

bwe@1Peter:2:10 @ Dear brothers, you are people who do not belong to this world. You are like visitors who are on a journey. I beg you, do not do the things your body wants to do. Those things fight against your soul.

bwe@1Peter:2:11 @ Live good lives among the people who do not believe. They may talk about you as if you do wrong things. But when they see the good things you do, they will praise God on the day he comes to help you.

bwe@1Peter:2:13 @ Obey the rulers because they are sent by him. They are sent to punish those who do wrong things and to praise those who do good things.

bwe@1Peter:2:17 @ Servants, respect and obey your masters in all things. Obey not only those who are good to you. But also obey those who are hard on you.

bwe@1Peter:2:22 @ When people said wrong things to him, he did not say wrong things to them. When he was punished, he did not say, I will do something to you! But he trusted in God who judges what is right.

bwe@1Peter:2:24 @ Like lost sheep, you were going away from God. But now you have come back to the one who takes care of you and helps you.

bwe@1Peter:3:1 @ Wives, respect and obey your husbands in the same way. Then the husbands who do not obey the word of God will want to know God. They will want to know God because their wives live good lives, even though they say nothing about God.

bwe@1Peter:3:5 @ There were holy women long ago who trusted in God. They made themselves nice in this way. They obeyed their husbands.

bwe@1Peter:3:9 @ You must not do wrong things to those who do wrong things to you. You must not say wrong things to those who say wrong things to you. But ask God to bless those people. This is what you have been called to do. Then God will bless you.

bwe@1Peter:3:10 @ The holy writings say,A man who wants to live and have good days must not say wrong things. He must not say anything that is not true.

bwe@1Peter:3:12 @ The Lord watches over those who do good. He listens when they talk to him. But the Lord is against those who do wrong things.

bwe@1Peter:3:13 @ Who will do something bad to you if you want to do what is good?

bwe@1Peter:3:15 @ Worship Christ as Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks you about the hope you have. But be gentle and respect him.

bwe@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ died that once because of our wrong ways. He was good and he died for those who were bad. He did this to bring us to God. His body died, but his spirit had new life.

bwe@1Peter:3:19 @ His spirit went and gave his message to peoples spirits who were in prison.

bwe@1Peter:4:3 @ In the time past you did the same things as people who do not believe God. Let that be enough. You did things you should be ashamed of. You did what you wanted to do. You got drunk. You got into fights. You took part in noisy feasting with dancing. You did wrong by worshipping idols.

bwe@1Peter:4:6 @ That is why the good news was also told to those who are now dead. They will be judged like men who are alive. This was done so that they could live like God in the spirit.

bwe@1Peter:4:17 @ The time has come for God to judge people. Gods people will be judged first. If we are judged first, what will happen at the end to those who do not obey the good news of God?

bwe@1Peter:4:18 @ The holy writings say, If it is hard for a good person to be saved, what will happen to a person who is against God and lives a bad life?

bwe@1Peter:5:4 @ Christ the big Shepherd who takes care of all people is coming. When he comes, he will give you a crown to show that you are great. You will have it for ever.

bwe@1Peter:5:5 @ Also, you who are younger men, obey your leaders. I say to all of you, do not be proud. Do not think you are better than the others. The holy writings say, God fights against proud people, but he helps those who are not proud.

bwe@1Peter:5:12 @ Silas has written this short letter for me. I believe he is a brother who can be trusted. I have written to help you and tell you the true way to have Gods blessing. Stand firm in that way!

bwe@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of love. May all of you who are Christians have peace.

bwe@2Peter:1:1 @ I am Simon Peter. I am a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I send greetings to you who have believed as we have. Believing is worth just as much to you as it is to us. This is because our God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, is right and good.

bwe@2Peter:1:9 @ But the man who does not do these things is like a blind man. He can see only a little way. He has forgotten that he was made clean from the wrong things he used to do.

bwe@2Peter:2:1 @ But prophets who were not true were also among the people of Israel. Also there will be teachers who will not be true among you. They will bring in wrong teaching that leads to death. They will even say that they do not belong to the Master who bought them. And so they will quickly bring themselves to death.

bwe@2Peter:2:4 @ God punished the angels who did wrong. He put them into the darkest part of hell. They must be kept there until the time when they will be judged.

bwe@2Peter:2:5 @ In the days long ago, God punished the world. But he saved Noah who told people what was right. And God saved seven other people. But he made water cover the world full of bad people.

bwe@2Peter:2:10 @ Most of all, he will punish people who do the wrong things they want to do and who will not obey the men who rule over them. They are very bold and proud. They do not fear to say wrong things about those who are great, even about the angels.

bwe@2Peter:2:14 @ They are always looking for women to have sex with them. They never stop their wrong ways. They fool people whose hearts are not strong to do right. They always want more and more money. Gods curse is on them!

bwe@2Peter:2:18 @ They say big and foolish things. They fool people who have just left those who live in wrong ways. They fool them by making them want to do wrong things with their bodies.

bwe@2Peter:3:3 @ Here is the first thing. In the last days, men will come who will make fun of holy things. They will do what they themselves want to do.

bwe@2Peter:3:10 @ The day of the Lord will come like a man who wants to steal. There will be a loud noise and the sky will go away. The elements will melt with fire and they will be gone. The earth and everything on it will be burned up.

bwe@2Peter:3:11 @ That is the way the whole world will go. So think what kind of people you should be! Think how holy and true to God your lives should be!

bwe@1John:1:7 @ Do we live in the light, as God is in the light? Then we belong with others who belong to him. And the blood of the death of Jesus Christ makes us clean from all the wrong things we have done.

bwe@1John:2:1 @ My children, I am writing these things to you so that you will not do wrong things. But if anyone does something wrong, we have a Friend to help us. He speaks to God for us. He is Jesus Christ who does what is right.

bwe@1John:2:10 @ The man who loves his brother lives in the light. There is nothing in him to make him do wrong.

bwe@1John:2:11 @ But the man who hates his brother is in the dark. He lives in the dark. He does not know where he is going, because the darkness has made him blind.

bwe@1John:2:13 @ Fathers, I am writing to you because you know the One who has lived from the beginning. Young men, I am writing to you because you have won the victory over the devil. Children, I write to you because you know Father God.

bwe@1John:2:14 @ Fathers, I write to you because you know him, the one who has lived from the beginning. Young men, I write to you because you are strong. You believe Gods word. You have won the victory over the devil.

bwe@1John:2:17 @ And the world will go away and all the things in it that people like to do. But the person who does what God wants him to do will live for ever.

bwe@1John:2:18 @ Children, we are very near the end of time. You have heard that someone will come who is against Christ. Many who are against Christ have already come. That is how we know that we are very near the end of time.

bwe@1John:2:22 @ Who then is the one who says what is not true? It is the one who says that Jesus is not the Christ. That person is against Christ, because he says there is no Father and there is no Son.

bwe@1John:2:23 @ Everyone who says Jesus is not the Son does not know the Father. And everyone who says Jesus is the Son knows the Father.

bwe@1John:2:26 @ I have written these things to you about the ones who try to fool you.

bwe@1John:2:29 @ You know that he does what is right. So you know also that everyone who does what is right is his child.

bwe@1John:3:3 @ Everyone who has this hope about Christ makes his life holy. He makes his life holy and clean, just as Christ is holy.

bwe@1John:3:4 @ Everyone who does wrong things is breaking Gods law. Doing wrong things is breaking the law.

bwe@1John:3:5 @ You know that Christ came to take away the wrong things people have done. He is the one who has done no wrong.

bwe@1John:3:6 @ Everyone who stays with him does not do wrong things. Everyone who does wrong things has never seen him and has never known him.

bwe@1John:3:7 @ My children, do not let anyone fool you. Anyone who does what is good, is good just as Christ is good.

bwe@1John:3:8 @ Anyone who does what is wrong belongs to the devil. The devil has done what is wrong from the beginning. That is why Gods Son came. He came to stop what the devil does.

bwe@1John:3:9 @ No one who is Gods child does wrong things, because Gods life is in him. And he cannot keep on doing wrong things, because he is Gods child.

bwe@1John:3:10 @ This is how people can know who are Gods children and who are the devils children. Everyone who does not do right is not Gods child. And anyone who does not love his brother is not Gods child.

bwe@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have gone from death to life. We know this because we love the Christian brothers. Anyone who does not love them has not gone from death to life.

bwe@1John:3:15 @ Everyone who hates his brother is like a man who kills a person. And you know that no one who kills a person has life that will live for ever.

bwe@1John:4:1 @ My dear brothers, do not trust every spirit. But test the spirits to see if they belong to God. There are many prophets who are not true who have gone out into the world.

bwe@1John:4:3 @ And every spirit that does not say this about Jesus, does not belong to God. That is the spirit of the one who is against Christ. You have heard that he is coming. And now he is already in the world.

bwe@1John:4:4 @ My children, you belong to God. You have won the victory over those prophets who are not true. You have won because the Spirit that is in you is stronger than the spirit that is in the world.

bwe@1John:4:6 @ But we belong to God. Anyone who knows God listens to us. Anyone who does not belong to God does not listen to us. This is how we know if a spirit is true or not true.

bwe@1John:4:7 @ My dear brothers, we must love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves others is Gods child and he knows God.

bwe@1John:4:8 @ But anyone who does not love others does not know God, because God is love.

bwe@1John:4:16 @ We know and we believe that God loves us. God is love. And anyone who loves others is in God and God is in him.

bwe@1John:4:18 @ Where Gods love is, there is no fear. Gods perfect love takes away fear. It is punishment that makes a person fear. Anyone who has fear does not have perfect love.

bwe@1John:4:20 @ If anyone says, I love God,and he hates his brother, he is telling a lie. If he does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

bwe@1John:4:21 @ God gave us this law. The person who loves God must love his brother also.

bwe@1John:5:1 @ Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is Gods child. And everyone who loves the Father loves his child.

bwe@1John:5:4 @ Everyone who is Gods child wins a victory over the world. We win because we believe God.

bwe@1John:5:5 @ Who wins a victory over the world? It is only the person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

bwe@1John:5:7 @ There are three in heaven who prove it is true. They are the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one.

bwe@1John:5:8 @ There are three on earth who prove it is true. They are the spirit, the water, and the blood. These three all prove the same thing.

bwe@1John:5:10 @ Anyone who believes in Gods Son believes what God says about him. Anyone who does not believe God shows that he thinks what God says is not true. He has not believed what God says about his Son.

bwe@1John:5:12 @ So anyone who has the Son has this life. Anyone who does not have the Son of God does not have this life.

bwe@1John:5:13 @ I have written these things to you who believe on the name of the Son of God. I have written them so that you will know that you will live for ever.

bwe@1John:5:19 @ We know that we belong to God and the whole world belongs to the devil.

bwe@1John:5:20 @ We know that the Son of God has come. He has given us a heart to know him who is true. We belong to him who is true, because we belong to his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God. He has the life that will live for ever.

bwe@2John:1:1 @ From the leader of the church people. I send greetings to the lady whom God has chosen, and to her children. I love you all because you have the truth about Christ. I am not the only one who loves you. All those who know the truth, love you also.

bwe@2John:1:7 @ Many men who fool people have gone out into the world. They believe that Jesus Christ did not come to live as a man with a body. These men belong to the one who fools people. He is against Christ.

bwe@2John:1:9 @ Everyone who goes too far, and does not believe what Christ taught, does not believe God. Anyone who believes what Christ taught, believes both the Father and the Son.

bwe@2John:1:10 @ If anyone comes to you who does not teach what Christ taught, do not take him into your house. Do not even greet him.

bwe@2John:1:11 @ Anyone who greets him helps him in the wrong things he does.

bwe@2John:1:13 @ The children of your sister whom God has chosen send their greetings.

bwe@3John:1:6 @ They went out to do Christs work. And they have not taken any help from people who do not believe in God.

bwe@3John:1:8 @ So if I come, I will show what he is doing. He is saying wrong things about us. And that is not all. He does not take our brothers into his own home. And he stops other people who want to take them in. He will not let them be church members any longer.

bwe@3John:1:9 @ My dear brother, do not do the wrong things people do, but do the good things people do. Anyone who does good things belongs to God. Anyone who does wrong things has never seen God.

bwe@Jude:1:1 @ I am Jude. I am a servant of Jesus Christ and I am a brother of James. I send greetings to you whom God the Father has called. He has loved you and kept you safe for Jesus Christ.

bwe@Jude:1:3 @ My dear brothers, I wanted very much to write to you and tell you how we all are saved. But then I saw that I must write and tell you to hold very strongly to what you do believe. Fight against those who want to change it. The right way to believe has been given to Gods people once for all times.

bwe@Jude:1:5 @ You know all these things for all times. But I want to bring them to your minds. First, the Lord saved his people from the country of Egypt. At a time after that, he killed those who did not believe in him.

bwe@Jude:1:8 @ And yet these men do the same wrong things. They think of and do wrong things with their bodies. They will not obey the men who rule over them. And they say wrong things about those who are great, even about the angels.

bwe@Jude:1:9 @ At one time Michael the chief angel had a quarrel with the devil about who should have the body of Moses. But he did not dare to judge the devil and say wrong things about him. He said, May the Lord tell you to stop!

bwe@Jude:1:11 @ They will have trouble! They have lived like Cain. They have done wrong things for pay like Balaam. They have talked against those who are over them. Korah did that. And so they will die as he did.

bwe@Jude:1:18 @ They said to you, At the end of time, men will come who will make fun of holy things. They will do the wrong things they themselves want to do.

bwe@Jude:1:19 @ These are the men who make people go into different groups in the church meetings. They have only a mans heart. They do not have the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Jude:1:23 @ Pull them out of the fire and save them. There are other people to whom you must be kind, but be careful about it. But you must hate even the clothes that bad people have worn.
