mnt@Romans:1:6 @ among whom you also are called to be Jesus Christs.

mnt@Romans:1:7 @ To all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints. May God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, bless you, and give you peace.

mnt@Romans:1:8 @ First I thank my God, through Jesus Christ, for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout all the world.

mnt@Romans:1:9 @ God is my witness, to whom I render holy service in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how unceasingly I am ever making mention of you in my prayers,

mnt@Romans:1:10 @ always entreating him that now at length, if such be his will, the way may be made clear for me to come to you.

mnt@Romans:1:11 @ For I am longing so to see you, in order to impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established;

mnt@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that I with you may be encouraged by you, each of us by the others faith, yours and mine.

mnt@Romans:1:13 @ I want you to know, brothers, that many a time I have planned to come to you - though until now I have been hindered - so as to have some harvest-fruit among you also, even as I have among the rest of the Gentiles.

mnt@Romans:1:15 @ So much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

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

mnt@Romans:2:2 @ "We know that Gods judgment against those who practise such vices is in accord with the truth," you say?

mnt@Romans:2:3 @ Very well; and do you suppose, you who judge those that practise such vices, and are doing the very same, that you will elude the judgment of God?

mnt@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and long patience? Do you not know that the kindness of God is leading you to repentance?

mnt@Romans:2:5 @ In your hardness and impenitence of heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath on the Day of Wrath, when the righteous judgment of God is revealed.

mnt@Romans:2:17 @ Now if you bear the name of a Jew, and rely upon law, and boast yourself in God,

mnt@Romans:2:18 @ and know his will, and can test the things that differ; if you are instructed out of the Law,

mnt@Romans:2:19 @ and are confident that you yourself are a darkness,

mnt@Romans:2:20 @ an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of the young, because you have in the Law the form of knowledge and of the truth - well then, you who are teaching others, do you ever teach yourself?

mnt@Romans:2:21 @ You who are preaching that a man should not steal, do you practise theft?

mnt@Romans:2:22 @ You who keep saying that a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who hold idols in abhorrence, are you plundering their temples?

mnt@Romans:2:23 @ You who are making your boast in the Law, do you habitually dishonor God through your transgressions of the Law?

mnt@Romans:2:24 @ For the name of God is continually blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, even as the Scripture itself says.

mnt@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision does indeed profit, if you are obedient to the Law; but if you habitually break the Law, your circumcision is become uncircumcision.

mnt@Romans:2:27 @ And shall not those who are physically uncircumcised, but who keep the Law, condemn you who are a breaker of the Law, although you have a written law and circumcision?

mnt@Romans:4:17 @ as it is written, I have made you a father of many nations.

mnt@Romans:4:18 @ For Abraham, hoping against hope, had faith to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, So numberless shall your descendants be.

mnt@Romans:6:3 @ For do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Jesus Christ, have been baptized into his death?

mnt@Romans:6:11 @ Even so count yourselves also to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.

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

mnt@Romans:6:13 @ Do not continue to present any part of your body to sin to be used as a weapon of unrighteousness. On the contrary, be presenting yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and the various parts of your bodies to be used as weapons of righteousness.

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

mnt@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that when you surrender yourselves as slaves to any one to obey him, you are his slaves whom you obey; whether it be sin, whose end is death, or obedience, whose end is righteousness?

mnt@Romans:6:17 @ But God be thanked that you who were once the slaves of sin have obeyed from your hearts that type of teaching to which you were appointed;

mnt@Romans:6:18 @ and being set free from sin, you became the slaves of righteousness -

mnt@Romans:6:19 @ I speak in these homely figures because of the weakness of your fleshly nature - just as you once surrendered your faculties into slavery to impurity and to all lawlessness, so now you must surrender your faculties into slavery to righteousness, unto deeds of holiness.

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

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

mnt@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from sin and become slaves of God, the harvest-fruit which you are reaping tends to produce holiness, and it ends is life eternal.

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

mnt@Romans:7:4 @ So also, my brother, you were made dead to the Law through the body of Christ; that you should be joined to another, even to Him who was raised from the dead that we might bear fruit for God.

mnt@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not earthly, but spiritual, if indeed the Spirit of God is really dwelling in you. If any one does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

mnt@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, though your bodily self is dead because of sin, your spirit is full of life because of righteousness.

mnt@Romans:8:11 @ But if the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from dead is dwelling in you, He who raised up Jesus from the dead is dwelling in you, He who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also make your dying bodily self live by his indwelling Spirit in your lives.

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

mnt@Romans:8:15 @ For you have not received a spirit of slavery in order that you should once more be afraid; but you have received a spirit of adoption, in which we cry out, "My Father, my dear Father!"

mnt@Romans:9:12 @ it was said to her, The elder shall serve the younger.

mnt@Romans:9:17 @ For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, It is for this very purpose that I have raised you up, To show in you my power, And to proclaim my name far and wide, in all the earth.

mnt@Romans:9:19 @ Then you will say to me. "Why does he still go on finding fault? Who can withstand his will?"

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

mnt@Romans:9:26 @ And in that very spot where it was told them, "You are not my people," There they shall be called "Sons of the living God."

mnt@Romans:10:9 @ Confess with your mouth "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God actually raised him from the dead, and you will be saved.

mnt@Romans:10:19 @ But I say, Did Israel not know? First Moses says. I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation; Against a Gentile nation, void of understanding, will I anger you.

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

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

mnt@Romans:11:17 @ Supposing that some of the branches have been broken off, and you, although you were but a wild olive, have been grafted in among the branches and have become a partaker with them of the fatness of the olive tree, do not glory over the branches;

mnt@Romans:11:18 @ or if you are glorying, remember that it is not you who uphold the root, but the root which upholds you.

mnt@Romans:11:19 @ "Branches have been broken off," you say, "that I might be grafted in."

mnt@Romans:11:20 @ True, through their unbelief they were broken off, and by your faith you stand. Do not be puffed up, but fear;

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

mnt@Romans:11:22 @ Fix your gaze, therefore, on the goodness and the severity of God; towards those who fell, severity, but towards you, Gods goodness, if you continue stedfast in his goodness; otherwise you, too, will be cut off.

mnt@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a mere wild olive tree, and have been grafted, contrary to nature, into a fruitful olive tree, how much more shall these, the natural branches, be regrafted into their own olive tree?

mnt@Romans:11:25 @ For I would not, my brothers, have you ignorant of this hidden truth, for fear that you become wise in your own conceits. that a hardening in part has befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles is come in.

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

mnt@Romans:11:30 @ And as in times past you were yourselves disobedient to God, but now, thanks to their disobedience, have obtained mercy;

mnt@Romans:11:31 @ even so they also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they also may now obtain mercy.

mnt@Romans:12:1 @ I entreat you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies to Him as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God. This is your reasonable service of worship.

mnt@Romans:12:2 @ And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

mnt@Romans:12:3 @ For, through the grace that was given to me, I tell every man among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but so to think, as to think soberly, according to the measure of faith which God has given him.

mnt@Romans:12:9 @ Let love be without insincerity. Abhor what is evil; wed yourselves to what is good.

mnt@Romans:12:11 @ In your diligence be free from sloth. Be glowing in spirit. Slave for the master.

mnt@Romans:12:14 @ Bless your persecutors, bless, and curse not.

mnt@Romans:12:16 @ Have full sympathy with one another. Set not your minds on high affairs, but associate with lowly folk. Do not be wise in your own conceits.

mnt@Romans:12:18 @ If it be possible, so far as it lies with you, be at peace with all men.

mnt@Romans:12:19 @ Never revenge yourself, beloved, but leave the field clear for Gods wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay," says the Lord.

mnt@Romans:12:20 @ On the contrary, therefore, If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will be heaping burning coals on his head.

mnt@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are no terror to good deeds, but to evil. Would you be fearless of the rulers authority? Do what is good, and you will have his praise.

mnt@Romans:13:4 @ For the ruler is Gods minister appointed for your good. But if you are a wrong-doer, be afraid; he does not carry the sword to no purpose; he is Gods servant, appointed to vengeance upon the guilty.

mnt@Romans:13:5 @ Wherefore you must needs be in subjection, not only because of fear, but also for conscience sake.

mnt@Romans:13:6 @ This too, is the reason why you pay taxes; because the authorities are ministers of Gods service, attending continually upon this very thing.

mnt@Romans:13:11 @ Carry out these injunctions because you know the crisis that we are in, that now it is high time for you to awake out of sleep; for now is our salvation nearer than when we first believed.

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

mnt@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you just that judges the household-servant of another? To his own lord he stands or falls. And stand he will, for his Master has power to make him stand.

mnt@Romans:14:10 @ But you the abstainer, why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you again the non-abstainer, why do you despise yours? For we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God.

mnt@Romans:14:13 @ So let us no longer pass judgment on one another; rather let this be your judgment, that no one put a stumbling-block in his brothers way, nor any cause of falling.

mnt@Romans:14:15 @ If your brother is continually pained because of your food, you are not conducting yourself any longer in love. Do not, by what you eat, persist in destroying a man for whom Christ died.

mnt@Romans:14:16 @ Therefore do not let what is right, so far as you are concerned, be evil spoken of.

mnt@Romans:14:21 @ The right course is not to eat meat, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything through which your brother is made to stumble.

mnt@Romans:14:22 @ Have you faith? Keep it to yourself as in the presence of God. He is a happy man who does not condemn himself in that which he approves.

mnt@Romans:15:5 @ Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be in full sympathy with one another, in accordance with the example of Jesus Christ;

mnt@Romans:15:6 @ so that with one heart and with one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

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

mnt@Romans:15:13 @ Now the God of all hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may be overflowing with hope in the power of the Holy Spirit.

mnt@Romans:15:14 @ And I myself also am confident regarding you, my brothers, that you yourselves are already full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and well able to give advice to one another.

mnt@Romans:15:15 @ Still I have written unto you the more boldly, in part, by way of reminding you, because of that gift of grace which God bestowed upon me, in making me a priest of Jesus Christ unto the Gentiles.

mnt@Romans:15:22 @ This is why I have been so hindered from coming to you.

mnt@Romans:15:23 @ But now, since I have no more any "opening" in these parts, and since I have longed for many years to come to you

mnt@Romans:15:24 @ whenever I go to Spain, I am hoping to see you on my way there, and to be set forward by you on my way there, and to be set forward by you on my journey thither, after I have enjoyed your company for a little while.

mnt@Romans:15:28 @ When, therefore, I have settled this, and have secured to them the poor at Jerusalem the fruit of this collection, I shall come on by you into Spain.

mnt@Romans:15:29 @ And I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.

mnt@Romans:15:30 @ Brothers, I beseech you, by Jesus Christ our Lord, and by the love which the Spirit gives, to help me in my struggle by your prayers to God on my behalf,

mnt@Romans:15:32 @ and that I may come to you in joy, by the will of God, and find rest together with you.

mnt@Romans:15:33 @ The God of peace be with you all! Amen.

mnt@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a minister of the church at Cenchrae.

mnt@Romans:16:2 @ I beg you to give her a Christian welcome, as the saints should; and to assist her in any matter in which she may have need of you. For she herself has been made an overseer to many people, including myself.

mnt@Romans:16:6 @ Salute Mary, who toiled terribly for you;

mnt@Romans:16:16 @ Salute one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ salute you.

mnt@Romans:16:17 @ I exhort you, brothers, to keep watch of those who are causing the divisions among you, and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the teaching which you have learned.

mnt@Romans:16:19 @ I say this, for the tidings of your obedience have been told throughout the world. On your own behalf, then, I rejoice; but I want you to be wise unto the good, but innocents in evil.

mnt@Romans:16:20 @ The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

mnt@Romans:16:21 @ Timothy, my fellow worker, salutes you; so do my fellow countrymen Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater.

mnt@Romans:16:22 @ I, Tertius, who write this letter, salute you in the Lord.

mnt@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius, my host, and the host of the church, salutes you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, salutes you, and so does brother Quartus.

mnt@Romans:16:24 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all!

mnt@Romans:16:25 @ Now I commend you to Him who is able to keep you stedfast, according to my gospel, and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, whereby is unveiled the secret truth which was kept secret through immemorial ages,

mnt@1Corinthians:1:3 @ Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I am always thanking God on your behalf, for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus;

mnt@1Corinthians:1:5 @ that in everything you have been enriched in him, in all speech, and in all knowledge

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:1:8 @ He will also keep you perfectly stedfast unto the end, so that you will be unreprovable in the Day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:9 @ Faithful is the God by whom you were called into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I beg you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to speak in accord, all of you, and to have no divisions among you, but to be knit together in a common mind and temper.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been plainly told me concerning you, my brothers, by Chloes people, that there are dissensions among you.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:12 @ I mean by this that one of you says, "I am a follower of Paul"; another, "I of Apollos"; another, "I of Cephas"; another, "I of Christ."

mnt@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Has Christ been divided? Paul, was he crucified for you? or was it into the name of Paul that you were baptized?

mnt@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I am thankful to God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

mnt@1Corinthians:1:15 @ so that no one can say you were baptized in my name.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For consider your own calling, brothers, that not many wise in earthly wisdom, not many powerful, not many of noble birth, have been called.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:30 @ It is of him that you are in Christ Jesus, whom God made unto us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,

mnt@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And when I came to you, brothers, I came not to proclaim Gods great secret purpose in fine language of philosophy;

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

mnt@1Corinthians:2:3 @ In weakness and fear and great trembling came I among you.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:5 @ in order that your faith should rest, not on human philosophy, but on the power of God.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:1 @ As for me, brothers, I could not talk to you as spiritual men, but as to creatures of flesh, mere babes in Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I fed you milk, not meat; for you were unable to bear it.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:3 @ You are not able even now, for you are still unspiritual. While there is among you jealousy and strife, are you not still unspiritual, and behaving like worldlings?

mnt@1Corinthians:3:4 @ When one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere worldlings?

mnt@1Corinthians:3:5 @ What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Just ministers through whom you have believed, and each doing the work that the Lord gave him.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know what you are Gods sanctuary, and that the Spirit of God is dwelling within you?

mnt@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If any one tear down Gods sanctuary, God will tear him down; for the sanctuary of God is holy, and that is what you are.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If any one of you supposes that he is wise in the philosophy of the present age, let him become foolish, so that he may be wise.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:3:22 @ Paul, Apollos, Cephas, the world, life, death, things present or things to come; all things are yours;

mnt@1Corinthians:3:23 @ and you are Christs, and Christ is Gods.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But to me it matters very little that I am judged by you, or by any earthly court.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:6 @ Now these things, brothers, I have applied in a figure to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that in us you might learn not to go beyond what is written; that none of you be puffed up for the one, against the other.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who makes you a differ, brother? Or what have you that you did not receive? But if you did receive it, why are you boasting as if you had not received it?

mnt@1Corinthians:4:8 @ But you, forsooth, are already full, are you? You are already rich? Without us you are already reigning? Yes, and I would that you did reign, so that we also might reign with you.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:10 @ For Christs sake we are fools, but you are quite philosophic in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong; you are honorable, but we are outcast.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I am not writing this to shame you, but to admonish you, as my beloved children.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ Jesus, you can have but one father. For in Christ Jesus I begot you through the gospel.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:16 @ I beg you then to imitate my example.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:17 @ With this in mind I have sent Timothy to you. He is my dear and faithful son in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways in Christ; the manner in which I ever teach everywhere in every church.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:18 @ Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But come to you I will, and that soon, if it please the Lord, and then I shall learn not the talk of these boasters, but their power.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:21 @ Which do you want? Am I to come to you with a rod, or in a loving and tender spirit?

mnt@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and such immorality as is not even among the heathen - that a man has taken his fathers wife!

mnt@1Corinthians:5:2 @ Yet you are puffed up instead of mourning and removing from among you the man who has done this thing.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:4 @ When you are gathered together, and my spirit is with you together with the power of our Lord Jesus,

mnt@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that even a little leaven leavens all the lump?

mnt@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Then get rid of the old leaven, so that you may be like a new lump, as you are now unleavened. For our Paschal Lamb has already been sacrificed, Christ himself.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I told you in my letter not to associate with the immoral.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:10 @ Not that in this world you were actually to have no contact with the immoral, the avaricious, the thievish, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world, altogether.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But what I wrote was that you were not to associate with any so- called brother who is immoral, or avaricious, or idolatrous, or abusive, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. No, with such persons do not even sit at table.

mnt@1Corinthians:5:12 @ What have I to do with the judging of outsiders? Must not you judge those who are within the church, while God judges outsiders?

mnt@1Corinthians:5:13 @ Expel that wicked man from among you.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:1 @ Dare any one of you who has a grievance against his neighbor go to law before heathen judges, instead of before the saints?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be tried by you, are you unfit to try such trifling cases?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:3 @ Do you not know that we are to try angels? How much more, then, the affairs of life.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:4 @ Why then, if you have cases relating to earthly affairs which need to be decided, is it men who are absolutely nothing in the church whom you make your judges?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to shame you. Is it so that there is not among you a single wise man, capable of deciding between a man and his brother?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Indeed, to say nothing more, the fact that you have lawsuits with one another is altogether a defect in you. Why not rather suffer injustice? Why not rather endure being cheated?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:8 @ On the contrary, you yourselves are inflicting injustice and fraud, and that upon your brothers.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. None who are immoral, or idolaters, or adulterers, or catamites, or sodomites,

mnt@1Corinthians:6:11 @ Such were some of you, but you have washed away your stains, you have been consecrated, you have been justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.

mnt@1Corinthians:6:15 @ You know, do you not, that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of a harlot? God forbid!

mnt@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that he who joins himself to a harlot is one with her in body? (For God says, The two shall become one flesh.)

mnt@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Do you not know that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who is within you, the Spirit whom you have from God?

mnt@1Corinthians:6:20 @ You are not your own; for you have been bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your bodies.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not refuse one another, unless it is only temporary and by mutual consent, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again, lest through your lack of self-control Satan begin to tempt you to sin.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is consecrated through union with his believing wife; and the unbelieving wife, through union with her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unholy, but now they are consecrated to God.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:16 @ For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?

mnt@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called in slavery? Let not that trouble you; but if you can become free make use of the opportunity.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:23 @ You have been brought with a price; do not become slaves to men.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:25 @ I have no command from the Lord to give you concerning unmarried women; but I give you my opinion, and it is that of a man who, through the Lords mercy, is deserving of your confidence.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:7:28 @ Yet if you do not marry, you have not done wrong; and if a girl marries, she has not done wrong. Such people, however, will have trouble in worldy affairs, and I wish to spare you.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:32 @ So I want you to be free from all anxieties. An unmarried man is anxious about the Lords business, how he may please the Lord;

mnt@1Corinthians:7:35 @ It is in your own interest that I say this; not that I may entangle you in a snare, but that I may help you to serve the Lord with fitting and undistracted service.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But see to it lest this right of yours become a stumbling-block to the weak.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any one should see you, the possessor of "knowledge," reclining at table in an idols temple, would not his conscience, if he were weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?

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

mnt@1Corinthians:8:12 @ In so sinning against your brothers, and in ever and again wounding their weak consciences, you are sinning against Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:1 @ Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord?

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

mnt@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If I have sown for you the seeds of spiritual good, is it a great thing if I reap from you temporal goods?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others share this authority over you, do not I far more? Yet I have not availed myself of it, but am patiently enduring; so that I may not in any way hinder the progress of Christs gospel.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:13 @ You know, do you not, that those who minister in the temple, and those who serve at the altar, get their portion of the sacrifices?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that in a foot-race, though all run, only one receives the prize? So run that you may win.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:1 @ For I would not have you ignorant, brothers, how our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

mnt@1Corinthians:10:7 @ And you must not be idolaters like some of them. as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, And they rose up for idol dances.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you that is beyond mans power; but God is faithful, who will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear, but will, with every temptation, provide the way of escape also, so that you may be able to withstand.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I am speaking to men of sense; do you yourselves judge what I say.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:20 @ On the contrary, what the heathen sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have communion with demons.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:21 @ You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and also the cup of demons; you cannot be partakers in the Lords table and in the table of demons.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:23 @ "All things are lawful," you say? But not all things are expedient; "all things are lawful"; but not all build up.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If one who is not a believer invites you to his house, and you wish to go, eat everything that is set before you, without asking questions for conscience sake.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if any one tells you, "This food has been offered in sacrifice," do not eat it, for the sake of him who told you,

mnt@1Corinthians:10:29 @ and for your conscience sake - his conscience, not your own. "But," you may object, "why should my freedom be decided upon anothers scruples of conscience?

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

mnt@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Indeed I praise you for remembering me in everything, and because you are holding fast to the traditions just as you received them.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I wish you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and of a wife her husband is head; and that God is head of Christ.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Nor does nature itself teach you that it is a disgrace to a man to have long hair,

mnt@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But in giving you the following instructions, I cannot praise you; your solemn assemblies do more harm than good.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:18 @ To begin with, I am told - and I believe there is some truth in it - that when you meet at a church there are divisions among you.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must needs be also parties among you, in order that the good may be tested and made known.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Again, when you meet together, there is no true eating of the Lords Supper;

mnt@1Corinthians:11:21 @ for each one of you begins to eat his own supper; one goes hungry, while another gets drunk.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Have you no houses in which to eat or drink? or do you wish to show your contempt for the church of God, and to shame those who have no homes to eat in? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? In this I certainly do not praise you.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I passed on to you the account, which I myself received from the Lord; how the Lord Jesus, on the very night he was betrayed, took bread,

mnt@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when he had given thanks, he broke it, saying, "This is my body, broken for you; this do in memory of me."

mnt@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same way also, he took the cup after supper, saying. "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in memory of me."

mnt@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are proclaiming your Lords death until he come.

mnt@1Corinthians:11:30 @ This is why many among you are feeble and sickly, and many sleep.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:11:34 @ If any one is hungry, let him eat at home, so that your meetings do not bring condemnation upon you. The other matters I will adjust when I come.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not wish you to be ignorant.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:2 @ You know that when you were heathen you went astray after dumb idols, wherever he be led.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Wherefore I want you to understand that no one who speaks in the Spirit of God says, "Jesus is accursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except in the Holy Spirit.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you". nor again of head to the feet, "I have no need for you."

mnt@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Now you are the body of Christ, and individually members of it.

mnt@1Corinthians:12:31 @ Desire earnestly the greater gifts. And yet I will go on to show you a still more excellent way.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Hotly pursue this love, yet seek earnestly spiritual gifts, and chiefly that you may prophesy.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I should like you all to speak with "tongues"; but I should rather that you prophesied, For he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless he interprets, so that the church may be built up.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:6 @ Now brothers, if I should come to you speaking with tongues, what should I benefit you, unless I speak to you some revelation, or knowledge, or prophecy, or teaching?

mnt@1Corinthians:14:9 @ In the same way with you, if you utter unintelligible words with your tongue, how can what you say be understood? You will be speaking to the winds!

mnt@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So also in your case, since you are ambitious for spiritual gifts, seek to excel in them for the upbuilding of the church.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:14:17 @ You on the one hand offer a good thanksgiving, but the other is not built up.

mnt@1Corinthians:14:18 @ Thank God I speak with tongues more than you all,

mnt@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Accordingly, when the whole church assemblies, and everybody is speaking "with tongues," if there enter men unlearned or unbelieving, will they not say that you are mad?

mnt@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all are prophesying when an unlearned or unbelieving man enters, he is convicted in conscience by your speaker, he feels himself judged by all,

mnt@1Corinthians:14:25 @ and the secret depths of his heart are laid open. So he will fall upon his face and worship God, saying, "Of a truth, God is with you."

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

mnt@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you can all prophesy one by one; so that all may be learning, and all may be encouraged.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:14:36 @ What, was it from you that the word of God went forth, or to you only did it come?

mnt@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any one thinks himself a prophet or spiritual, let him recognize that what I am now writing you is a command of the Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Now I am calling to your remembrance, brothers, the gospel which I preached to you, which you also received, and on which you have taken your stand,;47 The first man is of the earth, earthly; the second Man is of heaven.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which also you are saved, if you are holding fast the message which I preached to you; unless indeed you have believed in vain.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:15:11 @ But whether it is I or they, thus do I preach, and thus you came to believe.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:12 @ If then, we are preaching Christ, that he rose from the dead, how are some of you saying that there is no resurrection from the dead?

mnt@1Corinthians:15:14 @ and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, and vain also is your faith.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:17 @ and if Christ be not risen, your faith is vain, you are still in your sins.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:31 @ Every day I am facing death, my brothers, I affirm it by that pride in you which I have through Christ Jesus our Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:33 @ Do not deceive yourselves. Evil companions ruin good morals.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Wake up, do justly, cease from sin; for I say to your shame that some of you have no acquaintance with God.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:36 @ Foolish man! The seed you sow does not come to life unless it dies.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And when you sow the seed you are not sowing the body that it will become, but bare grain, of wheat perhaps, or some other grain.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:50 @ I tell you this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor can corruption inherit incorruption.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Lo, I tell you a secret truth. we shall not all be sleeping, but we shall be changed,

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of each week let each of you put aside something, keeping it in store as he may prosper, so that when I come there may be no collections going on.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:3 @ On my arrival I will send those whom you may accredit by letter to carry your bounty to Jerusalem.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I shall come to you after I have gone through Macedonia.

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

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

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:16:14 @ Let all that you do be done in love.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:15 @ I beg you this, my brothers - you know the household of Stephanus, that they were the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they devoted themselves to the service of the saints -

mnt@1Corinthians:16:16 @ so I want you also to show deference to such, and to every fellow worker, and laborer.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:16:18 @ They refresh my spirit as they do yours. So cultivate the acquaintance of such men.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla (Prisca), with the church that meets in their house, greet you heartily in the Lord.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:23 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.

mnt@1Corinthians:16:24 @ My love be with you all in Christ Jesus.

mnt@2Corinthians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father in the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:1:8 @ Now, brothers, I want you to know about the troubles which befell me in Asia; how I was burdened altogether beyond my strength, so that I renounced all hope even of life itself.

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:1:14 @ as some indeed did recognize in part at last, that I am your cause of boasting, just as you will be mine on the Day of Jesus our Lord.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:1:18 @ As God is faithful, my message to you is not now "Yes," now "No."

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

mnt@2Corinthians:1:21 @ And he who has established me with you in the Anointed One, and has anointed me, is God.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:2:1 @ I decided that I would not visit you again in grief;

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For I wrote to you out of much affliction and anguish of heart, through many tears; not to pain you, but to convince you of my love, my abundant love for you.

mnt@2Corinthians:2:5 @ As to him who has been, and now is, causing pain, it is not I whom he has pained, but all of you - at least some of you (not to overstate the case).

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

mnt@2Corinthians:2:8 @ So I beg you to reinstate him in your love.

mnt@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For this very purpose also I wrote you (before), that I might test you, to see if you were obedient in every respect.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Am I beginning again to "recommend" myself? Or do I need, as some do, letters of commendation either to you or from you?

mnt@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You are my letter, written on my heart, known and read by all men.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:3 @ Since all can see that you are a letter of Christ transcribed by men, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone, but on human hearts as tablets.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:4:12 @ So while death is working in me, life is working in you.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:14 @ For I know that He who raised from the dead the Lord Jesus, will raise me also with Jesus, and set me at your side in his presence.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For everything is for your sakes, so that more abundant grace, because of the thanksgiving of many voices, might overflow to the glory of God.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:11 @ So, because I know the fear of God, I "persuade men." What I am is manifest to God, and I hope manifest also to your conscience.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:5:20 @ On Christs behalf, then, I come as ambassador. It is as though God was entreating you, through me, on Christs behalf I beg you to be reconciled to God.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:1 @ As a worker with him I beseech you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:11 @ O Corinthians, I am unsealing my lips to you; my heart is wide open to you.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:12 @ There is no narrowness in my love; but the narrowness is in your own.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:6:18 @ then I will receive you and will be to you a Father, and you shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:7:9 @ But now I am glad; not because you were pained; but because your pain led you to repentance.

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:7:14 @ Although I have been boasting a little to him about you, I have not been put to shame. But as in every matter I have spoken the truth to you, so also my boast to Titus has been proved to be the truth.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his tender affection is all the greater toward you, when he calls to mind the obedience of you all, and the fear and trembling with which you received him.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:16 @ I rejoice that I have complete confidence in you.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:1 @ Now, brothers, I wish to tell you about the grace of God which has been manifest in the churches of Macedonia.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:6 @ With the result that I have been begging Titus that, as he had been the one to begin the work with you, so he should complete among you this grace also.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:7 @ Now then, as you excel in everything, in faith and utterance and knowledge and all zeal and in your love to me, see to it that you excel in this grace also.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I do not say this by way of command, but by the zeal of others I am trying to prove the reality of your love.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And I will give you my opinion in this matter; for this offering is fitting in your case, considering that you made a beginning before others, not only in the willingness to do something but also in actually doing something a year ago.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:11 @ So now complete the doing of it also, in order that just as there was the readiness to will, so there may be the accomplishment according to your means.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:13 @ Nor are other people to be relieved, and you to be distressed;

mnt@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but burdens are to be equalized. Now your abundance at this present time present time is a supply for their want, in supply for your want; and so burdens be equalized,

mnt@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God who has inspired in the heart of Titus the same zeal on your behalf that I have.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:8:22 @ With them I am sending our brother of whose zeal I have often had proof in many ways, and who is now zealous because of his great confidence in you.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:8:24 @ So show to the churches an evidence of your love, and a justification to these brothers of my boasting about you.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know how ready you are, and am always boasting about you to the Macedonians, telling them that Greece has been ready for a year past; and your zeal has been a spur to the majority of them.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:3 @ Nevertheless I am sending the brothers in order that my boast about you may not prove vain in this instance; so that, as I kept saying, you may be prepared.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:4 @ For if any Macedonians come with me and find you not ready, shame would come upon me (not to speak of you) in respect to this confidence.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I have thought that I must ask these brothers to visit you beforehand, and get your promised contribution ready in advance. I want it to be given of your bounty, not extorted from your covetousness.

mnt@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to give you an overflowing measure of every grace, so that all your wants of every kind may be supplied at all times, and you may give of your abundance to every good work;

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

mnt@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You yourselves will be enriched with all good things, that you may give ungrudgingly; and your gifts, of which I am the agent, will make men give thanks to God.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I Paul, myself, appeal to you by the humble-heartedness and selflessness of Christ - Paul who "in your presence is humble, but bold enough when he is absent" -

mnt@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beseech you, and I say, do not make me show my boldness, when I come in the boldness with which I think I shall show my courage against some who think that I am walking on the low level of the flesh.

mnt@2Corinthians:10:6 @ and I am fully prepared to punish every act of disobedience, when once your submission has been put beyond question.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:10:9 @ Let it not seem as if I were overawing you with my letters.

mnt@2Corinthians:10:13 @ I, however, will not indulge in undue boasting, but will confine it within the limits of the sphere to which God has assigned me - a sphere which reaches even to you.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:10:15 @ I am not "boasting beyond measure in the labors of others," but it is my hope that, as your faith goes on increasing among yourselves, by the enlargement of my appointed limits,

mnt@2Corinthians:10:16 @ I may carry the gospel to countries beyond you; and not be boasting of work made ready to my hand within another mans limit.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:1 @ Would that you could put up with a little "folly" from me! Nay, do bear with me.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I fear lest, just as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, so your minds should be seduced from your single-mindedness and purity toward Christ.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:11:6 @ Yes, though I be unskilled in speech, at least I am not in knowledge; indeed I made this perfectly plain to you in all things and among all men.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:11:8 @ Other churches I spoiled, and took their wages to do you service.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:9 @ Even when I lacked the actual necessities of life while I was with you, I was a burden to no one; for whatever I lacked, the brothers from Macedonia supplied, when they came. So I kept myself from being a burden to you in any way, and will continue to do so.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:11 @ And why? Because I love you not? God knows I do.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, let no one think me a fool. Or, if you must, at least bear with me as a fool, that I, too, may do a little boasting.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:19 @ Although you are wise, you put up with fools willingly enough!

mnt@2Corinthians:11:20 @ You put up with it, though they make slaves of you, live on you, seize your property, lord it over you, even strike you in the face, in the way of degradation!

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:12:12 @ In truth the signs of the true apostle were wrought among you in all patience by signs and marvels and powers.

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:12:16 @ But though it be granted that I was not a burden to you, yet, you say, this was my cunning with which I caught you by a trick.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:17 @ Did I make gain of you through any of those whom I sent to you?

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This will be my third visit to you. Out of the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be confirmed.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:13:3 @ Since you want a proof of Christ who is speaking in me, he who is not feeble toward you, but powerful among you.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves to see if you are in the faith; put your own selves to the proof. Or do you not know, your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you, unless indeed you fail to abide the proof?

mnt@2Corinthians:13:6 @ But I hope you will find that I abide the proof.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:7 @ And my prayer to God is that you may do no evil; not in order that I may appear approved, but that you may do what is noble, though I should seem unable to abide the proof.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brothers, farewell. Aim at perfection, take courage, be of one mind, live in peace; so shall the God of love and peace be with you.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:13 @ All the saints salute you.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:14 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

mnt@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace be to you, and peace from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

mnt@Galatians:1:6 @ I am amazed that you are so soon shifting your ground, and deserting him who called you by the grace of Christ,

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

mnt@Galatians:1:8 @ But even though I myself or an angel from heaven were to preach any gospel other than that which I did preach to you, let him be accursed.

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

mnt@Galatians:1:10 @ Think you that I am now trying to conciliate men or God? Or am I "seeking to please men"? If I were still seeking to please men, I should not be a slave of Christ.

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

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

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

mnt@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not walking a straight path, in the presence of the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all. "If you, although you are a Jew, live like the Gentiles and not like the Jews, why do you try to compel the Gentiles to become Jews?

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

mnt@Galatians:3:2 @ Answer me this one question. "When you received the Spirit, was it from doing what the Law commands or from believing the message heard?"

mnt@Galatians:3:3 @ Are you so without sense? After beginning with the Spirit, will you now end with the flesh?

mnt@Galatians:3:4 @ Did you have such experience to no purpose - if indeed it was really to no purpose?

mnt@Galatians:3:5 @ Does he then who supplies you with his Spirit and works miracles among you, do it because you do what the law commands of because you believe the message heard?

mnt@Galatians:3:16 @ Now it was to Abraham that the promises were spoken, and to his offspring. God did not say, "offsprings" as if speaking of many, but "and to your offspring," as of one; and this is Christ.

mnt@Galatians:3:26 @ You are all sons of God through your faith in Jesus Christ.

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

mnt@Galatians:3:28 @ In him there is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

mnt@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you belong to Christ, then you are the descendants of Abraham, heirs according to the promise.

mnt@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God sent forth the spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, "Dear, dear Father!"

mnt@Galatians:4:7 @ So each one of you is no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir, too, through Gods grace.

mnt@Galatians:4:8 @ But once, when you Gentiles had no knowledge of God, you were slaves to gods which have no real being.

mnt@Galatians:4:9 @ Now, however, when you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you are beginning to turn back to those weak and beggarly externalities, eager to be in bondage to them again?

mnt@Galatians:4:10 @ You are scrupulous, are you, in observing "days" and "months" and "seasons" and "years"?

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

mnt@Galatians:4:12 @ Brothers, I beseech you, become as I am, because I also have become as you are. You never did me any wrong;

mnt@Galatians:4:13 @ on the contrary, you know that although it was illness which brought about my preaching the gospel to you at my first visit,

mnt@Galatians:4:14 @ and although my bodily affliction was a trial to you, you did not scoff at it nor spurn me, but welcomed me like an angel of God, like Christ Jesus himself.

mnt@Galatians:4:15 @ Why then did you account yourselves so happy? (For I bear you witness that if you could you would have torn out your own eyes and given them to me.)

mnt@Galatians:4:16 @ Am I then become your enemy, because I am telling you the truth?

mnt@Galatians:4:17 @ These men are courting your favor to no good purpose. They want to isolate you, so that you will be courting their favor.

mnt@Galatians:4:18 @ It is always an honorable thing to have your favor sought in an honorable cause, always, and not only when I am with you.

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

mnt@Galatians:4:20 @ How I wish I could be with you now, that I might change my tone; for I am perplexed about you.

mnt@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you who wish to be subject to the Law, why do you not listen to the Law?

mnt@Galatians:4:28 @ But you, brothers, are like Isaac, children of the promise;

mnt@Galatians:5:2 @ Listen to me! I, Paul, declare to you that if you are to continue to follow the rite of circumcision, Christ will be no profit to you.

mnt@Galatians:5:4 @ If you are being justified by law, you are cut off from Christ; you are fallen away from grace.

mnt@Galatians:5:7 @ You were running your race nobly. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?

mnt@Galatians:5:8 @ The influence brought to bear does not come from him who is calling you.

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

mnt@Galatians:5:12 @ Would to God that those who are trying to unsettle you would even have themselves mutilated.

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

mnt@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you are always biting and devouring one another, take heed lest you be utterly consumed one by another.

mnt@Galatians:5:16 @ This is my meaning. Let your steps be guided by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

mnt@Galatians:5:17 @ For the desire of the flesh is against that of the Spirit, and the desire of the Spirit is against that of the flesh, for they two are antagonistic, so that you may not do those things that you wish.

mnt@Galatians:5:18 @ But if you are habitually led by the Spirit you are not under law.

mnt@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, drunkenness, revelings, and things like these. I tell you beforehand, as I have already told you, that those who practise such sins shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

mnt@Galatians:6:1 @ Even if any one should be overtaken in a fault, brothers, you that are spiritual ought, in a gentle spirit, to restore such a one, each one of you looking to himself, lest you too be tempted.

mnt@Galatians:6:11 @ See with what large letters I have written to you in my own handwriting!

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

mnt@Galatians:6:13 @ Even those who are being circumcised, are not themselves keeping the Law, but they want you to be circumcised so that they may glory in your flesh.

mnt@Galatians:6:18 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.

mnt@Ephesians:1:2 @ grace to you and peace from God our father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:1:13 @ And in him, because you listened to the proclamation of the truth, the evangel of your salvation, and trusted it, you Gentiles too were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

mnt@Ephesians:1:15 @ For this reason I also, from the time when I heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which prevails among you, and your love to all the saints,

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

mnt@Ephesians:1:17 @ I am praying that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father most glorious, may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation, through an intimate knowledge of himself;

mnt@Ephesians:1:18 @ and that the eyes of your heart may be flooded with light so that you may understand what is the hope of his calling, what the wealth of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

mnt@Ephesians:2:1 @ And so God has given life to you Gentiles also, who were once dead in your trespasses and sins,

mnt@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you passed your lives after the way of this world, under the sway of the Prince of the Powers of the Air, the spirit who is now working among the sons of disobedience.

mnt@Ephesians:2:5 @ even while we were dead in our trespasses, made us live together with Christ (it is by grace you have been saved).

mnt@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is Gods gift.

mnt@Ephesians:2:11 @ Do not forget then, that you Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "uncircumcision" by the "circumcision" made in flesh by mans hand,

mnt@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near in the blood of Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:2:17 @ So he came preaching "Peace" to you Gentiles who were afar off, and "Peace" to us Jews who were near;

mnt@Ephesians:2:19 @ Take notice then that no longer are you strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of Gods household.

mnt@Ephesians:2:20 @ You are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner-stone.

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

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:3:3 @ You have heard how by direct revelation the secret truth was made known to me, as I have already briefly written you.

mnt@Ephesians:3:4 @ By reading what I have written, you can judge of my insight into that secret truth of Christ

mnt@Ephesians:3:13 @ So I beg you not to lose heart over my tribulations in your behalf; they are your glory.

mnt@Ephesians:3:16 @ praying him to grant you according to the riches of his glory to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in your inmost being;

mnt@Ephesians:3:17 @ that Christ may make his home in your hearts through your faith; that you may be so deeply rooted and so firmly grounded in love,

mnt@Ephesians:3:18 @ that you may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is "the breadth," "the length," "the depth," and "the height,"

mnt@Ephesians:3:19 @ and may know the love of Christ which transcends all knowing, so that you may be filled with all the "plenitude" of God.

mnt@Ephesians:4:1 @ I summon you then, I the prisoner in the Lord, to live lives worthy of the calling to which you were called.

mnt@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one spirit, even as also you were called in one hope of your calling.

mnt@Ephesians:4:17 @ This then I tell you and implore you in the Masters name, to pass your lives no longer as the Gentiles do in the perverseness of their minds;

mnt@Ephesians:4:20 @ But you have not so learned Christ,

mnt@Ephesians:4:21 @ if indeed you have listened to him, and in him been taught the truth as it is in Jesus.

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

mnt@Ephesians:4:23 @ and to be made new in the spirit of your mind,

mnt@Ephesians:4:26 @ "Be angry and sin not"; let not the sun go down upon your anger.

mnt@Ephesians:4:29 @ From your lips let no evil words come forth, but such as occasion warrants, such as are good for upbuilding and give a blessing to the hearers.

mnt@Ephesians:4:30 @ And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you have been sealed for the day of redemption.

mnt@Ephesians:4:31 @ Banish from among you all bitterness and passion and anger and clamor and slander, as well as all malice;

mnt@Ephesians:4:32 @ and be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ has forgiven you.

mnt@Ephesians:5:2 @ and to lead lives of love, just as Christ also loved you and gave himself up for you, an offering and sacrifice unto God, for you, an offering and sacrifice unto God, for "an odor of sweetness."

mnt@Ephesians:5:3 @ As for sexual vice and every kind of impurity or lust, it is unbecoming for you as Christians even to mention them;

mnt@Ephesians:5:4 @ so too with vulgarity and buffoonery and foolish jesting. Such words become you not, but rather thanksgiving.

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:5:15 @ See to it, then, that you carry on your life carefully; not as foolish, but as wise men.

mnt@Ephesians:5:19 @ when you talk together; with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and with all your hearts making music unto the Lord;

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:5:33 @ But as for you individually, you must each one of you love his own wife exactly as if she were yourself; and the wife, on her part, should reverence her husband.

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

mnt@Ephesians:6:2 @ Honor your father and mother (this is the first commandment with a promise attached),

mnt@Ephesians:6:3 @ that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the earth.

mnt@Ephesians:6:4 @ And you fathers, do not irritate your children, but bring them up in the nature and admonition of the Lord.

mnt@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with reverence and humility, in singleness of heart as if to Christ himself;

mnt@Ephesians:6:7 @ slaving with good-will from your heart, as for the Lord and not for men;

mnt@Ephesians:6:8 @ because you know that whatever good any man does, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be slave or free man.

mnt@Ephesians:6:9 @ And you masters, show the same spirit to your slaves, and stop threatening them; for you know that your masters and theirs is in heaven, and that there is no respect of persons with him.

mnt@Ephesians:6:10 @ Finally, my brothers, let your hearts be strengthened in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

mnt@Ephesians:6:11 @ Put on all the panoply of God, so that you may be able to stand your ground against the stratagems of the devil.

mnt@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore take up the panoply of God, so that when the evil day comes you may be able to withstand them, and having overthrown them all, to stand your ground.

mnt@Ephesians:6:15 @ and having your feet shod with the stability of the gospel of peace.

mnt@Ephesians:6:16 @ And take up to cover you the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the flaming darts of the Evil One.

mnt@Ephesians:6:21 @ But that you also may know my affairs and how I do, Tychicus, my beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make everything known to you.

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

mnt@Philippians:1:2 @ Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

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

mnt@Philippians:1:5 @ from the first day you heard it until now.

mnt@Philippians:1:6 @ Of this I am fully persuaded, that He who has begun a good work in you will go on completing it until the day of Jesus Christ.

mnt@Philippians:1:7 @ It is but just that I should be thus mindful of you all, because I have you in my heart, and because in these fetters of mine and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel you are all my fellow partners in the privilege.

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

mnt@Philippians:1:9 @ And it is my prayer that your love may abound yet more and more in intelligence and insight

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

mnt@Philippians:1:12 @ I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has turned out rather to help than to the hindrance of the gospel.

mnt@Philippians:1:19 @ For I know that these things will turn out to my salvation through your prayers and a rich supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

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

mnt@Philippians:1:25 @ And because I am convinced of this, I know that I shall live, and go on working side by side with you all for your progress and joy in the faith,

mnt@Philippians:1:26 @ so that you may find me fresh cause of exultation in Christ Jesus, because of my presence among you once more.

mnt@Philippians:1:27 @ Only do lead lives worthy of the gospel of Christ; so that whether I come to see you or hear reports concerning you in my absence, I may know that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one soul, enlisted in a common struggle for the faith of the gospel,

mnt@Philippians:1:28 @ and in no way terrorized by its enemies. For you fearlessness is a clear indication of coming ruin for them, but of salvation for you at the hands of God.

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

mnt@Philippians:1:30 @ while you wage the same conflict which you once saw in me, and now hear that I maintain.

mnt@Philippians:2:2 @ I entreat you to make my joy overflow by living in harmony; possessing the same love, and with one soul united in one purpose.

mnt@Philippians:2:5 @ Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

mnt@Philippians:2:12 @ And so, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, with reverence and self- distrust work out your own salvation;

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

mnt@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may become blameless and innocent, the sons of God, without rebuke in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine like stars in a dark world,

mnt@Philippians:2:17 @ Nay, even if my life is to be poured out as a libation upon the sacrifice and service of you faith,

mnt@Philippians:2:18 @ I will rejoice and congratulate you all; and in the same way you must rejoice and congratulate me.

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

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

mnt@Philippians:2:22 @ And you know Timothys worth, how he has shared my servitude in furtherance of the gospel, like a son helping his father.

mnt@Philippians:2:25 @ Epaphroditus, my brother and coworker and fellow soldier, who is your messenger and minister to my needs, I have thought it necessary to send to you;

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

mnt@Philippians:2:28 @ Therefore I have been the more eager to send him, in order that you may rejoice in seeing him again, and that I may have one sorrow less.

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

mnt@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brothers, continue to rejoice in the Lord. To write the same thing is not indeed wearisome to me, and it is safe for you.

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

mnt@Philippians:3:17 @ Brothers, be comrades in imitating me, and study those whose life and walk is according to the pattern I have set you.

mnt@Philippians:3:18 @ For there are many - as I used often to tell you, and am now telling you even with tears - who live and walk as the enemies of the cross of Christ.

mnt@Philippians:4:3 @ yes, and I beg you also, my true yokefellow, to help them; for these women shared my toil in the furtherance of the gospel, together with Clement, and the rest of my fellow workers whose names are in the book of life.

mnt@Philippians:4:5 @ Let your reasonableness be recognized by every one. The Lord is near you.

mnt@Philippians:4:6 @ Do not worry about anything; but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

mnt@Philippians:4:7 @ and the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will stand guard over your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

mnt@Philippians:4:9 @ Put in practise also what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me; and the God of peace shall be with you.

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

mnt@Philippians:4:14 @ Notwithstanding, you have acted nobly in making yourselves comrades in my trouble.

mnt@Philippians:4:15 @ And you very well know, Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I had left Macedonia, no church but yourselves had fellowship with me in the matter of giving and receiving.

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

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

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

mnt@Philippians:4:19 @ All your own needs my God will fully supply, according to his riches in glory, in Christ Jesus.

mnt@Philippians:4:21 @ Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me salute you.

mnt@Philippians:4:22 @ All the saints salute you, and especially the slaves of the Emperors household.

mnt@Philippians:4:23 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirits.

mnt@Colossians:1:2 @ to the holy and believing brothers in Christ who are in Colosse. Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father.

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

mnt@Colossians:1:4 @ (since I heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love to all the saints)

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

mnt@Colossians:1:6 @ And just as it is spreading through the whole world, bearing fruit and increasing, so also is it among you, from the day in which you heard it, and came truly to know the grace of God,

mnt@Colossians:1:7 @ as you learned it from Epaphras, our dearly loved fellow slave. He is a faithful minister of Jesus Christ in your behalf,

mnt@Colossians:1:8 @ and it is he who has told me of your love for me in the spirit.

mnt@Colossians:1:9 @ For this reason from the day I heard of it I have never ceased to pray for you, asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will with every kind of wisdom and spiritual insight;

mnt@Colossians:1:10 @ that you may walk worthy of the Lord in every kind of pleasing; that you may be fruitful in every kind of good work, and may increase in the knowledge of God;

mnt@Colossians:1:11 @ that you may be strengthened in every kind of strength by the might of his glory for every kind of patience and fortitude with good cheer.

mnt@Colossians:1:12 @ I ask that you may give thanks to the Father who has made us fit to receive our share of the heritage of the saints in the light.

mnt@Colossians:1:21 @ And you, alienated as you once were, hostile at heart in your evil deeds,

mnt@Colossians:1:22 @ he has now in his human body reconciled to God by his death, in order that he may bring you into his presence, holy and unblemished and irreproachable.

mnt@Colossians:1:23 @ And this he will do if, indeed, you continue in the faith, firmly founded and stedfast, and never moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, and which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, that gospel of which I, Paul, was made a minister.

mnt@Colossians:1:24 @ I am now rejoicing in my sufferings on your behalf; and I am filling up in my own body what is yet lacking of the sufferings of Christ in behalf of the church, his Body.

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

mnt@Colossians:1:27 @ To them God willed to make known among the Gentiles how glorious are the riches of that secret truth, which is "Christ in you, the hope of glory."

mnt@Colossians:2:1 @ For I would have you know how great a contest I am waging for you and the brethren in Laodicea, and for all who have never seen my face.

mnt@Colossians:2:4 @ And this I say, lest any one should mislead you with enticing words.

mnt@Colossians:2:5 @ For though I am absent from you in body, I am with you in spirit, happy to note your discipline and the solid front of your faith in Christ.

mnt@Colossians:2:6 @ As then you have received Jesus Christ, your Lord, in him live your lives;

mnt@Colossians:2:7 @ since you are rooted in him, and in him continually built up. Be firmly established in the faith as you were taught it, and continually abound in it with thanksgiving.

mnt@Colossians:2:8 @ Take care lest any man drag you away captive by his philosophy which is a vain deceit, following the traditions of men and the worlds crude notions, and not Christ.

mnt@Colossians:2:10 @ and in him you have your fulness, and he is the Lord of all the principalities and powers.

mnt@Colossians:2:11 @ In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands; even in putting off your sensual nature in Christs own circumcision,

mnt@Colossians:2:12 @ when you were buried with him in baptism. In baptism also you were raised with him, through your faith in the energy of that God who raised him from the dead.

mnt@Colossians:2:13 @ And you also, at one time dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your sensual nature, he has made alive together with himself. For he forgave us all our transgressions,

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

mnt@Colossians:2:18 @ Let no man at his will defraud you of your prize through his false humility and worship of the angels, taking his stand on the visions he has seen, and vainly puffed up by his material mind;

mnt@Colossians:2:20 @ If you died with Christ to the worlds rudimentary notions, why, as if you still lived in the world, do you submit yourselves to dogmatisms found on teachings and doctrines of men -

mnt@Colossians:2:21 @ such as "Do not handle this," "You must not taste that," "Do not touch this" -

mnt@Colossians:3:1 @ If you then are risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ abides, seated on the right hand of God.

mnt@Colossians:3:2 @ Set your heart on things above, not on earthly things;

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

mnt@Colossians:3:4 @ When Christ, who is our life, appears, then will you also appear with him in glory.

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

mnt@Colossians:3:7 @ among whom you once led your daily life when you lived in them.

mnt@Colossians:3:8 @ But now you also must renounce them all. Anger, passion, and ill- will must be put away; slander, too, and foul talk, so that they may never soil your lips.

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

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

mnt@Colossians:3:15 @ Let the peace of Christ, to which also you were called in one body, rule in your hearts, and show yourselves thankful.

mnt@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ have its home in you richly, in all wisdom. Teach and admonish one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, ever singing with grace in your hearts unto God.

mnt@Colossians:3:17 @ And whatever you do, whether in word of in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God our Father through him.

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

mnt@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, be loving to your wives, and be not cross or surly with them.

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

mnt@Colossians:3:21 @ Fathers, do not harass your children, lest you make them spiritless.

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

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

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

mnt@Colossians:4:1 @ Masters, deal justly and fairly with your slaves, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

mnt@Colossians:4:5 @ Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward those without, buying up your opportunities.

mnt@Colossians:4:6 @ Let your speech be always gracious, with a savor of salt, and learn how to give every man a fitting answer.

mnt@Colossians:4:7 @ Tychicus, my beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow slave in the Lord, will make known to you all that concerns me.

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

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

mnt@Colossians:4:10 @ Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, salutes you, and Marcus, the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions; if he comes to you, make him welcome), and Jesus surnamed Justas.

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

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

mnt@Colossians:4:14 @ Luke, the beloved physician, salutes you, and so does Demas.

mnt@Colossians:4:16 @ And when this letter has been read to you, see that it is read also in the church of Laodiceans, and that you also read the letter from Laodicea.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul and Silas and Timothy. To the church of the Thessalonians which is in God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ. Grace be to you, and peace.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ as I call to mind your work of faith, and labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the presence of our God and Father.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ for my gospel did not come to you in word only, but in power also, and in the Holy Spirit, and with deep conviction. For you know also the manner in which I behaved myself among you for your sakes.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ Moreover, you began to follow the pattern I set you, and the Lords also, receiving the word with joy in the Holy Spirit, although amid severe persecution.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ Thus you became a pattern to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For the word of the Lord has been sounded forth from you, and its sound has been heard not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place where the tidings of your faith toward God have been spread abroad, so that I have no need to speak of it.

mnt@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For others, of their own accord, tell about the welcome I had from you, and how you turned to God from your idols, to be slaved of a true and living God,

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ for you remember that although I had already borne ill-treatment and insult at Philippi, I took courage in my God to tell you the gospel of God, in the face of much opposition.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Now was I seeking glory from men, either yourselves or others, although I might have exercised authority as Christs apostle.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ On the contrary I showed myself among you as gentle as a mother, when she tenderly nurses her own children.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So in my fond affection it was my joy to give you, not only the gospel of God, but my very life also, because you had become dear to me.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ You recall, brothers, my labor and toil; how, while working at my trade day and night, so as not to become a burden to any of you, I proclaimed to you the gospel of God.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses - and so is God - how pure and just and blameless was my behavior among you believers.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ You know how I was wont to treat each of you as a father treats his children,

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ exhorting and imploring and adjuring each one among you to lead a life worthy of the God who called you into his own kingdom and glory.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brothers, began to follow the example of the churches of God in Judea, which are in Christ Jesus; and you in your turn suffered at the hands of your fellow citizens persecutions like to those which they endured from the Jews -

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ For that reason I would fain have visited you - I, Paul, again and again - but Satan hindered me.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is my hope, or joy? What is the victors wreath in which I exult? What but your own selves in the presence of our Lord Jesus, at his coming! For you are my pride and my delight.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ I sent Timothy, my brother and Gods fellow worker in the gospel of Christ, to strengthen you and to hearten you in your faith.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ So that no one should be shaken by these troubles-for you know well that we are appointed to troubles.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For even when I was with you I used to tell you beforehand that I was to suffer affliction; and so it proved, as you know.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ So, when I could no longer endure it, I sent to find out about your faith, fearing that the tempter had tempted you and that my labor had been in vain.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has returned from you to me, and has brought good news of your faith and love, and that you are still holding me in affectionate remembrance, always longing to see me as I also am longing to see you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ I have been comforted, my brothers, in regard to you, in spite of all my distress and affliction over your faith.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ For now I am really living, if you are standing firm in the Lord.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanksgiving can I render again to God in your behalf, in return for all the joy which you cause me in the presence of my God?

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ Night and day I am praying earnestly that I may see you face to face, and may perfect whatever is yet lacking in your faith.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct my path to you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ Meanwhile, may the Lord cause you to increase and abound in love toward one another and toward all men, even as I do toward you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ And so may he establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus, with all his saints.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ Finally then, my brothers, I continue to beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that, as you learned of me how to walk so as to please God - and you are actually doing so - that you abound in it yet more and more.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ For you know what charges I laid upon you through the Lord Jesus.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ That no man overreach or take advantage of his brother in such matters, because "the Lord takes vengeance" in all these things, as also I repeatedly forewarned you and testified to you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ So that he who rejects this is not rejecting man, but the God who gave you his Holy Spirit.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ As indeed you do love all the brothers in Macedonia. But I exhort you, brothers, to abound in this yet more.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ Also, that you endeavor to live quietly and to mind your own business, and to work with your hands (as I charged you).

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ So that your conduct may be seemly toward those that are without, and that you may not need help from any man.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ But I would not have you ignorant, brothers, about those who are falling asleep. You must not sorrow like other men, who have no hope.

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For this I tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are living, who survive unto the coming of the Lord, will in no wise precede those who have fallen asleep.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ Now as to the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ You yourselves know perfectly that the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that "the Day" should come upon you like a bandit.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ For you are all sons of light, and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ I entreat you, brothers, to acknowledge those who are toiling among you and are your leaders in the Lord, and give you counsel.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ And, brothers, we urge you to admonish the disorderly, comfort the faint-hearted, sustain the weak, lose patience with none.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ Take care that none of you ever return evil for evil, but always pursue what is kind to one another and to all.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:18 @ Give thanks in every circumstance, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace consecrate you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept altogether faultless until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ He who calls you is faithful; he will fulfil my prayer.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I adjure you, in the name of the Lord, to have this letter read to all the brothers.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace to you, and peace from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ I ought always to thank God for you, brothers, as is fitting because of the abundant growth of your faith and of the overflowing love with which every one of you is filled toward one another.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ So that I myself am boasting about you among the churches of God, boasting of the stedfastness and faith which you are displaying in all the troubles and afflictions which you are enduring.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ They are an evidence of the righteous judgment of God, who will count you worthy of his kingdom, in behalf of which you are even now suffering.

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ For truly Gods justice must render back trouble to those who are troubling you,

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and give to you, who are now troubled, rest, along with me at the unveiling "apocalypse" of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with his mighty angels,

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes to be glorified in his saints, and to be wondered at in all believers, on that Day; (for you also believed our testimony).

mnt@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ To this end I am making my constant prayer for you, beseeching God to make you worthy of your calling, and to fulfil mightily every desire of goodness and effort of faith;

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to meet him, I entreat you, brothers,

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be "quickly shaken out of your wits" and not to be agitated either by a spirit or by a message, or by an epistle purporting to be from me, saying, "The Day of the Lord is at hand."

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you by any means. For it will not come until after the Great Apostasy, and the revealing of the Man of Sin, the son of perdition,

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not recall that I often told you this, when I was with you?

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And now you know what is holding him back, to the end that he may be revealed in his appointed time.

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But for you, brothers, whom the Lord loves, I ought to give thanks to God continually, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation in consecration of the Spirit and belief of the truth.

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ So, brothers, stand fast, and hold fast the teachings which you have been taught by me, whether by word of mouth or by letter.

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good work and word.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, brothers, pray on for me, that Gods word may run swiftly, and be glorified as in your own case,

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful; he will stablish you and guard you from the Evil One.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ Now we have fully fixed our faith on you in the Lord, that you are doing and will continue to do what we enjoin.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ May the Lord incline your hearts to the love of God and to the stedfastness of Christ.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ I summon you, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to shun any brother who leads an idle and disorderly life, which is not according to the rule you received from me.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you know well how you must imitate me. For I did not lead an idle or disorderly life among you;

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ I did not eat my food as a gift from any man, but in toil and travail, night and day, I worked, so that I might not be a burden to any of you.

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

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ But I hear that there are those of your number who are leading idle and disorderly lives, who are not busy, but mere busybodies.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:13 @ But you, brothers, must not grow weary in well-doing.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ And may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with you all.

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

mnt@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I begged you when I was setting out for Macedonia, stay where you are at Ephesus, and instruct certain individuals there not to be teaching heterodoxy,

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

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

mnt@1Timothy:3:15 @ I am writing this to you in case I should be detained, to let you see how you ought to behave in the household of God - the Church of the everliving God, the pillar and mainstay of the truth.

mnt@1Timothy:4:6 @ As you lay all these things before the brothers, you will be a noble minister of Christ Jesus, nourishing yourself in the precepts of the faith and that noble teaching which you have followed.

mnt@1Timothy:4:7 @ Ever reject these profane and old womanish myths; and continually train yourself for the contest of godliness.

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

mnt@1Timothy:4:13 @ Be applying yourself until I come to public reading, preaching, and teaching.

mnt@1Timothy:4:14 @ Never neglect the gift within you, which was given in fulfilment of prophecy at the time of the laying on of hands by the elders.

mnt@1Timothy:4:15 @ Let these things be your care, give yourself wholly to them, so that your progress may be manifest to all.

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

mnt@1Timothy:5:1 @ Do not reprimand an aged man, but continue pleading with him as if he were your father. Treat the young men as brothers,

mnt@1Timothy:5:2 @ the older women as mothers, the younger women as sisters in all purity.

mnt@1Timothy:5:11 @ But exclude from the list the younger widows; for where they have become wanton against Christ, they desire to marry,

mnt@1Timothy:5:14 @ It is my wish, then, that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule their houses, and give no occasion to our adversary for railing.

mnt@1Timothy:5:18 @ For the Scripture says, You must not muzzle an ox when he is treading out the grain, and The worker is worth his wages.

mnt@1Timothy:5:21 @ I charge you solemnly in the presence of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ and of the elect angels, that you observe these things without prejudice against any man, and do nothing out of partiality.

mnt@1Timothy:5:22 @ Never ordain any one hastily, nor take part in the wrong-doing of others. Keep yourself pure.

mnt@1Timothy:5:23 @ Do not continue to drink nothing but water, but take a little wine for your stomachs sake, and your frequent attacks of illness.

mnt@1Timothy:6:11 @ But you, O servant of God, flee from these things, and run after integrity, piety, faith, love, stedfastness, gentleness.

mnt@1Timothy:6:12 @ Keep contending in the noble contest of the faith; seize hold on eternal life, to which you were called when you confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

mnt@1Timothy:6:14 @ I charge you, keep your commission spotless and irreproachable until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Timothy:6:20 @ O, Timothy, guard the treasure which is committed to you. Shun the profane babblings and contradictions of the falsely called "knowledge"

mnt@1Timothy:6:21 @ which some professing have erred from the faith. Grace be with you.

mnt@2Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my beloved child; Grace mercy, and peace to you from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

mnt@2Timothy:1:3 @ I give thanks to God whom I worship with a pure conscience as my fathers did, when I remember you unceasingly in my prayers.

mnt@2Timothy:1:4 @ Night and day when I recall your tears I am longing to see you, that my happiness may be complete.

mnt@2Timothy:1:5 @ I have been reminded of that sincere faith which is in your heart; which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice, and, I am fully persuaded, dwells in you also.

mnt@2Timothy:1:6 @ For this reason let me remind you to keep ever blazing that gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

mnt@2Timothy:1:13 @ Hold fast the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from me in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

mnt@2Timothy:1:14 @ Guard the glorious trust which has been committed to you by the aid of the Holy Spirit who makes his home in us.

mnt@2Timothy:1:15 @ You already know that all the Christians in Roman Asia forsook me, among them Phygellus and Hermogenes.

mnt@2Timothy:1:18 @ The Lord grant him to find mercy form the Lord in that Day! And you know better than I how many services he rendered in Ephesus.

mnt@2Timothy:2:1 @ Do you then, my son, strengthen you heart in the grace which is in Christ Jesus.

mnt@2Timothy:2:2 @ The teachings which you have heard from me, attested by many witnesses, deliver into the keeping of faithful men, who in their turn will be able to teach others also.

mnt@2Timothy:2:3 @ Take your share in suffering as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

mnt@2Timothy:2:7 @ Reflect on what I am telling you. The Lord will give you understanding in everything.

mnt@2Timothy:2:15 @ Strive earnestly to present yourself unto God, tested and proved worthy by trial, a workman unashamed, ever cutting a straight path for the message of the truth.

mnt@2Timothy:2:22 @ Flee from the passions of youth, but run after righteousness, faith, love, and peace, in company with those who out of a pure heart call upon the Lord.

mnt@2Timothy:2:23 @ Ever shun foolish and puerile discussions, for you know that they lead to quarrels.

mnt@2Timothy:3:10 @ But you, Timothy, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aims, my faith, patience, love, endurance,

mnt@2Timothy:3:11 @ as well as the persecutions and sufferings which befell me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. You know all the persecutions I endured, and how the Lord delivered me out of them all!

mnt@2Timothy:3:14 @ But do you hold fast what you have learned and have held to be true. You know those from whom you have learned it,

mnt@2Timothy:3:15 @ and how from a child you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

mnt@2Timothy:4:1 @ I adjure you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is about to judge the living and the dead - by his appearing and his kingdom, I adjure you -;11 Luke only is with me. Pick up Mark, and bring him with you, for he is useful to me in my ministry.

mnt@2Timothy:4:5 @ But as for you, be always self-controlled, face hardships, do the work of a missionary, discharge all the duties of your ministry.

mnt@2Timothy:4:9 @ Do your best to come to me speedily,

mnt@2Timothy:4:13 @ When you come, bring the cloak I left in Troas with Carpus; also my books, but especially my parchments.

mnt@2Timothy:4:15 @ Be also on your guard against him, for he has violently opposed my arguments.

mnt@2Timothy:4:21 @ Do try to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, and so do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brotherhood.

mnt@2Timothy:4:22 @ The Lord Jesus be with your spirit. Grace be with you all.

mnt@Titus:1:5 @ I left you in Crete for this reason, that you might set right the things left unfinished, and appoint presbyters in every city as I had instructed you;

mnt@Titus:2:4 @ They should train the younger women to love their husbands and children,

mnt@Titus:2:6 @ The younger men exhort to be sober-minded; in every respect showing yourself an example of good works.

mnt@Titus:2:7 @ In your teaching be serious and sincere.

mnt@Titus:2:8 @ Let the instruction that you give be sound and above reproach, so that our opponents may be ashamed because they find no evil things to say about us.

mnt@Titus:2:15 @ Thus speak, exhort, reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.

mnt@Titus:3:8 @ This saying is trustworthy. On this I want you to firmly insist; that those who have faith in God must be careful to maintain honest occupations. Such counsels are good and profitable for men.

mnt@Titus:3:11 @ you may be sure that such a man is perverted and sinning, and is self-condemned.

mnt@Titus:3:12 @ As soon as I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, join me in Nicopolis as quickly as you can, for I have arranged to winter there.

mnt@Titus:3:15 @ All who are with us salute you. Salute those who love me in faith. Grace be with you all.

mnt@Philemon:1:3 @ Grace and peace be to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Philemon:1:4 @ I am ever mentioning you in my prayers, and giving thanks to God,

mnt@Philemon:1:5 @ because I am hearing of your love and of the faith which you hold, not only toward the Lord Jesus Christ, but toward all the saints.

mnt@Philemon:1:6 @ And I pray that your participation may become effectual, as you come to acknowledge every good thing which is in you to Christ.

mnt@Philemon:1:7 @ For I have great joy and comfort in your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed.

mnt@Philemon:1:8 @ And so, although I might be bold in Christ to dictate to you what is fitting,

mnt@Philemon:1:9 @ yet for loves sake, I rather beseech you, I, Paul, an old man, and now a prisoner for Christ Jesus!

mnt@Philemon:1:10 @ I beseech you for my son, Onesimus, whom I have begotten in these chains.

mnt@Philemon:1:11 @ Once you found him "unprofitable," but now he is "profitable" to you and to me.

mnt@Philemon:1:12 @ I am sending him back to you, he himself, that is, my very heart!

mnt@Philemon:1:13 @ I could wish to retain him at my side, so that he might minister to me in your stead, in my bonds for the gospel.

mnt@Philemon:1:14 @ But without your consent I was unwilling to do anything, so that your kindness to me might be of your own free will, and not of compulsion.

mnt@Philemon:1:15 @ Perhaps for this reason you were separated from him for an hour, in order that you might have him back forever,

mnt@Philemon:1:16 @ no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, as a brother beloved; especially dear to me, but how much more to you, both as a man and a fellow Christian.

mnt@Philemon:1:17 @ If then you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me.

mnt@Philemon:1:18 @ And if he has wronged you at all, or is owing you anything, charge that to me.

mnt@Philemon:1:19 @ I Paul am writing this in my own handwriting, "I will repay you." But I will not mention that you owe me, over and over, your very soul.

mnt@Philemon:1:20 @ Come my brother, let me have joy in the Lord because of you! Refresh my heart in Christ!

mnt@Philemon:1:21 @ Because I am thoroughly persuaded of your obedience, I have written you, knowing full well that you will do by me what I am asking.

mnt@Philemon:1:22 @ Please also prepare for me a lodging, for I am hoping by your prayers to be restored to you again.

mnt@Philemon:1:23 @ Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you greeting;

mnt@Philemon:1:25 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

mnt@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brothers, comrades of a heavenly calling, fix your thoughts then upon Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession.

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

mnt@Hebrews:3:8 @ Continue not to harden your hearts as in the Provocation, On the day of temptation in the wilderness,

mnt@Hebrews:3:9 @ When your forefathers tried my forbearance And saw my deeds for forty years.

mnt@Hebrews:3:12 @ See to it, brothers, that there shall never be in any one of you an evil and unbelieving heart, manifesting itself in apostasy from the living God.

mnt@Hebrews:3:13 @ On the contrary, encourage each other daily, so long as there is a "Today," so that no one of you is hindered by the deceitfulness of sin.

mnt@Hebrews:3:15 @ In the words of Scripture, Today, if you hear his voice, Do not continue to harden your hearts as at the Provocation.

mnt@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear that they should never enter into his rest, if not to those who had proved faithless? So you see that it was through unbelief that they were not able to enter in.

mnt@Hebrews:4:1 @ Let us be on our guard, then, though there is a promise still standing of being admitted to his rest, lest any one of you should be found to have come short of it.

mnt@Hebrews:4:7 @ he again fixes a day, saying long afterward by Davids lips, in words already quoted, Today if you hear his voice, Continue not to harden your hearts.

mnt@Hebrews:5:11 @ Concerning him I have much to say, and much that is hard to make clear to you, because you have grown dull of hearing.

mnt@Hebrews:5:12 @ And this too, although you ought by this time to be teaching others, you are still needing some one to teach you the very rudiments of divine revelation. You need milk, not solid food.

mnt@Hebrews:6:9 @ But though we thus speak, we are persuaded better things of you, beloved, and things that accompany salvation.

mnt@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you showed for his cause, in sending help to your fellow Christians, as you are still doing.

mnt@Hebrews:6:11 @ but I am longing that each of you continue to show the same diligence to realize the fulness of your hope, even to the end.

mnt@Hebrews:6:14 @ Surely I will bless you, and bless you; I will increase you, and increase you.

mnt@Hebrews:8:5 @ those priests who serve a mere outline and shadow of the heavenly reality, just as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to build the Tabernacle. "See", he says, "that you make everything on the pattern showed you on the mountain."

mnt@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through his eternal spirit offered himself free from blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works unto the service of an ever-living God!

mnt@Hebrews:9:20 @ saying, This is the blood of that testament which God commanded in regard to you.

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

mnt@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much surer, think you, will be the punishment of one who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has profaned that covenant blood with which he was sanctified, and has done despite to the spirit of grace?

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

mnt@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you did sympathize with the prisoners, and you did take joyfully the confiscation of your goods; conscious that you had for yourselves greater, even lasting possessions.

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

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

mnt@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it had been said, It is through Isaac that your posterity will be traced.

mnt@Hebrews:12:3 @ Compare yourselves with him who endured such hostility against himself at the hands of sinners, lest you grow weary, fainting in your souls.

mnt@Hebrews:12:4 @ Not yet have you resisted unto blood in your fight against sin;

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

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

mnt@Hebrews:12:8 @ If you are left without discipline, in which all children share, then are you bastards and not sons.

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

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

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

mnt@Hebrews:12:15 @ Look carefully that there be no one who falls back from the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springs up to trouble you, and by its means many become defiled.

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

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

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

mnt@Hebrews:12:22 @ On the contrary you are come to Mount Zion, the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to innumerable hosts of angels,

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

mnt@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in prison, as if you were fellow prisoners; remember too, those who are being ill-treated, since you too, are in the body.

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

mnt@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your leaders, the men who spoke the message of God to you; consider the issue of their lives, and imitate their faith.

mnt@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not allow yourselves to be swept away by various and strange teachings. For it is a beautiful thing to be established in heart by grace, and not by regulations regarding food, from which those that occupied themselves with them have derived no benefit.

mnt@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who must give account; that they may do thus with joy and not with lamentation, for this would be unprofitable to you.

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

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

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

mnt@Hebrews:13:23 @ You know that our brother Timothy has been set free. If he comes soon, I will see him with you.

mnt@Hebrews:13:24 @ Salute all your leaders and the saints. The brothers from Italy send you greeting.

mnt@Hebrews:13:25 @ Grace be with you all, Amen.

mnt@James:1:2 @ My brothers, when you are beset by various temptations, count it all joy,

mnt@James:1:3 @ because you know that the testing of your faith is working out endurance.

mnt@James:1:4 @ But let endurance have its perfect work, so that you may be perfect and entire, not lacking in anything.

mnt@James:1:5 @ If any one of you is lacking in wisdom, let him ask it from the God who gives to all men freely and without upbraiding; and it will be given to him.

mnt@James:1:21 @ So strip off all filthiness and superfluity of wickedness, and in meekness receive the implanted Word, which is able to save your souls.

mnt@James:1:22 @ And become doers of the Word, and not merely hearers, deceiving yourselves.

mnt@James:2:2 @ Suppose a man comes into your synagogue with a gold ring and dazzling clothes, and suppose a poor man comes in, also, in shabby clothes,

mnt@James:2:3 @ and you look up to him who wears the fine clothing, and say to him, "Sit here in this fine place!" and to the poor man you say, "Stand there!" or "Sit on the floor at my feet!"

mnt@James:2:4 @ are you not drawing distinctions among yourselves, and have you not become judges with evil thoughts?

mnt@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you to court?

mnt@James:2:7 @ Are they not blaspheming that glorious Name by which you are called?

mnt@James:2:8 @ If you are keeping the royal law, which says, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thou dost thyself, you are doing well.

mnt@James:2:9 @ If you have the spirit of caste you are committing sin, and are convicted by the Law as transgressors.

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

mnt@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, find warmth and food for yourselves," but at the same time you do not give the necessaries of the body, what good would that do them?

mnt@James:2:18 @ Some one indeed may say, "You have faith, and I have deeds." "Then show me your faith," I answer, "apart from any deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds."

mnt@James:2:19 @ You believe that God is one? You do well; even the demons believe, and they shudder.

mnt@James:2:20 @ But do you want to be convinced, O foolish man, that faith apart from deeds is barren?

mnt@James:2:22 @ You see how faith was cooperating with deeds, and faith was made perfect by deeds.

mnt@James:2:24 @ You see, then, that it is by his deeds a man is justified, and not simply by his faith.

mnt@James:3:1 @ Do not become many teachers, my brothers, because you know well that we teachers shall be judged by a severer standard than others.

mnt@James:3:13 @ Who among you is wise and intelligent? Let him show his deeds by his good life, in the meekness of wisdom.

mnt@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, do not be boasting of that, and be false to the truth.

mnt@James:4:1 @ Where do the conflicts and quarrels that go on among you come from? Do they not come from your passions which are always making war among your bodily members?

mnt@James:4:2 @ You continually crave and do not obtain; you are killing and coveting and cannot acquire; you are fighting and at war. You do not have, because you do not ask.

mnt@James:4:3 @ You continue to ask and do not receive, because you are asking with a wrong purpose, in order to spend it upon your pleasures.

mnt@James:4:4 @ You adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity to God? Whoever, then, desires to be a friend of the world, makes himself and enemy of God.

mnt@James:4:5 @ Or do you suppose that it is in vain that the Scripture says, "The spirit which has its home in us yearns over us unto jealousy?"

mnt@James:4:7 @ So then ever be subject to God, Ever resist the devil and he will flee from you.

mnt@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God And he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, And purify your hearts, you double-minded.

mnt@James:4:9 @ Lament and mourn, and weep aloud! Let your laughter be turned into mourning, And your joy into gloom!

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

mnt@James:4:11 @ Do not be talking against each other, brothers. He who is talking against a brother and condemning his brothers is talking against the Law and condemning the Law. But if you are condemning the Law, you are not a doer of the Law, but a judge.

mnt@James:4:12 @ But One is your Lawgiver and Judge - he who is able to save and to destroy. But you, who are you, to be condemning your neighbor?

mnt@James:4:13 @ Go to now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we shall journey to such a city and spend a year there, and trade and make money,"

mnt@James:4:14 @ when all the time you do not know what will happen on the morrow. For what is your life? You are but a mist, appearing for a brief time, and then vanishing.

mnt@James:4:15 @ You ought instead to say, "If the Lord wills it, we shall live and do this or that."

mnt@James:4:16 @ But now you are glorying in these insolent boastings of yours; all such glorying is evil.

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

mnt@James:5:2 @ For your riches lie rotting, and your clothing has become moth-eaten.

mnt@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver are rusted. and their rust will be for a testimony against you, and it will eat your flesh. For you have been storing up fire in these last days!

mnt@James:5:4 @ Look! the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have been keeping back by fraud, are crying aloud! And the cries of the reapers have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth!

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

mnt@James:5:6 @ You have condemned, you have murdered the righteous man unresisting!

mnt@James:5:8 @ So you also must be patient. Stablish your hearts; for the coming of the Lord is at hand!

mnt@James:5:9 @ Do not make complaints against each other, brothers, lest you yourselves be condemned. Behold the Judge is standing before the very door!

mnt@James:5:11 @ Remember we count those that were stedfast happy. You have heard of the stedfastness of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord with him, seen how the Lord is full of tenderness.

mnt@James:5:12 @ Again, above all things, my brothers, swear not at all, neither by the heavens, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath. Let your "yes" be "yes," and your "no," "no," so you will not fall under condemnation.

mnt@James:5:13 @ Is any one of you in trouble? Let him pray.

mnt@James:5:14 @ Is any in good spirits? Let him sing unto his harp. Is any one of you ill? Let him send for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, after anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

mnt@James:5:16 @ So confess your sins one to another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. For the fervent prayer of a righteous man is mighty in its working.

mnt@James:5:19 @ My brothers, if any one of you strays from the truth, and some one brings him back,

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

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

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

mnt@1Peter:1:7 @ These are in order that the test of your faith, more precious than gold that is perishable and yet is tested by fire, may redound to praise and glory and honor, at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Peter:1:8 @ Him you love, though you have never seen him; in him you ever believe, though even now you see him not, and you are rejoicing with joy unspeakable and full of glory,

mnt@1Peter:1:9 @ as you continually receive the reward of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

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

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

mnt@1Peter:1:13 @ So then brace up your minds, be steady in spirit, and fix your hope firmly in the grace that is coming to you, at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

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

mnt@1Peter:1:15 @ but become yourselves holy in your whole manner of living, as He who has called you is holy,

mnt@1Peter:1:16 @ as the Scripture says, You shall be holy, because I am holy.

mnt@1Peter:1:17 @ And since you call upon him as Father, who impartially judges each one according to his deeds, pass the time of your sojourning here in reverence.

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

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

mnt@1Peter:1:21 @ Through him you believe in God who raised him from the dead and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope are now in God.

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

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

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

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

mnt@1Peter:2:3 @ since you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.

mnt@1Peter:2:5 @ And yourselves like living stones be built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood offering spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God, through Christ Jesus.

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

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

mnt@1Peter:2:10 @ you who once were not a people, but now are the people of God; who were once without mercy, but now you have found mercy.

mnt@1Peter:2:11 @ I beseech you, beloved, as pilgrims and exiles, to abstain from passions of the flesh that war upon your souls.

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

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

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

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

mnt@1Peter:2:18 @ Household slaves, submit yourselves to your masters in all reverence; not only to the kind and gentle, but also to the unreasonable.

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

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

mnt@1Peter:2:24 @ He bore our sins in his own body upon the tree, in order that we might become dead to sins, and be alive unto righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

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

mnt@1Peter:3:1 @ In the same way you wives must be submissive to your own husbands; so that if some of them will not believe the message, they may apart from the message be won over by the behavior of their wives,

mnt@1Peter:3:2 @ when they see how pure and reverent you are.

mnt@1Peter:3:3 @ Your adornment ought not to be the outward adornment of plaited hair and golden jewels and the wearing of beautiful dresses;

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

mnt@1Peter:3:7 @ In the same way you husbands live with your wives, according to knowledge, honoring your wife as of the weaker sex, yet as an heir with yourself of the grace of life; so that your prayers may not be hindered.

mnt@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, you should all be harmonious, sympathetic, loving as brothers, tender-hearted, humble-minded;

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

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

mnt@1Peter:3:14 @ But even if you should suffer in behalf of righteousness, you are happy. Do not be afraid of their terror, neither be troubled.

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

mnt@1Peter:3:16 @ See that you have a clear conscience, so that, although they speak of you as evil-doers, these libelers of your good Christian lives may be ashamed.

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

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

mnt@1Peter:4:1 @ Since, then, Christ suffered in the flesh, do you also ever arm yourselves with the same mind (because he who has suffered in the flesh has done with sin),

mnt@1Peter:4:2 @ so that in future you may not spend your life in the flesh according to mens desires, but in the will of God.

mnt@1Peter:4:4 @ They are astonished at this, that you do not run into the same excesses of profligacy as they do; and they speak evil of you.

mnt@1Peter:4:12 @ Do not think it strange, beloved, that a fiery ordeal has come to test you, as though some surprising thing had befallen you.

mnt@1Peter:4:13 @ But be glad in the degree in which you share in the sufferings of Christ; so that when his glory shall be revealed, you too may be glad with triumphant gladness.

mnt@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are being reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the spirit of glory and of God is resting upon you.

mnt@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evil-doer, or as a spy upon other peoples business.

mnt@1Peter:5:1 @ Now to you who are presbyters I make this appeal; for I am myself a presbyter, and was a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory about to be revealed.

mnt@1Peter:5:2 @ Be shepherds to your flock of God; take charge of them willingly, and not through compulsion; not for filthy lucre, but with a willing mind;

mnt@1Peter:5:3 @ not by way of lording it over your heritage, but by becoming examples to the flock.

mnt@1Peter:5:4 @ Then, when the Chief Shepherd shall appear, you too will receive the fadeless wreath of glory.

mnt@1Peter:5:5 @ You younger men must submit to the presbyters; and all of you must put on the garment of humility and serve one another, for God resists the haughty, But gives grace to the humble.

mnt@1Peter:5:6 @ So humble yourselves under Gods mighty hand, so that he may exalt you in due time.

mnt@1Peter:5:7 @ Cast all your care upon him, for he ever cares for you.

mnt@1Peter:5:8 @ Be temperate, be vigilant; because your enemy, the devil, is prowling about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

mnt@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, standing firm in the faith, knowing well that the same afflictions are being accomplished in your brothers that are in the world.

mnt@1Peter:5:10 @ But the God of all grace, who has called us by Christ Jesus to share his eternal glory, will, after you have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

mnt@1Peter:5:12 @ By Sylvanus, a faithful brother of yours, as I suppose, I have written you briefly, to comfort you, and to testify that this is the true grace of God. In this stand fast.

mnt@1Peter:5:13 @ Your sister church in Babylon, elect with you, sends you salutations, and so does Marcus, my son.

mnt@1Peter:5:14 @ Salute one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you all who are in Christ Jesus.

mnt@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace and peace be multiplied to you by the God and Father of Jesus our Lord.

mnt@2Peter:1:4 @ By these he has granted his promises to us, precious and splendid; so that through them you may become partners of the divine nature, now that you have escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

mnt@2Peter:1:5 @ For this very reason do your best to add to your faith manliness, and to manliness knowledge,

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

mnt@2Peter:1:10 @ So, brothers, take diligent care to make your calling and election sure; for if you do this, you will never stumble.

mnt@2Peter:1:11 @ For so the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ will be richly supplied to you.

mnt@2Peter:1:12 @ I shall therefore be always ready to remind you of all this, even though you know it, and are firmly founded in the truth which is with you.

mnt@2Peter:1:13 @ So I think it right, as long as I am in this "tent," to rouse you by way of reminding you,

mnt@2Peter:1:15 @ So I will do my best to enable you, even after my departure, continually to call these things to mind.

mnt@2Peter:1:16 @ For we were not following cunningly devised fables, when we told you of the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eye-witnesses of his Majesty.

mnt@2Peter:1:19 @ And so we possess the word of prophecy made yet more sure. Unto this you do well to give heed as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

mnt@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were false prophets, too, among the people, just as among you also there will be false teachers. These will secretly bring in destructive sects, denying even the Master who bought them, and bringing swift ruin upon themselves.

mnt@2Peter:2:3 @ In their covetousness, with cunning words, they will make merchandise of you; those whose doom has not been idle from of old, and whose destruction has not been slumbering.

mnt@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong as the wage of wrong which they have done. These are men who count it pleasure to carouse in open daylight; they are spots and blemishes reveling in their deceit, even while they are feasting with you.

mnt@2Peter:3:1 @ This is now my second letter to you, beloved. In both of them I am stirring up your pure minds by putting you in remembrance.

mnt@2Peter:3:2 @ I want you to recollect the words that were foretold by the holy prophets, and the command of your Lord and Saviour, given you through your apostles.

mnt@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord does not loiter over his promise, as some men esteem loitering; but he is longsuffering toward you, not purposing that any should perish, but that all should pass on to repentance.

mnt@2Peter:3:11 @ Now since all things are in the process of dissolution, what kind of men ought you to be, in all holy living and piety;

mnt@2Peter:3:12 @ while you look for and hasten the coming of the Day of God. At its coming the heavens, being on fire, will be dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt with fervent heat.

mnt@2Peter:3:14 @ And so, beloved, since you are looking for these things, continually give diligence that you may be found in peace, unspotted and blameless in his sight.

mnt@2Peter:3:15 @ Regard our Lords longsuffering as salvation; even as our dear brother Paul also wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him.

mnt@2Peter:3:17 @ Do you therefore, beloved, because you know these things beforehand, be on your guard lest you be led astray by the error of the wicked, and so fall from your own stedfastness.

mnt@1John:1:2 @ And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us.

mnt@1John:1:3 @ It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

mnt@1John:1:4 @ And we are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.

mnt@1John:1:5 @ This, then, is the message that we have heard from him, and are announcing to you, that God is light, and no darkness what ever is in him.

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

mnt@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, nay, and old commandment, which you have had from the beginning. That old commandment is the message to which you have listened.

mnt@1John:2:8 @ Yet again it is a new commandment which I am writing to you, which is true in him and is you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

mnt@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because you sins are forgiven you for his names sake.

mnt@1John:2:13 @ I am writing to you, fathers, because you have come to know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have fully overcome the Evil One. I have written to you, little children, because you have learned to know the father.

mnt@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, because you have learned to know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God is abiding in you, and you have fully overcome the Evil One.

mnt@1John:2:18 @ My children, this is the last hour, and as you have heard that an antichrist was coming, and now many antichrists are already risen, whence we may know that it is the last hour.

mnt@1John:2:20 @ Now you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

mnt@1John:2:21 @ I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and know that no lie is of the truth.

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

mnt@1John:2:24 @ If what you have heard from the beginning is abiding in you, you also will ever abide in the Son and in the Father.

mnt@1John:2:26 @ I have written this to you concerning those who would lead you astray.

mnt@1John:2:27 @ As to you, the unction you received from him remains ever in you, and you need no teaching from any one. But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true, and is no lie, abide continually in him, as it has taught you to do.

mnt@1John:2:29 @ If you know that he is righteous you know also that every one who habitually practises righteousness has been born of him.

mnt@1John:3:5 @ And you know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin.

mnt@1John:3:7 @ My children, let no one deceive you; he who is working righteousness is righteous, just as he is righteous.

mnt@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message that you have listened to from the beginning, "WE ARE TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER."

mnt@1John:3:13 @ Do not wonder, brothers, if the world continues to hate you.

mnt@1John:3:15 @ Every one who is hating his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

mnt@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God; every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is from God;

mnt@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit which confesses him not, is not from God. And this is that spirit of Antichrist of which you have heard that it is coming, and that now it is already in the world.

mnt@1John:4:4 @ My little children, you are of God and have conquered them; because he that is within you is greater than he that is in the world.

mnt@1John:4:6 @ But you are of God. He who is beginning to know God listens to us; he who is not of God does not listen to us. By this we may distinguish the spirit of truth from the spirit of error.

mnt@1John:5:13 @ I have written these words to you so that you may know that you have eternal life, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.

mnt@1John:5:21 @ My little children, guard yourselves from idols.

mnt@2John:1:2 @ I love you for the sake of the truth which is abiding in us and will be with us forever.

mnt@2John:1:4 @ I am greatly rejoiced to find some of your children leading their lives in truth, even as we received commandment from the Father.

mnt@2John:1:5 @ And now I am entreating you, Lady, not as though I were writing some new commandment to you, but one which we have had from the beginning, let us love one another.

mnt@2John:1:6 @ And this is love, that we should lead our lives according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should pass your life in love.

mnt@2John:1:8 @ Watch yourselves, that you do not lose what we have wrought, but that you receive a full reward.

mnt@2John:1:10 @ If any one come to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, nor give him any greeting.

mnt@2John:1:12 @ I have many things to write to you, but I would not write them with paper and ink. I hope to come to you and to talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.

mnt@2John:1:13 @ The children of your elect sister send you greeting.

mnt@3John:1:2 @ I pray that you may prosper, beloved, in every way, and be in good health, even as your soul is prospering.

mnt@3John:1:3 @ For I was glad when brothers came and bore testimony to your truth, as indeed you are passing your life in truth.

mnt@3John:1:5 @ You are acting faithfully, beloved, in whatever you are doing for the brothers and the strangers.

mnt@3John:1:6 @ They have borne testimony to your love before the church. You will do well to speed them on their way worthily of God;

mnt@3John:1:12 @ All men bear testimony to Demetrius, and so does the truth itself. I also bear testimony to him; and you know that my testimony is true.

mnt@3John:1:13 @ I have a great deal to write to you, but I do not want to write you with pen and ink.

mnt@3John:1:14 @ I am hoping soon to see you, and then we shall talk face to face. Peace be to you! The friends send their salutation. Salute the friends by name.

mnt@Jude:1:2 @ May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.

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

mnt@Jude:1:5 @ I wish to remind you of what you already know right well, that although the Lord once saved a people out of the land of Egypt, he afterward destroyed those who did not believe;

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

mnt@Jude:1:12 @ These are they who are stains upon your love-feasts; when they feast sumptuously without scruple, looking after none but themselves. They are clouds without water, driven along by the winds; trees of autumn, fruitless, doubly dead, torn up by the roots,

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

mnt@Jude:1:18 @ how they used to say to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will be led only by their godless passions."

mnt@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, continually building yourselves up on your most holy faith, and ever praying in the Holy Spirit,

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

mnt@Jude:1:24 @ Now unto Him who has power to guard you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of his glory, faultless and exultant,
