tcent@Romans:7:6 @ But now, by dying to what once held us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

tcent@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, finding opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetous desire. For apart from the law sin lies dead.

tcent@Romans:7:9 @ I was once alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.

tcent@Romans:7:13 @ Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But it was sin, working death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be recognized as sin, so that through the commandment sin might become sinful beyond measure.

tcent@Romans:7:14 @ We know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.

tcent@Romans:7:15 @ I do not understand what I do. For I do not do what I want to do, but I do what I hate.

tcent@Romans:7:17 @ So then, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.

tcent@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will to do what is good, but I cannot do it.

tcent@Romans:7:19 @ For I do not do the good I want to do; but the evil I do not want to do is what I do.

tcent@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.

tcent@Romans:7:23 @ but I see in my members another law, at war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members.

tcent@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I of myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

tcent@Romans:8:4 @ in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

tcent@Romans:8:5 @ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

tcent@Romans:8:6 @ To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

tcent@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, you are in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ he does not belong to him.

tcent@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, although your body is dead because of sin, your spirit is alive because of righteousness.

tcent@Romans:8:13 @ For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

tcent@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship by whom we cry out, »Abba, Father.«

tcent@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will, but by the will of him who subjected it in hope;

tcent@Romans:8:23 @ And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

tcent@Romans:8:24 @ For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees?

tcent@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

tcent@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.

tcent@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all, how will he not also give us all things with him?

tcent@Romans:9:6 @ But it is not as though the word of God had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel,

tcent@Romans:9:7 @ nor are they all children of Abraham because they are his descendants; but, »Through Isaac shall your descendants be named.«

tcent@Romans:9:8 @ In other words, it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are reckoned as descendants.

tcent@Romans:9:10 @ And not only so, but also when Rebecca had conceived children by one man, our father Isaac,

tcent@Romans:9:11 @ though the twins were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad, in order that God's purpose of election might stand, not because of works but because of his call,

tcent@Romans:9:16 @ So it depends not upon man's will or exertion, but upon God's mercy.

tcent@Romans:9:20 @ But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is formed say to him who formed it, »Why have you made me like this?«

tcent@Romans:9:24 @ even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles?

tcent@Romans:9:31 @ but Israel, who pursued the law of righteousness, has not attained that law.

tcent@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were by works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone,

tcent@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but it is not according to knowledge.

tcent@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness based on faith says, »Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’« (that is, to bring Christ down)

tcent@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? (that is, the word of faith which we preach);

tcent@Romans:10:16 @ But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, »Lord, who has believed our message?«

tcent@Romans:10:18 @ But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have; for

tcent@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaiah is very bold and says,

tcent@Romans:10:21 @ But of Israel he says, »All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.«

tcent@Romans:11:4 @ But what is God's reply to him? »I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.«

tcent@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel did not obtain what it sought. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened,

tcent@Romans:11:11 @ So I ask, have they stumbled so as to fall? Certainly not! But through their trespass salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make Israel jealous.

tcent@Romans:11:15 @ For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?

tcent@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast over the branches. If you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

tcent@Romans:11:20 @ That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast only by faith. So do not be proud, but stand in awe.

tcent@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore consider the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who fell, but kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off.

tcent@Romans:11:28 @ As regards the gospel they are enemies of God, for your sake; but as regards election they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers.

tcent@Romans:11:30 @ Just as you were once disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience,

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

tcent@Romans:12:3 @ For by the grace given to me I say to every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him.

tcent@Romans:12:13 @ Contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality.

tcent@Romans:12:16 @ Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited.

tcent@Romans:12:17 @ Repay no one evil for evil, but have regard for what is noble in the sight of all.

tcent@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God; for it is written, »Vengeance is mine, I will repay,« says the Lord.

tcent@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

tcent@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to have no fear of him who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will have praise from him.

tcent@Romans:13:4 @ For he is God's servant to you for good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is God’s servant, an avenger to execute wrath on the wrongdoer.

tcent@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore one must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for the sake of conscience.

tcent@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.

tcent@Romans:14:1 @ As for the man who is weak in faith, accept him, but not for disputes over opinions.

tcent@Romans:14:2 @ One believes he may eat anything, but the man whose faith is weak eats only vegetables.

tcent@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another anymore, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in our brother’s way.

tcent@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.

tcent@Romans:14:17 @ For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit;

tcent@Romans:14:20 @ Do not, for the sake of food, destroy the work of God. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.

tcent@Romans:14:23 @ But he who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not act from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.

tcent@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, »The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.«

tcent@Romans:15:15 @ But I have written very boldly to you on some points, so as to remind you again, because of the grace that was given me from God,

tcent@Romans:15:21 @ but as it is written:

tcent@Romans:15:23 @ But now, since I no longer have any place for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you,

tcent@Romans:15:26 @ For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.

tcent@Romans:16:4 @ who risked their necks for my life, to whom not only I but also all the churches of the Gentiles give thanks;

tcent@Romans:16:18 @ For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth and flattering words they deceive the hearts of the simple.

tcent@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience has become known to all, so I am full of joy over you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil.

tcent@Romans:16:26 @ but is now revealed and made known to all nations through the prophetic writings, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith—

tcent@1Corinthians:1:10 @ I appeal to you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same judgment.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:23 @ but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews a stumbling block and to Gentiles foolishness,

tcent@1Corinthians:1:24 @ but to those who are the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong,

tcent@1Corinthians:2:4 @ and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

tcent@1Corinthians:2:5 @ so that your faith might not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and which God destined for our glory before the ages.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But, as it is written,

tcent@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand the things freely given to us by God.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:13 @ This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:15 @ But the spiritual man judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:16 @ But we have the mind of Christ.

tcent@1Corinthians:3:1 @ But I, brethren, could not address you as spiritual men, but as carnal men, as infants in Christ.

tcent@1Corinthians:3:6 @ I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth.

tcent@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.

tcent@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it.

tcent@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by any human court; I do not even judge myself.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:4 @ I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not acquitted by this. It is the Lord who judges me.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men's hearts. Then every man will receive his praise from God.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are distinguished, but we are without honor.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write this to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I will find out, not the words of these arrogant people, but their power.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:20 @ For the kingdom of God does not consist in talk but in power.

tcent@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Let us, therefore, celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

tcent@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any one who bears the name of brother if he is an immoral person, or greedy, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler—not even to eat with such a one.

tcent@1Corinthians:6:6 @ but brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers?

tcent@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

tcent@1Corinthians:6:12 @ »All things are lawful for me,« but not all things are helpful. »All things are lawful for me,« but I will not be mastered by anything.

tcent@1Corinthians:6:13 @ »Food is for the stomach and the stomach for food«—but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

tcent@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who unites himself with the Lord is one spirit with him.

tcent@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:2 @ But because of immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:4 @ The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:7 @ I wish that all men were as I myself am. But each man has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarried and to the widows that it is good for them if they remain even as I.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry; for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:10 @ To the married I give charge, not I but the Lord, that the wife should not separate from her husband

tcent@1Corinthians:7:11 @ (but if she does leave, she must remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband should not divorce his wife.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I say, not the Lord, that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he must not divorce her.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified through her husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but as it is they are holy.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving partner leaves, let him do so; in such a case the brother or sister is not bound. For God has called us to peace.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:19 @ Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what counts.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you a slave when you were called? Do not let it trouble you—but if you can gain your freedom, do so.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning virgins, I have no command of the Lord, but I give my opinion as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But if you marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Yet those who marry will have troubles in this flesh, and I am trying to spare you.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:32 @ But I want you to be free from concern. One who is unmarried is concerned about the affairs of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;

tcent@1Corinthians:7:33 @ but a married man is concerned about the affairs of the world, how he may please his wife,

tcent@1Corinthians:7:34 @ and his interests are divided. The unmarried woman, and the virgin, is concerned about the affairs of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but the married woman is concerned about the affairs of the world, how she may please her husband.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:35 @ This I say for your own benefit, not to put a restraint upon you, but to promote what is good and to secure undivided devotion to the Lord.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any man thinks that he is not acting properly toward his betrothed, if she is past her youth, and if it must be so, let him do what he wishes, he does not sin; let them marry.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:37 @ But he who stands firm in his heart, being under no constraint, but has control over his own will, and has decided this in his own heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is; and I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning food sacrificed to idols: we know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:3 @ But if anyone loves God, he is known by him.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Therefore concerning the eating of food sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:6 @ yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we exist.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, being accustomed to idols, eat food as really sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food will not commend us to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing this in the hope that you will do such things for me. I would rather die than have anyone deprive me of my ground for boasting.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this voluntarily, I have a reward; but if it is not of my will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those who are without law, I became as one without law, though not being without the law of God but under the law of Christ, so that I might win those who are without the law.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man. And God is faithful, who will not let you be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:20 @ No, but I say that the things pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:23 @ »All things are lawful,« but not all things are helpful. »All things are lawful,« but not all things build up.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:24 @ Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, »This has been offered in sacrifice,« then do not eat it, both for the sake of the man who informed you and for conscience' sake—

tcent@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I try to please all men in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as if her head were shaved.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, let her cover her head.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:8 @ For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man;

tcent@1Corinthians:11:9 @ neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:15 @ but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But in the following instructions, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:31 @ But if we judged ourselves rightly, we would not be judged.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord so that we will not be condemned along with the world.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:4 @ Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:5 @ And there are varieties of service, but the same Lord.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:6 @ There are varieties of working, but the same God who works all of them in all men.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as he wills.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body is not made up of one member but of many.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has arranged the members in the body, each one of them, just as he desired.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:20 @ As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:24 @ while our more presentable members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving the greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

tcent@1Corinthians:12:25 @ so that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:31 @ But earnestly desire the greater gifts.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:2 @ If I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:3 @ If I give all I have to the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:6 @ it does not rejoice in evil, but rejoices with the truth.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails; but where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:10 @ but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know fully—even as I have been fully known.

tcent@1Corinthians:13:13 @ So now faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For one who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God; for no one understands him, but in his spirit he speaks mysteries.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But everyone who prophesies speaks to men for their edification and encouragement and comfort.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than he who speaks in tongues, unless some one interprets, so that the church may be edified.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I profit you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

tcent@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For you may be giving thanks well enough, but the other man is not edified.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:19 @ but in the church I would rather speak five words with my mind, to instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brethren, do not be children in your thinking; be infants in evil, but in thinking be mature.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers; but prophecy is for believers, not for unbelievers.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an outsider enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all;

tcent@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no interpreter, he must keep silent in the church; and let him speak to himself and to God.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:30 @ But if a revelation is made to another who is sitting, the first one must keep silent.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:34 @ the women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be submissive, as even the law says.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:40 @ But all things should be done decently and in an orderly way.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised;

tcent@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then, at his coming, those who belong to him.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:27 @ »For God has put all things in subjection under his feet.« But when it says, »All things are put in subjection under him,« it is plain that he is excepted who put all things under him.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But someone will ask, »How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?«

tcent@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And that which you sow, you do not sow the body which is to be, but a bare grain, perhaps of wheat or of something else.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to each kind of seed he gives its own body.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:39 @ For not all flesh is the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of birds, and another of fish.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are also heavenly bodies and there are earthly bodies; but the glory of the heavenly is one, and the glory of the earthly is another.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:46 @ However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; and then the spiritual.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,

tcent@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

tcent@1Corinthians:16:5 @ But I will come to you after I go through Macedonia, for I am going through Macedonia;

tcent@1Corinthians:16:8 @ But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,

tcent@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our boast is this: the testimony of our conscience, that with holiness and godly sincerity, not in worldly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and still more toward you.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we write you nothing but what you can read and understand; and I hope you will understand fully,

tcent@2Corinthians:1:18 @ But as surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been Yes and No.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Christ Jesus, who was preached among you by us—by me and Silvanus and Timothy—was not Yes and No, but in him it has always been Yes.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But I call God as my witness that it was in order to spare you that I did not return to Corinth.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we lord it over your faith; but we work with you for your joy, for you stand firm in your faith.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I cause you pain, who is there to make me glad but the one whom I have pained?

tcent@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For I wrote you out of much affliction and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to cause you pain but to let you know the abundant love that I have for you.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if any one has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure—not to put it too severely—to all of you.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:14 @ But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumph, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not, like so many, peddling the word of God; but as men of sincerity, as from God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:3 @ You show that you are a letter from Christ, delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of carnal hearts.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:5 @ Not that we are competent of ourselves to claim anything as coming from ourselves; but our competence is from God,

tcent@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were hardened; for to this day, when they read the old covenant, the same veil remains unlifted, because only in Christ is it removed.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:16 @ But whenever a person turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:5 @ For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:8 @ We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;

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

tcent@2Corinthians:4:12 @ So then death is at work in us, but life in you.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:18 @ while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are unseen are eternal.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed, but to be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men; but what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We are not again commending ourselves to you, but are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you may have an answer for those who take pride in appearance and not in heart.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:15 @ And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

tcent@2Corinthians:6:4 @ But as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: through great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, distresses,

tcent@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted in your own affections.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For even when we came into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were afflicted at every turn—conflicts on the outside and fears within.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:6 @ But God, who comforts the downcast, comforted us by the coming of Titus,

tcent@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:9 @ now I rejoice, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow led you to repentance; for you became sorrowful as God intended, so that you suffered no loss through us.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly sorrow produces a repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but worldly sorrow produces death.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did the wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have boasted to him about you, I was not put to shame; but just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting before Titus has proved true.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And they did not do as we expected, but they first gave themselves to the Lord and to us by the will of God.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:7 @ But as you excel in everything—in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in your love for us—see that you excel in this work of grace also.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I am not speaking this as a command, but I want to test the sincerity of your love by comparing it with the earnestness of others.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this matter I give my advice: it is best for you now to complete what a year ago you began not only to do but to desire.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but at the present time your abundance should supply their need, so that their abundance may supply your need, that there may be equality.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he not only accepted our appeal, but being himself very earnest he is going to you of his own accord.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but he has been appointed by the churches to travel with us in this gracious work which we are carrying on, for the glory of the Lord himself and to show our good will.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:21 @ for we have regard for what is honorable, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And with them we are sending our brother whom we have often proved diligent in many matters, but who is now more diligent than ever because of his great confidence in you.

tcent@2Corinthians:9:3 @ But I am sending the brethren so that our boasting about you may not prove vain in this case, so that you may be ready, as I said you would be;

tcent@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I thought it necessary to urge the brethren to go on to you before me, and arrange in advance for this gift you have promised, so that it may be ready not as an exaction but as a willing gift.

tcent@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the ministry of this service is not only fully supplying the needs of the saints, but is also overflowing through many thanksgivings to God.

tcent@2Corinthians:9:13 @ Because of the test of this service, you will glorify God by your obedience in your confession of the gospel of Christ, and by the generosity of your contribution for them and for all others;

tcent@2Corinthians:10:1 @ I, Paul, myself urge you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ—I who am humble when face to face with you, but bold to you when I am away!—

tcent@2Corinthians:10:4 @ For the weapons of our warfare are not the weapons of the world, but they have divine power to destroy strongholds.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:10 @ For they say, »His letters are weighty and strong, but his personal presence is weak, and his speech of no account.«

tcent@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we do not dare to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by themselves, and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the field God has apportioned to us, a field that reaches even to you.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not go beyond limits by boasting in other men’s labors, but our hope is that as your faith grows, our sphere among you may be greatly enlarged,

tcent@2Corinthians:10:17 @ But, »Let him who boasts boast in the Lord.«

tcent@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For it is not he who commends himself that is approved, but he whom the Lord commends.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:1 @ I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness; but indeed you are bearing with me.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I am afraid that just as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:6 @ But even if I am unskilled in speech, I am not in knowledge; in every way we have made this plain to you in all things.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I repeat, let no one think me foolish; but even if you do, receive me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:17 @ What I am saying I am not saying as the Lord would, but as a fool, in this confidence of boasting.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To my shame, I must say that we were too weak for that! But whatever anyone else dares to boast about—I am speaking as a fool—I also dare to boast about.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:33 @ but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped his hands.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:1 @ I must go on boasting, though there is nothing to be gained by it; but I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:3 @ And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows—

tcent@2Corinthians:12:5 @ On behalf of such a man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Though if I should boast, I will not be a fool, for I will be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:9 @ But he said to me, »My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.« Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Here for the third time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be a burden to you, for I seek not what is yours but you; for children ought not to lay up for their parents, but parents for their children.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:16 @ But be that as it may, I did not burden you myself. Yet, crafty fellow that I am, I caught you by trickery!

tcent@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you desire proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful in you.

tcent@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God for you.

tcent@2Corinthians:13:7 @ Now we pray to God that you may not do wrong—not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, even though we may seem to have failed.

tcent@2Corinthians:13:8 @ For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.

tcent@Galatians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—

tcent@Galatians:1:7 @ which is really not another gospel; but there are some who are disturbing you, and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.

tcent@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we preached to you, let him be accursed!

tcent@Galatians:1:12 @ For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

tcent@Galatians:1:15 @ But when God, who had set me apart even from my mother's womb and called me through his grace, was pleased

tcent@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned to Damascus.

tcent@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.

tcent@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up because of a revelation; and I set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I did this privately to those who were of reputation, for fear that I was running or had run my race in vain.

tcent@Galatians:2:3 @ But even Titus, who was with me, was not compelled to be circumcised, though he was a Greek.

tcent@Galatians:2:4 @ But it was because of the false brethren secretly brought in, who had slipped in to spy out our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, in order to bring us into bondage.

tcent@Galatians:2:7 @ but on the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been entrusted with the gospel to the circumcised

tcent@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.

tcent@Galatians:2:12 @ For before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he began to draw back and separate himself, fearing the party of the circumcision.

tcent@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in the presence of them all, »If you, being a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how is it that you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?

tcent@Galatians:2:16 @ yet who know that a man is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law, because by works of the law will no flesh be justified.

tcent@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found sinners, is Christ then an agent of sin? Certainly not!

tcent@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

tcent@Galatians:3:12 @ But the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, »He who does them shall live by them.«

tcent@Galatians:3:16 @ Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, »And to seeds,« as referring to many, but rather to one, »And to your seed,« that is, Christ.

tcent@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance is based on the law, it is no longer based on a promise; but God gave it to Abraham by a promise.

tcent@Galatians:3:20 @ Now a mediator does not represent just one party; but God is one.

tcent@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has bound everyone under sin, so that that what was promised by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

tcent@Galatians:3:25 @ But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

tcent@Galatians:4:2 @ but he is under guardians and trustees until the date set by the father.

tcent@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

tcent@Galatians:4:7 @ So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God.

tcent@Galatians:4:9 @ But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless elemental things? Do you desire to be enslaved all over again?

tcent@Galatians:4:14 @ and though my fleshly condition was a trial to you, you did not despise or scorn me, but you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus himself.

tcent@Galatians:4:17 @ They seek you, but for no good purpose; they want to shut you out, so that you may seek them.

tcent@Galatians:4:18 @ But it is always good to seek a good purpose, and not only when I am present with you.

tcent@Galatians:4:23 @ But the son by the slave was born according to the flesh, and the son by the free woman through the promise.

tcent@Galatians:4:26 @ But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.

tcent@Galatians:4:29 @ But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now.

tcent@Galatians:4:30 @ But what does the scripture say? »Cast out the slave and her son, for the son of the slave shall not inherit with the son of the free woman.«

tcent@Galatians:4:31 @ So then, brethren, we are not children of the slave, but of the free woman.

tcent@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love.

tcent@Galatians:5:11 @ But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been abolished.

tcent@Galatians:5:13 @ For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

tcent@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.

tcent@Galatians:5:16 @ But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

tcent@Galatians:5:18 @ But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.

tcent@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

tcent@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one test his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself alone, and not in his neighbor.

tcent@Galatians:6:8 @ For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

tcent@Galatians:6:13 @ For those who are circumcised do not even keep the Law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised so that they may boast in your flesh.

tcent@Galatians:6:14 @ But may it never be that I would boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

tcent@Galatians:6:15 @ For neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but what counts is a new creation.

tcent@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.

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

tcent@Ephesians:2:19 @ So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are members of God's household,

tcent@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building others up according to the need of the moment, that it may impart grace to those who hear.

tcent@Ephesians:5:3 @ But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints.

tcent@Ephesians:5:4 @ And there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather let there be thanksgiving.

tcent@Ephesians:5:11 @ Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead expose them.

tcent@Ephesians:5:13 @ But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.

tcent@Ephesians:5:15 @ Be careful, then, how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise,

tcent@Ephesians:5:17 @ Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

tcent@Ephesians:5:18 @ And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit,

tcent@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church,

tcent@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear that they would never enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?

tcent@Hebrews:4:2 @ For we also have had the good news preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith.

tcent@Hebrews:4:13 @ And there is no creature hidden from his sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

tcent@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.

tcent@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, he entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation.

tcent@Hebrews:9:12 @ He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves, but he entered the holy place once for all by his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption.

tcent@Hebrews:9:23 @ It was necessary, then, for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

tcent@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands, a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.

tcent@Hebrews:9:26 @ For then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But now, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

tcent@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to bear sin but to bring salvation to those who are eagerly waiting for him.

tcent@Hebrews:10:32 @ But remember the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings,

tcent@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and keep their souls.

tcent@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and greeted them from a distance, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

tcent@Hebrews:11:16 @ But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

tcent@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.

tcent@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.

tcent@Hebrews:12:11 @ For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant; but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

tcent@James:1:26 @ If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless.

tcent@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you? Is it not they who drag you into court?

tcent@James:2:9 @ But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

tcent@James:2:11 @ For he who said, »Do not commit adultery,« said also, »Do not murder.« If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

tcent@James:2:14 @ What good is it, my brethren, if a man says he has faith but has no works? Can such faith save him?

tcent@James:2:18 @ But someone will say, »You have faith and I have works.« Show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

tcent@James:3:8 @ But no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.

tcent@1John:2:11 @ But he who hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

tcent@1John:2:16 @ For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

tcent@1John:2:17 @ And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

tcent@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that it might be plain that none of them were of us.

tcent@1John:2:20 @ But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know.

tcent@1John:2:21 @ I write to you, not because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth.

tcent@1John:2:22 @ Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.

tcent@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which you have received from him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as his anointing teaches you about all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, abide in him.

tcent@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

tcent@1John:3:17 @ But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?

tcent@1John:3:18 @ Little children, let us not love in word or tongue but in deed and in truth.

tcent@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

tcent@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.

tcent@1John:4:12 @ No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.

tcent@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. And he who fears is not made perfect in love.

tcent@1John:5:5 @ Who is it that overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

tcent@1John:5:6 @ This is he who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood.

tcent@1John:5:18 @ We know that anyone born of God does not sin; but he who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.

tcent@2John:1:1 @ The elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not only I, but also all who know the truth,

tcent@2John:1:5 @ And now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

tcent@2John:1:8 @ Watch yourselves, that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may receive a full reward.

tcent@2John:1:12 @ Though I have much to write to you, I do not want to use paper and ink, but I hope to come to see you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

tcent@3John:1:9 @ I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept what we say.

tcent@3John:1:11 @ Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.

tcent@3John:1:13 @ I had much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink;

tcent@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, he has kept in eternal chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day,

tcent@Jude:1:9 @ But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a reviling judgment, but said, »The Lord rebuke you!«

tcent@Jude:1:10 @ But these men revile whatever they do not understand; and the things that they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals do, by these things they are destroyed.

tcent@Jude:1:17 @ But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

tcent@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, build yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit;
