wmth@John:11:20 @ Martha, however, as soon as she heard the tidings, »Jesus is coming,« went to meet Him; but Mary remained sitting in the house.

wmth@John:12:2 @ So they gave a dinner there in honour of Jesus, at which Martha waited at table, but Lazarus was one of the guests who were with Him.

wmth@John:12:6 @ The reason he said this was not that he cared for the poor, but that he was a thief, and that being in charge of the money-box, he used to steal what was put into it.

wmth@John:12:7 @ But Jesus interposed. »Do not blame her,« He said, »allow her to have kept it for the time of my preparation for burial.

wmth@John:12:8 @ For the poor you always have with you, but you have not me always.«

wmth@Romans:6:10 @ Death has no longer any power over Him. For by the death which He died He became, once for all, dead in relation to sin; but by the life which He now lives He is alive in relation to God.

wmth@Romans:6:11 @ In the same way you also must regard yourselves as dead in relation to sin, but as alive in relation to God, because you are in Christ Jesus.

wmth@Romans:6:14 @ For Sin shall not be lord over you, since you are subjects not of Law, but of grace.

wmth@Romans:6:15 @ Are we therefore to sin because we are no longer under the authority of Law, but under grace? No, indeed!

wmth@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God that though you were once in thraldom to Sin, you have now yielded a hearty obedience to that system of truth in which you have been instructed.

wmth@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from the tyranny of Sin, and have become the bondservants of God, you have your reward in being made holy, and you have the Life of the Ages as the final result.

wmth@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages paid by Sin are death; but God's free gift is the Life of the Ages bestowed upon us in Christ Jesus our Lord.

wmth@Romans:7:2 @ A wife, for instance, whose husband is living is bound to him by the Law; but if her husband dies the law that bound her to him has now no hold over her.

wmth@Romans:7:3 @ This accounts for the fact that if during her husband's life she lives with another man, she will be stigmatized as an adulteress; but that if her husband is dead she is no longer under the old prohibition, and even though she marries again, she is not an adulteress.

wmth@Romans:7:6 @ But seeing that we have died to that which once held us in bondage, the Law has now no hold over us, so that we render a service which, instead of being old and formal, is new and spiritual.

wmth@Romans:7:9 @ Once, apart from Law, I was alive, but when the Commandment came, sin sprang into life, and I died;

wmth@Romans:7:13 @ Did then a thing which is good become death to me? No, indeed, but sin did; so that through its bringing about death by means of what was good, it might be seen in its true light as sin, in order that by means of the Commandment the unspeakable sinfulness of sin might be plainly shown.

wmth@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the Law is a spiritual thing; but I am unspiritual–the slave, bought and sold, of sin.

wmth@Romans:7:15 @ For what I do, I do not recognize as my own action. What I desire to do is not what I do, but what I am averse to is what I do.

wmth@Romans:7:16 @ But if I do that which I do not desire to do, I admit the excellence of the Law,

wmth@Romans:7:17 @ and now it is no longer I that do these things, but the sin which has its home within me does them.

wmth@Romans:7:19 @ For what I do is not the good thing that I desire to do; but the evil thing that I desire not to do, is what I constantly do.

wmth@Romans:7:20 @ But if I do that which I desire not to do, it can no longer be said that it is I who do it, but the sin which has its home within me does it.

wmth@Romans:7:23 @ but I discover within me a different Law at war with the Law of my understanding, and leading me captive to the Law which is everywhere at work in my body–the Law of sin.

wmth@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!) To sum up then, with my understanding, I –my true self– am in servitude to the Law of God, but with my lower nature I am in servitude to the Law of sin.

wmth@Romans:8:4 @ in order that in our case the requirements of the Law might be fully met. For our lives are regulated not by our earthly, but by our spiritual natures.

wmth@Romans:8:6 @ Because for the mind to be given up to earthly things means death; but for it to be given up to spiritual things means Life and peace.

wmth@Romans:8:9 @ You, however, are not devoted to earthly, but to spiritual things, if the Spirit of God is really dwelling in you; whereas if any man has not the Spirit of Christ, such a one does not belong to Him.

wmth@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, though your body must die because of sin, yet your spirit has Life because of righteousness.

wmth@Romans:8:13 @ For if you so live, death is near; but if, through being under the sway of the spirit, you are putting your old bodily habits to death, you will live.

wmth@Romans:8:15 @ You have not for the second time acquired the consciousness of being –a consciousness which fills you with terror. But you have acquired a deep inward conviction of having been adopted as sons– a conviction which prompts us to cry aloud, »Abba! our Father!«

wmth@Romans:8:20 @ For the Creation fell into subjection to failure and unreality (not of its own choice, but by the will of Him who so subjected it).

wmth@Romans:8:24 @ It is that we have been saved. But an object of hope is such no longer when it is present to view; for when a man has a thing before his eyes, how can he be said to hope for it?

wmth@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for something which we do not see, then we eagerly and patiently wait for it.

wmth@Romans:8:26 @ In the same way the Spirit also helps us in our weakness; for we do not know what prayers to offer nor in what way to offer them. But the Spirit Himself pleads for us in yearnings that can find no words,

wmth@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not withhold even His own Son, but gave Him up for all of us, will He not also with Him freely give us all things?

wmth@Romans:9:7 @ nor because they are Abraham's true children. But the promise was

wmth@Romans:9:16 @ And from this we learn that everything is dependent not on man's will or endeavour, but upon God who has mercy. For the Scripture said to Pharaoh,

wmth@Romans:9:20 @ Nay, but who are you, a mere man, that you should cavil against GOD?

wmth@Romans:9:24 @ even towards us whom He has called not only from among the Jews but also from among the Gentiles?

wmth@Romans:9:32 @ And why? Because they were pursuing a righteousness which should arise not from faith, but from what they regarded as merit. They stuck their foot against the stone which lay in their way;

wmth@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear witness that they possess an enthusiasm for God, but it is an unenlightened enthusiasm.

wmth@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness which is based on faith speaks in a different tone. »Say not in your heart,« it declares, »`Who shall ascend to Heaven?'« –that is, to bring Christ down;

wmth@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say?»The Message is close to you, in your mouth and in your heart;« that is, the Message which we are publishing about the faith–

wmth@Romans:10:14 @ But how are they to call on One in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in One whose voice they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?

wmth@Romans:10:16 @ But, some will say, they have not all hearkened to the Good News. No, for Isaiah asks,

wmth@Romans:10:18 @ But, I ask, have they not heard? Yes, indeed:

wmth@Romans:10:19 @ But again, did Israel fail to understand? Listen to Moses first. He says,

wmth@Romans:11:4 @ But what did God say to him in reply?

wmth@Romans:11:6 @ But if it is in His grace that He has selected them, then His choice is no longer determined by human actions. Otherwise grace would be grace no longer.

wmth@Romans:11:7 @ How then does the matter stand? It stands thus. That which Israel are in earnest pursuit of, they have not obtained; but God's chosen servants have obtained it, and the rest have become hardened.

wmth@Romans:11:11 @ I ask, however, »Have they stumbled so as to be finally ruined?« No, indeed; but by their lapse salvation has come to the Gentiles in order to arouse the jealousy of the descendants of Israel;

wmth@Romans:11:13 @ But to you Gentiles I say that, since I am an Apostle specially sent to the Gentiles, I take pride in my ministry,

wmth@Romans:11:15 @ For if their having been cast aside has carried with it the reconciliation of the world, what will their being accepted again be but Life out of death?

wmth@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches have been pruned away, and you, although you were but a wild olive, have been grafted in among them and have become a sharer with others in the rich sap of the root of the olive tree,

wmth@Romans:11:22 @ Notice therefore God's kindness and God's severity. On those who have fallen His severity has descended, but upon you His kindness has come, provided that you do not cease to respond to that kindness. Otherwise you will be cut off also.

wmth@Romans:11:25 @ For there is a truth, brethren, not revealed hitherto, of which I do not wish to leave you in ignorance, for fear you should attribute superior wisdom to yourselves–the truth, I mean, that partial blindness has fallen upon Israel until the great mass of the Gentiles have come in;

wmth@Romans:11:28 @ In relation to the Good News, the Jews are God's enemies for your sakes; but in relation to God's choice they are dearly loved for the sake of their forefathers.

wmth@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome the evil with goodness.

wmth@Romans:13:3 @ For judges and magistrates are to be feared not by right-doers but by wrong-doers. You desire –do you not?– to have no reason to fear your ruler. Well, do the thing that is right, and then he will commend you.

wmth@Romans:14:1 @ I now pass to another subject. Receive as a friend a man whose faith is weak, but not for the purpose of deciding mere matters of opinion.

wmth@Romans:14:2 @ One man's faith allows him to eat anything, while a man of weaker faith eats nothing but vegetables.

wmth@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you that you should find fault with the servant of another? Whether he stands or falls is a matter which concerns his own master. But stand he will; for the Master can give him power to stand.

wmth@Romans:14:10 @ But you, why do you find fault with your brother? Or you, why do you look down upon your brother? We shall all stand before God to be judged;

wmth@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us no longer judge one another; but, instead of that, you should come to this judgement–that we must not put a stumbling-block in our brother's path, nor anything to trip him up.

wmth@Romans:14:14 @ As one who lives in union with the Lord Jesus, I know and am certain that in its own nature no food is `impure'; but if people regard any food as impure, to them it is.

wmth@Romans:14:17 @ For the Kingdom of God does not consist of eating and drinking, but of right conduct, peace and joy, through the Holy Spirit;

wmth@Romans:14:20 @ Do not for food's sake be throwing down God's work. All food is pure; but a man is in the wrong if his food is a snare to others.

wmth@Romans:14:23 @ But he who has misgivings and yet eats meat is condemned already, because his conduct is not based on faith; for all conduct not based on faith is sinful.

wmth@Romans:15:14 @ But as to you, brethren, I am convinced –yes, I Paul am convinced– that, even apart from my teaching, you are already full of goodness of heart, and enriched with complete Christian knowledge, and are also competent to instruct one another.

wmth@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if there are languages, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be brought to an end.

wmth@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For the present we see things as if in a mirror, and are puzzled; but then we shall see them face to face. For the present the knowledge I gain is imperfect; but then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Be eager in your pursuit of this Love, and be earnestly ambitious for spiritual gifts, but let it be chiefly so in order that you may prophesy.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in an unknown tongue is not speaking to men, but to God; for no one understands him. Yet in the Spirit he is speaking secret truths.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks to men words of edification, encouragement and comfort.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in an unknown tongue does good to himself, but he who prophesies does good to the Church.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I should be right glad were you all to speak in `tongues,' but yet more glad were you all to prophesy. And, in fact, the man who prophesies is superior to him who speaks in `tongues,' except when the latter can interpret in order that the Church may get a blessing.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But, brethren, as things are, if I come to you speaking in `tongues,' what benefit shall I confer on you, if the utterance is neither in the form of a revelation nor of additional knowledge nor of prophecy nor of teaching?

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

wmth@1Corinthians:14:19 @ but in the Church I would rather speak five words with my understanding –so as to instruct others also– than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brethren, do not prove yourselves to be children in your minds. As regards evil, indeed, be utter babes, but as regards your minds prove yourselves to be men of ripe years.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:22 @ This shows that the gift of tongues is intended as a sign not to those who believe but to unbelievers, but prophecy is intended not for unbelievers but for those who believe.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:29 @ But if there are Prophets, let two or three speak and let the rest judge.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not a God of disorder, but of peace, as He is in all the Churches of His people.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:1 @ But let me recall to you, brethren, the Good News which I brought you, which you accepted, and on which you are standing,

wmth@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But what I am I am by the grace of God, and His grace bestowed upon me did not prove ineffectual. But I labored more strenuously than all the rest–yet it was not I, but God's grace working with me.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:11 @ But whether it is I or they, this is the way we preach and the way that you came to believe.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:12 @ But if Christ is preached as having risen from the dead, how is it that some of you say that there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead?

wmth@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But, in reality, Christ risen from among the dead, being the first to do so of those who are asleep.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But this will happen to each in the right order–Christ having been the first to rise, and afterwards Christ's people rising at His return.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:28 @ But when the whole universe has been made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also become subject to Him who has made the universe subject to Him, in order that GOD may be all in all.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will say, »How can the dead rise? And with what kind of body do they come back?«

wmth@1Corinthians:15:37 @ and as for what you sow, it is not the plant which is to be that you are sowing, but a bare grain, of wheat (it may be) or of something else, and God gives it a body as He has seen fit,

wmth@1Corinthians:15:46 @ Nevertheless, it is not what is spiritual that came first, but what is animal; what is spiritual came afterwards.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:50 @ But this I tell you, brethren: our mortal bodies cannot inherit the Kingdom of God, nor will what is perishable inherit what is imperishable.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:51 @ I tell you a truth hitherto kept secret: we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

wmth@1Corinthians:15:54 @ But when this perishable nature has put on what is imperishable, and this mortality has put on immortality, then will the words of Scripture be fulfilled,

wmth@1Corinthians:15:57 @ but God be thanked who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!

wmth@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our brother Apollos, I have repeatedly urged him to accompany the brethren who are coming to you: but he is quite resolved not to do so at present. He will come, however, when he has a good opportunity.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:6 @ But if, on the one hand, we are enduring affliction, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if, on the other hand, we are receiving comfort, it is for your comfort which is produced within you through your patient fortitude under the same sufferings as those which we also are enduring.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Nay, we had, as we still have, the sentence of death within our own selves, in order that our confidence may repose, not on ourselves, but on God who raised the dead to life.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For the reason for our boasting is this–the testimony of our own conscience that it was in holiness and with pure motives before God, and in reliance not on worldly wisdom but on the gracious help of God, that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and above all in our relations with you.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For Jesus Christ the Son of God –He who was proclaimed among you by us, that is by Silas and Timothy and myself– did not show Himself a waverer between »Yes« and »No.« But it was and always is »Yes« with Him.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:21 @ But He who is making us as well as you stedfast through union with the Anointed One, and has anointed us, is God,

wmth@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But as for me, as my soul shall answer for it, I appeal to God as my witness, that it was to spare you pain that I gave up my visit to Corinth.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:1 @ But, so far as I am concerned, I have resolved not to have a painful visit the next time I come to see you.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I of all men give you pain, who then is there to gladden my heart, but the very persons to whom I give pain?

wmth@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For with many tears I write to you, and in deep suffering and depression of spirit, not in order to grieve you, but in the hope of showing you how brimful my heart is with love for you.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:14 @ But to God be the thanks who in Christ ever heads our triumphal procession, and by our hands waves in every place that sweet incense, the knowledge of Him.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:17 @ We are; for, unlike most teachers, we are not fraudulent hucksters of God's Message; but with transparent motives, as commissioned by God, in God's presence and in communion with Christ, so we speak.

wmth@2Corinthians:3:3 @ For all can see that you are a letter of Christ entrusted to our care, and written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the ever-living God–and not on tablets of stone, but on human hearts as tablets.

wmth@2Corinthians:4:2 @ Nay, we have renounced the secrecy which marks a feeling of shame. We practice no cunning tricks, nor do we adulterate God's Message. But by a full clear statement of the truth we strive to commend ourselves in the presence of God to every human conscience.

wmth@2Corinthians:4:5 @ (For we do not proclaim ourselves, but we proclaim Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bondservants for the sake of Jesus.)

wmth@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in a fragile vase of clay, in order that the surpassing greatness of the power may be seen to belong to God, and not to originate in us.

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

wmth@2Corinthians:7:7 @ but also by the fact that he had felt comforted on your account, and by the report which he brought of your eager affection, of your grief, and of your jealousy on my behalf, so that I rejoiced more than ever.

wmth@2Corinthians:7:9 @ Now I rejoice, not in your grief, but because the grief led to repentance; for you sorrowed with a godly sorrow, which prevented you from receiving injury from us in any respect.

wmth@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, a repentance not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world finally produces death.

wmth@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Therefore, though I wrote to you, it was not to punish the offender, nor to secure justice for him who had suffered the wrong, but it was chiefly in order that your earnest feeling on our behalf might become manifest to yourselves in the sight of God.

wmth@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For however I may have boasted to him about you, I have no reason to feel ashamed; but as we have in all respects spoken the truth to you, so also our boasting to Titus about you has turned out to be the truth.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:1 @ But we desire to let you know, brethren, of the grace of God which has been bestowed on the Churches of Macedonia;

wmth@2Corinthians:8:5 @ They not only did this, as we had expected, but first of all in obedience to God's will they gave their own selves to the Lord and to us.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I am not saying this by way of command, but to test by the standard of other men's earnestness the genuineness of your love also.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:10 @ But in this matter I give you an opinion; for my doing this helps forward your own intentions, seeing that not only have you begun operations, but a year ago you already had the desire to do so.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but that, by equalization of burdens, your superfluity having in the present emergency supplied their deficiency, their superfluity may in turn be a supply for your deficiency later on, so that there may be equalization of burdens.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God that He inspires the heart of Titus with the same deep interest in you;

wmth@2Corinthians:8:20 @ For against one thing we are on our guard–I mean against blame being thrown upon us in respect to these large and liberal contributions which are under our charge.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:21 @ For we seek not only God's approval of our integrity, but man's also.

wmth@2Corinthians:9:6 @ But do not forget that he who sows with a niggardly hand will also reap a niggardly crop, and that he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

wmth@2Corinthians:9:7 @ Let each contribute what he has decided upon in his own mind, and not do it reluctantly or under compulsion.

wmth@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the service rendered in this sacred gift not only helps to relieve the wants of God's people, but it is also rich in its results and awakens a chorus of thanksgiving to God.

wmth@2Corinthians:9:13 @ For, by the practical proof of it which you exhibit in this service, you cause God to be extolled for your fidelity to your professed adherence to the Good News of the Christ, and for the liberality of your contributions for them and for all who are in need,

wmth@2Corinthians:10:1 @ But as for me Paul, I entreat you by the gentleness and self-forgetfulness of Christ–I who when among you have not an imposing personal presence, but when absent am fearlessly outspoken in dealing with you.

wmth@2Corinthians:10:4 @ The weapons with which we fight are not human weapons, but are mighty for God in overthrowing strong fortresses.

wmth@2Corinthians:10:10 @ For they say »His letters are authoritative and forcible, but his personal presence is unimpressive, and as for eloquence, he has none.«

wmth@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We, however, will not exceed due limits in our boasting, but will keep within the limits of the sphere which God has assigned to us as a limit, which reaches even to you.

wmth@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not exceed our due limits, and take credit for other men's labours; but we entertain the hope that, as your faith grows, we shall gain promotion among you –still keeping within our own sphere– promotion to a larger field of labour,

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

wmth@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But I will persist in the same line of conduct in order to cut the ground from under the feet of those who desire an opportunity of getting themselves recognized as being on a level with us in the matters about which they boast.

wmth@2Corinthians:12:6 @ If however I should choose to boast, I should not be a fool for so doing, for I should be speaking the truth. But I forbear, lest any one should be led to estimate me more highly than what his own eyes attest, or more highly than what he hears from my lips.

wmth@2Corinthians:12:9 @ but His reply has been, »My grace suffices for you, for power matures in weakness.« Most gladly therefore will I boast of my infirmities rather than complain of them–in order that Christ's power may overshadow me.

wmth@2Corinthians:12:11 @ It is foolish of me to write all this, but you have compelled me to do so. Why, you ought to have been my vindicators; for in no respect have I been inferior to these superlatively great Apostles, even though in myself I am nothing.

wmth@2Corinthians:12:14 @ See, I am now for the third time prepared to visit you, but I will not be a dead weight to you. I desire not your money, but yourselves; for children ought not to put by for their parents, but parents for their children.

wmth@2Corinthians:12:16 @ If I love you so intensely, am I the less to be loved? Be that as it may: I was not a burden to you. But being by no means scrupulous, I entrapped you, they say!

wmth@2Corinthians:12:19 @ You are imagining, all this time, that we are making our defense at your bar. In reality it is as in God's presence and in communion with Christ that we speak; but, dear friends, it is all with a view to your progress in goodness.

wmth@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you want a practical proof of the fact that Christ speaks by my lips–He who is not feeble towards you, but powerful among you.

wmth@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For though it is true that He was crucified through weakness, yet He now lives through the power of God. We also are weak, sharing His weakness, but with Him we shall be full of life to deal with you through the power of God.

wmth@2Corinthians:13:6 @ But I trust that you will recognize that we are not insincere.

wmth@2Corinthians:13:7 @ And our prayer to God is that you may do nothing wrong; not in order that our sincerity may be demonstrated, but that you may do what is right, even though our sincerity may seem to be doubtful.

wmth@2Corinthians:13:8 @ For we have no power against the truth, but only for the furtherance of the truth;

wmth@2Corinthians:13:9 @ and it is a joy to us when we are powerless, but you are strong. This we also pray for–the perfecting of your characters.

wmth@Philippians:1:28 @ Never for a moment quail before your antagonists. Your fearlessness will be to them a sure token of impending destruction, but to you it will be a sure token of your salvation–a token coming from God.

wmth@Philippians:1:29 @ For you have had the privilege granted you on behalf of Christ–not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer on His behalf;

wmth@Philippians:2:3 @ Do nothing in a spirit of factiousness or of vainglory, but, with true humility, let every one regard the rest as being of more account than himself;

wmth@Philippians:2:4 @ each fixing his attention, not simply on his own interests, but on those of others also.

wmth@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my dearly-loved friends, as I have always found you obedient, labour earnestly with fear and trembling –not merely as though I were present with you, but much more now since I am absent from you– labour earnestly, I say, to make sure of your own salvation.

wmth@Philippians:2:19 @ But, if the Lord permits it, I hope before long to send Timothy to you, that I, in turn, may be cheered by getting news of you.

wmth@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know Timothy's approved worth–how, like a child working with his father, he has served with me in furtherance of the Good News.

wmth@Philippians:2:24 @ but trusting, as I do, in the Lord, I believe that I shall myself also come to you before long.

wmth@Philippians:2:27 @ For it is true that he has been ill, and was apparently at the point of death; but God had pity on him, and not only on him, but also on me, to save me from having sorrow upon sorrow.

wmth@Philippians:3:12 @ I do not say that I have already won the race or have already reached perfection. But I am pressing on, striving to lay hold of the prize for which also Christ has laid hold of me.

wmth@Philippians:3:13 @ Brethren, I do not imagine that I have yet laid hold of it. But this one thing I do–forgetting everything which is past and stretching forward to what lies in front of me,

wmth@Philippians:3:16 @ But whatever be the point that we have already reached, let us persevere in the same course.

wmth@Philippians:4:6 @ Do not be over-anxious about anything, but by prayer and earnest pleading, together with thanksgiving, let your request be unreservedly made known in the presence of God.

wmth@Philippians:4:10 @ But I rejoice with a deep and holy joy that now at length you have revived your thoughtfulness for my welfare. Indeed you have always been thoughtful for me, although opportunity failed you.

wmth@Philippians:4:17 @ Not that I crave for gifts from you, but I do want to see abundant fruit bring you honour.

wmth@Philippians:4:19 @ But my God –so great is His wealth of glory in Christ Jesus– will fully supply every need of yours.

wmth@Colossians:1:26 @ the truth which has been kept secret from all ages and generations, but has now been revealed to His people,

wmth@Colossians:2:17 @ These were a shadow of things that were soon to come, but the substance belongs to Christ.

wmth@Colossians:2:23 @ These rules have indeed an appearance of wisdom where self-imposed worship exists, and an affectation of humility and an ascetic severity. But not one of them is of any value in combating the indulgence of our lower natures.

wmth@Colossians:3:8 @ But now you must rid yourselves of every kind of sin –angry and passionate outbreaks, ill-will, evil speaking, foul-mouthed abuse– so that these may never soil your lips.

wmth@Colossians:3:11 @ In that new creation there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free man, but Christ is everything and is in all of us.

wmth@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, be obedient in everything to your earthly masters; not in acts of eye service, as aiming only to please men, but with simplicity of purpose, because you fear the Lord.

wmth@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ The Good News that we brought you did not come to you in words only, but also with power and with the Holy Spirit and with much certainty, for you know the sort of men we became among you, as examples for your sakes.

wmth@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For it was not only from you that the Master's Message sounded forth throughout Macedonia and Greece; but everywhere your faith in God has become known, so that it is unnecessary for us to say anything about it.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ But, as you will remember, after we had already met with suffering and outrage at Philippi, we summoned up boldness, by the help of our God, to tell you God's Good News amid much opposition.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as God tested and approved us before entrusting us with His Good News, so in what we say we are seeking not to please men but to please God, who tests and approves our motives.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ Seeing that we were thus drawn affectionately towards you, it would have been a joy to us to have imparted to you not only God's Good News, but to have given our very lives also, because you had become very dear to us.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And for this further reason we render unceasing thanks to God, that when you received God's Message from our lips, it was as no mere message from men that you embraced it, but as –what it really is– God's Message, which also does its work in the hearts of you who believe.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, having been for a short time separated from you in bodily presence, though not in heart, endeavoured all the more earnestly, with intense longing, to see you face to face.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ On this account we wanted to come to you –at least I Paul wanted again and again to do so– but Satan hindered us.

wmth@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has recently come back to us from you, and has brought us the happy tidings of your faith and love, and has told us how you still cherish a constant and affectionate recollection of us, and are longing to see us as we also long to see you–

wmth@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ But may our God and Father Himself –and our Lord Jesus– guide us on our way to you;

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ God has not called us to an unclean life, but to one of purity.

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore a defiant spirit in such a case provokes not man but God, who puts His Holy Spirit into your hearts.

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But on the subject of love for the brotherhood it is unnecessary for me to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another;

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But as to times and dates it is unnecessary that anything be written to you.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that daylight should surprise you like a thief;

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ So then let us not sleep, like the rest of the world, but let us keep awake and be sober.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us, belonging –as we do– to the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God has not pre-destined us to meet His anger, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ;

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ See to it that no one ever repays another with evil for evil; but always seek opportunities of doing good both to one another and to all the world.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:21 @ but test all such, and retain hold of the good.

wmth@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ But with respect to the Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to meet Him, we entreat you, brethren,

wmth@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For lawlessness is already at work in secret; but only until the man who is now exercising a restraining influence is removed,

wmth@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful, and He will make you stedfast and will guard you from the Evil one.

wmth@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ But, by the authority of the Lord, we command you, brethren, to stand aloof from every brother whose life is disorderly and not in accordance with the teaching which all received from us.

wmth@1Timothy:4:7 @ But worldly stories, fit only for credulous old women, have nothing to do with.

wmth@1Timothy:4:8 @ Train yourself in godliness. Exercise for the body is not useless, but godliness is useful in every respect, possessing, as it does, the promise of Life now and of the Life which is soon coming.

wmth@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one think slightingly of you because you are a young man; but in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, be an example for your fellow Christians to imitate.

wmth@1Timothy:5:1 @ Never administer a sharp reprimand to a man older than yourself; but entreat him as if he were your father, and the younger men as brothers;

wmth@1Timothy:5:4 @ But if a widow has children or grandchildren, let these learn first to show piety towards their own homes and to prove their gratitude to their parents; for this is well pleasing in the sight of God.

wmth@1Timothy:5:6 @ but a pleasure-loving widow is dead even while still alive.

wmth@1Timothy:5:8 @ But if a man makes no provision for those dependent on him, and especially for his own family, he has disowned the faith and is behaving worse than an unbeliever.

wmth@1Timothy:5:11 @ But the younger widows you must not enrol; for as soon as they begin to chafe against the yoke of Christ, they want to marry,

wmth@1Timothy:5:13 @ And at the same time they also learn to be idle as they go round from house to house; and they are not only idle, but are gossips also and busybodies, speaking of things that ought not to be spoken of.

wmth@1Timothy:5:23 @ (No longer be a water-drinker; but take a little wine for the sake of your digestion and your frequent ailments.)

wmth@1Timothy:5:24 @ The sins of some men are evident to the world, leading the way to your estimate of their characters, but the sins of others lag behind.

wmth@1Timothy:6:2 @ And those who have believing masters should not be wanting in respect towards them because they are their brethren, but should serve them all the more willingly because those who profit by the faithful service rendered are believers and are friends.

wmth@1Timothy:6:11 @ But you, O man of God, must flee from these things; and strive for uprightness, godliness, good faith, love, fortitude, and a forgiving temper.

wmth@1Timothy:6:17 @ Impress on those who are rich in the present age that they must not be haughty nor set their hopes on riches –that unstable foundation– but on God who provides us richly with all things for our enjoyment.

wmth@2Timothy:1:7 @ For the Spirit which God has given us is not a spirit of cowardice, but one of power and of love and of sound judgement.

wmth@2Timothy:1:8 @ Do not be ashamed then to bear witness for our Lord and for me His prisoner; but rather share suffering with me in the service of the Good News, strengthened by the power of God.

wmth@2Timothy:1:9 @ For He saved us and called us with a holy call, not in accordance with our desserts, but in accordance with His own purpose and the free grace which He bestowed on us in Christ Jesus before the commencement of the Ages,

wmth@2Timothy:1:10 @ but which has now been plainly revealed through the Appearing of our Saviour, Christ Jesus. He has put an end to death and has brought Life and Immortality to light through the Good News,

wmth@2Timothy:1:12 @ That indeed is the reason why I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know in whom my trust reposes, and I am confident that He has it in His power to keep what I have entrusted to Him safe until that day.

wmth@2Timothy:2:23 @ But avoid foolish discussions with ignorant men, knowing –as you do– that these lead to quarrels;

wmth@2Timothy:2:24 @ and a bondservant of the Lord must not quarrel, but must be inoffensive towards all men, a skilful teacher, and patient under wrongs.

wmth@2Timothy:3:10 @ But you have intimately known my teaching, life, aims, faith, patience, love, resignation,

wmth@2Timothy:3:13 @ But bad men and impostors will go on from bad to worse, misleading and being misled.

wmth@2Timothy:3:14 @ But you must cling to the things which you have learnt and have been taught to believe, knowing who your teachers were,

wmth@2Timothy:4:3 @ For a time is coming when they will not tolerate wholesome instruction, but, wanting to have their ears tickled, they will find a multitude of teachers to satisfy their own fancies;

wmth@2Timothy:4:5 @ But as for you, you must exercise habitual self-control, and not live a self-indulgent life, but do the duty of an evangelist and fully discharge the obligations of your office.

wmth@2Timothy:4:8 @ From this time onward there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me, but also to all who love the thought of His Appearing.

wmth@2Timothy:4:13 @ When you come, bring with you the cloak which I left behind at Troas at the house of Carpus, and the books, but especially the parchments.

wmth@Titus:1:16 @ They profess to know God; but in their actions they disown Him, and are detestable and disobedient men, and for any good work are utterly useless.

wmth@Titus:3:2 @ not speak evil of any one, nor be contentious, but yield unselfishly to others and constantly manifest a forgiving spirit towards all men.

wmth@Titus:3:4 @ But when the goodness of God our Saviour, and His love to man, dawned upon us, not in consequence of things which we,

wmth@Titus:3:5 @ as righteous men, had done, but as the result of His own mercy He saved us by means of the bath of regeneration and the renewal of our natures by the Holy Spirit,

wmth@Titus:3:8 @ This is a faithful saying, and on these various points I would have you insist strenuously, in order that those who have their faith fixed on God may be careful to set an example of good actions. For these are not only good in themselves, but are also useful to mankind.

wmth@Hebrews:1:6 @ But speaking of the time when He once more brings His Firstborn into the world, He says,

wmth@Hebrews:1:8 @ But of His Son, He says,

wmth@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the message delivered through angels proved to be true, and every transgression and act of disobedience met with just retribution,

wmth@Hebrews:2:4 @ while God corroborated their testimony by signs and marvels and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed in accordance with His own will.

wmth@Hebrews:2:6 @ But, as we know, a writer has solemnly said, How poor a creature is man, and yet Thou dost remember him, and a son of man, and yet Thou dost come to him!

wmth@Hebrews:2:8 @ Thou hast put everything in subjection under his feet. - For this subjecting of the universe to man implies the leaving nothing not subject to him. But we do not as yet see the universe subject to him.

wmth@Hebrews:2:9 @ But Jesus –who was made a little inferior to the angels in order that through God's grace He might taste death for every human being– we already see wearing a crown of glory and honour because of His having suffered death.

wmth@Hebrews:2:16 @ For assuredly it is not to angels that He is continually reaching a helping hand, but it is to the descendants of Abraham.

wmth@Hebrews:3:6 @ but Christ was faithful as a Son having authority over God's house, and we are that house, if we hold firm to the End the boldness and the hope which we boast of as ours.

wmth@Hebrews:4:2 @ For Good News has been brought to us as truly as to them; but the message they heard failed to benefit them, because they were not one in faith with those who gave heed to it.

wmth@Hebrews:4:13 @ And no created thing is able to escape its scrutiny; but everything lies bare and completely exposed before the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.

wmth@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a High Priest who is unable to feel for us in our weaknesses, but one who was tempted in every respect just as we are tempted, and yet did not sin.

wmth@Hebrews:5:3 @ And for this reason he is required to offer sin-offerings not only for the people but also for himself.

wmth@Hebrews:5:4 @ And no one takes this honourable office upon himself, but only accepts it when called to it by God, as Aaron was.

wmth@Hebrews:5:5 @ So Christ also did not claim for Himself the honour of being made High Priest, but was appointed to it by Him who said to Him,

wmth@Hebrews:5:14 @ Such persons are mere babes. But solid food is for adults–that is, for those who through constant practice have their spiritual faculties carefully trained to distinguish good from evil.

wmth@Hebrews:6:8 @ But if it only yields a mass of thorns and briers, it is considered worthless, and is in danger of being cursed, and in the end will be destroyed by fire.

wmth@Hebrews:6:9 @ But we, even while we speak in this tone, have a happier conviction concerning you, my dearly-loved friends–a conviction of things which point towards salvation.

wmth@Hebrews:6:11 @ But we long for each of you to continue to manifest the same earnestness, with a view to your enjoying fulness of hope to the very End;

wmth@Hebrews:6:12 @ so that you may not become half-hearted, but be imitators of those who through faith and patient endurance are now heirs to the promises.

wmth@Hebrews:7:3 @ with no father or mother, and no record of ancestry: having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made a type of the Son of God–this man Melchizedek remains a priest for ever.

wmth@Hebrews:7:6 @ But, in this instance, one who does not trace his origin from them takes tithes from Abraham, and pronounces a blessing on him to whom the promises belong.

wmth@Hebrews:7:16 @ and hold His office not in obedience to any temporary Law, but by virtue of an indestructible Life.

wmth@Hebrews:7:19 @ for the Law brought no perfect blessing–but on the other hand we have the bringing in of a new and better hope by means of which we draw near to God.

wmth@Hebrews:7:21 @ for these men hold office without any oath having been taken, but He holds it attested by an oath from Him who said to Him, »The Lord has sworn and will not recall His words, Thou art a Priest for ever« –

wmth@Hebrews:7:24 @ but He, because He continues for ever, has a priesthood which does not pass to any successor.

wmth@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the Law constitutes men High Priests –men with all their infirmity– but the utterance of the oath, which came later than the Law, constitutes High Priest a Son who has been made for ever perfect.

wmth@Hebrews:8:2 @ and ministers in the Holy place and in the true tabernacle which not man, but the Lord pitched.

wmth@Hebrews:8:6 @ But, as a matter of fact, the ministry which Christ has obtained is all the nobler a ministry, in that He is at the same time the negotiator of a sublimer covenant, based upon sublimer promises.

wmth@Hebrews:8:13 @ By using the words, »a new Covenant,« He has made the first one obsolete; but whatever is decaying and showing signs of old age is not far from disappearing altogether.

wmth@Hebrews:9:5 @ And above the ark were the Cherubim denoting God's glorious presence and overshadowing the Mercy-seat. But I cannot now speak about all these in detail.

wmth@Hebrews:9:7 @ But into the second, the High Priest goes only on one day of the year, and goes alone, taking with him blood, which he offers on his own behalf and on account of the sins which the people have ignorantly committed.

wmth@Hebrews:9:11 @ But Christ appeared as a High Priest of the blessings that are soon to come by means of the greater and more perfect Tent of worship, a tent which has not been built with hands –that is to say does not belong to this material creation–

wmth@Hebrews:9:12 @ and once for all entered the Holy place, taking with Him not the blood of goats and calves, but His own blood, and thus procuring eternal redemption for us.

wmth@Hebrews:9:23 @ It was needful therefore that the copies of the things in Heaven should be cleansed in this way, but that the heavenly things themselves should be cleansed with more costly sacrifices.

wmth@Hebrews:9:24 @ For not into a Holy place built by men's hands –a mere copy of the reality– did Christ enter, but He entered Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.

wmth@Hebrews:9:26 @ In that case Christ would have needed to suffer many times, from the creation of the world onwards; but as a matter of fact He has appeared once for all, at the Close of the Ages, in order to do away with sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

wmth@Hebrews:10:3 @ But in those sacrifices sins are recalled to memory year after year.

wmth@Hebrews:10:18 @ But where these have been forgiven no further offering for sin is required.

wmth@Hebrews:10:25 @ not neglecting –as some habitually do– to meet together, but encouraging one another, and doing this all the more since you can see the day of Christ approaching.

wmth@Hebrews:10:27 @ There remains nothing but a certain awful expectation of judgement, and the fury of a fire which before long will devour the enemies of the truth.

wmth@Hebrews:10:32 @ But continually recall to mind the days now past, when on being first enlightened you went through a great conflict and many sufferings.

wmth@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you not only showed sympathy with those who were imprisoned, but you even submitted with joy when your property was taken from you, being well aware that you have in your own selves a more valuable possession and one which will remain.

wmth@Hebrews:10:37 @ For there is still but a short time and then

wmth@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not people who shrink back and perish, but are among those who believe and gain possession of their souls.

wmth@Hebrews:11:6 @ But where there is no faith it is impossible truly to please Him; for the man who draws near to God must believe that there is a God and that He proves Himself a rewarder of those who earnestly try to find Him.

wmth@Hebrews:11:13 @ All these died in the possession of faith. They had not received the promised blessings, but had seen them from a distance and had greeted them, and had acknowledged themselves to be foreigners and strangers here on earth;

wmth@Hebrews:11:16 @ but, as it is, we see them eager for a better land, that is to say, a heavenly one. For this reason God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has now prepared a city for them.

wmth@Hebrews:11:29 @ Through faith they passed through the Red Sea as though they were passing over dry land, but the Egyptians, when they tried to do the same, were swallowed up.

wmth@Hebrews:12:10 @ It is true that they disciplined us for a few years according as they thought fit; but He does it for our certain good, in order that we may become sharers in His own holy character.

wmth@Hebrews:12:11 @ Now, at the time, discipline seems to be a matter not for joy, but for grief; yet it afterwards yields to those who have passed through its training a result full of peace–namely, righteousness.

wmth@Hebrews:12:14 @ but may rather be restored. Persistently strive for peace with all men, and for that growth in holiness apart from which no one will see the Lord.

wmth@Hebrews:12:26 @ His voice then shook the earth, but now we have His promise,

wmth@Hebrews:13:14 @ For we have no permanent city here, but we are longing for the city which is soon to be ours.

wmth@Hebrews:13:22 @ Bear with me, brethren, when I thus exhort you; for, in fact, it is but a short letter that I have written to you.

wmth@James:1:2 @ Reckon it nothing but joy, my brethren, whenever you find yourselves hedged in by various trials.

wmth@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith and have no doubts; for he who has doubts is like the surge of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed into spray.

wmth@James:1:10 @ but a rich man should rejoice in being brought low, for like flowers among the herbage rich men will pass away.

wmth@James:1:14 @ But when a man is tempted, it is his own passions that carry him away and serve as a bait.

wmth@James:1:19 @ You know this, my dearly-loved brethren. But let every one be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to be angry.

wmth@James:1:22 @ But prove yourselves obedient to the Message, and do not be mere hearers of it, imposing a delusion upon yourselves.

wmth@James:1:23 @ For if any one listens but does not obey, he is like a man who carefully looks at his own face in a mirror.

wmth@James:1:25 @ But he who looks closely into the perfect Law –the Law of freedom– and continues looking, he, being not a hearer who forgets, but an obedient doer, will as the result of his obedience be blessed.

wmth@James:1:26 @ If a man thinks that he is scrupulously religious, although he is not curbing his tongue but is deceiving himself, his religious service is worthless.

wmth@James:2:6 @ But have put dishonour upon the poor man. Yet is it not the rich who grind you down? Are not they the very people who drag you into the Law courts? –

wmth@James:2:9 @ But if you are making distinctions between one man and another, you are guilty of sin, and are convicted by the Law as offenders.

wmth@James:2:10 @ A man who has kept the Law as a whole, but has failed to keep some one command, has become guilty of violating all.

wmth@James:2:13 @ For he who shows no mercy will have judgement given against him without mercy; but mercy triumphs over judgement.

wmth@James:2:20 @ But, idle boaster, are you willing to be taught how it is that faith apart from obedience is worthless? Take the case of Abraham our forefather.

wmth@James:3:5 @ In the same way the tongue is an insignificant part of the body, but it is immensely boastful. Remember how a mere spark may set a vast forest in flames.

wmth@James:3:8 @ But the tongue no man or woman is able to tame. It is an ever-busy mischief, and is full of deadly poison.

wmth@James:3:14 @ But if in your hearts you have bitter feelings of envy and rivalry, do not speak boastfully and falsely, in defiance of the truth.

wmth@James:4:6 @ But He gives more abundant grace, as is implied in His saying,

wmth@James:4:11 @ Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. The man who speaks evil of a brother-man or judges his brother-man speaks evil of the Law and judges the Law. But if you judge the Law, you are no longer one who obeys the Law, but one who judges it.

wmth@James:4:14 @ when, all the while, you do not even know what will happen to-morrow. For what is the nature of your life? Why, it is but a mist, which appears for a short time and then is seen no more.

wmth@James:4:16 @ But, as the case stands, it is in mere self-confidence that you boast: all such boasting is evil.

wmth@James:5:5 @ Here on earth you have lived self-indulgent and profligate lives. You have stupefied yourselves with gross feeding; but a day of slaughter has come.

wmth@James:5:12 @ But above all things, my brethren, do not swear, either by Heaven or by the earth, or with any other oath. Let your `yes' be simply `yes,' and your `no' be simply `no;' that you may not come under condemnation.

wmth@1Peter:1:12 @ To them it was revealed that they were serving not themselves but you, when they foretold the very things which have now been openly declared to you by those who, having been taught by the Holy Spirit which had been sent from Heaven, brought you the Good News. Angels long to stoop and look into these things.

wmth@1Peter:1:15 @ but –in imitation of the holy One who has called you– you also must be holy in all your habits of life.

wmth@1Peter:1:19 @ but with the precious blood of Christ–as of an unblemished and spotless lamb.

wmth@1Peter:1:20 @ He was pre-destined indeed to this work, even before the creation of the world, but has been plainly manifested in these last days for the sake of you who, through Him,

wmth@1Peter:1:23 @ For you have been begotten again by God's ever-living and enduring word from a germ not of perishable, but of imperishable life.

wmth@1Peter:2:4 @ Come to Him, the ever-living Stone, rejected indeed by men as worthless, but in God's esteem chosen and held in honour.

wmth@1Peter:2:7 @ To you believers, therefore, that honour belongs; but for unbelievers–

wmth@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen race, a priesthood of kingly lineage, a holy nation, a people belonging specially to God, that you may make known the perfections of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light.

wmth@1Peter:2:10 @ Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God. Once you had not found mercy, but now you have.

wmth@1Peter:2:12 @ Live honourable lives among the Gentiles, in order that, although they now speak against you as evil-doers, they may yet witness your good conduct, and may glorify God on the day of reward and retribution.

wmth@1Peter:2:16 @ Be free men, and yet do not make your freedom an excuse for base conduct, but be God's bondservants.

wmth@1Peter:2:18 @ Household servants, be submissive to your masters, and show them the utmost respect–not only if they are kind and thoughtful, but also if they are unreasonable.

wmth@1Peter:2:20 @ If you do wrong and receive a blow for it, what credit is there in your bearing it patiently? But if when you do right and suffer for it you bear it patiently, this is an acceptable thing with God.

wmth@1Peter:2:23 @ When He was reviled, He did not answer with reviling; when He suffered He uttered no threats, but left His wrongs in the hands of the righteous Judge.

wmth@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were straying like lost sheep, but now you have come back to the Shepherd and Protector of your souls.

wmth@1Peter:3:9 @ not requiting evil with evil nor abuse with abuse, but, on the contrary, giving a blessing in return, because a blessing is what you have been called by God to inherit.

wmth@1Peter:3:14 @ But even if you suffer for righteousness' sake, you are to be envied. So do not be alarmed by their threats, nor troubled;

wmth@1Peter:3:15 @ but in your hearts consecrate Christ as Lord, being always ready to make your defence to any one who asks from you a reason for the hope which you cherish.

wmth@1Peter:3:18 @ because Christ also once for all died for sins, the innocent One for the guilty many, in order to bring us to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit,

wmth@1Peter:3:21 @ And, corresponding to that figure, the water of baptism now saves you –not the washing off of material defilement, but the craving of a good conscience after God– through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

wmth@1Peter:4:2 @ that in future you may spend the rest of your earthly lives, governed not by human passions, but by the will of God.

wmth@1Peter:4:5 @ But they will have to give account to Him who stands ready to pronounce judgement on the living and the dead.

wmth@1Peter:4:6 @ For it is with this end in view that the Good News was proclaimed even to some who were dead, that they may be judged, as all mankind will be judged, in the body, but may be living a godly life in the spirit.

wmth@1Peter:4:7 @ But the end of all things is now close at hand: therefore be sober-minded and temperate, so that you may give yourselves to prayer.

wmth@1Peter:4:15 @ But let not one of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evil-doer, or as a spy upon other people's business.

wmth@1Peter:4:16 @ If, however, any one suffers because he is a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God for being permitted to bear that name.

wmth@1Peter:5:2 @ Be shepherds of God's flock which is among you. Exercise the oversight not reluctantly but eagerly, in accordance with the will of God; not for base gain but with cheerful minds;

wmth@1Peter:5:3 @ not lording it over your Churches but proving yourselves patterns for the flock to imitate.

wmth@1Peter:5:5 @ In the same way you younger men must submit to your elders; and all of you must gird yourselves with humility towards one another, for God sets Himself against the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

wmth@2Peter:1:5 @ But for this very reason –adding, on your part, all earnestness– along with your faith, manifest also a noble character: along with a noble character, knowledge;

wmth@2Peter:1:13 @ But I think it right, so long as I remain in the body, my present dwelling-place, to arouse you by such reminders.

wmth@2Peter:1:16 @ For when we made known to you the power and Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, we were not eagerly following cleverly devised legends, but we had been eye-witnesses of His majesty.

wmth@2Peter:1:20 @ But, above all, remember that no prophecy in Scripture will be found to have come from the prophet's own prompting;

wmth@2Peter:1:21 @ for never did any prophecy come by human will, but men sent by God spoke as they were impelled by the Holy Spirit.

wmth@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were also false prophets among the people, as there will be teachers of falsehood among you also, who will cunningly introduce fatal divisions, disowning even the Sovereign Lord who has redeemed them, and bringing on themselves swift destruction.

wmth@2Peter:2:4 @ For God did not spare angels when they had sinned, but hurling them down to Tartarus consigned them to caves of darkness, keeping them in readiness for judgement.

wmth@2Peter:2:7 @ But when righteous Lot was sore distressed by the gross misconduct of immoral men He rescued him.

wmth@2Peter:2:12 @ But these men, like brute beasts, created (with their natural instincts) only to be captured or destroyed, are abusive in matters of which they are ignorant, and in their corruption will perish,

wmth@2Peter:2:16 @ But he was rebuked for his transgression: a dumb ass spoke with a human voice and checked the madness of the Prophet.

wmth@2Peter:3:3 @ But, above all, remember that, in the last days, men will come who make a mock at everything–men governed only by their own passions,

wmth@2Peter:3:7 @ But the present heavens and the present earth are, by the command of the same God, kept stored up, reserved for fire in preparation for a day of judgement and of destruction for the ungodly.

wmth@2Peter:3:8 @ But there is one thing, dear friends, which you must not forget. With the Lord one day resembles a thousand years and a thousand years resemble one day.

wmth@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow in fulfilling His promise, in the sense in which some men speak of slowness. But He bears patiently with you, His desire being that no one should perish but that all should come to repentance.

wmth@2Peter:3:13 @ But in accordance with His promise we are expecting new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness will dwell.

wmth@2Peter:3:18 @ But be always growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him be all glory, both now and to the day of Eternity!

wmth@1John:1:7 @ But if we live in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from all sin.

wmth@1John:2:2 @ and He is an atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

wmth@1John:2:5 @ But whoever obeys His Message, in him love for God has in very deed reached perfection. By this we can know that we are in Him.

wmth@1John:2:7 @ My dearly-loved friends, it is no new command that I am now giving you, but an old command which you have had from the very beginning. By the old command I mean the teaching which you have already received.

wmth@1John:2:11 @ But he who hates his brother man is in darkness and is walking in darkness; and he does not know where he is going–because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

wmth@1John:2:16 @ For the things in the world –the cravings of the earthly nature, the cravings of the eyes, the show and pride of life– they all come, not from the Father, but from the world.

wmth@1John:2:17 @ And the world, with its cravings, is passing away, but he who does God's will continues for ever.

wmth@1John:2:19 @ They have gone forth from our midst, but they did not really belong to us; for had they belonged to us, they would have remained with us. But they left us that it might be manifest that professed believers do not all belong to us.

wmth@1John:2:21 @ I have written to you, not because you are ignorant of the truth, but because you know it, and you know that nothing false comes from the truth.

wmth@1John:2:27 @ And as for you, the anointing which you received from Him remains within you, and there is no need for any one to teach you. But since His anointing gives you instruction in all things –and is true and is no falsehood– you are continuing in union with Him even as it has taught you to do.

wmth@1John:3:2 @ Dear friends, we are now God's children, but what we are to be in the future has not yet been fully revealed. We know that if Christ reappears we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him as He is.

wmth@1John:3:17 @ But if any one has this world's wealth and sees that his brother man is in need, and yet hardens his heart against him–how can such a one continue to love God?

wmth@1John:3:18 @ Dear children, let us not love in words only nor with the lips, but in deed and in truth.

wmth@1John:4:1 @ Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but put the spirits to the test to see whether they are from God; for many false teachers have gone out into the world.

wmth@1John:4:6 @ The man who is beginning to know God listens to us, but he who is not a child of God does not listen to us. By this test we can distinguish the Spirit of truth from the spirit of error.

wmth@1John:4:10 @ This is love indeed–we did not love God, but He loved us and sent His Son to be an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

wmth@1John:4:18 @ Love has in it no element of fear; but perfect love drives away fear, because fear involves pain, and if a man gives way to fear, there is something imperfect in his love.

wmth@1John:5:5 @ Who but the man that believes that Jesus is the Son of God overcomes the world?

wmth@1John:5:6 @ Jesus Christ is He who came with water and blood; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. And it is the Spirit who gives testimony– because the Spirit is the Truth.

wmth@1John:5:17 @ Any kind of wrongdoing is sin; but there is sin which is not unto death.

wmth@1John:5:18 @ We know that no one who is a child of God lives in sin, but He who is God's Child keeps him, and the Evil one cannot touch him.

wmth@2John:1:1 @ The Elder to the elect lady and her children. Truly I love you all, and not I alone, but also all who know the truth,

wmth@2John:1:5 @ And now, dear lady, I pray you –writing to you, as I do, not a new command, but the one which we have had from the very beginning– let us love one another.

wmth@2John:1:8 @ Keep guard over yourselves, so that you may not lose the results of your good deeds, but may receive back a full reward.

wmth@2John:1:9 @ No one has God, who instead of remaining true to the teaching of Christ, presses on in advance: but he who remains true to that teaching has both the Father and the Son.

wmth@2John:1:12 @ I have a great deal to say to you all, but will not write it with paper and ink. Yet I hope to come to see you and speak face to face, so that your happiness may be complete.

wmth@3John:1:9 @ I wrote to the Church, but Diotrephes, who loves to have the first place among them, refuses to listen to us.

wmth@3John:1:10 @ For this reason, if I come, I shall not forget his conduct, nor his idle and mischievous talk against us. And he does not stop there: he not only will not receive the brethren, but those who desire to do this he hinders, and excludes them from the Church.

wmth@3John:1:11 @ My dear friend, do not follow wrong examples, but right ones. He who habitually does what is right is a child of God: he who habitually does what is wrong has not seen God.

wmth@3John:1:13 @ I have a great deal to say to you, but I do not wish to go on writing it with ink and pen.

wmth@3John:1:14 @ But I hope to see you very soon, and then we will speak face to face. Peace be with you. Our friends send greetings to you. Greet our friends individually.

wmth@Jude:1:5 @ I desire to remind you –although the whole matter is already familiar to you– that the Lord saved a people out of the land of Egypt, but afterwards destroyed those who had no faith.

wmth@Jude:1:6 @ And angels –those who did not keep the position originally assigned to them, but deserted their own proper abode– He reserves in everlasting bonds, in darkness, in preparation for the judgement of the great day.

wmth@Jude:1:9 @ But Michael the Archangel, when contending with the Devil and arguing with him about the body of Moses, did not dare to pronounce judgement on him in abusive terms, but simply said, »The Lord rebuke you.«

wmth@Jude:1:17 @ But as for you, my dearly-loved friends, remember the words that before now were spoken by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ–

wmth@Jude:1:20 @ But you, my dearly-loved friends, building yourselves up on the basis of your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,

wmth@Jude:1:24 @ But to Him who is able to keep you safe from stumbling, and cause you to stand in the presence of His glory free from blemish and full of exultant joy–
