nkjv@Matthew:1:17 @ So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, from David until the captivity in Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the captivity in Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations.

nkjv@Matthew:1:18 @ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Matthew:1:20 @ But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Matthew:1:22 @ So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:

nkjv@Matthew:1:23 @ "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us."

nkjv@Matthew:2:3 @ When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

nkjv@Matthew:2:5 @ So they said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet:

nkjv@Matthew:2:9 @ When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was.

nkjv@Matthew:2:10 @ When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.

nkjv@Matthew:2:11 @ And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

nkjv@Matthew:2:15 @ and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "Out of Egypt I called My Son."

nkjv@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men.

nkjv@Matthew:2:23 @ And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, "He shall be called a Nazarene."

nkjv@Matthew:3:4 @ Now John himself was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather belt around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

nkjv@Matthew:3:8 @ Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance,

nkjv@Matthew:3:10 @ And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

nkjv@Matthew:3:11 @ I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

nkjv@Matthew:3:12 @ His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."

nkjv@Matthew:3:15 @ But Jesus answered and said to him, "Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he allowed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:3:16 @ When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.

nkjv@Matthew:4:1 @ Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

nkjv@Matthew:4:4 @ But He answered and said, "It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God."'

nkjv@Matthew:4:5 @ Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple,

nkjv@Matthew:4:6 @ and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: "He shall give His angels charge over you,' and, "In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone."'

nkjv@Matthew:4:7 @ Jesus said to him, "It is written again, "You shall not tempt the LORD your God."'

nkjv@Matthew:4:10 @ Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, "You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve."'

nkjv@Matthew:4:14 @ that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:

nkjv@Matthew:4:21 @ Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them,

nkjv@Matthew:4:24 @ Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them.

nkjv@Matthew:4:25 @ Great multitudes followed Him--from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.

nkjv@Matthew:5:1 @ And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him.

nkjv@Matthew:5:3 @ "Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:5:5 @ Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth.

nkjv@Matthew:5:13 @ "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

nkjv@Matthew:5:14 @ "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

nkjv@Matthew:5:15 @ Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

nkjv@Matthew:5:18 @ For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

nkjv@Matthew:5:21 @ "You have heard that it was said to those of old, "You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.'

nkjv@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, "Raca!' shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, "You fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire.

nkjv@Matthew:5:25 @ Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are on the way with him, lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, the judge hand you over to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.

nkjv@Matthew:5:27 @ "You have heard that it was said to those of old, "You shall not commit adultery.'

nkjv@Matthew:5:28 @ But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

nkjv@Matthew:5:29 @ If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

nkjv@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

nkjv@Matthew:5:31 @ "Furthermore it has been said, "Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.'

nkjv@Matthew:5:32 @ But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.

nkjv@Matthew:5:33 @ "Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, "You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.'

nkjv@Matthew:5:34 @ But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne;

nkjv@Matthew:5:35 @ nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

nkjv@Matthew:5:36 @ Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black.

nkjv@Matthew:5:38 @ "You have heard that it was said, "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.'

nkjv@Matthew:5:41 @ And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.

nkjv@Matthew:5:43 @ "You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'

nkjv@Matthew:5:44 @ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,

nkjv@Matthew:6:1 @ "Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:6:2 @ Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

nkjv@Matthew:6:3 @ But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

nkjv@Matthew:6:4 @ that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.

nkjv@Matthew:6:5 @ "And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

nkjv@Matthew:6:7 @ And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.

nkjv@Matthew:6:10 @ Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:6:15 @ But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

nkjv@Matthew:6:16 @ "Moreover, when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance. For they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

nkjv@Matthew:6:20 @ but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.

nkjv@Matthew:6:24 @ "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

nkjv@Matthew:6:26 @ Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

nkjv@Matthew:6:27 @ Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

nkjv@Matthew:6:28 @ "So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;

nkjv@Matthew:6:30 @ Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

nkjv@Matthew:6:34 @ Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

nkjv@Matthew:7:2 @ For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.

nkjv@Matthew:7:5 @ Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.

nkjv@Matthew:7:7 @ "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

nkjv@Matthew:7:8 @ For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

nkjv@Matthew:7:13 @ "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.

nkjv@Matthew:7:14 @ Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

nkjv@Matthew:7:16 @ You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?

nkjv@Matthew:7:17 @ Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.

nkjv@Matthew:7:18 @ A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.

nkjv@Matthew:7:19 @ Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

nkjv@Matthew:7:20 @ Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

nkjv@Matthew:7:25 @ and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

nkjv@Matthew:7:27 @ and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall."

nkjv@Matthew:7:28 @ And so it was, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the people were astonished at His teaching,

nkjv@Matthew:7:29 @ for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

nkjv@Matthew:8:1 @ When He had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:8:5 @ Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him,

nkjv@Matthew:8:9 @ For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, "Go,' and he goes; and to another, "Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, "Do this,' and he does it."

nkjv@Matthew:8:10 @ When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, "Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!

nkjv@Matthew:8:11 @ And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:8:13 @ Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you." And his servant was healed that same hour.

nkjv@Matthew:8:14 @ Now when Jesus had come into Peter's house, He saw his wife's mother lying sick with a fever.

nkjv@Matthew:8:16 @ When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick,

nkjv@Matthew:8:17 @ that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying: "He Himself took our infirmities And bore our sicknesses."

nkjv@Matthew:8:18 @ And when Jesus saw great multitudes about Him, He gave a command to depart to the other side.

nkjv@Matthew:8:24 @ And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep.

nkjv@Matthew:8:26 @ But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?" Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.

nkjv@Matthew:8:29 @ And suddenly they cried out, saying, "What have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?"

nkjv@Matthew:8:31 @ So the demons begged Him, saying, "If You cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine."

nkjv@Matthew:8:33 @ Then those who kept them fled; and they went away into the city and told everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men.

nkjv@Matthew:8:34 @ And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged Him to depart from their region.

nkjv@Matthew:9:1 @ So He got into a boat, crossed over, and came to His own city.

nkjv@Matthew:9:2 @ Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you."

nkjv@Matthew:9:3 @ And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, "This Man blasphemes!"

nkjv@Matthew:9:8 @ Now when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power to men.

nkjv@Matthew:9:9 @ As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:9:10 @ Now it happened, as Jesus sat at the table in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples.

nkjv@Matthew:9:11 @ And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to His disciples, "Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?"

nkjv@Matthew:9:15 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.

nkjv@Matthew:9:22 @ But Jesus turned around, and when He saw her He said, "Be of good cheer, daughter; your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that hour.

nkjv@Matthew:9:29 @ Then He touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith let it be to you."

nkjv@Matthew:9:30 @ And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, saying, "See that no one knows it."

nkjv@Matthew:9:33 @ And when the demon was cast out, the mute spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, "It was never seen like this in Israel!"

nkjv@Matthew:9:35 @ Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

nkjv@Matthew:9:36 @ But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.

nkjv@Matthew:10:1 @ And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.

nkjv@Matthew:10:4 @ Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:10:5 @ These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: "Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans.

nkjv@Matthew:10:9 @ Provide neither gold nor silver nor copper in your money belts,

nkjv@Matthew:10:11 @ "Now whatever city or town you enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and stay there till you go out.

nkjv@Matthew:10:12 @ And when you go into a household, greet it.

nkjv@Matthew:10:13 @ If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.

nkjv@Matthew:10:14 @ And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.

nkjv@Matthew:10:15 @ Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!

nkjv@Matthew:10:19 @ But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak;

nkjv@Matthew:10:20 @ for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

nkjv@Matthew:10:23 @ When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

nkjv@Matthew:10:25 @ It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household!

nkjv@Matthew:10:39 @ He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.

nkjv@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward."

nkjv@Matthew:11:1 @ Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities.

nkjv@Matthew:11:7 @ As they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

nkjv@Matthew:11:10 @ For this is he of whom it is written: "Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.'

nkjv@Matthew:11:12 @ And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.

nkjv@Matthew:11:14 @ And if you are willing to receive it, he is Elijah who is to come.

nkjv@Matthew:11:16 @ "But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their companions,

nkjv@Matthew:11:18 @ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, "He has a demon.'

nkjv@Matthew:11:20 @ Then He began to rebuke the cities in which most of His mighty works had been done, because they did not repent:

nkjv@Matthew:11:22 @ But I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you.

nkjv@Matthew:11:23 @ And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades; for if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

nkjv@Matthew:11:24 @ But I say to you that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for you."

nkjv@Matthew:11:26 @ Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.

nkjv@Matthew:12:2 @ And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to Him, "Look, Your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath!"

nkjv@Matthew:12:3 @ But He said to them, "Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him:

nkjv@Matthew:12:4 @ how he entered the house of God and ate the showbread which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?

nkjv@Matthew:12:10 @ And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?"--that they might accuse Him.

nkjv@Matthew:12:11 @ Then He said to them, "What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?

nkjv@Matthew:12:12 @ Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."

nkjv@Matthew:12:13 @ Then He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." And he stretched it out, and it was restored as whole as the other.

nkjv@Matthew:12:15 @ But when Jesus knew it, He withdrew from there. And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them all.

nkjv@Matthew:12:17 @ that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:

nkjv@Matthew:12:18 @ "Behold! My Servant whom I have chosen, My Beloved in whom My soul is well pleased! I will put My Spirit upon Him, And He will declare justice to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Matthew:12:23 @ And all the multitudes were amazed and said, "Could this be the Son of David?"

nkjv@Matthew:12:24 @ Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, "This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons."

nkjv@Matthew:12:25 @ But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.

nkjv@Matthew:12:28 @ But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.

nkjv@Matthew:12:30 @ He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.

nkjv@Matthew:12:31 @ "Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.

nkjv@Matthew:12:32 @ Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.

nkjv@Matthew:12:33 @ "Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.

nkjv@Matthew:12:36 @ But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.

nkjv@Matthew:12:39 @ But He answered and said to them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

nkjv@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

nkjv@Matthew:12:42 @ The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.

nkjv@Matthew:12:43 @ "When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none.

nkjv@Matthew:12:44 @ Then he says, "I will return to my house from which I came.' And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.

nkjv@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation."

nkjv@Matthew:12:46 @ While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him.

nkjv@Matthew:12:47 @ Then one said to Him, "Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with You."

nkjv@Matthew:13:2 @ And great multitudes were gathered together to Him, so that He got into a boat and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

nkjv@Matthew:13:6 @ But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered away.

nkjv@Matthew:13:11 @ He answered and said to them, "Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

nkjv@Matthew:13:15 @ For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.'

nkjv@Matthew:13:17 @ for assuredly, I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

nkjv@Matthew:13:19 @ When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is he who received seed by the wayside.

nkjv@Matthew:13:20 @ But he who received the seed on stony places, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;

nkjv@Matthew:13:22 @ Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.

nkjv@Matthew:13:23 @ But he who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."

nkjv@Matthew:13:27 @ So the servants of the owner came and said to him, "Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?'

nkjv@Matthew:13:29 @ But he said, "No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them.

nkjv@Matthew:13:32 @ which indeed is the least of all the seeds; but when it is grown it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches."

nkjv@Matthew:13:33 @ Another parable He spoke to them: "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened."

nkjv@Matthew:13:34 @ All these things Jesus spoke to the multitude in parables; and without a parable He did not speak to them,

nkjv@Matthew:13:35 @ that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: "I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things kept secret from the foundation of the world."

nkjv@Matthew:13:36 @ Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field."

nkjv@Matthew:13:40 @ Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age.

nkjv@Matthew:13:44 @ "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.

nkjv@Matthew:13:46 @ who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.

nkjv@Matthew:13:48 @ which, when it was full, they drew to shore; and they sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but threw the bad away.

nkjv@Matthew:13:56 @ And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?"

nkjv@Matthew:13:57 @ So they were offended at Him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house."

nkjv@Matthew:14:4 @ Because John had said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."

nkjv@Matthew:14:5 @ And although he wanted to put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

nkjv@Matthew:14:7 @ Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.

nkjv@Matthew:14:9 @ And the king was sorry; nevertheless, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he commanded it to be given to her.

nkjv@Matthew:14:11 @ And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.

nkjv@Matthew:14:12 @ Then his disciples came and took away the body and buried it, and went and told Jesus.

nkjv@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard it, He departed from there by boat to a deserted place by Himself. But when the multitudes heard it, they followed Him on foot from the cities.

nkjv@Matthew:14:14 @ And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.

nkjv@Matthew:14:15 @ When it was evening, His disciples came to Him, saying, "This is a deserted place, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food."

nkjv@Matthew:14:19 @ Then He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.

nkjv@Matthew:14:22 @ Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He sent the multitudes away.

nkjv@Matthew:14:23 @ And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there.

nkjv@Matthew:14:26 @ And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, "It is a ghost!" And they cried out for fear.

nkjv@Matthew:14:28 @ And Peter answered Him and said, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water."

nkjv@Matthew:14:31 @ And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?"

nkjv@Matthew:15:2 @ "Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread."

nkjv@Matthew:15:3 @ He answered and said to them, "Why do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition?

nkjv@Matthew:15:34 @ Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?" And they said, "Seven, and a few little fish."

nkjv@Matthew:15:35 @ So He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.

nkjv@Matthew:15:36 @ And He took the seven loaves and the fish and gave thanks, broke them and gave them to His disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitude.

nkjv@Matthew:16:7 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "It is because we have taken no bread."

nkjv@Matthew:16:8 @ But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, "O you of little faith, why do you reason among yourselves because you have brought no bread?

nkjv@Matthew:16:22 @ Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, "Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!"

nkjv@Matthew:16:25 @ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

nkjv@Matthew:16:26 @ For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?

nkjv@Matthew:17:18 @ And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour.

nkjv@Matthew:17:19 @ Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not cast it out?"

nkjv@Matthew:26:7 @ a woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly fragrant oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at the table.

nkjv@Matthew:26:8 @ But when His disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste?

nkjv@Matthew:26:20 @ When evening had come, He sat down with the twelve.

nkjv@Matthew:26:22 @ And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and each of them began to say to Him, "Lord, is it I?"

nkjv@Matthew:26:23 @ He answered and said, "He who dipped his hand with Me in the dish will betray Me.

nkjv@Matthew:26:24 @ The Son of Man indeed goes just as it is written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born."

nkjv@Matthew:26:25 @ Then Judas, who was betraying Him, answered and said, "Rabbi, is it I?" He said to him, "You have said it."

nkjv@Matthew:26:26 @ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."

nkjv@Matthew:26:36 @ Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to the disciples, "Sit here while I go and pray over there."

nkjv@Matthew:26:37 @ And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and He began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.

nkjv@Matthew:26:38 @ Then He said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with Me."

nkjv@Matthew:26:39 @ He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will."

nkjv@Matthew:26:40 @ Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "What! Could you not watch with Me one hour?

nkjv@Matthew:26:41 @ Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

nkjv@Matthew:26:42 @ Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done."

nkjv@Matthew:26:47 @ And while He was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and elders of the people.

nkjv@Matthew:26:54 @ How then could the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must happen thus?"

nkjv@Matthew:26:55 @ In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, "Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take Me? I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you did not seize Me.

nkjv@Matthew:26:58 @ But Peter followed Him at a distance to the high priest's courtyard. And he went in and sat with the servants to see the end.

nkjv@Matthew:26:61 @ and said, "This fellow said, "I am able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days."'

nkjv@Matthew:26:62 @ And the high priest arose and said to Him, "Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?"

nkjv@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus said to him, "It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven."

nkjv@Matthew:26:65 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes, saying, "He has spoken blasphemy! What further need do we have of witnesses? Look, now you have heard His blasphemy!

nkjv@Matthew:26:67 @ Then they spat in His face and beat Him; and others struck Him with the palms of their hands,

nkjv@Matthew:26:69 @ Now Peter sat outside in the courtyard. And a servant girl came to him, saying, "You also were with Jesus of Galilee."

nkjv@Matthew:26:70 @ But he denied it before them all, saying, "I do not know what you are saying."

nkjv@Matthew:26:71 @ And when he had gone out to the gateway, another girl saw him and said to those who were there, "This fellow also was with Jesus of Nazareth."

nkjv@Matthew:26:72 @ But again he denied with an oath, "I do not know the Man!"

nkjv@Matthew:26:73 @ And a little later those who stood by came up and said to Peter, "Surely you also are one of them, for your speech betrays you."

nkjv@Matthew:26:75 @ And Peter remembered the word of Jesus who had said to him, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times." So he went out and wept bitterly.

nkjv@Matthew:27:4 @ saying, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood." And they said, "What is that to us? You see to it!"

nkjv@Matthew:27:6 @ But the chief priests took the silver pieces and said, "It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because they are the price of blood."

nkjv@Matthew:27:7 @ And they consulted together and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

nkjv@Matthew:27:11 @ Now Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor asked Him, saying, "Are You the King of the Jews?" Jesus said to him, "It is as you say."

nkjv@Matthew:27:15 @ Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished.

nkjv@Matthew:27:19 @ While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that just Man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of Him."

nkjv@Matthew:27:20 @ But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.

nkjv@Matthew:27:22 @ Pilate said to them, "What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?" They all said to him, "Let Him be crucified!"

nkjv@Matthew:27:24 @ When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, "I am innocent of the blood of this just Person. You see to it."

nkjv@Matthew:27:29 @ When they had twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!"

nkjv@Matthew:27:34 @ they gave Him sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.

nkjv@Matthew:27:35 @ Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet: "They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots."

nkjv@Matthew:27:36 @ Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.

nkjv@Matthew:27:37 @ And they put up over His head the accusation written against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@Matthew:27:38 @ Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.

nkjv@Matthew:27:40 @ and saying, "You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross."

nkjv@Matthew:27:41 @ Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said,

nkjv@Matthew:27:44 @ Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.

nkjv@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" that is, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"

nkjv@Matthew:27:48 @ Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.

nkjv@Matthew:27:50 @ And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.

nkjv@Matthew:27:51 @ Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split,

nkjv@Matthew:27:53 @ and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

nkjv@Matthew:27:54 @ So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

nkjv@Matthew:27:59 @ When Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

nkjv@Matthew:27:60 @ and laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.

nkjv@Matthew:27:61 @ And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.

nkjv@Matthew:27:65 @ Pilate said to them, "You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you know how."

nkjv@Matthew:28:2 @ And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it.

nkjv@Matthew:28:3 @ His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.

nkjv@Matthew:28:8 @ So they went out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring His disciples word.

nkjv@Matthew:28:11 @ Now while they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all the things that had happened.

nkjv@Matthew:28:12 @ When they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,

nkjv@Matthew:28:18 @ And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.

nkjv@Matthew:28:19 @ Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Matthew:28:20 @ teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.

nkjv@Mark:1:2 @ As it is written in the Prophets: "Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You."

nkjv@Mark:1:6 @ Now John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.

nkjv@Mark:1:8 @ I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Mark:1:9 @ It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

nkjv@Mark:1:10 @ And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.

nkjv@Mark:1:12 @ Immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.

nkjv@Mark:1:13 @ And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:19 @ When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.

nkjv@Mark:1:20 @ And immediately He called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:22 @ And they were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

nkjv@Mark:1:23 @ Now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit. And he cried out,

nkjv@Mark:1:24 @ saying, "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are--the Holy One of God!"

nkjv@Mark:1:26 @ And when the unclean spirit had convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice, he came out of him.

nkjv@Mark:1:27 @ Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."

nkjv@Mark:1:29 @ Now as soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

nkjv@Mark:1:30 @ But Simon's wife's mother lay sick with a fever, and they told Him about her at once.

nkjv@Mark:1:33 @ And the whole city was gathered together at the door.

nkjv@Mark:1:34 @ Then He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:35 @ Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed.

nkjv@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon and those who were with Him searched for Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:41 @ Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing; be cleansed."

nkjv@Mark:1:45 @ However, he went out and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread the matter, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter the city, but was outside in deserted places; and they came to Him from every direction.

nkjv@Mark:2:1 @ And again He entered Capernaum after some days, and it was heard that He was in the house.

nkjv@Mark:2:5 @ When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven you."

nkjv@Mark:2:6 @ And some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts,

nkjv@Mark:2:8 @ But immediately, when Jesus perceived in His spirit that they reasoned thus within themselves, He said to them, "Why do you reason about these things in your hearts?

nkjv@Mark:2:13 @ Then He went out again by the sea; and all the multitude came to Him, and He taught them.

nkjv@Mark:2:14 @ As He passed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him.

nkjv@Mark:2:15 @ Now it happened, as He was dining in Levi's house, that many tax collectors and sinners also sat together with Jesus and His disciples; for there were many, and they followed Him.

nkjv@Mark:2:16 @ And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, they said to His disciples, "How is it that He eats and drinks with tax collectors and sinners?"

nkjv@Mark:2:17 @ When Jesus heard it, He said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance."

nkjv@Mark:2:19 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast.

nkjv@Mark:2:23 @ Now it happened that He went through the grainfields on the Sabbath; and as they went His disciples began to pluck the heads of grain.

nkjv@Mark:2:25 @ But He said to them, "Have you never read what David did when he was in need and hungry, he and those with him:

nkjv@Mark:2:26 @ how he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the showbread, which is not lawful to eat except for the priests, and also gave some to those who were with him?"

nkjv@Mark:3:1 @ And He entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a withered hand.

nkjv@Mark:3:3 @ And He said to the man who had the withered hand, "Step forward."

nkjv@Mark:3:4 @ Then He said to them, "Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?" But they kept silent.

nkjv@Mark:3:5 @ And when He had looked around at them with anger, being grieved by the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored as whole as the other.

nkjv@Mark:3:6 @ Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:7 @ But Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the sea. And a great multitude from Galilee followed Him, and from Judea

nkjv@Mark:3:8 @ and Jerusalem and Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and those from Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard how many things He was doing, came to Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:9 @ So He told His disciples that a small boat should be kept ready for Him because of the multitude, lest they should crush Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:11 @ And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw Him, fell down before Him and cried out, saying, "You are the Son of God."

nkjv@Mark:3:14 @ Then He appointed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach,

nkjv@Mark:3:18 @ Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite;

nkjv@Mark:3:20 @ Then the multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

nkjv@Mark:3:24 @ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

nkjv@Mark:3:25 @ And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

nkjv@Mark:3:29 @ but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation"--

nkjv@Mark:3:30 @ because they said, "He has an unclean spirit."

nkjv@Mark:3:32 @ And a multitude was sitting around Him; and they said to Him, "Look, Your mother and Your brothers are outside seeking You."

nkjv@Mark:4:1 @ And again He began to teach by the sea. And a great multitude was gathered to Him, so that He got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole multitude was on the land facing the sea.

nkjv@Mark:4:4 @ And it happened, as he sowed, that some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds of the air came and devoured it.

nkjv@Mark:4:5 @ Some fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth; and immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of earth.

nkjv@Mark:4:6 @ But when the sun was up it was scorched, and because it had no root it withered away.

nkjv@Mark:4:7 @ And some seed fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no crop.

nkjv@Mark:4:10 @ But when He was alone, those around Him with the twelve asked Him about the parable.

nkjv@Mark:4:11 @ And He said to them, "To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables,

nkjv@Mark:4:16 @ These likewise are the ones sown on stony ground who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

nkjv@Mark:4:19 @ and the cares of this world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires for other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

nkjv@Mark:4:20 @ But these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred."

nkjv@Mark:4:21 @ Also He said to them, "Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand?

nkjv@Mark:4:22 @ For there is nothing hidden which will not be revealed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light.

nkjv@Mark:4:24 @ Then He said to them, "Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given.

nkjv@Mark:4:28 @ For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head.

nkjv@Mark:4:30 @ Then He said, "To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? Or with what parable shall we picture it?

nkjv@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a mustard seed which, when it is sown on the ground, is smaller than all the seeds on earth;

nkjv@Mark:4:32 @ but when it is sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out large branches, so that the birds of the air may nest under its shade."

nkjv@Mark:4:33 @ And with many such parables He spoke the word to them as they were able to hear it.

nkjv@Mark:4:34 @ But without a parable He did not speak to them. And when they were alone, He explained all things to His disciples.

nkjv@Mark:4:36 @ Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him.

nkjv@Mark:4:37 @ And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling.

nkjv@Mark:4:40 @ But He said to them, "Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?"

nkjv@Mark:5:2 @ And when He had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

nkjv@Mark:5:3 @ who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no one could bind him, not even with chains,

nkjv@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains had been pulled apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces; neither could anyone tame him.

nkjv@Mark:5:5 @ And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones.

nkjv@Mark:5:7 @ And he cried out with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me."

nkjv@Mark:5:8 @ For He said to him, "Come out of the man, unclean spirit!"

nkjv@Mark:5:13 @ And at once Jesus gave them permission. Then the unclean spirits went out and entered the swine (there were about two thousand); and the herd ran violently down the steep place into the sea, and drowned in the sea.

nkjv@Mark:5:14 @ So those who fed the swine fled, and they told it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had happened.

nkjv@Mark:5:15 @ Then they came to Jesus, and saw the one who had been demon-possessed and had the legion, sitting and clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

nkjv@Mark:5:16 @ And those who saw it told them how it happened to him who had been demon-possessed, and about the swine.

nkjv@Mark:5:17 @ Then they began to plead with Him to depart from their region.

nkjv@Mark:5:18 @ And when He got into the boat, he who had been demon-possessed begged Him that he might be with Him.

nkjv@Mark:5:19 @ However, Jesus did not permit him, but said to him, "Go home to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He has had compassion on you."

nkjv@Mark:5:21 @ Now when Jesus had crossed over again by boat to the other side, a great multitude gathered to Him; and He was by the sea.

nkjv@Mark:5:23 @ and begged Him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come and lay Your hands on her, that she may be healed, and she will live."

nkjv@Mark:5:24 @ So Jesus went with him, and a great multitude followed Him and thronged Him.

nkjv@Mark:5:31 @ But His disciples said to Him, "You see the multitude thronging You, and You say, "Who touched Me?"'

nkjv@Mark:5:34 @ And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction."

nkjv@Mark:5:37 @ And He permitted no one to follow Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

nkjv@Mark:5:40 @ And they ridiculed Him. But when He had put them all outside, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with Him, and entered where the child was lying.

nkjv@Mark:5:41 @ Then He took the child by the hand, and said to her, "Talitha, cumi," which is translated, "Little girl, I say to you, arise."

nkjv@Mark:5:42 @ Immediately the girl arose and walked, for she was twelve years of age. And they were overcome with great amazement.

nkjv@Mark:5:43 @ But He commanded them strictly that no one should know it, and said that something should be given her to eat.

nkjv@Mark:6:3 @ Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?" So they were offended at Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:4 @ But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house."

nkjv@Mark:6:6 @ And He marveled because of their unbelief. Then He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching.

nkjv@Mark:6:7 @ And He called the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.

nkjv@Mark:6:11 @ And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!"

nkjv@Mark:6:13 @ And they cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many who were sick, and healed them.

nkjv@Mark:6:15 @ Others said, "It is Elijah." And others said, "It is the Prophet, or like one of the prophets."

nkjv@Mark:6:18 @ Because John had said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."

nkjv@Mark:6:19 @ Therefore Herodias held it against him and wanted to kill him, but she could not;

nkjv@Mark:6:22 @ And when Herodias' daughter herself came in and danced, and pleased Herod and those who sat with him, the king said to the girl, "Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you."

nkjv@Mark:6:25 @ Immediately she came in with haste to the king and asked, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

nkjv@Mark:6:26 @ And the king was exceedingly sorry; yet, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he did not want to refuse her.

nkjv@Mark:6:28 @ brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

nkjv@Mark:6:29 @ When his disciples heard of it, they came and took away his corpse and laid it in a tomb.

nkjv@Mark:6:33 @ But the multitudes saw them departing, and many knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:34 @ And Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. So He began to teach them many things.

nkjv@Mark:6:39 @ Then He commanded them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass.

nkjv@Mark:6:45 @ Immediately He made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while He sent the multitude away.

nkjv@Mark:6:49 @ And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed it was a ghost, and cried out;

nkjv@Mark:6:50 @ for they all saw Him and were troubled. But immediately He talked with them and said to them, "Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid."

nkjv@Mark:6:56 @ Wherever He entered, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged Him that they might just touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made well.

nkjv@Mark:7:2 @ Now when they saw some of His disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, with unwashed hands, they found fault.

nkjv@Mark:7:3 @ For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands in a special way, holding the tradition of the elders.

nkjv@Mark:7:4 @ When they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other things which they have received and hold, like the washing of cups, pitchers, copper vessels, and couches.

nkjv@Mark:7:5 @ Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, "Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?"

nkjv@Mark:7:6 @ He answered and said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: "This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me.

nkjv@Mark:7:8 @ For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men --the washing of pitchers and cups, and many other such things you do."

nkjv@Mark:7:9 @ He said to them, "All too well you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition.

nkjv@Mark:7:11 @ But you say, "If a man says to his father or mother, "Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban"--' (that is, a gift to God),

nkjv@Mark:7:13 @ making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do."

nkjv@Mark:7:14 @ When He had called all the multitude to Himself, He said to them, "Hear Me, everyone, and understand:

nkjv@Mark:7:18 @ So He said to them, "Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him,

nkjv@Mark:7:19 @ because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods?"

nkjv@Mark:7:21 @ For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

nkjv@Mark:7:22 @ thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.

nkjv@Mark:7:23 @ All these evil things come from within and defile a man."

nkjv@Mark:7:24 @ From there He arose and went to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And He entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be hidden.

nkjv@Mark:7:25 @ For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him, and she came and fell at His feet.

nkjv@Mark:7:27 @ But Jesus said to her, "Let the children be filled first, for it is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs."

nkjv@Mark:7:28 @ And she answered and said to Him, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs under the table eat from the children's crumbs."

nkjv@Mark:7:33 @ And He took him aside from the multitude, and put His fingers in his ears, and He spat and touched his tongue.

nkjv@Mark:7:36 @ Then He commanded them that they should tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more widely they proclaimed it.

nkjv@Mark:8:1 @ In those days, the multitude being very great and having nothing to eat, Jesus called His disciples to Him and said to them,

nkjv@Mark:8:2 @ "I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now continued with Me three days and have nothing to eat.

nkjv@Mark:8:4 @ Then His disciples answered Him, "How can one satisfy these people with bread here in the wilderness?"

nkjv@Mark:8:6 @ So He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground. And He took the seven loaves and gave thanks, broke them and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and they set them before the multitude.

nkjv@Mark:8:10 @ immediately got into the boat with His disciples, and came to the region of Dalmanutha.

nkjv@Mark:8:11 @ Then the Pharisees came out and began to dispute with Him, seeking from Him a sign from heaven, testing Him.

nkjv@Mark:8:12 @ But He sighed deeply in His spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Assuredly, I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation."

nkjv@Mark:8:14 @ Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, and they did not have more than one loaf with them in the boat.

nkjv@Mark:8:16 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "It is because we have no bread."

nkjv@Mark:8:17 @ But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, "Why do you reason because you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive nor understand? Is your heart still hardened?

nkjv@Mark:8:21 @ So He said to them, "How is it you do not understand?"

nkjv@Mark:8:23 @ So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. And when He had spit on his eyes and put His hands on him, He asked him if he saw anything.

nkjv@Mark:8:26 @ Then He sent him away to his house, saying, "Neither go into the town, nor tell anyone in the town."

nkjv@Mark:8:34 @ When He had called the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, "Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.

nkjv@Mark:8:35 @ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel's will save it.

nkjv@Mark:8:36 @ For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

nkjv@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels."

nkjv@Mark:9:1 @ And He said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see the kingdom of God present with power."

nkjv@Mark:9:3 @ His clothes became shining, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

nkjv@Mark:9:4 @ And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

nkjv@Mark:9:5 @ Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--

nkjv@Mark:9:8 @ Suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.

nkjv@Mark:9:12 @ Then He answered and told them, "Indeed, Elijah is coming first and restores all things. And how is it written concerning the Son of Man, that He must suffer many things and be treated with contempt?

nkjv@Mark:9:13 @ But I say to you that Elijah has also come, and they did to him whatever they wished, as it is written of him."

nkjv@Mark:9:14 @ And when He came to the disciples, He saw a great multitude around them, and scribes disputing with them.

nkjv@Mark:9:16 @ And He asked the scribes, "What are you discussing with them?"

nkjv@Mark:9:17 @ Then one of the crowd answered and said, "Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a mute spirit.

nkjv@Mark:9:18 @ And wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I spoke to Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could not."

nkjv@Mark:9:19 @ He answered him and said, "O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me."

nkjv@Mark:9:20 @ Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.

nkjv@Mark:9:24 @ Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!"

nkjv@Mark:9:25 @ When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!"

nkjv@Mark:9:26 @ Then the spirit cried out, convulsed him greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead, so that many said, "He is dead."

nkjv@Mark:9:28 @ And when He had come into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?"

nkjv@Mark:9:30 @ Then they departed from there and passed through Galilee, and He did not want anyone to know it.

nkjv@Mark:9:33 @ Then He came to Capernaum. And when He was in the house He asked them, "What was it you disputed among yourselves on the road?"

nkjv@Mark:9:36 @ Then He took a little child and set him in the midst of them. And when He had taken him in His arms, He said to them,

nkjv@Mark:9:37 @ "Whoever receives one of these little children in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me, receives not Me but Him who sent Me."

nkjv@Mark:9:42 @ "But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.

nkjv@Mark:9:43 @ If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched--

nkjv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched--

nkjv@Mark:9:47 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire--

nkjv@Mark:9:49 @ "For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.

nkjv@Mark:9:50 @ Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another."

nkjv@Mark:10:1 @ Then He arose from there and came to the region of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And multitudes gathered to Him again, and as He was accustomed, He taught them again.

nkjv@Mark:10:2 @ The Pharisees came and asked Him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?" testing Him.

nkjv@Mark:10:4 @ They said, "Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to dismiss her."

nkjv@Mark:10:11 @ So He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.

nkjv@Mark:10:12 @ And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery."

nkjv@Mark:10:13 @ Then they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them.

nkjv@Mark:10:14 @ But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and said to them, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.

nkjv@Mark:10:15 @ Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it."

nkjv@Mark:10:17 @ Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?"

nkjv@Mark:10:19 @ You know the commandments: "Do not commit adultery,' "Do not murder,' "Do not steal,' "Do not bear false witness,' "Do not defraud,' "Honor your father and your mother."'

nkjv@Mark:10:23 @ Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!"

nkjv@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!

nkjv@Mark:10:25 @ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Mark:10:27 @ But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible."

nkjv@Mark:10:30 @ who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time--houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions--and in the age to come, eternal life.

nkjv@Mark:10:34 @ and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again."

nkjv@Mark:10:37 @ They said to Him, "Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left, in Your glory."

nkjv@Mark:10:38 @ But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"

nkjv@Mark:10:39 @ They said to Him, "We are able." So Jesus said to them, "You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized;

nkjv@Mark:10:40 @ but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared."

nkjv@Mark:10:41 @ And when the ten heard it, they began to be greatly displeased with James and John.

nkjv@Mark:10:42 @ But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, "You know that those who are considered rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

nkjv@Mark:10:43 @ Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.

nkjv@Mark:10:46 @ Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging.

nkjv@Mark:10:47 @ And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nkjv@Mark:10:52 @ Then Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.

nkjv@Mark:11:2 @ and He said to them, "Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it.

nkjv@Mark:11:3 @ And if anyone says to you, "Why are you doing this?' say, "The Lord has need of it,' and immediately he will send it here."

nkjv@Mark:11:4 @ So they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door outside on the street, and they loosed it.

nkjv@Mark:11:7 @ Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and He sat on it.

nkjv@Mark:11:11 @ And Jesus went into Jerusalem and into the temple. So when He had looked around at all things, as the hour was already late, He went out to Bethany with the twelve.

nkjv@Mark:11:13 @ And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

nkjv@Mark:11:14 @ In response Jesus said to it, "Let no one eat fruit from you ever again." And His disciples heard it.

nkjv@Mark:11:17 @ Then He taught, saying to them, "Is it not written, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations'? But you have made it a "den of thieves."'

nkjv@Mark:11:18 @ And the scribes and chief priests heard it and sought how they might destroy Him; for they feared Him, because all the people were astonished at His teaching.

nkjv@Mark:11:19 @ When evening had come, He went out of the city.

nkjv@Mark:11:21 @ And Peter, remembering, said to Him, "Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away."

nkjv@Mark:11:22 @ So Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in God.

nkjv@Mark:11:26 @ But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses."

nkjv@Mark:11:28 @ And they said to Him, "By what authority are You doing these things? And who gave You this authority to do these things?"

nkjv@Mark:11:29 @ But Jesus answered and said to them, "I also will ask you one question; then answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:

nkjv@Mark:11:30 @ The baptism of John--was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me."

nkjv@Mark:11:33 @ So they answered and said to Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus answered and said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."

nkjv@Mark:12:1 @ Then He began to speak to them in parables: "A man planted a vineyard and set a hedge around it, dug a place for the wine vat and built a tower. And he leased it to vinedressers and went into a far country.

nkjv@Mark:12:2 @ Now at vintage-time he sent a servant to the vinedressers, that he might receive some of the fruit of the vineyard from the vinedressers.

nkjv@Mark:12:7 @ But those vinedressers said among themselves, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

nkjv@Mark:12:11 @ This was the LORD's doing, And it is marvelous in our eyes'?"

nkjv@Mark:12:12 @ And they sought to lay hands on Him, but feared the multitude, for they knew He had spoken the parable against them. So they left Him and went away.

nkjv@Mark:12:14 @ When they had come, they said to Him, "Teacher, we know that You are true, and care about no one; for You do not regard the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

nkjv@Mark:12:15 @ Shall we pay, or shall we not pay?" But He, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, "Why do you test Me? Bring Me a denarius that I may see it."

nkjv@Mark:12:16 @ So they brought it. And He said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?" They said to Him, "Caesar's."

nkjv@Mark:12:25 @ For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

nkjv@Mark:12:30 @ And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment.

nkjv@Mark:12:31 @ And the second, like it, is this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

nkjv@Mark:12:33 @ And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."

nkjv@Mark:12:35 @ Then Jesus answered and said, while He taught in the temple, "How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

nkjv@Mark:12:36 @ For David himself said by the Holy Spirit: "The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool."'

nkjv@Mark:12:41 @ Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money into the treasury. And many who were rich put in much.

nkjv@Mark:12:42 @ Then one poor widow came and threw in two mites, which make a quadrans.

nkjv@Mark:13:3 @ Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately,

nkjv@Mark:13:11 @ But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Mark:13:14 @ "So when you see the "abomination of desolation,' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not" (let the reader understand), "then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

nkjv@Mark:13:21 @ "Then if anyone says to you, "Look, here is the Christ!' or, "Look, He is there!' do not believe it.

nkjv@Mark:13:24 @ "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;

nkjv@Mark:13:26 @ Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

nkjv@Mark:13:28 @ "Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near.

nkjv@Mark:13:29 @ So you also, when you see these things happening, know that it is near--at the doors!

nkjv@Mark:13:34 @ It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.

nkjv@Mark:14:1 @ After two days it was the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take Him by trickery and put Him to death.

nkjv@Mark:14:3 @ And being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head.

nkjv@Mark:14:5 @ For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor." And they criticized her sharply.

nkjv@Mark:14:7 @ For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you wish you may do them good; but Me you do not have always.

nkjv@Mark:14:11 @ And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. So he sought how he might conveniently betray Him.

nkjv@Mark:14:13 @ And He sent out two of His disciples and said to them, "Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him.

nkjv@Mark:14:14 @ Wherever he goes in, say to the master of the house, "The Teacher says, "Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"'

nkjv@Mark:14:16 @ So His disciples went out, and came into the city, and found it just as He had said to them; and they prepared the Passover.

nkjv@Mark:14:17 @ In the evening He came with the twelve.

nkjv@Mark:14:18 @ Now as they sat and ate, Jesus said, "Assuredly, I say to you, one of you who eats with Me will betray Me."

nkjv@Mark:14:19 @ And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to Him one by one, "Is it I?" And another said, "Is it I?"

nkjv@Mark:14:20 @ He answered and said to them, "It is one of the twelve, who dips with Me in the dish.

nkjv@Mark:14:21 @ The Son of Man indeed goes just as it is written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had never been born."

nkjv@Mark:14:22 @ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."

nkjv@Mark:14:23 @ Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

nkjv@Mark:14:25 @ Assuredly, I say to you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Mark:14:27 @ Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night, for it is written: "I will strike the Shepherd, And the sheep will be scattered.'

nkjv@Mark:14:31 @ But he spoke more vehemently, "If I have to die with You, I will not deny You!" And they all said likewise.

nkjv@Mark:14:32 @ Then they came to a place which was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, "Sit here while I pray."

nkjv@Mark:14:33 @ And He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be troubled and deeply distressed.

nkjv@Mark:14:35 @ He went a little farther, and fell on the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him.

nkjv@Mark:14:38 @ Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

nkjv@Mark:14:41 @ Then He came the third time and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

nkjv@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

nkjv@Mark:14:48 @ Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take Me?

nkjv@Mark:14:49 @ I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled."

nkjv@Mark:14:53 @ And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes.

nkjv@Mark:14:54 @ But Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire.

nkjv@Mark:14:56 @ For many bore false witness against Him, but their testimonies did not agree.

nkjv@Mark:14:57 @ Then some rose up and bore false witness against Him, saying,

nkjv@Mark:14:58 @ "We heard Him say, "I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands."'

nkjv@Mark:14:60 @ And the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, saying, "Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?"

nkjv@Mark:14:62 @ Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven."

nkjv@Mark:14:63 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "What further need do we have of witnesses?

nkjv@Mark:14:65 @ Then some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him, and to say to Him, "Prophesy!" And the officers struck Him with the palms of their hands.

nkjv@Mark:14:67 @ And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, "You also were with Jesus of Nazareth."

nkjv@Mark:14:68 @ But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you are saying." And he went out on the porch, and a rooster crowed.

nkjv@Mark:14:70 @ But he denied it again. And a little later those who stood by said to Peter again, "Surely you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it."

nkjv@Mark:14:72 @ A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." And when he thought about it, he wept.

nkjv@Mark:15:1 @ Immediately, in the morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council; and they bound Jesus, led Him away, and delivered Him to Pilate.

nkjv@Mark:15:2 @ Then Pilate asked Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?" He answered and said to him, "It is as you say."

nkjv@Mark:15:7 @ And there was one named Barabbas, who was chained with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the rebellion.

nkjv@Mark:15:8 @ Then the multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do just as he had always done for them.

nkjv@Mark:15:12 @ Pilate answered and said to them again, "What then do you want me to do with Him whom you call the King of the Jews?"

nkjv@Mark:15:17 @ And they clothed Him with purple; and they twisted a crown of thorns, put it on His head,

nkjv@Mark:15:19 @ Then they struck Him on the head with a reed and spat on Him; and bowing the knee, they worshiped Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:23 @ Then they gave Him wine mingled with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it.

nkjv@Mark:15:25 @ Now it was the third hour, and they crucified Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:26 @ And the inscription of His accusation was written above: THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@Mark:15:27 @ With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left.

nkjv@Mark:15:28 @ So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "And He was numbered with the transgressors."

nkjv@Mark:15:29 @ And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads and saying, "Aha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,

nkjv@Mark:15:31 @ Likewise the chief priests also, mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, "He saved others; Himself He cannot save.

nkjv@Mark:15:32 @ Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe." Even those who were crucified with Him reviled Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:34 @ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is translated, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"

nkjv@Mark:15:36 @ Then someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink, saying, "Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down."

nkjv@Mark:15:37 @ And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.

nkjv@Mark:15:39 @ So when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, "Truly this Man was the Son of God!"

nkjv@Mark:15:41 @ who also followed Him and ministered to Him when He was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Mark:15:42 @ Now when evening had come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,

nkjv@Mark:15:43 @ Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent council member, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, coming and taking courage, went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

nkjv@Mark:16:4 @ But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away--for it was very large.

nkjv@Mark:16:5 @ And entering the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a long white robe sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed.

nkjv@Mark:16:10 @ She went and told those who had been with Him, as they mourned and wept.

nkjv@Mark:16:13 @ And they went and told it to the rest, but they did not believe them either.

nkjv@Mark:16:17 @ And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;

nkjv@Mark:16:18 @ they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."

nkjv@Mark:16:20 @ And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

nkjv@Luke:1:2 @ just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word delivered them to us,

nkjv@Luke:1:3 @ it seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus,

nkjv@Luke:1:8 @ So it was, that while he was serving as priest before God in the order of his division,

nkjv@Luke:1:10 @ And the whole multitude of the people was praying outside at the hour of incense.

nkjv@Luke:1:15 @ For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink. He will also be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

nkjv@Luke:1:17 @ He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, "to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."

nkjv@Luke:1:21 @ And the people waited for Zacharias, and marveled that he lingered so long in the temple.

nkjv@Luke:1:23 @ So it was, as soon as the days of his service were completed, that he departed to his own house.

nkjv@Luke:1:25 @ "Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among people."

nkjv@Luke:1:26 @ Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

nkjv@Luke:1:28 @ And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!"

nkjv@Luke:1:30 @ Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.

nkjv@Luke:1:35 @ And the angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.

nkjv@Luke:1:37 @ For with God nothing will be impossible."

nkjv@Luke:1:38 @ Then Mary said, "Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her.

nkjv@Luke:1:39 @ Now Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, to a city of Judah,

nkjv@Luke:1:41 @ And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Luke:1:42 @ Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

nkjv@Luke:1:47 @ And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.

nkjv@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown strength with His arm; He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

nkjv@Luke:1:53 @ He has filled the hungry with good things, And the rich He has sent away empty.

nkjv@Luke:1:56 @ And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her house.

nkjv@Luke:1:58 @ When her neighbors and relatives heard how the Lord had shown great mercy to her, they rejoiced with her.

nkjv@Luke:1:59 @ So it was, on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him by the name of his father, Zacharias.

nkjv@Luke:1:63 @ And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, saying, "His name is John." So they all marveled.

nkjv@Luke:1:66 @ And all those who heard them kept them in their hearts, saying, "What kind of child will this be?" And the hand of the Lord was with him.

nkjv@Luke:1:67 @ Now his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying:

nkjv@Luke:1:68 @ "Blessed is the Lord God of Israel, For He has visited and redeemed His people,

nkjv@Luke:1:74 @ To grant us that we, Being delivered from the hand of our enemies, Might serve Him without fear,

nkjv@Luke:1:78 @ Through the tender mercy of our God, With which the Dayspring from on high has visited us;

nkjv@Luke:1:79 @ To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, To guide our feet into the way of peace."

nkjv@Luke:1:80 @ So the child grew and became strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his manifestation to Israel.

nkjv@Luke:2:1 @ And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered.

nkjv@Luke:2:3 @ So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city.

nkjv@Luke:2:4 @ Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,

nkjv@Luke:2:5 @ to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child.

nkjv@Luke:2:6 @ So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered.

nkjv@Luke:2:11 @ For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

nkjv@Luke:2:13 @ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:

nkjv@Luke:2:15 @ So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, "Let us now go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us."

nkjv@Luke:2:16 @ And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger.

nkjv@Luke:2:18 @ And all those who heard it marveled at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

nkjv@Luke:2:20 @ Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them.

nkjv@Luke:2:23 @ (as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the LORD"),

nkjv@Luke:2:25 @ And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and devout, waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

nkjv@Luke:2:26 @ And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

nkjv@Luke:2:27 @ So he came by the Spirit into the temple. And when the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the law,

nkjv@Luke:2:36 @ Now there was one, Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity;

nkjv@Luke:2:37 @ and this woman was a widow of about eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.

nkjv@Luke:2:39 @ So when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.

nkjv@Luke:2:40 @ And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him.

nkjv@Luke:2:43 @ When they had finished the days, as they returned, the Boy Jesus lingered behind in Jerusalem. And Joseph and His mother did not know it;

nkjv@Luke:2:46 @ Now so it was that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.

nkjv@Luke:2:51 @ Then He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them, but His mother kept all these things in her heart.

nkjv@Luke:2:52 @ And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.

nkjv@Luke:3:1 @ Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,

nkjv@Luke:3:4 @ as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight.

nkjv@Luke:3:7 @ Then he said to the multitudes that came out to be baptized by him, "Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

nkjv@Luke:3:8 @ Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, "We have Abraham as our father.' For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

nkjv@Luke:3:9 @ And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."

nkjv@Luke:3:14 @ Likewise the soldiers asked him, saying, "And what shall we do?" So he said to them, "Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages."

nkjv@Luke:3:16 @ John answered, saying to all, "I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

nkjv@Luke:3:17 @ His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather the wheat into His barn; but the chaff He will burn with unquenchable fire."

nkjv@Luke:3:18 @ And with many other exhortations he preached to the people.

nkjv@Luke:3:21 @ When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened.

nkjv@Luke:3:22 @ And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, "You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased."

nkjv@Luke:4:1 @ Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,

nkjv@Luke:4:4 @ But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God."'

nkjv@Luke:4:6 @ And the devil said to Him, "All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.

nkjv@Luke:4:8 @ And Jesus answered and said to him, "Get behind Me, Satan! For it is written, "You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve."'

nkjv@Luke:4:10 @ For it is written: "He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you,'

nkjv@Luke:4:12 @ And Jesus answered and said to him, "It has been said, "You shall not tempt the LORD your God."'

nkjv@Luke:4:14 @ Then Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news of Him went out through all the surrounding region.

nkjv@Luke:4:17 @ And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written:

nkjv@Luke:4:18 @ "The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed;

nkjv@Luke:4:20 @ Then He closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were fixed on Him.

nkjv@Luke:4:22 @ So all bore witness to Him, and marveled at the gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth. And they said, "Is this not Joseph's son?"

nkjv@Luke:4:28 @ So all those in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,

nkjv@Luke:4:29 @ and rose up and thrust Him out of the city; and they led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw Him down over the cliff.

nkjv@Luke:4:31 @ Then He went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the Sabbaths.

nkjv@Luke:4:32 @ And they were astonished at His teaching, for His word was with authority.

nkjv@Luke:4:33 @ Now in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon. And he cried out with a loud voice,

nkjv@Luke:4:34 @ saying, "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are--the Holy One of God!"

nkjv@Luke:4:35 @ But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him in their midst, it came out of him and did not hurt him.

nkjv@Luke:4:36 @ Then they were all amazed and spoke among themselves, saying, "What a word this is! For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out."

nkjv@Luke:4:38 @ Now He arose from the synagogue and entered Simon's house. But Simon's wife's mother was sick with a high fever, and they made request of Him concerning her.

nkjv@Luke:4:39 @ So He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. And immediately she arose and served them.

nkjv@Luke:4:40 @ When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and healed them.

nkjv@Luke:4:42 @ Now when it was day, He departed and went into a deserted place. And the crowd sought Him and came to Him, and tried to keep Him from leaving them;

nkjv@Luke:4:43 @ but He said to them, "I must preach the kingdom of God to the other cities also, because for this purpose I have been sent."

nkjv@Luke:5:1 @ So it was, as the multitude pressed about Him to hear the word of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret,

nkjv@Luke:5:3 @ Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.

nkjv@Luke:5:8 @ When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!"

nkjv@Luke:5:9 @ For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken;

nkjv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men."

nkjv@Luke:5:12 @ And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean."

nkjv@Luke:5:15 @ However, the report went around concerning Him all the more; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities.

nkjv@Luke:5:16 @ So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed.

nkjv@Luke:5:17 @ Now it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

nkjv@Luke:5:19 @ And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:5:20 @ When He saw their faith, He said to him, "Man, your sins are forgiven you."

nkjv@Luke:5:26 @ And they were all amazed, and they glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, "We have seen strange things today!"

nkjv@Luke:5:27 @ After these things He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me."

nkjv@Luke:5:29 @ Then Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And there were a great number of tax collectors and others who sat down with them.

nkjv@Luke:5:30 @ And their scribes and the Pharisees complained against His disciples, saying, "Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?"

nkjv@Luke:5:34 @ And He said to them, "Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them?

nkjv@Luke:6:1 @ Now it happened on the second Sabbath after the first that He went through the grainfields. And His disciples plucked the heads of grain and ate them, rubbing them in their hands.

nkjv@Luke:6:3 @ But Jesus answering them said, "Have you not even read this, what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him:

nkjv@Luke:6:4 @ how he went into the house of God, took and ate the showbread, and also gave some to those with him, which is not lawful for any but the priests to eat?"

nkjv@Luke:6:6 @ Now it happened on another Sabbath, also, that He entered the synagogue and taught. And a man was there whose right hand was withered.

nkjv@Luke:6:8 @ But He knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, "Arise and stand here." And he arose and stood.

nkjv@Luke:6:9 @ Then Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one thing: Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy?"

nkjv@Luke:6:11 @ But they were filled with rage, and discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:6:12 @ Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

nkjv@Luke:6:13 @ And when it was day, He called His disciples to Himself; and from them He chose twelve whom He also named apostles:

nkjv@Luke:6:16 @ Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot who also became a traitor.

nkjv@Luke:6:17 @ And He came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of His disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear Him and be healed of their diseases,

nkjv@Luke:6:18 @ as well as those who were tormented with unclean spirits. And they were healed.

nkjv@Luke:6:19 @ And the whole multitude sought to touch Him, for power went out from Him and healed them all.

nkjv@Luke:6:28 @ bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.

nkjv@Luke:6:29 @ To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either.

nkjv@Luke:6:32 @ "But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.

nkjv@Luke:6:33 @ And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

nkjv@Luke:6:34 @ And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back.

nkjv@Luke:6:38 @ Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you."

nkjv@Luke:6:39 @ And He spoke a parable to them: "Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch?

nkjv@Luke:6:42 @ Or how can you say to your brother, "Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother's eye.

nkjv@Luke:6:43 @ "For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.

nkjv@Luke:6:44 @ For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.

nkjv@Luke:6:48 @ He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock.

nkjv@Luke:6:49 @ But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great."

nkjv@Luke:7:3 @ So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant.

nkjv@Luke:7:6 @ Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.

nkjv@Luke:7:8 @ For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, "Go,' and he goes; and to another, "Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, "Do this,' and he does it."

nkjv@Luke:7:9 @ When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, "I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!"

nkjv@Luke:7:11 @ Now it happened, the day after, that He went into a city called Nain; and many of His disciples went with Him, and a large crowd.

nkjv@Luke:7:12 @ And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her.

nkjv@Luke:7:16 @ Then fear came upon all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has risen up among us"; and, "God has visited His people."

nkjv@Luke:7:21 @ And that very hour He cured many of infirmities, afflictions, and evil spirits; and to many blind He gave sight.

nkjv@Luke:7:24 @ When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

nkjv@Luke:7:27 @ This is he of whom it is written: "Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.'

nkjv@Luke:7:29 @ And when all the people heard Him, even the tax collectors justified God, having been baptized with the baptism of John.

nkjv@Luke:7:32 @ They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying: "We played the flute for you, And you did not dance; We mourned to you, And you did not weep.'

nkjv@Luke:7:33 @ For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, "He has a demon.'

nkjv@Luke:7:36 @ Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee's house, and sat down to eat.

nkjv@Luke:7:37 @ And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil,

nkjv@Luke:7:38 @ and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil.

nkjv@Luke:7:39 @ Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, "This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner."

nkjv@Luke:7:40 @ And Jesus answered and said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." So he said, "Teacher, say it."

nkjv@Luke:7:41 @ "There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

nkjv@Luke:7:42 @ And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?"

nkjv@Luke:7:44 @ Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.

nkjv@Luke:7:46 @ You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil.

nkjv@Luke:7:47 @ Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little."

nkjv@Luke:7:49 @ And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?"

nkjv@Luke:7:50 @ Then He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."

nkjv@Luke:8:1 @ Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him,

nkjv@Luke:8:2 @ and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities--Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons,

nkjv@Luke:8:4 @ And when a great multitude had gathered, and they had come to Him from every city, He spoke by a parable:

nkjv@Luke:8:5 @ "A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and it was trampled down, and the birds of the air devoured it.

nkjv@Luke:8:6 @ Some fell on rock; and as soon as it sprang up, it withered away because it lacked moisture.

nkjv@Luke:8:7 @ And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it.

nkjv@Luke:8:10 @ And He said, "To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest it is given in parables, that "Seeing they may not see, And hearing they may not understand.'

nkjv@Luke:8:13 @ But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away.

nkjv@Luke:8:14 @ Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

nkjv@Luke:8:15 @ But the ones that fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience.

nkjv@Luke:8:16 @ "No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a vessel or puts it under a bed, but sets it on a lampstand, that those who enter may see the light.

nkjv@Luke:8:20 @ And it was told Him by some, who said, "Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see You."

nkjv@Luke:8:21 @ But He answered and said to them, "My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it."

nkjv@Luke:8:22 @ Now it happened, on a certain day, that He got into a boat with His disciples. And He said to them, "Let us cross over to the other side of the lake." And they launched out.

nkjv@Luke:8:23 @ But as they sailed He fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy.

nkjv@Luke:8:25 @ But He said to them, "Where is your faith?" And they were afraid, and marveled, saying to one another, "Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!"

nkjv@Luke:8:26 @ Then they sailed to the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.

nkjv@Luke:8:27 @ And when He stepped out on the land, there met Him a certain man from the city who had demons for a long time. And he wore no clothes, nor did he live in a house but in the tombs.

nkjv@Luke:8:28 @ When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before Him, and with a loud voice said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me!"

nkjv@Luke:8:29 @ For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had often seized him, and he was kept under guard, bound with chains and shackles; and he broke the bonds and was driven by the demon into the wilderness.

nkjv@Luke:8:32 @ Now a herd of many swine was feeding there on the mountain. So they begged Him that He would permit them to enter them. And He permitted them.

nkjv@Luke:8:34 @ When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.

nkjv@Luke:8:35 @ Then they went out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

nkjv@Luke:8:36 @ They also who had seen it told them by what means he who had been demon-possessed was healed.

nkjv@Luke:8:37 @ Then the whole multitude of the surrounding region of the Gadarenes asked Him to depart from them, for they were seized with great fear. And He got into the boat and returned.

nkjv@Luke:8:38 @ Now the man from whom the demons had departed begged Him that he might be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

nkjv@Luke:8:39 @ "Return to your own house, and tell what great things God has done for you." And he went his way and proclaimed throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.

nkjv@Luke:8:40 @ So it was, when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed Him, for they were all waiting for Him.

nkjv@Luke:8:42 @ for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as He went, the multitudes thronged Him.

nkjv@Luke:8:45 @ And Jesus said, "Who touched Me?" When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, "Master, the multitudes throng and press You, and You say, "Who touched Me?"'

nkjv@Luke:8:48 @ And He said to her, "Daughter, be of good cheer; your faith has made you well. Go in peace."

nkjv@Luke:8:50 @ But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, saying, "Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be made well."

nkjv@Luke:8:51 @ When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, James, and John, and the father and mother of the girl.

nkjv@Luke:8:54 @ But He put them all outside, took her by the hand and called, saying, "Little girl, arise."

nkjv@Luke:8:55 @ Then her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He commanded that she be given something to eat.

nkjv@Luke:9:1 @ Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

nkjv@Luke:9:3 @ And He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece.

nkjv@Luke:9:5 @ And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them."

nkjv@Luke:9:7 @ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

nkjv@Luke:9:10 @ And the apostles, when they had returned, told Him all that they had done. Then He took them and went aside privately into a deserted place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.

nkjv@Luke:9:11 @ But when the multitudes knew it, they followed Him; and He received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of healing.

nkjv@Luke:9:12 @ When the day began to wear away, the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding towns and country, and lodge and get provisions; for we are in a deserted place here."

nkjv@Luke:9:14 @ For there were about five thousand men. Then He said to His disciples, "Make them sit down in groups of fifty."

nkjv@Luke:9:15 @ And they did so, and made them all sit down.

nkjv@Luke:9:16 @ Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.

nkjv@Luke:9:18 @ And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"

nkjv@Luke:9:24 @ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.

nkjv@Luke:9:25 @ For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroyed or lost?

nkjv@Luke:9:28 @ Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

nkjv@Luke:9:29 @ As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening.

nkjv@Luke:9:30 @ And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,

nkjv@Luke:9:32 @ But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; and when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men who stood with Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:33 @ Then it happened, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--not knowing what he said.

nkjv@Luke:9:37 @ Now it happened on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:38 @ Suddenly a man from the multitude cried out, saying, "Teacher, I implore You, look on my son, for he is my only child.

nkjv@Luke:9:39 @ And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out; it convulses him so that he foams at the mouth; and it departs from him with great difficulty, bruising him.

nkjv@Luke:9:40 @ So I implored Your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."

nkjv@Luke:9:41 @ Then Jesus answered and said, "O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here."

nkjv@Luke:9:42 @ And as he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father.

nkjv@Luke:9:45 @ But they did not understand this saying, and it was hidden from them so that they did not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask Him about this saying.

nkjv@Luke:9:47 @ And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a little child and set him by Him,

nkjv@Luke:9:48 @ and said to them, "Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great."

nkjv@Luke:9:49 @ Now John answered and said, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us."

nkjv@Luke:9:51 @ Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem,

nkjv@Luke:9:52 @ and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:55 @ But He turned and rebuked them, and said, "You do not know what manner of spirit you are of.

nkjv@Luke:9:57 @ Now it happened as they journeyed on the road, that someone said to Him, "Lord, I will follow You wherever You go."

nkjv@Luke:9:62 @ But Jesus said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Luke:10:1 @ After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.

nkjv@Luke:10:4 @ Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and greet no one along the road.

nkjv@Luke:10:6 @ And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you.

nkjv@Luke:10:8 @ Whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you.

nkjv@Luke:10:10 @ But whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,

nkjv@Luke:10:11 @ "The very dust of your city which clings to us we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.'

nkjv@Luke:10:12 @ But I say to you that it will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that city.

nkjv@Luke:10:13 @ "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

nkjv@Luke:10:14 @ But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you.

nkjv@Luke:10:17 @ Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name."

nkjv@Luke:10:19 @ Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

nkjv@Luke:10:20 @ Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven."

nkjv@Luke:10:21 @ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, "I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.

nkjv@Luke:10:24 @ for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and have not heard it."

nkjv@Luke:10:25 @ And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"

nkjv@Luke:10:26 @ He said to him, "What is written in the law? What is your reading of it?"

nkjv@Luke:10:27 @ So he answered and said, ""You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,' and "your neighbor as yourself."'

nkjv@Luke:10:32 @ Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side.

nkjv@Luke:10:33 @ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had compassion.

nkjv@Luke:10:38 @ Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.

nkjv@Luke:10:40 @ But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, "Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me."

nkjv@Luke:11:1 @ Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples."

nkjv@Luke:11:2 @ So He said to them, "When you pray, say: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

nkjv@Luke:11:7 @ and he will answer from within and say, "Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give to you'?

nkjv@Luke:11:9 @ "So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

nkjv@Luke:11:10 @ For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

nkjv@Luke:11:13 @ If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!"

nkjv@Luke:11:14 @ And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. So it was, when the demon had gone out, that the mute spoke; and the multitudes marveled.

nkjv@Luke:11:17 @ But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls.

nkjv@Luke:11:20 @ But if I cast out demons with the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.

nkjv@Luke:11:23 @ He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

nkjv@Luke:11:24 @ "When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, "I will return to my house from which I came.'

nkjv@Luke:11:25 @ And when he comes, he finds it swept and put in order.

nkjv@Luke:11:26 @ Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first."

nkjv@Luke:11:27 @ And it happened, as He spoke these things, that a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, "Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!"

nkjv@Luke:11:28 @ But He said, "More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!"

nkjv@Luke:11:29 @ And while the crowds were thickly gathered together, He began to say, "This is an evil generation. It seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet.

nkjv@Luke:11:30 @ For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation.

nkjv@Luke:11:31 @ The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.

nkjv@Luke:11:32 @ The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

nkjv@Luke:11:33 @ "No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.

nkjv@Luke:11:37 @ And as He spoke, a certain Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. So He went in and sat down to eat.

nkjv@Luke:11:38 @ When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that He had not first washed before dinner.

nkjv@Luke:11:42 @ "But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass by justice and the love of God. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.

nkjv@Luke:11:44 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like graves which are not seen, and the men who walk over them are not aware of them."

nkjv@Luke:11:46 @ And He said, "Woe to you also, lawyers! For you load men with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.

nkjv@Luke:11:48 @ In fact, you bear witness that you approve the deeds of your fathers; for they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs.

nkjv@Luke:12:1 @ In the meantime, when an innumerable multitude of people had gathered together, so that they trampled one another, He began to say to His disciples first of all, "Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

nkjv@Luke:12:10 @ "And anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven.

nkjv@Luke:12:11 @ "Now when they bring you to the synagogues and magistrates and authorities, do not worry about how or what you should answer, or what you should say.

nkjv@Luke:12:12 @ For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say."

nkjv@Luke:12:13 @ Then one from the crowd said to Him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me."

nkjv@Luke:12:14 @ But He said to him, "Man, who made Me a judge or an arbitrator over you?"

nkjv@Luke:12:17 @ And he thought within himself, saying, "What shall I do, since I have no room to store my crops?'

nkjv@Luke:12:24 @ Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds?

nkjv@Luke:12:25 @ And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

nkjv@Luke:12:27 @ Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

nkjv@Luke:12:28 @ If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?

nkjv@Luke:13:1 @ There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

nkjv@Luke:13:6 @ He also spoke this parable: "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none.

nkjv@Luke:13:7 @ Then he said to the keeper of his vineyard, "Look, for three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree and find none. Cut it down; why does it use up the ground?'

nkjv@Luke:13:8 @ But he answered and said to him, "Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.

nkjv@Luke:13:9 @ And if it bears fruit, well. But if not, after that you can cut it down."'

nkjv@Luke:13:11 @ And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up.

nkjv@Luke:13:12 @ But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, "Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity."

nkjv@Luke:13:14 @ But the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath; and he said to the crowd, "There are six days on which men ought to work; therefore come and be healed on them, and not on the Sabbath day."

nkjv@Luke:13:15 @ The Lord then answered him and said, "Hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it?

nkjv@Luke:13:16 @ So ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound--think of it--for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath?"

nkjv@Luke:13:17 @ And when He said these things, all His adversaries were put to shame; and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by Him.

nkjv@Luke:13:18 @ Then He said, "What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it?

nkjv@Luke:13:19 @ It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and put in his garden; and it grew and became a large tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches."

nkjv@Luke:13:21 @ It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened."

nkjv@Luke:13:22 @ And He went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:13:27 @ But He will say, "I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.'

nkjv@Luke:13:33 @ Nevertheless I must journey today, tomorrow, and the day following; for it cannot be that a prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:14:1 @ Now it happened, as He went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees to eat bread on the Sabbath, that they watched Him closely.

nkjv@Luke:14:3 @ And Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?"

nkjv@Luke:14:5 @ Then He answered them, saying, "Which of you, having a donkey or an ox that has fallen into a pit, will not immediately pull him out on the Sabbath day?"

nkjv@Luke:14:7 @ So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the best places, saying to them:

nkjv@Luke:14:8 @ "When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him;

nkjv@Luke:14:9 @ and he who invited you and him come and say to you, "Give place to this man,' and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place.

nkjv@Luke:14:10 @ But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, "Friend, go up higher.' Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you.

nkjv@Luke:14:12 @ Then He also said to him who invited Him, "When you give a dinner or a supper, do not ask your friends, your brothers, your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid.

nkjv@Luke:14:13 @ But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind.

nkjv@Luke:14:15 @ Now when one of those who sat at the table with Him heard these things, he said to Him, "Blessed is he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God!"

nkjv@Luke:14:16 @ Then He said to him, "A certain man gave a great supper and invited many,

nkjv@Luke:14:17 @ and sent his servant at supper time to say to those who were invited, "Come, for all things are now ready.'

nkjv@Luke:14:18 @ But they all with one accord began to make excuses. The first said to him, "I have bought a piece of ground, and I must go and see it. I ask you to have me excused.'

nkjv@Luke:14:21 @ So that servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, "Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind.'

nkjv@Luke:14:22 @ And the servant said, "Master, it is done as you commanded, and still there is room.'

nkjv@Luke:14:24 @ For I say to you that none of those men who were invited shall taste my supper."'

nkjv@Luke:14:25 @ Now great multitudes went with Him. And He turned and said to them,

nkjv@Luke:14:28 @ For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it--

nkjv@Luke:20:9 @ Then He began to tell the people this parable: "A certain man planted a vineyard, leased it to vinedressers, and went into a far country for a long time.

nkjv@Luke:20:10 @ Now at vintage-time he sent a servant to the vinedressers, that they might give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vinedressers beat him and sent him away empty-handed.

nkjv@Luke:20:16 @ He will come and destroy those vinedressers and give the vineyard to others." And when they heard it they said, "Certainly not!"

nkjv@Luke:20:18 @ Whoever falls on that stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder."

nkjv@Luke:20:21 @ Then they asked Him, saying, "Teacher, we know that You say and teach rightly, and You do not show personal favoritism, but teach the way of God in truth:

nkjv@Luke:20:22 @ Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

nkjv@Luke:20:35 @ But those who are counted worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;

nkjv@Luke:22:6 @ So he promised and sought opportunity to betray Him to them in the absence of the multitude.

nkjv@Luke:22:10 @ And He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters.

nkjv@Luke:22:11 @ Then you shall say to the master of the house, "The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"'

nkjv@Luke:22:13 @ So they went and found it just as He had said to them, and they prepared the Passover.

nkjv@Luke:22:14 @ When the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him.

nkjv@Luke:22:15 @ Then He said to them, "With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;

nkjv@Luke:22:22 @ And truly the Son of Man goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!"

nkjv@Luke:22:23 @ Then they began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.

nkjv@Luke:22:25 @ And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called "benefactors.'

nkjv@Luke:22:33 @ But he said to Him, "Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death."

nkjv@Luke:22:35 @ And He said to them, "When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?" So they said, "Nothing."

nkjv@Luke:22:36 @ Then He said to them, "But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.

nkjv@Luke:22:37 @ For I say to you that this which is written must still be accomplished in Me: "And He was numbered with the transgressors.' For the things concerning Me have an end."

nkjv@Luke:22:38 @ So they said, "Lord, look, here are two swords." And He said to them, "It is enough."

nkjv@Luke:22:41 @ And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and He knelt down and prayed,

nkjv@Luke:22:42 @ saying, "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done."

nkjv@Luke:22:47 @ And while He was still speaking, behold, a multitude; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:15 @ no, neither did Herod, for I sent you back to him; and indeed nothing deserving of death has been done by Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:26 @ Now as they led Him away, they laid hold of a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross that he might bear it after Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:23:27 @ And a great multitude of the people followed Him, and women who also mourned and lamented Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:32 @ There were also two others, criminals, led with Him to be put to death.

nkjv@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood looking on. But even the rulers with them sneered, saying, "He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ, the chosen of God."

nkjv@Luke:23:38 @ And an inscription also was written over Him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@Luke:23:55 @ And the women who had come with Him from Galilee followed after, and they observed the tomb and how His body was laid.

nkjv@Luke:24:1 @ Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

nkjv@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles.

nkjv@Luke:24:15 @ So it was, while they conversed and reasoned, that Jesus Himself drew near and went with them.

nkjv@Luke:24:17 @ And He said to them, "What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?"

nkjv@Luke:24:21 @ But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happened.

nkjv@Luke:24:29 @ But they constrained Him, saying, "Abide with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent." And He went in to stay with them.

nkjv@Luke:24:30 @ Now it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.

nkjv@Luke:24:32 @ And they said to one another, "Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?"

nkjv@Luke:24:33 @ So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

nkjv@Luke:24:37 @ But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit.

nkjv@Luke:24:39 @ Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have."

nkjv@Luke:24:44 @ Then He said to them, "These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me."

nkjv@Luke:24:46 @ Then He said to them, "Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

nkjv@John:1:15 @ John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, "This was He of whom I said, "He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me."'

nkjv@John:1:19 @ Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"

nkjv@John:1:26 @ John answered them, saying, "I baptize with water, but there stands One among you whom you do not know.

nkjv@John:1:27 @ It is He who, coming after me, is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose."

nkjv@John:1:31 @ I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water."

nkjv@John:1:32 @ And John bore witness, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him.

nkjv@John:1:33 @ I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, "Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'

nkjv@John:1:35 @ Again, the next day, John stood with two of his disciples.

nkjv@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where He was staying, and remained with Him that day (now it was about the tenth hour).

nkjv@John:1:44 @ Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

nkjv@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!"

nkjv@John:2:2 @ Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding.

nkjv@John:2:4 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come."

nkjv@John:2:5 @ His mother said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it."

nkjv@John:2:7 @ Jesus said to them, "Fill the waterpots with water." And they filled them up to the brim.

nkjv@John:2:8 @ And He said to them, "Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast." And they took it.

nkjv@John:2:9 @ When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.

nkjv@John:2:15 @ When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers' money and overturned the tables.

nkjv@John:2:17 @ Then His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for Your house has eaten Me up."

nkjv@John:2:19 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

nkjv@John:2:20 @ Then the Jews said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?"

nkjv@John:2:24 @ But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all men,

nkjv@John:3:2 @ This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him."

nkjv@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

nkjv@John:3:6 @ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

nkjv@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

nkjv@John:3:11 @ Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness.

nkjv@John:3:22 @ After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them and baptized.

nkjv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified--behold, He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!"

nkjv@John:3:27 @ John answered and said, "A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven.

nkjv@John:3:28 @ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, "I am not the Christ,' but, "I have been sent before Him.'

nkjv@John:3:34 @ For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

nkjv@John:4:5 @ So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

nkjv@John:4:6 @ Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

nkjv@John:4:8 @ For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

nkjv@John:4:9 @ Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, "How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

nkjv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered and said to her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, "Give Me a drink,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water."

nkjv@John:4:11 @ The woman said to Him, "Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water?

nkjv@John:4:12 @ Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?"

nkjv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

nkjv@John:4:23 @ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.

nkjv@John:4:24 @ God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

nkjv@John:4:27 @ And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why are You talking with her?"

nkjv@John:4:28 @ The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men,

nkjv@John:4:30 @ Then they went out of the city and came to Him.

nkjv@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, "There are still four months and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!

nkjv@John:4:36 @ And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

nkjv@John:4:39 @ And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, "He told me all that I ever did."

nkjv@John:4:40 @ So when the Samaritans had come to Him, they urged Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

nkjv@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." And he himself believed, and his whole household.

nkjv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water.

nkjv@John:5:5 @ Now a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years.

nkjv@John:5:6 @ When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, "Do you want to be made well?"

nkjv@John:5:10 @ The Jews therefore said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed."

nkjv@John:5:13 @ But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place.

nkjv@John:5:15 @ The man departed and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

nkjv@John:5:18 @ Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.

nkjv@John:5:22 @ For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son,

nkjv@John:5:27 @ and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.

nkjv@John:5:31 @ "If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true.

nkjv@John:5:32 @ There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness which He witnesses of Me is true.

nkjv@John:5:33 @ You have sent to John, and he has borne witness to the truth.

nkjv@John:5:36 @ But I have a greater witness than John's; for the works which the Father has given Me to finish--the very works that I do--bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me.

nkjv@John:5:37 @ And the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form.

nkjv@John:5:47 @ But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?"

nkjv@John:6:2 @ Then a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His signs which He performed on those who were diseased.

nkjv@John:6:3 @ And Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat with His disciples.

nkjv@John:6:5 @ Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?"

nkjv@John:6:7 @ Philip answered Him, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may have a little."

nkjv@John:6:10 @ Then Jesus said, "Make the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

nkjv@John:6:11 @ And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted.

nkjv@John:6:13 @ Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

nkjv@John:6:17 @ got into the boat, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was already dark, and Jesus had not come to them.

nkjv@John:6:20 @ But He said to them, "It is I; do not be afraid."

nkjv@John:6:22 @ On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except that one which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone--

nkjv@John:6:30 @ Therefore they said to Him, "What sign will You perform then, that we may see it and believe You? What work will You do?

nkjv@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written, "He gave them bread from heaven to eat."'

nkjv@John:6:39 @ This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

nkjv@John:6:42 @ And they said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, "I have come down from heaven'?"

nkjv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, "And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.

nkjv@John:6:50 @ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die.

nkjv@John:6:60 @ Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, "This is a hard saying; who can understand it?"

nkjv@John:6:63 @ It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

nkjv@John:6:65 @ And He said, "Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father."

nkjv@John:6:66 @ From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more.

nkjv@John:6:71 @ He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who would betray Him, being one of the twelve.

nkjv@John:7:7 @ The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it that its works are evil.

nkjv@John:7:10 @ But when His brothers had gone up, then He also went up to the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

nkjv@John:7:17 @ If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.

nkjv@John:7:22 @ Moses therefore gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

nkjv@John:7:23 @ If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

nkjv@John:7:24 @ Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."

nkjv@John:7:33 @ Then Jesus said to them, "I shall be with you a little while longer, and then I go to Him who sent Me.

nkjv@John:7:39 @ But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

nkjv@John:7:51 @ "Does our law judge a man before it hears him and knows what he is doing?"

nkjv@John:8:6 @ This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear.

nkjv@John:8:7 @ So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first."

nkjv@John:8:9 @ Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

nkjv@John:8:11 @ She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more."

nkjv@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees therefore said to Him, "You bear witness of Yourself; Your witness is not true."

nkjv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going.

nkjv@John:8:16 @ And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me.

nkjv@John:8:17 @ It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true.

nkjv@John:8:18 @ I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me."

nkjv@John:8:19 @ Then they said to Him, "Where is Your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also."

nkjv@John:8:29 @ And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him."

nkjv@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin.

nkjv@John:8:38 @ I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with your father."

nkjv@John:8:44 @ You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

nkjv@John:8:48 @ Then the Jews answered and said to Him, "Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?"

nkjv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, "If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your God.

nkjv@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."

nkjv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him.

nkjv@John:9:4 @ I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.

nkjv@John:9:6 @ When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

nkjv@John:9:14 @ Now it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

nkjv@John:9:27 @ He answered them, "I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?"

nkjv@John:9:32 @ Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

nkjv@John:9:37 @ And Jesus said to him, "You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you."

nkjv@John:9:40 @ Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, "Are we blind also?"

nkjv@John:10:10 @ The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

nkjv@John:10:17 @ "Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again.

nkjv@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from My Father."

nkjv@John:10:22 @ Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter.

nkjv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me.

nkjv@John:10:28 @ And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

nkjv@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, "I said, "You are gods"'?

nkjv@John:11:2 @ It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

nkjv@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard that, He said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it."

nkjv@John:11:16 @ Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with Him."

nkjv@John:11:20 @ Now Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house.

nkjv@John:11:31 @ Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, "She is going to the tomb to weep there."

nkjv@John:11:33 @ Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled.

nkjv@John:11:38 @ Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it.

nkjv@John:11:43 @ Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth!"

nkjv@John:11:44 @ And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go."

nkjv@John:11:50 @ nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish."

nkjv@John:11:51 @ Now this he did not say on his own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,

nkjv@John:11:54 @ Therefore Jesus no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there remained with His disciples.

nkjv@John:11:57 @ Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if anyone knew where He was, he should report it, that they might seize Him.

nkjv@John:12:2 @ There they made Him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Him.

nkjv@John:12:3 @ Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.

nkjv@John:12:6 @ This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the money box; and he used to take what was put in it.

nkjv@John:12:8 @ For the poor you have with you always, but Me you do not have always."

nkjv@John:12:12 @ The next day a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

nkjv@John:12:14 @ Then Jesus, when He had found a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written:

nkjv@John:12:15 @ "Fear not, daughter of Zion; Behold, your King is coming, Sitting on a donkey's colt."

nkjv@John:12:16 @ His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about Him and that they had done these things to Him.

nkjv@John:12:17 @ Therefore the people, who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of his tomb and raised him from the dead, bore witness.

nkjv@John:12:24 @ Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.

nkjv@John:12:25 @ He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

nkjv@John:12:28 @ Father, glorify Your name." Then a voice came from heaven, saying, "I have both glorified it and will glorify it again."

nkjv@John:12:29 @ Therefore the people who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to Him."

nkjv@John:12:35 @ Then Jesus said to them, "A little while longer the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you; he who walks in darkness does not know where he is going.

nkjv@John:12:40 @ "He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, Lest they should see with their eyes, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them."

nkjv@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak.

nkjv@John:13:2 @ And supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him,

nkjv@John:13:5 @ After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.

nkjv@John:13:8 @ Peter said to Him, "You shall never wash my feet!" Jesus answered him, "If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me."

nkjv@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said these things, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, "Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray Me."

nkjv@John:13:24 @ Simon Peter therefore motioned to him to ask who it was of whom He spoke.

nkjv@John:13:25 @ Then, leaning back on Jesus' breast, he said to Him, "Lord, who is it?"

nkjv@John:13:26 @ Jesus answered, "It is he to whom I shall give a piece of bread when I have dipped it." And having dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

nkjv@John:13:30 @ Having received the piece of bread, he then went out immediately. And it was night.

nkjv@John:13:33 @ Little children, I shall be with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, "Where I am going, you cannot come,' so now I say to you.

nkjv@John:16:4 @ But these things I have told you, that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them. "And these things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.

nkjv@John:16:7 @ Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.

nkjv@John:16:13 @ However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.

nkjv@John:18:1 @ When Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciples over the Brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which He and His disciples entered.

nkjv@John:18:2 @ And Judas, who betrayed Him, also knew the place; for Jesus often met there with His disciples.

nkjv@John:18:3 @ Then Judas, having received a detachment of troops, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

nkjv@John:18:5 @ They answered Him, "Jesus of Nazareth." Jesus said to them, "I am He." And Judas, who betrayed Him, also stood with them.

nkjv@John:18:10 @ Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

nkjv@John:18:14 @ Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

nkjv@John:18:15 @ And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.

nkjv@John:18:18 @ Now the servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, for it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself.

nkjv@John:18:22 @ And when He had said these things, one of the officers who stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, "Do You answer the high priest like that?"

nkjv@John:18:23 @ Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why do you strike Me?"

nkjv@John:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. Therefore they said to him, "You are not also one of His disciples, are you?" He denied it and said, "I am not!"

nkjv@John:18:26 @ One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of him whose ear Peter cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with Him?"

nkjv@John:18:28 @ Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they themselves did not go into the Praetorium, lest they should be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.

nkjv@John:18:31 @ Then Pilate said to them, "You take Him and judge Him according to your law." Therefore the Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,"

nkjv@John:18:37 @ Pilate therefore said to Him, "Are You a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice."

nkjv@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head, and they put on Him a purple robe.

nkjv@John:19:3 @ Then they said, "Hail, King of the Jews!" And they struck Him with their hands.

nkjv@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered, "You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered Me to you has the greater sin."

nkjv@John:19:14 @ Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, and about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

nkjv@John:19:15 @ But they cried out, "Away with Him, away with Him! Crucify Him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!"

nkjv@John:19:18 @ where they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the center.

nkjv@John:19:19 @ Now Pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@John:19:20 @ Then many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.

nkjv@John:19:21 @ Therefore the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write, "The King of the Jews,' but, "He said, "I am the King of the Jews.""'

nkjv@John:19:22 @ Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have written."

nkjv@John:19:23 @ Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.

nkjv@John:19:24 @ They said therefore among themselves, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says: "They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots." Therefore the soldiers did these things.

nkjv@John:19:29 @ Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth.

nkjv@John:19:30 @ So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!" And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.

nkjv@John:19:31 @ Therefore, because it was the Preparation Day, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

nkjv@John:19:32 @ Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Him.

nkjv@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

nkjv@John:19:40 @ Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in strips of linen with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.

nkjv@John:20:1 @ Now the first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

nkjv@John:20:14 @ Now when she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus.

nkjv@John:20:19 @ Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, "Peace be with you."

nkjv@John:20:22 @ And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@John:20:24 @ Now Thomas, called the Twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came.

nkjv@John:20:26 @ And after eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace to you!"

nkjv@John:20:27 @ Then He said to Thomas, "Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing."

nkjv@John:20:30 @ And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book;

nkjv@John:20:31 @ but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

nkjv@John:21:3 @ Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We are going with you also." They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing.

nkjv@John:21:4 @ But when the morning had now come, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

nkjv@John:21:6 @ And He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast, and now they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish.

nkjv@John:21:7 @ Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had removed it), and plunged into the sea.

nkjv@John:21:8 @ But the other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from land, but about two hundred cubits), dragging the net with fish.

nkjv@John:21:9 @ Then, as soon as they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread.

nkjv@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, "Come and eat breakfast." Yet none of the disciples dared ask Him, "Who are You?"--knowing that it was the Lord.

nkjv@John:21:13 @ Jesus then came and took the bread and gave it to them, and likewise the fish.

nkjv@John:21:25 @ And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.

nkjv@Acts:8:18 @ And when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,

nkjv@Acts:8:19 @ saying, "Give me this power also, that anyone on whom I lay hands may receive the Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Acts:8:20 @ But Peter said to him, "Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money!

nkjv@Acts:8:21 @ You have neither part nor portion in this matter, for your heart is not right in the sight of God.

nkjv@Acts:8:23 @ For I see that you are poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity."

nkjv@Acts:8:25 @ So when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.

nkjv@Acts:8:27 @ So he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasury, and had come to Jerusalem to worship,

nkjv@Acts:8:28 @ was returning. And sitting in his chariot, he was reading Isaiah the prophet.

nkjv@Acts:8:29 @ Then the Spirit said to Philip, "Go near and overtake this chariot."

nkjv@Acts:8:31 @ And he said, "How can I, unless someone guides me?" And he asked Philip to come up and sit with him.

nkjv@Acts:8:32 @ The place in the Scripture which he read was this: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; And as a lamb before its shearer is silent, So He opened not His mouth.

nkjv@Acts:8:37 @ Then Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."

nkjv@Acts:8:39 @ Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing.

nkjv@Acts:8:40 @ But Philip was found at Azotus. And passing through, he preached in all the cities till he came to Caesarea.

nkjv@Acts:9:5 @ And he said, "Who are You, Lord?" Then the Lord said, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads."

nkjv@Acts:9:6 @ So he, trembling and astonished, said, "Lord, what do You want me to do?" Then the Lord said to him, "Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do."

nkjv@Acts:9:7 @ And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice but seeing no one.

nkjv@Acts:9:9 @ And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank.

nkjv@Acts:9:14 @ And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on Your name."

nkjv@Acts:9:17 @ And Ananias went his way and entered the house; and laying his hands on him he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Acts:9:19 @ So when he had received food, he was strengthened. Then Saul spent some days with the disciples at Damascus.

nkjv@Acts:9:28 @ So he was with them at Jerusalem, coming in and going out.

nkjv@Acts:9:31 @ Then the churches throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were edified. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied.

nkjv@Acts:9:32 @ Now it came to pass, as Peter went through all parts of the country, that he also came down to the saints who dwelt in Lydda.

nkjv@Acts:9:36 @ At Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which is translated Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and charitable deeds which she did.

nkjv@Acts:9:37 @ But it happened in those days that she became sick and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.

nkjv@Acts:9:39 @ Then Peter arose and went with them. When he had come, they brought him to the upper room. And all the widows stood by him weeping, showing the tunics and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.

nkjv@Acts:9:40 @ But Peter put them all out, and knelt down and prayed. And turning to the body he said, "Tabitha, arise." And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter she sat up.

nkjv@Acts:9:42 @ And it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed on the Lord.

nkjv@Acts:9:43 @ So it was that he stayed many days in Joppa with Simon, a tanner.

nkjv@Acts:10:1 @ There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,

nkjv@Acts:10:2 @ a devout man and one who feared God with all his household, who gave alms generously to the people, and prayed to God always.

nkjv@Acts:10:4 @ And when he observed him, he was afraid, and said, "What is it, lord?" So he said to him, "Your prayers and your alms have come up for a memorial before God.

nkjv@Acts:10:6 @ He is lodging with Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the sea. He will tell you what you must do."

nkjv@Acts:10:7 @ And when the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier from among those who waited on him continually.

nkjv@Acts:10:9 @ The next day, as they went on their journey and drew near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour.

nkjv@Acts:10:12 @ In it were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.

nkjv@Acts:10:17 @ Now while Peter wondered within himself what this vision which he had seen meant, behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate.

nkjv@Acts:10:19 @ While Peter thought about the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men are seeking you.

nkjv@Acts:10:20 @ Arise therefore, go down and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them."

nkjv@Acts:10:23 @ Then he invited them in and lodged them. On the next day Peter went away with them, and some brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

nkjv@Acts:10:24 @ And the following day they entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them, and had called together his relatives and close friends.

nkjv@Acts:10:27 @ And as he talked with him, he went in and found many who had come together.

nkjv@Acts:10:28 @ Then he said to them, "You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

nkjv@Acts:10:29 @ Therefore I came without objection as soon as I was sent for. I ask, then, for what reason have you sent for me?"

nkjv@Acts:10:34 @ Then Peter opened his mouth and said: "In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.

nkjv@Acts:10:38 @ how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.

nkjv@Acts:10:39 @ And we are witnesses of all things which He did both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed by hanging on a tree.

nkjv@Acts:10:41 @ not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us who ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead.

nkjv@Acts:10:42 @ And He commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is He who was ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the dead.

nkjv@Acts:10:43 @ To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins."

nkjv@Acts:10:44 @ While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.

nkjv@Acts:10:45 @ And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also.

nkjv@Acts:10:46 @ For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered,

nkjv@Acts:10:47 @ "Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?"

nkjv@Acts:11:2 @ And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him,

nkjv@Acts:11:3 @ saying, "You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!"

nkjv@Acts:11:4 @ But Peter explained it to them in order from the beginning, saying:

nkjv@Acts:11:5 @ "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came to me.

nkjv@Acts:11:6 @ When I observed it intently and considered, I saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.

nkjv@Acts:11:12 @ Then the Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered the man's house.

nkjv@Acts:11:15 @ And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning.

nkjv@Acts:11:16 @ Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, "John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'

nkjv@Acts:11:17 @ If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?"

nkjv@Acts:11:21 @ And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.

nkjv@Acts:11:23 @ When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord.

nkjv@Acts:11:24 @ For he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord.

nkjv@Acts:11:26 @ And when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.

nkjv@Acts:11:28 @ Then one of them, named Agabus, stood up and showed by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine throughout all the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius Caesar.

nkjv@Acts:11:29 @ Then the disciples, each according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren dwelling in Judea.

nkjv@Acts:11:30 @ This they also did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

nkjv@Acts:12:2 @ Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

nkjv@Acts:12:3 @ And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. Now it was during the Days of Unleavened Bread.

nkjv@Acts:12:6 @ And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were keeping the prison.

nkjv@Acts:12:10 @ When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.

nkjv@Acts:12:15 @ But they said to her, "You are beside yourself!" Yet she kept insisting that it was so. So they said, "It is his angel."

nkjv@Acts:12:17 @ But motioning to them with his hand to keep silent, he declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Go, tell these things to James and to the brethren." And he departed and went to another place.

nkjv@Acts:12:18 @ Then, as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.

nkjv@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod had been very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; but they came to him with one accord, and having made Blastus the king's personal aide their friend, they asked for peace, because their country was supplied with food by the king's country.

nkjv@Acts:12:25 @ And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their ministry, and they also took with them John whose surname was Mark.

nkjv@Acts:13:1 @ Now in the church that was at Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

nkjv@Acts:13:2 @ As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, "Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them."

nkjv@Acts:13:4 @ So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus.

nkjv@Acts:13:7 @ who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. This man called for Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God.

nkjv@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the sorcerer (for so his name is translated) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

nkjv@Acts:13:9 @ Then Saul, who also is called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him

nkjv@Acts:13:10 @ and said, "O full of all deceit and all fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease perverting the straight ways of the Lord?

nkjv@Acts:13:16 @ Then Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said, "Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen:

nkjv@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm He brought them out of it.

nkjv@Acts:13:18 @ Now for a time of about forty years He put up with their ways in the wilderness.

nkjv@Acts:13:29 @ Now when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning Him, they took Him down from the tree and laid Him in a tomb.

nkjv@Acts:13:31 @ He was seen for many days by those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are His witnesses to the people.

nkjv@Acts:13:33 @ God has fulfilled this for us their children, in that He has raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second Psalm: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You.'

nkjv@Acts:13:36 @ "For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and saw corruption;

nkjv@Acts:13:38 @ Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins;

nkjv@Acts:13:41 @ "Behold, you despisers, Marvel and perish! For I work a work in your days, A work which you will by no means believe, Though one were to declare it to you."'

nkjv@Acts:13:44 @ On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.

nkjv@Acts:13:45 @ But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy; and contradicting and blaspheming, they opposed the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:13:46 @ Then Paul and Barnabas grew bold and said, "It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken to you first; but since you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews stirred up the devout and prominent women and the chief men of the city, raised up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their region.

nkjv@Acts:13:52 @ And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Acts:14:1 @ Now it happened in Iconium that they went together to the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of the Jews and of the Greeks believed.

nkjv@Acts:14:3 @ Therefore they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who was bearing witness to the word of His grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

nkjv@Acts:14:4 @ But the multitude of the city was divided: part sided with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

nkjv@Acts:14:5 @ And when a violent attempt was made by both the Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to abuse and stone them,

nkjv@Acts:14:6 @ they became aware of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding region.

nkjv@Acts:14:8 @ And in Lystra a certain man without strength in his feet was sitting, a cripple from his mother's womb, who had never walked.

nkjv@Acts:14:9 @ This man heard Paul speaking. Paul, observing him intently and seeing that he had faith to be healed,

nkjv@Acts:14:10 @ said with a loud voice, "Stand up straight on your feet!" And he leaped and walked.

nkjv@Acts:14:13 @ Then the priest of Zeus, whose temple was in front of their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, intending to sacrifice with the multitudes.

nkjv@Acts:14:14 @ But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard this, they tore their clothes and ran in among the multitude, crying out

nkjv@Acts:14:15 @ and saying, "Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men with the same nature as you, and preach to you that you should turn from these useless things to the living God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all things that are in them,

nkjv@Acts:14:17 @ Nevertheless He did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, gave us rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

nkjv@Acts:14:18 @ And with these sayings they could scarcely restrain the multitudes from sacrificing to them.

nkjv@Acts:14:19 @ Then Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there; and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

nkjv@Acts:14:20 @ However, when the disciples gathered around him, he rose up and went into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

nkjv@Acts:14:21 @ And when they had preached the gospel to that city and made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,

nkjv@Acts:14:22 @ strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying, "We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Acts:14:23 @ So when they had appointed elders in every church, and prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

nkjv@Acts:14:27 @ Now when they had come and gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done with them, and that He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Acts:14:28 @ So they stayed there a long time with the disciples.

nkjv@Acts:15:2 @ Therefore, when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and dispute with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them should go up to Jerusalem, to the apostles and elders, about this question.

nkjv@Acts:15:4 @ And when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the church and the apostles and the elders; and they reported all things that God had done with them.

nkjv@Acts:15:5 @ But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, "It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses."

nkjv@Acts:15:8 @ So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us,

nkjv@Acts:15:9 @ and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

nkjv@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

nkjv@Acts:15:12 @ Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles.

nkjv@Acts:15:14 @ Simon has declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles to take out of them a people for His name.

nkjv@Acts:15:15 @ And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written:

nkjv@Acts:15:16 @ 'After this I will return And will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down; I will rebuild its ruins, And I will set it up;

nkjv@Acts:15:18 @ "Known to God from eternity are all His works.

nkjv@Acts:15:20 @ but that we write to them to abstain from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from things strangled, and from blood.

nkjv@Acts:15:21 @ For Moses has had throughout many generations those who preach him in every city, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath."

nkjv@Acts:15:22 @ Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas, namely, Judas who was also named Barsabas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren.

nkjv@Acts:15:24 @ Since we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, "You must be circumcised and keep the law" --to whom we gave no such commandment--

nkjv@Acts:15:25 @ it seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

nkjv@Acts:15:28 @ For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:

nkjv@Acts:15:29 @ that you abstain from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.

nkjv@Acts:15:30 @ So when they were sent off, they came to Antioch; and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter.

nkjv@Acts:15:31 @ When they had read it, they rejoiced over its encouragement.

nkjv@Acts:15:32 @ Now Judas and Silas, themselves being prophets also, exhorted and strengthened the brethren with many words.

nkjv@Acts:15:33 @ And after they had stayed there for a time, they were sent back with greetings from the brethren to the apostles.

nkjv@Acts:15:34 @ However, it seemed good to Silas to remain there.

nkjv@Acts:15:35 @ Paul and Barnabas also remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.

nkjv@Acts:15:36 @ Then after some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Let us now go back and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they are doing."

nkjv@Acts:15:37 @ Now Barnabas was determined to take with them John called Mark.

nkjv@Acts:15:38 @ But Paul insisted that they should not take with them the one who had departed from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work.

nkjv@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted to have him go on with him. And he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in that region, for they all knew that his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:4 @ And as they went through the cities, they delivered to them the decrees to keep, which were determined by the apostles and elders at Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:16:5 @ So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.

nkjv@Acts:16:6 @ Now when they had gone through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to preach the word in Asia.

nkjv@Acts:16:7 @ After they had come to Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit did not permit them.

nkjv@Acts:16:9 @ And a vision appeared to Paul in the night. A man of Macedonia stood and pleaded with him, saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us."

nkjv@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philippi, which is the foremost city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city for some days.

nkjv@Acts:16:13 @ And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there.

nkjv@Acts:16:14 @ Now a certain woman named Lydia heard us. She was a seller of purple from the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God. The Lord opened her heart to heed the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:16:15 @ And when she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." So she persuaded us.

nkjv@Acts:16:16 @ Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling.

nkjv@Acts:16:18 @ And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And he came out that very hour.

nkjv@Acts:16:19 @ But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace to the authorities.

nkjv@Acts:16:20 @ And they brought them to the magistrates, and said, "These men, being Jews, exceedingly trouble our city;

nkjv@Acts:16:22 @ Then the multitude rose up together against them; and the magistrates tore off their clothes and commanded them to be beaten with rods.

nkjv@Acts:16:28 @ But Paul called with a loud voice, saying, "Do yourself no harm, for we are all here."

nkjv@Acts:16:34 @ Now when he had brought them into his house, he set food before them; and he rejoiced, having believed in God with all his household.

nkjv@Acts:16:35 @ And when it was day, the magistrates sent the officers, saying, "Let those men go."

nkjv@Acts:16:39 @ Then they came and pleaded with them and brought them out, and asked them to depart from the city.

nkjv@Acts:17:2 @ Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

nkjv@Acts:17:4 @ And some of them were persuaded; and a great multitude of the devout Greeks, and not a few of the leading women, joined Paul and Silas.

nkjv@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews who were not persuaded, becoming envious, took some of the evil men from the marketplace, and gathering a mob, set all the city in an uproar and attacked the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.

nkjv@Acts:17:6 @ But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some brethren to the rulers of the city, crying out, "These who have turned the world upside down have come here too.

nkjv@Acts:17:8 @ And they troubled the crowd and the rulers of the city when they heard these things.

nkjv@Acts:17:9 @ So when they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

nkjv@Acts:17:11 @ These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.

nkjv@Acts:17:15 @ So those who conducted Paul brought him to Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him with all speed, they departed.

nkjv@Acts:17:16 @ Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him when he saw that the city was given over to idols.

nkjv@Acts:17:17 @ Therefore he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and with the Gentile worshipers, and in the marketplace daily with those who happened to be there.

nkjv@Acts:17:21 @ For all the Athenians and the foreigners who were there spent their time in nothing else but either to tell or to hear some new thing.

nkjv@Acts:17:23 @ for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you:

nkjv@Acts:17:24 @ God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.

nkjv@Acts:17:25 @ Nor is He worshiped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things.

nkjv@Acts:17:34 @ However, some men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

nkjv@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla (because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome); and he came to them.

nkjv@Acts:18:3 @ So, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked; for by occupation they were tentmakers.

nkjv@Acts:18:5 @ When Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.

nkjv@Acts:18:8 @ Then Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his household. And many of the Corinthians, hearing, believed and were baptized.

nkjv@Acts:18:10 @ for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city."

nkjv@Acts:18:12 @ When Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him to the judgment seat,

nkjv@Acts:18:14 @ And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or wicked crimes, O Jews, there would be reason why I should bear with you.

nkjv@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a question of words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves; for I do not want to be a judge of such matters."

nkjv@Acts:18:18 @ So Paul still remained a good while. Then he took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and Priscilla and Aquila were with him. He had his hair cut off at Cenchrea, for he had taken a vow.

nkjv@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left them there; but he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:18:20 @ When they asked him to stay a longer time with them, he did not consent,

nkjv@Acts:18:25 @ This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things of the Lord, though he knew only the baptism of John.

nkjv@Acts:19:1 @ And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples

nkjv@Acts:19:2 @ he said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" So they said to him, "We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Acts:19:4 @ Then Paul said, "John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:19:6 @ And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

nkjv@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were hardened and did not believe, but spoke evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and withdrew the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.

nkjv@Acts:19:12 @ so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them.

nkjv@Acts:19:13 @ Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches."

nkjv@Acts:19:15 @ And the evil spirit answered and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?"

nkjv@Acts:19:16 @ Then the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

nkjv@Acts:19:19 @ Also, many of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of silver.

nkjv@Acts:19:21 @ When these things were accomplished, Paul purposed in the Spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

nkjv@Acts:19:24 @ For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, brought no small profit to the craftsmen.

nkjv@Acts:19:25 @ He called them together with the workers of similar occupation, and said: "Men, you know that we have our prosperity by this trade.

nkjv@Acts:19:26 @ Moreover you see and hear that not only at Ephesus, but throughout almost all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are not gods which are made with hands.

nkjv@Acts:19:29 @ So the whole city was filled with confusion, and rushed into the theater with one accord, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul's travel companions.

nkjv@Acts:19:33 @ And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander motioned with his hand, and wanted to make his defense to the people.

nkjv@Acts:19:34 @ But when they found out that he was a Jew, all with one voice cried out for about two hours, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians!"

nkjv@Acts:19:35 @ And when the city clerk had quieted the crowd, he said: "Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple guardian of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?

nkjv@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought these men here who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess.

nkjv@Acts:19:39 @ But if you have any other inquiry to make, it shall be determined in the lawful assembly.

nkjv@Acts:20:2 @ Now when he had gone over that region and encouraged them with many words, he came to Greece

nkjv@Acts:20:5 @ These men, going ahead, waited for us at Troas.

nkjv@Acts:20:12 @ And they brought the young man in alive, and they were not a little comforted.

nkjv@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mitylene.

nkjv@Acts:20:15 @ We sailed from there, and the next day came opposite Chios. The following day we arrived at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium. The next day we came to Miletus.

nkjv@Acts:20:19 @ serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears and trials which happened to me by the plotting of the Jews;

nkjv@Acts:20:20 @ how I kept back nothing that was helpful, but proclaimed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house,

nkjv@Acts:20:22 @ And see, now I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there,

nkjv@Acts:20:23 @ except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me.

nkjv@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

nkjv@Acts:20:28 @ Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.

nkjv@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

nkjv@Acts:20:32 @ "So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

nkjv@Acts:20:34 @ Yes, you yourselves know that these hands have provided for my necessities, and for those who were with me.

nkjv@Acts:20:35 @ I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive."'

nkjv@Acts:20:36 @ And when he had said these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.

nkjv@Acts:21:1 @ Now it came to pass, that when we had departed from them and set sail, running a straight course we came to Cos, the following day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.

nkjv@Acts:21:3 @ When we had sighted Cyprus, we passed it on the left, sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her cargo.

nkjv@Acts:21:4 @ And finding disciples, we stayed there seven days. They told Paul through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:21:5 @ When we had come to the end of those days, we departed and went on our way; and they all accompanied us, with wives and children, till we were out of the city. And we knelt down on the shore and prayed.

nkjv@Acts:21:7 @ And when we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, greeted the brethren, and stayed with them one day.

nkjv@Acts:21:8 @ On the next day we who were Paul's companions departed and came to Caesarea, and entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.

nkjv@Acts:21:11 @ When he had come to us, he took Paul's belt, bound his own hands and feet, and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, "So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man who owns this belt, and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles."'

nkjv@Acts:21:12 @ Now when we heard these things, both we and those from that place pleaded with him not to go up to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:21:16 @ Also some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us and brought with them a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we were to lodge.

nkjv@Acts:21:18 @ On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.

nkjv@Acts:21:20 @ And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, "You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law;

nkjv@Acts:21:24 @ Take them and be purified with them, and pay their expenses so that they may shave their heads, and that all may know that those things of which they were informed concerning you are nothing, but that you yourself also walk orderly and keep the law.

nkjv@Acts:21:25 @ But concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written and decided that they should observe no such thing, except that they should keep themselves from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality."

nkjv@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul took the men, and the next day, having been purified with them, entered the temple to announce the expiration of the days of purification, at which time an offering should be made for each one of them.

nkjv@Acts:21:29 @ (For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)

nkjv@Acts:21:30 @ And all the city was disturbed; and the people ran together, seized Paul, and dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were shut.

nkjv@Acts:21:33 @ Then the commander came near and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and he asked who he was and what he had done.

nkjv@Acts:21:34 @ And some among the multitude cried one thing and some another. So when he could not ascertain the truth because of the tumult, he commanded him to be taken into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:21:36 @ For the multitude of the people followed after, crying out, "Away with him!"

nkjv@Acts:21:39 @ But Paul said, "I am a Jew from Tarsus, in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city; and I implore you, permit me to speak to the people."

nkjv@Acts:21:40 @ So when he had given him permission, Paul stood on the stairs and motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, saying,

nkjv@Acts:22:3 @ "I am indeed a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the strictness of our fathers' law, and was zealous toward God as you all are today.

nkjv@Acts:22:5 @ as also the high priest bears me witness, and all the council of the elders, from whom I also received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus to bring in chains even those who were there to Jerusalem to be punished.

nkjv@Acts:22:6 @ "Now it happened, as I journeyed and came near Damascus at about noon, suddenly a great light from heaven shone around me.

nkjv@Acts:22:9 @ "And those who were with me indeed saw the light and were afraid, but they did not hear the voice of Him who spoke to me.

nkjv@Acts:22:11 @ And since I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came into Damascus.

nkjv@Acts:22:12 @ "Then a certain Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good testimony with all the Jews who dwelt there,

nkjv@Acts:22:15 @ For you will be His witness to all men of what you have seen and heard.

nkjv@Acts:22:16 @ And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.'

nkjv@Acts:22:17 @ "Now it happened, when I returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, that I was in a trance

nkjv@Acts:22:22 @ And they listened to him until this word, and then they raised their voices and said, "Away with such a fellow from the earth, for he is not fit to live!"

nkjv@Acts:22:25 @ And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion who stood by, "Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and uncondemned?"

nkjv@Acts:22:28 @ The commander answered, "With a large sum I obtained this citizenship." And Paul said, "But I was born a citizen."

nkjv@Acts:22:29 @ Then immediately those who were about to examine him withdrew from him; and the commander was also afraid after he found out that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.

nkjv@Acts:23:3 @ Then Paul said to him, "God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! For you sit to judge me according to the law, and do you command me to be struck contrary to the law?"

nkjv@Acts:23:5 @ Then Paul said, "I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, "You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people."'

nkjv@Acts:23:8 @ For Sadducees say that there is no resurrection--and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.

nkjv@Acts:23:9 @ Then there arose a loud outcry. And the scribes of the Pharisees' party arose and protested, saying, "We find no evil in this man; but if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God."

nkjv@Acts:23:11 @ But the following night the Lord stood by him and said, "Be of good cheer, Paul; for as you have testified for Me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness at Rome."

nkjv@Acts:23:12 @ And when it was day, some of the Jews banded together and bound themselves under an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.

nkjv@Acts:23:15 @ Now you, therefore, together with the council, suggest to the commander that he be brought down to you tomorrow, as though you were going to make further inquiries concerning him; but we are ready to kill him before he comes near."

nkjv@Acts:23:19 @ Then the commander took him by the hand, went aside, and asked privately, "What is it that you have to tell me?"

nkjv@Acts:23:21 @ But do not yield to them, for more than forty of them lie in wait for him, men who have bound themselves by an oath that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him; and now they are ready, waiting for the promise from you."

nkjv@Acts:23:27 @ This man was seized by the Jews and was about to be killed by them. Coming with the troops I rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman.

nkjv@Acts:23:30 @ And when it was told me that the Jews lay in wait for the man, I sent him immediately to you, and also commanded his accusers to state before you the charges against him. Farewell.

nkjv@Acts:23:32 @ The next day they left the horsemen to go on with him, and returned to the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:23:34 @ And when the governor had read it, he asked what province he was from. And when he understood that he was from Cilicia,

nkjv@Acts:24:1 @ Now after five days Ananias the high priest came down with the elders and a certain orator named Tertullus. These gave evidence to the governor against Paul.

nkjv@Acts:24:2 @ And when he was called upon, Tertullus began his accusation, saying: "Seeing that through you we enjoy great peace, and prosperity is being brought to this nation by your foresight,

nkjv@Acts:24:3 @ we accept it always and in all places, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness.

nkjv@Acts:24:7 @ But the commander Lysias came by and with great violence took him out of our hands,

nkjv@Acts:24:11 @ because you may ascertain that it is no more than twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem to worship.

nkjv@Acts:24:12 @ And they neither found me in the temple disputing with anyone nor inciting the crowd, either in the synagogues or in the city.

nkjv@Acts:24:14 @ But this I confess to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect, so I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the Law and in the Prophets.

nkjv@Acts:24:16 @ This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense toward God and men.

nkjv@Acts:24:18 @ in the midst of which some Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with a mob nor with tumult.

nkjv@Acts:24:21 @ unless it is for this one statement which I cried out, standing among them, "Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged by you this day."'

nkjv@Acts:24:23 @ So he commanded the centurion to keep Paul and to let him have liberty, and told him not to forbid any of his friends to provide for or visit him.

nkjv@Acts:24:24 @ And after some days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, he sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.

nkjv@Acts:24:26 @ Meanwhile he also hoped that money would be given him by Paul, that he might release him. Therefore he sent for him more often and conversed with him.

nkjv@Acts:25:2 @ Then the high priest and the chief men of the Jews informed him against Paul; and they petitioned him,

nkjv@Acts:25:5 @ "Therefore," he said, "let those who have authority among you go down with me and accuse this man, to see if there is any fault in him."

nkjv@Acts:25:6 @ And when he had remained among them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea. And the next day, sitting on the judgment seat, he commanded Paul to be brought.

nkjv@Acts:25:8 @ while he answered for himself, "Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended in anything at all."

nkjv@Acts:25:11 @ For if I am an offender, or have committed anything deserving of death, I do not object to dying; but if there is nothing in these things of which these men accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar."

nkjv@Acts:25:12 @ Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, "You have appealed to Caesar? To Caesar you shall go!"

nkjv@Acts:25:16 @ To them I answered, "It is not the custom of the Romans to deliver any man to destruction before the accused meets the accusers face to face, and has opportunity to answer for himself concerning the charge against him.'

nkjv@Acts:25:17 @ Therefore when they had come together, without any delay, the next day I sat on the judgment seat and commanded the man to be brought in.

nkjv@Acts:25:23 @ So the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp, and had entered the auditorium with the commanders and the prominent men of the city, at Festus' command Paul was brought in.

nkjv@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said: "King Agrippa and all the men who are here present with us, you see this man about whom the whole assembly of the Jews petitioned me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying out that he was not fit to live any longer.

nkjv@Acts:25:25 @ But when I found that he had committed nothing deserving of death, and that he himself had appealed to Augustus, I decided to send him.

nkjv@Acts:25:26 @ I have nothing certain to write to my lord concerning him. Therefore I have brought him out before you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the examination has taken place I may have something to write.

nkjv@Acts:25:27 @ For it seems to me unreasonable to send a prisoner and not to specify the charges against him."

nkjv@Acts:26:1 @ Then Agrippa said to Paul, "You are permitted to speak for yourself." So Paul stretched out his hand and answered for himself:

nkjv@Acts:26:3 @ especially because you are expert in all customs and questions which have to do with the Jews. Therefore I beg you to hear me patiently.

nkjv@Acts:26:8 @ Why should it be thought incredible by you that God raises the dead?

nkjv@Acts:26:10 @ This I also did in Jerusalem, and many of the saints I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I cast my vote against them.

nkjv@Acts:26:11 @ And I punished them often in every synagogue and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly enraged against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.

nkjv@Acts:26:12 @ "While thus occupied, as I journeyed to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,

nkjv@Acts:26:13 @ at midday, O king, along the road I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who journeyed with me.

nkjv@Acts:26:14 @ And when we all had fallen to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me and saying in the Hebrew language, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'

nkjv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you.

nkjv@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.'

nkjv@Acts:26:20 @ but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance.

nkjv@Acts:26:22 @ Therefore, having obtained help from God, to this day I stand, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other things than those which the prophets and Moses said would come--

nkjv@Acts:26:24 @ Now as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, "Paul, you are beside yourself! Much learning is driving you mad!"

nkjv@Acts:26:30 @ When he had said these things, the king stood up, as well as the governor and Bernice and those who sat with them;

nkjv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decided that we should sail to Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to one named Julius, a centurion of the Augustan Regiment.

nkjv@Acts:27:2 @ So, entering a ship of Adramyttium, we put to sea, meaning to sail along the coasts of Asia. Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, was with us.

nkjv@Acts:27:5 @ And when we had sailed over the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.

nkjv@Acts:27:6 @ There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing to Italy, and he put us on board.

nkjv@Acts:27:7 @ When we had sailed slowly many days, and arrived with difficulty off Cnidus, the wind not permitting us to proceed, we sailed under the shelter of Crete off Salmone.

nkjv@Acts:27:8 @ Passing it with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.

nkjv@Acts:27:10 @ saying, "Men, I perceive that this voyage will end with disaster and much loss, not only of the cargo and ship, but also our lives."

nkjv@Acts:27:12 @ And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised to set sail from there also, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete opening toward the southwest and northwest, and winter there.

nkjv@Acts:27:16 @ And running under the shelter of an island called Clauda, we secured the skiff with difficulty.

nkjv@Acts:27:17 @ When they had taken it on board, they used cables to undergird the ship; and fearing lest they should run aground on the Syrtis Sands, they struck sail and so were driven.

nkjv@Acts:27:19 @ On the third day we threw the ship's tackle overboard with our own hands.

nkjv@Acts:27:20 @ Now when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest beat on us, all hope that we would be saved was finally given up.

nkjv@Acts:27:24 @ saying, "Do not be afraid, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar; and indeed God has granted you all those who sail with you.'

nkjv@Acts:27:25 @ Therefore take heart, men, for I believe God that it will be just as it was told me.

nkjv@Acts:27:28 @ And they took soundings and found it to be twenty fathoms; and when they had gone a little farther, they took soundings again and found it to be fifteen fathoms.

nkjv@Acts:27:32 @ Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the skiff and let it fall off.

nkjv@Acts:27:33 @ And as day was about to dawn, Paul implored them all to take food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day you have waited and continued without food, and eaten nothing.

nkjv@Acts:27:35 @ And when he had said these things, he took bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of them all; and when he had broken it he began to eat.

nkjv@Acts:27:39 @ When it was day, they did not recognize the land; but they observed a bay with a beach, onto which they planned to run the ship if possible.

nkjv@Acts:27:44 @ and the rest, some on boards and some on parts of the ship. And so it was that they all escaped safely to land.

nkjv@Acts:28:7 @ In that region there was an estate of the leading citizen of the island, whose name was Publius, who received us and entertained us courteously for three days.

nkjv@Acts:28:8 @ And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and dysentery. Paul went in to him and prayed, and he laid his hands on him and healed him.

nkjv@Acts:28:14 @ where we found brethren, and were invited to stay with them seven days. And so we went toward Rome.

nkjv@Acts:28:16 @ Now when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

nkjv@Acts:28:17 @ And it came to pass after three days that Paul called the leaders of the Jews together. So when they had come together, he said to them: "Men and brethren, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

nkjv@Acts:28:19 @ But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything of which to accuse my nation.

nkjv@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."

nkjv@Acts:28:21 @ Then they said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren who came reported or spoken any evil of you.

nkjv@Acts:28:22 @ But we desire to hear from you what you think; for concerning this sect, we know that it is spoken against everywhere."

nkjv@Acts:28:25 @ So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

nkjv@Acts:28:27 @ For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them."'

nkjv@Romans:2:11 @ For there is no partiality with God.

nkjv@Romans:2:12 @ For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law

nkjv@Romans:2:15 @ who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them)

nkjv@Romans:2:22 @ You who say, "Do not commit adultery," do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

nkjv@Romans:2:24 @ For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," as it is written.

nkjv@Romans:2:25 @ For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

nkjv@Romans:2:27 @ And will not the physically uncircumcised, if he fulfills the law, judge you who, even with your written code and circumcision, are a transgressor of the law?

nkjv@Romans:2:29 @ but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.

nkjv@Romans:3:1 @ What advantage then has the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision?

nkjv@Romans:3:2 @ Much in every way! Chiefly because to them were committed the oracles of God.

nkjv@Romans:3:3 @ For what if some did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faithfulness of God without effect?

nkjv@Romans:3:4 @ Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written: "That You may be justified in Your words, And may overcome when You are judged."

nkjv@Romans:3:10 @ As it is written: "There is none righteous, no, not one;

nkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one."

nkjv@Romans:3:13 @ "Their throat is an open tomb; With their tongues they have practiced deceit"; "The poison of asps is under their lips";

nkjv@Romans:3:14 @ "Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness."

nkjv@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

nkjv@Romans:3:21 @ But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,

nkjv@Romans:3:22 @ even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference;

nkjv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,

nkjv@Romans:3:26 @ to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

nkjv@Romans:3:27 @ Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.

nkjv@Romans:3:28 @ Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.

nkjv@Romans:3:30 @ since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.

nkjv@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.

nkjv@Romans:4:3 @ For what does the Scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness."

nkjv@Romans:4:5 @ But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,

nkjv@Romans:4:9 @ Does this blessedness then come upon the circumcised only, or upon the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it accounted? While he was circumcised, or uncircumcised? Not while circumcised, but while uncircumcised.

nkjv@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while still uncircumcised, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they are uncircumcised, that righteousness might be imputed to them also,

nkjv@Romans:4:12 @ and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while still uncircumcised.

nkjv@Romans:4:13 @ For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

nkjv@Romans:4:14 @ For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of no effect,

nkjv@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

nkjv@Romans:4:17 @ (as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations" ) in the presence of Him whom he believed--God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;

nkjv@Romans:4:19 @ And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah's womb.

nkjv@Romans:4:20 @ He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God,

nkjv@Romans:4:22 @ And therefore "it was accounted to him for righteousness."

nkjv@Romans:4:23 @ Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him,

nkjv@Romans:4:24 @ but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead,

nkjv@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@Romans:5:2 @ through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

nkjv@Romans:5:5 @ Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

nkjv@Romans:5:6 @ For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

nkjv@Romans:6:2 @ Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?

nkjv@Romans:6:4 @ Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

nkjv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,

nkjv@Romans:6:6 @ knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.

nkjv@Romans:6:8 @ Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,

nkjv@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

nkjv@Romans:6:21 @ What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.

nkjv@Romans:6:22 @ But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.

nkjv@Romans:7:4 @ Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another--to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.

nkjv@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death.

nkjv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.

nkjv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead.

nkjv@Romans:7:9 @ I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

nkjv@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.

nkjv@Romans:7:13 @ Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.

nkjv@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.

nkjv@Romans:7:16 @ If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good.

nkjv@Romans:7:17 @ But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

nkjv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.

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

nkjv@Romans:7:21 @ I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good.

nkjv@Romans:7:23 @ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

nkjv@Romans:7:25 @ I thank God--through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

nkjv@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

nkjv@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh,

nkjv@Romans:8:4 @ 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.

nkjv@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, the things of the Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:8:6 @ For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

nkjv@Romans:8:7 @ Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

nkjv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.

nkjv@Romans:8:10 @ And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:8:11 @ But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@Romans:8:14 @ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

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

nkjv@Romans:8:16 @ The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

nkjv@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs--heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

nkjv@Romans:8:18 @ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

nkjv@Romans:8:19 @ For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;

nkjv@Romans:8:21 @ because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.

nkjv@Romans:8:23 @ Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.

nkjv@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

nkjv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

nkjv@Romans:8:27 @ Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

nkjv@Romans:8:33 @ Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies.

nkjv@Romans:8:34 @ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

nkjv@Romans:8:36 @ As it is written: "For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."

nkjv@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,

nkjv@Romans:9:1 @ I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Romans:9:4 @ who are Israelites, to whom pertain the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises;

nkjv@Romans:9:6 @ But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel,

nkjv@Romans:9:12 @ it was said to her, "The older shall serve the younger."

nkjv@Romans:9:13 @ As it is written, "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated."

nkjv@Romans:9:14 @ What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Certainly not!

nkjv@Romans:9:16 @ So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.

nkjv@Romans:9:20 @ But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, "Why have you made me like this?"

nkjv@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,

nkjv@Romans:9:26 @ "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, "You are not My people,' There they shall be called sons of the living God."

nkjv@Romans:9:28 @ For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth."

nkjv@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness of faith;

nkjv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone.

nkjv@Romans:9:33 @ As it is written: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

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

nkjv@Romans:10:3 @ For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

nkjv@Romans:10:5 @ For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law, "The man who does those things shall live by them."

nkjv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, "Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?"' (that is, to bring Christ down from above)

nkjv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we preach):

nkjv@Romans:10:9 @ that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

nkjv@Romans:10:10 @ For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

nkjv@Romans:10:14 @ How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

nkjv@Romans:10:15 @ And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!"

nkjv@Romans:10:17 @ So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

nkjv@Romans:11:1 @ I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

nkjv@Romans:11:2 @ God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying,

nkjv@Romans:11:6 @ And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

nkjv@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel has not obtained what it seeks; but the elect have obtained it, and the rest were blinded.

nkjv@Romans:11:8 @ Just as it is written: "God has given them a spirit of stupor, Eyes that they should not see And ears that they should not hear, To this very day."

nkjv@Romans:11:16 @ For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

nkjv@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,

nkjv@Romans:11:20 @ Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear.

nkjv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.

nkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

nkjv@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

nkjv@Romans:11:27 @ For this is My covenant with them, When I take away their sins."

nkjv@Romans:11:32 @ For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.

nkjv@Romans:11:35 @ "Or who has first given to Him And it shall be repaid to him?"

nkjv@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

nkjv@Romans:12:6 @ Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith;

nkjv@Romans:12:7 @ or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching;

nkjv@Romans:12:8 @ he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

nkjv@Romans:12:9 @ Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.

nkjv@Romans:12:10 @ Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another;

nkjv@Romans:12:11 @ not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;

nkjv@Romans:12:13 @ distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.

nkjv@Romans:12:15 @ Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.

nkjv@Romans:12:16 @ Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

nkjv@Romans:12:18 @ If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.

nkjv@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord.

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

nkjv@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.

nkjv@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.

nkjv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.

nkjv@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not covet," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

nkjv@Romans:13:11 @ And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.

nkjv@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

nkjv@Romans:14:1 @ Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things.

nkjv@Romans:14:6 @ He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.

nkjv@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written: "As I live, says the LORD, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God."

nkjv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

nkjv@Romans:14:15 @ Yet if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.

nkjv@Romans:14:17 @ for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:14:20 @ Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure, but it is evil for the man who eats with offense.

nkjv@Romans:14:21 @ It is good neither to eat meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles or is offended or is made weak.

nkjv@Romans:14:22 @ Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves.

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

nkjv@Romans:15:1 @ We then who are strong ought to bear with the scruples of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

nkjv@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."

nkjv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.

nkjv@Romans:15:6 @ that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Romans:15:9 @ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written: "For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles, And sing to Your name."

nkjv@Romans:15:10 @ And again he says: "Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!"

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

nkjv@Romans:15:14 @ Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

nkjv@Romans:15:15 @ Nevertheless, brethren, I have written more boldly to you on some points, as reminding you, because of the grace given to me by God,

nkjv@Romans:15:16 @ that I might be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:15:19 @ in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

nkjv@Romans:15:20 @ And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build on another man's foundation,

nkjv@Romans:15:21 @ but as it is written: "To whom He was not announced, they shall see; And those who have not heard shall understand."

nkjv@Romans:15:26 @ For it pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.

nkjv@Romans:15:27 @ It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in material things.

nkjv@Romans:15:28 @ Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them this fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain.

nkjv@Romans:15:30 @ Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in prayers to God for me,

nkjv@Romans:15:32 @ that I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may be refreshed together with you.

nkjv@Romans:15:33 @ Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:16:5 @ Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia to Christ.

nkjv@Romans:16:14 @ Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren who are with them.

nkjv@Romans:16:15 @ Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them.

nkjv@Romans:16:16 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ greet you.

nkjv@Romans:16:20 @ And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius, my host and the host of the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, and Quartus, a brother.

nkjv@Romans:16:24 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:16:26 @ but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith--

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:2 @ To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent."

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:31 @ that, as it is written, "He who glories, let him glory in the LORD."

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:3 @ I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him."

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:13 @ These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:1 @ And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able;

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:12 @ Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:13 @ each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If anyone's work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:19 @ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, "He catches the wise in their own craftiness";

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:2 @ Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up on behalf of one against the other.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:8 @ You are already full! You are already rich! You have reigned as kings without us--and indeed I could wish you did reign, that we also might reign with you!

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:12 @ And we labor, working with our own hands. Being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we endure;

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore I urge you, imitate me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this reason I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful son in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach everywhere in every church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles--that a man has his father's wife!

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:5 @ deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in my epistle not to keep company with sexually immoral people.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:10 @ Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Now therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you go to law against one another. Why do you not rather accept wrong? Why do you not rather let yourselves be cheated?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:10 @ nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:13 @ Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For "the two," He says, "shall become one flesh."

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning the things of which you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:2 @ Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:4 @ The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am;

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is willing to live with him, let him not divorce her.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And a woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is willing to live with her, let her not divorce him.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Brethren, let each one remain with God in that state in which he was called.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I suppose therefore that this is good because of the present distress--that it is good for a man to remain as he is:

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:31 @ and those who use this world as not misusing it. For the form of this world is passing away.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:32 @ But I want you to be without care. He who is unmarried cares for the things of the Lord--how he may please the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world--how she may please her husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:35 @ And this I say for your own profit, not that I may put a leash on you, but for what is proper, and that you may serve the Lord without distraction.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any man thinks he is behaving improperly toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of youth, and thus it must be, let him do what he wishes. He does not sin; let them marry.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:37 @ Nevertheless he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has power over his own will, and has so determined in his heart that he will keep his virgin, does well.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But she is happier if she remains as she is, according to my judgment--and I think I also have the Spirit of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, there is not in everyone that knowledge; for some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:7 @ Who ever goes to war at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Or who tends a flock and does not drink of the milk of the flock?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the law of Moses, "You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain." Is it oxen God is concerned about?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or does He say it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written, that he who plows should plow in hope, and he who threshes in hope should be partaker of his hope.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown spiritual things for you, is it a great thing if we reap your material things?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for it would be better for me to die than that anyone should make my boasting void.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but if against my will, I have been entrusted with a stewardship.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What is my reward then? That when I preach the gospel, I may present the gospel of Christ without charge, that I may not abuse my authority in the gospel.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:21 @ to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ ), that I might win those who are without law;

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:23 @ Now this I do for the gospel's sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:25 @ And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:26 @ Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:3 @ all ate the same spiritual food,

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:5 @ But with most of them God was not well pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:7 @ And do not become idolaters as were some of them. As it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play."

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:16 @ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:26 @ for "the earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness."

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any of those who do not believe invites you to dinner, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; for "the earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness."

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:30 @ But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food over which I give thanks?

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Give no offense, either to the Jews or to the Greeks or to the church of God,

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:1 @ Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:10 @ For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:11 @ Nevertheless, neither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Therefore when you come together in one place, it is not to eat the Lord's Supper.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Therefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant:

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:5 @ does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:6 @ does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Even things without life, whether flute or harp, when they make a sound, unless they make a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is piped or played?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So likewise you, unless you utter by the tongue words easy to understand, how will it be known what is spoken? For you will be speaking into the air.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, it may be, so many kinds of languages in the world, and none of them is without significance.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all;

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ yet in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may teach others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written: "With men of other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me," says the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:30 @ But if anything is revealed to another who sits by, let the first keep silent.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:32 @ And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Or did the word of God come originally from you? Or was it you only that it reached?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:39 @ Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Therefore, whether it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:15 @ Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we have testified of God that He raised up Christ, whom He did not raise up--if in fact the dead do not rise.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins!

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ's at His coming.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:27 @ For "He has put all things under His feet." But when He says "all things are put under Him," it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If, in the manner of men, I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantage is it to me? If the dead do not rise, "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!"

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:33 @ Do not be deceived: "Evil company corrupts good habits."

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But someone will say, "How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?"

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:36 @ Foolish one, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it a body as He pleases, and to each seed its own body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:44 @ It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ And so it is written, "The first man Adam became a living being." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:46 @ However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:4 @ But if it is fitting that I go also, they will go with me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ And it may be that I will remain, or even spend the winter with you, that you may send me on my journey, wherever I go.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not wish to see you now on the way; but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ And if Timothy comes, see that he may be with you without fear; for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brethren, but he was quite unwilling to come at this time; however, he will come when he has a convenient time.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:14 @ Let all that you do be done with love.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:15 @ I urge you, brethren--you know the household of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to the ministry of the saints--

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:16 @ that you also submit to such, and to everyone who works and labors with us.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you heartily in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:20 @ All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:21 @ The salutation with my own hand--Paul's.

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

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that we conducted ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom but by the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we are not writing any other things to you than what you read or understand. Now I trust you will understand, even to the end

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I intended to come to you before, that you might have a second benefit--

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:17 @ Therefore, when I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be Yes, Yes, and No, No?

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:18 @ But as God is faithful, our word to you was not Yes and No.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:21 @ Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God,

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:22 @ who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:23 @ Moreover I call God as witness against my soul, that to spare you I came no more to Corinth.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we have dominion over your faith, but are fellow workers for your joy; for by faith you stand.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:1 @ But I determined this within myself, that I would not come again to you in sorrow.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you, with many tears, not that you should be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have so abundantly for you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:6 @ This punishment which was inflicted by the majority is sufficient for such a man,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so that, on the contrary, you ought rather to forgive and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with too much sorrow.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I departed for Macedonia.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men;

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:3 @ clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away,

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:8 @ how will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious?

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:17 @ Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:3 @ But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing,

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believed and therefore I spoke," we also believe and therefore speak,

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:14 @ knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:5 @ Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:7 @ For we walk by faith, not by sight.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:9 @ Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ For we do not commend ourselves again to you, but give you opportunity to boast on our behalf, that you may have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; or if we are of sound mind, it is for you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:1 @ We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:6 @ by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:15 @ And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I am exceedingly joyful in all our tribulation.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming, but also by the consolation with which he was comforted in you, when he told us of your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced even more.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it; though I did regret it. For I perceive that the same epistle made you sorry, though only for a while.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For observe this very thing, that you sorrowed in a godly manner: What diligence it produced in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what vehement desire, what zeal, what vindication! In all things you proved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Therefore, although I wrote to you, I did not do it for the sake of him who had done the wrong, nor for the sake of him who suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear to you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we have been comforted in your comfort. And we rejoiced exceedingly more for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if in anything I have boasted to him about you, I am not ashamed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, even so our boasting to Titus was found true.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his affections are greater for you as he remembers the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling you received him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded in the riches of their liberality.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For I bear witness that according to their ability, yes, and beyond their ability, they were freely willing,

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:4 @ imploring us with much urgency that we would receive the gift and the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:6 @ So we urged Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also complete this grace in you as well.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:7 @ But as you abound in everything--in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all diligence, and in your love for us--see that you abound in this grace also.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this I give advice: It is to your advantage not only to be doing what you began and were desiring to do a year ago;

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ but now you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack--that there may be equality.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:15 @ As it is written, "He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack."

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:18 @ And we have sent with him the brother whose praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches,

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but who was also chosen by the churches to travel with us with this gift, which is administered by us to the glory of the Lord Himself and to show your ready mind,

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, because of the great confidence which we have in you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If anyone inquires about Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker concerning you. Or if our brethren are inquired about, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Now concerning the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you;

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know your willingness, about which I boast of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has stirred up the majority.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ lest if some Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we (not to mention you!) should be ashamed of this confident boasting.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go to you ahead of time, and prepare your generous gift beforehand, which you had previously promised, that it may be ready as a matter of generosity and not as a grudging obligation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:7 @ So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written: "He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever."

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:10 @ Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness,

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:11 @ while you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ while, through the proof of this ministry, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal sharing with them and all men,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I, Paul, myself am pleading with you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--who in presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ But I beg you that when I am present I may not be bold with that confidence by which I intend to be bold against some, who think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:5 @ casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I should boast somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord gave us for edification and not for your destruction, I shall not be ashamed--

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appointed us--a sphere which especially includes you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not overextending ourselves (as though our authority did not extend to you), for it was to you that we came with the gospel of Christ;

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ not boasting of things beyond measure, that is, in other men's labors, but having hope, that as your faith is increased, we shall be greatly enlarged by you in our sphere,

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ Oh, that you would bear with me in a little folly--and indeed you do bear with me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted--you may well put up with it!

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge?

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was present with you, and in need, I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:15 @ Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, let no one think me a fool. If otherwise, at least receive me as a fool, that I also may boast a little.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:17 @ What I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as it were, foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:19 @ For you put up with fools gladly, since you yourselves are wise!

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you put up with it if one brings you into bondage, if one devours you, if one takes from you, if one exalts himself, if one strikes you on the face.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:29 @ Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:30 @ If I must boast, I will boast in the things which concern my infirmity.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, was guarding the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desiring to arrest me;

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:1 @ It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord:

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:4 @ how he was caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:5 @ Of such a one I will boast; yet of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ Truly the signs of an apostle were accomplished among you with all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For what is it in which you were inferior to other churches, except that I myself was not burdensome to you? Forgive me this wrong!

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:16 @ But be that as it may, I did not burden you. Nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you by cunning!

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus, and sent our brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same spirit? Did we not walk in the same steps?

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found by you such as you do not wish; lest there be contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, backbitings, whisperings, conceits, tumults;

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This will be the third time I am coming to you. "By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established."

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have told you before, and foretell as if I were present the second time, and now being absent I write to those who have sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare--

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For though 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 toward you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you are disqualified.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the authority which the Lord has given me for edification and not for destruction.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:12 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss.

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

nkjv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brethren who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:

nkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God beyond measure and tried to destroy it.

nkjv@Galatians:1:14 @ And I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries in my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

nkjv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me through His grace,

nkjv@Galatians:1:16 @ to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,

nkjv@Galatians:1:18 @ Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and remained with him fifteen days.

nkjv@Galatians:1:20 @ (Now concerning the things which I write to you, indeed, before God, I do not lie.)

nkjv@Galatians:1:23 @ But they were hearing only, "He who formerly persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy."

nkjv@Galatians:2:1 @ Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and also took Titus with me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:3 @ Yet not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.

nkjv@Galatians:2:5 @ to whom we did not yield submission even for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

nkjv@Galatians:2:6 @ But from those who seemed to be something--whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no man--for those who seemed to be something added nothing to me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:7 @ But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel for the uncircumcised had been committed to me, as the gospel for the circumcised was to Peter

nkjv@Galatians:2:11 @ Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed;

nkjv@Galatians:2:12 @ for before certain men came from James, he would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

nkjv@Galatians:2:13 @ And the rest of the Jews also played the hypocrite with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.

nkjv@Galatians:2:16 @ knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.

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

nkjv@Galatians:3:1 @ O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified?

nkjv@Galatians:3:2 @ This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

nkjv@Galatians:3:3 @ Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?

nkjv@Galatians:3:4 @ Have you suffered so many things in vain--if indeed it was in vain?

nkjv@Galatians:3:5 @ Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?--

nkjv@Galatians:3:6 @ just as Abraham "believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness."

nkjv@Galatians:3:7 @ Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham.

nkjv@Galatians:3:8 @ And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed."

nkjv@Galatians:3:9 @ So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.

nkjv@Galatians:3:10 @ For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them."

nkjv@Galatians:3:11 @ But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for "the just shall live by faith."

nkjv@Galatians:3:12 @ Yet the law is not of faith, but "the man who does them shall live by them."

nkjv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree" ),

nkjv@Galatians:3:14 @ that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

nkjv@Galatians:3:15 @ Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man's covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it.

nkjv@Galatians:3:17 @ And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, that it should make the promise of no effect.

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

nkjv@Galatians:3:19 @ What purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was appointed through angels by the hand of a mediator.

nkjv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

nkjv@Galatians:3:23 @ But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed.

nkjv@Galatians:3:24 @ Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

nkjv@Galatians:3:25 @ But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

nkjv@Galatians:3:26 @ For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@Galatians:3:28 @ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!"

nkjv@Galatians:4:9 @ But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?

nkjv@Galatians:4:13 @ You know that because of physical infirmity I preached the gospel to you at the first.

nkjv@Galatians:4:15 @ What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me.

nkjv@Galatians:4:18 @ But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you.

nkjv@Galatians:4:19 @ My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you,

nkjv@Galatians:4:20 @ I would like to be present with you now and to change my tone; for I have doubts about you.

nkjv@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman.

nkjv@Galatians:4:25 @ for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children--

nkjv@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written: "Rejoice, O barren, You who do not bear! Break forth and shout, You who are not in labor! For the desolate has many more children Than she who has a husband."

nkjv@Galatians:4:29 @ But, as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now.

nkjv@Galatians:4:30 @ Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman."

nkjv@Galatians:5:1 @ Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

nkjv@Galatians:5:2 @ Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.

nkjv@Galatians:5:5 @ For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

nkjv@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.

nkjv@Galatians:5:9 @ A little leaven leavens the whole lump.

nkjv@Galatians:5:13 @ For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

nkjv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!

nkjv@Galatians:5:16 @ I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

nkjv@Galatians:5:17 @ For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.

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

nkjv@Galatians:5:20 @ idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,

nkjv@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

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

nkjv@Galatians:5:24 @ And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

nkjv@Galatians:5:25 @ If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

nkjv@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

nkjv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.

nkjv@Galatians:6:6 @ Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.

nkjv@Galatians:6:8 @ For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

nkjv@Galatians:6:10 @ Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

nkjv@Galatians:6:11 @ See with what large letters I have written to you with my own hand!

nkjv@Galatians:6:15 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.

nkjv@Galatians:6:18 @ Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

nkjv@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, To the saints who are in Ephesus, and faithful in Christ Jesus:

nkjv@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:4 @ just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:11 @ In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:13 @ In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:14 @ who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.

nkjv@Ephesians:1:15 @ Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:18 @ the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:4 @ But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:5 @ even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

nkjv@Ephesians:2:6 @ and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

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

nkjv@Ephesians:2:12 @ that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:16 @ and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:18 @ For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:19 @ Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:21 @ in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:19 @ who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:5 @ For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

nkjv@Philippians:1:6 @ being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

nkjv@Philippians:1:7 @ just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace.

nkjv@Philippians:1:8 @ For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Philippians:1:10 @ that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ,

nkjv@Philippians:1:11 @ being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

nkjv@Philippians:1:13 @ so that it has become evident to the whole palace guard, and to all the rest, that my chains are in Christ;

nkjv@Philippians:1:14 @ and most of the brethren in the Lord, having become confident by my chains, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

nkjv@Philippians:1:16 @ The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains;

nkjv@Philippians:1:19 @ For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

nkjv@Philippians:1:20 @ according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.

nkjv@Philippians:1:22 @ But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell.

nkjv@Philippians:1:23 @ For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.

nkjv@Philippians:1:25 @ And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith,

nkjv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel,

nkjv@Philippians:1:29 @ For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake,

nkjv@Philippians:2:1 @ Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy,

nkjv@Philippians:2:6 @ who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,

nkjv@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

nkjv@Philippians:2:13 @ for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

nkjv@Philippians:2:14 @ Do all things without complaining and disputing,

nkjv@Philippians:4:9 @ The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.

nkjv@Philippians:4:10 @ But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at last your1 care for me has flourished again; though you surely did care, but you lacked opportunity.

nkjv@Philippians:4:15 @ Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only.

nkjv@Colossians:4:10 @ Aristarchus my fellow prisoner greets you, with Mark the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions: if he comes to you, welcome him),

nkjv@Colossians:4:13 @ For I bear him witness that he has a great zeal for you, and those who are in Laodicea, and those in Hierapolis.

nkjv@Colossians:4:16 @ Now when this epistle is read among you, see that it is read also in the church of the Laodiceans, and that you likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.

nkjv@Colossians:4:17 @ And say to Archippus, "Take heed to the ministry which you have received in the Lord, that you may fulfill it."

nkjv@Colossians:4:18 @ This salutation by my own hand--Paul. Remember my chains. Grace be with you. Amen.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became followers of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For from you the word of the Lord has sounded forth, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place. Your faith toward God has gone out, so that we do not need to say anything.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ But even after we had suffered before and were spitefully treated at Philippi, as you know, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God in much conflict.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our exhortation did not come from error or uncleanness, nor was it in deceit.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God who tests our hearts.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither at any time did we use flattering words, as you know, nor a cloak for covetousness--God is witness.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor did we seek glory from men, either from you or from others, when we might have made demands as apostles of Christ.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and God also, how devoutly and justly and blamelessly we behaved ourselves among you who believe;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, just as they did from the Judeans,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, having been taken away from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavored more eagerly to see your face with great desire.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore, when we could no longer endure it, we thought it good to be left in Athens alone,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God, and our fellow laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you and encourage you concerning your faith,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For, in fact, we told you before when we were with you that we would suffer tribulation, just as it happened, and you know.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could no longer endure it, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor might be in vain.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and brought us good news of your faith and love, and that you always have good remembrance of us, greatly desiring to see us, as we also to see you--

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ therefore, brethren, in all our affliction and distress we were comforted concerning you by your faith.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanks can we render to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sake before our God,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face and perfect what is lacking in your faith?

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given us His Holy Spirit.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But concerning brotherly love you have no need that I should write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:18 @ Therefore comfort one another with these words.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the weak, be patient with all.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ pray without ceasing,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:19 @ Do not quench the Spirit.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:26 @ Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss.

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

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each other,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ so that we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things?

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or our epistle.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received from us.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ nor did we eat anyone's bread free of charge, but worked with labor and toil night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ not because we do not have authority, but to make ourselves an example of how you should follow us.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ And if anyone does not obey our word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with you all.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ The salutation of Paul with my own hand, which is a sign in every epistle; so I write.

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

nkjv@1Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, a true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:4 @ nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:5 @ Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:7 @ desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:8 @ But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:10 @ for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:11 @ according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:12 @ And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:13 @ although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:14 @ And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant, with faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:15 @ This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:18 @ This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:19 @ having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:2 @ for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:7 @ for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle--I am speaking the truth in Christ and not lying--a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:8 @ I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;

nkjv@1Timothy:2:9 @ in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:10 @ but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:11 @ Let a woman learn in silence with all submission.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:12 @ And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:15 @ Nevertheless she will be saved in childbearing if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:1 @ This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:2 @ A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;

nkjv@1Timothy:3:4 @ one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence

nkjv@1Timothy:3:6 @ not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:9 @ holding the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:11 @ Likewise, their wives must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:13 @ For those who have served well as deacons obtain for themselves a good standing and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:14 @ These things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly;

nkjv@1Timothy:3:15 @ but if I am delayed, I write so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:16 @ And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,

nkjv@1Timothy:4:2 @ speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,

nkjv@1Timothy:4:3 @ forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:4 @ For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving;

nkjv@1Timothy:4:5 @ for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:6 @ If you instruct the brethren in these things, you will be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished in the words of faith and of the good doctrine which you have carefully followed.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:8 @ For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:9 @ This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:15 @ Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, with all purity.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:8 @ But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:12 @ having condemnation because they have cast off their first faith.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:14 @ Therefore I desire that the younger widows marry, bear children, manage the house, give no opportunity to the adversary to speak reproachfully.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:16 @ If any believing man or woman has widows, let them relieve them, and do not let the church be burdened, that it may relieve those who are really widows.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:18 @ For the Scripture says, "You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain," and, "The laborer is worthy of his wages."

nkjv@1Timothy:5:19 @ Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from two or three witnesses.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:21 @ I charge you before God and the Lord Jesus Christ and the elect angels that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing with partiality.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for your stomach's sake and your frequent infirmities.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:2 @ And those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brethren, but rather serve them because those who are benefited are believers and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:3 @ If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness,

nkjv@1Timothy:6:4 @ he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions,

nkjv@1Timothy:6:5 @ useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:6 @ Now godliness with contentment is great gain.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:7 @ For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:8 @ And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:9 @ But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:10 @ For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:11 @ But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:12 @ Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:13 @ I urge you in the sight of God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who witnessed the good confession before Pontius Pilate,

nkjv@1Timothy:6:14 @ that you keep this commandment without spot, blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ's appearing,

nkjv@1Timothy:6:16 @ who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:20 @ O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge--

nkjv@1Timothy:6:21 @ by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, as my forefathers did, as without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day,

nkjv@2Timothy:1:4 @ greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy,

nkjv@2Timothy:1:5 @ when I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:7 @ For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:8 @ Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God,

nkjv@2Timothy:1:10 @ but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel,

nkjv@2Timothy:1:12 @ For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:2 @ And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:4 @ No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:10 @ Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore, in all things He had to be made like His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses indeed was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward,

nkjv@Hebrews:3:7 @ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you will hear His voice,

nkjv@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was angry with that generation, And said, "They always go astray in their heart, And they have not known My ways.'

nkjv@Hebrews:3:13 @ but exhort one another daily, while it is called "Today," lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:15 @ while it is said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

nkjv@Hebrews:3:16 @ For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses?

nkjv@Hebrews:3:17 @ Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness?

nkjv@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since therefore it remains that some must enter it, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter because of disobedience,

nkjv@Hebrews:4:7 @ again He designates a certain day, saying in David, "Today," after such a long time, as it has been said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts."

nkjv@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become High Priest, but it was He who said to Him: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You."

nkjv@Hebrews:5:7 @ who, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His godly fear,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:3 @ And this we will do if God permits.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:7 @ For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God;

nkjv@Hebrews:6:8 @ but if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:12 @ that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:17 @ Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:18 @ that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:3 @ without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And indeed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham;

nkjv@Hebrews:7:6 @ but he whose genealogy is not derived from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:9 @ Even Levi, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham, so to speak,

nkjv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?

nkjv@Hebrews:7:12 @ For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord arose from Judah, of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is yet far more evident if, in the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another priest

nkjv@Hebrews:7:18 @ For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness,

nkjv@Hebrews:7:20 @ And inasmuch as He was not made priest without an oath

nkjv@Hebrews:7:21 @ (for they have become priests without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: "The LORD has sworn And will not relent, "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek"'),

nkjv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;

nkjv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this One also have something to offer.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:8 @ Because finding fault with them, He says: "Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah--

nkjv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them, says the LORD.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:10 @ For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:4 @ which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which were the golden pot that had the manna, Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:5 @ and above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:7 @ But into the second part the high priest went alone once a year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the people's sins committed in ignorance;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:8 @ the Holy Spirit indicating this, that the way into the Holiest of All was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:9 @ It was symbolic for the present time in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot make him who performed the service perfect in regard to the conscience--

nkjv@Hebrews:9:10 @ concerned only with foods and drinks, various washings, and fleshly ordinances imposed until the time of reformation.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:12 @ Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

nkjv@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a testament is in force after men are dead, since it has no power at all while the testator lives.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:18 @ Therefore not even the first covenant was dedicated without blood.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:19 @ For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:21 @ Then likewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:22 @ And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Therefore it was necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:25 @ not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood of another--

nkjv@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:4 @ For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, "Behold, I have come-- In the volume of the book it is written of Me-- To do Your will, O God."'

nkjv@Hebrews:10:13 @ from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:15 @ But the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had said before,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:16 @ "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,"

nkjv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:28 @ Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

nkjv@Hebrews:10:31 @ It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:

nkjv@Hebrews:10:37 @ "For yet a little while, And He who is coming will come and will not tarry.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:38 @ Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him."

nkjv@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:2 @ For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, "and was not found, because God had taken him"; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise;

nkjv@Hebrews:11:10 @ for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:12 @ Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born as many as the stars of the sky in multitude--innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:15 @ And truly if they had called to mind that country from which they had come out, they would have had opportunity to return.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:16 @ But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said, "In Isaac your seed shall be called,"

nkjv@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden three months by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king's command.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:28 @ By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, lest he who destroyed the firstborn should touch them.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith they passed through the Red Sea as by dry land, whereas the Egyptians, attempting to do so, were drowned.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:30 @ By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were encircled for seven days.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:31 @ By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:33 @ who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented--

nkjv@Hebrews:11:39 @ And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise,

nkjv@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,

nkjv@Hebrews:12:3 @ For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:7 @ If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?

nkjv@Hebrews:12:8 @ But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:9 @ Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

nkjv@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember those who rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been occupied with them.

nkjv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

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

nkjv@James:2:11 @ For He who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

nkjv@James:2:14 @ What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?

nkjv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,

nkjv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warmed and filled," but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?

nkjv@James:2:17 @ Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

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

nkjv@James:2:20 @ But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

nkjv@James:2:22 @ Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?

nkjv@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness." And he was called the friend of God.

nkjv@James:2:24 @ You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

nkjv@James:2:26 @ For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

nkjv@James:3:3 @ Indeed, we put bits in horses' mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body.

nkjv@James:3:5 @ Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles!

nkjv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.

nkjv@James:3:8 @ But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

nkjv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God.

nkjv@James:3:11 @ Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening?

nkjv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.

nkjv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

nkjv@James:3:18 @ Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

nkjv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.

nkjv@James:4:4 @ Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

nkjv@James:4:5 @ Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously"?

nkjv@James:4:7 @ Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

nkjv@James:4:13 @ Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit";

nkjv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

nkjv@James:4:17 @ Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

nkjv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days.

nkjv@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.

nkjv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your "Yes" be "Yes," and your "No," "No," lest you fall into judgment.

nkjv@James:5:14 @ Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

nkjv@James:5:15 @ And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

nkjv@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.

nkjv@James:5:18 @ And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.

nkjv@James:5:20 @ let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.

nkjv@1Peter:1:21 @ who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

nkjv@1Peter:1:22 @ Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart,

nkjv@1Peter:2:5 @ you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame."

nkjv@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, be submissive to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the harsh.

nkjv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.

nkjv@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit,

nkjv@1Peter:3:19 @ by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison,

nkjv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.

nkjv@1Peter:3:22 @ who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.

nkjv@1Peter:4:1 @ Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

nkjv@1Peter:4:4 @ In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you.

nkjv@1Peter:4:6 @ For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

nkjv@1Peter:4:8 @ And above all things have fervent love for one another, for "love will cover a multitude of sins."

nkjv@1Peter:4:9 @ Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

nkjv@1Peter:4:10 @ As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

nkjv@1Peter:4:11 @ If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you;

nkjv@1Peter:4:13 @ but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.

nkjv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.

nkjv@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?

nkjv@1Peter:4:19 @ Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.

nkjv@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble."

nkjv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

nkjv@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silvanus, our faithful brother as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.

nkjv@1Peter:5:13 @ She who is in Babylon, elect together with you, greets you; and so does Mark my son.

nkjv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nkjv@2Peter:1:1 @ Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

nkjv@2Peter:1:5 @ But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge,

nkjv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Peter:1:13 @ Yes, I think it is right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,

nkjv@2Peter:1:16 @ For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty.

nkjv@2Peter:1:18 @ And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.

nkjv@2Peter:1:21 @ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@2Peter:2:3 @ By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.

nkjv@2Peter:2:6 @ and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly;

nkjv@2Peter:2:10 @ and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed. They are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries,

nkjv@2Peter:2:13 @ and will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you,

nkjv@2Peter:2:16 @ but he was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man's voice restrained the madness of the prophet.

nkjv@2Peter:2:17 @ These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.

nkjv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

nkjv@2Peter:2:22 @ But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: "A dog returns to his own vomit," and, "a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire."

nkjv@2Peter:3:1 @ Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder),

nkjv@2Peter:3:6 @ by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water.

nkjv@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

nkjv@2Peter:3:8 @ But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

nkjv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

nkjv@2Peter:3:12 @ looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

nkjv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;

nkjv@2Peter:3:15 @ and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation--as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,

nkjv@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked;

nkjv@1John:1:1 @ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life--

nkjv@1John:1:2 @ the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us--

nkjv@1John:1:3 @ that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1John:1:4 @ And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.

nkjv@1John:1:6 @ If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.

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

nkjv@1John:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

nkjv@1John:2:1 @ My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

nkjv@1John:2:2 @ And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

nkjv@1John:2:7 @ Brethren, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

nkjv@1John:2:8 @ Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

nkjv@1John:2:12 @ I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake.

nkjv@1John:2:13 @ I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, little children, Because you have known the Father.

nkjv@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, And you have overcome the wicked one.

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

nkjv@1John:2:18 @ Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.

nkjv@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 they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.

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

nkjv@1John:2:23 @ Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

nkjv@1John:2:26 @ These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you.

nkjv@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 the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

nkjv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

nkjv@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

nkjv@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 is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

nkjv@1John:3:4 @ Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.

nkjv@1John:3:6 @ Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.

nkjv@1John:3:7 @ Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.

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

nkjv@1John:3:24 @ Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

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

nkjv@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

nkjv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

nkjv@1John:4:4 @ You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

nkjv@1John:4:6 @ We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

nkjv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

nkjv@1John:4:13 @ By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.

nkjv@1John:5:4 @ For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.

nkjv@1John:5:6 @ This is He who came by water and blood--Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.

nkjv@1John:5:7 @ For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.

nkjv@1John:5:8 @ And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

nkjv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son.

nkjv@1John:5:10 @ He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son.

nkjv@1John:5:13 @ These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

nkjv@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.

nkjv@1John:5:16 @ If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin which does not lead to death, he will ask, and He will give him life for those who commit sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I do not say that he should pray about that.

nkjv@1John:5:21 @ Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

nkjv@2John:1:2 @ because of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever:

nkjv@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

nkjv@2John:1:5 @ And now I plead with you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another.

nkjv@2John:1:6 @ This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.

nkjv@2John:1:12 @ Having many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.

nkjv@3John:1:5 @ Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the brethren and for strangers,

nkjv@3John:1:6 @ who have borne witness of your love before the church. If you send them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God, you will do well,

nkjv@3John:1:10 @ Therefore, if I come, I will call to mind his deeds which he does, prating against us with malicious words. And not content with that, he himself does not receive the brethren, and forbids those who wish to, putting them out of the church.

nkjv@3John:1:11 @ Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. He who does good is of God, but he who does evil has not seen God.

nkjv@3John:1:12 @ Demetrius has a good testimony from all, and from the truth itself. And we also bear witness, and you know that our testimony is true.

nkjv@3John:1:13 @ I had many things to write, but I do not wish to write to you with pen and ink;

nkjv@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

nkjv@Jude:1:7 @ as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

nkjv@Jude:1:8 @ Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries.

nkjv@Jude:1:9 @ Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"

nkjv@Jude:1:11 @ Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah.

nkjv@Jude:1:12 @ These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots;

nkjv@Jude:1:14 @ Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, "Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints,

nkjv@Jude:1:15 @ to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."

nkjv@Jude:1:19 @ These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.

nkjv@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Jude:1:23 @ but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh.
