wmth@Matthew:1:17 @ There are therefore, in all, fourteen generations from Abraham to David; fourteen from David to the Removal to Babylon; and fourteen from the Removal to Babylon to the Christ.

wmth@Matthew:1:20 @ But while he was contemplating this step, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, »Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to bring home your wife Mary, for she is with child through the Holy Spirit.

wmth@Matthew:1:21 @ She will give birth to a Son, and you are to call His name JESUS for He it is who will save His People from their sins.«

wmth@Matthew:2:8 @ He then directed them to go to Bethlehem, adding, »Go and make careful inquiry about the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and do him homage.«

wmth@Matthew:2:13 @ When they were gone, and angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, »Rise: take the babe and His mother and escape to Egypt, and remain there till I bring you word. For Herod is about to make search for the child in order to destroy Him.«

wmth@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, finding that the Magi had trifled with him, was furious, and sent and massacred all the boys under two years of age, in Bethlehem and all its neighbourhood, according to the date he had so carefully ascertained from the Magi.

wmth@Matthew:2:19 @ But after Herod's death an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, and said to him,

wmth@Matthew:2:20 @ »Rise from sleep, and take the child and His mother, and go into the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the child's life are dead.«

wmth@Matthew:2:23 @ and went and settled in a town called Nazareth, in order that these words spoken through the Prophets might be fulfilled,

wmth@Matthew:4:3 @ So the Tempter came and said, »If you are the Son of God, command these stones to turn into loaves.«

wmth@Matthew:4:6 @ and said, »If you are God's Son, throw yourself down; for it is written,

wmth@Matthew:4:13 @ and leaving Nazareth He went and settled at Capernaum, a town by the Lake on the frontiers of Zebulun and Naphtali,

wmth@Matthew:5:3 @ »Blessed are the poor in spirit, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.«

wmth@Matthew:5:4 @ »Blessed are the mourners, for they shall be comforted.«

wmth@Matthew:5:5 @ »Blessed are the meek, for they as heirs shall obtain possession of the earth.«

wmth@Matthew:5:6 @ »Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be completely satisfied.«

wmth@Matthew:5:7 @ »Blessed are the compassionate, for they shall receive compassion.«

wmth@Matthew:5:8 @ »Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.«

wmth@Matthew:5:9 @ »Blessed are the peacemakers, for it is they who will be recognized as sons of God.«

wmth@Matthew:5:10 @ »Blessed are those who have borne persecution in the cause of Righteousness, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.«

wmth@Matthew:5:11 @ »Blessed are you when they have insulted and persecuted you, and have said every cruel thing about you falsely for my sake.

wmth@Matthew:5:13 @ are the salt of the earth; but if salt has become tasteless, in what way can it regain its saltness? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown away and trodden on by the passers by.

wmth@Matthew:5:14 @ are the light of the world; a town cannot be hid if built on a hill-top.

wmth@Matthew:5:23 @ If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, you remember that your brother has a grievance against you,

wmth@Matthew:5:25 @ Come to terms without delay with your opponent while you are yet with him on the way to the court; for fear he should obtain judgement from the magistrate against you, and the magistrate should give you in custody to the officer and you be thrown into prison.

wmth@Matthew:5:29 @ If therefore your eye, even the right eye, is a snare to you, tear it out and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should be thrown into Gehenna.

wmth@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand is a snare to you, cut it off and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should go into Gehenna.

wmth@Matthew:5:48 @ You however are to be complete in goodness, as your Heavenly Father is complete.

wmth@Matthew:6:1 @ »But beware of doing your good actions in the sight of men, in order to attract their gaze; if you do, there is no reward for you with your Father who is in Heaven.«

wmth@Matthew:6:3 @ But when you are giving in charity, let not your left hand perceive what your right hand is doing,

wmth@Matthew:6:5 @ »And when praying, you must not be like the hypocrites. They are fond of standing and praying in the synagogues or at the corners of the wider streets, in order that men may see them. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.«

wmth@Matthew:6:16 @ »When any of you fast, never assume gloomy looks as the hypocrites do; for they disfigure their faces in order that it may be evident to men that they are fasting. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.«

wmth@Matthew:6:18 @ that it may not be apparent to men that you are fasting, but to your Father who is in secret; and your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.

wmth@Matthew:6:25 @ For this reason I charge you not to be over-anxious about your lives, inquiring what you are to eat or what you are to drink, nor yet about your bodies, inquiring what clothes you are to put on. Is not the life more precious than its food, and the body than its clothing?

wmth@Matthew:6:26 @ Look at the birds which fly in the air: they do not sow or reap or store up in barns, but your Heavenly Father feeds them: are not you of much greater value than they?

wmth@Matthew:6:32 @ For all these are questions that Gentiles are always asking; but your Heavenly Father knows that you need these things–all of them.

wmth@Matthew:6:34 @ Do not be over-anxious, therefore, about to-morrow, for to-morrow will bring its own cares. Enough for each day are its own troubles.

wmth@Matthew:7:11 @ If you then, imperfect as you are, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

wmth@Matthew:7:12 @ Everything, therefore, be it what it may, that you would have men do to you, do you also the same to them; for in this the Law and the Prophets are summed up.

wmth@Matthew:7:13 @ »Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad the road which leads to ruin, and many there are who enter by it;«

wmth@Matthew:7:14 @ because narrow is the gate and contracted the road which leads to Life, and few are those who find it.

wmth@Matthew:7:15 @ »Beware of the false teachers–men who come to you in sheep's fleeces, but beneath that disguise they are ravenous wolves.«

wmth@Matthew:7:16 @ By their fruits you will easily recognize them. Are grapes gathered from thorns or figs from brambles?

wmth@Matthew:7:21 @ »Not every one who says to me, `Master, Master,' will enter the Kingdom of the Heavens, but only those who are obedient to my Father who is in Heaven.«

wmth@Matthew:8:2 @ And a leper came to Him, and throwing himself at His feet, said, »Sir, if only you are willing you are able to cleanse me.«

wmth@Matthew:8:4 @ and Jesus said to him, »Be careful to tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses appointed as evidence for them.«

wmth@Matthew:8:25 @ So they came and woke Him, crying, »Master, save us, we are drowning!«

wmth@Matthew:8:26 @ »Why are you so easily frightened,« He replied, »you men of little faith?« Then He rose and reproved the winds and the waves, and there was a perfect calm;

wmth@Matthew:8:28 @ On His arrival at the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, there met Him two men possessed by demons, coming from among the tombs: they were so dangerously fierce that no one was able to pass that way.

wmth@Matthew:9:2 @ Here they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith Jesus said to the paralytic, »Take courage, my child; your sins are pardoned.«

wmth@Matthew:9:4 @ Knowing their thoughts Jesus said, »Why are you cherishing evil thoughts in your hearts?

wmth@Matthew:9:5 @ Why, which is easier? –to say, `Your sins are pardoned,' or to say `Rise up and walk'?

wmth@Matthew:9:17 @ Nor do people pour new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the skins would split, the wine would escape, and the skins be destroyed. But they put new wine into fresh skins, and both are saved.«

wmth@Matthew:9:25 @ When however the place was cleared of the crowd, Jesus went in, and on His taking the little girl by the hand, she rose up.

wmth@Matthew:9:30 @ Then their eyes were opened. And assuming a stern tone Jesus said to them, »Be careful to let no one know.«

wmth@Matthew:9:37 @ Then He said to His disciples, »The harvest is abundant, but the reapers are few;

wmth@Matthew:10:17 @ But beware of men; for they will deliver you up to appear before Sanhedrins, and will flog you in their synagogues;

wmth@Matthew:10:21 @ Brother will betray brother to death, and father, child; and children will rise against their own parents and will put them to death.

wmth@Matthew:10:22 @ And you will be objects of universal hatred because you are called by my name; but he who holds out to the End–he will be saved.

wmth@Matthew:10:30 @ But as for you, the very hairs on your heads are all numbered.

wmth@Matthew:10:31 @ Away then with fear; you are more precious than a multitude of sparrows.

wmth@Matthew:11:3 @ »Are you the Coming One, or is it a different person that we are to expect?«

wmth@Matthew:11:5 @ »blind eyes receive sight, and cripples walk; lepers are cleansed, and deaf ears hear; the dead are raised to life, and the poor have the Good News proclaimed to them;«

wmth@Matthew:11:8 @ But what did you go out to see? A man luxuriously dressed? Those who wear luxurious clothes are to be found in kings' palaces.

wmth@Matthew:11:14 @ And (if you are willing to receive it) he is the Elijah who was to come.

wmth@Matthew:11:16 @ »But to what shall I compare the present generation? It is like children sitting in the open places, who call to their playmates.«

wmth@Matthew:12:2 @ But the Pharisees saw it and said to Him, »Look! your disciples are doing what the Law forbids them to do on the Sabbath.«

wmth@Matthew:12:7 @ And if you knew what this means,, you would not have condemned those who are without guilt.

wmth@Matthew:12:15 @ Aware of this, Jesus departed elsewhere; and a great number of people followed Him, all of whom He cured.

wmth@Matthew:12:34 @ O vipers' brood, how can you speak what is good when you are evil? For it is from the overflow of the heart that the mouth speaks.

wmth@Matthew:12:36 @ But I tell you that for every careless word that men shall speak they will be held accountable on the day of Judgement.

wmth@Matthew:12:47 @ So some one told Him, »Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, and desire to speak to you.«

wmth@Matthew:12:48 @ »Who is my mother?« He said to the man; »and who are my brothers?«

wmth@Matthew:12:49 @ And pointing to His disciples He added, »See here are my mother and my brothers.

wmth@Matthew:13:16 @ »But as for you, blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear.«

wmth@Matthew:13:22 @ He who has received the seed among the thorns is the man who hears the Message, but the cares of the present age and the delusions of riches quite stifle the Message, and it becomes unfruitful.

wmth@Matthew:13:23 @ But he who has received the seed on good ground is he who hears and understands. Such hearers give a return, and yield one a hundred for one, another sixty, another thirty.

wmth@Matthew:13:24 @ Another parable He put before them. »The Kingdom of the Heavens,« He said, »may be compared to a man who has sown good seed in his field,

wmth@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world; the good seed–these are the sons of the Kingdom; the darnel, the sons of the Evil one.

wmth@Matthew:13:39 @ The enemy who sows the darnel is; the harvest is the Close of the Age; the reapers are the angels.

wmth@Matthew:13:55 @ Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brothers, James, Joseph, Simon and Judah?

wmth@Matthew:13:56 @ And his sisters–are they not all living here among us? Where then did he get all this?«

wmth@Matthew:14:2 @ and he said to his courtiers, »This is John the Baptist: he has come back to life–and that is why these miraculous Powers are working in him.«

wmth@Matthew:14:33 @ and the men on board fell down before him and said, »You are indeed God's Son.«

wmth@Matthew:14:34 @ When they had quite crossed over, they put ashore at Gennesaret;

wmth@Matthew:15:14 @ Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind; and if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into some pit.«

wmth@Matthew:15:16 @ »Are even you,« He answered, »still without intellingence?

wmth@Matthew:15:20 @ These are the things which defile the man; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile.«

wmth@Matthew:16:4 @ A wicked and faithless generation are eager for a sign; but none shall be given to them except the sign of Jonah.« and He left them and went away.

wmth@Matthew:16:6 @ and when Jesus said to them, »See to it: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees,«

wmth@Matthew:16:8 @ Jesus perceived this and said, »Why are you reasoning among yourselves, you men of little faith, because you have no bread?

wmth@Matthew:16:11 @ How is it you do not understand that it was not about bread that I spoke to you? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.«

wmth@Matthew:16:13 @ When He arrived in the neighbourhood of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus questioned His disciples. »Who do people say that the Son of Man is?« He asked.

wmth@Matthew:16:16 @ »You,« replied Simon Peter, »are the Christ, the Son of the ever-living God.«

wmth@Matthew:16:17 @ »Blessed are you, Simon Bar-jonah,« said Jesus; »for mere human nature has not revealed this to you, but my Father in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:16:18 @ And I declare to you that you are Peter, and that upon this Rock I will build my Church, and the might of Hades shall not triumph over it.

wmth@Matthew:16:23 @ But He turned and said to Peter, »Get behind me, Adversary; you are a hindrance to me, because your thoughts are not God's thoughts, but men's.«

wmth@Matthew:16:28 @ I solemnly tell you that some of those who are standing here will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom.«

wmth@Matthew:17:3 @ And suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared to them conversing with Him.

wmth@Matthew:17:4 @ Then Peter said to Jesus, »Master, we are thankful to you that we are here. If you approve, I will put up three tents here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.«

wmth@Matthew:17:20 @ »Because your faith is so small,« He replied; »for I solemnly declare to you that if you have faith like a mustard-seed, you shall say to this mountain, `Remove from this place to that,' and it will remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

wmth@Matthew:18:10 @ »Beware of ever despising one of these little ones, for I tell you that in Heaven their angels have continual access to my Father who is in Heaven.«

wmth@Matthew:18:15 @ »If your brother acts wrongly towards you, go and point out his fault to him when only you and he are there. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.«

wmth@Matthew:18:20 @ For where there are two or three assembled in my name, there am I in the midst of them.«

wmth@Matthew:18:23 @ »For this reason the Kingdom of the Heavens may be compared to a king who determined to have a settlement of accounts with his servants.«

wmth@Matthew:19:6 @ Thus they are no longer two, but `one'! What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.«

wmth@Matthew:19:12 @ There are men who from their birth have been disabled from marriage, others who have been so disabled by men, and others who have disabled themselves for the sake of the Kingdom of the Heavens. He who is able to receive this, let him receive it.«

wmth@Matthew:19:14 @ Jesus however said, »Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them; for it is to those who are childlike that the Kingdom of the Heavens belongs.«

wmth@Matthew:19:20 @ »All of these,« said the young man, »I have carefully kept. What do I still lack?«

wmth@Matthew:19:30 @ »But many who are now first will be last, and many who are now last will be first.«

wmth@Matthew:20:15 @ Have I not a right to do what I choose with my own property? Or are you envious because I am generous?'

wmth@Matthew:20:18 @ »We are going up to Jerusalem, and there the Son of Man will be betrayed to the High Priests and Scribes. They will condemn Him to death,«

wmth@Matthew:20:22 @ »None of you know what you are asking for,« said Jesus; »can you drink out of the cup from which I am about to drink?«»We can,« they replied.

wmth@Matthew:20:23 @ »You shall drink out of my cup,« He said, »but a seat at my right hand or at my left it is not for me to allot, but it belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.«

wmth@Matthew:21:11 @ »This is Jesus, the Prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee,« replied the crowds.

wmth@Matthew:21:13 @ »It is written,« He said, but you are making it

wmth@Matthew:21:16 @ »Do you hear,« they asked Him, »what these children are saying?«»Yes,« He replied; »have you never read,

wmth@Matthew:21:23 @ He entered the Temple; and while He was teaching, the High Priests and the Elders of the people came to Him and asked Him, »By what authority are you doing these things? and who gave you this authority?«

wmth@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two did as his father desired?« »The first,« they said. `I solemnly tell you,' replied Jesus, «that the tax-gatherers and the notorious sinners are entering the Kingdom of God in front of you.

wmth@Matthew:21:34 @ When vintage-time approached, he sent his servants to the vine-dressers to receive his share of the grapes;

wmth@Matthew:22:2 @ »The Kingdom of the Heavens,« He said, »may be compared to a king who celebrated the marriage of his son,

wmth@Matthew:22:4 @ »Again he sent other servants with a message to those who were invited.« `My breakfast is now ready,' he said, `my bullocks and fat cattle are killed, and every preparation is made: come to the wedding.'

wmth@Matthew:22:14 @ »For there are many called, but few chosen.«

wmth@Matthew:22:16 @ So they sent to Him their disciples together with the Herodians; who said, »Teacher, we know that you are truthful and that you faithfully teach God's truth; and that no fear of man misleads you, for you are not biased by men's wealth or rank.

wmth@Matthew:22:18 @ Perceiving their wickedness, Jesus replied, »Why are you hypocrites trying to ensnare me?

wmth@Matthew:22:29 @ The reply of Jesus was, »You are in error, through ignorance of the Scriptures and of the power of God.

wmth@Matthew:22:30 @ For in the Resurrection, men neither marry nor are women given in marriage, but they are like angels in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:23:8 @ »As for you, do not accept the title of `Rabbi,' for one alone is your Teacher, and you are all brothers.«

wmth@Matthew:23:13 @ »But alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for you lock the door of the Kingdom of the Heavens against men; you yourselves do not enter, nor do you allow those to enter who are seeking to do so.«

wmth@Matthew:23:19 @ »You are blind! Why, which is greater? –the offering, or the altar which makes the offering holy?«

wmth@Matthew:23:25 @ »Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for you wash clean the outside of the cup or dish, while within they are full of greed and self-indulgence.«

wmth@Matthew:23:27 @ »Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for you are just like whitewashed sepulchres, the outside of which pleases the eye, though inside they are full of dead men's bones and of all that is unclean.«

wmth@Matthew:23:28 @ The same is true of you: outwardly you seem to the human eye to be good and honest men, but, within, you are full of insincerity and disregard of God's Law.

wmth@Matthew:23:31 @ »So that you bear witness against yourselves that you are descendants of those who murdered the Prophets.«

wmth@Matthew:23:33 @ O serpents, O vipers' brood, how are you to escape condemnation to Gehenna?

wmth@Matthew:24:4 @ »Take care that no one misleads you,« answered Jesus;

wmth@Matthew:24:8 @ but all these miseries are but like the early pains of childbirth.

wmth@Matthew:24:9 @ »At that time they will deliver you up to punishment and will put you to death; and you will be objects of hatred to all the nations because you are called by my name.«

wmth@Matthew:24:16 @ »then let those who are in Judaea escape to the hills;«

wmth@Matthew:24:19 @ And alas for the women who at that time are with child or have infants!

wmth@Matthew:25:8 @ »`Give us some of your oil,' said the foolish ones to the wise, `for our torches are going out.'«

wmth@Matthew:25:14 @ »Why, it is like a man who, when going on his travels, called his bondservants and entrusted his property to their care.«

wmth@Matthew:25:21 @ »`You have done well, good and trustworthy servant,' replied his master; `you have been trustworthy in the management of a little, I will put you in charge of much: share your master's joy.'«

wmth@Matthew:25:23 @ »`Good and trustworthy servant, you have done well,' his master replied; `you have been trustworthy in the management of a little, I will put you in charge of much: share your master's joy.'«

wmth@Matthew:25:41 @ »Then will He say to those at His left,« `Begone from me, with the curse resting upon you, into the Fire of the Ages, which has been prepared for the Devil and his angels.

wmth@Matthew:26:10 @ But Jesus heard it, and said to them, »Why are you vexing her? For she has done a most gracious act towards me.

wmth@Matthew:26:12 @ In pouring this ointment over me, her object was to prepare me for burial.

wmth@Matthew:26:15 @ and said, »What are you willing to give me if I betray him to you?« So they weighed out to him thirty shekels,

wmth@Matthew:26:35 @ »Even if I must die with you,« declared Peter, »I will never disown you.« In like manner protested all the disciples.

wmth@Matthew:26:54 @ In that case how are the Scriptures to be fulfilled which declare that thus it must be?«

wmth@Matthew:26:62 @ Then the High Priest stood up and asked Him, »Have you no answer to make? What is it these men are saying in evidence against you?«

wmth@Matthew:26:63 @ Jesus however remained silent. Again the High Priest addressed Him. »In the name of the ever-living God,« he said, »I now put you on your oath. Tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.«

wmth@Matthew:26:71 @ Soon afterwards he went out and stood in the gateway, when another girl saw him, and said, addressing the people there, »This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.«

wmth@Matthew:26:73 @ A short time afterwards the people standing there came and said to Peter, »Certainly you too are one of them, for your brogue shows it.«

wmth@Matthew:26:74 @ Then with curses and oaths he declared, »I do not know the man.« Immediately a cock crowed,

wmth@Matthew:27:11 @ Meanwhile Jesus was brought before the Governor, and the latter put the question, »Are you the King of the Jews?« »I am their King,« He answered.

wmth@Matthew:27:13 @ »Do you not hear,« asked Pilate, »what a mass of evidence they are bringing against you?«

wmth@Matthew:27:40 @ and said, »You who would pull down the Sanctuary and build a new one within three days, save yourself. If you are God's Son, come down from the cross.«

wmth@Matthew:28:5 @ But the angel said to the women, »As for you, dismiss your fears. I know that it is Jesus that you are looking for–the crucified One.

wmth@Mark:1:9 @ At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan;

wmth@Mark:1:24 @ »What have you to do with us, Jesus the Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are–God's Holy One.«

wmth@Mark:1:40 @ One day there came a leper to Jesus entreating Him, and pleading on his knees. »If you are willing,« he said, »you are able to cleanse me.«

wmth@Mark:1:44 @ and saying, »Be careful not to tell any one, but go and show yourself to the Priest, and for your purification present the offerings that Moses appointed as evidence for them.«

wmth@Mark:2:5 @ Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, »My son, your sins are pardoned.«

wmth@Mark:2:9 @ Which is easier?–to say to this paralytic, `Your sins are pardoned,' or to say, `Rise, take up your mat, and walk?'

wmth@Mark:2:18 @ (Now John's disciples and those of the Pharisees were keeping a fast.) And they came and asked Him, »How is it that John's disciples and those of the Pharisees are fasting, and yours are not?«

wmth@Mark:2:24 @ So the Pharisees said to Him, »Look! why are they doing what on the Sabbath is unlawful?«

wmth@Mark:2:26 @ how he entered the house of God in the High-priesthood of Abiathar, and ate the Presented Loaves –which none but the priests are allowed to eat– and gave some to his men also?«

wmth@Mark:3:4 @ Then He asked them, »Are we allowed to do good on the Sabbath, or to do evil? to save a life, or to destroy one?« They remained silent.

wmth@Mark:3:11 @ And the foul spirits, whenever they saw Him, threw themselves down at His feet, screaming out:»You are the Son of God.«

wmth@Mark:3:32 @ Now a crowd was sitting round Him; so they tell Him, »Your mother and your brothers and sisters are outside, inquiring for you.«

wmth@Mark:3:33 @ »Who are my mother and my brothers?« He replied.

wmth@Mark:3:35 @ »Here are my mother and my brothers. For wherever there is one who has been obedient to God, there is my brother –my sister– and my mother.«

wmth@Mark:4:15 @ Those who receive the seed by the way-side are those in whom the Message is sown, but, when they have heard it, Satan comes at once and carries away the Message sown in them.

wmth@Mark:4:16 @ In the same way those who receive the seed on the rocky places are those who, when they have heard the Message, at once accept it joyfully,

wmth@Mark:4:17 @ but they have no root within them. They last for a time; then, when suffering or persecution comes because of the Message, they are immediately overthrown.

wmth@Mark:4:18 @ Others there are who receive the seed among the thorns: these are they who have heard the Message,

wmth@Mark:4:19 @ but worldly cares and the deceitfulness of wealth and the excessive pursuit of other objects come in and stifle the Message, and it becomes unfruitful.

wmth@Mark:4:20 @ Those, on the other hand, who have received the seed on the good ground, are all who hear the Message and welcome it, and yield a return of thirty, sixty, or a hundred fold.«

wmth@Mark:4:24 @ He also said to them, »Take care what you hear. With what measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and that with interest.

wmth@Mark:4:30 @ Another saying of His was this: »How are we to picture the Kingdom of God? or by what figure of speech shall we represent it?

wmth@Mark:4:38 @ But He Himself was in the stern asleep, with His head on the cushion: so they woke Him. »Rabbi,« they cried, »is it nothing to you that we are drowning?«

wmth@Mark:4:40 @ »Why are you so timid?« He asked; »have you still no faith?«

wmth@Mark:5:9 @ Jesus also questioned him. »What is your name?« He said. »Legion,« he replied, »for there are a host of us.«

wmth@Mark:6:2 @ On the Sabbath He proceeded to teach in the synagogue; and many, as they heard Him, were astonished. »Where did he acquire all this?« they asked. »What is this wisdom that has been given to him? And what are these marvellous miracles which his hands perform?

wmth@Mark:6:14 @ King Herod heard of all this (for the name of Jesus had become widely known), and he kept saying, »John the Baptizer has come back to life, and that is why these miraculous Powers are working in him.«

wmth@Mark:6:37 @ »Give them food yourselves,« He replied. »Are we,« they asked, `to go and buy two hundred shillings' worth of bread and give them food?«

wmth@Mark:6:46 @ He then bade the people farewell, and went away up the hill to pray.

wmth@Mark:6:53 @ Having crossed over they drew to land in Gennesaret and came to anchor.

wmth@Mark:7:3 @ (For the Pharisees and all the Jews– being, as they are, zealous for the traditions of the Elders– never eat without first carefully washing their hands,

wmth@Mark:8:17 @ He perceived what they were saying, and He said to them, »What is this discussion of yours about having no bread? Do you not yet see and understand? Are your minds so dull of comprehension?

wmth@Romans:2:14 @ For when Gentiles who have no Law obey by natural instinct the commands of the Law, they, without having a Law, are a Law to themselves;

wmth@Romans:2:16 @ on the day when God will judge the secrets of men's lives by Jesus Christ, as declared in the Good News as I have taught it.

wmth@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision does indeed profit, if you obey the Law; but if you are a Law-breaker, the fact that you have been circumcised counts for nothing.

wmth@Romans:2:27 @ although he is a Gentile by birth, if he scrupulously obeys the Law, shall he not sit in judgement upon you who, possessing, as you do, a written Law and circumcision, are yet a Law-breaker?

wmth@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness sets God's righteousness in a clearer light, what shall we say? (Is God unrighteous –I speak in our everyday language– when He inflicts punishment?

wmth@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we Jews more highly estimated than they? Not in the least; for we have already charged all Jews and Gentiles alike with being in thraldom to sin.

wmth@Romans:3:14 @ »Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.«

wmth@Romans:3:19 @ But it cannot be denied that all that the Law says is addressed to those who are living under the Law, in order that every mouth may be stopped, and that the whole world may await sentence from God.

wmth@Romans:4:12 @ and the forefather of the circumcised, namely of those who not merely are circumcised, but also walk in the steps of the faith which our forefather Abraham had while he was as yet uncircumcised.

wmth@Romans:4:17 @ so that the promise should be made sure to all Abraham's true descendants; not merely to those who are righteous through the Law, but to those who are righteous through a faith like that of Abraham. Thus in the sight of God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and makes reference to things that do not exist, as though they did, Abraham is the forefather of all of us. As it is written,

wmth@Romans:4:24 @ it was for our sakes too. Faith, before long, will be placed to the credit of us also who are believers in Him who raised Jesus, our Lord, from the dead,

wmth@Romans:5:10 @ For if while we were hostile to God we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, it is still more certain that now that we are reconciled, we shall obtain salvation through Christ's life.

wmth@Romans:6:1 @ To what conclusion, then, shall we come? Are we to persist in sinning in order that the grace extended to us may be the greater?

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

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

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

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

wmth@Romans:7:1 @ Brethren, do you not know –for I am writing to people acquainted with the Law– that it is during our lifetime that we are subject to the Law?

wmth@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus;

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

wmth@Romans:8:8 @ And those whose hearts are absorbed in earthly things cannot please God.

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

wmth@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brethren, it is not to our lower natures that we are under obligation that we should live by their rule.

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

wmth@Romans:8:14 @ For those who are led by God's Spirit are, all of them, God's sons.

wmth@Romans:8:16 @ The Spirit Himself bears witness, along with our own spirits, to the fact that we are children of God;

wmth@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs too–heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ; if indeed we are sharers in Christ's sufferings, in order that we may also be sharers in His glory.

wmth@Romans:8:27 @ and the Searcher of hearts knows what the Spirit's meaning is, because His intercessions for God's people are in harmony with God's will.

wmth@Romans:8:28 @ Now we know that for those who love God all things are working together for good–for those, I mean, whom with deliberate purpose He has called.

wmth@Romans:8:30 @ and those whom He has pre-destined He also has called; and those whom He has called He has also declared free from guilt; and those whom He has declared free from guilt He has also crowned with glory.

wmth@Romans:9:9 @ For the words are the language of promise and run thus,

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

wmth@Romans:9:23 @ in order to make known His infinite goodness towards the subjects of His mercy whom He has prepared beforehand for glory,

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

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

wmth@Romans:10:12 @ Jew and Gentile are on precisely the same footing; for the same Lord is Lord over all, and is infinitely kind to all who call upon Him for deliverance.

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

wmth@Romans:10:15 @ And how are men to preach unless they have been sent to do so? As it is written,

wmth@Romans:11:2 @ God has not cast off His People whom He knew beforehand. Or are you ignorant of what Scripture says in speaking of Elijah–how he pleaded with God against Israel, saying,

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

wmth@Romans:11:16 @ Now if the firstfruits of the dough are holy, so also is the whole mass; and if the root of a tree is holy, so also are the branches.

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

wmth@Romans:11:18 @ beware of glorying over the natural branches. Or if you are so glorying, do not forget that it is not you who uphold the root: the root upholds you.

wmth@Romans:11:21 @ Do not be puffed up with pride. Tremble rather–for if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you.

wmth@Romans:11:26 @ and so all Israel will be saved. As is declared in Scripture,

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

wmth@Romans:11:30 @ but just as you were formerly disobedient to Him, but now have received mercy at a time when they are disobedient,

wmth@Romans:11:31 @ so now they also have been disobedient at a time when you are receiving mercy; so that to them too there may now be mercy.

wmth@Romans:11:33 @ Oh, how inexhaustible are God's resources and God's wisdom and God's knowledge! How impossible it is to search into His decrees or trace His footsteps!

wmth@Romans:12:4 @ For just as there are in the one human body many parts, and these parts have not all the same function;

wmth@Romans:12:5 @ so collectively we form one body in Christ, while individually we are linked to one another as its members.

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

wmth@Romans:13:6 @ Why, this is really the reason you pay taxes; for tax-gatherers are ministers of God, devoting their energies to this very work.

wmth@Romans:13:7 @ Pay promptly to all men what is due to them: taxes to those to whom taxes are due, toll to those to whom toll is due, respect to those to whom respect is due, honour to those to whom honour is due.

wmth@Romans:13:9 @ For the precepts, and all other precepts, are summed up in this one command,

wmth@Romans:13:11 @ Carry out these injunctions because you know the critical period at which we are living, and that it is now high time, to rouse yourselves from sleep; for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first became believers.

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

wmth@Romans:14:15 @ If your brother is pained by the food you are eating, your conduct is no longer controlled by love. Take care lest, by the food you eat, you lead to ruin a man for whom Christ died.

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

wmth@Romans:15:1 @ As for us who are strong, our duty is to bear with the weaknesses of those who are not strong, and not seek our own pleasure.

wmth@Romans:15:8 @ My meaning is that Christ has become a servant to the people of Israel in vindication of God's truthfulness –in showing how sure are the promises made to our forefathers–

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

wmth@Romans:15:27 @ Yes, they have kindly done this, and, in fact, it was a debt they owed them. For seeing that the Gentiles have been admitted in to partnership with the Jews in their spiritual blessings, they in turn are under an obligation to render sacred service to the Jews in temporal things.

wmth@Romans:15:28 @ So after discharging this duty, and making sure that these kind gifts reach those for whom they are intended, I shall start for Spain, passing through Rome on my way there;

wmth@Romans:16:7 @ and to Andronicus and Junia, my countrymen, who once shared my imprisonment. They are of note among the Apostles, and are Christians of longer standing than myself.

wmth@Romans:16:17 @ But I beseech you, brethren, to keep a watch on those who are causing the divisions among you, and are leading others into sin, in defiance of the instruction which you have received; and habitually to shun them.

wmth@Romans:16:18 @ For men of that stamp are not bondservants of Christ our Lord, but are slaves to their own appetites; and by their plausible words and their flattery they utterly deceive the minds of the simple.

wmth@Romans:16:25 @ To Him who has it in His power to make you strong, as declared in the Good News which I am spreading, and the proclamation concerning Jesus Christ, in harmony with the unveiling of the Truth which in the periods of past Ages remained unuttered,

wmth@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For I have been distinctly informed, my brethren, about you by Chloe's people, that there are dissensions among you.

wmth@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the Message of the Cross is foolishness to those who are on the way to perdition, but it is the power of God to those whom He is saving.

wmth@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For after the world by its wisdom –as God in His wisdom had ordained– had failed to gain the knowledge of God, God was pleased, by the apparent foolishness of the Message which we preach, to save those who accepted it.

wmth@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For consider, brethren, God's call to you. Not many who are wise with merely human wisdom, not many of position and influence, not many of noble birth have been called.

wmth@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But you –and it is all God's doing– are in Christ Jesus: He has become for us a wisdom which is from God, consisting of righteousness and sanctification and deliverance;

wmth@1Corinthians:2:6 @ Yet when we are among mature believers we do speak words of wisdom; a wisdom not belonging, however, to the present age nor to the leaders of the present age who are soon to pass away.

wmth@1Corinthians:2:14 @ The unspiritual man rejects the things of the Spirit of God, and cannot attain to the knowledge of them, because they are spiritually judged.

wmth@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I fed you with milk and not with solid food, since for this you were not yet strong enough. And even now you are not strong enough:

wmth@1Corinthians:3:3 @ you are still unspiritual. For so long as jealousy and strife continue among you, can it be denied that you are unspiritual and are living and acting like mere men of the world?

wmth@1Corinthians:3:5 @ What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? They are just God's servants, through whose efforts, and as the Lord granted power to each, you accepted the faith.

wmth@1Corinthians:3:8 @ Now in aim and purpose the planter and the waterer are one; and yet each will receive his own special reward, answering to his own special work.

wmth@1Corinthians:3:9 @ Apollos and I are simply fellow workers for and with God, and you are field– building.

wmth@1Corinthians:3:10 @ In discharge of the task which God graciously entrusted to me, I –like a competent master-builder– have laid a foundation, and others are building upon it. But let every one be careful how and what he builds.

wmth@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are God's Sanctuary, and that the Spirit of God has His home within you?

wmth@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If any one is marring the Sanctuary of God, him will God mar; for the Sanctuary of God is holy, which you all are.

wmth@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If any man imagines that he is wise, compared with the rest of you, with the wisdom of the present age, let him become »foolish« so that he may be wise.

wmth@1Corinthians:4:1 @ As for us Apostles, let any one take this view of us–we are Christ's officers, and stewards of God's secret truths.

wmth@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We, for Christ's sake, are labeled as »foolish«; you, as Christians, are men of shrewd intelligence. We are mere weaklings: you are strong. You are in high repute: we are outcasts.

wmth@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you, instead of mourning and removing from among you the man who has done this deed of shame, are filled with self-complacency!

wmth@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are all assembled and my spirit is with you, together with the power of our Lord Jesus,

wmth@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep our festival not with old yeast nor with the yeast of what is evil and mischievous, but with bread free from yeast–the bread of transparent sincerity and of truth.

wmth@1Corinthians:5:10 @ not that in this world you are to keep wholly aloof from such as they, any more than from people who are avaricious and greedy of gain, or from worshippers of idols. For that would mean that you would be compelled to go out of the world altogether.

wmth@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what business of mine is it to judge outsiders? Is it not for you to judge those who are within the Church

wmth@1Corinthians:5:13 @ while you leave to God's judgement those who are outside? Remove the wicked man from among you.

wmth@1Corinthians:6:1 @ If one of you has a grievance against an opponent, does he dare to go to law before irreligious men and not before God's people?

wmth@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that God's people will sit in judgement upon the world? And if you are the court before which the world is to be judged, are you unfit to deal with these petty matters?

wmth@1Corinthians:6:3 @ Do you not know that we are to sit in judgement upon angels–to say nothing of things belonging to this life?

wmth@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If therefore you have things belonging to this life which need to be decided, is it men who are absolutely nothing in the Church–is it whom you make your judges?

wmth@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that unrighteous men will not inherit God's Kingdom? Cherish no delusion here. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor any who are guilty of unnatural crime,

wmth@1Corinthians:6:10 @ nor theives, nor avaricious people, nor any who are addicted to hard drinking, to abusive language or to greed of gain, will inherit God's Kingdom.

wmth@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them the members of a prostitute? No, indeed.

wmth@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Or do you not know that your bodies are a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who is within you–the Spirit whom you have from God?

wmth@1Corinthians:6:20 @ And you are not your own, for you have been redeemed at infinite cost. Therefore glorify God in your bodies.

wmth@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I tell the unmarried, and women who are widows, that it is well for them to remain as I am.

wmth@1Corinthians:7:10 @ But to those already married my instructions are –yet not mine, but the Lord's– that a wife is not to leave her husband;

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

wmth@1Corinthians:8:4 @ As to eating things which have been sacrificed to idols, we are fully aware that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but One.

wmth@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For if so-called gods do exist, either in Heaven or on earth –and in fact there are many such gods and many such lords–

wmth@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But all believers do not recognize these facts. Some, from force of habit in relation to the idol, even now eat idol sacrifices as such, and their consciences, being but weak, are polluted.

wmth@1Corinthians:8:8 @ It is true that a particular kind of food will not bring us into God's presence; we are neither inferior to others if we abstain from it, nor superior to them if we eat it.

wmth@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take care lest this liberty of yours should prove a hindrance to the progress of weak believers.

wmth@1Corinthians:8:12 @ Moreover when you thus sin against the brethren and wound their weak consciences, you are, in reality, sinning against Christ.

wmth@1Corinthians:9:1 @ Am I not free? Am I not an Apostle? Can it be denied that I have seen Jesus, our Lord? Are not you yourselves my work in the Lord?

wmth@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Or again, is it only Barnabas and myself who are not at liberty to give up working with our hands?

wmth@1Corinthians:9:13 @ Do you not know that those who perform the sacred rites have their food from the sacred place, and that those who serve at the altar all alike share with the altar?

wmth@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What are my wages then? The very fact that the Good News which I preach will cost my hearers nothing, so that I cannot be charged with abuse of my privileges as a Christian preacher.

wmth@1Corinthians:9:20 @ To the Jews I have become like a Jew in order to win Jews; to men under the Law as if I were under the Law –although I am not– in order to win those who are under the Law;

wmth@1Corinthians:9:21 @ to men without Law as if I were without Law –although I am not without Law in relation to God but am abiding in Christ's Law– in order to win those who are without Law.

wmth@1Corinthians:9:23 @ And I do everything for the sake of the Good News, that I may share with my hearers in its benefits.

wmth@1Corinthians:10:12 @ So then let him who thinks he is standing securely beware of falling.

wmth@1Corinthians:10:17 @ Since there is one loaf, we who are many are one body; we, all of us, share in that one loaf.

wmth@1Corinthians:10:18 @ Look at the Israelites–the nation and their ritual. Are not those who eat the sacrifices joint-partakers in the altar?

wmth@1Corinthians:10:22 @ Or are we actually arousing the Lord to jealousy. Are we stronger than He is?

wmth@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If an unbeliever gives you an invitation and you are disposed to accept it, eat whatever is put before you, and ask no questions for conscience' sake.

wmth@1Corinthians:10:31 @ Whether, then, you are eating or drinking, or whatever you are doing, let everything be done to the glory of God.

wmth@1Corinthians:11:18 @ for, in the first place, when you meet as a Church, there are divisions among you. This is what I am told, and I believe that there is some truth in it.

wmth@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must of necessity be differences of opinion among you, in order that it may be plainly seen who are the men of sterling worth among you.

wmth@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For every time that you eat this bread and drink from the cup, you are proclaiming the Lord's death–until He returns.

wmth@1Corinthians:11:30 @ That is why many among you are sickly and out of health, and why not a few die.

wmth@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged by the Lord, chastisement follows, to save us from being condemned along with the world.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:4 @ Now there are various kinds of gifts, but there is one and the same Spirit;

wmth@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But these results are all brought about by one and the same Spirit, who bestows His gifts upon each of us in accordance with His own will.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For just as the human body is one and yet has many parts, and all its parts, many as they are, constitute but one body, so it is with the Church of Christ.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For, in fact, in one Spirit all of us –whether we are Jews or Gentiles, slaves or free men– were baptized to form but one body; and we were all nourished by that one Spirit.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But, as a matter of fact, there are many parts and but one body.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:22 @ No, it is quite otherwise. Even those parts of the body which are apparently somewhat feeble are yet indispensable;

wmth@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there might be no disunion in the body, but that all the members might entertain the same anxious care for one another's welfare.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one part is suffering, every other part suffers with it; or if one part is receiving special honor, every other part shares in the joy.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:27 @ As for you, you are the body of Christ, and individually you are members of it.

wmth@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And by God's appointment there are in the Church–first Apostles, secondly Prophets, thirdly teachers. Then come miraculous powers, and then ability to cure diseases or render loving service, or powers of organization, or varieties of the gift of `tongues.'

wmth@1Corinthians:12:29 @ Are all Apostles? Are all Prophets? Are all teachers?

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

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

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

wmth@1Corinthians:14:8 @ If the bugle –to take another example– gives an uncertain sound, who will prepare for battle?

wmth@1Corinthians:14:9 @ And so with you; if with the living voice you fail to utter intelligible words, how will people know what you are saying? You will be talking to the winds.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, we will suppose, a great number of languages in the world, and no creature is without a language.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Therefore, seeing that you are ambitious for spiritual gifts, seek to excel in them so as to benefit the Church.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:17 @ Rightly enough you are giving thanks, and yet your neighbor is not benefited.

wmth@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Accordingly if the whole Church has assembled and all are speaking in `tongues,' and there come in ungifted men, or unbelievers, will they not say that you are all mad?

wmth@1Corinthians:14:25 @ and the hidden evils of his heart are brought to light. And, as the result, he will fall on his face and worship God, and will report to others that of a truth God is among you.

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

wmth@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let married women be silent in the Churches, for they are not permitted to speak. They must be content with a subordinate place, as the Law also says;

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

wmth@1Corinthians:15:2 @ through which also you are obtaining salvation, if you bear in mind the words in which I proclaimed it–unless indeed your faith has been unreal from the very first.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:8 @ And last of all, as to one of untimely birth, He appeared to me also.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:15 @ Nay more, we are actually being discovered to be bearing false witness about God, because we have testified that God raised Christ to life, whom He did not raise, if in reality none of the dead are raised.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if none of the dead are raised to life, then Christ has not risen;

wmth@1Corinthians:15:17 @ and if Christ has not risen, your faith is a vain thing–you are still in your sins.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If in this present life we have a resting on Christ, and nothing more, we are more to be pitied than all the rest of the world.

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

wmth@1Corinthians:15:27 @ for He will have put all things in subjection under His feet. And when He shall have declared that »All things are in subjection,« it will be with the manifest exception of Him who has reduced them all to subjection to Him.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise what will become of those who got themselves baptized for the dead? If the dead do not rise at all, why are these baptized for them?

wmth@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If from merely human motives I have fought with wild beasts in Ephesus, what profit is it to me? If the dead do not rise, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we are to die.

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

wmth@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are bodies which are celestial and there are bodies which are earthly, but the glory of the celestial ones is one thing, and that of the earthly ones is another.

wmth@1Corinthians:15:48 @ What the earthy one is, that also are those who are earthy; and what the heavenly One is, that also are those who are heavenly.

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

wmth@1Corinthians:16:17 @ It is a joy to me that Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus have now arrived, because what was wanting so far as you are concerned they have supplied.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:4 @ He comforts us in our every affliction so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any kind of affliction by means of the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:5 @ For just as we have more than our share of suffering for the Christ, so also through the Christ we have more than our share of comfort.

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

wmth@2Corinthians:1:7 @ And our hope for you is stedfast; for we know that as you are partners with us in the sufferings, so you are also partners in the comfort.

wmth@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we are writing to you nothing different from what we have written before, or from what indeed you already recognize as truth and will, I trust, recognize as such to the very end;

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

wmth@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we want to lord it over you in respect of your faith –we do, however, desire to help your joy– for in the matter of your faith you are standing firm.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For in writing to you I have also this object in view–to discover by experience whether you are prepared to be obedient in every respect.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:11 @ for fear Satan should gain an advantage over us. For we are not ignorant of his devices.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:13 @ yet, obtaining no relief for my spirit because I did not find our brother Titus, I bade them farewell and went on into Macedonia.

wmth@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are a fragrance of Christ grateful to God in those whom He is saving and in those who are perishing;

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

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

wmth@2Corinthians:3:5 @ not that of ourselves we are competent to decide anything by our own reasonings, but our competency comes from God.

wmth@2Corinthians:3:18 @ And all of us, with unveiled faces, reflecting like bright mirrors the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same likeness, from one degree of radiant holiness to another, even as derived from the Lord the Spirit.

wmth@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore, being engaged in this service and being mindful of the mercy which has been shown us, we are not cowards.

wmth@2Corinthians:4:3 @ If, however, the meaning of our Good News has been veiled, the veil has been on the hearts of those who are on the way to perdition,

wmth@2Corinthians:4:8 @ We are hard pressed, yet never in absolute distress; perplexed, yet never utterly baffled;

wmth@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we, alive though we are, are continually surrendering ourselves to death for the sake of Jesus, so that in this mortal nature of ours it may also be clearly shown that Jesus lives.

wmth@2Corinthians:4:12 @ Thus we are constantly dying, while you are in full enjoyment of Life.

wmth@2Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore we are not cowards. Nay, even though our outward man is wasting away, yet our inward man is being renewed day by day.

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

wmth@2Corinthians:5:4 @ Yes, we who are in this tent certainly do sigh under our burdens, for we do not wish to lay aside that with which we are now clothed, but to put on more, so that our mortality may be absorbed in Life.

wmth@2Corinthians:5:6 @ We have therefore a cheerful confidence. We know that while we are at home in the body we are banished from the Lord;

wmth@2Corinthians:5:7 @ for we are living a life of faith, and not one of sight.

wmth@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, because we realize how greatly the Lord is to be feared, we are endeavouring to win men over, and God recognizes what our motives are, and I hope that you, in your hearts, recognize them too.

wmth@2Corinthians:6:9 @ as obscure persons, and yet are well known; as on the point of death, and yet, strange to tell, we live; as under God's discipline, and yet we are not deprived of life;

wmth@2Corinthians:6:10 @ as sad, but we are always joyful; as poor, but we bestow wealth on many; as having nothing, and yet we securely possess all things.

wmth@2Corinthians:6:11 @ O Corinthians, our lips are unsealed to you: our heart is expanded.

wmth@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what compact has the Temple of God with idols? For are the Temple of the ever-living God; as God has said,

wmth@2Corinthians:8:4 @ With earnest entreaty they begged from us the favour of being allowed to share in the service now being rendered to God's people.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:7 @ Yes, just as you are already very rich in faith, readiness of speech, knowledge, unwearied zeal, and in the love that is in you, implanted by us, see to it that this grace of liberal giving also flourishes in you.

wmth@2Corinthians:8:13 @ I do not urge you to give in order that others may have relief while you are unduly pressed,

wmth@2Corinthians:8:18 @ And we send with him the brother whose praises for his earnestness in proclaiming the Good News are heard throughout all the Churches.

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

wmth@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, remember that he is a partner with me, and is my comrade in my labours for you. And as for our brethren, remember that they are delegates from the Churches, and are men in whom Christ is glorified.

wmth@2Corinthians:9:1 @ As to the services which are being rendered to God's people, it is really unnecessary for me to write to you.

wmth@2Corinthians:9:4 @ for fear that, if any Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we –not to say you yourselves– should be put to the blush in respect to this confidence.

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

wmth@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beseech you not to compel me when present to make a bold display of the confidence with which I reckon I shall show my `courage' against some who reckon that we are guided by worldly principles.

wmth@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For, though we are still living in the world, it is no worldly warfare that we are waging.

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

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

wmth@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such people take this into their reckoning, that whatever we are in word by our letters when absent, the same are we also in act when present.

wmth@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we have not the `courage' to rank ourselves among, or compare ourselves with, certain persons distinguished by their self-commendation. Yet they are not wise, measuring themselves, as they do, by one another and comparing themselves with one another.

wmth@2Corinthians:11:4 @ If indeed some visitor is proclaiming among you another Jesus whom we did not proclaim, or if you are receiving a Spirit different from the One you have already received or a Good News different from that which you have already welcomed, your toleration is admirable!

wmth@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For men of this stamp are sham apostles, dishonest workmen, assuming the garb of Apostles of Christ.

wmth@2Corinthians:11:19 @ Wise as you yourselves are, you find pleasure in tolerating fools.

wmth@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.

wmth@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as if I were out of my mind.) Much more am I His servant; serving Him more thoroughly than they by my labours, and more thoroughly also by my imprisonments, by excessively cruel floggings, and with risk of life many a time.

wmth@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor under King Aretas kept guards at the gates of the city in order to apprehend me,

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

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

wmth@2Corinthians:13:2 @ Those who cling to their old sins, and indeed all of you, I have forewarned and still forewarn (as I did on my second visit when present, so I do now, though absent) that, when I come again, I shall not spare you;

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

wmth@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Test yourselves to discover whether you are true believers: put your own selves under examination. Or do you not know that Jesus Christ is within you, unless you are insincere?

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

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

wmth@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brethren who are with me: To the Churches of Galatia.

wmth@Galatians:1:6 @ I marvel that you are so readily leaving Him who called you by the grace of Christ, and are adhering to a different Good News.

wmth@Galatians:1:7 @ For other »Good News« there is none; but there are some persons who are troubling you, and are seeking to distort the Good News concerning Christ.

wmth@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my early career in Judaism–how I furiously persecuted the Church of God, and made havoc of it;

wmth@Galatians:2:14 @ As soon as I saw that they were not walking uprightly in the spirit of the Good News, I said to Peter, before them all, »If you, though you are a Jew, live as a Gentile does, and not as a Jew, how can you make the Gentiles follow Jewish customs?

wmth@Galatians:2:15 @ You and I, though we are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners,

wmth@Galatians:2:16 @ know that it is not through obedience to Law that a man can be declared free from guilt, but only through faith in Jesus Christ. We have therefore believed in Christ Jesus, for the purpose of being declared free from guilt, through faith in Christ and not through obedience to Law. For through obedience to Law no human being shall be declared free from guilt.

wmth@Galatians:2:17 @ But if while we are seeking in Christ acquittal from guilt we ourselves are convicted of sin, Christ then encourages us to sin! No, indeed.

wmth@Galatians:3:3 @ Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now going to reach perfection through what is external?

wmth@Galatians:3:7 @ Notice therefore that those who possess faith are true sons of Abraham.

wmth@Galatians:3:8 @ And the Scripture, foreseeing that in consequence of faith God would declare the nations to be free from guilt, sent beforehand the Good News to Abraham, saying,

wmth@Galatians:3:9 @ So we see that it is those who possess faith that are blessed with believing Abraham.

wmth@Galatians:3:10 @ All who are depending upon their own obedience to the Law are under a curse, for it is written,

wmth@Galatians:3:22 @ But Scripture has shown that all mankind are the prisoners of sin, in order that the promised blessing, which depends on faith in Jesus Christ, may be given to those who believe.

wmth@Galatians:3:24 @ So that the Law has acted the part of a tutor-slave to lead us to Christ, in order that through faith we may be declared to be free from guilt.

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

wmth@Galatians:3:26 @ You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus;

wmth@Galatians:3:28 @ In Him the distinctions between Jew and Gentile, slave and free man, male and female, disappear; you are all one in Christ Jesus.

wmth@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you belong to Christ, then you are indeed true descendants of Abraham, and are heirs in fulfilment of the promise.

wmth@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of His Son to enter your hearts and cry »Abba! our Father!«

wmth@Galatians:4:7 @ Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir also through God's own act.

wmth@Galatians:4:9 @ Now, however, having come to know God –or rather to be known by Him– how is it you are again turning back to weak and worthless rudimentary notions to which you are once more willing to be enslaved?

wmth@Galatians:4:28 @ But you, brethren, like Isaac, are children born in fulfilment of a promise.

wmth@Galatians:4:31 @ Therefore, brethren, since we are not the children of a slave-girl, but of the free woman–

wmth@Galatians:5:4 @ Christ has become nothing to any of you who are seeking acceptance with God through the Law: you have fallen away from grace.

wmth@Galatians:5:12 @ Would to God that those who are unsettling your faith would even mutilate themselves.

wmth@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you are perpetually snarling and snapping at one another, beware lest you are destroyed by one another.

wmth@Galatians:5:17 @ For the cravings of the lower nature are opposed to those of the Spirit, and the cravings of the Spirit are opposed to those of the lower nature; because these are antagonistic to each other, so that you cannot do everything to which you are inclined.

wmth@Galatians:5:18 @ But if the Spirit is leading you, you are not subject to Law.

wmth@Galatians:5:21 @ hard drinking, riotous feasting, and the like. And as to these I forewarn you, as I have already forewarned you, that those who are guilty of such things will have no share in the Kingdom of God.

wmth@Galatians:5:25 @ If we are living by the Spirit's power, let our conduct also be governed by the Spirit's power.

wmth@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if anybody be detected in any misconduct, you who are spiritual should restore such a one in a spirit of meekness. And let each of you keep watch over himself, lest he also fall into temptation.

wmth@Galatians:6:6 @ But let those who receive instruction in Christian truth share with their instructors all temporal blessings.

wmth@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God: To God's people who are in Ephesus–believers in Christ Jesus.

wmth@Ephesians:1:10 @ for the government of the world when the times are ripe for it–the purpose which He has cherished in His own mind of restoring the whole creation to find its one Head in Christ; yes, things in Heaven and things on earth, to find their one Head in Him.

wmth@Ephesians:2:2 @ which were once habitual to you while you walked in the ways of this world and obeyed the Prince of the powers of the air, the spirits that are now at work in the hearts of the sons of disobedience–to you God has given Life.

wmth@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are God's own handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good works which He has pre-destined us to practise.

wmth@Ephesians:2:12 @ At that time you were living apart from Christ, estranged from the Commonwealth of Israel, with no share by birth in the Covenants which are based on the Promises, and you had no hope and no God, in all the world.

wmth@Ephesians:2:19 @ You are therefore no longer mere foreigners or persons excluded from civil rights. On the contrary you share citizenship with God's people and are members of His family.

wmth@Ephesians:2:20 @ You are a building which has been reared on the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, the cornerstone being Christ Jesus Himself,

wmth@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are being built up together to become a fixed abode for God through the Spirit.

wmth@Ephesians:3:6 @ I mean the truth that the Gentiles are joint heirs with us Jews, and that they form one body with us, and have the same interest as we have in the promise which has been made good in Christ Jesus through the Good News,

wmth@Ephesians:4:18 @ with darkened understandings, having by reason of the ignorance which is deep-seated in them and the insensibility of their moral nature, no share in the Life which God gives.

wmth@Ephesians:4:20 @ But these are not the lessons which you have learned from Christ;

wmth@Ephesians:4:25 @ For this reason, laying aside falsehood, every one of you should speak the truth to his fellow man; for we are, as it were, parts of one another.

wmth@Ephesians:4:26 @ If angry, beware of sinning. Let not your irritation last until the sun goes down;

wmth@Ephesians:4:28 @ He who has been a thief must steal no more, but, instead of that, should work with his own hands in honest industry, so that he may have something of which he can give the needy a share.

wmth@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no unwholesome words ever pass your lips, but let all your words be good for benefiting others according to the need of the moment, so that they may be a means of blessing to the hearers.

wmth@Ephesians:4:30 @ And beware of grieving the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you have been sealed in preparation for the day of Redemption.

wmth@Ephesians:5:4 @ Avoid shameful and foolish talk and low jesting –they are all alike discreditable– and in place of these give thanks.

wmth@Ephesians:5:5 @ For be well assured that no fornicator or immoral person and no money-grubber –or in other words idol-worshipper– has any share awaiting him in the Kingdom of Christ and of God.

wmth@Ephesians:5:7 @ Therefore do not become sharers with them.

wmth@Ephesians:5:8 @ There was a time when you were nothing but darkness. Now, as Christians, you are Light itself.

wmth@Ephesians:5:12 @ for the things which are done by these people in secret it is disgraceful even to speak of.

wmth@Ephesians:5:15 @ Therefore be very careful how you live and act. Let it not be as unwise men, but as wise.

wmth@Ephesians:5:16 @ Buy up your opportunities, for these are evil times.

wmth@Ephesians:5:30 @ because we are, as it were, parts of His Body.

wmth@Ephesians:6:1 @ Children, be obedient to your parents as a Christian duty, for it is a duty.

wmth@Ephesians:6:6 @ Let it not be in acts of eye-service as if you had but to please men, but as Christ's bondservants who are doing God's will from the heart.

wmth@Ephesians:6:9 @ And you masters, act towards your slaves on the same principles, and refrain from threats. For you know that in Heaven there is One who is your Master as well as theirs, and that merely earthly distinctions there are none with Him.

wmth@Ephesians:6:12 @ For ours is not a conflict with mere flesh and blood, but with the despotisms, the empires, the forces that control and govern this dark world–the spiritual hosts of evil arrayed against us in the heavenly warfare.

wmth@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, bondservants of Christ Jesus: To all God's people in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the ministers of the Church and their assistants.

wmth@Philippians:1:7 @ And I am justified in having this confidence about you all, because, both during my imprisonment and when I stand up in defence of the Good News or to confirm its truth, I have you in my heart, sharers as you all are in the same grace as myself.

wmth@Philippians:1:10 @ so that you may be men of transparent character, and may be blameless, in preparation for the day of Christ,

wmth@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed actually preach Christ out of envy and contentiousness but there are also others who do it from good will.

wmth@Philippians:1:17 @ while the others proclaim Him from motives of rivalry, and insincerely, supposing that by this they are embittering my imprisonment.

wmth@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let the lives you live be worthy of the Good News of the Christ, in order that, whether I come and see you or, being absent, only hear of you, I may know that you are standing fast in one spirit and with one mind, fighting shoulder to shoulder for the faith of the Good News.

wmth@Philippians:2:15 @ so that you may always prove yourselves to be blameless and spotless–irreproachable children of God in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as heavenly lights in the world,

wmth@Philippians:2:18 @ And I bid you also share my gladness, and congratulate me.

wmth@Philippians:2:20 @ For I have no one likeminded with him, who will cherish a genuine care for you.

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

wmth@Philippians:3:1 @ In conclusion, my brethren, be joyful in the Lord. For me to give you the same warnings as before is not irksome to me, while so far as you are concerned it is a safe precaution.

wmth@Philippians:3:2 @ Beware of `the dogs,' the bad workmen, the self-mutilators.

wmth@Philippians:3:3 @ For we are the true circumcision–we who render to God a spiritual worship and make our boast in Christ Jesus and have no confidence in outward ceremonies:

wmth@Philippians:3:10 @ I long to know Christ and the power which is in His resurrection, and to share in His sufferings and die even as He died;

wmth@Philippians:3:15 @ Therefore let all of us who are mature believers cherish these thoughts; and if in any respect you think differently, that also God will make clear to you.

wmth@Philippians:3:17 @ Brethren, vie with one another in imitating me, and carefully observe those who follow the example which we have set you.

wmth@Philippians:3:18 @ For there are many whom I have often described to you, and I now even with tears describe them, as being enemies to the Cross of Christ.

wmth@Philippians:3:19 @ Their end is destruction, their bellies are their God, their glory is in their shame, and their minds are devoted to earthly things.

wmth@Philippians:3:20 @ We, however, are free citizens of Heaven, and we are waiting with longing expectation for the coming from Heaven of a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ,

wmth@Philippians:4:3 @ Yes, and I beg you also, my faithful yoke-fellow, to help these women who have shared my toil in connection with the Good News, together with Clement and the rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are recorded in the Book of Life.

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

wmth@Philippians:4:14 @ Yet I thank you for taking your share in my troubles.

wmth@Philippians:4:18 @ I have enough of everything –and more than enough. My wants are fully satisfied now that I have received from the hands of Epaphroditus the generous gifts which you sent me– they are a fragrant odor, an acceptable sacrifice, truly pleasing to God.

wmth@Philippians:4:21 @ My Christian greetings to every one of God's people. The brethren who are with me send their greetings.

wmth@Colossians:1:2 @ To the people of God and the believing brethren at Colossae who are in Christ. May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father.

wmth@Colossians:1:11 @ Since His power is so glorious, may you be strengthened with strength of every kind, and be prepared for cheerfully enduring all things with patience and long-suffering;

wmth@Colossians:1:12 @ and give thanks to the Father who has made us fit to receive our share of the inheritance of God's people in Light.

wmth@Colossians:1:23 @ if, indeed, you are still firmly holding to faith as your foundation, without ever shifting from your hope that rests on the Good News that you have heard, which has been proclaimed in the whole creation under Heaven, and in which I Paul have been appointed to serve.

wmth@Colossians:2:3 @ In Him all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are stored up, hidden from view.

wmth@Colossians:2:8 @ Take care lest there be some one who leads you away as prisoners by means of his philosophy and idle fancies, following human traditions and the world's crude notions instead of following Christ.

wmth@Colossians:2:9 @ For it is in Christ that the fulness of God's nature dwells embodied, and in Him you are made complete,

wmth@Colossians:2:14 @ The bond, with its requirements, which was in force against us and was hostile to us, He cancelled, and cleared it out of the way, nailing it to His Cross.

wmth@Colossians:2:22 @ referring to things which are all intended to be used up and perish–in obedience to mere human injunctions and teachings?

wmth@Colossians:3:1 @ If however you have risen with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, enthroned at God's right hand.

wmth@Colossians:3:2 @ Give your minds to the things that are above, not to the things that are on the earth.

wmth@Colossians:3:20 @ Children be obedient to your parents in everything; for that is right for Christians.

wmth@Colossians:3:23 @ Whatever you are doing, let your hearts be in your work, as a thing done for the Lord and not for men.

wmth@Colossians:3:24 @ For you know that it is from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. Christ is the Master whose bondservants you are.

wmth@Colossians:3:25 @ The man who perpetrates a wrong will find the wrong repaid to him; and with God there are no merely earthly distinctions.

wmth@Colossians:4:8 @ And for this very purpose I send him to you that you may know how we are faring; and that he may cheer your hearts.

wmth@Colossians:4:11 @ Jesus, called Justus, also sends greeting. These three are Hebrew converts. They alone among such have worked loyally with me for the Kingdom of God–they are men who have been a comfort to me.

wmth@Colossians:4:17 @ And tell Archippus to discharge carefully the duties devolving upon him as a servant of the Lord.

wmth@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ knowing as we do, brethren, that you are beloved by God and that He has chosen you.

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

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For, as you are well aware, we have never used the language of flattery nor have we found pretexts for enriching ourselves–God is our witness;

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You yourselves are witnesses –and God is witness– how holy and upright and blameless our dealings with you believers were.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ and imploring you to live lives worthy of fellowship with God who is inviting you to share His own Kingship and glory.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, followed the example of the Churches of God in Christ Jesus which are in Judaea; seeing that you endured the same ill-treatment at the hands of your countrymen, as they did at the hands of the Jews.

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ Those Jewish persecutors killed both the Lord Jesus and the Prophets, and drove us out of their midst. They are displeasing to God, and are the enemies of all mankind;

wmth@1Thessalonians:2:20 @ Yes, you are our glory and our joy.

wmth@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ that none of you might be unnerved by your present trials: for you yourselves know that they are our appointed lot.

wmth@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For even when we were with you, we forewarned you, saying, »We are soon to suffer affliction;« and this actually happened, as you well know.

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

wmth@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ For now life is for us life indeed, since you are standing fast in the Lord.

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For this we declare to you on the Lord's own authority–that we who are alive and continue on earth until the Coming of the Lord, shall certainly not forestall those who shall have previously passed away.

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Afterwards we who are alive and are still on earth will be caught up in their company amid clouds to meet the Lord in the air.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ While they are saying »Peace and safety!« then in a moment destruction falls upon them, like birth-pains on a woman who is with child; and escape there is none.

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

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ for all of you are sons of Light and sons of the day. We belong neither to the night nor to darkness.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ who died on our behalf, so that whether we are awake or are sleeping we may share His Life.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ Now we beg you, brethren, to show respect for those who labour among you and are your leaders in Christian work, and are your advisers;

wmth@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ Unceasing thanks are due from us to God on your behalf, brethren. They are appropriate because your faith is growing greatly, and the love of every one of you for all the others goes on increasing.

wmth@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ It so increases that we ourselves make honourable mention of you among the Churches of God because of your patience and faith amid all your persecutions and amid the afflictions which you are enduring.

wmth@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ For these are a plain token of God's righteous judgement, which has in view your being deemed worthy of admission to God's Kingdom, for the sake of which, indeed, you are sufferers.

wmth@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ A plain token of God's righteous judgement, I say, since it is a righteous thing for Him to requite with affliction those who are now afflicting you;

wmth@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to requite with rest you who are suffering affliction now–rest with us at the re-appearing of the Lord Jesus from Heaven, attended by His mighty angels.

wmth@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and by every kind of wicked deception for those who are on the way to perdition because they did not welcome into their hearts the love of the truth, so that they might be saved.

wmth@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ And from us thanks are always due to God on your behalf –brethren whom the Lord loves– because God from the beginning has chosen you for salvation through the Spirit's sanctifying influence and your belief in the truth.

wmth@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ To this blessing God has called you by our Good News, so that you may have a share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wmth@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we have confidence in the Lord in regard to you that you are doing, and will do, what we command.

wmth@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that there are some of you who live disorderly lives and are mere idle busybodies.

wmth@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ To persons of that sort our injunction –and our command by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ– is that they are to work quietly and eat their own honestly-earned bread.

wmth@1Timothy:1:7 @ They are ambitious to be teachers of the Law, although they do not understand either their own words or what the things are about which they make such confident assertions.

wmth@1Timothy:1:20 @ Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.

wmth@1Timothy:2:2 @ including kings and all who are in high station, in order that we may live peaceful and tranquil lives with all godliness and gravity.

wmth@1Timothy:2:8 @ So then I would have the men everywhere pray, lifting to God holy hands which are unstained with anger or strife;

wmth@1Timothy:3:5 @ (If a man does not know how to rule his own household, how shall he have the Church of God given into his care?)

wmth@1Timothy:3:7 @ It is needful also that he bear a good character with people outside the Church, lest he fall into reproach or a snare of the Devil.

wmth@1Timothy:3:13 @ For those who have filled the deacon's office wisely and well, are already gaining for themselves an honourable standing, and are acquiring great freedom of speech in proclaiming the faith which rests on Christ Jesus.

wmth@1Timothy:3:16 @ And, beyond controversy, great is the mystery of our religion– that Christ appeared in human form, and His claims justified by the Spirit, was seen by angels and proclaimed among Gentile nations, was believed on in the world, and received up again into glory.

wmth@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly declares that in later times some will fall away from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and the teachings of demons;

wmth@1Timothy:4:2 @ through the hypocrisy of men who teach falsely and have their own consciences seared as with a hot iron;

wmth@1Timothy:4:6 @ If you warn the brethren of these dangers you will be a good and faithful servant of Christ Jesus, inwardly feeding on the lessons of the faith and of the sound teaching of which you have been, and are, so close a follower.

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

wmth@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not be careless about the gifts with which you are endowed, which were conferred on you through a divine revelation when the hands of the elders were placed upon you.

wmth@1Timothy:4:16 @ Be on your guard as to yourself and your teaching. Persevere in these things; for by doing this you will make certain your own salvation and that of your hearers.

wmth@1Timothy:5:3 @ Honour widows who are really in need.

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

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

wmth@James:2:21 @ Was it, or was it not, because of his actions that he was declared to be righteous as the result of his having offered up his son Isaac upon the altar?

wmth@James:2:25 @ In the same way also was not the notorious sinner Rahab declared to be righteous because of her actions when she welcomed the spies and hurriedly helped them to escape another way?

wmth@1John:4:5 @ They are the world's children, and so their language is that of the world, and the world listens to them. We are God's children.

wmth@1John:4:13 @ We can know that we are continuing in union with Him and that He is continuing in union with us, by the fact that He has given us a portion of His Spirit.

wmth@1John:4:17 @ Our love will be manifested in all its perfection by our having complete confidence on the day of the Judgement; because just what He is, we also are in the world.

wmth@1John:5:3 @ Love for God means obedience to His commands; and His commands are not irksome.

wmth@1John:5:7 @ For there are three that give testimony– the Spirit, the water, and the blood;

wmth@1John:5:19 @ We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the Evil one.

wmth@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we know the true One, and are in union with the true One–that is, we are in union with His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and the Life of the Ages.

wmth@2John:1:10 @ If any one who comes to you does not bring this teaching, do not receive him under your roof nor bid him Farewell.

wmth@2John:1:11 @ He who bids him Farewell is a sharer in his evil deeds.

wmth@3John:1:4 @ I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are living in obedience to the truth.

wmth@3John:1:5 @ My dear friend, you are acting faithfully in all your behaviour towards the brethren, even when they are strangers to you.

wmth@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James: To those who are in God the Father, enfolded in His love, and kept for Jesus Christ, and called.

wmth@Jude:1:7 @ So also Sodom and Gomorrah –and the neighboring towns in the same manner– having been guilty of gross fornication and having gone astray in pursuit of unnatural vice, are now before us as a specimen of the fire of the Ages in the punishment which they are undergoing.

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

wmth@Jude:1:10 @ Yet these men are abusive in matters of which they know nothing, and in things which, like the brutes, they understand instinctively–in all these they corrupt themselves.

wmth@Jude:1:12 @ These men –sunken rocks!– are those who share the pleasure of your love-feasts, unrestrained by fear while caring only for themselves; clouds without water, driven away by the winds; trees that cast their fruit, barren, doubly dead, uprooted;

wmth@Jude:1:15 @ and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly deeds which in their ungodliness they have committed, and of all the hard words which they, ungodly sinners as they are, have spoken against Him.«

wmth@Jude:1:16 @ These men are murmurers, ever bemoaning their lot. Their lives are guided by their evil passions, and their mouths are full of big, boastful words, while they treat individual men with admiring reverence for the sake of the advantage they can gain.

wmth@Jude:1:18 @ how they declared to you, »In the last times there shall be scoffers, obeying only their own ungodly passions.«

wmth@Jude:1:19 @ These are those who cause divisions. They are men of the world, wholly unspiritual.
