mnt@Matthew:27:10 @ and gave them for the Potters Field, as the Lord had appointed me.

mnt@Matthew:27:11 @ Now Jesus stood before the Governor, and the Governor questioned him. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he asked.

mnt@Matthew:27:12 @ "it is as you say," answered Jesus; but while he was being accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.

mnt@Matthew:27:14 @ But he made no answer, not even to one charge; insomuch that the Governor was greatly astonished.

mnt@Matthew:27:15 @ Now it was the Governors custom, during the Passover, to release to the people any one prisoner whom they selected.

mnt@Matthew:27:16 @ At that time they had a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

mnt@Matthew:27:17 @ So when they had assembled, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?"

mnt@Matthew:27:18 @ He knew well that it was because of enmity that they had brought Jesus before him.

mnt@Matthew:27:19 @ And while he was seated upon the judgment-seat, his wife had sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered many things today, in a dream, because of him."

mnt@Matthew:27:20 @ But the chief priests and the elders urged the crowds to ask for Barabbas, and to destroy Jesus.

mnt@Matthew:27:21 @ So when Pilate said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release unto you?" they said, "Barabbas."

mnt@Matthew:27:22 @ And Pilate asked, "What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ?" What one voice they shouted, "Let him be crucified!"

mnt@Matthew:27:23 @ But Pilate said, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they kept shouting the more fiercely, "Let him be crucified!"

mnt@Matthew:27:24 @ So when Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but that on the contrary a riot was threatening, he took water and washed his hands in the presence of the crowd, saying. "I am innocent of the blood of this man; you must answer for it."

mnt@Matthew:27:26 @ Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus he scourged, and delivered to be crucified.

mnt@Matthew:27:31 @ At last, when they had finished their mocking, they took the robe off, and put his own garments on him, and led him away to crucify him.

mnt@Matthew:27:32 @ And as they went out they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, whom they compelled to go with them to carry his cross.

mnt@Matthew:27:34 @ they gave Jesus wine to drink, mingled with gall. But after tasting it he refused to drink it.

mnt@Matthew:27:35 @ After crucifying him, they parted his garments among them by casting lots.

mnt@Matthew:27:39 @ Those who passed by reviled him, wagging their heads saying.

mnt@Matthew:27:46 @ But at three oclock Jesus cried out in loud voice, "Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachthani?" (That is to say, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?")

mnt@Matthew:27:51 @ And lo, the veil of the sanctuary was torn in two, from the top to the bottom;

mnt@Matthew:27:52 @ the earth quaked; the rocks split; the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised.

mnt@Matthew:27:57 @ When it was eventide, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Josephus, who was himself a disciple of Jesus.

mnt@Matthew:27:58 @ This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

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

mnt@Matthew:27:63 @ "We recollect, Sir, that when he was living this imposter said, I will rise again after three days.

mnt@Matthew:27:64 @ Now therefore give order to have the sepulcher securely guarded until the third day, for fear his disciples may come and steal him away, and then tell the people, He is risen from the dead;and so the last error will be worse than the first."

mnt@Matthew:27:65 @ "You can have a guard," said Pilate. "Go your way, make it as secure as you can."

mnt@Matthew:28:1 @ At the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came down to see the sepulcher, when lo!

mnt@Matthew:28:2 @ There had been a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord had come down from heaven, and gone and rolled away the stone, and was sitting upon it.

mnt@Matthew:28:3 @ His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow.

mnt@Matthew:28:6 @ He is not here; for he is risen, even as he said. Come, see the place where the Master was lying!

mnt@Matthew:28:9 @ And behold! Jesus himself met them, saying, "All hail!" And they went up to him and clasped his feet and worshiped him.

mnt@Matthew:28:13 @ "His disciples came by night and stole him away, while we were asleep."

mnt@Matthew:28:15 @ So the soldiers took the money, and did as they were told; and this story has been noised abroad among the Jews, and continues to this day.

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

mnt@Mark:1:2 @ even as it is written in the prophet Isaiah, Behold, I am sending my messenger before your face to prepare your way.

mnt@Mark:1:6 @ And Johnwas clothed with camels hair, and he had a leather girdle round his loins, and he ate locusts, and "honey of the wood."

mnt@Mark:1:7 @ He made proclamation. "There is One mightier than I coming after me, and I am not worthy to stoop down and unfasten his sandal strap;

mnt@Mark:1:9 @ It was at that time that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by Johnin the Jordan;

mnt@Mark:1:10 @ and as soon as he rose from the water he saw the sky cleft asunder, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him,

mnt@Mark:1:13 @ and he remained in the desert for forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was among the wild beasts, but the angels were ministering to him.

mnt@Mark:1:16 @ And as he was passing along by the sea of Galilee he saw Simon and Andrew, Simons brother, casting their net into the sea, for they were fishermen;

mnt@Mark:1:19 @ As he went a little farther on he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and Johnhis brother, who also were in their boat mending the nets.

mnt@Mark:1:21 @ So they came to Capernaum, and as soon as the Sabbath Day came he went into the synagogue and began to teach.

mnt@Mark:1:22 @ They were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them with authority, not like the Scribes.

mnt@Mark:1:27 @ and every one was amazed so that they began questioning among themselves. "What does this mean? A new teaching with authority? He lays commands even upon unclean spirits and they obey him."

mnt@Mark:1:33 @ and the whole town was gathered at the door.

mnt@Mark:1:34 @ He cured many who were ill with various diseases, and drove out many demons. But he did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who he was.

mnt@Mark:1:40 @ One day a leper cane to him and besought him as he knelt down to him, saying, "If you choose, you are able to cleanse me."

mnt@Mark:1:41 @ Jesus, moved with compassion, put out his hand and touched him, saying, "I do choose, be clean!"

mnt@Mark:1:42 @ The leprosy at once left him, and he was made clean.

mnt@Mark:1:45 @ But he went out and began to tell every one and to publish it broadcast, so that Jesus could no longer enter any town openly; but he had to remain outside in lonely places, and people kept coming to him from every quarter.

mnt@Mark:2:2 @ and at once such a crowd gathered that there was no longer room for them, even around the door.

mnt@Mark:2:3 @ While he was speaking his message, they came bringing to him a paralytic, carried by four men.

mnt@Mark:2:4 @ When they could not get him near to Jesus because of the crowd, they removed the roof under which he stood, and after making an opening, they let down the cot on which the paralytic was lying.

mnt@Mark:2:6 @ But there were some Scribes sitting there who reasoned in their hearts.

mnt@Mark:2:7 @ "Why does this man speak like this? He blasphemes. Who is able to forgive sins but One, God himself?"

mnt@Mark:2:8 @ Jesus clearly perceived at once be the Spirit that they were thus reasoning in their hearts and said to them.

mnt@Mark:2:9 @ "Why do you reason thus in your hearts? Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, Your sins are forgiven, or to say, Rise, take up your cot and walk?

mnt@Mark:2:10 @ But to let you see that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins" -he said to the paralytic-

mnt@Mark:2:12 @ The man rose, at once took up his cot, and went out before them all; at which they were all astounded, and gave God glory, saying, "We never saw anything like this."

mnt@Mark:2:13 @ Then Jesus went again to the seaside, and the whole crowd kept coming to him, and he taught them.

mnt@Mark:2:14 @ As he was passing by he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting in the tax-office; and he said to him, "Follow me." So he rose and followed him.

mnt@Mark:2:15 @ Later on Levi was sitting at table in his house, and together with Jesus and his disciples a number of tax-gatherers and sinners were guests, for there were many of them who used to follow him.

mnt@Mark:2:18 @ Now the disciples of Johnand the Pharisees were keeping a fast, and people came to ask him, "How is it that the disciples of Johnand the Pharisees are fasting, but your disciples are not?"

mnt@Mark:2:19 @ "Can friends of the bridegroom fast while he is still with them?" asked Jesus. "As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

mnt@Mark:2:20 @ But the days will come when the Bridegroom will be taken away from them; then, on that day, they will fast.

mnt@Mark:2:23 @ One Sabbath he was walking along through the wheat-fields, and his disciples, as they began to make their way across, were pulling the heads of wheat.

mnt@Mark:2:25 @ He answered them. "Have you never read what David did when he was needy and hungry, he and his men?

mnt@Mark:2:26 @ How he went into the house of God when Abiathar was priest, and ate the consecrated bread, which none but priests may eat, and gave some to his men?

mnt@Mark:2:27 @ "The Sabbath," he told them, "was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath;

mnt@Mark:2:28 @ so the Son of man is Master even of the Sabbath."

mnt@Mark:3:1 @ Again he went into a synagogue where there was a man with his hand withered.

mnt@Mark:3:2 @ And they kept watching Jesus to see whether he would cure him on the Sabbath; so as to have some charge to bring against him.

mnt@Mark:3:4 @ Then he asked them. "Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath Day, or to do harm? to save a life, or to destroy it?"

mnt@Mark:3:5 @ They were silent. Then looking around upon them with anger, and deeply grieved by the hardening of their hearts, he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand!" He stretched it out, and the hand was at once completely restored.

mnt@Mark:3:6 @ As soon as they came out, the Pharisees plotted against him with the Herodians, in order to destroy him.

mnt@Mark:3:8 @ From Judea, too, and Jerusalem, and Idumea, and from beyond Jordan, and from the district of Tyre and Sidon, they came to him a vast multitude, because they heard what he was doing.

mnt@Mark:3:10 @ For he had healed so many that all the people who had ailments pressed upon him so as to touch him.

mnt@Mark:3:15 @ and to have authority to cast out demons.

mnt@Mark:3:16 @ There was Simon, whom he surnamed Peter,

mnt@Mark:3:18 @ and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and Jamesthe son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Zealot,

mnt@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot who betrayed him.

mnt@Mark:3:20 @ Then he went into a house, but again such a multitude assembled that they could not get their food.

mnt@Mark:3:22 @ The Scribes also who had come down from Jerusalem, said, "He is Beelzebub," and, "He casts out demons by the power of the Prince of the demons."

mnt@Mark:3:23 @ So when he had called them to him he spoke to them in parables. "How," said he, "can Satan cast out Satan?

mnt@Mark:3:26 @ and if Satan has revolted against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand. Nay, he meets his end!

mnt@Mark:3:28 @ In solemn truth I tell you that the sons of men shall be forgiven all their sins and all the blasphemies they may utter,

mnt@Mark:3:29 @ but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit is never forgiven. Nay, he is in the grasp of an eternal sin."

mnt@Mark:3:30 @ Because they kept saying, "He has an unclean spirit."

mnt@Mark:3:32 @ Now a crowd was sitting round him and they told him, "See! your mother and your brothers and sisters are outside, wanting to see you."

mnt@Mark:4:1 @ Afterwards Jesus began to teach by the seaside, and a vast multitude of people gathered about him, so that he went on board a boat on the sea, and sat there, while all the people stayed on shore, at the waters edge.

mnt@Mark:4:4 @ and as he sowed, it happened that some seed fell on the road, and birds came and picked it up;

mnt@Mark:4:6 @ but when the sun rose it was scorched and withered away because it had no root.

mnt@Mark:4:8 @ But some seed fell into good soil and yielded a crop that sprang up and increased, yielding thirty, sixty, or a hundredfold.

mnt@Mark:4:9 @ "Any one who has ears to hear," he added, "let him listen to this."

mnt@Mark:4:10 @ When he was alone his followers and the Twelve began asking about the parables.

mnt@Mark:4:11 @ He went on to say to them. "The secret truth concerning the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those outside everything is told in parables,

mnt@Mark:4:15 @ As soon as they hear it, Satan immediately comes and snatches away the Word which has been sown in them.

mnt@Mark:4:17 @ but because they have no root in themselves they last for a time; but when suffering or persecution ensues because of the Word, they at once fall away.

mnt@Mark:4:23 @ If any man has ears to hear, let him hear."

mnt@Mark:4:24 @ And he said to them. "Take heed what you hear. With what measure you measure it will be measured to you, and more will be given to you.

mnt@Mark:4:25 @ For he who holds, to him will more be given, and he who holds not, from him will be taken even what he holds." "It is with the kingdom of God," he continued, "as if a man should have sown seed in the earth;

mnt@Mark:4:29 @ Then as soon as the crop is ready the man has the sickle put in at once, because harvest-time is come.

mnt@Mark:4:33 @ With many such illustrations Jesus used to tell his message to people as far as they were able to receive it;

mnt@Mark:4:34 @ and to them it was his practice never to speak except in parables. But he used to explain everything in private to his disciples.

mnt@Mark:4:36 @ So, leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them just as he was in the boat; and the other boats were with him.

mnt@Mark:4:37 @ But a great gale of wind came up, and the waves were dashing into the boat so that it began to fill.

mnt@Mark:4:38 @ Now he himself was sleeping on the cushion in the stern, so they woke him up, saying, "Master, do you not care if we perish?"

mnt@Mark:5:4 @ Not even with a chain could any man bind him, for he had been bound with fetters and chains again and again, and had snapped the chains, and broken the fetters; and there was no one strong enough to master him.

mnt@Mark:5:5 @ And always, night and day, he remained among the tombs and in the mountains, shrieking and gashing himself with stones.

mnt@Mark:5:6 @ As he caught sight of Jesus from afar, he ran and knelt before him,

mnt@Mark:5:8 @ For Jesus was saying, "Foul spirit, come out of the man."

mnt@Mark:5:9 @ He continued asking him, "What is your mane?" "Legion is my name, for we are many."

mnt@Mark:5:11 @ Now there was on the hillside a great drove of swine feeding.

mnt@Mark:5:18 @ As he was getting into the boat the man who had been demon-possessed kept begging to go with him; but he said,

mnt@Mark:5:19 @ "Go home to your own people, and tell them what great things God has done for you, and has had mercy upon you."

mnt@Mark:5:20 @ So he went and began to publish abroad in the District of the Ten Towns all that Jesus had done for him; and every one was astonished and all men marveled.

mnt@Mark:5:21 @ Then after Jesus had recrossed in a boat to the other side, a vast multitude came crowding around him; so he stayed on the seashore.

mnt@Mark:5:22 @ Then one of the wardens of the synagogue, named Jairus, came up, and as soon as he saw Jesus, fell at his feet, with many entreaties,

mnt@Mark:5:25 @ Now there was a woman who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years,

mnt@Mark:5:26 @ and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, but was no better; on the contrary, rather grew worse.

mnt@Mark:5:29 @ At once the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was cured of her complaint.

mnt@Mark:5:34 @ "Daughter," he said, "your faith has saved you. Go in peace, and be cured of your complaint."

mnt@Mark:5:35 @ While he was still speaking men came from the house of the warden of the synagogue to tell him, "Your daughter is dead, why trouble the Teacher any further?"

mnt@Mark:5:38 @ As they came to the house of the warden of the synagogue, he gazed upon a tumult, many weeping and wailing shrilly.

mnt@Mark:5:39 @ "Why all this tumult and loud weeping?" he asked.

mnt@Mark:5:40 @ "The child is not dead, but asleep." And they began to laugh him to scorn. Then he put them all outside, took the father and mother of the child and those he brought with him, and entered the room where the child was lying.

mnt@Mark:5:42 @ And instantly the little girl stood up, and began to walk, for she was twelve years old, They were at once beside themselves with utter amazement.

mnt@Mark:6:2 @ When it came Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue; many, as they listened, were deeply impressed. "Where did he get all this?" they asked; "What is the wisdom that is given to this man, and miracles such as these that happen at his hands?

mnt@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of Jamesand Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?"

mnt@Mark:6:5 @ And he was unable to do any miracle there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick folk and healed them.

mnt@Mark:6:11 @ and if any place does not receive you, or listen to you, as you go out of it shake off the dust under your feet, as a warning to them."

mnt@Mark:6:13 @ They cast out many demons, and anointed many sick people with oil and cured them.

mnt@Mark:6:16 @ But when Herod heard, he said, "That Johnwhom I beheaded has come back to life."

mnt@Mark:6:17 @ Now this Herod had sent and arrested John, and bound him in prison, for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philips wife, whom he had married.

mnt@Mark:6:19 @ So Herodias hated him, and wished to put him to death;

mnt@Mark:6:20 @ but she could not, for Herod was afraid of Johnbecause he knew that he was a just and holy man. So he kept him safe. When he listened to Johnhe was much exercised, yet he found pleasure in listening to him.

mnt@Mark:6:21 @ Then came a convenient day, when Herod on his birthday held a feast for his lords and generals and the leading men of Galilee,

mnt@Mark:6:22 @ at which the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced. She charmed Herod and his guests. "Ask me whatever you want," said the king to the young girl, "and I will give it to you."

mnt@Mark:6:23 @ He even swore to her that whatever she asked, he would give it to her, up to half his kingdom.

mnt@Mark:6:24 @ So she came out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask for?" "The head of Johnthe Baptist," she replied.

mnt@Mark:6:26 @ Then the king was exceedingly sorry; yet on account of his oaths and his guests he was unwilling to disappoint her.

mnt@Mark:6:34 @ So when Jesus landed he saw a vast multitude, and he was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things.

mnt@Mark:6:35 @ Then when the day was now far spent, his disciples came to him and said. "This place is desert, and the day is now far spent.

mnt@Mark:6:39 @ Then he directed them to make all sit down by companies on the green grass.

mnt@Mark:6:43 @ All ate and had enough; and they carried away broken fragments of bread and of fish, enough to fill twelve baskets.

mnt@Mark:6:47 @ And when evening came, the boat was half-way across the sea, while he was on shore alone;

mnt@Mark:6:48 @ but when he saw them distressed in rowing (for the wind was against them), about the fourth watch of the night he went to them, walking upon the sea,

mnt@Mark:6:49 @ they thought it was an apparition and shrieked aloud, for they all saw him and were terrified.

mnt@Mark:6:51 @ Then he got into the boat beside them, and the wind ceased, and they were utterly astounded,

mnt@Mark:6:52 @ for they had not understood about the loaves; on the contrary their heart was hardened.

mnt@Mark:6:54 @ As soon as they got out of the boat, the people at once recognized him,

mnt@Mark:6:55 @ and began running over that whole country, and carrying the sick about on their beds, wherever they heard he was.

mnt@Mark:6:56 @ And whenever he entered into villages or cities or the fields they would lay the sick in the market-places and beseech him to let them touch even the tassel of his cloak, and all who touched him were made well.

mnt@Mark:7:2 @ They had noticed that some of his disciples were eating with "common," that is to say, unwashed hands.

mnt@Mark:7:3 @ For the Pharisees and all of the Jews do not eat until they have ceremoniously washed their hands in obedience to the tradition of the elders;

mnt@Mark:7:4 @ and when they come from the market-place they do not eat without bathing first. and they have many other customs which they have received and observe, such as the washing of cups and jugs and copper pans.

mnt@Mark:7:5 @ So the Pharisees and Scribes asked him. "Why do your disciples not follow the traditions of the elders? Why do they eat with common unwashed hands?"

mnt@Mark:7:6 @ "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, hypocrites," he answered. "As it is written, "This people honor me with their lips, While their hearts are far from me;

mnt@Mark:7:8 @ "You neglect the commandment of God, and hold fast the traditions of men."

mnt@Mark:7:17 @ After he had left the crowd and gone indoors his disciples began asking him about the parable.

mnt@Mark:7:19 @ because it does not go into his heart, but into his belly, and passes away, ejected from him?" By these words he pronounced all foods clean.

mnt@Mark:7:25 @ Forthwith a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet

mnt@Mark:7:26 @ (the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by race), and again and again she begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

mnt@Mark:7:28 @ "True, Master," she answered, "but the dogs under the table do pick up the childrens crumbs."

mnt@Mark:7:29 @ "For that saying of yours, go home," he replied; "the demon has departed from your daughter."

mnt@Mark:7:31 @ Again he left the region of Tyre, and passed through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, crossing the District of the Ten Towns.

mnt@Mark:7:33 @ So Jesus took him aside from the crowd, by himself, and put his finger in the mans ears, and moistened his tongue with saliva;

mnt@Mark:7:35 @ And his ears were opened and the bond of his tongue was loosened, and he spoke plainly. Then Jesus charged them not to tell any one, but the more he charged them, the more they published it;

mnt@Mark:7:36 @ and people were amazed beyond measure saying. "How successfully he does things! Even the deaf he makes to hear, and the dumb to speak."

mnt@Mark:8:1 @ In those days when a large crowd had again assembled and had nothing to eat, Jesus called together his disciples and said to them.

mnt@Mark:8:3 @ and if I send them away fasting to their homes, they will faint on the way. Moreover, some of them are from a distance."

mnt@Mark:8:5 @ He asked them, "How many loaves have you?" "Seven," they said.

mnt@Mark:8:19 @ Do you not remember? When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets of broken pieces did you take up?" "Twelve," they said.

mnt@Mark:8:23 @ Taking the blind man by the hand, he led him outside the village; and, after spitting on his eyes, he laid his hands on him and asked, "Can you make out anything?"

mnt@Mark:8:24 @ The man looked up and said, "I can make out the people, for as they move about, I see them like trees."

mnt@Mark:8:38 @ Whoever is ashamed of me and my words in this unfaithful and wicked generation, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."

mnt@Mark:9:1 @ "In solemn truth I tell you," he said, "there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God, come with power."

mnt@Mark:9:3 @ Here in their presence he was transfigured; and his clothes also became glistering with a radiant whiteness, such as no bleaching on earth could give.

mnt@Mark:9:5 @ "Master," said Peter, addressing Jesus, "it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three tents one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

mnt@Mark:9:8 @ And suddenly as they looked around, they saw no one any more beside them, but Jesus alone.

mnt@Mark:9:9 @ As they came down the mountain he strictly forbade them to narrate to any one what they had seen, until after the Son of man had risen from the dead.

mnt@Mark:9:11 @ So they asked him, "How is it that the Scribes say that Elijah must first come?"

mnt@Mark:9:13 @ "Elijah indeed has already come," he added, "and they have done to him whatever they pleased, even as it is written of him."

mnt@Mark:9:15 @ As soon as they saw him, all the people were astounded and ran up to greet him.

mnt@Mark:9:16 @ He asked them, "What are you discussing with them?"

mnt@Mark:9:17 @ "Master," answered one of the crowd, "I brought my son to you; he has a dumb spirit in him;

mnt@Mark:9:18 @ and wherever it seizes him it dashes him down; he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and is wasting away. I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."

mnt@Mark:9:21 @ Then Jesus asked the father, "How long has he been like this?"

mnt@Mark:9:22 @ "From childhood," he answered; "and often it has thrown him into the fire and into the water, to destroy him; but if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us."

mnt@Mark:9:26 @ So with a loud shriek it came out, after throwing the boy into convulsion after convulsion. The boy looked like a corpse, so that most of them said that he was dead.

mnt@Mark:9:28 @ When Jesus had gone into the house, his disciples asked him in private, "Why could not we cast it out?"

mnt@Mark:9:29 @ "This kind can only be cast out by prayer," he replied.

mnt@Mark:9:30 @ Jesus and his disciples, after leaving that place, passed through Galilee; but he was unwilling that any one should know it,

mnt@Mark:9:31 @ for he was explaining to his disciples that the Son of man was to be betrayed into the hands of men, and that they would put him to death, but that after he had been put to death, he would rise again after three days,

mnt@Mark:9:32 @ But they did not understand his words, and were afraid to ask him the meaning.

mnt@Mark:9:33 @ Then they came to Capernaum; and when he got into the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the road?"

mnt@Mark:9:34 @ But they were silent, for on the road they were disputing together which one was greatest.

mnt@Mark:9:35 @ So he sat down and called the Twelve, and said to them, "If any one wishes to be first, he must be last of all, and the servant of all."

mnt@Mark:9:38 @ "Master," said John, "we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him because he did not follow us."

mnt@Mark:10:2 @ Presently some Pharisees came up and tested him, by asking if it was lawful for a man to divorce his wife.

mnt@Mark:10:9 @ What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder."

mnt@Mark:10:14 @ Jesus was indignant when he saw it, and said. "Let the little children come to me. Do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such.

mnt@Mark:10:15 @ I tell you true that unless a man receives the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not even enter it."

mnt@Mark:10:17 @ As he started to go forth into the road, a man came running up to him, and knelt down before him. "Good Teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

mnt@Mark:10:21 @ Jesus loved him as he looked at him, and said. "One thing you lack. Go, sell all you have and give to the poor; and you shall have wealth in heaven; and come, follow me."

mnt@Mark:10:22 @ But his face fell at these words, and he went away saddened, for he was one who had great wealth.

mnt@Mark:10:25 @ "My sons, how hard it is for those who trust in money to enter the kingdom of God. It is easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven."

mnt@Mark:10:26 @ "Then who can be saved?" they said to themselves astonished beyond measure.

mnt@Mark:10:29 @ "I tell you solemnly," said Jesus, "that there is no man who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for my sake and the gospels,

mnt@Mark:10:32 @ They were still on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus led the way; and they were amazed, and some, although they followed, were afraid. Then once more he took the Twelve, and began to tell them what was about to befall him.

mnt@Mark:10:35 @ Presently there came up to him Jamesand John, the sons of Zebedee, and said, "Teacher, we wish you would do for us whatever we ask you."

mnt@Mark:10:38 @ "You know not what you are asking," said Jesus. "Can you drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"

mnt@Mark:10:42 @ "You know that those who are regarded as rulers among the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones make them feel their authority.

mnt@Mark:10:47 @ Hearing that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began shouting and saying, "Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me!"

mnt@Mark:10:52 @ "Go," said Jesus, "your own faith has saved you," and immediately he received his sight, and began to follow Jesus along the road.

mnt@Mark:11:2 @ Jesus sent two of his disciples and told them. "Go to that village in front of you, and immediately on entering it you will find a colt tied, upon which no man has ever sat; untie him and bring him here.

mnt@Mark:11:3 @ And if any man asks you, Why are you doing that?" answer, The Lord has need of him, and he will immediately send him back."

mnt@Mark:11:6 @ So they answered them just as Jesus had told them, and they let them take it.

mnt@Mark:11:11 @ Then he entered Jerusalem and went into the Temple, and after he had looked around at everything, as the hour was now late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.

mnt@Mark:11:12 @ The next day after leaving Bethany he was hungry,

mnt@Mark:11:13 @ and seeing a fig tree in the distance full of leaves, he came to see if he could find anything on it, and found on it nothing but leaves (for it was not the time of figs).

mnt@Mark:11:20 @ and as they (he and his disciples) were passing along in the morning, they saw the fig tree already withered from the root.

mnt@Mark:11:24 @ That is why I am telling you that whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it shall be yours.

mnt@Mark:11:25 @ And whenever you stand up to pray, forgive, if you have anything against any one, that so your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."

mnt@Mark:11:27 @ Once more they came into Jerusalem; and as he was walking in the Temple courts, there came to him the high priests and Scribes and elders and asked him.

mnt@Mark:11:30 @ The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me!"

mnt@Mark:11:31 @ Then they began arguing with one another. "If we say, From heaven, he will ask, Why then did you not believe him?"

mnt@Mark:11:33 @ So their answer to Jesus was, "We do not know." "Neither will I tell you," said Jesus, "by what authority I do these things."

mnt@Mark:12:1 @ Presently Jesus began to speak to them in parables. "There was once a man," he said, "who planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a pit for the wine-press, built a tower, rented it to tenants, and went abroad.

mnt@Mark:12:28 @ Just then up came one of the Scribes who had heard them arguing, and realized that Jesus had answered them admirably. "What commandment," he asked, "is the first of all?"

mnt@Mark:12:31 @ "The second is this, "Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself. Other command greater than these there is none."

mnt@Mark:12:33 @ and that beside him there is none other, and to love him with all ones heart and with all ones understanding and with all ones might, and to love ones neighbor as oneself is far beyond all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."

mnt@Mark:12:35 @ While he was teaching in the Temple courts, Jesus in his turn asked. "How is it that the Scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?

mnt@Mark:12:37 @ "David himself then calls him Lord; so how can he be his son?" Now the great mass of the people were wont to listen to him with delight;

mnt@Mark:12:41 @ Then Jesus took his seat opposite the treasury and watched the people putting their offerings into the chest. Many rich people were putting in large sums.

mnt@Mark:12:43 @ On this he called his disciples to him, and said. "I tell you solemnly that this poor widow has put in more than all who have put their offerings into the treasury;

mnt@Mark:12:44 @ for they have all put in what they could spare out of their surplus, but she, out of her penury, has put in all that she possessed, her whole living."

mnt@Mark:13:1 @ As Jesus was walking out of the Temple courts, one of his disciples said to him, "Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and buildings these are!"

mnt@Mark:13:3 @ When he had seated himself on the Mount of Olives, facing the Temple, Peter and Jamesand Johnand Andrew asked him privately,

mnt@Mark:14:2 @ but, "Not on a feast-day," they said, "for fear there should be a riot among the people."

mnt@Mark:14:3 @ And while he was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the Leper, while he was dining, a woman came with an alabaster vase of very costly, pure spikenard perfume, and, breaking the vase, she poured the perfume on his head.

mnt@Mark:14:4 @ Some of those who were present said among themselves indignantly. "Why has the perfume been wasted like this?

mnt@Mark:14:9 @ I tell you in solemn truth that wherever the gospel is preached throughout the whole world, there what she has done shall be told in remembrance of her."

mnt@Mark:14:10 @ Now Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went away to the high priests to betray Jesus to them;

mnt@Mark:14:12 @ And the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread, the day for killing the paschal lamb, his disciples asked him, "Where do you want us to go and make preparation for you to eat the Passover?"

mnt@Mark:14:14 @ Follow him; and whatever house he enters, say to the master of the house, The Teacher asks, "Where is your guest-chamber, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"

mnt@Mark:14:16 @ So the disciples went off, and came into the city, and found everything as he had told them.

mnt@Mark:14:17 @ So they made ready the Passover, and as night fell he came, with the Twelve.

mnt@Mark:14:21 @ For the Son of man is going his way, as the Scripture says, but woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for that man if he had never been born."

mnt@Mark:14:22 @ And as they were eating he took bread, and after the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "Take it, this is my body."

mnt@Mark:14:31 @ But Peter kept protesting passionately, "Though I must die with you, I will not disown you!" And they all kept saying the same.

mnt@Mark:14:35 @ So he went a little farther, and throwing himself upon the ground, he prayed repeatedly that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.

mnt@Mark:14:37 @ Then he came and found them asleep, and he said to Peter. "Are you sleeping, Simon? Could you not keep watch one hour?

mnt@Mark:14:40 @ and when he returned he found them once more asleep, for their eyes were heavy with sleep, and they knew not what to say to him.

mnt@Mark:14:43 @ At that instant, while he was yet speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, came up, and with him a mob armed with swords and clubs, sent by the high priests and Scribes and elders.

mnt@Mark:14:48 @ But Jesus interposed, saying. "Are you come out to arrest me with swords and clubs, as if I were a robber?

mnt@Mark:14:49 @ Day after day I was face to face with you in the Temple courts, teaching, and you did not seize me. But this is done that the Scriptures might be fulfilled."

mnt@Mark:14:54 @ Peter also had followed Jesus at a distance, until he was inside the court of the high priest. There he was sitting among the officers, warming himself in the light of the fire.

mnt@Mark:14:55 @ Meanwhile the high priests and all of the Sanhedrin were trying to get evidence against Jesus, so as to have him put to death, but they found none;

mnt@Mark:14:60 @ Then the high priest rose and stood forth among them. "Have you no answer to make?" he asked Jesus; "What is it that these testify against you?"

mnt@Mark:14:64 @ "Did you hear his blasphemy? What is your verdict?"

mnt@Mark:14:66 @ Now while Peter was below in the courtyard, there came one of the maid servants of the high priest, and saw Peter warming himself.

mnt@Mark:14:72 @ At that instant for the second time a cock crew. Then Peter recalled the word which Jesus had spoken to him, "Before the cock crows twice you will disown me thrice." And as he thought of it, he began to weep aloud.

mnt@Mark:15:1 @ As soon as it was down, after the high priests had conferred with the elders and the whole Sanhedrin, they bound Jesus, and took him away, and handed him over to Pilate.

mnt@Mark:15:2 @ Pilate questioned him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" In reply Jesus said, "It is as you say."

mnt@Mark:15:6 @ Now at the time of the feast it was customary to release to them a prisoner, whatever one they asked for.

mnt@Mark:15:7 @ A man named Barabbas was there in prison, with some rioters who had committed murder during an uprising.

mnt@Mark:15:8 @ So when the crowd went up and began asking Pilate to follow his usual custom,

mnt@Mark:15:9 @ he asked them, "Do you wish me to release the King of the Jews?"

mnt@Mark:15:10 @ For he recognized that it was through spite that the high priests had handed him over.

mnt@Mark:15:11 @ But the chief priests incited the crowds to have Barabbas released to them, instead.

mnt@Mark:15:14 @ "Why, what wrong has he done?" Pilate kept saying. But they shouted furiously, "Crucify him!"

mnt@Mark:15:15 @ So Pilate, who wished to make himself strong with the crowd, released Barabbas to them, and gave Jesus over for crucifixion, after he had scourged him.

mnt@Mark:15:26 @ Over his head there was written the words of the charge against him. "The King of the Jews"

mnt@Mark:15:29 @ And the passers-by kept jeering at him, wagging their heads and saying. "Ah! you who were to destroy the sanctuary and rebuild it in three days, save yourself!

mnt@Mark:15:31 @ In the same way the high priests also, as well as the Scribes, kept on mocking him to themselves. "He saved others," they said, "but himself he cannot save.

mnt@Mark:15:33 @ At noon a darkness came over the whole country, lasting until three in the afternoon.

mnt@Mark:15:34 @ At three oclock Jesus cried in a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"

mnt@Mark:15:38 @ And the curtain of the Sanctuary was torn in two from top to bottom.

mnt@Mark:16:4 @ But then as they looked up they saw that the stone, which was a very large one, was already rolled away;

mnt@Mark:16:6 @ They were terrified, but he said to them. "Do not be terrified! You are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified? He is risen; he is not here. See, the place where they laid him!

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

mnt@Mark:16:12 @ After this he appeared in another form to two of them as they were walking on their way into the country.

mnt@Mark:16:14 @ Afterward he appeared to the Eleven themselves, as they were eating, and reproached them for their lack of faith, and stubborn hearts, because they disbelieved those who had seen him risen.

mnt@Luke:8:27 @ When he landed here he was met by a certain townsman who was possessed by demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes and nor lived in any house, but in tombs.

mnt@Luke:8:29 @ For Jesus was already commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man.

mnt@Luke:9:8 @ and by some that Elijah had appeared; and by others that one of the ancient prophets was risen again.

mnt@Luke:9:17 @ So they ate and were filled, all of them. And there was picked up that which remained over to them, of broken pieces, twelve basketfuls.

mnt@Luke:9:18 @ Now it happened that while he was praying by himself, the disciples were with him, and he asked them a question. "Who do the crowd think I am?"

mnt@Luke:9:33 @ And when they were preparing to depart from him Peter said to Jesus. "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah" - not knowing what he was saying.

mnt@Luke:9:34 @ And while he was saying this, there came a cloud and began to overshadow them; and they were awestruck as they entered into the cloud.

mnt@Luke:9:36 @ When the voice ceased Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no one at that time about what they had seen.

mnt@Luke:9:40 @ "I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."

mnt@Luke:9:42 @ But while he was yet coming the demon dashed him down, and cruelly convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and cured the boy, and gave him back to his father.

mnt@Luke:9:43 @ And they were all awestruck at the mighty power of God. But while everyone was marveling at what he was doing, he said to his disciples.

mnt@Luke:9:45 @ But they did not understand this saying; it was hidden from them so that they perceived it not, and they were sore afraid to ask him about his saying.

mnt@Luke:9:46 @ Now there arose a dispute among them as to which one of them was the greatest.

mnt@Luke:9:47 @ And Jesus who knew the dispute that was in their hearts, took a young child, and placed him by his side;

mnt@Luke:23:16 @ I will therefore, after flogging him, release him."

mnt@Luke:23:17 @ "Now he had to release to them at the feast one prisoner."

mnt@Luke:23:18 @ Then the whole crowd shouted out, "Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas."

mnt@Luke:23:19 @ (This was a man who had been thrown in prison on account of a riot which had occurred in the city, and for murder.)

mnt@Luke:23:20 @ Then Pilate spoke to them again, because he wished to release Jesus;

mnt@Luke:23:22 @ For the third time he appealed to them. "But what crime has he committed? I have found in him nothing that deserves death. I will therefore flog him, and let him go."

mnt@Luke:23:25 @ He released the man who had been put in prison for riot and murder, the man whom they asked for; but Jesus he handed over to their will.

mnt@Luke:23:26 @ And when they led him away they took hold of Simon, a Cyrenean, who was coming in from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry it behind Jesus.

mnt@Luke:23:27 @ He was also followed by a great crowd of people, and of women too, who were beating their breast and lamenting him.

mnt@Luke:23:29 @ "but weep for yourselves and for your children. For behold, the days are coming when they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that have never bore children, and the breasts that never suckled.

mnt@Luke:23:34 @ Jesus kept saying, "Father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." And they divided his garments among them, casting lots for them,

mnt@Luke:23:38 @ For there was an inscription over his head, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mnt@Luke:23:40 @ But the other, answering, reproved him, saying. "Have you no fear of God even? When you are suffering the same punishment as he?

mnt@Luke:23:41 @ "We indeed justly, for we are receiving due retribution for what we have done. But he has done no wrong."

mnt@Luke:23:44 @ It was now about the sixth hour, and a darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.

mnt@Luke:23:45 @ And the sun was darkened, and the curtain of the sanctuary was torn in two in the Temple.

mnt@Luke:23:47 @ When the army captain saw what had happened, he glorified God, saying, "This man was really innocent!"

mnt@Luke:23:48 @ And all the crowds who had assembled to see this spectacle, after witnessing what had been done, were returning beating upon their breast.

mnt@Luke:23:50 @ Now there was a man named Joseph, a member of the Council, a good man and a righteous,

mnt@Luke:23:51 @ he who came from the Jewish town of Arimathea, and who was on the watch for the kingdom of God. He had not concurred in the designs and deed of the council.

mnt@Luke:23:53 @ Then taking it down, he wrapped it in linen, and placed it in a tomb hewn in the rock, where no man has ever been laid.

mnt@Luke:23:54 @ And it was the day of preparation and the Sabbath was near at hand.

mnt@Luke:23:55 @ Then the women who had accompanied him out of Galilee followed after, and noted the tomb, and how his body was placed.

mnt@Luke:24:6 @ "He is not here; he is risen. Do you remember how he told you when he was still in Galilee

mnt@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James, and the rest of the women who were telling all this to the apostles.

mnt@Luke:24:12 @ Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb, but when he stooped and looked in he saw the linen wrappings by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass.

mnt@Luke:24:15 @ and as they talked and discussed matter, Jesus himself drew near and began walking beside them.

mnt@Luke:24:17 @ And he said to them, "What words are these that you are exchanging one with another, as you walk along?"

mnt@Luke:24:18 @ They stood still, looking sad. And one of them named Cleopas, answered him, "Do you sojourn alone in Jerusalem, that you do not know what things have been happening there these days?"

mnt@Luke:24:19 @ "What kind of things?" he answered. And they said. "The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;

mnt@Luke:24:21 @ "But we were hoping that it was he who should redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this is the third day since these things happened.

mnt@Luke:24:23 @ "and found that his body was not there; then they came and told us that besides they had seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

mnt@Luke:24:24 @ "Thereupon some of our own party to the tomb, and found it even so as the women had said, but him they did not see."

mnt@Luke:24:27 @ And beginning with Moses and the Prophets, he interpreted all the passages concerning himself.

mnt@Luke:24:30 @ So he went in to stay with them. But as he sat down with them, and took bread, and had blessed and broken it, and was handing it to them,

mnt@Luke:24:32 @ "Were not our hearts burning within us," they said to each other, "while we were talking with him on the way, and he was opening to us the scriptures?"

mnt@Luke:24:34 @ saying, "The Lord is really risen, and has appeared to Simon!"

mnt@Luke:24:35 @ Then they began to tell what happened on the road, and he was known to them when he broke the bread.

mnt@Luke:24:39 @ "Look at my hands and my feet. It is I! Feel me and see; for a ghost has not flesh and blood as I have."

mnt@Luke:24:41 @ But while they still did not believe it for joy, and were filled with wonder, he asked them, "Have you anything here to eat?"

mnt@Luke:24:44 @ Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, how all things must be fulfilled which are written in the Law of Moses, and the prophets, and the Psalms concerning me."

mnt@Luke:24:51 @ And it happened that while he was blessing them, that he parted from them and was carried into heaven.

mnt@John:1:1 @ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was face to face with God, and the Word was God.

mnt@John:1:2 @ He was face to face with God in the Beginning.

mnt@John:1:4 @ In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

mnt@John:1:5 @ And the light is shining in the darkness, and the darkness has not overwhelmed it

mnt@John:1:6 @ A man came into being, sent from God, whose name was John.

mnt@John:1:7 @ He came as a witness, that he might bear testimony concerning the Light - so that all men might believe through him.

mnt@John:1:8 @ He was not the Light; it was to bear testimony concerning the Light that he came into being.

mnt@John:1:9 @ The true Light, which enlightens every man, was then coming into the world.

mnt@John:1:10 @ He was in the world, and through him the world came into being, yet the world knew him not.

mnt@John:1:12 @ But to all who receive him, to them he has given the right to become children of God, even to those who trust in his name;

mnt@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh and tented with us. And we gazed on his glory - glory as of the Fathers only Son - full of grace and truth.

mnt@John:1:15 @ John bore witness concerning him, and cried aloud, saying, "This is he of whom I said, He who is coming after me has been put before me, for he was before me."

mnt@John:1:17 @ For the Law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

mnt@John:1:18 @ No man has ever seen God; God, only begotten, who is in the bosom of the Father - he has interpreted him.

mnt@John:1:19 @ Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent some priests and Levites to him from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"

mnt@John:1:23 @ He said, "I am a voice of one who cries aloud in the desert, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaiah."

mnt@John:1:24 @ Now it was some of the Pharisees who had been sent to him;

mnt@John:1:28 @ This happened in Bethany, beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

mnt@John:1:30 @ This is he of whom I said, After me comes One who has been put before me, for he was before me.

mnt@John:1:35 @ Next day again, John was standing with two of his disciples.

mnt@John:1:36 @ After gazing intently on Jesus as he walked about, he said, "Look! that is the Lamb of God!"

mnt@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come, and you shall see." So they went and saw where he was staying, and spent that day with him. It was then about four oclock in the afternoon.

mnt@John:1:40 @ One of the two men who heard what John said and followed Jesus, was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter.

mnt@John:1:42 @ He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked intently at him and said. "You are Simon, son of John; you shall be called Cephas" (or Peter, which means Rock).

mnt@John:1:44 @ Now Philip belonged to Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.

mnt@John:1:45 @ Then Philip found Nathanael and told him, "We have found him about whom Moses wrote in the Law, as did the prophets - Jesus of Nazareth, Josephs son."

mnt@John:1:48 @ "How do you know me?" asked Nathanael. "Before Philip called you," replied Jesus, "when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

mnt@John:1:51 @ You shall see greater things than that! Believe me," he added, "you all shall see heaven opened wide, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man."

mnt@John:2:1 @ Now two days after this there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there;

mnt@John:2:2 @ Jesus also was invited to the wedding, and his disciples.

mnt@John:2:8 @ So they filled them brimful. Then he said, "Draw some out now, and carry it to the master of the feast."

mnt@John:2:9 @ So they carried it. And when the master of the feast had tasted of the water which had been made wine, not knowing where it came from, though the attendants who had drawn it knew, he called the bridegroom and said to him.

mnt@John:2:13 @ Now the Passover of the Jews was near, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

mnt@John:2:18 @ Then the Jews asked Jesus, "What sign are you going to show us, seeing that you do these things?"

mnt@John:2:21 @ But he was speaking about the temple of his body; and when the disciples recalled what he had said,

mnt@John:2:23 @ Now when he was in Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover, many believed in his name, when they beheld the signs which he did;

mnt@John:2:24 @ but for his part Jesus was not trusting himself to them, because he knew all men,

mnt@John:2:25 @ and did not need any ones testimony concerning man, for he himself knew what was in man.

mnt@John:3:1 @ Now there was one of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler among the Jews.

mnt@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wills, and you hear its voice, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with every one who has been born of the Spirit."

mnt@John:3:14 @ And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up,

mnt@John:3:18 @ He who trusts in him is not condemned, but he who does not trust has already been condemned, because he has not put his trust in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

mnt@John:3:22 @ After this Jesus and his disciples went into the countryside of Judea, and there he was staying with them and baptizing.

mnt@John:3:23 @ John also was baptizing in Aenon, near Salim, because there were many streams there, and people kept coming to receive baptism.

mnt@John:3:26 @ "Rabbi, see! The man who was with you on the other side of Jordan, and to whom you yourself have borne testimony, is now baptizing, and everybody is coming to him."

mnt@John:3:27 @ In reply John said. "A man cannot obtain anything unless it has been granted to him from heaven.

mnt@John:3:29 @ He who has the bride is the bridegroom, but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegrooms voice. So then this joy of mine has now complete fulfilment.

mnt@John:3:30 @ He must increase, but I must decrease.

mnt@John:3:32 @ He bears testimony to what he has heard and seen, yet no one receives his testimony.

mnt@John:3:33 @ Whoever does receive it has set his seal that God is true.

mnt@John:3:35 @ the Father loves the Son and has committed everything into his hands.

mnt@John:3:36 @ Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but he who disobeys the Son shall not see life, but he who disobeys the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him."

mnt@John:4:2 @ (though Jesus himself was not accustomed to baptize, but his disciples),

mnt@John:4:4 @ Now he had to pass through Samaria;

mnt@John:4:6 @ Jacobs Spring was there. So Jesus, tired out with his journey, was sitting thus by the spring.

mnt@John:4:7 @ It was about noon, and a woman of Samaria came to draw water.

mnt@John:4:9 @ "How is it," answered the Samaritan woman, "that you who are a Jew ask a drink from me, a woman, and a Samaritan?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

mnt@John:4:10 @ "If you had known the free gift of God," Jesus answered, "and who it is that says to you, Give me a drink, you would have asked of him, and he would have given you living water."

mnt@John:4:23 @ But an hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father is seeking such as his worshipers.

mnt@John:4:25 @ "I know," said the woman, "that Messiah is coming, who is called the Christ; when he has come he will tell us everything."

mnt@John:4:27 @ Just then his disciples came up, and were astonished that he was talking with a woman; yet not one of them asked him, "What do you want?" or "Why are you talking with her?"

mnt@John:4:29 @ "Come! see a man who has told me everything that I ever did. He cant be the Christ, can he?"

mnt@John:4:40 @ So when the Samaritans arrived, they began asking him to remain with them; and he stayed there two days.

mnt@John:4:44 @ For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

mnt@John:4:45 @ When he reached Galilee, however, the Galileans welcomed him, for they had seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they, too, had been at the feast.

mnt@John:4:46 @ So he came back again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. Now there was one of the kings officers whose son was lying ill at Capernaum.

mnt@John:4:47 @ When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and begged him to come down and heal his son who was lying at the point of death.

mnt@John:4:51 @ And when he was already on his way down, his slaves met him, saying that his boy was living.

mnt@John:4:52 @ So he asked them at what hour he had begun mend. They answered, "Yesterday, about one oclock, the fever left him."

mnt@John:5:1 @ After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

mnt@John:5:3 @ It has five colonnades. In these there used to lie a great crowd of sick people - blind, lame, paralyzed.

mnt@John:5:5 @ And there was one man there for thirty-eight years in his infirmity.

mnt@John:5:9 @ Instantly the man became well, and he took up his bed and started to walk. Now it was Sabbath on that day;

mnt@John:5:12 @ "Who is it," they asked, "that said to you, take up your bed and go walking away?"

mnt@John:5:13 @ But he who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had moved away, as there was a crowd in that place.

mnt@John:5:15 @ The man went to and told the Jews that it was Jesus who made him well;

mnt@John:5:17 @ But he answered them, "My Father has continued working until now, and I am working too."

mnt@John:5:18 @ For this reason the Jews continued to seek the more eagerly to put him to death, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was actually speaking of God as his own Father, thus making himself of Gods equal.

mnt@John:5:21 @ "For just as the Father raises the dead and makes them alive, even so the Son makes whom he will alive.

mnt@John:5:22 @ "The Father indeed does not judge any one, but has given all judgment to the Son,

mnt@John:5:23 @ "in order that all may honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor Son, does not honor the Father who sent him.

mnt@John:5:24 @ "I tell you solemnly that he who listens to my messages and believes Him who sent me, has eternal life. He will not come under condemnation, but has passed out of death into life.

mnt@John:5:26 @ "For as the Father has life in himself, so also has he granted to the Son to have life in himself.

mnt@John:5:27 @ "And he has given him authority to pronounce judgment, because he is Son of man.

mnt@John:5:30 @ "I can of my own self do nothing. As I listen, I judge, and my own judgment is just, because I am not seeking my own will, but the will of Him who sent me.

mnt@John:5:33 @ "You yourselves sent to John, and he has been and is a witness to the truth.

mnt@John:5:35 @ "That man was the Lamp-burning and shining - and you were willing for a time rejoice in his light.

mnt@John:5:36 @ "But I have testimony greater than that of John; for the work which the Father has given me to bring to completion - the work which I am doing - bears testimony concerning me, that the Father has sent me.

mnt@John:5:37 @ "And the Father who sent me has himself borne testimony concerning me. None of you has heard his at any time or seen him,

mnt@John:6:1 @ After this Jesus went away across the Sea of Galilee (that is the lake of Tiberias).

mnt@John:6:2 @ A great crowd were following him, because they witnessed the signs which he was continually performing among those who were ill.

mnt@John:6:3 @ Then Jesus walked up the hills and sat down there with his disciples. Now the Jewish feast, the Passover, was at hand.

mnt@John:6:4 @ Accordingly when he looked up, and perceived a great crowd was coming unto him,

mnt@John:6:9 @ "There is a lad who has five barley loaves and a couple of fish; but what is that among so many?"

mnt@John:6:10 @ "Make the men sit down," said Jesus. The ground was covered with thick grass; so the men sat down, in numbers about five thousand. "of righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you will no longer see me;

mnt@John:6:11 @ Then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks he distributed them among those who were seated; in like manner also of the fish, as much as they wished,

mnt@John:6:12 @ and when they were satisfied, he said to his disciples, "Gather up the fragments that are left, so that nothing may be wasted."

mnt@John:6:13 @ So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves - the broken pieces that were left after they had eaten.

mnt@John:6:18 @ Jesus had not yet come to them, and the sea began to rise, because a strong wind was blowing.

mnt@John:6:22 @ The crowd that remained on the other side of the sea had seen that there was only one small boat there, and that Jesus had not gone aboard with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away by themselves.

mnt@John:6:23 @ So, on the following day, when boats came from Tiberias near the place were they had eaten bread, after the Lord had given thanks, they got into the boats themselves,

mnt@John:6:27 @ "Labor not for food which perishes, but for the food that endures eternal life - that which the Son of man will give you; for on the Father - God - has set his seal."

mnt@John:6:28 @ "What are we to do habitually," they asked him, "that we may keep working the words of God?"

mnt@John:6:29 @ "This is the work of God," answered Jesus, "that you believe on him whom He has sent you."

mnt@John:6:31 @ "Our fathers ate manna in the wilderness, as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat."

mnt@John:6:36 @ "But as I told you, you have seen me, and yet you do not believe.

mnt@John:6:39 @ "And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should not lose one of all those whom he has given me, but should raise them up at the last day.

mnt@John:6:40 @ "For this is my Fathers will, that every one who beholds the Son and believes on him, shall have eternal life. and I will raise him up at the last day."

mnt@John:6:41 @ Then the Jews began to find fault with Jesus, because he said, "I am the bread which comes down out of heaven," and they kept asking.

mnt@John:6:44 @ answered Jesus; "no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him; then I will raise him up on the last day.

mnt@John:6:45 @ "It is written in the Prophets, "And they shall all of them be taught of God. Every one who has listened to the father and learns from him, comes to me.

mnt@John:6:46 @ "Not that any one has seen the Father, except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father.

mnt@John:6:47 @ "I tell you solemnly that he who believes has eternal life.

mnt@John:6:51 @ "I myself am the living bread that has come down from heaven. Any one who eats this bread will live forever; and moreover, the bread which I will give is my flesh, given for the life of the world."

mnt@John:6:54 @ "He who feeds upon my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.

mnt@John:6:59 @ He spoke these words while in the synagogue, while he was teaching in Capernaum.

mnt@John:6:62 @ "Does this displease you? What then if you were to behold the Son of man ascending to where he was before?

mnt@John:6:64 @ "Yet there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was who should betray him.

mnt@John:6:68 @ Simon Peter answered. "To whom shall we go Master? You have words of eternal life;

mnt@John:6:71 @ Now Jesus was speaking of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot; for Judas was to betray him, although he was one of the Twelve.

mnt@John:7:2 @ When the time of the Jewish feast of Tabernacles drew near,

mnt@John:7:8 @ Do you go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fully come."

mnt@John:7:9 @ After saying this, he remained in Galilee; but after his brothers had gone up to feast,

mnt@John:7:10 @ then he went too - not openly, but as it were a secret.

mnt@John:7:11 @ The Jews meanwhile kept looking for him at feast, and saying, "Where is he?" "I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own Name these whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are one.

mnt@John:7:12 @ and there was much disputing about him among the crowd. Some would say, "He is a good man." Others. "No! he is misleading the people." "While I was with them I kept them by the power of thy name which thou hast given me. I guarded them, and none of them was lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

mnt@John:7:13 @ No one, however, was speaking openly about him, for fear of the Jews. "But now I am coming to thee, and I am speaking these things while I am in the world, so that they may have my joy in all its fulness in themselves.

mnt@John:7:14 @ But when it was already the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the Temple and began to teach. "I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

mnt@John:7:15 @ The Jews were amazed. They said, "How does this fellow know the sacred writings when he has never learned them?" "I am not asking that thou wilt take them out of the world, but that thou wilt protect them from the Evil One.

mnt@John:7:16 @ In reply Jesus said to them; "My teaching is not mine, but is his who sent me. "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

mnt@John:7:21 @ Jesus answered them. "There was one thing I did, and you are all amazed.

mnt@John:7:22 @ "Consider, therefore, Moses has given you circumcision - not that Moses originated it, but the fathers - and you are accustomed to circumcise a child even on the Sabbath.

mnt@John:7:28 @ So Jesus cried aloud as he was teaching in the Temple, and said. "You both know me and you know where I am from; and I am not come on my own authority, but he who sent me is trustworthy, and him you do not know.

mnt@John:7:30 @ Then they kept seeking to arrest him, but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

mnt@John:7:31 @ But many of the crowd believed on him and began to say, "The Christ, when he comes, will he do more signs than this man has done?"

mnt@John:7:37 @ Now the last day, that the great day of the feast, Jesus stood up and cried in a loud voice.

mnt@John:7:38 @ "If any man thirst let him come to me and drink. From the heart of him who believes in me will flow, as the Scripture said, rivers of living water."

mnt@John:7:39 @ Now he said this concerning the Spirit whom those who believed in him should receive. For the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

mnt@John:7:45 @ and they asked them, "Why have you not brought him?"

mnt@John:7:47 @ "Surely you have not been led astray, have you? answered the Pharisees.

mnt@John:7:48 @ "Has any one of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees?

mnt@John:7:49 @ "As for this mob who do not understand the Law, they are accursed!"

mnt@John:8:2 @ At dawn, however, he came back to the Temple, where the people came to him in crowds. He had taken his seat and was teaching them,

mnt@John:8:4 @ "Rabbi, this woman has been found in the very act of adultery.

mnt@John:8:19 @ "Where is your Father?" they asked him. "You have neither known me nor my Father," answered Jesus. "If you had known me, you would have known my father also."

mnt@John:8:20 @ He said these words in the Treasury, while he was teaching in the Temple; yet no one arrested him, because his hour was not yet come.

mnt@John:8:25 @ "Who are you?" then they asked him. "What I am telling you from the beginning," Jesus answered.

mnt@John:8:28 @ so Jesus added. "When you lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am He; and that I do nothing on my own authority, but that I speak just as the Father has taught me,

mnt@John:8:52 @ "Now we know that you have a demon," exclaimed the Jews. Abraham died, and so did the prophets; and yet you say, If any man obeys my teaching he shall never taste death.

mnt@John:8:56 @ "Your father Abraham rejoiced that he should see my day; and he saw it and was glad."

mnt@John:9:1 @ Now as he was passing along he saw a man, blind from birth.

mnt@John:9:2 @ "Rabbi," his disciples asked him, "who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

mnt@John:9:7 @ Then he said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (a word which means "sent"). So the man went and washed his eyes, and came back seeing.

mnt@John:9:8 @ Upon this the neighbors and those who used to know him by sight as a beggar, began asking, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"

mnt@John:9:10 @ So they asked him, "How then were your eyes opened?"

mnt@John:9:11 @ He answered. "The man who is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to Siloam and wash;so I went and washed and received my sight."

mnt@John:9:12 @ "Where is he?" they asked. "I do not know," answered the man.

mnt@John:9:14 @ Now it was on the Sabbath that Jesus had made clay and opened his eyes;

mnt@John:9:15 @ so the Pharisees again began to ask him questions about how he had regained his sight; and he said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and now I see."

mnt@John:9:17 @ So there was a difference of opinion among them. Accordingly they said to the blind man, "What have you to say about him, now that he has opened your eyes?" "He is a prophet," he answered.

mnt@John:9:18 @ The Jews, however, did not believe about him that he was blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man whose sight had been restored,

mnt@John:9:19 @ and questioned them. "Is this your son," they said, "who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"

mnt@John:9:20 @ Then in reply his parents said. "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

mnt@John:9:21 @ "but how he now sees we do not know, nor do we know who has opened his eyes. Ask him, himself. He is of age. He will speak for himself."

mnt@John:9:22 @ This his parents said because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if any one should confess that he was the Christ, he should be expelled from the synagogue.

mnt@John:9:23 @ It was because this that his parents said. "He is of age. Ask him, himself."

mnt@John:9:25 @ "Give glory to God! we know that this man is a sinner." Upon this the blind man answered. "I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know, that once I was blind, and know I can see."

mnt@John:9:26 @ "What was it he did to you?" they asked him; "How did he open your eyes?"

mnt@John:9:30 @ "This is truly astonishing," said the man in reply, "that you do not know where he is from, and yet he has opened my eyes.

mnt@John:9:32 @ "Since the beginning of the world such a thing as opening the eyes of one who was born blind was never heard of.

mnt@John:9:34 @ They answered, "You were wholly born in sins, and do you teach us?" Then they cast him out.

mnt@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of man?"

mnt@John:9:40 @ Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and asked, "We are not blind, are we?"

mnt@John:10:4 @ "When he has brought all his own sheep, he walks before them and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.

mnt@John:10:6 @ Jesus told them this parable, but they did not understand what he was talking about; so he said to them again.

mnt@John:10:9 @ "I am the Door. Whoever enters by me shall be saved, and he shall go in and come out and find pasture.

mnt@John:10:15 @ just as the Father knows me, I know the Father, and I lay down my life for the sheep.

mnt@John:10:22 @ Then came the feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem.

mnt@John:10:23 @ It was winter, and Jesus used to walk in the Temple, in Solomons Portico.

mnt@John:10:24 @ Then all the Jews encircled him and kept asking him. "How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."

mnt@John:10:29 @ "My Father who has given them to me is stronger than all, and no one can snatch them out of my Fathers hand.

mnt@John:10:36 @ do you mean to tell me, whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, You are blaspheming, because I said, I am the Son of God?

mnt@John:10:41 @ Many who came to him said, "John did not perform any signs, but everything he said about this man was true."

mnt@John:11:1 @ Now a man named Lazarus was ill. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha

mnt@John:11:2 @ - it was Mary who anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.

mnt@John:11:3 @ So the sisters sent to him, saying. "Master, see who you hold dear is ill."

mnt@John:11:6 @ However, when he heard that he was ill,

mnt@John:11:7 @ he still remained where he was for two days; then after that he said to his disciples, "Let us go back again to Judea."

mnt@John:11:8 @ "Rabbi," answered his disciples, "it was but just now that the Jews were trying to stone you, and are you going there again?"

mnt@John:11:11 @ This he said, then told them, "Lazarus, our friend, has fallen asleep, but I am going to wake him."

mnt@John:11:12 @ "Master, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well," replied the disciples.

mnt@John:11:13 @ Now Jesus had been speaking concerning his death, but they thought that he was talking about natural sleep.

mnt@John:11:15 @ "Lazarus is dead; and for your sakes I am glad I was not there, in order that you may believe. Come, let us go to him."

mnt@John:11:16 @ Upon this Thomas, who was called "The Twin," said to his fellow disciples, "Let us go too, that we may die with him."

mnt@John:11:18 @ Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, only about two miles away;

mnt@John:11:20 @ So when Martha learned that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him, but Mary remained sitting in the house.

mnt@John:11:21 @ Then Martha said to Jesus. "Master, had you been here my brother would not have died;

mnt@John:11:22 @ but even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."

mnt@John:11:24 @ Martha answered, "I know that he will rise in the resurrection, at the Last Day."

mnt@John:11:25 @ "I am the resurrection and the life, "said Jesus. "He who believes in me, even if he has died, shall live.

mnt@John:11:27 @ "Yes, Master," she answered, "I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

mnt@John:11:28 @ With these words she went away to call her sister Mary, saying privately, "The Teacher is here and is asking for you."

mnt@John:11:30 @ Jesus had not yet arrived in the village, but was still at the place where Martha met him.

mnt@John:11:31 @ Then the Jews who were in the house trying to console her, when they saw that Mary rose quickly and went out, followed her, because they thought she was going to the tomb to weep there.

mnt@John:11:32 @ When Mary came to the place where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying, "Master had you been here, my brother would not have died."

mnt@John:11:33 @ Then when Jesus saw her sobbing, and the Jews likewise who accompanied her, sobbing, he shuddered with indignation in his spirit, and was deeply agitated.

mnt@John:11:34 @ "Where have you laid him?" he said. "Master, come and see," they answered.

mnt@John:11:37 @ "Could not this man, who has opened the eyes of the blind man, have prevented this man also from dying?"

mnt@John:11:38 @ Jesus therefore, again shuddering in himself with indignation, came to the tomb, which was a cave with a stone lying upon it.

mnt@John:11:39 @ "Roll away the stone," said Jesus. "Master," said Martha, the sister of the dead man "he is offensive by this time, for he has been four days in the tomb."

mnt@John:11:42 @ "Father, I thank thee that thou hast listened to me. And I knew that thou art ever listening to me, but for the sake of the crowd who are standing about, I said it, in order that they may believe that thou hast sent me."

mnt@John:11:49 @ But one of their number, Caiaphas by name, who was high priest that year, said to them,

mnt@John:11:51 @ now he did not say this of his own accord; but as high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus was about to die in behalf of the nation,

mnt@John:11:55 @ and there remained with his disciples. Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many people went up from the country to Jerusalem for purification before the Passover.

mnt@John:11:56 @ So they kept looking for Jesus and saying to one another, as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think - that he will not come to the feast at all?"

mnt@John:11:57 @ Now the chief priests and Pharisees had given orders that if any one knew where he was. he should give information, so that they might arrest him.

mnt@John:12:1 @ So then Jesus came six days before the Passover, to Bethany, where Lazarus was whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

mnt@John:12:2 @ So they gave a dinner for him there, and Martha served it; but Lazarus was one of those who reclined with him at table.

mnt@John:12:3 @ Then Mary took a pound of pure spikenard, very costly, and poured it over his feet, and wiped his feet with her hair, and the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

mnt@John:12:4 @ Then said Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, who was about to betray him,

mnt@John:12:5 @ "Why was not this perfume sold for fifty dollars, and the proceeds given to the poor?"

mnt@John:12:6 @ This he said not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and, carrying the purse,

mnt@John:12:7 @ used to purloin what was put in it. Then said Jesus. "Let her alone. Against the day of my burial has she kept this;

mnt@John:12:9 @ When the great mass of the Jews learned that Jesus was there, they came not alone because of Jesus, but to see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

mnt@John:12:11 @ because it was on his account that many of the Jews were leaving them, and beginning to believe on Jesus.

mnt@John:12:12 @ Next day the big crowd who had come up for the Passover heard that Jesus was coming into Jerusalem,

mnt@John:12:14 @ And Jesus found a young ass and seated himself on it, as it is written,

mnt@John:12:15 @ Fear not, daughter of Zion, Behold thy King cometh seated upon an asss colt.

mnt@John:12:17 @ Meanwhile the crowd which was with him when he summoned Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead, kept witnessing.

mnt@John:12:18 @ For this reason, too, the crowd came to meet him, because they had heard about this sign which he had done.

mnt@John:12:20 @ Now there were certain Greeks among those who had come up to worship during the Passover feast;

mnt@John:12:29 @ Then the crowd who stood around and heard it, said, "It thundered!" But others said, "An angel has spoken to him."

mnt@John:12:33 @ (In saying this he was signifying by what kind of death he was to die.)

mnt@John:12:39 @ This was why they could not believe, because Isaiah said again.

mnt@John:12:48 @ He who rejects me, and does not receive my words, has indeed a judge. The message which I have spoken, that shall judge him in the Last Day,

mnt@John:12:50 @ And I know that his commandment is eternal life. So whatever I speak, I speak as the Father has told me."

mnt@John:13:1 @ Now just before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour was come when he should leave this world to go to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, showed forth his love to the end.;38 "Your life you will lay down for me? In solemn truth I tell you, the cock shall not crow before you have three times disowned me."

mnt@John:13:2 @ So while supper was proceeding, and the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him,

mnt@John:13:3 @ Jesus, knowing that the Father had given everything into his hands, and that he was come from God,

mnt@John:13:4 @ and was now going to God, rose from supper, laid aside his upper garments, and took a towel and girded himself.

mnt@John:13:5 @ Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples and to wipe them with the towel with which he had girded himself.

mnt@John:13:6 @ Then he came to Simon Peter, who said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?"

mnt@John:13:8 @ Peter answered, "No, never shall you wash my feet." "If I do not wash you," said Jesus, "you have no part in me."

mnt@John:13:10 @ Jesus said. "He who has bathed needs only to have his feet washed, and he is altogether clean; and you are clean, but not all of you."

mnt@John:13:11 @ (For he knew who should betray him, for that reason he said that they were not every one of them clean.)

mnt@John:13:12 @ So after he had washed their feet, and had put on his upper garments again, and taken his place, he said to them.

mnt@John:13:13 @ "Do you understand what I have been doing to you? You call me Teacher and Master,and you say well, for such I am.

mnt@John:13:14 @ If then I have washed your feet, I the Master and the Teacher, you also ought to wash one anothers feet,

mnt@John:13:16 @ In solemn truth I tell you that a slave is not greater than his master, neither is a messenger greater than the one who sends him.

mnt@John:13:18 @ I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, which says. "He who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.

mnt@John:13:19 @ "From this time forward, I tell you before it comes to pass, that when it is come to pass you may believe who I am.

mnt@John:13:21 @ When he had spoken thus, Jesus was deeply moved. He testified and said, "In solemn truth I tell you that one of you will betray me."

mnt@John:13:23 @ There was reclining upon Jesus breast one of the disciples whom he loved.

mnt@John:13:24 @ So Simon Peter beckoned to him, saying, "Ask who it is about whom he is speaking."

mnt@John:13:25 @ So that disciples just leaned back against Jesus breast and said to him, "Lord, who is it?"

mnt@John:13:27 @ So when he had dipped the bread, he took it and gave it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon. And after he had received the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. "What you do, do quickly," said Jesus.

mnt@John:13:29 @ for some were thinking, as Judas kept the purse, that Jesus meant to tell him, "Buy the things that we need for the feast," or that he should give something to the poor.

mnt@John:13:30 @ When he had taken the piece of bread, Judas went out immediately; and it was night.

mnt@John:13:31 @ So when he was gone, Jesus said. "Now has the Son of man been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.

mnt@John:13:32 @ If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and straightway will he glorify him.

mnt@John:13:33 @ "My little children, I am only to be with you a little longer. You will seek me; just as I said to the Jews, Where I go you cannot come, so now I say to you.

mnt@John:13:36 @ Simon Peter asked him, "Lord, where are you going?" "Where I am going," answered Jesus, "you cannot follow me now; but you shall follow me later."

mnt@John:13:37 @ "Why cannot I follow you now, Master?" said Peter. "I will lay down my life for you." Jesus answered him.

mnt@John:14:5 @ "We do not know where you are going Lord," said Thomas, "so how can we know the way?"

mnt@John:14:9 @ "Have I been so long among you, and yet you, Philip, have you not recognized me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, Cause us to see the Father?

mnt@John:18:1 @ After he had spoken these words Jesus went forth with his disciples to a place across the Ravine of the Cedars, where there was a garden into which he and his disciples went.

mnt@John:18:2 @ Judas the Traitor also knew this place; for Jesus and his disciples often met there.

mnt@John:18:3 @ So after getting troops and some Temple police from the chief priests and Pharisees, Judas came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

mnt@John:18:4 @ Then Jesus, knowing all that was coming upon him, went forth to meet them, and asked them, "Who is it that you are looking for?"

mnt@John:18:5 @ "For Jesus of Nazareth," they answered. He said to them, "I am he." (Now Judas also, the betrayer, was standing with them.)

mnt@John:18:9 @ "(In order that the word which he had spoken might be fulfilled, "Of those whom thou hast given me I have not lost one.")

mnt@John:18:11 @ (The slaves name was Malchus.) Then Jesus said to Peter. "Put up your sword in its sheath. the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?"

mnt@John:18:13 @ and led him to Annas first. (For Annas was the Father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was the high priest that year -

mnt@John:18:15 @ Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple who was known to the high priest, and they went in with Jesus into the court of the high priests palace.

mnt@John:18:16 @ But Peter took his stand outside, near the door. So the other disciple who was known to the high priest came out and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought Peter in.

mnt@John:18:18 @ Now the slaves and the attendants were standing and warming themselves about a charcoal fire, which they had made because it was cold; and Peter also stood with them, and was warming himself.

mnt@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him. "I have spoken to all the world openly. I always taught in a synagogue and in the temple, places where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and in secret I have spoken nothing.

mnt@John:18:21 @ "Why do you question me? Ask those who heard what I have said to them; these witnesses here know what I said."

mnt@John:18:22 @ When he had spoken these words, one of the police standing by gave him a blow with his hand, saying as he did so, "Is that the way you answer the high priest?"

mnt@John:18:23 @ Jesus replied "If I have said anything wrong, give evidence concerning the wrong; but if I said what was true, why do you strike me?"

mnt@John:18:24 @ Then Annas sent him in chains to Caiaphas, the high priest.

mnt@John:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, "You are not also one of his disciples, are you not?" He denied it, saying "I am not."

mnt@John:18:28 @ From the house of Caiaphas they took Jesus to the Praetorium, and it was dawn. They themselves would not enter the Praetorium, in order that they might not be ceremonially defiled, but might be able to eat the Passover.

mnt@John:18:29 @ So Pilate came outside to them and asked, "What charge do you bring against this man?"

mnt@John:18:32 @ The Jews answered him, "We are not allowed to put anyone to death" (that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled in which he predicted the kind of death he was to die).

mnt@John:18:37 @ "You are a king, then? You!" said Pilate. "You say truly that I am a king." answered Jesus, "for this purpose I was born, and to this end came I into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Every man who is of the truth listens to my voice."

mnt@John:18:38 @ Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" As he said this, he went outside again to the Jews and said to them.

mnt@John:18:40 @ Then they all shouted again. "No, not him! Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.

mnt@John:19:5 @ Then as Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, "BEHOLD, THE MAN!"

mnt@John:19:8 @ Now when Pilate heard these words he was more alarmed than ever,

mnt@John:19:11 @ "You would have no power over me," answered Jesus, "unless it had been given you from above. For this reason he who has betrayed me to you has the greater sin."

mnt@John:19:12 @ After that Pilate began to seek to release him, but the Jews shouted out. "If you release this man you are no friend of the Emperor. Any man who makes himself out to be king is a rebel against the Emperor."

mnt@John:19:14 @ And it was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six oclock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

mnt@John:19:19 @ And Pilate moreover wrote an inscription and placed it above the cross. What he wrote was, "JESUS, THE NAZARENE, KING OF THE JEWS"

mnt@John:19:20 @ This inscription was read by many of the Jews, because the place where they crucified Jesus was near the city, and the inscription was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.

mnt@John:19:23 @ After the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, to each soldier a part, and the tunic. Now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom;

mnt@John:21:15 @ When they were through breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?" "Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me." he answered. Jesus said to him, "Feed my lambs."

mnt@Acts:9:22 @ But Saul gained more and more influence, and kept putting the Jews who lived in Damascus to confusion by his proof that Jesus was the Christ.

mnt@Acts:9:24 @ but information of their plot was given Saul, and although they kept watch day and night on the gates, in order to make away with him,

mnt@Acts:9:25 @ his disciples took him by night, and let him down over the wall, lowering him in a basket.

mnt@Acts:9:26 @ So he came to Jerusalem, and attempted to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, because they did not believe that he was a disciple.

mnt@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and told them how Saul had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him; and also how he had preached the Name of the Lord Jesus boldly at Damascus.

mnt@Acts:9:28 @ Henceforth Saul was one of them, going in and out of the city, and speaking fearlessly in the Name of the Lord.

mnt@Acts:9:31 @ Now throughout the whole of Judea, Galilee, and Samaria the Church continued to enjoy peace and to be spiritually built up. It was increasing in members also, as it kept walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.

mnt@Acts:9:32 @ Now Peter, as he was going from town to town, came down also to the saints who lived in Lydda.

mnt@Acts:9:33 @ Here he found a man named Aeneas, bedridden for eight years, a paralytic.

mnt@Acts:9:34 @ Peter said to him. "Aeneas, Jesus Christ cures you! Rise and make your own bed!"

mnt@Acts:9:36 @ Among the disciples at Joppa was a woman named Tabitha - which may be translated Dorcas or "Gazelle" - a woman whose life was full of good works and almsgiving, which she was doing continually.

mnt@Acts:9:37 @ She, as it happened, was taken ill just at that time, and died. After washing her body, they laid it in an upper room.

mnt@Acts:9:38 @ And as Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, when they heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him with the entreaty, "Delay not to come to us."

mnt@Acts:9:39 @ So Peter arose and went with them. On his arrival they took him up- stairs, and all the widows stood near him, weeping, and showing him the cloaks and garments which Dorcas used to make, while she was still with them.

mnt@Acts:10:1 @ Now there was at Caesarea a man named Cornelius, a captain in the Italian regiment.

mnt@Acts:10:2 @ He was a devout man and God-fearing, and so were all his household. He gave many alms to the people, and constantly prayed to God.

mnt@Acts:10:6 @ "He is staying as a guest with Simon, a tanner, whose house is near the sea."

mnt@Acts:10:7 @ And after the angel who was speaking to him was gone, he called two of his household servants and a devout soldier who was in constant attendance upon him,

mnt@Acts:10:15 @ And again a second time came to him a voice, saying, "What God has cleansed you must not call common."

mnt@Acts:10:16 @ This happened three times; and immediately the sail was drawn up into the sky.

mnt@Acts:10:17 @ Now while Peter was greatly perplexed to know what the vision which he had been sent by Cornelius, and had made inquiries for the house of Simon, stood at the gate,

mnt@Acts:10:18 @ and called and asked whether Simon who was called Peter was lodging there.

mnt@Acts:10:19 @ So the Spirit said to Peter, who was still pondering over the vision.

mnt@Acts:10:21 @ So Peter went down to the men and said. "I am the man you are looking for. What is the reason of your coming?"

mnt@Acts:10:22 @ "Cornelius," they answered, "a captain, a devout man, and God- fearing, of whom the whole, Jewish nation speaks well, was instructed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house, and to listen to your message."

mnt@Acts:10:24 @ and the day after that they reached Caesarea. There Cornelius was waiting for them, and had brought together all his relatives and intimate friends.

mnt@Acts:10:27 @ And as he talked with him, he went in and found a large company assembled.

mnt@Acts:10:28 @ To them he said. "You know, yourselves, that it is illegal for a Jew to associate with or to visit one of another nation; but God has taught me that I should not call any man common or unclean. For this reason, when sent for, I came without demur.

mnt@Acts:10:29 @ "I ask therefore why you sent for me."

mnt@Acts:10:30 @ Cornelius answered. "Three days ago, at this very hour, I was praying in my house at three oclock in the afternoon, when suddenly a man in a shining robe stood by me,

mnt@Acts:10:44 @ While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit fell on all who were listening to the message.

mnt@Acts:10:45 @ And all the Jewish believers who had accompanied Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles also.

mnt@Acts:10:47 @ Then Peter said, "Can any one refuse water for the baptism of these men who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?"

mnt@Acts:11:5 @ "I was in the city of Joppa, praying, and while in a trance I saw a vision; a certain vessel descending, what seemed to be an enormous sail let down to me,

mnt@Acts:11:6 @ and while I gazed at it, I examined it carefully, and saw the quadrupeds of the earth and the wild beasts and creeping things and the wild birds.

mnt@Acts:11:18 @ On hearing this they held their peace and glorified God, saying, "Forsooth then, to the Gentiles also God has granted repentance unto life."

mnt@Acts:11:19 @ Then those who had been scattered by the trouble that arose over Stephen, traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch; but they preached the word to none except Jews.

mnt@Acts:11:21 @ The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number who believed turned to the Lord.

mnt@Acts:11:22 @ When news of this reached the ears of the church at Jerusalem, they sent Barnabas as far as Antioch.

mnt@Acts:11:23 @ When he arrived, and saw the grace of God, he was glad, and he encouraged them all to remain faithful to the Lord, with full purpose of heart;

mnt@Acts:11:24 @ for he was a good man, and full of faith and the Holy Spirit. And a great multitude was added to the Lord.

mnt@Acts:11:25 @ Then Barnabas visited Tarsus, to try to find Saul,

mnt@Acts:11:26 @ and when he had found him he brought him to Antioch, where for a whole year they were guests of the church, and taught many people. And it was in Antioch that the disciples first received the name of "Christians."

mnt@Acts:11:28 @ One of them, who was Agabus, rose up, and being instructed by the Spirit, predicted that a great famine was about to come upon the whole inhabited earth. (It came in the reign of Claudius.)

mnt@Acts:11:30 @ This they did, forwarding their contributions to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.

mnt@Acts:12:3 @ And when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. (This was during the days of unleavened bread.)

mnt@Acts:12:4 @ He had him arrested and thrown in prison, and put under guard of sixteen soldiers. He intended, after the Passover, to bring him forth to the people.

mnt@Acts:12:5 @ So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer to God was made by the church for him.

mnt@Acts:12:6 @ Now when Herod was about to bring him forth, on that very night, while Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison,

mnt@Acts:12:9 @ So Peter went out, following him, but did not realize that what the angel was doing was real, but supposed that he was seeing a vision.

mnt@Acts:12:10 @ And when they had passed the first guard and the second, they came to the iron gate that led to the city. This opened to them of its own accord; and they went out passed on through one street; and suddenly the angel left him.

mnt@Acts:12:11 @ Peter, coming to himself, said, "Now I know for a certainty that the Lord has sent his angel and released me from the hand of Herod, and from all that the Jewish people were anticipating."

mnt@Acts:12:12 @ So, after he had thought things over, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John, surnamed Mark, where a large number of people were assembled, praying.

mnt@Acts:12:14 @ And when she recognized Peters voice, for very joy she did not open the door, but ran in and told them that Peter was standing in front of the gate.

mnt@Acts:12:15 @ "You are mad," they said. But she confidently insisted that it was so. "It is his angel," they said.

mnt@Acts:12:16 @ Meanwhile Peter continued to knock, until at last they opened the door, and were amazed to see that it was really he.

mnt@Acts:12:18 @ When morning came there was no small stir among the soldiers as to what could possibly have become of Peter.

mnt@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod was violently displeased with the people of Tyre and Sidon. So they came to him, with one accord, and after conciliating Blastus, the royal chamberlain, they begged for peace because their country depended upon the kings country for its food supply.

mnt@Acts:12:25 @ and after discharging their mission, Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, bringing with them John, surnamed Mark.

mnt@Acts:13:1 @ Now there were in the church in Antioch prophets and teachers; Barnabas and Symeon, surnamed "the Black," Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen, the foster-brother of Herod the Tetrarch, and Saul.

mnt@Acts:13:2 @ And as they were worshiping the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Spirit said to them, "Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them."

mnt@Acts:13:3 @ So after fasting and praying, they laid their hands on them, and let them go.

mnt@Acts:13:6 @ They had John Mark as an assistant; and after going through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain Jewish sorcerer and false prophet, named Bar-Jesus,

mnt@Acts:13:7 @ who belonged to the suite of the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. He summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.

mnt@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas, "the sorcerer," for that is the translation of his name, opposed them, and tried to divert the proconsul from the faith.

mnt@Acts:13:11 @ "The Lords hand is now upon you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a season." Instantly there fell on him a mist and a darkness, and groping about, he sought some one to lead him by the hand.

mnt@Acts:13:12 @ Then the proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed. He was astounded at the teaching of the Lord.

mnt@Acts:13:14 @ Then they themselves, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch in Pisidia. Here they went into the synagogue on the Sabbath Day and sat down.

mnt@Acts:13:19 @ "and when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance for about four hundred and fifty years.

mnt@Acts:13:44 @ On the next Sabbath almost the entire city was gathered together to know the word of God.

mnt@Acts:13:46 @ So Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly. "It was necessary," they said, "first to proclaim the word of God to you. But since you push it away from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

mnt@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews urged on the devout women of high rank, and the leading citizens, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of the district,

mnt@Acts:14:4 @ But the mass of the citys people was divided; part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

mnt@Acts:14:9 @ He was listening while Paul was preaching, and Paul, looking intently at him, and perceiving that he had faith to be made whole,

mnt@Acts:14:12 @ And they began to call Barnabas "Zeus," and Paul, since he was the principal speaker, "Hermes";

mnt@Acts:14:13 @ and the priest of Zeus, whose temple was at the entrance to the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and along with the crowds was about to offer sacrifices.

mnt@Acts:14:14 @ But when the apostles, Paul and Barnabas, heard of it, they rent their garments and rushed out among the crowd, shouting and crying.

mnt@Acts:14:17 @ and yet he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness."

mnt@Acts:14:20 @ But as the disciples collected around him, he rose and went back into the city. The next day he went off with Barnabas into Derbe;

mnt@Acts:14:23 @ They chose elders for them in every church, after prayer and fasting, and commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

mnt@Acts:14:24 @ Then passing through Pisidia they came to Pamphylia and,

mnt@Acts:14:27 @ On their arrival they assembled the church and reported all things that God had done through them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.

mnt@Acts:15:2 @ Now when dispute and controversy sprang up between them and Paul and Barnabas, the brethren appointed Paul and Barnabas, and certain others, to go up to Jerusalem to see the apostles and elders about this question.

mnt@Acts:15:3 @ So the church saw them off on their journey, and they passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria. Here they set forth the conversion of the Gentiles, and brought great joy to all the brothers.

mnt@Acts:15:8 @ "And God, who knows the hearts of all, gave this testimony in their behalf, by bestowing upon them the Holy Spirit just as he did upon us;

mnt@Acts:15:22 @ Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, together with the whole church, to select some of their number, and to send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. The men chosen were Judas called Bar- Sabbas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren.

mnt@Acts:15:24 @ "as we have heard that some of your number who went out from us have troubled you with words and upset your souls, without having received any such instruction from us;

mnt@Acts:15:34 @ Silas, however, stayed with them.

mnt@Acts:15:35 @ Paul and Barnabas also stayed in Antioch teaching and proclaiming the word of the Lord, in company with others.

mnt@Acts:15:36 @ And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Let is go back and visit the brothers in every city in which we have proclaimed the word of the Lord. Let us see how they fare."

mnt@Acts:15:37 @ Now Barnabas wanted to take with them John, who was called Mark.

mnt@Acts:15:39 @ So there arose a sharp irritation, so that they parted company; Barnabas taking Mark with him, sailed away to Cyprus;

mnt@Acts:15:40 @ while Paul chose Silas, and set forth commended by the brothers to the grace of God.

mnt@Acts:16:1 @ And he came also to Derbe and Lystra, where there was a certain disciple named Timothy, the son of a believing Jewess, and of a Greek father.

mnt@Acts:16:2 @ He was well spoken of by the brothers in Lystra and Iconiun.

mnt@Acts:16:3 @ Now Paul, wishing that this man should accompany him on his journey, took him and circumcised him because of the local Jews, who all knew that his father was a Greek.

mnt@Acts:16:4 @ And as they went on their way through the cities they handed them the resolutions which the apostles and the elders in Jerusalem had ordained for them to keep.

mnt@Acts:16:5 @ So the churches were strengthened in the faith and continued to increase in number daily.

mnt@Acts:16:6 @ Then they went through Phrygia and Galatia, the Holy Spirit having forbidden them to proclaim the message in Asia.

mnt@Acts:16:7 @ When they got as far as Mysia, they attempted to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not permit it;

mnt@Acts:16:8 @ and so they passed by Mysia and went on down to Troas.

mnt@Acts:16:11 @ So we set sail from Troas and ran a straight course to Samothrace. The next day we arrived in Neapolis,

mnt@Acts:16:13 @ On the Sabbath Day we went outside the city gate, to a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down and talked to the women who had gathered there.

mnt@Acts:16:14 @ Among them was a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, who belonged to the town of Thyatira. She, since she was a worshiper of God, listened to us, and the Lord opened her heart to attend to what Paul said.

mnt@Acts:16:15 @ When she was baptized, and her household, she urged us, saying, "If in your judgment I am a believer in the Lord, come and stay at my house." And she compelled us to come.

mnt@Acts:16:16 @ Now as we were going to the place of prayer, a certain slave girl met us, who had a spirit of divination, and who brought her masters great gain by fortune-telling.

mnt@Acts:16:19 @ But when her owners saw that their hopes of gain were gone, they seized Paul and Silas, and dragged them before the magistrates, into the market-place.

mnt@Acts:16:24 @ On receiving so strict an order he cast them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

mnt@Acts:16:25 @ But at midnight, while Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them,

mnt@Acts:16:26 @ suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the very foundations of the prison-house were shaken; and instantly all the doors were opened, and every ones chains fell off.

mnt@Acts:16:27 @ The jailer, roused from sleep, and seeing the doors wide open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, because he thought that the prisoners had escaped.

mnt@Acts:16:29 @ So he called for lights, and sprang in, and, trembling for fear, fell down before Paul and Silas,

mnt@Acts:16:32 @ Then they spoke the message of the Lord to him, as well as to all who were in his house.

mnt@Acts:16:33 @ And he took them, the same hour of the night, and washed their wounds, and he was baptized at once, he and all his.

mnt@Acts:16:36 @ The jailer reported the words to Paul, saying. "The praetors have sent to release you; so come out, and go in peace."

mnt@Acts:16:40 @ So Paul and Silas came out of the prison, and went to Lydias house; and after they had seen the brethren and encouraged them, they left Philippi.

mnt@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had gone through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica. Here there was a Jewish synagogue,

mnt@Acts:17:2 @ and Paul, according to his usual custom, went in to them and, for three Sabbath Days, he reasoned with them out of the Scriptures,

mnt@Acts:17:3 @ explaining and quoting passages to prove that the Messiah had to suffer and to rise again from the dead and that "This Jesus whom I am proclaiming unto you is the Messiah."

mnt@Acts:17:4 @ Some were persuaded and attached themselves to Paul and Silas, including a number of devout Greeks, and a large number of the leading women.

mnt@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews, moved with jealousy, called to their aid certain ill- favored and idle fellows, formed a mob, and began to set the town in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.

mnt@Acts:17:6 @ And when they had failed to find Paul and Silas, they began to drag Jason and some of the brethren before the politarchs, shouting. "These fellows who have upset the habitable earth are come hither also.

mnt@Acts:17:9 @ but when they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

mnt@Acts:17:10 @ Now the brothers sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they got there they betook themselves to the Jewish synagogue.

mnt@Acts:17:13 @ As soon as the Jews in Thessalonica learned that the word of God was preached by Paul in Berea also, they came there, and stirred up and troubled the crowds.

mnt@Acts:17:14 @ Then the brothers at once sent Paul down to the sea, but Silas and Timothy remained behind.

mnt@Acts:17:15 @ Those who were caring for Paul brought him as far as Athens, and there left him, with instructions to Silas and Timothy to come to him with all speed.

mnt@Acts:17:16 @ While Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred within him, when he noticed that the city was full of idols.

mnt@Acts:17:18 @ A few of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also encountered him again and again. Some were saying, "What has this beggarly fellow to say?" Others said, "He seems to be a setter forth of strange gods," because he preached Jesus and the resurrection.

mnt@Acts:17:23 @ "For as I was passing along and observing your objects of worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. What you are worshiping in ignorance, this I am proclaiming to you.

mnt@Acts:18:3 @ Paul came to them, and because he was of the same trade with them, he lodged with them, and worked with them - for by trade they were tentmakers.

mnt@Acts:18:5 @ And when Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul was engrossed in his message, earnestly testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Messiah.

mnt@Acts:18:6 @ But as they opposed him and abused him, he shook out his garments in protest, and said. "Your blood be upon your own hands. I am clean. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."

mnt@Acts:18:12 @ But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose against Paul, and brought him before the tribunal.

mnt@Acts:18:18 @ And Paul after remaining in Corinth some time longer, took leave of the brothers, and sailed away to Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila. As Paul was under a vow, he had his head shaved at Cenchrea.

mnt@Acts:18:19 @ When they came to Ephesus he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.

mnt@Acts:18:21 @ but said, as he took leave of them, "I will return again to you, if God will."

mnt@Acts:19:31 @ and some of the Asiarchs, too, who were his friends, sent word to him repeatedly, entreating him not to venture into the theater.

mnt@Acts:19:32 @ Now some were shouting one thing, some another, for the assembly was in an uproar, and the majority had no idea why they were come together.

mnt@Acts:20:9 @ and a young man named Eutychus was sitting in a window, overborne by deep sleep, while Paul continued to preach at length. Overcome at last by sleep, he fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead.

mnt@Acts:21:25 @ "As for the Gentile believers, we wrote giving judgment that they should abstain from anything sacrificed to an idol, from blood, from what is strangled, and from fornication."

mnt@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul took the men, and after purifying himself with them next day, went into the temple to declare the fulfilment of the days of purification, until the offering was offered for every one of them.

mnt@Acts:21:27 @ But when the seven days were almost over, the Asiatic Jews caught sight of him in the temple, and began to stir up all the crowd, and laid hands on him, shouting.

mnt@Acts:21:28 @ "Men of Israel, help! This is the man who goes everywhere preaching to everybody against the people, and the Law, and this place. And he has actually brought Gentiles even into the temple, and has desecrated the holy place."

mnt@Acts:21:31 @ While they were attempting to kill him, news came to the tribune commander of the garrison that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

mnt@Acts:21:33 @ Then the tribune came up and seized him, and ordered that he be bound with two chains. "Who is he?" he began asking, "and what has he done?"

mnt@Acts:21:40 @ So when he had given leave, Paul stood on the stairs, beckoning with his hands to the people. There came a great hush, and he spoke to them as follows, in Hebrew.

mnt@Acts:22:3 @ "I am a Jew," he said, "born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the strict manner of the Law of our forefathers, ardent for God, even as you all are this day.

mnt@Acts:22:27 @ So the tribune came to Paul and asked him, "Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?" "Yes," he said.

mnt@Acts:22:28 @ "I paid a large sum to get this citizenship," said the tribune. "But I was citizen-born," said Paul.

mnt@Acts:22:29 @ Then those who were about to scourge him, immediately left him. And the tribune too, was afraid, when he learned that Paul was a Roman citizen, for he had had him bound.

mnt@Acts:22:30 @ The next day, as he wished to learn the real reason why the Jews accused Paul, he unbound him, and commanded the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin to come together, and brought Paul down, and placed him before them.

mnt@Acts:23:1 @ With a stedfast gaze at the Sanhedrin, Paul said, "Brothers, I have lived with a good conscience before God to this day."

mnt@Acts:23:2 @ Then the High Priest Ananias ordered those who stood near Paul to strike him on the mouth.

mnt@Acts:23:5 @ "Brothers, I did not know that he was the high priest," exclaimed Paul, "for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of a ruler of my people."

mnt@Acts:23:7 @ When he said this, there arose a quarrel between the Pharisees and Sadducees; the meeting was divided.

mnt@Acts:23:9 @ Then a great clamor arose; some of the scribes who belonged to the Pharisaic party stood up, and contended. "We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit has spoken to him, or an angel?"

mnt@Acts:23:11 @ And the following night the Lord stood by him and said. "Be of good courage; for as you have borne faithful witness concerning me at Jerusalem, so you must testify at Rome also."

mnt@Acts:23:15 @ "Now do you and the Sanhedrin ask the tribune to bring him down to you, as though you would judge his case more exactly; and we are ready to kill him, before he comes near the place."

mnt@Acts:23:17 @ And Paul called one of the centurions, and said, "Take this young man to the tribune, for he has something to tell him."

mnt@Acts:23:18 @ So he took him, and brought his to the tribune, and said, "Paul, the prisoner, called me to him, and begged me to bring this young man to you, because he has something to tell you."

mnt@Acts:23:19 @ And the tribune took him by the hand, and going aside, asked him privately, "What is it that you have to tell me?"

mnt@Acts:23:20 @ "The Jews," he answered, "have agreed to ask you to bring down Paul tomorrow to the Sanhedrin, as though they wish to examine his case in detail.

mnt@Acts:23:23 @ Then he called two centurions to him and said. "Get ready by nine oclock tonight two hundred infantry to march as far as Caesarea, and also seventy troopers and two hundred spearmen."

mnt@Acts:23:24 @ He further ordered them to provide horses on which to mount Paul, so as to bring him safely to Felix, the governor.

mnt@Acts:23:35 @ "I will hear your case when your accusers also are come." And he ordered him to be kept in custody in Herods palace.

mnt@Acts:24:1 @ Five days later, Ananias the high priest came down to Caesarea with some of the elders, and with an orator, named Tertullus. They laid information before the governor against Paul.

mnt@Acts:24:2 @ So Paul was sent for, and then Tertullus began to accuse him, saying. "As it is owing to your excellency that we enjoy profound peace, and that the state of this nation,

mnt@Acts:24:25 @ And as he reasoned about morality, self-control, and the future judgment, Felix was terrified, and said, "For the present go on your way, and when I find a convenient season, I will send for you."

mnt@Acts:24:26 @ He was hoping that Paul would give him money, and for this reason he used to send for him often to converse with him.

mnt@Acts:24:27 @ But after two full years Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, and because he wished to curry favor with the Jews, Felix left Paul still in prison.

mnt@Acts:25:3 @ They urged him, asking it as a favor, to send for him to Jerusalem. They meant to lay in wait for him and kill him on the way.

mnt@Acts:25:4 @ But Festus answered that Paul was in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was going there soon.

mnt@Acts:25:10 @ "I am standing before Caesars tribunal," answered Paul, "where I ought to be tried. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you very well know.

mnt@Acts:25:14 @ And while they tarried many days, Festus laid Pauls case before the king. "There is a man here," he said, "whom Felix left a prisoner.

mnt@Acts:25:15 @ "The chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me about him, when I was at Jerusalem, demanding a sentence against him.

mnt@Acts:25:16 @ I told them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give any man up for punishment, before the accused had his accusers face to face, and had opportunity of defending himself against the charges that had been brought against him.

mnt@Acts:25:20 @ I was perplexed how to investigate such questions, and asked Paul whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.

mnt@Acts:25:21 @ But when Paul appealed to have his case reviewed for the decision of the Emperor, I ordered him to be detained until I could send him up to Caesar."

mnt@Acts:25:23 @ So the next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp, and took their places in the hall of audience, accompanied by the tribunes and men of high rank in the city. At the command of Festus Paul was brought in.

mnt@Acts:25:25 @ "I could not find that he had done anything for which he ought to die; but as he himself has appealed to the Emperor, I have determined to send him.

mnt@Acts:27:2 @ We embarked in a ship of Adramyttium which was about to sail to the ports of the province of Asia, and put to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, accompanied us.

mnt@Acts:27:7 @ For many days we sailed slowly, and then arrived with difficulty over against Cnidus; from this point, as the wind did not further favor us, we ran under the lee of Crete, off Cape Salmone;

mnt@Acts:27:8 @ and coasting along with difficulty we reached a place called Fair Havens, not far from the town of Lasea.

mnt@Acts:27:9 @ By this time the season was far advanced, and sailing had become dangerous (for the Autumn Fast was past); so Paul began to warn them.

mnt@Acts:27:11 @ But the centurion paid greater heed to the master and to the owner than to anything that was spoken by Paul;

mnt@Acts:27:12 @ and as the harbor was ill adapted for winter quarters, the majority advised putting out to sea from thence, to see whether they could get to Phoenix and winter there, a harbor on the coast of Crete facing northeast and southeast.

mnt@Acts:27:14 @ But it was not long before a furious wind, called Euroclydon, rushed down from the island;

mnt@Acts:27:15 @ when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it, and let her drive.

mnt@Acts:27:18 @ And as we were being terribly battered by the storm, the next day they began to throw the freight overboard,

mnt@Acts:27:20 @ Then when for many days neither sun nor stars were seen, and a great tempest still beat upon us, all hope that we should be saved was now taken away from us.

mnt@Acts:27:23 @ "for last night an angel of the God whose I am and whom I serve, stood by me and said.

mnt@Acts:28:1 @ And when we were escaped, we ascertained that the island was called Malta.

mnt@Acts:28:3 @ Now when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and thrown them on the fire, a viper crawled out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

mnt@Acts:28:4 @ When the natives saw the reptile hanging on his hand, they began saying to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet justice does not allow him to live."

mnt@Acts:28:6 @ But they kept expecting him to swell up or fall down dead suddenly. But after waiting a long time, and seeing no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said over and over that he was a god.

mnt@Acts:28:8 @ It happened however that the father of Publius was lying ill of fever and dysentery. So Paul went to see him and prayed and laid his hands on him and healed him.

mnt@Acts:28:10 @ These loaded us with many honors and, when at last we set sail, they put on board such things as we needed.

mnt@Acts:28:11 @ Three months passed before we set sail an Alexandrian ship which had wintered in the island. Its name was "The Twin Brothers."

mnt@Acts:28:15 @ From there the brothers, when they heard about us, came out to meet us as far as the Appian Forum and the Three Taverns. When Paul saw them he thanked God and took courage.

mnt@Acts:28:16 @ When we finally entered Rome, Paul was allowed to live by himself with the soldier to guard him.

mnt@Acts:28:17 @ Now three days later he called the leading Jews together, and when they were come together he said to them. "Brothers, I was delivered a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of your fathers.

mnt@Romans:1:20 @ For ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his everlasting power and divinity, has been clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made. So they have no excuse.

mnt@Romans:1:21 @ For although they knew God, yet they did not glorify him as God, nor give him thanks; but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened.

mnt@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat is an open grave; With their tongues they have used deceit. The venom of asps is under their lips.

mnt@Romans:3:21 @ But now, quite apart from any law, a righteousness coming from God has been fully brought to light, continually witnessed to by the Law and the Prophets.

mnt@Romans:3:25 @ For God openly set him forth for himself as an offering of atonement through faith, by means of his blood, in order to show forth his righteousness - since in his forbearance he had passed over the sins previously committed - to show forth his righteousness,

mnt@Romans:3:26 @ I say, at this present time; that he himself might be just, and yet the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.

mnt@Romans:3:27 @ Then what becomes of boasting? It is shut out. What sort of law forbids it? A law of works? No, but a law of faith.

mnt@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to be proud of, but not before God.

mnt@Romans:4:3 @ For what does Scripture say? And Abraham believed God, and it was set down to his account as righteousness.

mnt@Romans:4:4 @ Now if a man earn his pay by his work, it is not counted to him as a favor, but it is paid him as a debt;

mnt@Romans:4:5 @ but a man who does not "work," but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, has his faith imputed to him for righteousness.

mnt@Romans:4:6 @ Just as David also speaks of the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from actions.

mnt@Romans:4:9 @ Is this blessing, then, for the circumcised alone? or for the uncircumcised also? Abrahams faith, I say, was imputed to him for righteousness.

mnt@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it imputed to him? When he was circumcised? or uncircumcised? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision;

mnt@Romans:4:11 @ and he received circumcision as a sign, a seal of the faith- righteousness which he had while he was in uncircumcision; in order that he might be the father of all who believe, even though they are uncircumcised; so that righteousness might be imputed to them.

mnt@Romans:4:12 @ He is the father of circumcision to those who are not merely circumcised, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham which he held while he was as yet uncircumcised.

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

mnt@Romans:4:19 @ Though he was about a hundred years old, his faith did not fail him when he regarded his own body, now as good as dead. and remembered Sarahs barrenness.

mnt@Romans:4:21 @ and was fully persuaded that what God had promised, he was able also to perform.

mnt@Romans:4:22 @ And so his faith was reckoned to him for righteousness.

mnt@Romans:4:23 @ Now these words were not written simply for his sake, but for us as well.

mnt@Romans:4:25 @ who was betrayed to death for our transgressions, and raised again to life for our justification.

mnt@Romans:5:1 @ Since we stand justified as the result of faith, let us continue to enjoy the peace we have with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@Romans:5:5 @ a hope which never disappoints us. For through the Holy Spirit who has given to us, the "brimming river of the love of God" has overflowed in our hearts.

mnt@Romans:5:13 @ For prior to the Law, sin actually existed in the world, but sin was not set down to mans account when there was no law.

mnt@Romans:5:14 @ Nevertheless, from Adam to Moses death reigned as king, even over those who had not sinned after the likeness of Adams transgression. Now Adam is a type of Him who was to come.

mnt@Romans:5:16 @ And it is not with the free gift as it was through the one that sinned; for the judgment came from one transgression unto condemnation; but the free gift came from many transgressions unto acquittal.

mnt@Romans:5:17 @ For if through the transgression of the one, death reigned as king through the one, much more shall those who receive the overflowing grace and gift of righteousness reign as kings in life through One, through Jesus Christ.

mnt@Romans:5:18 @ It follows then, as through the transgression of one man came condemnation unto all men, even so through the act of righteousness of One came acquittal and life to all men.

mnt@Romans:5:19 @ For just as through the disobedience of one man the rest were made sinners; even so by the obedience of One shall all the rest be made righteous.

mnt@Romans:5:20 @ Now law was brought in so that transgression might abound; but where sin abounded, grace super-abounded;

mnt@Romans:5:21 @ in order that as sin has ruled as king in death, so also grace might rule as king in righteousness which issues in eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord, - ours!

mnt@Romans:6:4 @ We have been buried together with him, then, through baptism into his death, in order that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we should live in a newness of life.

mnt@Romans:6:6 @ For this we know, that our old self was crucified with Christ, in order that the slave of sin might be destroyed; so that we should no longer be in slavery to sin -

mnt@Romans:6:9 @ knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more; death has no more dominion over him.

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@Romans:6:23 @ FOR THE POOR WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH, BUT THE FREE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS, OUR MASTER.

mnt@Romans:7:2 @ For a married woman who has a husband is bound by law to her husband during his lifetime; but if her husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband.

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

mnt@Romans:7:5 @ For while we were unspiritual, the sinful passions, aroused by the Law, were ever active in every part of our bodies, leading us to bear fruit unto death.

mnt@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been released from the Law, because we are dead to that in which we were held; so that we are now in thraldom in new and spiritual conditions, and not under the old written code.

mnt@Romans:7:13 @ Did then that which was good become for me death? Never! but sin did; that it might be manifest as sin, by that the unutterable malignity of sin might become plain through the commandment.

mnt@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the Law is spiritual; but as for me, I am a creature of flesh, bought and sold under the dominion of sin.

mnt@Romans:7:17 @ And now it is longer I myself who do the deed, but it is sin which has its home in me.

mnt@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that in me, that is in my flesh, no good thing has its home; for while to will is present with me, to carry out that which is right is not.

mnt@Romans:7:20 @ But if I do the very thing I do not intend to do, it is no more I who practise it, but sin which has its home in me.

mnt@Romans:8:2 @ for the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and of death.

mnt@Romans:8:3 @ For God has done what the Law could not do, weakened as it was by flesh. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and on account of sin, he condemned sin in the flesh;

mnt@Romans:8:8 @ And they who are earthly minded cannot please God.

mnt@Romans:8:18 @ For I count as nothing what we now suffer, in comparison with the glory which will soon be unveiled to us.

mnt@Romans:8:20 @ For nature was subjected to imperfection, not by its own will, but by the will of Him who thus made it subject -

mnt@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that all nature has been groaning and travailing together until this hour.

mnt@Romans:8:23 @ And not only that, we ourselves, although we are grasping the first- fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves are inwardly groaning, while we are waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.

mnt@Romans:8:26 @ In the same way the Spirit also takes hold with us in our weakness; for we know knot how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

mnt@Romans:8:36 @ Even as it is written. For thy sake we are killed all the day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

mnt@Romans:9:3 @ For I was on the point of praying to be accursed from Christ on behalf of my brothers, my kinsmen according to the flesh.

mnt@Romans:9:5 @ theirs are the patriarchs, and of them, as concerning the flesh, is Christ, who is over all, God, blessed forever, Amen.

mnt@Romans:9:6 @ It is not, however, as though Gods word had failed! For they are not all Israel who have sprung from Israel;

mnt@Romans:9:7 @ they are not all children of Abraham because they are Abrahams descendants. The promise was, In Isaac shall thy posterity be called.

mnt@Romans:9:8 @ That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as his posterity.

mnt@Romans:9:9 @ For thus is the word of promise, According to this season I will come, and Sarah shall bear a son.

mnt@Romans:9:10 @ And not only so, but when Rebecca was pregnant by our forefather Isaac, though one man was the father of both children,

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

mnt@Romans:9:13 @ As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

mnt@Romans:9:15 @ His words to Moses are. I will have mercy on whom I choose to have mercy; I will have compassion on whom I choose to have compassion.

mnt@Romans:9:16 @ So then it is not a question of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy.

mnt@Romans:9:18 @ So then he has mercy on whom he will, and whom he will, he hardens.

mnt@Romans:9:21 @ Or has not the potter power over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for noble, and another for ignoble uses?

mnt@Romans:9:24 @ Now such are we whom he has called, not only from among the Jews, but also from among the Gentiles.

mnt@Romans:9:25 @ As he also said in Hosea. Those who were not my people I will call "my people," And her "beloved" who was not beloved;

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

mnt@Romans:9:29 @ Even as in an earlier passage, Isaiah says, Except the Lord of Sabbath had us some few descendants, we should have become like Sodom, and should have fared like Gomorrah.

mnt@Romans:9:33 @ even as it is written. Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; but he that believes on Him shall not be put to shame.

mnt@Romans:10:4 @ For to every believer Christ is an end of law as a means of righteousness.

mnt@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way. Say not in thine heart, "Who shall ascend to heaven?" - that is, to bring Christ down;

mnt@Romans:10:15 @ And how can men preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring a glad gospel.

mnt@Romans:10:18 @ But I ask, Did they fail to hear? Yes, truly, Their sound has gone out unto all the earth, And their words unto the ends of the world.

mnt@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaiah speaks very boldly, I was found of those who were not seeking me, I was made manifest to those who were not asking for me.

mnt@Romans:11:1 @ Then I ask, Did God cast off his people? No indeed. For I also am an Israelite, a son of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.

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

mnt@Romans:11:4 @ But what was the answer of God to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

mnt@Romans:11:7 @ What then? that which Israel has been seeking for, that he has not obtained; but the chosen have obtained it, and the rest have been hardened.

mnt@Romans:11:8 @ According as it is written, God has given them a spirit of slumber, Eyes that they should not see, Ears that they should not hear, unto this day.

mnt@Romans:11:9 @ As David says. Let their table be made a snare and a trap, And a stumbling-block and a recompense unto them;

mnt@Romans:11:11 @ I ask then, "Have they stumbled so as to fall?" No indeed; but by their lapse salvation has come unto Gentiles, "to provoke Israel to jealousy."

mnt@Romans:11:15 @ For if their casting out is the reconciliation of the world to God, what will their restoration be but life out of death?

mnt@Romans:11:16 @ Now if the first-fruits of the dough Abraham and the Patriarchs are holy, so also is the whole mass their descendants. And if the root of a tree Abraham is holy, so also are the branches his descendants.

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

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

mnt@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written. The deliver will come from Zion, He will banish all ungodliness from Jacob;

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

mnt@Romans:11:32 @ For God has locked up all in the prison of disobedience, that upon all he may have mercy.

mnt@Romans:11:34 @ Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counsellor?

mnt@Romans:11:35 @ Who has first given to Him, So as to receive payment in return?

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

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

mnt@Romans:12:4 @ For even as we have many members in one body, and not all members have the same function;

mnt@Romans:12:6 @ But we have gifts differing according to the grace which was given to us. He that has the gift of prophecy, let him prophesy according to the proportion of his faith.

mnt@Romans:12:10 @ As for brotherly love, be tenderly affectionate one to another, in honor preferring one another.

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

mnt@Romans:12:12 @ Rejoice in hope; be patient under affliction; continue stedfast in prayer.

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

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

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

mnt@Romans:13:8 @ Never owe any one anything save the debt of brotherly love; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law.

mnt@Romans:13:9 @ For the Law which says, Thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt do no murder, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet, and whatever other commandment there be - is all summed up in this one saying, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

mnt@Romans:13:13 @ Let us live honestly, as in the day, Not in reveling and drunkenness, Not in lust and licentiousness, Not is strife and jealousy;

mnt@Romans:14:2 @ One man has faith to eat anything; but he whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.

mnt@Romans:14:3 @ He who eats meat must not despise the man who abstains; and let not the man who abstains judge him who eats; for God has received him.

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

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

mnt@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written, "As I live," says the Lord, "to me every knee shall bow, And to God shall every tongue confess."

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

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

mnt@Romans:14:18 @ Those who are slaving for Christ devotedly in these ways, are well pleasing to God and highly commended by man.

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

mnt@Romans:14:23 @ But he who has misgivings, and yet eats meat, is condemned already, because his action is not based on faith; and whatever is not based on faith is sin.

mnt@Romans:15:1 @ Now we who are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to seek our own pleasure.

mnt@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ pleased not himself; but as it is written, The reproaches of those who were reproaching thee fell upon me.

mnt@Romans:15:4 @ For everything that was written of old has been written for our instruction, that through patience, and through the comfort of the Scriptures, we might have hope.

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

mnt@Romans:15:8 @ For I say that Christ has been made a minister of the Circumcision the people of Israel, in vindication of Gods truth, so that he may confirm the promises given to our forefathers;

mnt@Romans:15:9 @ and so that the Gentiles also should praise God for his mercy, as it is written, Therefore I will offer praise to thee among the Gentiles, And sing to thy name.

mnt@Romans:15:12 @ Or again, as Isaiah says. There shall be the root of Jesse, And he that arises to rule over the Gentiles; On him shall the Gentiles hope.

mnt@Romans:15:16 @ I act as priest of the gospel of God; so that the Gentiles, when offered before him, may be an acceptable sacrifice, because consecrated by the Holy Spirit.

mnt@Romans:15:17 @ I have then my boast in Christ Jesus concerning the things of God.

mnt@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any thing except that which Christ has done through me to bring the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,

mnt@Romans:15:19 @ through the might of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Spirit. So that beginning at Jerusalem and its environs, I have proclaimed without reserve the gospel of Christ, even as far as Illyricum.

mnt@Romans:15:20 @ My ambition has been, however, to preach the gospel where Christs name was not already known, so that I might not build upon another mans foundation.

mnt@Romans:15:21 @ But, as Scripture says, He shall be seen by those to whom no news about him ever came, And those who have never heard of him shall understand.

mnt@Romans:15:26 @ For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make an offering for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem.

mnt@Romans:15:27 @ Yes, it has been made their good pleasure, and their debt, too. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual riches, they owe it to them also to minister to them the Jews in worldly goods.

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

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

mnt@Romans:16:26 @ but now has been brought to light, and by command of the eternal God made known to the Gentiles by the scriptures of the Prophets, so that the Gentiles might hold obedience of the faith.

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

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:1:16 @ Yes, I did baptize the house of Stephanas also, but I do not think I baptized any one else.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Sage, rabbi, skeptic of this present age - where are they all? Has not God made foolish the philosophy of the world?

mnt@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For when, in the wisdom of God, the world by its philosophy knew not God, the world by its philosophy knew not God, it pleased God, by the foolishness of preaching, to save those who believe.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:22 @ Jews continue to ask for miracles and Greeks are ever wanting philosophy,

mnt@1Corinthians:1:27 @ No, God has chosen the worlds folly to confound its philosophy; and the worlds weakness to confound its strength.

mnt@1Corinthians:1:28 @ The worlds base things has God chosen, and the things that are not, to bring to naught the things that are;

mnt@1Corinthians:1:31 @ so that as Scripture says, He that glories, let him glory in the Lord.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:2:4 @ My message and my preaching were not in the persuasive language of philosophy, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power;

mnt@1Corinthians:2:9 @ Nay, as it is written. Eye has not seen, Nor ear heard, Neither have entered into mans heart The things which God has prepared For those who love him.

mnt@1Corinthians:2:10 @ Yet God has unveiled them to us by his Spirit. For the Spirit fathoms everything, even the abysmal depths of God.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God vouchsafed me, like a skillful master- builder, I have laid a foundation; but another will be building upon it. Let each take heed how he builds on it.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If any mans work - the building he has made - stands the test, he will be rewarded.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If any mans work is burned up, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, as it were through the flames.

mnt@1Corinthians:3:20 @ and again, The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise, how futile they are.

mnt@1Corinthians:4:9 @ But it seems to me that God has exhibited us apostles, last of all, like men doomed to death; for we are made a spectacle to the whole world, both to men and to angels.

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For I, although absent in body, yet present in spirit, have already passed sentence, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, on him who has done this thing.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But to the unmarried, and the widows, I say that it is well for them to remain as I am.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:9 @ If, however, they are not exercising self-control, by all means let them marry; for marriage is better than the fever of passion.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:12 @ To the rest it is I who am speaking, not the Lord. If any brother has a wife who is not a believer, if he is willing to live with her, let him not send her away.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving partner be determined to leave, separation let it be. In such cases the believing husband or wife is not under bondage. But it is into peace that God has called us.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:17 @ Only whatever be the lot in life to which God has assigned each one - and whatever the condition in which he was living when God called him- -in that let him continue. Such is the rule I give in all the churches.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:18 @ So, was any man called, being circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Was any man called when he was uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Whatever be the condition of life in which he was called, in that let him continue.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For the slave who has been called in the Lord is the Lords freedman; and in the same way, the free man who is called is Christs slave.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Where each man stood when he was called, there, brothers, let him stay, close to God.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I think then, that in view of the time of suffering now imminent, it is best for a man to remain as he is.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:7:29 @ Indeed, brothers, the time that remains to us has been shortened; so let those who have wives live as if they had none,

mnt@1Corinthians:7:30 @ let those who weep be as though they did not weep, those who rejoice as though they did not rejoice, those who buy as though they did not possess,

mnt@1Corinthians:7:31 @ and those who use the world as though using it sparingly. For the present phase of the world is passing away.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:7:33 @ but a married man is anxious about worldly affairs, how he may please his wife, and he is divided in his mind.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:34 @ Again, the woman who is widow, or the maid, is anxious about the Lords business, how she may be pure in body and in mind; but the married woman is anxious about worldly affairs, how she may please her husband.

mnt@1Corinthians:7:37 @ On the other hand, he who is firm in his purpose and is under no compulsion, but is free to carry out his own wishes, and who has determined to keep his daughter unmarried, does well.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now in regard to food which has been offered to idols, we are sure of course that "we all have knowledge." But knowledge puffs up, while love builds up.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:2 @ If a man thinks that he already has knowledge, he does not yet truly know as he ought to know;

mnt@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Now as to eating food that has been offered to idols, we know well that an idol has no real existence in the universe, and that there is no God but One.

mnt@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For though there be so-called "gods," celestial of terrestrial, as indeed there are gods many and lords many,

mnt@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But that "knowledge" is not possessed by all; but some, accustomed until now to the idol, eat food as that which has actually been offered to an idol, and so their conscience, being still weak, is defiled.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Have I no right to take a believing wife with me on my journey, as the rest of the apostles and the Lords brothers and Peter do?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Are we the only ones, Barnabas and I, who have no right to give up manual labor?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:7 @ What soldier ever serves at his own expense? What farmer ever plants a vineyard and his flock and does not taste the milk?

mnt@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Is it the oxen that God is thinking about, or is it really said for our sakes? It was written for us; because the plowman ought to plow in hope, and the thresher in hope of getting a share of the crop.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:16 @ Proclaiming the gospel gives me no ground of boasting; for necessity is laid upon me; woe is me if I preach not the gospel.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this of my own accord, I have my pay; but if unwilling, I have at least discharged my stewardship.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What then is my wage? This, that I can make the gospel free where I carry it; and that I can refrain from using my rights as a preacher of the gospel.

mnt@1Corinthians:9:21 @ to those outside the Law, as one outside the Law, to win those outside the Law (though I am not outside the law of God, but inside the law of Christ).

mnt@1Corinthians:9:26 @ For my part, then, I run with no wavering to the goal. I box not as one beating the air,

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

mnt@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank from the same spiritual stream, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:5 @ But in most of them God was not well pleased, for they were laid low in the desert.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:6 @ Now this happened as a warning for us, that we might not long for evil things as they longed.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor must we act licentiously, as some of them did, and fell in a single day, twenty-three thousand of them.

mnt@1Corinthians:10:9 @ Neither must we presume upon the patience of our Lord, as some of them presumed, and were destroyed by the serpents;

mnt@1Corinthians:10:10 @ nor murmur, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the Destroying Angel.

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

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:12:8 @ For to one man by the Spirit has been given a word of wisdom, to another a word of insight by the same Spirit;

mnt@1Corinthians:15:4 @ that he was buried, and that he was raised the third day, according to the Scriptures,

mnt@1Corinthians:15:7 @ Then he was seen by James, then by all the apostles,

mnt@1Corinthians:15:8 @ and last of all, as by one born out of due time, he was seen by me also.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, I who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if the dead rise not, neither has Christ arisen;

mnt@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now, now, Christ is risen from the dead, the first-fruit of those who have fallen asleep.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:26 @ The last enemy that will be destroyed is Death.

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

mnt@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will ask. "How are the dead raised? and with what body are they coming?"

mnt@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it what body he pleases, and to each kind of seed its own body.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:45 @ Thus it is written. The first man, Adam, became a living being, the last Adam, a life-giving Spirit.

mnt@1Corinthians:15:48 @ Like him who was of earth, are the earthy; and like Him who is of heaven, are the heavenly;

mnt@1Corinthians:15:49 @ As we have borne the likeness of him who was of earth, so also let us bear the likeness of Him who is of heaven.

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

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

mnt@1Corinthians:16:9 @ for a door has opened to me, great and effectual, and the opponents are many.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:1:22 @ He has also set his seal upon me, and given me the pledge of his Spirit in my heart.

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Now when I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, although a door was opened to me in the Lord,

mnt@2Corinthians:2:16 @ to these latter an odor of death to death, to the former, of life to life. For such service as this, who is sufficient?

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:3:6 @ It is he who has also made me sufficient as a minister of a new covenant; not of a letter but of a spirit; for the letter kills, but the spirit makes alive.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:10 @ Indeed that which once was glorious has lost its glory, because of the glory which surpasses it.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if that which was fading came in glory, far more will that which ever abides be glorious.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:13 @ I do not do as Moses did, who used to cover his face with a veil to keep the children of Israel from beholding the passing of a fading glory.

mnt@2Corinthians:3:18 @ And we all, with unveiled faces, reflecting like a mirror the glory of the Lord, are ourselves continually being transformed into the same likeness, from glory to glory, as by the Lord, the Spirit.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:1 @ So then, as I have this ministry because of Gods mercy to me, I do not lose heart.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:2 @ I have renounced the hidden things of shame, not spending my life in craftiness, nor adulterating the word of God; but setting forth the truth openly, I strive to commend myself to every mans conscience as in the sight of God.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For God who said, "Out of darkness light shall shine," is he who has shone in my heart, that the sunrise of the knowledge of God may shine forth in the face of Christ.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But I hold this treasure in an earthen vessel, in order that the surpassing greatness of the power may be from God, and not from myself.

mnt@2Corinthians:4:16 @ For this reason, as I have said, I do not lose courage, but even though my outward man is wasting away, my inward man is being renewed, day by day.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:5 @ And He who has wrought me out for this very end is God, who has given me his Spirit as pledge.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:8 @ So I have good courage, and am well pleased rather, to be in banishment from the body and to be at home with the Lord.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:9 @ And for this reason I also make it home with the Lord.

mnt@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all be made manifest, in our true characters, before the Judgment-seat of Christ; so that each one may receive according to that which he has done in his body, whether good or evil.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ overmasters me; because I thus judge that if One has died for all, then all have died;

mnt@2Corinthians:5:16 @ Therefore henceforth I know no one simply as a man - even if I have known Christ as a man, yet now I do so no longer.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:9 @ as unknown and yet well known; as at deaths door, yet, strange to tell, I live on; as chastened, but not killed;

mnt@2Corinthians:6:10 @ as grieved, but always glad; as poor, but making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything.

mnt@2Corinthians:6:15 @ What concord has Christ with Belial? What portion has a believer with an unbeliever?

mnt@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what compact has Gods temple with idols? For we are a temple of the living God, as he has said. I will dwell among them, and walk about among them; I will be their God, and they will be my people.

mnt@2Corinthians:7:1 @ As these promises are ours, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and of spirit, and perfect our holiness in the fear of God.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And this not as I had expected, but in accordance with the will of God, they first gave themselves to God and to me.

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there be first willing mind, the gift is accepted according to what a man has, and not according to what he has not.

mnt@2Corinthians:8:15 @ even as it is written, He who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little did not lack.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written. He scattered broadcast, he gave to the poor; His almsgiving continues forever.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:10:3 @ Though I do walk on the low level of the flesh, I do not make war as the flesh does;

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

mnt@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Look these facts in the face. If any man is fully persuaded as regards himself that he belongs to Christ, let him consider again with himself, that just as he is Christs, so also am I.

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such a man assure himself that my actions, when I am present, will be just like my words in my letters when I am absent.

mnt@2Corinthians:10:12 @ I have not indeed the audacity to class myself among, or compare myself with, certain of the self-commenders; yet they are not wise in measuring themselves by one another and in comparing themselves with one another.

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:10:17 @ Meanwhile. Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord.

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:11:10 @ As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine shall not be stopped within the boundaries of Greece!

mnt@2Corinthians:11:12 @ I am doing and will continue to do this in order to cut away the ground from under those who wish some cause for slander; and that the ground of their boasting may appear as does mine.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:14 @ No wonder! for Satan himself disguises himself as an angel of light.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:15 @ It is no great marvel, then, if his ministers also disguise themselves as ministers of righteousness. Their end will be according to their works.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:11:17 @ What I am about to say I am not speaking by the Lords command, but as it were in pure folly, in this boldness of boasting.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:18 @ Since so many are making worldly boasts, I shall boast, too!

mnt@2Corinthians:11:21 @ I say that I was weak, and yet for whatever reason any one is bold (I speak in mere folly) I too am bold.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as though I were beside myself), such, far, more, am I; in labors more abundant, in imprisonments also more abundant, in floggings beyond measure, in deaths often.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:24 @ Five times at the hands of the Jews, I have received one short of forty lashes.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:30 @ If boast I must, it shall be concerning my weakness.

mnt@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus, the governor under Aretas the King, kept guard over the city of the Damascus, to arrest me;

mnt@2Corinthians:11:33 @ but through an opening in the wall I was let down in a basket, and so escaped and out of his hands.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a Christian man who, fourteen years ago (whether in the body I know not, or out of the body, I know not. God knows), was caught up- -this man of whom I speak - even into the third heaven.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:4 @ who was caught up into Paradise, and heard unutterable words which no human being is permitted to utter.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:5 @ Of such a one I will boast; but on my own behalf I will not boast except in my weaknesses.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:6 @ If I should choose to continue boasting I should not be foolish, for I should be speaking the truth. But I refrain, lest by the stupendous grandeur of the revelation any one should estimate me beyond what he sees in me, or hears from me.

mnt@2Corinthians:12:7 @ It was for this reason, lest I should be over-elated, that there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to buffet me, lest I should be over-elated.

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

mnt@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Most gladly therefore will I boast rather of my weakness, that over me like a tent may be pitched the power of Christ. That is why I rejoice in weakness, in ill-treatment, in troubles, in persecutions and calamities for Christs sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he now lives through the power of God. I also am weak, sharing in his weakness, but I shall live with him by the power of God.

mnt@2Corinthians:13:10 @ For this reason I am writing thus while absent, so that when I come, I may not have to deal sharply, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for pulling down.

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

mnt@Galatians:1:12 @ for neither did I myself receive it from man, nor by man was I taught it, but by a revelation an apocalypse of Jesus Christ.

mnt@Galatians:1:16 @ and had called me by his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me, so that I might preach his gospel among the Gentiles, without consulting a human being,

mnt@Galatians:1:17 @ or even going up to Jerusalem to see those who had been apostles before me, I went off at once to Arabia, and on my return came back to Damascus.

mnt@Galatians:1:22 @ But to the churches of Christ in Judea I was personally unknown;

mnt@Galatians:1:23 @ only they used to hear it said, "He who was once persecuting us is now preaching the gospel of the very faith which he once tried to ruin."

mnt@Galatians:2:1 @ Fourteen years later I went up to Jerusalem again, with Barnabas, and took Titus also with me

mnt@Galatians:2:3 @ But although Titus, my companion, was a Greek, they did not compel even him to be circumcised.

mnt@Galatians:2:7 @ On the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel for the uncircumcised, just as Peter has with the gospel for the circumcised

mnt@Galatians:2:8 @ (for he who has equipped Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised, equipped me also for the apostleship to the Gentiles),

mnt@Galatians:2:9 @ and when they recognized the grace which had been given to me, James and Cephas and John, then thought to be pillars, gave to Barnabas and to me the right hand of fellowship. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the Jews.

mnt@Galatians:2:10 @ They stipulated only that we should remember the poor, which very thing indeed I was quite eager to do.

mnt@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Cephas came to Antioch I resisted him to his face, because he stood self-condemned.

mnt@Galatians:2:12 @ For until certain men came from James he used to eat with the Gentile Christians, but when they came, he began to draw back and to separate himself, because he was afraid of the circumcision party.

mnt@Galatians:2:13 @ And the rest of the Jewish Christians also dissimulated with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.

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

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

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

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

mnt@Galatians:3:6 @ Even as Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness?

mnt@Galatians:3:12 @ and the Law has nothing to do with faith, but declares, The man that has done these things shall live therein.

mnt@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse for us (for it is written, Cursed is every one who is hanged upon a tree),

mnt@Galatians:3:15 @ Let me illustrate, brothers, from every-day life. When once a human testament is made, and formally ratified, no one sets it aside or adds to it.

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

mnt@Galatians:3:17 @ I mean to say that the testament which God has already ratified could not be annulled by the Law which came four hundred and thirty years later, so as to make the Promise void.

mnt@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance comes from law, it no longer comes from a promise; but God did give it as a free gift to Abraham by a promise.

mnt@Galatians:3:19 @ To what purpose, then, was the Law? It was imposed later for the sake of transgressions, until the "Offspring" should come to whom the promise had been made. It was arranged through angels by the hand of a mediator.

mnt@Galatians:3:22 @ but the Scripture has shut up the whole world in prison together under sin, in order that the promise due to faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who have faith.

mnt@Galatians:3:24 @ So the Law has been our tutor-slave our pedagogue to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith;

mnt@Galatians:4:1 @ What I mean is this. As long as the heir is a child, he differs in no respect from a slave, though he be the owner of the whole inheritance;

mnt@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the fulness of time was come God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under law,

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

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

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

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

mnt@Galatians:4:23 @ but while the son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, the son by the free woman was born in fulfilment of a promise.

mnt@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, Rejoice, O thou barren one who dost never bear, Break forth in joy, thou that dost not travail; For the children of the desolate woman are many. Yea, more than hers who has a husband.

mnt@Galatians:4:29 @ but just as in old times the son born by the flesh used to persecute the son born by the power of the Spirit, so also it is now.

mnt@Galatians:5:6 @ because in Christ neither circumcision has any value, nor uncircumcision, but faith which works through love.

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

mnt@Galatians:5:11 @ But I, brothers, if I "still preach circumcision," why am I still persecuted? Then surely the stumbling-block of the Cross has ceased to be an obstacle!

mnt@Galatians:5:14 @ For the whole Law has been fulfilled in this one precept, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

mnt@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are manifest; such, for instance, as fornication, impurity, indecency,

mnt@Galatians:5:20 @ idol-worship, sorcery, quarrels, party-spirit, jealousy, passionate anger, intrigues, factions, sectarianism,

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

mnt@Galatians:5:24 @ And those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and appetites.

mnt@Galatians:6:9 @ And let us not be weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.

mnt@Galatians:6:10 @ So then, as we have opportunity, let is do good to all men, but especially to those who are of the household of faith.

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

mnt@Galatians:6:14 @ God forbid that I should glory in anything except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, upon which the world has been crucified to me and I have been crucified to the world.

mnt@Galatians:6:17 @ From this time forth let no one trouble me, for I bear branded in my body the marks of Jesus, my Master.

mnt@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:1:4 @ Even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world to be holy and without blemish in his sight.

mnt@Ephesians:1:5 @ For in his love he predestined us (such was the good pleasure of his will) to adoption for himself as sons through Jesus Christ,

mnt@Ephesians:1:7 @ It is in him we have deliverance, the forgiveness of our trespasses, through his blood;

mnt@Ephesians:1:9 @ when he made known to us, I say, that good pleasure which he purposed in himself

mnt@Ephesians:1:10 @ for the government of the fulness of the ages, that all things in heaven and earth are alike should be gathered up in Christ, as Head.

mnt@Ephesians:1:14 @ who for the praise of his glory is the pledge of our common heritage, unto the complete redemption of his purchased property.

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:1:19 @ and what the surpassing greatness of his might in us who believe, as seen in the energy of that resistless might

mnt@Ephesians:1:22 @ God has put all things under Christs feet, and placed him as Head over all in the church,

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:2:3 @ And among them we all once passed our lives, indulging the passions of our flesh, carrying out the dictates of our senses and temperament, and were by nature the children of wrath like all the rest.

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

mnt@Ephesians:2:9 @ It is not of works, so that any one can boast of it;

mnt@Ephesians:2:14 @ For he is our Peace, who has made the two of us Jew and Gentile one, and has broken down the party-wall of partition between us.

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not disclosed to the sons of men in former generations, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to his holy apostles and prophets,

mnt@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, who am less than the least of all saints, has this grace been given, that I should proclaim among the Gentiles the gospel of the unsearchable riches of Christ;

mnt@Ephesians:3:20 @ Now unto him who, according to his might that is at work within us, is able to do infinitely more than all we ask or even think,

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

mnt@Ephesians:4:7 @ And to each one of us was grace given according to the measure of the munificence of Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:4:8 @ Thus it is said, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts to men.

mnt@Ephesians:4:9 @ Now surely this "he ascended" implies that he also descended into the lower part of the earth.

mnt@Ephesians:4:10 @ He who descended is he who ascended above the highest heaven, that he might fill the universe.

mnt@Ephesians:4:11 @ It is he who made some men apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,

mnt@Ephesians:4:13 @ till we all come in the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to the maturity of manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.

mnt@Ephesians:4:16 @ From him the whole body (knit together and compacted by all its joints) makes continual growth of the body so as to build itself up in love, through the energy of his bounteous provision, according to the need of each several part.

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

mnt@Ephesians:4:19 @ These being past feeling have given themselves over to sensuality, in order to practise every form of impurity with greedy zest.

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:5:1 @ Learn then to imitate God as his beloved children,

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:5:5 @ For be well assured that no one guilty of fornication or impurity or covetousness which is idolatry, has any heritage in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

mnt@Ephesians:5:10 @ Examine carefully what is well pleasing to the Lord,

mnt@Ephesians:5:14 @ For this reason it is said, "Awake, thou sleeper! Arise from the dead; And Christ shall shine upon thee!"

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

mnt@Ephesians:5:17 @ For this reason do not be thoughtless, but learn to know what the Lords will is.

mnt@Ephesians:5:22 @ Wives likewise to their husbands as to the Lord,

mnt@Ephesians:5:23 @ because a husband is the head of his wife even as Christ is head of the church, his body, which he saves.

mnt@Ephesians:5:24 @ But as the church submits itself to Christ, so also wives to their husbands in everything.

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

mnt@Ephesians:5:27 @ so as to present her to himself, the church glorified, without spot or wrinkle or any such blemish; but on the contrary holy and faultless.

mnt@Ephesians:5:28 @ That is how husbands ought to love their wives, as they love their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

mnt@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no man ever yet hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it as Christ does the church;

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:6:6 @ not with eye service, as men-pleasers, but as the slaves of Christ, doing the will of God;

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

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

mnt@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand firm then, girt about with the belt of truth, and wearing the breastplate of righteousness,

mnt@Ephesians:6:19 @ and for me, that utterance may be given me to open my mouth boldly, and to make known the mystery of the gospel for which I am an ambassador,

mnt@Ephesians:6:20 @ and in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it boldly as I ought to speak.

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

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

mnt@Philippians:1:13 @ Throughout the whole Praetorian guard and among all the others it has become plain that these chains of mine are for the sake of Christ;

mnt@Philippians:1:18 @ What of it? In any case, whether in pretence or in honest truth, Christ is still preached, and in that I am rejoicing, yes, and will rejoice.

mnt@Philippians:1:20 @ So it is my keen expectation and hope that I shall never feel ashamed, but that with fearless courage, now as hither to, Christ may be magnified in my body, whether by my life or by my death.

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

mnt@Philippians:2:1 @ If then there is any comfort in Christ, if there is any persuasive power in love, if there is any companionship of the Spirit, if there is any tenderness or pity,

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

mnt@Philippians:2:7 @ but emptied himself of his glory by taking the form of a slave, when he was born in the likeness of men.

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

mnt@Philippians:2:16 @ holding out a message of life. Thus it will be my boast at the day of Christ that I have not run in vain, or toiled for nothing.

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

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

mnt@Philippians:2:23 @ So I hope to send him, as soon as ever I see how it will go with me;

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

mnt@Philippians:2:27 @ And indeed he was sick nigh unto death; but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also so that I should not have sorrow upon sorrow.

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

mnt@Philippians:3:3 @ For we are the true circumcision, who worship God in the spirit, and make our boast in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in outward rites,

mnt@Philippians:3:5 @ circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew sprung from the Hebrews; as to the Law, a Pharisee;

mnt@Philippians:3:6 @ as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to the righteousness which comes through law, blameless.

mnt@Philippians:3:7 @ But what was once gain to me, that I have counted loss for Christ.

mnt@Philippians:3:12 @ I do not say that I have already won, or am already perfect, but I am passing on to lay hold on the prize for which also Christ has laid hold of me.

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

mnt@Philippians:4:1 @ Stand fast then, brothers, dearly loved and longed for, my joy and my crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved!

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

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

mnt@Philippians:4:11 @ Not that I speak as if I were in want, for at least have learned how to be content, whatever happens.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@Colossians:1:13 @ For he has delivered us out of the dominion of the darkness, and transplanted us into the kingdom of his dear Son,

mnt@Colossians:1:16 @ for in him was the universe created, things in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen, thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers; by him and for him all have been created;

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

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

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

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

mnt@Colossians:1:26 @ that secret truth, which, although hidden from ages and generations of old, has now been made manifest to his saints.

mnt@Colossians:2:2 @ May their hearts be comforted! May they be knit together in love! May they gain in all its riches the full assurance of their understanding! May they come to a perfect knowledge of the secret truth of God, which is Christ himself.

mnt@Colossians:2:3 @ In Him are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge!

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

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

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

mnt@Colossians:2:14 @ blotted out the handwriting of ordinances that stood against us and was hostile to us, and took it out of our way, nailing it to his cross.

mnt@Colossians:2:15 @ Principalities and powers he disarmed, and openly displayed them as his trophies, when he triumphed over them in the cross.

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

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

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

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

mnt@Colossians:2:23 @ For these precepts, although they have a show of wisdom with their self-imposed devotions and fastings and bodily austerities, are of no real value against the indulgence of the carnal appetites.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@Colossians:4:4 @ Pray that I may unfold it as I ought to speak.

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

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

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

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

mnt@Colossians:4:17 @ And tell Archippas to take heed to the ministry which he has received in the Lord, that he may fulfill it.

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

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

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

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For my preaching was not grounded on a delusion, or on impure motives, on in deceit.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as my fitness to be entrusted with the gospel has been tested and approved by God, I so speak, not to please men, but to please God, who is testing my motives.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ The men who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out - they are displeasing to God, and are the enemies of all mankind.

mnt@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ They forbid me to speak to the Gentiles with a view to their salvation. They continue always to fill up the measure of their sins; but the wrath of God is come upon them to the full!

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

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

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

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

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

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ Not in the passion of lust, like the Gentiles who know not God.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ For God has not called us for uncleanness, but in holiness.

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

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

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we really believe that Jesus died and rose again, so even so will God through Jesus bring with him those also who have fallen asleep.

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

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

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ So then let us not be sleeping as do the rest, but let us be watchful and self-controlled.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day be self-controlled, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

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

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ Pray without ceasing.

mnt@1Thessalonians:5:21 @ But try all, holding fast to the good.

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

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

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ the adversary, who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God, or is an object of worship; so that he takes his seat in the Temple of God, and vaunts himself as God.

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:11 @ For this reason God is sending on them an energy of delusion, that they should put faith in a falsehood;

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ so that they all should be condemned, who are faithless to the truth, but take pleasure in evil.

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

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ And may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal encouragement and a good hope in grace,

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that I may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for all do not hold the faith.

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

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

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

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

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ If any man does not give heed to what I have said in this letter, mark that man; do not associate with him, so as to make him feel ashamed;

mnt@2Thessalonians:3:15 @ and yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

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

mnt@1Timothy:1:12 @ And I am thankful to Christ Jesus our Lord, who has thus enabled me, that he accounted me faithful, and appointed me to his service,

mnt@1Timothy:1:13 @ although I had formerly been a blasphemer and a persecutor and a doer of outrage. But I obtained mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief.

mnt@1Timothy:1:16 @ Yet for this very cause I obtained mercy, so that in me, the chief of sinners, Jesus Christ might display all his boundless patience as an illustration for those who should later believe in him, and so gain life eternal.

mnt@1Timothy:1:20 @ Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have given over to Satan, so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.

mnt@1Timothy:2:3 @ For this is good and pleasing in the eyes of our Saviour God,

mnt@1Timothy:2:7 @ It was for this testimony that I myself was appointed a herald and apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), to be a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

mnt@1Timothy:2:13 @ It was Adam who was first formed, then Eve.

mnt@1Timothy:2:14 @ And it was not Adam who was deceived; but it was the woman who was thoroughly deceived, and who became involved in transgression.

mnt@1Timothy:3:1 @ This is a faithful saying, "If any man is seeking the office of a minister he is aspiring to a noble task."

mnt@1Timothy:3:10 @ They should first be tested, and after that, if they are found irreproachable, let them serve as deacons.

mnt@1Timothy:3:13 @ For those who have well discharged the duties of a deacon are gaining an honorable position for themselves, as well as much fearless confidence in the faith of Christ Jesus.

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

mnt@1Timothy:4:2 @ speaking lies in hypocrisy. These are men whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron,

mnt@1Timothy:4:4 @ For everything that God has created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if only it is received with thankfulness.

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

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

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

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

mnt@1Timothy:5:4 @ but if any widow has children or grandchildren, let these learn to show their piety first toward their own household, and to make some return to their parents, for that is pleasing in Gods sight.

mnt@1Timothy:5:5 @ Now she who is a widow indeed, and desolate, has fixed her hope on God, and devotes herself to supplications and prayers, day and night.

mnt@1Timothy:5:8 @ But if any one fails to provide for his own, and especially for his kindred, he has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel.

mnt@1Timothy:5:9 @ A widow, to be placed upon the list, must be not less than sixty years old, and one who has been the wife of but one husband.

mnt@1Timothy:5:10 @ She must be well reputed for good works, as one who has brought up a family, received strangers with hospitality, washed the feet of the saints, relieved the distressed, and diligently followed every good work.

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

mnt@1Timothy:5:15 @ For already some widows have gone astray after Satan.

mnt@1Timothy:5:16 @ Any believing woman, who has widowed relatives, ought to relieve them and not let the church be burdened with them; so that the church may relieve the really destitute widows.

mnt@1Timothy:5:17 @ Let the elders who fill their offices well, be held worthy of twofold honor; especially those who have the task of preaching and teaching.

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

mnt@1Timothy:6:1 @ Let those who are under the yoke as slaves esteem their masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teachings be not blasphemed.

mnt@1Timothy:6:2 @ Those whose masters are Christian believers must not treat them with disrespect, because they are brothers; nay, rather slave for them the better because those who get the benefit of their services are believing and beloved. Continue to teach and preach this.

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

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

mnt@2Timothy:1:8 @ Do not then be ashamed to bear witness for our Lord, nor for me, his prisoner. Nay, join with me in suffering for the gospel by the power of God.

mnt@2Timothy:1:9 @ He has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not dealing with us according to our works,but according to his purpose and grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time.

mnt@Hebrews:1:2 @ has at the end of these days spoken to us in a Son whom he appointed heir of all things; through whom also he made the universe.

mnt@Hebrews:1:3 @ He being an emanation of Gods glory and stamp of his substance, and upholding the universe by the utterances of his power, after by himself making purification of our sins, has taken his seat on the right hand of the Majesty on High.

mnt@Hebrews:1:4 @ He is as much superior to the angels as the name that he has inherited surpasses theirs.

mnt@Hebrews:1:9 @ Thou hast loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore did God, thy God, anoint thee with the oil of gladness beyond thy comrades.

mnt@Hebrews:1:13 @ To which of the angels has he ever said, Sit at my right hand, Till I make thy foes a footstool for thy feet?

mnt@Hebrews:2:1 @ For this reason we must pay the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, for fear we should drift away.

mnt@Hebrews:2:3 @ Which having begun to be spoken by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him;

mnt@Hebrews:2:7 @ Thou hast made him only a little lower that the angels; With glory and honor hast thou crowned him; And hast set him to govern the works of thy hands;

mnt@Hebrews:2:8 @ Thou hast put all things under his feet. For this putting all things under man means leaving nothing not subject to him. But we do not yet see all things subject to him.

mnt@Hebrews:2:9 @ What we do see is Jesus, who was made for a time a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor, because of the suffering of death, in order that through Gods grace he might taste death for every man.

mnt@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both he who sanctifies and those whom he is sanctifying are all from One; for which reason he is not ashamed to call them brothers, saying.

mnt@Hebrews:2:13 @ And again, I myself will put my trust in God. And again, Lo, I and the children God has given me.

mnt@Hebrews:2:16 @ For assuredly it is not angels, nay, it is the offspring of Abraham, whom he is ever taking by the hand.

mnt@Hebrews:2:17 @ And so it was necessary that he should in all points be made like his brothers, so that he might become a compassionate and faithful high priest, in all that relates to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

mnt@Hebrews:2:18 @ For inasmuch as he himself has suffered, being tempted, he is also able instantly to succor those who are tempted, he is also able instantly to succor those who are tempted.

mnt@Hebrews:3:2 @ How faithful he was to the God who appointed him! For while Moses also was faithful in all Gods house,

mnt@Hebrews:3:3 @ Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has built a house has higher honor than the house itself.

mnt@Hebrews:3:4 @ For every house has its builder; but he who built the universe is God.

mnt@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, bearing testimony to a witness about to be spoken;

mnt@Hebrews:3:6 @ but Christ as a Son in his own house; and we are that house, if we retain the cheerful courage and pride of our hope firm unto the end.

mnt@Hebrews:3:7 @ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says. If you hear Gods voice today,

mnt@Hebrews:3:8 @ Continue not to harden your hearts as in the Provocation, On the day of temptation in the wilderness,

mnt@Hebrews:3:10 @ For this reason I was sore displeased with that generation, And said, "They are always wandering in their hearts; They have never learned my ways";

mnt@Hebrews:3:12 @ See to it, brothers, that there shall never be in any one of you an evil and unbelieving heart, manifesting itself in apostasy from the living God.

mnt@Hebrews:3:13 @ On the contrary, encourage each other daily, so long as there is a "Today," so that no one of you is hindered by the deceitfulness of sin.

mnt@Hebrews:3:15 @ In the words of Scripture, Today, if you hear his voice, Do not continue to harden your hearts as at the Provocation.

mnt@Hebrews:3:16 @ For who were they that heard and yet provoked him? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under the leadership of Moses?

mnt@Hebrews:3:17 @ And with whom was he grieved for forty years? Was it not with those who had sinned, and whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness?

mnt@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear that they should never enter into his rest, if not to those who had proved faithless? So you see that it was through unbelief that they were not able to enter in.

mnt@Hebrews:4:2 @ For the Good News is come to us just as it did to them. But the message they heard was of no benefit to them, because they did not share the faith of those who gave heed to it.

mnt@Hebrews:4:3 @ We are actually entering into that rest, we who have believed, as God has said, -In my wrath I swore - "They shall not enter into my Rest," although his works were finished since the foundation of the world.

mnt@Hebrews:4:4 @ For he has said, somewhere, regarding the seventh day, And God rested on the seventh day from all his work.

mnt@Hebrews:4:5 @ And again in this passage, They shall not enter into my rest.

mnt@Hebrews:4:10 @ For whoever has entered into his rest has rested from his works, just as God did from his.

mnt@Hebrews:4:14 @ Inasmuch, then, as we have a great High Priest, Jesus, the Son of God, who has passed through the heavens, let us hold fast our confession of faith.

mnt@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in all points like as we are, yet without sin.

mnt@Hebrews:5:2 @ He is able to deal gently with the ignorant and erring, since he himself also is encompassed with moral weakness,

mnt@Hebrews:5:4 @ Again no one takes this honorable office for himself, but he is called by God, just as Aaron was.

mnt@Hebrews:5:5 @ So even the Christ was not raised to the high glory of the priesthood by himself, but on the contrary by Him who said to him. Thou art my Son; this day have I become thy Father;

mnt@Hebrews:5:7 @ In the days of his flesh, with better cries and weeping Jesus offered up prayers and supplications to Him who was able to save him out of death; and he was heard because of his devout submission.

mnt@Hebrews:5:8 @ Though he was a son, yet learned he obedience through the things which he suffered;

mnt@Hebrews:6:4 @ For in the case of those who have been once for all enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift,

mnt@Hebrews:6:5 @ and become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the Future Age,

mnt@Hebrews:6:7 @ For land that has drunk the showers that now and again fall upon it, and produced vegetation useful for those for whom it was tilled, receives a blessing from God;

mnt@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you showed for his cause, in sending help to your fellow Christians, as you are still doing.

mnt@Hebrews:6:14 @ Surely I will bless you, and bless you; I will increase you, and increase you.

mnt@Hebrews:6:18 @ that by means of two immutable things - his promise and his oath - in which it is impossible for God to break faith, we refugees may have strong encouragement to grasp the hope set before us.

mnt@Hebrews:6:19 @ This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, secure and strong, and passing into the sanctuary which is beyond the veil;

mnt@Hebrews:6:20 @ whither Jesus himself is entered as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a priest forever, after the order of Melchisedek.

mnt@Hebrews:7:1 @ It was this Melchisedek, King of Salem and Priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him;

mnt@Hebrews:7:2 @ and it was to him that Abraham apportioned a tithe of all the spoil. He was first, as his name signifies, King of righteousness, and then King of Salem, that is, King of Peace;

mnt@Hebrews:7:4 @ But observe how great this man was, to whom even Abraham, the Patriarch, gave a tenth part of the spoils.

mnt@Hebrews:7:8 @ Again it is mortal men who receive tithes in the one case; while in the other it is he of whom it is attested, "He lives."

mnt@Hebrews:7:10 @ for Levi was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedek met Abraham.

mnt@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if there were perfection through the Levitical priesthood, (and it was under it that the people received the Law) why was it still necessary for another kind of priest to arise, after the order of Melchisedek, instead of being reckoned according to the order of Aaron?

mnt@Hebrews:7:13 @ He who is thus described belonged to another tribe, not one member of which has ever served at the altar.

mnt@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, a tribe of which Moses said nothing concerning the priesthood.

mnt@Hebrews:7:16 @ who has become such, not according to the law of a transitory enactment, but according to the energy of an indissoluble life.

mnt@Hebrews:7:18 @ For there is a setting aside of a foregoing commandment, because of its weakness and unprofitableness

mnt@Hebrews:7:20 @ mightier because it was not promised apart from an oath.

mnt@Hebrews:7:27 @ one who has no need, like the high priests, to offer up daily sacrifices, first for his own sins, then for those of the people. For his sacrifice was made once for all, when he offered up himself.

mnt@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the Law appoints human beings to be high priests, men with all their weakness; but the word of the oath, which was later than the Law, appoints a Son, perfected forevermore.

mnt@Hebrews:8:1 @ The pith of all that we have been saying is this; we do have such a High Priest; and he has taken his seat on the right hand of the throne of Majesty in the heavens,

mnt@Hebrews:8:5 @ those priests who serve a mere outline and shadow of the heavenly reality, just as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to build the Tabernacle. "See", he says, "that you make everything on the pattern showed you on the mountain."

mnt@Hebrews:8:6 @ But Jesus has obtained a better ministry, by so much as he is also Mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted upon better promises.

mnt@Hebrews:8:11 @ And they shall not teach every man his fellow citizen, And every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord; For all shall know me, From the least to the greatest of them.

mnt@Hebrews:8:13 @ By calling the covenant "new," He has made the first one obsolete; and whatever is becoming obsolete and aged, is near to vanishing.

mnt@Hebrews:9:2 @ For a tent was built, the outer one called the Holy Place, in which were the lamp and the table and the loaves of the Presence;

mnt@Hebrews:9:3 @ and behind the second veil was the tent called the Holy of Holies.

mnt@Hebrews:9:4 @ In it was the golden altar of incense, and also the Ark of the Covenant covered all over with gold, in which was a golden pot holding the manna, and Aarons rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;

mnt@Hebrews:9:8 @ The Holy Spirit teaching by this that the way into the Holiest has not yet been disclosed while the first tent is still standing.

mnt@Hebrews:9:9 @ This is a parable, for the present time, according to which gifts and sacrifices are offered that are not able, as far as conscience is concerned, to perfect the worshiper;

mnt@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ came, a High Priest of good things to come, he passed through the greater and more perfect tent not made with hands, that is to say, not of this material creation,

mnt@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleansing of the flesh,

mnt@Hebrews:9:15 @ And because of this he is the Mediator of a new testament, in order that, since a death has taken place to atone for offenses committed under the first testament, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

mnt@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a testament is only of force in case of the dead, being never valid so long as the testator lives.

mnt@Hebrews:9:18 @ Accordingly we find that not without blood was the first testament enacted.

mnt@Hebrews:9:23 @ While, then, it was necessary that the copies of the heavenly things should be cleansed by such sacrifices, the heavenly things themselves required nobler sacrifices than these.

mnt@Hebrews:9:24 @ For it was not into a Sanctuary made by hands, a mere type of the reality, that Christ entered, but he entered into heaven itself, now to appear in the very presence of God on our behalf.

mnt@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor did he enter to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest entered into the sanctuary, year after year, with blood that was not his own; (for in that case he would have needed to suffer repeatedly, ever since the foundation of the world;)but now, once for all, at the end of the ages, he has appeared to abolish sin, but the offering of himself.

mnt@Hebrews:10:2 @ Otherwise would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshippers having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sin.

mnt@Hebrews:10:5 @ It is for this reason that the Christ, on coming into the world, declared. Sacrifice and offerings thou dost not desire, But a body didst thou prepare for me;

mnt@Hebrews:10:6 @ In whole burnt offerings and sin offerings Thou hast taken no pleasure.

mnt@Hebrews:10:8 @ First when it is said, Thou hast no longing for, thou takest no delight in Sacrifices and offerings, or whole burnt offerings and sin offerings,

mnt@Hebrews:10:13 @ henceforth waiting until his enemies be put as the footstool of his feet.

mnt@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one single offering he has perfected forever those whom he is sanctifying.

mnt@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, our hearts sprinkled from and evil conscience, and our bodies bathed in pure water.

mnt@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope, unwavering (for He is faithful who promised);

mnt@Hebrews:10:25 @ not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the custom of some, but exhorting one another; all the more as you behold the Day drawing near.

mnt@Hebrews:10:28 @ Any one who set at naught the law of Moses was put to death without pity, on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

mnt@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much surer, think you, will be the punishment of one who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has profaned that covenant blood with which he was sanctified, and has done despite to the spirit of grace?

mnt@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you did sympathize with the prisoners, and you did take joyfully the confiscation of your goods; conscious that you had for yourselves greater, even lasting possessions.

mnt@Hebrews:10:35 @ Now do not fling away your bold confidence, for it has a great recompense of reward.

mnt@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you need stedfastness, so that after having done the will of God, you may receive the promise,

mnt@Hebrews:10:38 @ But it is by faith that my Righteous One will live, And if he draws back, my soul takes no pleasure in him.

mnt@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that the world was fashioned by the Word of God, so that what we see was not made out of what is visible.

mnt@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a sacrifice more acceptable than that of Cain, through which he had witness borne to him that he was righteous, God giving the testimony by accepting his gifts; and through it he, although he is dead, still speaks.

mnt@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was translated so that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God had translated him. Before his translation he had witness borne to him that he pleased God.

mnt@Hebrews:11:6 @ now without faith it is impossible to please him; for he who comes to God must believe that he is, and that he ever rewards those who are seeking.

mnt@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out unto a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

mnt@Hebrews:11:9 @ It was by faith that he sojourned in the promised land as an alien, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, his fellow heirs of the same promise.

mnt@Hebrews:11:10 @ For he continually looked for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

mnt@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive seed, although she was past the age for child-bearing, because she counted Him faithful who had promised;

mnt@Hebrews:11:12 @ and thus there sprang from one man, and him practically dead, a nation like the stars in the heavens in multitude, or grains of sand upon the seashore, innumerable.

mnt@Hebrews:11:16 @ but now they are longing for a better homeland, that is, a heavenly. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; and he has prepared a city for them.

mnt@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, when he was put to the test, was on the point of offering up Isaac; yes, he who had received the promise was about to offer up his only son,

mnt@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Josephs sons, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.

mnt@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, when his end was nigh, made mention of the exodus of the children of Israel, and gave instructions in regard to his bones.

mnt@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, and they were not afraid of the kings decree.

mnt@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaohs daughter,

mnt@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to share ill-treatment with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.

mnt@Hebrews:11:26 @ He accounted the obloquy of Christ to be greater than the treasures of Egypt; for he fixed his eyes on the reward.

mnt@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he left Egypt, not because he feared the wrath of the king, but he endured as seeing Him who is invisible.

mnt@Hebrews:11:28 @ By faith he established the Passover, and the sprinkling with blood, in order that the Destroying Angel might not touch the firstborn.

mnt@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith the people crossed over the Red Sea as on dry land; and when the Egyptians tried to do this they were swallowed up.

mnt@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tempted, they were slain with the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, persecuted, tormented -

mnt@Hebrews:11:38 @ of whom the world was not worthy - wandering in deserts and mountains and caves and holes in the ground.

mnt@Hebrews:11:40 @ since it was for us that God had in store some better thing, so that apart from us they should not be perfected.

mnt@Hebrews:12:2 @ looking unto Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured a cross, despising shame, and has now taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.

mnt@Hebrews:12:5 @ and have you forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as sons? My son, do not despise the training of the Lord, Nor faint when he corrects you;

mnt@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you are enduring these sufferings. God is dealing with you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

mnt@Hebrews:12:8 @ If you are left without discipline, in which all children share, then are you bastards and not sons.

mnt@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they only disciplined us for a few days, as seemed good to them; but he does it for our profit, that we may share his holiness.

mnt@Hebrews:12:17 @ For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; he found no room for repentance, though he sought it earnestly, with tears.

mnt@Hebrews:12:20 @ For they could not endure that which was enjoined, Even if a wild beast touches the mountain it shall be stoned to death;

mnt@James:1:24 @ for after he has looked carefully at himself, he goes away, and at once forgets what he is like.

mnt@James:2:1 @ My brothers, do not hold the faith of the Lord Jesus, the Lord of Glory, in a spirit of caste.

mnt@James:2:5 @ Listen, my dear brothers, has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith, and to inherit the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

mnt@James:2:7 @ Are they not blaspheming that glorious Name by which you are called?

mnt@James:2:8 @ If you are keeping the royal law, which says, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thou dost thyself, you are doing well.

mnt@James:2:9 @ If you have the spirit of caste you are committing sin, and are convicted by the Law as transgressors.

mnt@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to the man who has showed no mercy. but mercy glories in the face of judgment.

mnt@James:2:14 @ My brothers, what good is it if any one says that he has faith, if he has no deeds? Can such faith save him?

mnt@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our ancestor justified by deeds, in that he offered up Isaac, his son, upon the altar?

mnt@James:2:22 @ You see how faith was cooperating with deeds, and faith was made perfect by deeds.

mnt@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which said, And Abraham believed God, and this was imputed to him as righteousness, and he was called Gods friend.

mnt@James:2:25 @ In like manner was not Rahab, the harlot, justified by her deeds, in the fact that she received the messengers and sent them forth by another way?

mnt@James:2:26 @ So just as the body without a spirit is dead, so faith is dead without deeds.

mnt@James:3:2 @ For in many respects we often stumble. If any man never stumbles in speech, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well.

mnt@James:3:5 @ So also the tongue is a small member and makes great boasts. Behold, how great a forest is set on fire by a little spark!

mnt@James:3:7 @ For while every kind of beast and bird, and of reptiles and sea- creatures are tamable, and actually have been tamed by mankind,

mnt@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, do not be boasting of that, and be false to the truth.

mnt@James:4:2 @ You continually crave and do not obtain; you are killing and coveting and cannot acquire; you are fighting and at war. You do not have, because you do not ask.

mnt@James:4:3 @ You continue to ask and do not receive, because you are asking with a wrong purpose, in order to spend it upon your pleasures.

mnt@James:4:5 @ Or do you suppose that it is in vain that the Scripture says, "The spirit which has its home in us yearns over us unto jealousy?"

mnt@James:4:16 @ But now you are glorying in these insolent boastings of yours; all such glorying is evil.

mnt@James:5:2 @ For your riches lie rotting, and your clothing has become moth-eaten.

mnt@1Peter:2:7 @ For you, then, that believe, is the preciousness; but for those who do not believe, A stone which the builders rejected, The same has become the head stone of the corner,

mnt@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people, that you may show forth the virtues of Him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light -

mnt@1Peter:2:11 @ I beseech you, beloved, as pilgrims and exiles, to abstain from passions of the flesh that war upon your souls.

mnt@1Peter:2:12 @ Let your manner of life before the Gentiles be honest; so that, although they are now slandering you as evil-doers, they may, by beholding your noble conduct, come to glorify God, in the day of visitation.

mnt@1Peter:2:13 @ Submit yourselves, for the Lords sake, to every human authority; whether it be to the Emperor as supreme ruler,

mnt@1Peter:2:14 @ or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers and for the encouragement of well-doers.

mnt@1Peter:2:18 @ Household slaves, submit yourselves to your masters in all reverence; not only to the kind and gentle, but also to the unreasonable.

mnt@1Peter:2:22 @ He committed no sin, Neither was guile found in his mouth.

mnt@1Peter:2:23 @ He was reviled, and reviled not back. When he suffered he never threatened but always committed his cause to the One who judges rightly.

mnt@1Peter:3:7 @ In the same way you husbands live with your wives, according to knowledge, honoring your wife as of the weaker sex, yet as an heir with yourself of the grace of life; so that your prayers may not be hindered.

mnt@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, you should all be harmonious, sympathetic, loving as brothers, tender-hearted, humble-minded;

mnt@1Peter:3:15 @ But consecrate Christ in your hearts, as Lord. Be always in readiness to make and answer to any one who asks you a reason for the hope that is within you, yet with gentleness and reverence.

mnt@1Peter:3:16 @ See that you have a clear conscience, so that, although they speak of you as evil-doers, these libelers of your good Christian lives may be ashamed.

mnt@1Peter:3:18 @ because Christ also once for all suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but make alive in spirit.

mnt@1Peter:3:19 @ (It was in spirit that he went and preached the Word to the spirits who were in prison,

mnt@1Peter:3:20 @ who in old times had been disobedient, when Gods longsuffering was waiting in the days of Noah, while an ark was building, in which a few persons - eight in number - were saved by water.)

mnt@1Peter:3:21 @ Baptism, the counterpart of that, now saves you (not the washing off of the filth of the flesh, but the prayer for a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

mnt@1Peter:4:1 @ Since, then, Christ suffered in the flesh, do you also ever arm yourselves with the same mind (because he who has suffered in the flesh has done with sin),

mnt@1Peter:4:3 @ For the time past of life may suffice us to have worked the will of the Gentiles, when we spent our life in lasciviousness, lusts, hard drinking, revelry, banqueting, and abominable idol worship.

mnt@1Peter:4:4 @ They are astonished at this, that you do not run into the same excesses of profligacy as they do; and they speak evil of you.

mnt@1Peter:4:6 @ The gospel was preached for this cause to those who were dead also, that they might be judged according to men in flesh, but live according to God in spirit.

mnt@1Peter:4:10 @ Whatever the gifts which each has received, use them for one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

mnt@1Peter:4:11 @ If any one preaches, let him always preach as one who utters Gods truth; if any one serves another, let it be with the strength which God supplies; so that in every way God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory and dominion for ever and ever, Amen.

mnt@1Peter:4:12 @ Do not think it strange, beloved, that a fiery ordeal has come to test you, as though some surprising thing had befallen you.

mnt@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evil-doer, or as a spy upon other peoples business.

mnt@1Peter:4:16 @ But if any man is suffering as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him ever glorify God in this Name.

mnt@1Peter:4:19 @ So let those who are suffering according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well-doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

mnt@1Peter:5:1 @ Now to you who are presbyters I make this appeal; for I am myself a presbyter, and was a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory about to be revealed.

mnt@1Peter:5:7 @ Cast all your care upon him, for he ever cares for you.

mnt@1Peter:5:10 @ But the God of all grace, who has called us by Christ Jesus to share his eternal glory, will, after you have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

mnt@1Peter:5:12 @ By Sylvanus, a faithful brother of yours, as I suppose, I have written you briefly, to comfort you, and to testify that this is the true grace of God. In this stand fast.

mnt@2Peter:1:3 @ For his power divine has granted to us everything needful for life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue.

mnt@2Peter:1:4 @ By these he has granted his promises to us, precious and splendid; so that through them you may become partners of the divine nature, now that you have escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

mnt@2Peter:1:5 @ For this very reason do your best to add to your faith manliness, and to manliness knowledge,

mnt@2Peter:1:6 @ and to knowledge self-control, and to self-control stedfastness, and to stedfastness piety,

mnt@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these virtues are yours in abounding measure, they render you not idle nor unfruitful, until you come into the full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mnt@2Peter:1:13 @ So I think it right, as long as I am in this "tent," to rouse you by way of reminding you,

mnt@2Peter:1:14 @ since I know that the time for me to strike tent comes swiftly on, even as our Lord Jesus Christ pointed out to me.

mnt@2Peter:1:17 @ For he did receive honor and glory from God the Father, when there was borne such a voice to him from the Majestic Glory, This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom I delight;

mnt@2Peter:1:19 @ And so we possess the word of prophecy made yet more sure. Unto this you do well to give heed as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

mnt@2Peter:1:20 @ But first be assured of this - that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.

mnt@2Peter:1:21 @ For no prophecy was ever brought by the will of man; but moved by the Holy Spirit, men spoke for God.

mnt@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were false prophets, too, among the people, just as among you also there will be false teachers. These will secretly bring in destructive sects, denying even the Master who bought them, and bringing swift ruin upon themselves.

mnt@2Peter:2:3 @ In their covetousness, with cunning words, they will make merchandise of you; those whose doom has not been idle from of old, and whose destruction has not been slumbering.

mnt@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to chains of darkness, and reserved them for judgment;

mnt@2Peter:2:6 @ if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and reduced them to ashes, thus holding them up as a warning to all who would live ungodly;

mnt@2Peter:2:7 @ and he delivered righteous Lot who was worn out by the lascivious life of the wicked

mnt@2Peter:2:11 @ even where angels, though surpassing them in strength and might, do not bring a railing judgment against them before the Lord.

mnt@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong as the wage of wrong which they have done. These are men who count it pleasure to carouse in open daylight; they are spots and blemishes reveling in their deceit, even while they are feasting with you.

mnt@2Peter:2:16 @ He was, however, rebuked for his own transgression; a dumb ass spoke with a mans voice, and stopped the madness of the prophet.

mnt@2Peter:2:17 @ Such men are like waterless springs, or mists storm-driven; for them the blackness of darkness has been reserved.

mnt@2Peter:2:18 @ For speaking great swelling words of vanity, they entangle, by their lasciviousness, in the lusts of the flesh, those who are just about to escape from the men that live in misconduct.

mnt@2Peter:2:19 @ They promise them liberty, while they themselves are slaves of rottenness! (For indeed a man is the slave of anything which masters him.)

mnt@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after having escaped the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, men are again entangled in them and overpowered, their last state is become worse than their first.

mnt@2Peter:2:22 @ In their case it has happened according to the true proverb, The dog returns again to his own vomit, and The sow, after washing, to her wallowing in the mire.

mnt@2Peter:3:3 @ Know this first, that mockers will come in the last days, in their mockery, men who walk the way of their own lusts

mnt@2Peter:3:4 @ and say, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the day that our fathers fell asleep everything continues as it was from the beginning of the creation."

mnt@2Peter:3:6 @ and that by the same means the world which then existed was destroyed by a deluge of water.

mnt@2Peter:3:8 @ Do not forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

mnt@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord does not loiter over his promise, as some men esteem loitering; but he is longsuffering toward you, not purposing that any should perish, but that all should pass on to repentance.

mnt@2Peter:3:10 @ But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief; and on that Day the heavens will vanish with a crash, the heavenly bodies will melt with fervent heat, and the earth and all its works will be burned up.

mnt@2Peter:3:12 @ while you look for and hasten the coming of the Day of God. At its coming the heavens, being on fire, will be dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt with fervent heat.

mnt@2Peter:3:15 @ Regard our Lords longsuffering as salvation; even as our dear brother Paul also wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him.

mnt@2Peter:3:16 @ It is the same in all his letters when he speaks of these things. There are indeed some things in his letters hard to understand, which the ignorant and the shifty wrest, as also they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

mnt@2Peter:3:17 @ Do you therefore, beloved, because you know these things beforehand, be on your guard lest you be led astray by the error of the wicked, and so fall from your own stedfastness.

mnt@1John:1:1 @ It is of what has existed from the beginning, of what we have listened to, of what we have seen with our own eyes, of what we have witnessed and touched with our own heads, it is concerning the Logos of Life that we are now writing.

mnt@1John:1:2 @ And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us.

mnt@1John:1:6 @ If we say, "We have partnership with Him," when we are passing our life in the darkness, we are lying and are not doing the truth.

mnt@1John:1:7 @ But is we are passing our life in the light, as he is in the light, we ever have partnership with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ is cleansing us from every sin.

mnt@1John:2:6 @ By who says he "remains in him" ought to spend his life as he spent his.

mnt@1John:2:8 @ Yet again it is a new commandment which I am writing to you, which is true in him and is you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

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

mnt@1John:2:17 @ and the world and its lusts are passing away, but he who ever does the will of God abides forever.

mnt@1John:2:18 @ My children, this is the last hour, and as you have heard that an antichrist was coming, and now many antichrists are already risen, whence we may know that it is the last hour.

mnt@1John:2:23 @ Whoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father; but he who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you.

mnt@1John:2:25 @ And this is the promise which he has promised to us even life eternal.

mnt@1John:2:26 @ I have written this to you concerning those who would lead you astray.

mnt@1John:2:27 @ As to you, the unction you received from him remains ever in you, and you need no teaching from any one. But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true, and is no lie, abide continually in him, as it has taught you to do.

mnt@1John:2:28 @ And now continue to abide in him, my children, so that when he shall appear we may have cheerful confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

mnt@1John:2:29 @ If you know that he is righteous you know also that every one who habitually practises righteousness has been born of him.

mnt@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has given us in allowing us to be called "Children of God!" And that is what we are. For this reason the world does not recognize us, because it did not know him.

mnt@1John:3:2 @ We are Gods children now, beloved; what we shall be has never yet been made manifest. But we know that when he is manifested we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is.

mnt@1John:3:3 @ And every one who is holding this hope in him is purifying himself, even as he is pure.

mnt@1John:3:5 @ And you know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin.

mnt@1John:3:6 @ Whoever continually abides in him does not habitually sin; whoever lives in sin has not seen him, nor come to know him.

mnt@1John:3:7 @ My children, let no one deceive you; he who is working righteousness is righteous, just as he is righteous.

mnt@1John:3:8 @ He who is committing sin is of the devil, because from the beginning of the devil is sinning. It was for this cause that the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

mnt@1John:3:12 @ We are not to be like Cain, who belonged to the Evil One, and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? It was because his own deeds were evil, and his brothers, righteous.

mnt@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have migrated, out of death into life, because we love our brothers. He who has no love is abiding in death.

mnt@1John:3:15 @ Every one who is hating his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

mnt@1John:3:17 @ But whoever has this worlds goods, and beholds his brother in need, and shuts up his heart against him, how can the love of God continue to abide in him?

mnt@1John:3:22 @ and whatever we ask we are receiving from him, because we are keeping his commandments and doing those things that are pleasing in his sight.

mnt@1John:3:23 @ His commandment is this, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another as he has commanded us to do.

mnt@1John:3:24 @ He who keeps his commandments is abiding in Him, and Christ in him. By this we know that Christ is abiding in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.

mnt@1John:4:5 @ They are of the world, and for this reason they speak as of the world, and the world listens to them.

mnt@1John:4:9 @ In this was the love of God clearly shown toward us, by his sending his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.

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

mnt@1John:4:13 @ By this we come to know that we are abiding in him, and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit;

mnt@1John:4:14 @ and we have beheld and do testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

mnt@1John:4:16 @ And we do know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love; and he who is abiding in love is abiding in God, and God is abiding in him.

mnt@1John:4:17 @ In this is love made perfect with us, so that we may have cheerful confidence in the Day of Judgment, because we are living in this world as He lives.

mnt@1John:4:18 @ Fear does not exist in love; but love, when it is perfect, drives out fear. For fear has always torment, and he who has fear is not yet perfected in love.

mnt@1John:4:20 @ If any one says, "I love God," and yet hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot possibly love God, whom he has not seen.

mnt@1John:5:4 @ For whoever is a child of God is overcoming the world; and our faith is the victory that has overcome the world.

mnt@1John:5:9 @ If we accept mens testimony, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God, that he has borne testimony concerning his Son.

mnt@1John:5:10 @ He who believes on the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God, has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne concerning his Son.

mnt@1John:5:11 @ And the testimony is this, "God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son."

mnt@1John:5:12 @ He who has the Son has the life; he who has not the Son of God has not the life.

mnt@1John:5:14 @ Now the confidence which we have in him is this, that he listens to us whenever we ask anything that is in accordance with his will.

mnt@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that he is listening to us in what ever we are asking, we know that we obtain the petitions which we have made to him.

mnt@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees his brother committing a sin that is not deadly, he shall ask, and God will give him life, for any one who is not committing a deadly sin. There is a deadly sin; concerning that I do not say that he should pray.

mnt@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God is come, and has granted us and understanding, so that we may come to know him who is true. And we are in him who is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and life eternal.

mnt@2John:1:4 @ I am greatly rejoiced to find some of your children leading their lives in truth, even as we received commandment from the Father.

mnt@2John:1:5 @ And now I am entreating you, Lady, not as though I were writing some new commandment to you, but one which we have had from the beginning, let us love one another.

mnt@2John:1:6 @ And this is love, that we should lead our lives according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should pass your life in love.

mnt@3John:1:2 @ I pray that you may prosper, beloved, in every way, and be in good health, even as your soul is prospering.

mnt@3John:1:3 @ For I was glad when brothers came and bore testimony to your truth, as indeed you are passing your life in truth.

mnt@3John:1:4 @ I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my children are passing their lives in the truth.

mnt@3John:1:11 @ Do not imitate what is evil, beloved, but that which is good. He who does good is of God; he who does evil has never gazed on God.

mnt@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, although I was making all haste to write to you in regard to our common salvation, I am compelled to write you an appeal to defend the faith once for all committed to the saints.

mnt@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men have crept in stealthily - men predestined in ancient prophecies for this condemnation - impious ones! They pervert the grace of our God into licentiousness, and deny Jesus Christ, our sole Master and Lord.

mnt@Jude:1:6 @ while the angels who did not keep their first domain but left their proper abode, are held by him in blank darkness, in everlasting chains, in preparation for the judgment of the Great Day.

mnt@Jude:1:7 @ So also Sodom and Gomorrah and the near-by cities which in like manner glutted themselves in sensuality and unnatural vice, are exhibited as a warning of the eternal fire, in the punishment they undergo.

mnt@Jude:1:9 @ But Michael, the Archangel, when in contending with the devil, he was disputing about the body of Moses, did not dare to pronounce sentence for blasphemy, but said, "The Lord rebuke you."

mnt@Jude:1:10 @ Yet these men blaspheme about matters of which they know nothing, while they use such things as they do understand by instinct (like the animals who have no reason) for their own destruction.

mnt@Jude:1:11 @ Alas for them! They have walked in the path of Cain; for the sake of gain they have rushed headlong into Balaams error, and have perished in Korahs rebellion.

mnt@Jude:1:12 @ These are they who are stains upon your love-feasts; when they feast sumptuously without scruple, looking after none but themselves. They are clouds without water, driven along by the winds; trees of autumn, fruitless, doubly dead, torn up by the roots,

mnt@Jude:1:14 @ It was to these, too, that Enoch, the "seventh in descent from Adam," prophesied, saying, "Lo! the Lord is come with myriads of his saints,

mnt@Jude:1:16 @ For these are murmurers, always complaining. They always go where their passions lead, and their mouth speaks great swelling words, while they pay court to men for the sake of the advantage they can get.

mnt@Jude:1:17 @ But as for you, dearly beloved, remember the words spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mnt@Jude:1:18 @ how they used to say to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will be led only by their godless passions."

mnt@Jude:1:24 @ Now unto Him who has power to guard you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of his glory, faultless and exultant,

mnt@Jude:1:25 @ to the only God, our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be ascribed glory, majesty, might, and authority, as it was before time began, is now, and ever shall be to all the ages. Amen.
