riversident@Mark:14:70 @ But he again denied. Again after a little the men who were standing by said to Peter, "Truly you are one of them, for you are a Galilaean."

riversident@Mark:14:72 @ Immediately, for the second time, the cock crew and Peter remembered what Jesus had said to him, and when he thought of it he wept aloud.

riversident@Mark:15:8 @ The crowd advanced and began asking him to do as he was accustomed to do for them.

riversident@Mark:15:9 @ Pilate answered them, "Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"

riversident@Mark:15:11 @ But the high priests incited the crowd to have him rather set free Barabbas for them.

riversident@Mark:16:6 @ But he said to them, "Do not be frightened. You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene who was crucified. He has risen. He is not here. This is the place where they laid him.

riversident@Mark:16:7 @ But go tell his disciples and Peter, He has gone before you into Galilee. There you will see him, as he told you."

riversident@John:4:42 @ and they said to the woman, "We no longer believe because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard him and we know that this is truly the Savior of the World."

riversident@John:4:45 @ So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed him because they had seen what he did in Jerusalem at the feast. For they, too, had gone to the feast.

riversident@John:4:47 @ This man heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee, and he came to him and begged him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death,

riversident@John:6:15 @ Jesus, perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, withdrew again up the mountain by himself alone.

riversident@John:6:21 @ Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and at once the boat came to the land they were making for.

riversident@John:6:24 @ when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there nor his disciples either, they got into those boats and came to Capernaum looking for Jesus.

riversident@John:6:64 @ For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray him.

riversident@John:6:71 @ He was speaking of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. For he was going to betray him, though he was one of the twelve.

riversident@John:7:1 @ AFTER this Jesus went about in Galilee; for he would not go about in Judaea because the Jews were trying to kill him.

riversident@John:7:4 @ For no one does anything in secret while desiring to be known publicly. If you are doing these things, show yourself to the world."

riversident@John:7:5 @ For neither did his brothers believe in him.

riversident@John:7:11 @ The Jews were looking for him at the feast and were saying, "Where is that man?"

riversident@John:7:13 @ Nobody, however, was talking openly about him for fear of the Jews.

riversident@John:7:26 @ See, he is talking freely and they say nothing to him. It cannot be that the rulers know for truth that this is the Christ?

riversident@John:7:30 @ They tried to arrest him, but no one laid a hand on him, for his hour had not yet come.

riversident@John:7:39 @ This he said referring to the Spirit which those who had believed in him were soon to receive. For as yet there was no Spirit, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

riversident@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus said to them \'97 he who came to Jesus before \'97 being himself one of them,

riversident@John:9:8 @ His neighbors and those accustomed to see him before, when he was begging, said, "Is not this the man that sat and begged?"

riversident@John:9:21 @ But how he sees now we do not know, or who opened his eyes we do not know. Ask him; he is of age; he shall speak for himself."

riversident@John:9:22 @ His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews. For the Jews had already agreed that if any one confessed Jesus as the Christ, he should be cast out of the synagogue.

riversident@John:9:23 @ For this reason his parents said, "He is of age, ask him."

riversident@John:9:38 @ He said, "I believe, Sir," and bowed down before him.

riversident@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered him, "For a good work we are not stoning you, but for profane words, because you, a man, are making yourself God."

riversident@John:11:19 @ and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them regarding their brother.

riversident@John:11:22 @ And now I know that whatever you ask God for, God will give you."

riversident@John:11:28 @ Having said this, she went away and called Mary her sister, saying to her privately, "The Teacher is here and is asking for you."

riversident@John:11:31 @ The Jews who were with Mary in the house trying to comfort her, seeing her rise quickly and go out, followed thinking that she was going to the tomb to wail there.

riversident@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Master, he is already offensive, for he has been dead four days."

riversident@John:11:44 @ Forth came the dead man, swathed feet and hands in grave-clothes and his face bound up in a handkerchief. Jesus said,

riversident@John:11:47 @ So the high priests and the Pharisees assembled the Council and said, "What are we doing? for this man is doing many signs.

riversident@John:11:50 @ nor do you reason that it is better for you that one man should die for the people and so the whole nation escape destruction."

riversident@John:11:51 @ He did not say this of himself, but being High Priest that year he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation,

riversident@John:11:52 @ and not for the nation only, but to gather into one the children of God now scattered far and wide.

riversident@John:11:55 @ The Passover of the Jews was near and many went up to Jerusalem from the country before the Passover to purify themselves.

riversident@John:11:56 @ They were looking for Jesus and were saying to one another, as they stood in the Temple courts, "What do you think? That he will not come to the feast?"

riversident@John:12:1 @ SIX days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was whom he had raised from the dead.

riversident@John:12:2 @ There they made a dinner for him. Martha waited on them, and Lazarus was one of those who reclined at table with him.

riversident@John:12:5 @ "Why was not this perfume sold for three hundred shillings and the money given to the poor?"

riversident@John:12:6 @ He said this, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief and having the purse used to pilfer what was put into it.

riversident@John:12:18 @ For this reason the crowd went to meet him, because they had heard that he had done this sign.

riversident@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered him, "We have heard out of the Law that the Christ remains forever. How do you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?"

riversident@John:12:37 @ But, though he had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in him,

riversident@John:12:39 @ For this reason they could not believe, because Isaiah said again,

riversident@John:12:43 @ for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

riversident@John:13:1 @ BEFORE the Feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that the hour had come for him to pass from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world loved them to the end.

riversident@John:13:11 @ For he knew the one who was going to betray him. For this reason he said,

riversident@John:13:29 @ Some thought, since Judas had the purse, that Jesus was telling him, "Buy what we need for the feast," or to give something to the poor.

riversident@John:13:37 @ Peter said to him, "Master, why cannot I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you."

riversident@John:16:30 @ Now we know that you know all things and that you have no need to have any one question you. From this we believe that you have come forth from God."

riversident@John:18:2 @ Judas who was betraying him knew the place, for Jesus often met with his disciples there.

riversident@John:18:4 @ Jesus, knowing all things that were coming upon him, came forward and said to them,

riversident@John:18:13 @ and took him first to Annas, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was High Priest that year.

riversident@John:18:14 @ Caiaphas was the man who had advised the Jews that it was best that one man should die for the people.

riversident@John:18:18 @ The servants and policemen were standing there. They had made a fire, for it was cold, and were warming themselves. Peter was with them, standing and warming himself.

riversident@John:18:31 @ Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and judge him by your law." The Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put any one to death."

riversident@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release for you one at the Passover. Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"

riversident@John:19:6 @ When the high priests and their subordinates saw him, they shouted, "Crucify him, crucify him!" Pilate said, "You take him and crucify him. For I find no crime in him."

riversident@John:19:20 @ Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.

riversident@John:19:31 @ The Jews, because it was Preparation Day, in order that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the Sabbath, for that Sabbath was a great day, requested Pilate to have their legs broken to kill them.

riversident@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers with his spear pierced his side and immediately there came forth blood and water.

riversident@John:19:36 @ For this happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him shall not be broken."

riversident@John:19:38 @ After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate permission to carry away the body of Jesus, and Pilate granted it. So he came and carried his body away.

riversident@John:19:40 @ They took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths with the spices, according to the custom of the Jews in preparing for burial.

riversident@John:20:9 @ For they did not yet know the Scripture that he must rise from the dead.

riversident@John:20:19 @ In the evening of that day, the first day of the week, when the doors had been closed where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst and said to them,

riversident@John:20:30 @ Jesus did before the disciples many other signs which are not written in this book.

riversident@John:21:6 @ He said to them, They cast, and now they could not draw it in for the multitude of fishes.

riversident@John:21:7 @ That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Master!" Simon Peter, on hearing that it was the Master, girded around him his blouse, for he was naked, and threw himself into the lake.

riversident@John:21:8 @ The other disciples came in the small boat, for they were not far from land \'97 about a hundred yards \'97 dragging the netful of fish.

riversident@John:21:25 @ There are also many other things that Jesus did, but if these are written, every one, I do not think that the world itself will have room for the books when written.

riversident@Acts:1:3 @ By many proofs he revealed himself to these men as still alive after his sufferings; for he was seen by them for forty days and spoke of things relating to the kingdom of God.

riversident@Acts:1:4 @ Also while eating with them, he charged them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, said he,

riversident@Acts:1:17 @ For he was numbered among us and received a share in this service.

riversident@Acts:1:20 @ For it is written in the book of Psalms, 'Let his dwelling become desolate and let there be no one living in it,' and, 'His overseership let another take.'

riversident@Acts:1:21 @ It is needful, therefore, that of the men who have been with us during all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

riversident@Acts:25:16 @ I answered them that it is not the custom of the Romans to give up any person for punishment before the accused has his accusers face to face and has opportunity for defense against the charge.

riversident@Acts:25:21 @ But when Paul appealed to be kept for the examination of the Emperor, I ordered him to be kept until I could send him to Caesar."

riversident@Acts:25:26 @ Concerning him I have nothing certain to write to my Lord. Therefore I have brought him before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, that after an examination I may have something to write.

riversident@Acts:25:27 @ For it seems to me unreasonable in sending a prisoner not to specify the charges against him."

riversident@Acts:26:1 @ AGRIPPA said to Paul, "You are at liberty to speak for yourself." Then Paul stretched out his hand and made his defense:

riversident@Acts:26:2 @ "In regard to all of the things of which I am accused by Jews, King Agrippa, I consider myself fortunate that I am to make my defense to-day before you,

riversident@Acts:26:3 @ since you are especially expert in all Jewish customs and questions. Therefore I pray you to hear me patiently.

riversident@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand to be tried for the hope of the promise which God made to our fathers,

riversident@Acts:26:7 @ to which our twelve tribes devotedly serving God night and day hope to attain. For this hope I am accused by the Jews, O King.

riversident@Acts:26:11 @ In all the synagogues and often I punished them and compelled them to say profane words. Being excessively mad against them, I pursued them even to foreign cities.

riversident@Acts:26:20 @ but first to the people in Damascus and then to the people of Jerusalem and through all the land of Judaea and to the Gentiles, I proclaimed that they should repent and turn to God and do deeds suitable for a change of heart.

riversident@Acts:26:21 @ "For this reason Jews seized me in the Temple courts and tried to kill me.

riversident@Acts:26:26 @ The King knows about this, and to him I speak with perfect frankness, for I am persuaded that not one of these things has escaped his attention, for this has not been done in a corner.

riversident@Acts:26:28 @ Agrippa said to Paul, "With little effort you are persuading me to become a Christian."

riversident@Acts:26:29 @ Paul said, "I would to God that whether with little or with much, not only you, but all who hear me this day, would become such as I am \'97 except for these chains."

riversident@Acts:27:1 @ WHEN it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they committed Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of an imperial battalion.

riversident@Acts:27:6 @ There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship bound for Italy and put us on board of her.

riversident@Acts:27:7 @ By slow sailing for many days we with difficulty arrived off Cnidus. Then the wind being against us, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone

riversident@Acts:27:14 @ But before long a hurricane, such as is called Euraquilo, swept down off the land.

riversident@Acts:27:15 @ When the ship was caught and unable to keep her head to the wind, we gave up and let her drive before it.

riversident@Acts:27:20 @ When for many days neither sun nor stars appeared and no small tempest lay on us, at last all hope of our being saved was being taken away.

riversident@Acts:27:22 @ But now I beg you to have courage, for there will be no loss of life of any of you, but only of the ship.

riversident@Acts:27:23 @ For this night an angel of the God whose I am and whom I serve stood by me

riversident@Acts:27:24 @ and said, 'Never fear, Paul! You must stand before Caesar. And now God has granted to you all the men who are sailing with you.'

riversident@Acts:27:25 @ So cheer up, men. For I trust in God that it will be as it has been told me.

riversident@Acts:27:29 @ Then fearing that they might run into rocky places, they cast out four anchors from the stern and prayed for day to come.

riversident@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore, I beg you, take some food. For this is for your safety. Not a hair of the head of any one of you is going to perish."

riversident@Acts:27:35 @ Saying this he took a loaf and gave thanks to God before all and broke it and began to eat.

riversident@Acts:27:40 @ So abandoning the anchors they left them in the sea; at the same time loosening the bands of the steering oars and raising the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.

riversident@Acts:27:42 @ The soldiers' advice was to kill the prisoners for fear that some one of them might swim out and escape.

riversident@Acts:28:2 @ The foreign people showed us uncommon kindness. For they kindled a fire and welcomed us all because of the rain that was falling and the cold.

riversident@Acts:28:4 @ When the foreigners saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "Certainly this man is a murderer, whom, although he has escaped the sea, Justice does not permit to live."

riversident@Acts:28:7 @ In the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the Governor of the island, whose name was Publius. He welcomed us and for three days hospitably entertained us.

riversident@Acts:28:10 @ They bestowed many honors on us and when we sailed they put on board supplies for our needs.

riversident@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason I have invited you to see me and talk with me; because it is for the sake of the hope of Israel that I have this chain around me."

riversident@Acts:28:22 @ We think it well to hear from you what your views are; for as to this sect we know that it is everywhere spoken against."

riversident@Acts:28:23 @ They appointed a day for him and many came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying to the kingdom of God, trying to persuade them concerning Jesus from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from early morning until evening.

riversident@Acts:28:27 @ For the heart of this people has grown fat and with their ears they are hard of hearing and their eyes they have shut, so that they may never see with their eyes nor hear with their ears nor understand with their heart and repent, so that I may heal them.'

riversident@Acts:28:28 @ Therefore be it known to you that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles. They will listen."

riversident@Romans:1:2 @ which he foretold through his prophets in Holy Scripture,

riversident@Romans:1:5 @ through whom we obtained grace and apostleship to promote obedience of faith for the sake of his name,

riversident@Romans:1:8 @ First of all I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is spoken of through all the world.

riversident@Romans:1:9 @ For God, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of his Son, is my witness how unceasingly I make mention of you, always in my prayers

riversident@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you that I may impart to you some spiritual gift of grace in order that you may be strengthened,

riversident@Romans:1:15 @ so, for my part, I am eager to tell the good news also to you in Rome.

riversident@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the good news. It is the power of God for salvation to every one who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

riversident@Romans:1:17 @ For a righteousness of God is revealed in it from faith to faith, as it is written, "He who is righteous by faith shall live."

riversident@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all impiety and wickedness of men who hold the truth but practice unrighteousness.

riversident@Romans:1:19 @ Because what may be known of God is manifest within them, for God has manifested it to them.

riversident@Romans:1:20 @ For God's invisible qualities \'97 his everlasting power and deity \'97 are, since the creation of the world, clearly seen, being known from what he has made. So they are without any excuse.

riversident@Romans:1:21 @ For although they knew God they did not glorify him as God and did not give him thanks, but fell into futile speculations and their stupid hearts were darkened.

riversident@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God gave them over, in the lusts of their hearts, to uncleanness, to dishonor their bodies mutually.

riversident@Romans:1:25 @ They changed the truth of God into a lie, and reverenced and paid worship to the creature rather than to the Creator \'97 who is blessed forever, Amen!

riversident@Romans:1:26 @ Therefore God gave them over to disgraceful passions. For their females changed the natural use for one contrary to nature,

riversident@Romans:1:27 @ and their males, leaving the natural use of the female, burned in their lust for one another, males with males practicing indecency and receiving in themselves the deserved penalty of their error.

riversident@Romans:2:1 @ THEREFORE you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge. For in judging another you condemn yourself. For you, the judge, practice the same things.

riversident@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you despise the wealth of his kindness and forbearance and long-suffering, not knowing that the kindness of God is calling you to a change of heart?

riversident@Romans:2:5 @ Are you with a hard and unrepentant heart treasuring for yourself wrath for the day of wrath and for the revelation of the just judgment of God?

riversident@Romans:2:7 @ To those who by constancy in good work seek for glory and honor and immortality he will award life eternal.

riversident@Romans:2:11 @ For God has no partiality.

riversident@Romans:2:13 @ (for it is not the hearers of law who are righteous before God, but the doers of law are pronounced righteous;

riversident@Romans:2:14 @ for when Gentiles who have no law do by nature what the Law enjoins, these, although they have no law, are a law to themselves;

riversident@Romans:2:16 @ on the day when God judges the secrets of men through Jesus Christ, as my good news sets forth.

riversident@Romans:2:20 @ an instructor of the unwise, a teacher of the simple, because you have the form of knowledge and of truth in the Law \'97

riversident@Romans:2:24 @ For "The name of God is reviled among the Gentiles because of you," as it is written.

riversident@Romans:2:26 @ If an uncircumcised man keeps the requirements of the Law, shall not his uncircumcision be credited for circumcision?

riversident@Romans:2:28 @ For it is not he who is one outwardly that is a Jew, nor is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh.

riversident@Romans:3:3 @ For what if some were faithless, will their faithlessness prevent the faithfulness of God?

riversident@Romans:3:18 @ There is no reverence for God before their eyes."

riversident@Romans:3:20 @ Therefore by works of the Law no human being will be pronounced righteous before him. For through the Law comes the knowledge of sin.

riversident@Romans:3:22 @ a righteousness from God through faith in Jesus Christ for all believers. For there is no difference.

riversident@Romans:3:25 @ whom God has set forth as a propitiation by his blood through faith, for the manifestation of his righteousness, because of the passing over of previous sins in the forbearance of God \'97

riversident@Romans:3:26 @ for a manifestation at the present time of his righteousness, that he may himself be righteous and may accept as righteous him who has faith in Jesus.

riversident@Romans:3:28 @ For we reason that a man is pronounced righteous by faith aside from works of law.

riversident@Romans:4:1 @ WHAT then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, experienced?

riversident@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was pronounced righteous because of works, he had something to boast of. But he had nothing before God;

riversident@Romans:4:3 @ for what says the Scripture? "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him for righteousness."

riversident@Romans:4:5 @ but to him who does not work, but believes in him who calls the unrighteous man righteous, his faith is credited for righteousness.

riversident@Romans:4:7 @ "Blessed are they whose lawless acts have been forgiven, and whose sins have been covered over.

riversident@Romans:4:9 @ Does this blessedness come to the circumcision, or also to the uncircumcision? For we say, "Faith was credited to Abraham for righteousness."

riversident@Romans:4:14 @ For if those who are of the Law are heirs, faith is emptied of value and the promise is nullified.

riversident@Romans:4:15 @ For the Law works wrath. But where there is no law, neither is there lawbreaking.

riversident@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore all depends on faith, that it may be of grace, and thus the promise be sure for all his descendants, not only those who are of the Law, but also those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of all of us

riversident@Romans:4:21 @ and was fully confident that what God had promised he was able to perform.

riversident@Romans:4:22 @ Therefore it was credited to him for righteousness.

riversident@Romans:4:23 @ It was not written for his sake only, that it was credited to him,

riversident@Romans:4:24 @ but also for our sake, to whom it will be credited if we believe in him who raised up from the dead Jesus our Lord,

riversident@Romans:5:5 @ and hope does not disappoint, for the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit granted to us.

riversident@Romans:5:6 @ For while we were still without strength Christ, at the due time, died for the unrighteous.

riversident@Romans:5:7 @ Hardly for a righteous man will any one die. For a good man some one perhaps may dare to die.

riversident@Romans:5:8 @ But God shows his own love to us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.

riversident@Romans:5:10 @ For if while enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

riversident@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore as through one man sin entered the world, and through sin death entered, and so death spread to all men, since all sinned \'97

riversident@Romans:5:13 @ for down to the time of the Law sin was in the world, and yet sin is not charged where there is no law;

riversident@Romans:5:15 @ But the gracious gift is not like the fall. For if by the fall of the one the many sinned, much more did the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of the one man Jesus Christ abound to the many.

riversident@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift was not like the sentence that came through one who sinned; for the sentence came from one fall for condemnation, but the free gift was that men should be called righteous in spite of many falls.

riversident@Romans:5:17 @ For if by the fall of one man death reigned through that one, much more those who receive the abounding grace and the free gift of righteousness will reign in life through one, that is, through Jesus Christ.

riversident@Romans:5:19 @ For as by the disobedience of the one man the many were set down as sinners, so by the obedience of the one the many will be set down as righteous.

riversident@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have grown into union with him by the likeness of his death, surely we shall be united with him by the likeness of his resurrection.

riversident@Romans:6:6 @ For we know this, that our old-time humanity was crucified with him, in order that the sinful body might be made powerless, that we might no longer be slaves of sin.

riversident@Romans:6:7 @ For one who has died has been pronounced righteous and free from sin.

riversident@Romans:6:10 @ For the death that he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.

riversident@Romans:6:14 @ For sin shall not be king over you; for you are not under law, but under grace.

riversident@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking humanly on account of the weakness of your human nature. As you did present your members as servants to impurity and to lawlessness to do lawlessness, so now you have presented your members as servants to righteousness for holy living.

riversident@Romans:6:21 @ What fruit did you have then? Fruit of which you are now ashamed; for the end of those things is death.

riversident@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is life eternal in Christ Jesus our Lord.

riversident@Romans:7:1 @ ARE you ignorant, brethren, for I am speaking to those who know law, that the Law rules over a person while he is living?

riversident@Romans:7:2 @ For a married woman is by law bound to her husband while he is living. But if the husband dies, she is freed from the law of her husband.

riversident@Romans:7:3 @ Therefore while her husband is living she is called an adulteress if she becomes another man's. But if her husband dies she is free from the law, so that she is not an adulteress when she becomes another man's.

riversident@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh the sinful passions that arise through the Law were active in our members, so that we bore fruit to death.

riversident@Romans:7:8 @ Sin, taking occasion through the commandment, worked in me every lust. For apart from the Law sin is dead.

riversident@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, taking occasion through the commandment, deceived me and by it killed me.

riversident@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the Law is spiritual; but I am fleshly, sold under sin.

riversident@Romans:7:15 @ For what I am doing I do not understand. For not what I choose is what I practice, but what I hate, this I do.

riversident@Romans:8:1 @ THERE is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.

riversident@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has freed you from the Law of sin and death.

riversident@Romans:8:3 @ For, what was impossible for the Law, because it was weak through the flesh \'97 God, sending his own Son in the form of sinful flesh and for sin, condemned the sin that is in the flesh,

riversident@Romans:8:5 @ For those who are living according to the flesh have their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are living according to the spirit have their minds on the things of the spirit.

riversident@Romans:8:7 @ Therefore fleshly mindedness is hostile to God; for it is not subject to the Law of God, nor can it be.

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

riversident@Romans:8:14 @ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

riversident@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive a spirit of bondage leading again to fear, but you received a spirit of sonship, in which we cry, Abba, Father.

riversident@Romans:8:18 @ For I estimate that the sufferings of this present time amount to nothing in comparison with the glory that is to be revealed for us.

riversident@Romans:8:19 @ For the earnest expectation of the creation is waiting for the revelation of the sons of God.

riversident@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was made subject to folly not willingly, but for the sake of him who subjected it, in hope,

riversident@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that all the creation groans in the pangs of childbirth until now.

riversident@Romans:8:24 @ For we are saved by hope; but hope that is seen is not hope, for what any one sees, why does he hope for?

riversident@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for what we do not see, we patiently wait for it.

riversident@Romans:8:26 @ Thus also the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes for us with sighs beyond words.

riversident@Romans:8:27 @ And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he intercedes for the holy according to the will of God.

riversident@Romans:8:28 @ We know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.

riversident@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom he foreknew he also predetermined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the first-born among many brethren.

riversident@Romans:8:31 @ What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who is against us?

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

riversident@Romans:8:34 @ Who is there to condemn? Christ Jesus died, or rather was raised, and he is on the right hand of God interceding for us.

riversident@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life nor angels nor archangels, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,

riversident@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish myself to be accursed and cast away from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh,

riversident@Romans:9:6 @ Not that God's word has failed. For not all who are of Israel are Israel;

riversident@Romans:9:8 @ That is, not the physical descendants are children, but the children of the promise are counted for descendants.

riversident@Romans:9:9 @ For the wording of the promise was, "At this time next year I will come and Sarah shall have a son."

riversident@Romans:9:15 @ For he says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion."

riversident@Romans:9:17 @ For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I raised you up in order to show my power upon you and to have my name proclaimed in all the earth."

riversident@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me then, "Why does he still find fault? For who has opposed his will?"

riversident@Romans:9:21 @ Has not the potter the right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

riversident@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, choosing to exhibit his wrath and to make known what he can do, bore in long patience the vessels of wrath made for destruction,

riversident@Romans:9:23 @ and in order to make known the richness of his glory upon the vessels of mercy which he had prepared for glory

riversident@Romans:9:28 @ For the Lord will execute his sentence on the earth completely and speedily."

riversident@Romans:10:1 @ BRETHREN, the desire of my heart and my prayer to God for them is for their salvation.

riversident@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not an intelligent one.

riversident@Romans:10:3 @ For, ignorant of God's righteousness and seeking to establish their own, they have not submitted to God's righteousness.

riversident@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness to every believer.

riversident@Romans:10:5 @ For Moses writes that he who does the righteousness of the Law shall live by it.

riversident@Romans:10:10 @ For with the heart a man believes and becomes righteous, and with the mouth he confesses and attains salvation.

riversident@Romans:10:11 @ For the Scripture says, "No one who believes in him will be put to shame."

riversident@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no difference between Jew and Greek. For there is the same Lord of all, rich toward all who call upon him.

riversident@Romans:10:13 @ For "Every one who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

riversident@Romans:10:16 @ But have not all heard the good news? For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?"

riversident@Romans:10:20 @ And Isaiah makes bold to say, "I was found by those who were not seeking me: I became manifest to those who were not inquiring for me."

riversident@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says, "All day long I stretched forth my hands to a people who disobey and answer back."

riversident@Romans:11:1 @ I SAY then, can it be that God has repudiated his people? Never. For I am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

riversident@Romans:11:2 @ God has not repudiated his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says in the story of Elijah, how he prays to God against Israel?

riversident@Romans:11:6 @ But if it is by grace it is no longer because of works, for then grace would be no longer grace.

riversident@Romans:11:8 @ as it is written, "God gave them a stupid spirit, eyes not for seeing and ears not for hearing until this day."

riversident@Romans:11:20 @ Certainly, for lack of faith they were broken off, and you are standing by faith. Do not be proud, but be afraid.

riversident@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

riversident@Romans:11:24 @ For God is able to graft them back. For if you were cut from your natural stock, a wild olive tree, and were grafted, contrary to nature, into a good olive tree, how much more will the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree!

riversident@Romans:11:28 @ According to the good news they are enemies for your sake, but according to the promise they are beloved for their fathers' sake.

riversident@Romans:11:30 @ For as you were once disobedient to God, but now have found mercy through their disobedience,

riversident@Romans:11:32 @ For God has shut up all in unbelief in order that he may have mercy on all.

riversident@Romans:11:34 @ For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who became his counsellor?

riversident@Romans:11:36 @ For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory through the ages! Amen.

riversident@Romans:12:1 @ I BEG you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living and holy sacrifice, pleasing to God \'97 your rational worship.

riversident@Romans:12:2 @ Do not follow the fashions of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your minds so as to recognize what is the good and pleasing and perfect will of God.

riversident@Romans:12:4 @ For as in one body we have many members and the members do not all have the same function,

riversident@Romans:12:14 @ Pray for blessings on your persecutors, blessings, not curses.

riversident@Romans:12:17 @ Repay to no one evil for evil. Aim at what is honorable in the sight of all men.

riversident@Romans:12:19 @ Do not revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God's wrath. For it is written, "Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord."

riversident@Romans:12:20 @ But, "if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head."

riversident@Romans:13:1 @ LET every person be obedient to the superior authorities. For there is no authority except from God and the actual authorities have been appointed by God.

riversident@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good deeds, but to bad. Do you wish not to fear the authority? Do what is good and you will have praise from it.

riversident@Romans:13:4 @ For he is a servant of God to promote your good. But if you are doing evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword to no purpose. For he is God's servant to inflict his wrath on him who practices evil.

riversident@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore we must be obedient, not only because of the punishment but as a matter of conscience.

riversident@Romans:13:6 @ For this reason also you pay tribute. For they are God's officers attending to this very thing.

riversident@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," "Thou shalt not commit murder," "Thou shalt not steal," "Thou shalt not covet," and any other that there may be, are summed up in this: "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."

riversident@Romans:13:10 @ Love works no evil to a neighbor. Love therefore is full obedience to the Law.

riversident@Romans:13:11 @ Live thus because you know this crisis, for it is already time for you to awake from sleep. For now our salvation is nearer than when we became believers.

riversident@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provision for gratifying physical passions.

riversident@Romans:14:3 @ The man who eats is not to despise the one who does not eat, and he who does not eat is not to judge the one who eats. For God has accepted him.

riversident@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you to judge the servant of another? To his own master he stands or falls, and stand he will, for God is able to make him stand.

riversident@Romans:14:6 @ He who regards the day regards it to the Lord and he who eats eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God. And he who does not eat abstains for the Lord and gives thanks to God.

riversident@Romans:14:7 @ For no one of us is living for himself and no one dies for himself.

riversident@Romans:14:8 @ If we live we live for the Lord and if we die we die for the Lord. So whether we live or die we are the Lord's.

riversident@Romans:14:9 @ For to this end Christ died and lived again, in order that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.

riversident@Romans:14:10 @ But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you, why do you treat your brother with contempt? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God.

riversident@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written, "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend to me and every tongue shall confess to God."

riversident@Romans:14:12 @ So then each one of us shall give account for himself to God.

riversident@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us no longer judge one another, but let us rather decide not to put a stumbling block in a brother's way, or anything to trip him up.

riversident@Romans:14:15 @ If because of your food your brother is grieved, you are no longer walking in love. Do not with your food destroy him for whom Christ died.

riversident@Romans:14:17 @ For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

riversident@Romans:14:18 @ For he who thus serves Christ is pleasing to God and esteemed by men.

riversident@Romans:14:19 @ Therefore, let us seek for what makes for peace and our mutual upbuilding.

riversident@Romans:14:20 @ Do not for the sake of food break down the work of God. All things are pure, but anything is evil to the man who eats it with a feeling of doing wrong.

riversident@Romans:14:22 @ The faith that you have, have to yourself before God. Blessed is the man who does not condemn himself for what he allows himself.

riversident@Romans:15:2 @ Each of us should please his neighbor for his good so as to build him up.

riversident@Romans:15:3 @ For Christ did not please himself, but, as it is written, "The reproaches of those who were reproaching thee fell on me."

riversident@Romans:15:7 @ Therefore, welcome one another as Christ welcomed us, to the glory of God.

riversident@Romans:15:8 @ For I say that Christ became a servant of circumcision for the sake of God's truth, in order to confirm the promises given to the fathers

riversident@Romans:15:9 @ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy, as it is written, "For this will I confess thee among the Gentiles and sing to thy name."

riversident@Romans:15:17 @ I do boast in Christ Jesus of my work for God.

riversident@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not venture to speak except of what Christ has done through me to promote obedience of Gentiles, by word and deed,

riversident@Romans:15:23 @ But now having no more territory in these regions and having for many years had a strong desire to come to you

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

riversident@Romans:15:27 @ They have been pleased to do this and indeed they are indebted to them. For if the Gentiles have shared their things of the spirit, they owe them sacred service in things of the body.

riversident@Romans:15:30 @ I beg you, brethren, for the sake of our Lord Jesus and the love of the Spirit to join me in wrestling in prayer to God on my behalf,

riversident@Romans:16:2 @ that you may receive her in the Lord in a way worthy of the holy, and help her in any matter in which she may need you. For she has been a provider for many, myself included.

riversident@Romans:16:4 @ who for my life risked their own necks, to whom not I alone give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.

riversident@Romans:16:5 @ Give my greetings also to the church in their house. Give my greetings to Epaenetus my beloved, who is the first-fruit of Asia for Christ.

riversident@Romans:16:6 @ Give my greetings to Mary, who has worked hard for you.

riversident@Romans:16:7 @ Give my greetings to Andronicus and Junias, men of my race and my companions in prison, who are eminent among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

riversident@Romans:16:17 @ I beg you, brethren, to keep your eye on those who are making divisions and occasions for sin contrary to the teaching which you have learned, and to shun them.

riversident@Romans:16:18 @ For such persons are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own stomachs, and by their smooth and pleasing talk they mislead the hearts of the innocent.

riversident@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience has come to the knowledge of all men. Therefore I rejoice over you, but I wish you to be wise regarding what is good, and simple in regard to what is evil.

riversident@Romans:16:27 @ to God, the only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for the ages of the ages!

riversident@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I am always thanking God for you because of the grace of God given to you in Christ Jesus,

riversident@1Corinthians:1:7 @ and so that you are not lacking in any gift while waiting for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed.

riversident@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been told me regarding you, brethren, by Chloe's people, that there are dissensions among you.

riversident@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

riversident@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to proclaim the good news \'97 not in wisdom of words, that the cross of Christ might not be emptied of meaning.

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

riversident@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and I will bring to nought the prudence of the prudent."

riversident@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For when in the wisdom of God the world by its wisdom did not come to know God, God was pleased to save through the foolishness of our proclamation those who believe.

riversident@1Corinthians:1:22 @ Jews ask for signs and Greeks seek for wisdom,

riversident@1Corinthians:1:25 @ For God's foolishness is wiser than men and God's weakness is stronger than men.

riversident@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I determined to know nothing among you but Jesus Christ \'97 and him crucified.

riversident@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak a wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God predestined before the world began for our glory.

riversident@1Corinthians:2:8 @ None of the rulers of this world knew it, for if they had known it they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

riversident@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But as it is written, "What eye has not seen and what ear has not heard and what has not entered human mind, God has prepared for those who love him."

riversident@1Corinthians:2:10 @ To us God has revealed this by his Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.

riversident@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For who of men knows what pertains to a man except the spirit of the man which is in him. Just so no one knows what pertains to God except the Spirit of God.

riversident@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the animal man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, nor can he know them because they are spiritually understood.

riversident@1Corinthians:2:16 @ For "Who has known the mind of the Lord? Who will teach him?" But we have the mind of Christ.

riversident@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I fed you with milk, not solid food. For you were not able to take it. Nor are you yet able, for you are still fleshly.

riversident@1Corinthians:3:3 @ For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly and living in man's way?

riversident@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For when one says, "I belong to Paul," and another, "I belong to Apollos," are you not men?

riversident@1Corinthians:3:11 @ For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.

riversident@1Corinthians:3:13 @ every one's work will become manifest. For the day will show it, because it will be revealed in fire and the fire will test each one's work, of what quality it is.

riversident@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If any one mars the temple of God, God will mar him, for the temple of God is holy, and you are the temple.

riversident@1Corinthians:3:19 @ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God's sight. For it is written, "He catches the wise in their own craftiness,"

riversident@1Corinthians:3:21 @ Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours \'97

riversident@1Corinthians:4:4 @ For I am not conscious of any wrong, but I am not proved by that to be faultless. The Lord is my judge.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:5 @ So do not judge anything before the time, before the Lord comes. He will throw light on the hidden things of darkness and will make manifest the purposes of hearts. Then each one will have his praise from God.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:6 @ All this, brethren, I have applied to myself and Apollos for your sake, that you may learn the maxim, "Nothing beyond what is written," and may not be puffed up in partisanship for one against the other.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who gives you superiority? What have you that you did not receive? Why are you boasting as if you had not received it?

riversident@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For it seems to me that God has set us apostles out last of all as men doomed to death, that we may be a spectacle to the world and to angels and to men.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you have glory, but we are despised.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For if you have ten thousand teachers in Christ, still you have not many fathers. For I was your father in Christ Jesus through the good news.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this very purpose I have sent to you Timothy, who is my loved and faithful child in the Lord. He will remind you of my ways in Christ \'97 how I teach everywhere in every church.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:20 @ For the kingdom of God is not in talk, but in power.

riversident@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For I, absent in body, but present in spirit, have already as if I were present judged the man who has acted thus.

riversident@1Corinthians:5:5 @ I decided to deliver over such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.

riversident@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Cleanse out the old yeast that you may be new dough, free from yeast, as indeed you are. For Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed.

riversident@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what business of mine is it to judge outsiders? Is it not for you to judge those inside?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:1 @ DOES any one of you, if he has a grievance against another, dare to bring the case before the unrighteous and not before the holy?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the holy are going to judge the world? If the world is to be judged by you, are you unfit for the most trivial cases?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have affairs of this life, do you ask men who in the view of the church count for nothing to sit as judges?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:6 @ but brother goes to law with brother and that before unbelievers?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:12 @ All things are lawful for me, but not everything is beneficial. All things are lawful, but I will not be overpowered by anything.

riversident@1Corinthians:6:13 @ Food of all kinds is for the stomach and the stomach for foods. But God will end the function of one and the other. The body is not for unchastity, but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body.

riversident@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that he who unites himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For God says, "The two shall become one flesh."

riversident@1Corinthians:6:20 @ For you were bought with a price. Glorify God then in your bodies.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:1 @ WITH reference to the matters you wrote of: It is an excellent thing for a man not to touch a woman.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not deprive one another, unless by agreement for a time, that you may have freedom for prayer, and again come together. You must not let Satan tempt you through your lack of self-control.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:8 @ I say to the unmarried and the widows, it is excellent for them to remain as I do.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband has been made holy by the wife and the unbelieving wife has been made holy by the husband. Otherwise your children would be impure, but now they are holy.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:16 @ For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?

riversident@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For the slave who has been called in the Lord is the Lord's freedman. Just so the free man, when called, is the slave of Christ.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I think then that this is an excellent thing on account of the present distress \'97 that it is an excellent thing for a person to be unmarried.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:29 @ But this I say, brethren: The time is shortened. For what remains let those who have wives be as if they had none,

riversident@1Corinthians:7:31 @ and those who use the world as if not overusing it. For the present order of this world is passing away.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:35 @ This I say for your benefit, not to throw a noose over you, but to promote decorum and constant devotion to the Lord without distraction.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:36 @ If any one thinks that he is acting unbecomingly toward his virgin, if she is ripe for marriage and there is need, let him do what he will. He does not sin. Let them marry.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:5 @ And though there are so-called gods in heaven and on earth, for there are gods many and lords many,

riversident@1Corinthians:8:6 @ still to us there is one God the Father, of whom are all things and we for him, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and we through him.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not bring us near to God, for neither do we lose by not eating nor gain by eating.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any one sees you who have knowledge reclining at table in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of that weak one be emboldened to eat things that have been sacrificed to idols?

riversident@1Corinthians:8:11 @ Thus the weak man is ruined by your knowledge \'97 the brother for whom Christ died.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore if food makes my brother stumble I will not eat meat while the world stands, for fear of making my brother stumble.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If to others I am not an apostle, certainly I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For in the Law of Moses it is written, "You shall not muzzle an ox when he is treading out grain." Is God thinking of the oxen?

riversident@1Corinthians:9:10 @ or does he say this wholly for our sakes? For our sakes; for it was written because the plowman ought to plow in hope and the thresher ought to thresh in hope of having a share.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we sowed for you things of the spirit, is it a great matter if we reap your things of the flesh?

riversident@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these rights and I am not writing this in order that it may be done in my case. For it would be better for me to die \'97 No one shall make my boast an empty one!

riversident@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For although I tell the good news I have nothing to boast of. For a necessity is laid upon me. Alas for me if I do not tell the good news!

riversident@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For though I am free from all I have enslaved myself to all that I may gain the more.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:23 @ I do all things for the sake of the good news that I may become a partner with it.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Every one who contends in the games practices self-restraint in all things. They do it to win a fading crown, but we for an unfading one.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:5 @ But with the most of them God was not well pleased. For they were strewn in the desert.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:6 @ These things happened as warnings for us, that we may not be eager for evil things as they were eager.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:11 @ These things happened to those people as warnings and they were written for the instruction of us to whom the closing events of the ages have come.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:14 @ Therefore, my beloved, shun idolatry.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I speak as to thoughtful men. Judge for yourselves what I am saying.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:17 @ Because there is one bread we though many are one body; for we all partake of the one bread.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:26 @ For "the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof."

riversident@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any one of the unbelievers invites you and you wish to go, eat whatever is set before you, raising no questions of conscience.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if any one says to you, "This is meat that has been sacrificed," do not eat, for the sake of him who mentioned it and for conscience' sake \'97

riversident@1Corinthians:10:29 @ conscience, I say, not yours, but the other man's. For why is my liberty judged by the conscience of another?

riversident@1Corinthians:10:30 @ If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I denounced for that for which I give thanks?

riversident@1Corinthians:10:31 @ Therefore, if you eat or if you drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman praying or prophesying bareheaded dishonors her head. For it is one and the same as if she had her head shaved.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, then let her cut off her hair. But if it is a shame to a woman to cut off her hair or to shave, let her veil herself.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man has no need to cover his head since he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of man.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:8 @ For man was not from woman, but woman from man,

riversident@1Corinthians:11:9 @ for man was not formed for woman, but woman for man.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:10 @ Therefore, the woman ought to have a badge of authority on her head because of the angels.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For as woman is from man so is man through woman, but all things from God.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Decide for yourselves: is it becoming for a woman to pray to God unveiled?

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

riversident@1Corinthians:11:17 @ In giving the following directions I do not praise you, because you do not assemble for the better, but for the worse.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, in the first place, I hear that when you assemble as a church there are parties among you, and to some extent I believe it.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must be parties among you in order that it may become plain who are worthy of approval.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When, therefore, you assemble it is not possible to eat the Lord's supper.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating each one tries to get his own supper first and one is hungry and another is drunken.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:22 @ Have you not homes to eat and drink in? Or do you mean to show contempt for the church of God and put to shame those who have no homes? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? For this I do not praise you.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord that which I passed on to you that the Lord Jesus, on the night in which he was betrayed, took bread,

riversident@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup you proclaim the Lord's death, until he comes.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For he who eats and drinks eats and drinks condemnation to himself, if he does not honor the Lord's body.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:30 @ For this reason many are weak and sickly among you and a number are asleep.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:33 @ So then, my brethren, when you assemble to eat, wait for one another.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:2 @ For you know that when you were Gentiles you were led away after the dumb idols just as might happen.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I inform you that no one speaking in the Spirit of God says, "Jesus is accursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except in the Holy Spirit.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:7 @ To each one is given some manifestation of the Spirit for what is profitable.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so also is Christ.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and were all made to drink of one Spirit.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body is not one member, but many.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot says, "Because I am not a hand I am not of the body," it is not for that reason not of the body.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear says, "Because I am not an eye I am not of the body," it is not for that reason not of the body.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there may be no discord in the body, but that the members may have a common concern for one another.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:31 @ Seek earnestly for the greater gifts; and yet I will show you a way that surpasses all.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:9 @ For we know in part and we prophesy in part,

riversident@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. Since I have become a man, I have no use for childish things.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For as yet we are looking at puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then face to face. As yet I know in part, but then I shall know fully, as I have been fully known.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:1 @ SEEK love earnestly, be eager for spiritual gifts, but most to prophesy.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks with a tongue speaks not to men, but to God. For no one understands, and he speaks mysteries in the Spirit.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks to men what will build up, encourage, and comfort.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:8 @ If the trumpet gives a dubious sound, who will prepare himself for battle?

riversident@1Corinthians:14:9 @ And so you, if you do not give by the tongue words easy to understand, how will it be known what is said? For you will be talking into the air.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:12 @ And so you, since you are eager for spiritual gifts, seek to abound in what will build up the church.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore let him who speaks with a tongue pray to interpret.

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

riversident@1Corinthians:14:16 @ If you thank God with the spirit, how shall he who fills the place of the ordinary man say Amen to your thanksgiving? For he does not know what you are saying.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So then tongues are for a sign not to believers, but to unbelievers, and prophecy is not for unbelievers, but for believers.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:23 @ If therefore the whole church assembles and all speak with tongues and ordinary men or unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are insane?

riversident@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What then, brethren? When you assemble each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for the upbuilding of character.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you can all prophesy one by one so that all may learn and all be encouraged.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not a God of confusion, but of peace. As in all the churches of the holy,

riversident@1Corinthians:14:34 @ let the women be silent in your assemblies. For it is not allowed to them to speak; but let them be in subjection as also the Law says.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:35 @ If they wish to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home. For it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in church.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For among the first things I passed on to you what I had received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

riversident@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles and am not fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since by a man came death, by a man also came resurrection of the dead.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:22 @ For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:25 @ For he must be king until he "puts all his enemies under his feet."

riversident@1Corinthians:15:27 @ For "he subjected all things under his feet." But when it says, "all things have been subjected," it is plain that it means all things except God who subjected all things to him.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Then what shall they do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead do not rise at all, why are they then baptized for them?

riversident@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If, humanly speaking, I fought wild beasts at Ephesus, what is my gain? If the dead do not rise, "let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die."

riversident@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Return to soberness and cease to sin, for some are ignorant of God. I say it to your shame.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:41 @ There is one glory of the sun and another glory of the moon and another glory of the stars. For star differs from star in glory.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:51 @ I am telling you a mystery. We shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be transformed,

riversident@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet-call. For the trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be transformed.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this perishable must clothe itself with imperishability, and this mortal must clothe itself with immortality.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:1 @ REGARDING the collection for the holy, as I arranged for the churches of Galatia, you must do the same.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:4 @ And if it seems best for me to go, they shall go with me.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:5 @ I shall come to you alter I pass through Macedonia. For I shall pass through Macedonia

riversident@1Corinthians:16:6 @ and perhaps I shall make some stay with you or pass the winter with you, so that you may send me forward wherever I may be going.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:7 @ I do not wish to see you now merely in passing, for I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:9 @ for a great and effective door has been opened to me, and there are many opponents.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:10 @ If Timothy comes, see to it that he becomes free from fear in his relations to you. For he is doing the Lord's work, just as I am.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:11 @ So let no one think him of no account. Send him forward in peace on his journey to me, for I am expecting him with the brethren.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I rejoice in the arrival of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they made up for my lack of you.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:18 @ For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Appreciate such men.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:6 @ But if we are in distress, it is for your encouragement and salvation. If we are encouraged, it is for your encouragement which is effective in the endurance of the same sufferings that we suffer.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, regarding the distress that came on us in Asia \'97 that we were exceedingly weighed down, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:11 @ while you help by your prayers for us, so that from many persons thanksgiving may arise for the gift granted to us through the prayers of many for us.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For this is what we boast of, the witness of our conscience that in holiness, and sincerity before God, not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have lived in the world and especially toward you.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we are not writing to you anything but what you read and acknowledge and I hope you will acknowledge to the end,

riversident@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Christ Jesus, who was proclaimed among you by us \'97 myself and Silvanus and Timothy \'97 was not yes and no, but in him was yes.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God, however many, have their yes in him. Therefore also through him is the Amen to the glory of God through us.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we are lords over your faith, but fellow workers sharing your joy, for you are standing firm in the faith.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I grieve you, who is there to cheer me except those who are grieved by me?

riversident@2Corinthians:2:3 @ I am writing this very thing so that I may not come and have grief from those who ought to make me glad, for I am confident in regard to all of you that my joy is yours.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For out of great distress and pain of heart I am writing with many tears, not that you may be grieved, but that you may know the love that I have beyond measure for you.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:6 @ Sufficient for such a one is this punishment by the majority,

riversident@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so that on the contrary you should rather forgive him and encourage him, that such a one may not be swallowed up in excessive grief.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:8 @ Therefore I beg you to assure him of your love.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:9 @ Because for this purpose I am writing, that I may know your tested character, whether you are obedient in everything.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:10 @ To whomever you forgive anything I also forgive it, and what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, it was for your sake in the sight of Christ,

riversident@2Corinthians:2:11 @ that Satan may not take advantage of us, for we are not ignorant of his purposes.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:12 @ When I came to Troas for the good news of Christ and a door had been opened for me in the Lord,

riversident@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are for God a sweet odor of Christ \'97 in the saved and in the perishing.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:16 @ To the latter an odor from death to death, to the former an odor from life to life. And who is competent for this?

riversident@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not, like the most, adulterating the message of God for gain, but in sincerity, as from God, in the presence of God, we speak in Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who has fitted us to be servants of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the spirit. For the letter kills, but the spirit gives life.

riversident@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if the service that brought condemnation was glory, much more will the service that brings righteousness surpass in glory.

riversident@2Corinthians:3:10 @ For what was made so glorious is in a way no longer glorious compared with the glory that surpasses it.

riversident@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if what was to be ended came in glory, much more glorious must be that which is enduring.

riversident@2Corinthians:3:14 @ but their thinking was dulled. For to this day the same veil remains unlifted when the old covenant is read; because it is done away only in Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:4:1 @ THEREFORE, having this service through God's mercy, we are not downhearted,

riversident@2Corinthians:4:5 @ For we are not proclaiming ourselves but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.

riversident@2Corinthians:4:9 @ persecuted, but not forsaken, cast down, but not destroyed,

riversident@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we, though living, are always delivered up to death for Jesus' sake, that also the life of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

riversident@2Corinthians:4:13 @ Having the same spirit of faith, as it is written, "I believed, therefore I spoke," we too believe and therefore speak,

riversident@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For all things are for your sake, that grace abounding through many may overflow in thanksgiving to the glory of God.

riversident@2Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore we are not downhearted, but even if our outward man is wasting away, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.

riversident@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For our momentary and light distress is working out for us a far surpassing and eternal weight of glory

riversident@2Corinthians:4:18 @ while we contemplate not the things that are seen, but the things unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things unseen are eternal.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:1 @ FOR we know that if this tent, our earthly home, is thrown down, we have a building of God, a home not made by hands, eternal in the heavens.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For in this we sigh in earnest desire to put on our dwelling that comes from heaven,

riversident@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For while we are in this tent we sigh being burdened, not that we wish to be unclothed, but to put on the other, that what is mortal may be swallowed up in life.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:5 @ He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, and he has given to us the pledge of the Spirit.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:6 @ So being always of good courage and knowing that while living at home in the body we are living in a foreign land away from the Lord \'97

riversident@2Corinthians:5:7 @ for we walk by faith, not by sight \'97

riversident@2Corinthians:5:8 @ I say we are of good courage and wish rather to live in the land foreign to the body and be at home with the Lord.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:9 @ Therefore also we are ambitious to be pleasing to him, whether at home with him or in this foreign land.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear as we truly are before the judgment seat of Christ, that each may receive the award for what he has done with his body, according to his actions, whether good or bad.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Knowing, therefore, the fear of the Lord, we are persuading men. What we are is plain to God, and I hope that it is also plain to your consciences.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We are not recommending ourselves again to you, but giving occasion to you for boasting on our behalf, that you may have it to use against those who boast of appearances and not of heart.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we were out of our minds it was for God, and if we are sane it is for you.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ impels us, convinced of this, that if one died for all, then all died,

riversident@2Corinthians:5:15 @ and he died for all that the living may no longer live for themselves, but for him who died for them and was raised again.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:20 @ So we are ambassadors for Christ, as if God were appealing to you through us. We pray you on Christ's behalf to be reconciled to God.

riversident@2Corinthians:5:21 @ Him who knew no sin God made sin for our sake that we might become the righteousness of God in him.

riversident@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For he says, "At a favorable time I heard you and on a day of salvation I helped you." Now is a particularly favorable time, now is a day of salvation.

riversident@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We give no occasion for stumbling to any one that our service may not be blamed,

riversident@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be yoked up, like unmatched animals, with unbelievers. For what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness,

riversident@2Corinthians:6:16 @ What agreement has the Temple of God with idols? For we are the Temple of the living God, as God said, "I will dwell in them and walk among them, and I will be their God and they shall be my people.

riversident@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore come out from the midst of them and be separate, says the Lord, and do not touch an unclean thing, and I will receive you

riversident@2Corinthians:7:1 @ HAVING then these promises, beloved, let us purify ourselves from every defilement of flesh or spirit, in reverence for God making our holiness complete.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Make room for us in your hearts. We have wronged no one; we have injured no one; we have taken advantage of no one.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I am not saying this to condemn you, for I have already said that you have such a place in our hearts that we are ready to die with you or to live with you.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For since we came to Macedonia our flesh has had no rest, but we have been distressed in every way, conflicts without, fears within.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not by his coming only, but also by the encouragement by which he was encouraged about you. He told us of your longing for me, your lamentation, your zeal in my behalf, so that I rejoice the more.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For if I grieved you in my letter I do not regret it, though I did regret it, seeing that that letter grieved you even for a time,

riversident@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For such grief as God approves works a change of heart leading to salvation and is never to be regretted. But the grief of the world results in death.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:11 @ Notice this very grieving as God approves, how great earnestness resulted from it in your case, what effort to defend yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what just punishment! In everything you showed yourselves blameless in the matter.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, I did it not for the sake of him who did the wrong, nor for the sake of him who suffered wrong, but that your earnestness for us might be made plain to you before God.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:14 @ for if I have made any boast regarding you I have not been put to shame, but as we spoke everything in truth to you so our boasting over Titus turned out the truth.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For according to their ability, I bear witness, and beyond their ability, of their own accord,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:4 @ with great urgency they begged of us the favor of fellowship in the service for the holy,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:6 @ Therefore we encouraged Titus that as he had begun so he should complete this grace among you.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich yet for your sake he became poor, that you by his poverty might become rich.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:10 @ In this I give my opinion, for this is advantageous for you, since a year ago you were first to begin not only the doing but the wanting to do anything.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there is first the readiness, a gift is acceptable according to what a man has, not according to what he has not.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he welcomed our appeal, but being unusually interested comes to you of his own choice.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:18 @ With him we are sending the brother whose praise for service to the good news has spread through all the churches,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:20 @ We are taking care that no one shall blame us for our administration of this bountiful fund,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:21 @ for we are providing arrangements honorable, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If any one asks about Titus, he is my intimate friend and fellow worker for you. If it is our brethren, they are the messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:1 @ REGARDING the service to the holy, it is superfluous for me to write to you.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:2 @ For I know your readiness and I am boasting about you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago, and your zeal has stimulated the most of them.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I think it necessary to urge the brethren to go on in advance to you and prepare before-hand your promised gift, that it may be ready as a gift and not as if extorted.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:7 @ Let each give as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly nor of necessity, for God loves a cheerful giver.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:8 @ God is able to make every blessing abound for you so that having in everything always all that you need, you may abound in every good work,

riversident@2Corinthians:9:9 @ as it is written, "He scattered, he gave to the poor, his righteousness endures forever."

riversident@2Corinthians:9:10 @ He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and make abundant your seed and will increase the fruits of your righteousness.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the performance of this sacred service not only supplies the needs of the holy, but also overflows to God in many thanksgivings.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:13 @ By the proof afforded by this service men are led to glorify God for your fidelity to your profession of faith in the good news of Christ, and for the liberality of your contributions toward them and toward all.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:14 @ In their prayers in your behalf they pour out their longing love for you because of the surpassing grace of God that is upon you.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:15 @ Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift!

riversident@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For although living in the flesh we do not carry on our warfare according to the flesh,

riversident@2Corinthians:10:4 @ for the weapons of our warfare are not weapons of the flesh, but powerful under God for the destruction of fortresses.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Look at what is right before your eyes. If any one is confident that he belongs to Christ, let him again consider this regarding himself, that just as he belongs to Christ so also do we.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For if I boast somewhat excessively of our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for pulling you down, I shall not be ashamed.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not stretching ourselves, as if we did not reach to you, for we were the first to reach you with the good news of Christ.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous over you with the jealousy of God, for I betrothed you to one husband to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if some newcomer proclaims another Jesus whom we did not proclaim, or if you receive a different kind of spirit which you did not receive, or a different good news which you did not welcome, you bear with him finely.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches by taking wages for serving you,

riversident@2Corinthians:11:9 @ and when I was with you and in need I was not a burden to any one, for the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied my need. In every way I kept myself from being a burden to you, and shall keep myself so.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:14 @ And no wonder, for Satan himself disguises himself as an angel of light.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:19 @ for you who are wise bear pleasantly with the foolish.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:24 @ From Jews five times I received forty stripes less one,

riversident@2Corinthians:11:28 @ Aside, from other things there is that which weighs on me daily, anxiety for all the churches.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of the Lord Jesus knows, he who is blessed forever, that I am not lying.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:4 @ that he was caught up into Paradise and heard unspeakable words which it is not lawful for man to speak.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Even if I choose to boast I shall not be foolish, for I shall speak the truth. But I guard myself that no one may think of me beyond what he sees me to be, or hears from me,

riversident@2Corinthians:12:7 @ and because of the surpassing nature of the revelations. For this reason, that I should not be puffed up, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, an angel of Satan, to torment me, so that I should not be puffed up.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I rejoice in weaknesses, in rough treatment, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become foolish; you made me. For I ought to have been recommended by you. For in nothing have I been inferior to the most eminent apostles, even though I am nothing.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:12 @ The signs of an apostle were performed among you in all patience by miracles and wonders and deeds of power.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:13 @ What is there in which you were made inferior to the rest of the churches except that I was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Now this third time I am ready to come to you, and I shall not be a burden to you. For I am not seeking yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up money for the parents, but the parents for the children.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:15 @ And I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you too much, am I loved the less?

riversident@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Are you thinking all this while that we are defending ourselves to you? We are speaking before God in Christ. All this, beloved, is to build you up.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I am afraid that when I come I shall not find you such as I wish, and I myself may not be found by you such as you wish. I am afraid that there may be strife, jealousy, anger, rivalry, slanders, whisperings, conceit, disorders.

riversident@2Corinthians:13:2 @ Those who have been long sinning and all the rest I have forewarned and now forewarn, when I was present with you the second time and now when absent, that if I come again I shall not spare;

riversident@2Corinthians:13:4 @ He was crucified in weakness, but he is living by the power of God. And we are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God for you.

riversident@2Corinthians:13:8 @ For we cannot do anything against the truth; our power is for the truth.

riversident@2Corinthians:13:9 @ We rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. This we are praying for, your all-round character.

riversident@2Corinthians:13:10 @ For this reason I am writing this while absent, so that when present I may not act with severity in the use of the authority which the Lord gave me for building you up, not for pulling you down.

riversident@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present wicked world according to the will of our God and Father!

riversident@Galatians:1:9 @ As I said before, I say now again, if any one brings you good news different from what you have received, let him be accursed!

riversident@Galatians:1:11 @ For I assure you, brethren, that the good news which I brought is not of man's devising.

riversident@Galatians:1:12 @ For neither did I receive it from man nor was I taught it through man, but through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

riversident@Galatians:1:13 @ You have heard of my former life in Judaism, that I furiously persecuted the church of God and made havoc of it,

riversident@Galatians:1:14 @ and I went further in Judaism than many of my own age and race, being intensely zealous for the traditions of my forefathers.

riversident@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and came back to Damascus.

riversident@Galatians:1:20 @ In what I am writing to you, before God I am not lying.

riversident@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up by revelation, and I stated to them the good news which I proclaim among the Gentiles. But I did this privately before those who were most esteemed, that I might not be running, or have run, to no Purpose.

riversident@Galatians:2:5 @ But we did not yield in subjection to them even for an hour, that the truth of the good news might continue with you.

riversident@Galatians:2:7 @ But, on the contrary, seeing that I was entrusted with the good news for the uncircumcision as Peter was for the circumcision,

riversident@Galatians:2:8 @ for he who had worked in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcision had worked in me for the Gentiles,

riversident@Galatians:2:12 @ For before certain persons came from James, he was eating with the Gentiles. But when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

riversident@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not walking straight according to the truth of the good news, I said to Cephas before them all, "If you who are a Jew are living like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?"

riversident@Galatians:2:16 @ knowing that a man is not declared righteous because of works of law, but through faith in Christ Jesus, we also have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be declared righteous because of faith in Christ, and not because of works of law, for because of works of law no human being will be declared righteous.

riversident@Galatians:2:18 @ For if I am building up again what I pulled down, I show myself as a transgressor.

riversident@Galatians:2:19 @ For I through law died to law that I might live to God.

riversident@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ. I am living, yet no longer I, but Christ is living in me. The life that I am now living in flesh I am living by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

riversident@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not make nothing of the grace of God, for if righteousness is through law, then Christ died for nothing.

riversident@Galatians:3:1 @ O THOUGHTLESS Galatians, who has bewitched you before whose eyes Jesus Christ was pictured crucified?

riversident@Galatians:3:6 @ just as Abraham had faith in God and it was credited to him for righteousness?

riversident@Galatians:3:8 @ For the Scripture, foreseeing that God would declare the Gentiles righteous because of faith, announced the good news in advance to Abraham, "In you all the Gentiles will be blessed."

riversident@Galatians:3:10 @ For all who are of the works of law are under a curse, for it is written, "Cursed is every one who does not abide by all the precepts of the book of the Law and do them."

riversident@Galatians:3:11 @ But that by law no one is declared righteous before God is plain, because, "He who is righteous by faith shall live."

riversident@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse for our sake, for it is written, "Cursed is every one who hangs on a tree,"

riversident@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance is by law, it is no longer by promise. But God granted it to Abraham by promise.

riversident@Galatians:3:21 @ Is the Law then against the promises of God? Never! For if a law had been given which could give life, then really righteousness would have come by law.

riversident@Galatians:3:23 @ Before faith came we were guarded under law, shut up waiting for the faith that was to be revealed.

riversident@Galatians:3:28 @ There cannot be Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female: for you all are one in Christ Jesus.

riversident@Galatians:4:4 @ but, when the fullness of time came, God sent forth his Son born of a woman, born under the Law,

riversident@Galatians:4:12 @ Become like me, brethren, I beg of you, for I became like you. You have not wronged me in anything.

riversident@Galatians:4:15 @ Where now is the blessing you pronounced on me? For I bear you witness that if it had been possible you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me.

riversident@Galatians:4:19 @ my children, for whom I again am suffering birth pangs until Christ is formed in you.

riversident@Galatians:4:20 @ Would that I could be present with you now and could change my tone, for I am at a loss about you.

riversident@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one born of the slave girl and one born of the free wife.

riversident@Galatians:4:24 @ This is an allegory. For these women are the two covenants, one from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery. This is Hagar.

riversident@Galatians:4:25 @ Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia. She represents the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery along with her children.

riversident@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, "Rejoice, O barren one, you who do not bear! Break forth and shout, you who feel no birth pangs! For many are the children of the desolate \'97 more than those of her who has a husband."

riversident@Galatians:4:30 @ But what says the Scripture? "Cast out the slave girl and her son. For the son of the slave girl shall not inherit along with the son of the free wife."

riversident@Galatians:4:31 @ Therefore, brethren, we are not children of a slave girl, but of the free wife.

riversident@Galatians:5:1 @ STAND firm, therefore, in the freedom with which Christ set us free, and do not wear any yoke of slavery.

riversident@Galatians:5:4 @ You have put an end to Christ's work for you, you who are declared righteous by law; you have fallen away from grace.

riversident@Galatians:5:5 @ For we in the Spirit because of faith are waiting for the hope of righteousness.

riversident@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither has circumcision any value nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.

riversident@Galatians:5:13 @ For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not let your freedom be an opportunity for the flesh, but in love be servants to one another.

riversident@Galatians:5:14 @ For the whole Law is summed up in one word: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

riversident@Galatians:5:17 @ For the flesh has passions contrary to the Spirit and the Spirit contrary to the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, so that you may not do whatever you wish.

riversident@Galatians:5:21 @ envyings, drinking bouts, revelries, and the like. Of these I tell you beforehand, as I have already told you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

riversident@Galatians:6:1 @ BRETHREN, if a man is surprised in some sin, you who are spiritual are to restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, each looking out for himself to avoid being tempted.

riversident@Galatians:6:4 @ Let each one test his own work and then he will have his reason for boasting in himself alone and not in another.

riversident@Galatians:6:5 @ For each must bear his own load.

riversident@Galatians:6:8 @ For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap decay; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap life eternal.

riversident@Galatians:6:9 @ Let us not grow discouraged in doing what is noble, for in due time we shall reap if we do not grow faint.

riversident@Galatians:6:10 @ So then as we have opportunity let us work for the good of all men, and especially of those who belong to the household of the faith.

riversident@Galatians:6:12 @ All who wish to make a fair show in the flesh are trying to compel you to receive circumcision, but only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

riversident@Galatians:6:13 @ For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the Law, but they wish you to be circumcised in order to boast in your flesh.

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

riversident@Galatians:6:17 @ For the future let no one trouble me; for I bear on my body the brands of Jesus.

riversident@Ephesians:1:4 @ even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world to be holy and spotless before him in love.

riversident@Ephesians:1:7 @ in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, according to the wealth of his loving kindness

riversident@Ephesians:1:10 @ for the government of the fullness of the ages, to bring to unity all things in Christ, both things in the heavens and things on the earth.

riversident@Ephesians:1:15 @ For this reason I also, since hearing of your faith in Jesus and your love to all the saints,

riversident@Ephesians:1:16 @ never cease giving thanks for you when I mention you in my prayers,

riversident@Ephesians:1:20 @ which he put forth in Christ when he raised him from the dead and made him sit at his own right hand in the heavenly heights,

riversident@Ephesians:1:22 @ He put all things under his feet and placed him as head over all for the church,

riversident@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

riversident@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are his work, formed in Christ Jesus for good works in which God had prepared beforehand to have us live.

riversident@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that once you were Gentiles in the flesh and were called uncircumcision by the so-called circumcision in the flesh, made by hands,

riversident@Ephesians:2:14 @ For he is our peace. He has made both Jew and Gentile one and has broken down the dividing wall, the enmity.

riversident@Ephesians:2:15 @ In his own flesh he has ended the force of the law of commandments in ordinances in order to make the two, in himself, into one new man, thus making peace,

riversident@Ephesians:2:18 @ For through him we, both Jews and Gentiles, have access through one Spirit to the Father.

riversident@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are being built for a dwelling of God in the Spirit.

riversident@Ephesians:3:1 @ FOR this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles, \'97

riversident@Ephesians:3:3 @ that by revelation the mystery has been disclosed to me, as I wrote before briefly,

riversident@Ephesians:3:9 @ and to show what is the working of the mystery which has been hidden for ages in God, who created all things

riversident@Ephesians:3:13 @ So I beg you not to lose heart because of the distresses that come on me for your sake. They are a high honor to you.

riversident@Ephesians:3:14 @ For this reason I bow my knees to the Father

riversident@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore it says, "He ascended on high; he led away captives; he gave gifts to men."

riversident@Ephesians:4:12 @ for the equipment of the saints, for the work of service, for building up the body of Christ,

riversident@Ephesians:4:19 @ Lost to any sense of shame they have abandoned themselves to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness.

riversident@Ephesians:4:22 @ that you should put away the old man who belonged to your former way of life and was perishing in deluding passions,

riversident@Ephesians:4:24 @ and put on the new man formed as God approves in the righteousness and holiness of truth.

riversident@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore put aside lying and speak truth every one to his neighbor, for we are members one of another.

riversident@Ephesians:4:27 @ neither give place for the Devil.

riversident@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no vile word come out of your mouth, but, if anything, a good word for needed upbuilding of character to give grace to those who hear.

riversident@Ephesians:4:30 @ Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God by whom you have been sealed for the day of redemption.

riversident@Ephesians:4:32 @ Be kind to one another, sympathetic, forgiving one another just as God in Christ has forgiven you.

riversident@Ephesians:5:2 @ and live in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself for us, an offering and sacrifice to God yielding a fragrant odor.

riversident@Ephesians:5:5 @ For you know well that no unchaste or impure person, no greedy person \'97 who is an idolater \'97 has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

riversident@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with empty words; for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the sons of disobedience.

riversident@Ephesians:5:8 @ For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live like children of light \'97

riversident@Ephesians:5:9 @ for the fruit of light appears in all generosity and righteousness and truth \'97

riversident@Ephesians:5:12 @ for the things that they do in secret it is shameful even to speak of.

riversident@Ephesians:5:13 @ But all things when reproved are shown truly by the light, for everything shown truly is light.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, when bereft of you for a little while, out of sight not out of mind, endeavored more earnestly to see your faces, with great longing.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ For that reason we determined to come to you, yes, I, Paul, more than once: but Satan hindered us.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore he who disregards this disregards not man, but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ Regarding brotherly love you have no need for me to write to you. For you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another,

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For since, as we believe, Jesus died and rose, so too God will through Jesus bring with him those who have fallen asleep.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel and with God's trumpet-call, and first the dead in Christ will rise.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we, the living, who are left, will be caught up along with them into the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall forever be with the Lord.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:7 @ For those who sleep sleep in the night and those who drink drink in the night.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day be sober. Let us put on the breastplate of faith and love and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace himself make you completely holy, and may your spirits and souls and bodies be kept faultless and blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:25 @ Brethren, pray for us.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For the mystery of lawlessness is already working, only there is just now one who is restraining it until he passes out of the way.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ For his coming will be when Satan is active in every sort of power and in false signs and wonders

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:11 @ For this reason God sends to them a deceptive influence so that they believe a lie,

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ We ought always to thank God for you, brethren, beloved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through the Spirit's making you holy and your own faith in the truth.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ Not that we have not the authority, but in order to give you ourselves as an example for you to imitate.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For when we were with you we gave you this command, "If any one will not work, neither is he to eat."

riversident@1Timothy:1:15 @ The saying is trust-worthy and deserving of full acceptance that "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners," of whom I am the foremost.

riversident@1Timothy:1:16 @ But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might show all of his long-suffering for an example for those who are to believe in him and gain life eternal.

riversident@Titus:2:11 @ For the grace of God has appeared bringing salvation to all men,

riversident@Titus:2:13 @ waiting for the blessed hope, the glorious appearing of the great God and of our Savior Christ Jesus,

riversident@Titus:2:14 @ who gave himself for us to redeem us from all sin and purify us as his own people earnest in honorable work.

riversident@Titus:3:1 @ REMIND them to be submissive to ruling authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

riversident@Titus:3:3 @ For we ourselves were once thoughtless, disobedient, astray, enslaved to passions and various pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.

riversident@Titus:3:9 @ But avoid foolish disputes and genealogies and strife and quarrels about the Law; for they are unprofitable and futile.

riversident@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas to you or Tychicus, try to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to pass the winter there.

riversident@Titus:3:13 @ Do your best in helping Zenas, the lawyer, and Apollos forward on their journey so that they may lack nothing.

riversident@Philemon:1:5 @ for I hear of the love and the loyalty that you have to the Lord Jesus Christ and to all the holy.

riversident@Philemon:1:7 @ For I have had great joy and encouragement in your love, because the hearts of the holy have been refreshed by you, brother.

riversident@Philemon:1:8 @ Therefore, though I might have great boldness in Christ to command you what is fitting,

riversident@Philemon:1:9 @ I beg you rather for love's sake, as Paul the old man and now the prisoner of Christ Jesus \'97

riversident@Philemon:1:13 @ I should like to have him for my own, to serve me in my chains for the good news, as your representative,

riversident@Philemon:1:15 @ Perhaps it was for this that he was separated from you for a time, that you might have him back for ever,

riversident@Philemon:1:17 @ If then you hold me for a partner, receive him as you would me.

riversident@Philemon:1:22 @ At the same time I want you to prepare a lodging for me, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be given back to you.

riversident@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels did he ever say, "Thou art my son; I have to-day become thy Father"? and again, "I will be to him a Father and he shall be to me a Son"?

riversident@Hebrews:1:8 @ But regarding the Son he says, "Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever. Thy royal scepter is a scepter of justice.

riversident@Hebrews:1:9 @ Thou lovest righteousness and hatest lawlessness, therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness beyond thy companions."

riversident@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth for service in behalf of those who are to inherit salvation?

riversident@Hebrews:2:1 @ FOR this reason we should give special attention to the things that we have heard, so as not to drift away from them.

riversident@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the message spoken through angels was sure and every violation and disobedience received merited punishment,

riversident@Hebrews:2:5 @ For he has not subjected to angels the coming world of which we speak.

riversident@Hebrews:2:6 @ But somewhere one says, "What is man that thou rememberest him? Or the son of man that thou carest for him?

riversident@Hebrews:2:9 @ but we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death that by the grace of God he might taste of death for every man, now crowned with glory and honor.

riversident@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it was fitting that he through whom are all things and for whom are all things, when leading many sons to glory, should make the great Leader of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

riversident@Hebrews:2:11 @ For he who makes holy and they who are made holy are all of one. For this cause he is not ashamed to call them brothers,

riversident@Hebrews:2:16 @ For he does not come to the help of angels, but he comes to the help of the descendants of Abraham.

riversident@Hebrews:2:17 @ And for that reason he had to be made like his brethren in everything, so as to be a compassionate and faithful high priest in things relating to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

riversident@Hebrews:2:18 @ For since he himself has suffered when tempted he is able to help those who are tempted.

riversident@Hebrews:3:1 @ THEREFORE, holy brethren, sharers in a heavenly call, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus,

riversident@Hebrews:3:3 @ For he has been thought worthy of more glory than Moses, just as he who has built a house has more honor than the house.

riversident@Hebrews:3:4 @ For every house is built by some one, but he who built all things is God.

riversident@Hebrews:3:5 @ Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant for a testimony to the things that were to be spoken,

riversident@Hebrews:3:7 @ Wherefore, as the Holy Spirit says, "To-day if you will hear his voice,

riversident@Hebrews:3:9 @ when your fathers put me to a test and saw my deeds for forty years.

riversident@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was much displeased with that generation and said, 'They always go astray in their hearts and they do not know my paths.'

riversident@Hebrews:3:12 @ See to it, brethren, that there shall not be in any one of you a wicked, unbelieving heart ready to forsake the living God,

riversident@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we become sharers with Christ if we hold firmly to the end the assurance with which we began.

riversident@Hebrews:3:17 @ With whom was he much displeased for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the desert?

riversident@Hebrews:4:2 @ For we have received the good news just as they did, but the message that was heard did not benefit them, since it did not meet with faith in the hearers.

riversident@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have faith are entering into the rest, as he said, "As I swore in my wrath, 'They shall not enter into my rest,' " although his works had been finished since the creation of the world.

riversident@Hebrews:4:4 @ For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day thus, "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works,"

riversident@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since, then, it remains for some to enter into it, and those who first received the good news did not enter because of lack of faith \'97

riversident@Hebrews:4:8 @ For if Joshua had given them rest he would not be speaking of another day after that.

riversident@Hebrews:4:9 @ Therefore there still remains a rest for the people of God.

riversident@Hebrews:4:10 @ For he who has entered into God's rest has rested from his works as God did from his.

riversident@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and effective and sharper than any two-edged sword, and it pierces until it divides soul and spirit, joints and marrow, and it judges the thoughts and purposes of the heart.

riversident@Hebrews:4:13 @ There is not a creature invisible to him, but all things are naked and defenseless before the eyes of him to whom we must account.

riversident@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, for he has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet without sin.

riversident@Hebrews:4:16 @ Therefore let us come with confidence to the throne of grace and receive compassion and find grace for timely help.

riversident@Hebrews:5:1 @ FOR every high priest taken from among men is appointed in behalf of men in things relating to God to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

riversident@Hebrews:5:3 @ For this reason he must bring an offering for his own sins, just as he does for those of the people.

riversident@Hebrews:5:5 @ So too Christ did not take for himself the glory of becoming a high priest, but he who said to him, "Thou art my Son, to-day I have become thy Father,"

riversident@Hebrews:5:6 @ and who says in another place, "Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek."

riversident@Hebrews:5:12 @ For when, considering the time, you ought to be teachers you need to have some one teach you again the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk and not solid food.

riversident@Hebrews:5:13 @ For every one who takes milk is inexperienced in the doctrine of righteousness, for he is a child.

riversident@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food is for adults who through practice have their senses exercised in distinguishing good and bad.

riversident@Hebrews:6:1 @ THEREFORE let us leave elementary teaching about Christ and hasten on to what is advanced, not laying again a foundation \'97 change of heart from dead works, faith in God,

riversident@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible for those who have been once for all enlightened and have tasted the heavenly gift and have become sharers in the Holy Spirit

riversident@Hebrews:6:6 @ and then have fallen away, to have again a change of heart, since they are crucifying for themselves afresh the Son of God and putting him to open shame.

riversident@Hebrews:6:7 @ For ground that drinks the rain that comes often upon it and bears plants useful to those for whom it is farmed shares in God's blessing;

riversident@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not so unjust as to forget your work and the love that you have shown to his name as you have served and are still serving the holy.

riversident@Hebrews:6:11 @ But we desire to have each one of you show to the end the same earnestness for the fulfillment of our hope,

riversident@Hebrews:6:13 @ For God, when making the promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, swore by himself,

riversident@Hebrews:6:16 @ For men swear by the greater and an oath for confirmation is to them the end of all dispute.

riversident@Hebrews:6:18 @ that by two unchangeable things, in which it was impossible for God to be false, we might have strong encouragement, we who have fled to lay hold on the hope that lies before us.

riversident@Hebrews:6:20 @ where Jesus, our forerunner, has entered in our behalf, becoming forever a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.

riversident@Hebrews:7:1 @ FOR, this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham when he was returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him,

riversident@Hebrews:7:10 @ For he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met Abraham.

riversident@Hebrews:7:11 @ If, then, perfection had been through the Levitical priesthood, \'97 for on the basis of that the people received the Law \'97 what need was there for another kind of priest to arise and not be called of the order of Aaron?

riversident@Hebrews:7:12 @ For when the priesthood has been changed there comes of necessity also a change of law.

riversident@Hebrews:7:13 @ For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has ever had anything to do with the altar.

riversident@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is plain that our Lord has arisen from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

riversident@Hebrews:7:16 @ who has become such, not according to the law of a commandment made for the flesh, but according to the power of unending life.

riversident@Hebrews:7:17 @ For it is affirmed of him, "Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek."

riversident@Hebrews:7:19 @ for the Law brought nothing to perfection \'97 and there is the bringing in of a better hope through which we draw near to God.

riversident@Hebrews:7:21 @ for those men have become priests without an oath, but he with an oath from him who said to him, "The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind: thou art a priest forever" \'97

riversident@Hebrews:7:24 @ but he, because he continues forever, has an unending priesthood.

riversident@Hebrews:7:25 @ And so he is able to save perfectly those who come to God through him, since he is forever living to intercede for them.

riversident@Hebrews:7:26 @ For such was the High Priest that we needed, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.

riversident@Hebrews:7:27 @ He has not the daily need, like the other priests, first to offer sacrifices for his own sins and then for those of the people. This latter he did once for all when he offered himself.

riversident@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the Law makes high priests of men who have infirmities, but the word of the oath, which comes after the Law, makes High Priest of a Son who is perfected forever.

riversident@Hebrews:8:3 @ Now every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices. Whence it is necessary for this one to have something to offer.

riversident@Hebrews:8:7 @ For if that first covenant had been faultless a place would not have been sought for a second.

riversident@Hebrews:8:8 @ But finding fault with it he says, "The days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make for the house of Israel and for the house of Judah a new covenant,

riversident@Hebrews:8:9 @ not in the manner of the covenant which I made with their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not abide by my covenant and I ceased to care for them, says the Lord.

riversident@Hebrews:8:11 @ They shall not teach each one his fellow citizen and each one his brother saying, 'Know the Lord'; for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest of them,

riversident@Hebrews:9:2 @ For a Tent was erected, in the first part of which were the lampstand and the table and the consecrated bread. This was called the Holy Place.

riversident@Hebrews:9:6 @ But these things being thus arranged, the priests go constantly into the first part of the Tent, performing their services,

riversident@Hebrews:9:7 @ but into the second part the High Priest alone goes once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself and for the sins ignorantly committed by the people.

riversident@Hebrews:9:9 @ That is a symbol, for the time being, in accordance with which gifts and sacrifices are offered, though they cannot make the worshiper perfect in his conscience,

riversident@Hebrews:9:10 @ since they consist only of foods and drinks and various baths \'97 rules respecting the flesh, imposed until the time of reformation.

riversident@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ came as High Priest of the good things that have come, he entered once for all through the greater and more perfect Tent not made by hands \'97 that is, not of this creation \'97

riversident@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the defiled, makes them holy as regards purity of their flesh,

riversident@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more will the blood of Christ, who through an eternal Spirit offered himself an unblemished sacrifice to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works for the service of the living God.

riversident@Hebrews:9:15 @ For this reason he is the mediator of a better covenant that, a death having taken place for redemption from sins under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the eternal inheritance promised to them.

riversident@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a last will and testament the death of the testator must be put in evidence.

riversident@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a will is valid in the case of the dead: it never has any force while the testator is living.

riversident@Hebrews:9:20 @ saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded for you."

riversident@Hebrews:9:22 @ Almost everything is cleansed with blood, according to the Law, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

riversident@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ did not enter into a holy place made by hands, a copy of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear before the face of God in our behalf.

riversident@Hebrews:9:26 @ then he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now, once for all, at the end of the ages, he has appeared to do away with sin by his sacrifice.

riversident@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appointed for men once for all to die and after this comes judgment,

riversident@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was once for all offered to bear the sins of many and will appear the second time, apart from sin, to those who are looking for him, and bring them salvation.

riversident@Hebrews:10:1 @ FOR the Law with a shadow of the good things that are coming, but not the very likeness of the things, cannot, by the same sacrifices which they offer constantly every year, ever make perfect those who come,

riversident@Hebrews:10:2 @ since would they not have ceased offering them? Because the worshipers, once for all cleansed, would have had no consciousness of sins.

riversident@Hebrews:10:4 @ For the blood of bulls and goats is powerless to take away sins.

riversident@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore on coming into the world he says, "Sacrifice and offering thou dost not desire: a body thou hast prepared for me.

riversident@Hebrews:10:10 @ By this "will" we are made holy through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

riversident@Hebrews:10:12 @ But this Priest after offering one sacrifice for sins forever, took his seat at the right hand of God,

riversident@Hebrews:10:13 @ for the future only waiting until his enemies are made his footstool.

riversident@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one offering he has forever perfected those who are made holy.

riversident@Hebrews:10:15 @ The Holy Spirit testifies this to us; for after having said,

riversident@Hebrews:10:18 @ But where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.

riversident@Hebrews:10:20 @ by the new and living way which he has made for us through the curtain, that is, his flesh,

riversident@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he is faithful who has promised,

riversident@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there remains no longer any sacrifice for sins,

riversident@Hebrews:10:30 @ For we know him who said, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay," and again, "The Lord will judge his people."

riversident@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you even suffered with the prisoners and accepted the plundering of your property with joy, knowing that you had a better and enduring possession.

riversident@Hebrews:10:35 @ Do not, then, cast away your confidence, for it will have a great reward.

riversident@Hebrews:10:37 @ For yet "a little, very little, while, and he who is coming will come and will not delay.

riversident@Hebrews:11:1 @ FAITH is an assurance of things hoped for, a conviction of things not seen.

riversident@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, for which he had witness borne to him that he was righteous, God testifying to his gifts, and by it, though dead, he still speaks.

riversident@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was taken from the earth so that he did not see death, and he was not found because God had taken him. For before being taken he had this testimony that he had pleased God.

riversident@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith it is impossible to please him. For he who comes to God must have faith that he exists and that he becomes the rewarder of those who seek him.

riversident@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, after receiving a divine warning regarding things as yet unseen, reverently built an ark for the saving of his household. Thus he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness of faith.

riversident@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham when called obeyed and came out into the place which he was to obtain for an inheritance. He came out not knowing where he was coming.

riversident@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he made his home in the promised land as in a foreign country, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.

riversident@Hebrews:11:10 @ For he was looking for the city that has the foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

riversident@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having obtained the promised blessings, but they saw them and greeted them afar and confessed that they were strangers and foreigners in the land.

riversident@Hebrews:11:14 @ For those who say such things make it plain that they are seeking a fatherland.

riversident@Hebrews:11:16 @ But now they desire a better land, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them \'97 of being called their God; for he has prepared for them a city.

riversident@Hebrews:11:26 @ and he thought the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt. For he was looking to the final reward.

riversident@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; for he endured as if seeing him who is unseen.

riversident@Hebrews:11:34 @ quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness grew strong, became mighty in war, turned back armies of foreigners.

riversident@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received back their dead by a resurrection. Others were tortured, refusing to pay for liberation, in order to gain a better resurrection.

riversident@Hebrews:12:1 @ THEREFORE, surrounded as we are by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin that so easily besets us, and let us run with patience the race that lies before us,

riversident@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you are enduring. God is laying it upon you as upon sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

riversident@Hebrews:12:26 @ His voice then shook the earth, but now he has announced, "Yet once for all I shall shake not only the earth but also heaven."

riversident@Hebrews:12:27 @ And this expression "yet once for all" shows the removal of the things shaken, as of things that have been made, that the unshaken things may remain.

riversident@James:1:11 @ For the sun rises with scorching heat and dries up the grass, and the flower of it falls and the beauty of its face perishes. So shall the rich man wither in his pursuits.

riversident@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures trial, for when he has been tested he will gain the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love him.

riversident@James:1:13 @ No one must say when tempted, "My temptation comes from God." For God cannot be tempted by evil, and he tempts no one.

riversident@James:1:20 @ For a man's anger does not work out God's righteousness.

riversident@James:1:23 @ For if one is a hearer of the message and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror.

riversident@James:1:24 @ He looks at himself and is gone, and immediately forgets what sort of man he was.

riversident@James:1:25 @ But he who looks earnestly into the perfect law of liberty and continues to do so, and becomes not a forgetful hearer but a doer of work \'97 that man will be blessed in what he does.

riversident@James:2:1 @ MY brethren, do not hold the faith of our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with partiality for persons.

riversident@James:2:2 @ For if there comes into your assembly a man with gold rings and in fine clothes, and there comes in a poor man in soiled clothes,

riversident@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you before courts?

riversident@James:2:10 @ For he who keeps the whole law, but stumbles in one point, has become guilty of all.

riversident@James:2:11 @ For he who said, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," said also, "Thou shalt not commit murder." If you do not commit adultery, but do commit murder, you have become a law-breaker.

riversident@James:2:13 @ For judgment is merciless to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

riversident@James:2:14 @ Of what use is it, my brethren, for any one to say that he has faith, if he has not works? Can faith save him?

riversident@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked and lacks food for the day

riversident@James:2:23 @ and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham had faith in God and it was credited to him for righteousness" and he was called "God's friend."

riversident@James:3:1 @ DO not, many of you, become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we will receive severer judgment.

riversident@James:3:2 @ For in many ways we all stumble. If any one never stumbles in his talk, he is a perfect man, able to bridle also the whole body.

riversident@1Peter:1:6 @ In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you are sorrowful in trials of many kinds,

riversident@1Peter:1:10 @ Regarding this salvation the prophets who foretold the grace that was to come to you

riversident@1Peter:1:11 @ inquired and searched, trying to find out what time, or what sort of time, the Spirit of Christ which was in them was disclosing when it witnessed beforehand regarding the sufferings of Christ and the glories to follow.

riversident@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in these things which now have been announced to you through those who have told you the good news by the Holy Spirit sent forth from heaven \'97 things which angels earnestly long to look into.

riversident@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore brace up your minds, be calm and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed.

riversident@1Peter:1:14 @ As obedient children, do not shape your lives by the passions that ruled you in the former days of ignorance,

riversident@1Peter:1:16 @ for it is written, "You shall be holy because I am holy."

riversident@1Peter:1:18 @ for you know that you were not ransomed with perishable things, silver or gold, from your purposeless life handed down from your forefathers,

riversident@1Peter:1:20 @ who was foreknown before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the end of time for your sake

riversident@1Peter:1:22 @ Now that you have made your souls holy by obedience to the truth for sincere brotherly love, you must love one another steadily from your hearts,

riversident@1Peter:1:23 @ for you have been reborn, not from mortal seed but from immortal by the living and enduring word of God.

riversident@1Peter:1:24 @ For "All flesh is like grass and all its glory is like the flower of the grass; the grass withers and the flower falls,

riversident@1Peter:1:25 @ but the word of the Lord endures forever." And this is the word of good news that has been brought to you.

riversident@1Peter:2:2 @ and, like new-born babes, long for the reasonable pure milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation,

riversident@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore it is contained in Scripture, "See, I am laying in Zion a chosen stone, an honored corner stone. He who has faith in him will not be put to shame."

riversident@1Peter:2:8 @ a stone for the foot to strike, a rock to stumble over." Their feet strike the message because of their unbelief, and to this they were destined.

riversident@1Peter:2:11 @ Beloved, I beg you, as foreigners and resident aliens, to shun the passions of the flesh which war against the soul.

riversident@1Peter:2:13 @ Be submissive to every human institution for the Lord's sake, whether to the king as supreme,

riversident@1Peter:2:14 @ or to governors as those sent by him for the punishment of wrongdoers and the praise of those who do good.

riversident@1Peter:2:15 @ For this is the will of God \'97 that by doing good we shall silence the ignorance of thoughtless men.

riversident@1Peter:2:16 @ Live as free men, yet not using freedom as a cloak for wickedness, but as God's slaves.

riversident@1Peter:2:19 @ For this is grace if for conscience toward God any one bears pain, suffering unjustly.

riversident@1Peter:2:20 @ For what credit is it if when you sin and are struck with the fist you are patient? But if though doing well, you suffer and are patient, that is grace in God's sight.

riversident@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you were called, because Christ too suffered for you, leaving you an example that you might follow in his foot-steps.

riversident@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were going astray like sheep, but have now returned to the shepherd and guardian of your souls.

riversident@1Peter:3:5 @ For so of old the holy women who hoped in God adorned themselves. They were submissive to their own husbands,

riversident@1Peter:3:9 @ not repaying evil for evil or abuse for abuse, but rather blessing, for that is what you were called for \'97 to inherit a blessing.

riversident@1Peter:3:10 @ For "He who would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit.

riversident@1Peter:3:12 @ For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous and his ears are open to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against wrongdoers."

riversident@1Peter:3:13 @ And who is it that will harm you if you become earnest for the good?

riversident@1Peter:3:14 @ But if you should suffer for being righteous, you are blessed. Have no fear of them and do not be disturbed;

riversident@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is better to suffer, if that should be God's will, for doing good than for doing wrong.

riversident@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ once for all died for sins, a righteous man for unrighteous men, so that he might lead us to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit,

riversident@1Peter:3:21 @ This is a type of baptism, which now saves us \'97 not the putting off of soil from the flesh, but the endeavor for a good conscience toward God through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

riversident@1Peter:4:1 @ SINCE, then, Christ suffered in the flesh, you also must arm yourselves with the same mind. For he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

riversident@1Peter:4:6 @ And for this purpose the good news was told even to the dead, that they might be judged like men in the flesh, but live as God does in the spirit.

riversident@1Peter:4:7 @ The end of all things is near. Therefore be serious and sober and give yourselves to prayer.

riversident@1Peter:4:8 @ Above all things have earnest love to one another, for love hides a host of sins.

riversident@1Peter:4:11 @ If any one speaks, let it be as uttering the oracles of God. If any one serves, let it be from the strength that God supplies. Thus in all things let God be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him be glory and strength for the ages of the ages! Amen.

riversident@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reproached for the name of Christ you are blessed, for the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.

riversident@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God. And if it begins first with us, what will be the end of those who disobey the good news of God?

riversident@1Peter:5:2 @ I beg you to shepherd the flock of God that is among you, not because you must, but willingly, not for base gain, but eagerly,

riversident@1Peter:5:5 @ In the same way you younger men must be subject to your elders. You all must put on the apron of humble service for one another. For God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

riversident@1Peter:5:7 @ Cast all your anxiety on him, for he cares for you.

riversident@1Peter:5:11 @ To him be power for the ages of the ages! Amen.

riversident@2Peter:1:5 @ for this very reason make it your whole endeavor to supply to your faith virtue, and to your virtue knowledge,

riversident@2Peter:1:8 @ For when you have these in abundance they make you to be neither idle nor fruitless regarding the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@2Peter:1:9 @ But he who lacks these is blind, dim-sighted, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins.

riversident@2Peter:1:10 @ Therefore endeavor more earnestly, brethren, to make sure that you have been called and chosen. For while doing these things you will never stumble.

riversident@2Peter:1:11 @ For so entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly provided for you.

riversident@2Peter:1:12 @ For this reason I shall always keep reminding you of these things, although you know them and are steadfast in the truth that you have.

riversident@2Peter:1:16 @ For we were not following cunningly devised myths when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eye-witnesses of his majesty.

riversident@2Peter:1:17 @ For he received from God the Father honor and glory when such words as these were borne to him from the majestic glory, "This is my Son, the Beloved; in him I delight."

riversident@2Peter:1:21 @ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

riversident@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare angels that had sinned, but thrust them down to Tartarus and committed them to pits of darkness to be kept for judgment,

riversident@2Peter:2:6 @ and if reducing to ashes the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah he condemned them to destruction, making them an example for the godless of what would come upon them,

riversident@2Peter:2:8 @ for that righteous man living among them was tortured day and night in his righteous soul by the sight and hearing of their lawless deeds, \'97

riversident@2Peter:2:9 @ the Lord knows how to rescue the pious from trial and how to keep the wicked under punishment for the day of judgment,

riversident@2Peter:2:11 @ even where angels greater in strength and power do not bring against them an insulting charge before the Lord.

riversident@2Peter:2:12 @ But they, like irrational creatures, born mere animals for capture and destruction, while speaking profanely of things they are ignorant of, will be corrupted by their own corruption,

riversident@2Peter:2:16 @ But he was reproved for his sin; a dumb beast of draught, speaking with human voice, checked the madness of the prophet.

riversident@2Peter:2:17 @ These men are springs without water, storm-driven mists for whom the blackness of darkness is reserved.

riversident@2Peter:2:18 @ For by speaking great empty swelling words they entrap in the passions of the flesh \'97 wanton excesses \'97 those who are nearly escaping from those who live in error.

riversident@2Peter:2:19 @ While they promise them liberty they themselves are the slaves of corruption; for by whatever any one is overcome to that he is enslaved.

riversident@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they have been again entangled and overcome, their last state has become worse than the first.

riversident@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment that has been committed to them.

riversident@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying, "Where is his promised coming? for since the fathers fell asleep all things remain as they have been since the beginning of the creation?"

riversident@2Peter:3:5 @ For they willfully forget that there were heavens of old and an earth formed out of water and through water by God's word.

riversident@2Peter:3:7 @ But the present heavens and the earth are by the same word treasured up and kept for fire on the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

riversident@2Peter:3:8 @ Do not forget this one thing, beloved, that one day with the Lord is like a thousand years and a thousand years are like one day.

riversident@2Peter:3:12 @ you who are looking for and hastening toward the coming of the day of God, when the blazing heavens will be dissolved and the burning elements melted?

riversident@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, since you expect this, endeavor earnestly to be found by him in peace, spotless and faultless,

riversident@2Peter:3:17 @ You, then, beloved, since you know these things beforehand, be on your guard not to be led away by the error of the lawless and fall from your own steadfastness,

riversident@1John:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness:

riversident@1John:2:2 @ And he is an atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but for those of the whole world.

riversident@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am not writing a new command for you, but an old command, which you have had from the beginning. The old command is the message that you have heard.

riversident@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven for his name's sake.

riversident@1John:2:16 @ for all that is in the world, the passions of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the show and pride of life, is not from the Father, but from the world.

riversident@1John:2:17 @ And the world is passing away with its passions. But he who does the will of God endures forever.

riversident@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us, for if they had been of us they would have continued with us. But they went out so that it might be plainly seen that not all are of us.

riversident@1John:2:27 @ But as for you, the anointing that you have received from him remains in you and you have no need for any one to teach you, but as his anointing teaches you about all things and is true and is no lie and as it has taught you, you must remain in him.

riversident@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, we are now children of God and it is not yet plain what we shall be. But we know that if he appears we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

riversident@1John:3:4 @ Every one who commits sin commits also lawlessness; for sin is lawlessness.

riversident@1John:3:8 @ He who is committing sin is of the Devil, for the Devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this the Son of God appeared \'97 to undo the works of the Devil.

riversident@1John:3:9 @ No one who has been born of God commits sin, for God's life-giving germ remains in him and he cannot continue sinning, because he has been born of God.

riversident@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we must love one another.

riversident@1John:3:12 @ Not like Cain, who was of the Wicked One and killed his brother. And for what reason did he kill him? Because his own deeds were wicked and his brother's righteous.

riversident@1John:3:16 @ By this we have come to know love \'97 that Christ laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

riversident@1John:4:1 @ BELOVED, do not trust every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are from God. For many false prophets have come out into the world.

riversident@1John:4:5 @ They belong to the world and for that reason they speak as the world speaks and the world listens to them.

riversident@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and every one who loves has been born of God and knows God.

riversident@1John:4:8 @ He who does not love does not know God; for God is love.

riversident@1John:4:10 @ In this is love \'97 not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

riversident@1John:4:16 @ We have come to know and have put our trust in the love which God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God and God remains in him.

riversident@1John:4:20 @ If any one says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar. For he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen.

riversident@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, our keeping his commands. And his commands are not burden-some,

riversident@1John:5:8 @ For there are three that bear witness, the Spirit and the water and the blood, and the three are in accord.

riversident@1John:5:9 @ If we accept the testimony of men the testimony of God is greater; for this is God's testimony, that he has testified regarding his Son.

riversident@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees his brother committing a sin that is not deadly, he must ask and God will give him life for those who are committing sin that is not deadly. There is sin that is deadly. I do not say that he should pray in behalf of that.

riversident@2John:1:2 @ for the sake of the truth which remains in us and will be with us forever:

riversident@2John:1:5 @ And now I pray you, Lady, not as if writing a new command for you, but one that we have had from the beginning, let us love one another.

riversident@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have come out into the world and they do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the Antichrist.

riversident@2John:1:8 @ Guard yourselves so as not to lose what we have worked for, but so that you may gain a full reward.

riversident@2John:1:9 @ Every one who goes forward and does not remain in the teaching of Christ is without God. He who remains in the teaching, he has the Father and the Son.

riversident@3John:1:3 @ For I rejoiced greatly when brethren came and testified to your truth \'97 that you are living in the truth.

riversident@3John:1:5 @ Beloved, you do faithfully whatever work you do for the brethren, even when they are strangers,

riversident@3John:1:6 @ and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to help them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God.

riversident@3John:1:7 @ For it was for the Name that they came out, taking nothing from the Gentiles.

riversident@3John:1:10 @ Therefore, if I come I will bring to mind the works that he is doing, accusing us with wicked words, and not satisfied with that, neither does he receive the brethren, and he hinders those who wish to do so and expels them from the church.

riversident@Jude:1:1 @ JUDE, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, to those who are in God the Father, beloved, kept for Jesus Christ and called:

riversident@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, although I have been making every effort to write to you regarding our common salvation, I now find it necessary to write and urge you to contend vigorously for the faith that was once for all delivered to the holy.

riversident@Jude:1:4 @ For certain persons have crept in, who of old were written of as predestined to this doom, godless, changing the grace of our God into profligacy and disowning our only Ruler and Lord, Jesus Christ.

riversident@Jude:1:5 @ I wish to remind you, although you know all things once for all, that the Lord, after saving a people from the land of Egypt, then destroyed those who had no faith;

riversident@Jude:1:6 @ and angels who did not keep their own rank, but left their own abode, he has kept for the judgment of the great day in everlasting chains under blackness of darkness.

riversident@Jude:1:11 @ Alas for them! for they have traveled in the path of Cain, and for hire have rushed headlong into the error of Balaam, and have perished in the rebellious talk of Korah.

riversident@Jude:1:12 @ These are the hidden reefs in your love-feasts while they feast freely with you without fear, shepherds who care only for themselves, waterless clouds driven by winds, trees in autumn fruitless, twice dead, uprooted,

riversident@Jude:1:13 @ wild waves of the sea foaming out their own shame, wandering stars for which the blackness of darkness is reserved forever.

riversident@Jude:1:16 @ These men are complaining grumblers, living according to their own passions, and their mouths speak great swelling words. They show admiration for persons for the sake of their own gain.

riversident@Jude:1:21 @ must keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you into life eternal.

riversident@Jude:1:24 @ To him who is able to guard you from falling and to make you stand faultless before his glory in great joy,

riversident@Jude:1:25 @ to the only God our Savior, be, through Jesus Christ our Lord, glory, majesty, might, and authority, before all time and now and for all the ages! Amen.
