wmth@Matthew:3:3 @ He it is who was spoken of through the Prophet Isaiah when he said,

wmth@Matthew:3:5 @ Then large numbers of people went out to him –people from Jerusalem and from all Judaea, and from the whole of the Jordan valley–

wmth@Matthew:3:7 @ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he exclaimed, `O vipers' brood, who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

wmth@Matthew:3:11 @ I indeed am baptizing you in water on a profession of repentance; but He who is coming after me is mightier than I: His sandals I am not worthy to carry for a moment; He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire.

wmth@Matthew:3:14 @ John protested. »It is I,« he said, »who have need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?«

wmth@Matthew:3:17 @ while a voice came from Heaven, saying, »This is My Son, the dearly loved, in whom is My delight.«

wmth@Matthew:4:24 @ Thus His fame spread through all Syria; and they brought all the sick to Him, the people who were suffering from various diseases and pains–demoniacs, epileptics, paralytics; and He cured them.

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

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

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

wmth@Matthew:5:16 @ Just so let your light shine before all men, in order that they may see your holy lives and may give glory to your Father who is in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:5:19 @ Whoever therefore breaks one of these least commandments and teaches others to break them, will be called the least in the Kingdom of the Heavens; but whoever practises them and teaches them, he will be acknowledged as great in the Kingdom of the Heavens.

wmth@Matthew:5:21 @ »You have heard that it was said to the ancients, and whoever commits murder will be answerable to the magistrate.«

wmth@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that every one who becomes angry with his brother shall be answerable to the magistrate; that whoever says to his brother `Raca,' shall be answerable to the Sanhedrin; and that whoever says, `You fool!' shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire.

wmth@Matthew:5:28 @ But I tell you that whoever looks at a woman and cherishes lustful thoughts has already in his heart become guilty with regard to her.

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

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

wmth@Matthew:5:32 @ But I tell you that every man who puts away his wife except on the ground of unfaithfulness causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries her when so divorced commits adultery.

wmth@Matthew:5:41 @ And whoever shall compel you to convey his goods one mile, go with him two.

wmth@Matthew:5:42 @ To him who asks, give: from him who would borrow, turn not away.

wmth@Matthew:5:45 @ that so you may become true sons of your Father in Heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the wicked as well as the good, and sends rain upon those who do right and those who do wrong.

wmth@Matthew:5:46 @ For if you love only those who love you, what reward have you earned? Do not even the tax-gatherers do that?

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

wmth@Matthew:6:4 @ that your charities may be in secret; and then your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.

wmth@Matthew:6:6 @ But you, whenever you pray, go into your own room and shut the door: then pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.

wmth@Matthew:6:9 @ »In this manner therefore pray: `Our Father who art in Heaven, may Thy name be kept holy;«

wmth@Matthew:6:12 @ and forgive us our shortcomings, as we also have forgiven those who have failed in their duty towards us;

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

wmth@Matthew:6:22 @ »The eye is the lamp of the body. If then your eyesight is good, your whole body will be well lighted;«

wmth@Matthew:6:23 @ but if your eyesight is bad, your whole body will be dark. If however the very light within you is darkness, how dense must the darkness be!

wmth@Matthew:7:8 @ For it is always he who asks that receives, he who seeks that finds, and he who knocks that has the door opened to him.

wmth@Matthew:7:9 @ What man is there among you, who if his son shall ask him for bread will offer him a stone?

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

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

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

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

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

wmth@Matthew:7:24 @ »Every one who hears these my teachings and acts upon them will be found to resemble a wise man who builds his house upon rock;«

wmth@Matthew:7:26 @ And every one who hears these my teachings and does not act upon them will be found to resemble a fool who builds his house upon sand.

wmth@Matthew:7:29 @ for He had been teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their Scribes taught.

wmth@Matthew:8:14 @ After this Jesus went to the house of Peter, whose mother-in-law he found ill in bed with fever.

wmth@Matthew:8:33 @ The swineherds fled, and went and told the whole story in the town, including what had happened to the demoniacs.

wmth@Matthew:8:34 @ So at once the whole population came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they besought Him to leave their country.

wmth@Matthew:9:8 @ And the crowds were awe-struck when they saw it, and ascribed the glory to God who had entrusted such power to a man.

wmth@Matthew:9:12 @ He heard the question and replied, »It is not men in good health who require a doctor, but the sick.

wmth@Matthew:9:20 @ But a woman who for twelve years had been afflicted with haemorrhage came behind Him and touched the tassel of His cloak;

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

wmth@Matthew:10:14 @ And whoever refuses to receive you or even to listen to your Message, as you leave that house or town, shake off the very dust from your feet.

wmth@Matthew:10:16 @ »Remember it is I who am sending you out, as sheep into the midst of wolves; prove yourselves as sagacious as serpents, and as innocent as doves.«

wmth@Matthew:10:20 @ for it is not you who will speak: it will be the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

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

wmth@Matthew:10:28 @ »And do not fear those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.«

wmth@Matthew:10:32 @ »Every man who acknowledges me before men I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in Heaven.«

wmth@Matthew:10:33 @ But whoever disowns me before men I also will disown before my Father who is in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:10:37 @ Any one who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and any one who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;

wmth@Matthew:10:38 @ and any one who does not take up his cross and follow where I lead is not worthy of me.

wmth@Matthew:10:40 @ »Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives Him who sent me.«

wmth@Matthew:10:41 @ Every one who receives a prophet, because he is a prophet, will receive a prophet's reward, and every one who receives a righteous man, because he is a righteous man, will receive a righteous man's reward.

wmth@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water to drink because he is a disciple, I solemnly tell you that he will not lose his reward.«

wmth@Matthew:11:6 @ and blessed is every one who does not stumble and fall because of my claims.«

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

wmth@Matthew:11:10 @ This is he of whom it is written, «

wmth@Matthew:11:11 @ »I solemnly tell you that among all of woman born no greater has ever been raised up than John the Baptist; yet one who is of lower rank in the Kingdom of the Heavens is greater than he.«

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

wmth@Matthew:11:15 @ Listen, every one who has ears!

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

wmth@Matthew:11:27 @ »All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one fully knows the Son except the Father, nor does any one fully know the Father except the Son and all to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.«

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

wmth@Matthew:12:11 @ »Which of you is there,« He replied, »who, if he has but a single sheep and it falls into a hole on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?

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

wmth@Matthew:12:27 @ And if it is by Baal-zebul's power that I expel the demons, by whose power do your disciples expel them? They therefore shall be your judges.

wmth@Matthew:12:30 @ »The man who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me is scattering abroad.

wmth@Matthew:12:32 @ And whoever shall speak against the Son of Man may obtain forgiveness; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, neither in this nor in the coming age shall he obtain forgiveness.«

wmth@Matthew:12:33 @ »Either grant the tree to be wholesome and its fruit wholesome, or the tree poisonous and its fruit poisonous; for the tree is known by its fruit.

wmth@Matthew:12:38 @ Then He was accosted by some of the Scribes and of the Pharisees who said, »Teacher, we wish to see a sign given by you.«

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

wmth@Matthew:12:50 @ To obey my Father who is in Heaven–that is to be my brother and my sister and my mother.«

wmth@Matthew:13:9 @ Listen, every one who has ears!«

wmth@Matthew:13:12 @ For whoever has, to him more shall be given, and he shall have abundance; but whoever has not, from him even what he has shall be taken away.

wmth@Matthew:13:19 @ When a man hears the Message concerning the Kingdom and does not understand it, the Evil one comes and catches away what has been sown in his heart. This is he who has received the seed by the road-side.

wmth@Matthew:13:20 @ He who has received the seed on the rocky ground is the man who hears the Message and immediately receives it with joy.

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

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

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

wmth@Matthew:13:33 @ Another parable He spoke to them. »The Kingdom of the Heavens,« He said, »is like yeast which a woman takes and buries in a bushel of flour, for it to work there till the whole mass has risen.«

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

wmth@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will commission His angels, and they will gather out of His Kingdom all causes of sin and all who violate His laws;

wmth@Matthew:13:43 @ Then will the righteous shine out like the sun in their Father's Kingdom. Listen, every one who has ears!

wmth@Matthew:13:45 @ »Again the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a jewel merchant who is in quest of choice pearls.«

wmth@Matthew:13:52 @ »Therefore,« He said, »remember that every Scribe well trained for the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a householder who brings out of his storehouse new things and old.«

wmth@Matthew:14:14 @ So Jesus went out and saw an immense multitude, and felt compassion for them, and cured those of them who were out of health.

wmth@Matthew:14:21 @ Those who had eaten were about 5,000 adult men, without reckoning women and children.

wmth@Matthew:14:36 @ and they entreated Him that they might but touch the tassel of His outer garment; and all who did so were restored to perfect health.

wmth@Matthew:15:1 @ Then there came to Jesus a party of Pharisees and Scribes from Jerusalem, who inquired,

wmth@Matthew:15:30 @ Soon great crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were crippled in feet or hands, blind or dumb, and many besides, and they hastened to lay them at His feet. And He cured them,

wmth@Matthew:15:38 @ Those who ate were 4,000 adult men, without reckoning women and children.

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

wmth@Matthew:16:15 @ »But you, who do you say that I am?« He asked again.

wmth@Matthew:16:25 @ For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall find it.

wmth@Matthew:16:26 @ Why, what benefit will it be to a man if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give to buy back his life?

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

wmth@Matthew:17:5 @ He was still speaking when a luminous cloud spread over them; and a voice was heard from within the cloud, which said, »This is My Son dearly beloved, in whom is My delight. Listen to Him.«

wmth@Matthew:17:13 @ Then it dawned upon the disciples that it was John the Baptist about whom He had spoken to them.

wmth@Matthew:17:14 @ When they had returned to the people, there came to Him a man who fell on his knees before Him and besought Him.

wmth@Matthew:17:25 @ »Yes,« he replied, and then went into the house. But before he spoke a word Jesus said, »What think you, Simon? From whom do this world's kings receive customs or capitation tax? from their own children, or from others?«

wmth@Matthew:18:1 @ Just then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, »Who ranks higher than others in the Kingdom of the Heavens?«

wmth@Matthew:18:4 @ Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this young child, he it is who is superior to others in the Kingdom of the Heavens.

wmth@Matthew:18:5 @ And whoever for my sake receives one young child such as this, receives me.

wmth@Matthew:18:6 @ But whoever shall occasion the fall of one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

wmth@Matthew:18:7 @ »Alas for the world because of causes of falling! They cannot but come, but alas for each man through whom they come!«

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

wmth@Matthew:18:19 @ I also solemnly tell you that if two of you here on earth agree together concerning anything whatever that they shall ask, the boon will come to them from my Father who is in Heaven.

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

wmth@Matthew:18:24 @ But as soon as he began the settlement, one was brought before him who owed 10,000 talents,

wmth@Matthew:18:26 @ The servant therefore falling down, prostrated himself at his feet and entreated him. »`Only give me time,' he said, `and I will pay you the whole.'

wmth@Matthew:18:28 @ But no sooner had that servant gone out, than he met with one of his fellow servants who owed him 100 shillings; and seizing him by the throat and nearly strangling him he exclaimed, `Pay me all you owe.'«

wmth@Matthew:19:4 @ »Have you not read,« He replied, »that He who made them from the beginning

wmth@Matthew:19:9 @ And I tell you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except her unfaithfulness, and marries another woman, commits adultery.«

wmth@Matthew:19:11 @ »It is not every man,« He replied, »who can receive this teaching, but only those on whom the grace has been bestowed.

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

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

wmth@Matthew:19:17 @ »Why do you ask me,« He replied, »about what is good? There is only One who is truly good. But if you desire to enter into Life, keep the Commandments.«

wmth@Matthew:19:25 @ These words utterly amazed the disciples, and they asked, »Who then can be saved?«

wmth@Matthew:19:28 @ »I solemnly tell you,« replied Jesus, »that in the New Creation, when the Son of Man has taken His seat on His glorious throne, all of you who have followed me shall also sit on twelve thrones and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

wmth@Matthew:19:29 @ And whoever has forsaken houses, or brothers or sisters, or father or mother, or children or lands, for my sake, shall receive many times as much and shall have as his inheritance the Life of the Ages.

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

wmth@Matthew:20:1 @ »For the Kingdom of the Heavens is like an employer who went out early in the morning to hire men to work in his vineyard,«

wmth@Matthew:20:9 @ »When those came who had begun at five o'clock, they received a shilling apiece;«

wmth@Matthew:20:12 @ »`These who came last have done only one hour's work, and you have put them on a level with us who have worked the whole day and have borne the scorching heat.'«

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

wmth@Matthew:20:26 @ Not so shall it be among you; but whoever desires to be great among you shall be your servant,

wmth@Matthew:20:27 @ and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant;

wmth@Matthew:20:30 @ two blind men sitting by the roadside heard that it was Jesus who was passing by, and cried aloud, »Sir, Son of David, pity us.«

wmth@Matthew:21:10 @ When He thus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was thrown into commotion, every one inquiring, »Who is this?«

wmth@Matthew:21:12 @ Entering the Temple, Jesus drove out all who were buying and selling there, and overturned the money-changers' tables and the seats of the pigeon-dealers.

wmth@Matthew:21:15 @ But when the High Priests and the Scribes saw the wonderful things that He had done and the children who were crying aloud in the Temple, they were filled with indignation.

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

wmth@Matthew:21:28 @ »But give me your judgement. There was a man who had two sons. He came to the elder of them, and said,« `My son, go and work in the vineyard to-day.'

wmth@Matthew:21:33 @ »Listen to another parable. There was a householder who planted a vineyard, made a fence round it, dug a wine-tank in it, and built a strong lodge; then let the place to vine-dressers, and went abroad.«

wmth@Matthew:21:41 @ »He will put the wretches to a wretched death,« was the reply, »and will entrust the vineyard to other vine-dressers who will render the produce to him at the vintage season.«

wmth@Matthew:21:44 @ He who falls on this stone will be severely hurt; but he on whom it falls will be utterly crushed.«

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

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

wmth@Matthew:22:8 @ Then he said to his servants, »`The wedding banquet is ready, but those who were invited were unworthy of it.

wmth@Matthew:22:11 @ »Now the king came in to see the guests; and among them he discovered one who was not wearing a wedding-robe.«

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

wmth@Matthew:22:20 @ »Whose likeness and inscription,« He asked, »is this?«

wmth@Matthew:22:28 @ At the Resurrection, therefore, whose wife of the seven will she be? for they all married her.«

wmth@Matthew:22:40 @ The whole of the Law and the Prophets is summed up in these two Commandments.«

wmth@Matthew:22:42 @ »What think you about the Christ,« He said, »whose son is He?«»David's,« they replied.

wmth@Matthew:23:11 @ He who is the greatest among you shall be your servant;

wmth@Matthew:23:12 @ and one who exalts himself shall be abased, while one who abases himself shall be exalted.

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

wmth@Matthew:23:16 @ »Alas for you, you blind guides, who say,« `Whoever swears by the Sanctuary it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gold of the Sanctuary, is bound by the oath.'

wmth@Matthew:23:18 @ And you say, »`Whoever swears by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the offering lying on it is bound by the oath.'

wmth@Matthew:23:20 @ He who swears by the altar swears both by it and by everything on it;

wmth@Matthew:23:21 @ he who swears by the Sanctuary swears both by it and by Him who dwells in it;

wmth@Matthew:23:22 @ and he who swears by Heaven swears both by the throne of God and by Him who sits upon it.

wmth@Matthew:25:16 @ Without delay the one who had received the five talents went and employed them in business, and gained five more.

wmth@Matthew:25:17 @ In the same way he who had the two gained two more.

wmth@Matthew:25:18 @ But the man who had received the one went and dug a hole and buried his master's money.

wmth@Matthew:25:20 @ The one who had received the five talents came and brought five more, and said, »`Sir, it was five talents that you entrusted to me: see, I have gained five more.'

wmth@Matthew:26:61 @ who testified, »This man said, `I am able to pull down the Sanctuary of God and three days afterwards to build a new one.'«

wmth@Matthew:26:68 @ while they taunted Him, saying, »Christ, prove yourself a Prophet by telling us who it was that struck you.«

wmth@John:11:2 @ (It was the Mary who poured the perfume over the Lord and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.)

wmth@John:11:3 @ So the sisters sent to Him to say, »Master, he whom you hold dear is ill.«

wmth@John:11:27 @ »Yes, Master,« she replied; »I thoroughly believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.«

wmth@John:11:31 @ So the Jews who were with Mary in the house sympathizing with her, when they saw that she had risen hastily and had gone out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep aloud there.

wmth@John:11:50 @ You do not reflect that it is to your interest that one man should die for the people rather than the whole nation perish.«

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

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

wmth@John:12:4 @ Then said Judas (the Iscariot, one of the Twelve–the one who afterwards betrayed Jesus),

wmth@John:12:9 @ Now it became widely known among the Jews that Jesus was there; but they came not only on His account, but also in order to see Lazarus whom He had brought back to life.

wmth@John:12:12 @ The next day a great crowd of those who had come to the Festival, hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

wmth@John:12:17 @ The large number of people, however, who had been present when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and brought him back to life, related what they had witnessed.

wmth@John:12:25 @ He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life of the Ages.

wmth@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered Him, »We have heard out of the Law that the Christ remains for ever. In what sense do you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is that Son of Man?«

wmth@John:12:35 @ »Yet a little while,« He replied, »the light is among you. Be faithful to the light that you have, for fear darkness should overtake you; for a man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going.

wmth@John:12:49 @ Because I have not spoken on my own authority; but the Father who sent me, Himself gave me a command what to say and in what words to speak.

wmth@John:13:1 @ Now just before the Feast of the Passover this incident took place. Jesus knew that the time had come for Him to leave this world and go to the Father; and having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

wmth@John:13:10 @ »Any one who has lately bathed,« said Jesus, »does not need to wash more than his feet, but is clean all over. And you my disciples are clean, and yet this is not true of all of you.«

wmth@John:16:5 @ But now I an returning to Him who sent me; and not one of you asks me where I am going.

wmth@John:18:4 @ Jesus therefore, knowing all that was about to befall Him, went out to meet them. »Who are you looking for?« He asked them.

wmth@John:18:5 @ »For Jesus the Nazarene,« was the answer. »I am he,« He replied. (Now Judas who was betraying Him was also standing with them.)

wmth@John:18:7 @ Again therefore He asked them, »Who are you looking for?«»For Jesus the Nazarene,« they said.

wmth@John:18:9 @ He made this request in order that the words He had spoken might be fulfilled, »As for those whom Thou hast given me, I have not lost one.«

wmth@John:18:13 @ They then brought Him to Annas first; for Annas was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was High Priest that year.

wmth@John:18:26 @ One of the High Priest's servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, »Did I not see you in the garden with him?«

wmth@John:18:35 @ »Am I a Jew?« exclaimed Pilate; »it is your own nation and the High Priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?«

wmth@John:18:37 @ »So then are a king!« rejoined Pilate. »Yes,« said Jesus, »you say truly that I am a king. For this purpose I was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world–to give testimony for the truth. Every one who is a friend of the truth listens to my voice.«

wmth@John:19:11 @ »You would have had no power whatever over me,« replied Jesus, »had it not been granted you from above. On that account he who has delivered me up to you is more guilty than you are.«

wmth@John:19:12 @ Upon receiving this answer, Pilate was for releasing Him. But the Jews kept shouting, »If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar's. Every one who sets himself up as king declares himself a rebel against Caesar.«

wmth@John:19:26 @ So Jesus, seeing His mother, and seeing the disciple whom He loved standing near, said to His mother, »Behold, your son!«

wmth@John:19:32 @ Accordingly the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and also of the other who had been crucified with Jesus.

wmth@John:19:38 @ After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and removed the body.

wmth@John:19:39 @ Nicodemus too –he who at first had visited Jesus by night– came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, in weight about seventy or eighty pounds.

wmth@John:20:2 @ So she ran, as fast as she could, to find Simon Peter and the other disciple –the one who was dear to Jesus– and to tell them, »They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put Him.«

wmth@John:20:15 @ »Why are you weeping?« He asked; »who are you looking for?« She, supposing that He was the gardener, replied, »Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him and I will remove him.«

wmth@John:20:29 @ »Because you have seen me,« replied Jesus, »you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.«

wmth@Acts:21:36 @ for the whole mass of the people pressed on in the rear, shouting, »Away with him!«

wmth@Acts:21:38 @ »Are you not the Egyptian who some years ago excited the riot of the 4,000 cut-throats, and led them out into the Desert?«

wmth@Acts:22:5 @ as the High Priest also and all the Elders can bear me witness. It was, too, from them that I received letters to the brethren in Damascus, and I was already on my way to Damascus, intending to bring those also who had fled there, in chains to Jerusalem, to be punished.

wmth@Acts:22:8 @ »`Who art thou, Lord?' I asked.« `I am Jesus, the Nazarene,' He replied, `whom you are persecuting.'

wmth@Acts:22:9 @ »Now the men who were with me, though they saw the light, did not hear the words of Him who spoke to me.«

wmth@Acts:22:11 @ »And as I could not see because the light had been so dazzling, those who were with me had to lead me by the arm, and so I came to Damascus.«

wmth@Acts:22:12 @ »And a certain Ananias, a pious man who obeyed the Law and bore a good character with all the Jews of the city,

wmth@Acts:22:19 @ »`Lord,' I replied, `they themselves well know how active I was in imprisoning, and in flogging in synagogue after synagogue those who believe in Thee;«

wmth@Acts:22:20 @ and when they were shedding the blood of Stephen, Thy witness, I was standing by, fully approving of it, and I held the clothes of those who were killing him.'

wmth@Acts:22:25 @ But, when they had tied him up with the straps, Paul said to the Captain who stood by, »Does the Law permit you to flog a Roman citizen–and one too who is uncondemned?«

wmth@Acts:22:29 @ So the men who had been on the point of putting him under torture immediately left him. And the Tribune, too, was frightened when he learnt that Paul was a Roman citizen, for he had had him bound.

wmth@Acts:23:2 @ On hearing this the High Priest Ananias ordered those who were standing near Paul to strike him on the mouth.

wmth@Acts:23:4 @ »Do you rail at God's High Priest?« cried the men who stood by him.

wmth@Acts:23:13 @ There were more than forty of them who bound themselves by this oath.

wmth@Acts:23:21 @ I beg you not to comply; for more than forty men among them are lying in wait for him, who have solemnly vowed that they will neither eat nor drink till they have assassinated him; and even now they are ready, in anticipation of receiving that promise of you.«

wmth@Acts:24:22 @ At this point Felix, who was fairly well informed about the new faith, adjourned the trial, saying to the Jews, »When the Tribune Lysias comes down, I will enter carefully into the matter.«

wmth@Acts:25:5 @ »Therefore let those of you,« he said, »who can come, go down with me, and impeach the man, if there is anything amiss in him.«

wmth@Acts:25:7 @ Upon Paul's arrival, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood round him, and brought many grave charges against him which they were unable to substantiate.

wmth@Acts:25:14 @ and, during their rather long stay, Festus laid Paul's case before the king. »There is a man here,« he said, »whom Felix left a prisoner,

wmth@Acts:25:15 @ about whom, when I went to Jerusalem, the High Priests and the Elders of the Jews made representations to me, begging that sentence might be pronounced against him.

wmth@Acts:25:19 @ But they quarrelled with him about certain matters connected with their own religion, and about one Jesus who had died, but –so Paul persistently maintained– is now alive.

wmth@Acts:25:24 @ Then Festus said, »King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see here the man about whom the whole nation of the Jews made suit to me, both in Jerusalem and here, crying out that he ought not to live any longer.

wmth@Acts:26:3 @ who are so familiar with all the customs and speculations that prevail among the Jews; and for this reason, I pray you, give me a patient hearing.

wmth@Acts:26:13 @ and on the journey, at noon, Sir, I saw a light from Heaven –brighter than the brightness of the sun– shining around me and around those who were travelling with me.«

wmth@Acts:26:15 @ »`Who art Thou, Lord?' I asked.« `I am Jesus whom you are persecuting,' the Lord replied.

wmth@Acts:26:17 @ I will save you from the Jewish people and from the Gentiles, to whom I send you to open their eyes,

wmth@Acts:26:18 @ that they may turn from darkness to light and from the obedience to Satan to God, in order to receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified through faith in Me.'

wmth@Acts:26:26 @ For the King, to whom I speak freely, knows about these matters. I am not to be persuaded that any detail of them has escaped his notice; for these things have not been done in a corner.

wmth@Acts:26:29 @ »My prayer to God, whether briefly or at length,« replied Paul, »would be that not only you but all who are my hearers to-day, might become such as I am–except these chains.«

wmth@Acts:26:30 @ So the King rose, and the Governor, and Bernice, and those who were sitting with them;

wmth@Acts:27:5 @ and, sailing the whole length of the sea that lies off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we reached Myra in Lycia.

wmth@Acts:27:23 @ For there stood by my side, last night, an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom also I worship,

wmth@Acts:27:24 @ and he said, »`Dismiss all fear, Paul, for you must stand before Caesar; and God has granted you the lives of all who are sailing with you.'

wmth@Acts:27:43 @ But their Captain, bent on securing Paul's safety, kept them from their purpose and gave orders that those who could swim should first jump overboard and get to land;

wmth@Acts:28:7 @ Now in the same part of the island there were estates belonging to the Governor, whose name was Publius. He welcomed us to his house, and for three days generously made us his guests.

wmth@Acts:28:14 @ Here we found brethren, who invited us to remain with them for a week; and so we reached Rome.

wmth@Acts:28:20 @ For these reasons, then, I have invited you here, that I might see you and speak to you; for it is for the sake of Him who is the hope of Israel that this chain hangs upon me.«

wmth@Acts:28:23 @ So they arranged a day with him and came to him in considerable numbers at the house of the friends who were entertaining him. And then, with solemn earnestness, he explained to them the subject of the Kingdom of God, endeavouring from morning till evening to convince them about Jesus, both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.

wmth@Acts:28:30 @ After this Paul lived for fully two years in a hired house of his own, receiving all who came to see him.

wmth@Romans:1:3 @ who, as regards His human descent, belonged to the posterity of David,

wmth@Romans:1:5 @ through whom we have received grace and Apostleship in His service in order to win men to obedience to the faith, among all Gentile peoples,

wmth@Romans:1:6 @ among whom you also, called, as you have been, to belong to Jesus Christ, are numbered:

wmth@Romans:1:7 @ To all God's loved ones who are in Rome, called to be saints. May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

wmth@Romans:1:8 @ First of all, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for what He has done for all of you; for the report of your faith is spreading through the whole world.

wmth@Romans:1:9 @ I call God to witness –to whom I render priestly and spiritual service by telling the Good News about His Son– how unceasingly I make mention of you in His presence,

wmth@Romans:1:15 @ so that for my part I am willing and eager to proclaim the Good News to you also who are in Rome.

wmth@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the Good News. It is God's power which is at work for the salvation of every one who believes–the Jew first, and then the Gentile.

wmth@Romans:1:18 @ For God's anger is being revealed from Heaven against all impiety and against the iniquity of men who through iniquity suppress the truth. God is angry:

wmth@Romans:1:25 @ For they had bartered the reality of God for what is unreal, and had offered divine honours and religious service to created things, rather than to the Creator–He who is for ever blessed. Amen.

wmth@Romans:1:32 @ In short, though knowing full well the sentence which God pronounces against actions such as theirs, as things which deserve death, they not only practise them, but even encourage and applaud others who do them.

wmth@Romans:2:1 @ You are therefore without excuse, O man, whoever you are who sit in judgement upon others. For when you pass judgement on your fellow man, you condemn yourself; for you who sit in judgement upon others are guilty of the same misdeeds;

wmth@Romans:2:2 @ and we know that God's judgement against those who commit such sins is in accordance with the truth.

wmth@Romans:2:3 @ And you who pronounce judgement upon those who do such things although your own conduct is the same as theirs–do you imagine that you yourself will escape unpunished when God judges?

wmth@Romans:2:7 @ to those on the one hand who, by lives of persistent right-doing, are striving for glory, honour and immortality, the Life of the Ages;

wmth@Romans:2:8 @ while on the other hand upon the self-willed who disobey the truth and obey unrighteousness will fall anger and fury, affliction and awful distress,

wmth@Romans:2:9 @ coming upon the soul of every man and woman who deliberately does wrong–upon the Jew first, and then upon the Gentile;

wmth@Romans:2:10 @ whereas glory, honour and peace will be given to every one who does what is good and right–to the Jew first and then to the Gentile.

wmth@Romans:2:12 @ For all who have sinned apart from the Law will also perish apart from the Law, and all who have sinned whilst living under the Law, will be judged by the Law.

wmth@Romans:2:13 @ It is not those that merely hear the Law read who are righteous in the sight of God, but it is those that obey the Law who will be pronounced righteous.

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

wmth@Romans:2:18 @ and know the supreme will, and can test things that differ –being a man who receives instruction from the Law–

wmth@Romans:2:19 @ and have persuaded yourself that, as for you, you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

wmth@Romans:2:21 @ you then who teach your fellow man, do you refuse to teach yourself? You who cry out against stealing, are you yourself a thief?

wmth@Romans:2:22 @ You who forbid adultery, do you commit adultery? You who loathe idols, do you plunder their temples?

wmth@Romans:2:23 @ You who make your boast in the Law, do you offend against its commands and so dishonour God?

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

wmth@Romans:2:28 @ For the true Jew is not the man who is simply a Jew outwardly, and true circumcision is not that which is outward and bodily.

wmth@Romans:3:8 @ And why should we not say –for so they wickedly misrepresent us, and so some charge us with arguing– »Let us do evil that good may come«? The condemnation of those who would so argue is just.

wmth@Romans:3:11 @ There is not one who is really wise, nor one who is a diligent seeker after God.

wmth@Romans:3:12 @ All have turned aside from the right path; they have every one of them become corrupt. There is no one who does what is right–no, not so much as one.«

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

wmth@Romans:3:22 @ a righteousness coming from God, which depends on faith in Jesus Christ and extends to all who believe. No distinction is made;

wmth@Romans:3:25 @ He it is whom God put forward as a Mercy-seat, rendered efficacious through faith in His blood, in order to demonstrate His righteousness – because of the passing over, in God's forbearance, of the sins previously committed–

wmth@Romans:3:26 @ with a view to demonstrating, at the present time, His righteousness, that He may be shown to be righteous Himself, and the giver of righteousness to those who believe in Jesus.

wmth@Romans:3:30 @ unless you can deny that it is one and the same God who will pronounce the circumcised to be acquitted on the ground of faith, and the uncircumcised to be acquitted through the same faith.

wmth@Romans:4:4 @ But in the case of a man who works, pay is not reckoned a favour but a debt;

wmth@Romans:4:5 @ whereas in the case of a man who pleads no actions of his own, but simply believes in Him who declares the ungodly free from guilt, his faith is placed to his credit as righteousness.

wmth@Romans:4:6 @ In this way David also tells of the blessedness of the man to whose credit God places righteousness, apart from his actions.

wmth@Romans:4:11 @ Before, not after. And he received circumcision as a sign, a mark attesting the reality of the faith-righteousness which was his while still uncircumcised, that he might be the forefather of all those who believe even though they are uncircumcised–in order that this righteousness might be placed to their credit;

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

wmth@Romans:4:14 @ For if it is the righteous through Law who are heirs, then faith is useless and the promise counts for nothing.

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

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

wmth@Romans:4:25 @ who was surrendered to death because of the offences we had committed, and was raised to life because of the acquittal secured for us.

wmth@Romans:5:2 @ through whom also, as the result of faith, we have obtained an introduction into that state of favour with God in which we stand, and we exult in hope of some day sharing in God's glory.

wmth@Romans:5:5 @ and that this hope never disappoints, because God's love for us floods our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

wmth@Romans:5:11 @ And not only so, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now obtained that reconciliation.

wmth@Romans:5:14 @ Yet Death reigned as king from Adam to Moses even over those who had not sinned, as Adam did, against Law. And in Adam we have a type of Him whose coming was still future.

wmth@Romans:5:17 @ For if, through the transgression of the one individual, Death made use of the one individual to seize the sovereignty, all the more shall those who receive God's overflowing grace and gift of righteousness reign as kings in Life through the one individual, Jesus Christ.

wmth@Romans:5:18 @ It follows then that just as the result of a single transgression is a condemnation which extends to the whole race, so also the result of a single decree of righteousness is a life-giving acquittal which extends to the whole race.

wmth@Romans:6:2 @ No, indeed; how shall we who have died to sin, live in it any longer?

wmth@Romans:6:3 @ And do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?

wmth@Romans:6:7 @ for he who has paid the penalty of death stands absolved from his sin.

wmth@Romans:6:13 @ and no longer lend your faculties as unrighteous weapons for Sin to use. On the contrary surrender your very selves to God as living men who have risen from the dead, and surrender your several faculties to God, to be used as weapons to maintain the right.

wmth@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that if you surrender yourselves as bondservants to obey any one, you become the bondservants of him whom you obey, whether the bondservants of Sin (with death as the result) or of Duty (resulting in righteousness)?

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

wmth@Romans:7:4 @ So, my brethren, to you also the Law died through the incarnation of Christ, that you might be wedded to Another, namely to Him who rose from the dead in order that we might yield fruit to God.

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

wmth@Romans:7:24 @ (Unhappy man that I am! who will rescue me from this death-burdened body?

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

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

wmth@Romans:8:11 @ And if the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead is dwelling in you, He who raised up Christ from the dead will give Life also to your mortal bodies because of His Spirit who dwells in you.

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

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

wmth@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that the whole of Creation is groaning together in the pains of childbirth until this hour.

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

wmth@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom He has known beforehand He has also pre-destined to bear the likeness of His Son, that He might be the Eldest in a vast family of brothers;

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

wmth@Romans:8:31 @ What then shall we say to this? If God is on our side, who is there to appear against us?

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

wmth@Romans:8:33 @ Who shall impeach those whom God has chosen? God declares them free from guilt.

wmth@Romans:8:34 @ Who is there to condemn them? Christ Jesus died, or rather has risen to life again. He is also at the right hand of God, and is interceding for us.

wmth@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from Christ's love? Shall affliction or distress, persecution or hunger, nakedness or danger or the sword?

wmth@Romans:8:37 @ Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who has loved us.

wmth@Romans:9:5 @ To them the Patriarchs belong, and from them in respect of His human lineage came the Christ, who is exalted above all, God blessed throughout the Ages. Amen.

wmth@Romans:9:6 @ Not however that God's word has failed; for all who have sprung from Israel do not count as Israel,

wmth@Romans:9:8 @ In other words, it is not the children by natural descent who count as God's children, but the children made such by the promise are regarded as Abraham's posterity.

wmth@Romans:9:11 @ and even then, though they were not then born and had not done anything either good or evil, yet in order that God's electing purpose might not be frustrated, based, as it was, not on their actions but on the will of Him who called them, she was told,

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

wmth@Romans:9:19 @ »Why then does God still find fault?« you will ask; »for who is resisting His will?«

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

wmth@Romans:9:22 @ And what if God, while choosing to make manifest the terrors of His anger and to show what is possible with Him, has yet borne with long-forbearing patience with the subjects of His anger who stand ready for destruction,

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

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

wmth@Romans:9:30 @ To what conclusion does this bring us? Why, that the Gentiles, who were not in pursuit of righteousness, have overtaken it–a righteousness, however, which arises from faith;

wmth@Romans:9:31 @ while the descendants of Israel, who were in pursuit of a Law that could give righteousness, have not arrived at one.

wmth@Romans:10:5 @ Moses says that he whose actions conform to the righteousness required by the Law shall live by that righteousness.

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

wmth@Romans:10:7 @ »nor `Who shall go down into the abyss?'« –that is, to bring Christ up again from the grave.

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

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

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

wmth@Romans:11:5 @ In the same way also at the present time there has come to be a remnant whom God in His grace has selected.

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

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

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

wmth@Romans:12:8 @ The teacher must do the same in his teaching; and he who exhorts others, in his exhortation. He who gives should be liberal; he who is in authority should be energetic and alert; and he who succours the afflicted should do it cheerfully.

wmth@Romans:12:15 @ Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep.

wmth@Romans:13:1 @ Let every individual be obedient to those who rule over him; for no one is a ruler except by God's permission, and our present rulers have had their rank and power assigned to them by Him.

wmth@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore the man who rebels against his ruler is resisting God's will; and those who thus resist will bring punishment upon themselves.

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

wmth@Romans:13:8 @ Owe nothing to any one except mutual love; for he who loves his fellow man has satisfied the demands of Law.

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

wmth@Romans:14:3 @ Let not him who eats certain food look down upon him who abstains from it, nor him who abstains from it find fault with him who eats it; for God has received both of them.

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

wmth@Romans:14:6 @ He who regards the day as sacred, so regards it for the Master's sake; and he who eats certain food eats it for the Master's sake, for he gives thanks to God; and he who refrains from eating it refrains for the Master's sake, and he also gives thanks to God.

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

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

wmth@Romans:14:18 @ and whoever in this way devotedly serves Christ, God takes pleasure in him, and men highly commend him.

wmth@Romans:14:22 @ As for you and your faith, keep your faith to yourself in the presence of God. The man is to be congratulated who does not pronounce judgement on himself in what his actions sanction.

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

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

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

wmth@Romans:15:31 @ asking that I may escape unhurt from those in Judaea who are disobedient, and that the service which I am going to Jerusalem to render may be well received by the Church there,

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

wmth@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference too between a married and an unmarried woman. She who is unmarried concerns herself with the Lord's business –that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but the married woman concerns herself with the business of the world– how she shall please her husband.

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

wmth@Ephesians:1:12 @ so that we should be devoted to the extolling of His glorious attributes–we who were the first to fix our hopes on Christ.

wmth@Ephesians:1:23 @ the completeness of Him who everywhere fills the universe with Himself.

wmth@Ephesians:2:1 @ To you Gentiles also, who were dead through your offences and sins,

wmth@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore, do not forget that formerly you were Gentiles as to your bodily condition. You were called the Uncircumcision by those who style themselves the Circumcised–their circumcision being one which the knife has effected.

wmth@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who once were so far away have been brought near through the death of Christ.

wmth@Ephesians:2:14 @ For He is our peace–He who has made Jews and Gentiles one, and in His own human nature has broken down the hostile dividing wall,

wmth@Ephesians:2:17 @ So He came and proclaimed good news of peace to you who were so far away, and peace to those who were near;

wmth@Ephesians:2:21 @ in union with whom the whole fabric, fitted and closely joined together, is growing so as to form a holy sanctuary in the Lord;

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

wmth@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me who am less than the least of all God's people has this work been graciously entrusted–to proclaim to the Gentiles the Good News of the exhaustless wealth of Christ,

wmth@Ephesians:3:12 @ in whom we have this bold and confident access through our faith in Him.

wmth@Ephesians:3:15 @ from whom the whole family in Heaven and on earth derives its name,

wmth@Ephesians:3:20 @ Now to Him who, in exercise of His power that is at work within us, is able to do infinitely beyond all our highest prayers or thoughts–

wmth@Ephesians:4:1 @ I, then, the prisoner for the Master's sake, entreat you to live and act as becomes those who have received the call that you have received–

wmth@Ephesians:4:6 @ and one God and Father of all, who rules over all, acts through all, and dwells in all.

wmth@Ephesians:4:10 @ He who descended is the same as He who ascended again far above all the Heavens in order to fill the universe.)

wmth@Ephesians:4:15 @ But we shall lovingly hold to the truth, and shall in all respects grow up into union with Him who is our Head, even Christ.

wmth@Ephesians:4:16 @ Dependent on Him, the whole body –its various parts closely fitting and firmly adhering to one another– grows by the aid of every contributory link, with power proportioned to the need of each individual part, so as to build itself up in a spirit of love.

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

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

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

wmth@Ephesians:5:28 @ So too married men ought to love their wives as much as they love themselves. He who loves his wife loves himself.

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

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

wmth@Ephesians:6:24 @ May grace be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with perfect sincerity.

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

wmth@Philippians:1:6 @ For of this I am confident, that He who has begun a good work within you will go on to perfect it in preparation for the day of Jesus Christ.

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

wmth@Philippians:2:13 @ For it is God Himself whose power creates within you the desire to do His gracious will and also brings about the accomplishment of the desire.

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

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

wmth@Philippians:2:25 @ Yet I deem it important to send Epaphroditus to you now–he is my brother and comrade both in labour and in arms, and is your messenger who has ministered to my needs.

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

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

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

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

wmth@Philippians:3:21 @ who, in the exercise of the power which He has even to subject all things to Himself, will transform this body of our humiliation until it resembles His own glorious body.

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

wmth@Philippians:4:9 @ The doctrines and the line of conduct which I taught you –both what you heard and what you saw in me– hold fast to them; and God who gives peace will be with you.

wmth@Philippians:4:13 @ I have strength for anything through Him who gives me power.

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

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

wmth@Colossians:1:6 @ For it has reached you, and remains with you, just as it has also spread through the whole world, yielding fruit there and increasing, as it has done among you from the day when first you heard it and came really to know the grace of God,

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

wmth@Colossians:1:13 @ It is God who has delivered us out of the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us into the Kingdom of His dearly-loved Son,

wmth@Colossians:1:14 @ in whom we have our redemption–the forgiveness of our sins.

wmth@Colossians:1:17 @ And HE IS before all things and in and through Him the universe is a harmonious whole.

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

wmth@Colossians:1:27 @ to whom it was His will to make known how vast a wealth of glory for the Gentile world is implied in this truth–the truth that `Christ is in you, the hope of glory.'

wmth@Colossians:1:29 @ To this end, like an earnest wrestler, I exert all my strength in reliance upon the power of Him who is mightily at work within me.

wmth@Colossians:2:1 @ For I would have you know in how severe a struggle I am engaged on behalf of you and the brethren in Laodicea and of all who have not known me personally,

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

wmth@Colossians:4:9 @ And with him I send our dear and trusty brother Onesimus, who is one of yourselves. They will inform you of everything here.

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

wmth@Colossians:4:12 @ Epaphras, who is one of yourselves, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, sends greetings to you, always wrestling on your behalf in his prayers, that you may stand firm–Christians of ripe character and of clear conviction as to everything which is God's will.

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

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ that each man among you shall know how to procure a wife who shall be his own in purity and honour;

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ that you be not overmastered by lustful cravings, like the Gentiles who have no knowledge of God;

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ Now, concerning those who from time to time pass away, we would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, lest you should mourn as others do who have no hope.

wmth@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we believe that Jesus has died and risen again, we also believe that, through Jesus, God will bring with Him those who shall have passed away.

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

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

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

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ And may God Himself who gives peace, make you entirely holy; and may your spirits, souls and bodies be preserved complete and be found blameless at the Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wmth@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ Faithful is He who calls you, and He will also perfect His work.

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

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

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

wmth@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ and then the Lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will sweep away with the tempest of His anger, and utterly overwhelm by the awful splendour of His Coming.

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

wmth@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be delivered from wrong-headed and wicked men; for it is not everybody who has faith.

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

wmth@1Timothy:1:12 @ I am thankful to Him who made me strong –even Christ Jesus our Lord– because He has judged me to be faithful and has put me into His service,

wmth@1Timothy:1:15 @ Faithful is the saying, and deserving of universal acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; among whom I stand foremost.

wmth@1Timothy:1:16 @ But mercy was shown me in order that in me as the foremost of sinners Christ Jesus might display the fulness of His long-suffering patience as an example to encourage those who would afterwards be resting their faith on Him with a view to the Life of the Ages.

wmth@1Timothy:1:17 @ Now to the immortal and invisible King of the Ages, who alone is God, be honour and glory to the Ages of the Ages! Amen.

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

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

wmth@1Timothy:2:4 @ who is willing for all mankind to be saved and come to a full knowledge of the truth.

wmth@1Timothy:2:6 @ who gave Himself as the redemption price for all–a fact testified to at its own appointed time,

wmth@1Timothy:4:3 @ forbidding people to marry, and insisting on abstinence from foods which God has created to be partaken of, with thankfulness, by those who believe and have a clear knowledge of the truth.

wmth@1Timothy:4:10 @ and here is the motive of our toiling and wrestling, because we have our hopes fixed on the ever-living God, who is the Saviour of all mankind, and especially of believers.

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

wmth@1Timothy:5:5 @ A widow who is really in need, friendless and desolate, has her hopes fixed on God, and continues at her supplications and prayers, night and day;

wmth@1Timothy:5:9 @ No widow is to be put on the roll who is under sixty years of age.

wmth@1Timothy:5:16 @ If a believing woman has widows dependent on her, she should relieve their wants, and save the Church from being burdened–so that the Church may relieve the widows who are really in need.

wmth@1Timothy:5:17 @ Let the Elders who perform their duties wisely and well be held worthy of double honour, especially those who labour in preaching and teaching.

wmth@1Timothy:5:20 @ Those who persist in sin reprove in the presence of all, so that it may also be a warning to the rest.

wmth@1Timothy:6:1 @ Let all who are under the yoke of slavery hold their own masters to be deserving of honour, so that the name of God and the Christian teaching may not be spoken against.

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

wmth@1Timothy:6:3 @ So teach and exhort. If any one is a teacher of any other kind of doctrine, and refuses assent to wholesome instructions –those of our Lord Jesus Christ– and the teaching that harmonizes with true godliness,

wmth@1Timothy:6:5 @ and persistent wranglings on the part of people whose intellects are disordered and they themselves blinded to all knowledge of the truth; who imagine that godliness means gain.

wmth@1Timothy:6:9 @ But people who are determined to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many unwise and pernicious ways which sink mankind in destruction and ruin.

wmth@1Timothy:6:13 @ I charge you –as in the presence of God who gives life to all creatures, and of Christ Jesus who at the bar of Pontius Pilate made a noble profession of faith–

wmth@1Timothy:6:16 @ who alone possesses immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, and whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be eternal honour and power! Amen.

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

wmth@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience –as my forefathers did– that night and day I unceasingly remember you in my prayers,

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

wmth@2Timothy:2:16 @ But from irreligious and frivolous talk hold aloof, for those who indulge in it will proceed from bad to worse in impiety,

wmth@2Timothy:2:22 @ Keep a strong curb, however, on your youthful cravings; and strive for integrity, good faith, love, peace, in company with all who pray to the Lord with pure hearts.

wmth@2Timothy:3:6 @ Among them are included the men who make their way into private houses and carry off weak women as their prisoners–women who, weighed down by the burden of their sins, are led by ever-changing caprice,

wmth@2Timothy:3:12 @ And indeed every one who is determined to live a godly life as a follower of Christ Jesus will be persecuted.

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

wmth@2Timothy:4:1 @ I solemnly implore you, in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is about to judge the living and the dead, and by His Appearing and His Kingship:

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

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

wmth@Philemon:1:15 @ For perhaps it was for this reason he was parted from you for a time, that you might receive him back wholly and for ever yours;

wmth@Hebrews:1:1 @ God, who in ancient days spoke to our forefathers in many distinct messages and by various methods through the Prophets,

wmth@Hebrews:1:2 @ has at the end of these days spoken to us through a Son, who is the pre-destined Lord of the universe, and through whom He made the Ages.

wmth@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are not all angels spirits that serve Him–whom He sends out to render service for the benefit of those who, before long, will inherit salvation?

wmth@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall escape if we are indifferent to a salvation as great as that now offered to us? This, after having first of all been announced by the Lord Himself, had its truth made sure to us by those who heard Him,

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

wmth@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it was fitting that He for whom, and through whom, all things exist, after He had brought many sons to glory, should perfect by suffering the Prince Leader who had saved them.

wmth@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both He who sanctifies and those whom He is sanctifying have all one Father; and for this reason He is not ashamed to speak of them as His brothers;

wmth@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since then the children referred to are all alike sharers in perishable human nature, He Himself also, in the same way, took on Him a share of it, in order that through death He might render powerless him who had authority over death, that is, the Devil,

wmth@Hebrews:2:15 @ and might set at liberty all those who through fear of death had been subject to lifelong slavery.

wmth@Hebrews:2:18 @ For inasmuch as He has Himself felt the pain of temptation and trial, He is also able instantly to help those who are tempted and tried.

wmth@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brethren, sharers with others in a heavenly invitation, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest whose followers we profess to be.

wmth@Hebrews:3:2 @ How faithful He was to Him who appointed Him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house!

wmth@Hebrews:3:3 @ For Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, in so far as he who has built a house has higher honour than the house itself.

wmth@Hebrews:3:16 @ For who were they that heard, and yet provoked God? Was it not the whole of the people who had come out of Egypt under the leadership of Moses?

wmth@Hebrews:3:17 @ And with whom was God so greatly grieved for forty years? Was it not with those who had sinned, and whose dead bodies fell in the Desert?

wmth@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did He swear that they should not be admitted to His rest, if it was not to those who were disobedient?

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

wmth@Hebrews:4:3 @ We who have believed are soon to be admitted to the true rest; as He has said, although God's works had been going on ever since the creation of the world.

wmth@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since, then, it is still true that some will be admitted to that rest, and that because of disobedience those who formerly had Good News proclaimed to them were not admitted,

wmth@Hebrews:4:10 @ For He who has been admitted to His rest, has rested from His works as God did from His.

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

wmth@Hebrews:4:14 @ Inasmuch, then, as we have in Jesus, the Son of God, a great High Priest who has passed into Heaven itself, let us hold firmly to our profession of faith.

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

wmth@Hebrews:5:2 @ and must be one who is able to bear patiently with the ignorant and erring, because he himself also is beset with infirmity.

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

wmth@Hebrews:5:7 @ For Jesus during his earthly life offered up prayers and entreaties, crying aloud and weeping as He pleaded with Him who was able to bring Him in safety out of death, and He was delivered from the terror from which He shrank.

wmth@Hebrews:5:9 @ and so, having been made perfect, He became to all who obey Him the source and giver of eternal salvation.

wmth@Hebrews:5:13 @ By people who live on milk I mean those who are imperfectly acquainted with the teaching concerning righteousness.

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

wmth@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once for all been enlightened, and have tasted the sweetness of the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit,

wmth@Hebrews:6:7 @ For land which has drunk in the rain that often falls upon it, and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sakes, indeed, it is tilled, has a share in God's blessing.

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

wmth@Hebrews:6:18 @ He added an oath, in order that, through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for Him to prove false, we may possess mighty encouragement–we who, for safety, have hastened to lay hold of the hope set before us.

wmth@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this man, Melchizedek, King of Salem and priest of the Most High God –he who when Abraham was returning after defeating the kings met him and pronounced a blessing on him–

wmth@Hebrews:7:2 @ to whom also Abraham presented a tenth part of all–being first, as his name signifies, King of righteousness, and secondly King of Salem, that is, King of peace:

wmth@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now think how great this priest-king must have been to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth part of the best of the spoil.

wmth@Hebrews:7:5 @ And those of the descendants of Levi who receive the priesthood are authorized by the Law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these have sprung from Abraham.

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

wmth@Hebrews:7:7 @ And beyond all dispute it is always the inferior who is blessed by the superior.

wmth@Hebrews:7:8 @ Moreover here frail mortal men receive tithes: there one receives them about whom there is evidence that he is alive.

wmth@Hebrews:7:13 @ He, however, to whom that prophecy refers is associated with a different tribe, not one member of which has anything to do with the altar.

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

wmth@Hebrews:7:25 @ Hence too He is able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, seeing that He ever lives to plead for them.

wmth@Hebrews:7:27 @ who, unlike other High Priests, is not under the necessity of offering up sacrifices day after day, first for His own sins, and afterwards for those of the people; for this latter thing He did once for all when He offered up Himself.

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

wmth@Hebrews:8:1 @ Now in connexion with what we have been saying the chief point is that we have a High Priest who has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of God's Majesty in the heavens,

wmth@Hebrews:8:4 @ If then He were still on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since here there are already those who present the offerings in obedience to the Law,

wmth@Hebrews:9:9 @ And this is a figure –for the time now present– answering to which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, unable though they are to give complete freedom from sin to him who ministers.

wmth@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have contracted defilement make them holy so as to bring about ceremonial purity,

wmth@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more certainly shall the blood of Christ, who strengthened by the eternal Spirit offered Himself to God, free from blemish, purify your consciences from lifeless works for you to serve the ever-living God?

wmth@Hebrews:9:15 @ And because of this He is the negotiator of a new Covenant, in order that, since a life has been given in atonement for the offences committed under the first Covenant, those who have been called may receive the eternal inheritance which has been promised to them.

wmth@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a legal `will,' there must also be a death brought forward in evidence–the death of him who made it.

wmth@Hebrews:9:17 @ And a will is only of force in the case of a deceased person, being never of any avail so long as he who made it lives.

wmth@Hebrews:9:28 @ so the Christ also, having been once offered in sacrifice in order that He might bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, separated from sin, to those who are eagerly expecting Him, to make their salvation complete.

wmth@Hebrews:10:1 @ For, since the Law exhibits only an outline of the blessings to come and not a perfect representation of the things themselves, the priests can never, by repeating the same sacrifices which they continually offer year after year, give complete freedom from sin to those who draw near.

wmth@Hebrews:10:2 @ For then would not the sacrifices have ceased to be offered, because the consciences of the worshippers –who in that case would now have been cleansed once for all– would no longer be burdened with sins?

wmth@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by a single offering He has for ever completed the blessing for those whom He is setting free from sin.

wmth@Hebrews:10:21 @ and since we have a great Priest who has authority over the house of God,

wmth@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold firmly to an unflinching avowal of our hope, for He is faithful who gave us the promises.

wmth@Hebrews:10:28 @ Any one who bids defiance to the Law of Moses is put to death without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

wmth@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much severer punishment, think you, will he be held to deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, has not regarded as holy that Covenant-blood with which he was set free from sin, and has insulted the Spirit from whom comes grace?

wmth@Hebrews:10:30 @ For we know who it is that has said, and again,

wmth@Hebrews:10:33 @ This was partly through allowing yourselves to be made a public spectacle amid reproaches and persecutions, and partly through coming forward to share the sufferings of those who were thus treated.

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

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

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

wmth@Hebrews:11:10 @ for he continually looked forward to the city which has the foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

wmth@Hebrews:11:11 @ Through faith even Sarah herself received strength to become a mother –although she was past the time of life for this– because she judged Him faithful who had given the promise.

wmth@Hebrews:11:14 @ for men who acknowledge this make it manifest that they are seeking elsewhere a country of their own.

wmth@Hebrews:11:17 @ Through faith Abraham, as soon as God put him to the test, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had joyfully welcomed the promises was on the point of sacrificing his only son

wmth@Hebrews:11:18 @ with regard to whom he had been told,

wmth@Hebrews:11:33 @ men who, as the result of faith, conquered whole kingdoms, brought about true justice, obtained promises from God, stopped lions' mouths,

wmth@Hebrews:11:38 @ (They were men of whom the world was not worthy.) They wandered across deserts and mountains, or hid themselves in caves and in holes in the ground.

wmth@Hebrews:12:2 @ simply fixing our gaze upon Jesus, our Prince Leader in the faith, who will also award us the prize. He, for the sake of the joy which lay before Him, patiently endured the cross, looking with contempt upon its shame, and afterwards seated Himself – where He still sits– at the right hand of the throne of God.

wmth@Hebrews:12:3 @ Therefore, if you would escape becoming weary and faint-hearted, compare your own sufferings with those of Him who endured such hostility directed against Him by sinners.

wmth@Hebrews:12:7 @ The sufferings that you are enduring are for your discipline. God is dealing with you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

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

wmth@Hebrews:12:15 @ Be carefully on your guard lest there be any one who falls back from the grace of God; lest any root bearing bitter fruit spring up and cause trouble among you, and through it the whole brotherhood be defiled;

wmth@Hebrews:12:16 @ lest there be a fornicator, or an ungodly person like Esau, who, in return for a single meal, parted with the birthright which belonged to him.

wmth@Hebrews:12:19 @ a sound of such a kind that those who heard it entreated that no more should be added.

wmth@Hebrews:12:23 @ to the great festal gathering and Church of the first-born, whose names are recorded in Heaven, and to a Judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of righteous men made perfect,

wmth@Hebrews:12:25 @ Be careful not to refuse to listen to Him who is speaking to you. For if they of old did not escape unpunished when they refused to listen to him who spoke on earth, much less shall we escape who turn a deaf ear to Him who now speaks from Heaven.

wmth@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your former leaders–it was they who brought you God's Message. Bear in mind how they ended their lives, and imitate their faith.

wmth@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not be drawn aside by all sorts of strange teaching; for it is well to have the heart made stedfast through God's grace, and not by special kinds of food, from which those who scrupulously attend to them have derived no benefit.

wmth@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and be submissive to them. For they are keeping watch over your souls as those who will have to give account; that they may do this with joy and not with lamentation. For that would be of no advantage to you.

wmth@Hebrews:13:20 @ Now may God who gives peace, and brought Jesus, our Lord, up again from among the dead –even Him who, by virtue of the blood of the eternal Covenant, is the great Shepherd of the sheep–

wmth@James:1:5 @ And if any one of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask God for it, who gives with open hand to all men, and without upbraiding; and it will be given him.

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

wmth@James:1:12 @ Blessed is he who patiently endures trials; for when he has stood the test, he will gain the victor's crown –even the crown of Life– which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

wmth@James:1:17 @ Every gift which is good, and every perfect boon, is from above, and comes down from the Father, who is the source of all Light. In Him there is no variation nor the slightest suggestion of change.

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

wmth@James:3:2 @ For we often stumble and fall, all of us. If there is any one who never stumbles in speech, that man has reached maturity of character and is able to curb his whole nature.

wmth@James:3:3 @ Remember that we put the horses' bit into their mouths to make them obey us, and so we turn their whole bodies round.

wmth@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire. That world of iniquity, the tongue, is placed within us spotting and soiling our whole nature, and setting the whole round of our lives on fire, being itself set on fire by Gehenna.

wmth@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and make your hearts pure, you who are half-hearted towards God.

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

wmth@James:5:10 @ In illustration, brethren, of persecution patiently endured take the Prophets who have spoken as messengers from the Lord.

wmth@James:5:11 @ Remember that we call those blessed who endured what they did. You have also heard of Job's patient endurance, and have seen the issue of the Lord's dealings with him–how full of tenderness and pity the Lord is.

wmth@1Peter:1:5 @ whom God in His power is guarding through faith for a salvation that even now stands ready for unveiling at the End of the Age.

wmth@1Peter:1:10 @ There were Prophets who earnestly inquired about that salvation, and closely searched into it–even those who spoke beforehand of the grace which was to come to you.

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

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

wmth@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you address as your Father Him who judges impartially in accordance with each man's actions, then spend in fear the time of your stay here on earth,

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

wmth@1Peter:1:21 @ are faithful to God, who raised Him from among the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are resting upon God.

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

wmth@1Peter:3:5 @ For in ancient times also this was the way the holy women who set their hopes upon God used to adorn themselves, being submissive to their husbands.

wmth@1Peter:3:13 @ And who will be able to harm you, if you show yourselves zealous for that which is good?

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

wmth@1Peter:4:1 @ Since, then, Christ has suffered in the flesh, you also must arm yourselves with a determination to do the same –because he who has suffered in the flesh has done with sin–

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

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

wmth@1Peter:4:11 @ If any one preaches, let it be as uttering God's truth; if any one renders a service to others, let it be in the strength which God supplies; so that in everything glory may be given to God in the name of Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the might to the Ages of the Ages. Amen.

wmth@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgement to begin, and to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who reject God's Good News?

wmth@1John:3:4 @ Every one who is guilty of sin is also guilty of violating Law; for sin is the violation of Law.

wmth@1John:3:6 @ No one who continues in union with Him lives in sin: no one who lives in sin has seen Him or knows Him.

wmth@1John:3:7 @ Dear children, let no one lead you astray. The man who acts righteously is righteous, just as He is righteous.

wmth@1John:3:8 @ He who is habitually guilty of sin is a child of the Devil, because the Devil has been a sinner from the very beginning. The Son of God appeared for the purpose of undoing the work of the Devil.

wmth@1John:3:9 @ No one who is a child of God is habitually guilty of sin. A God-given germ of life remains in him, and he cannot habitually sin–because he is a child of God.

wmth@1John:3:10 @ By this we can distinguish God's children and the Devil's children: no one who fails to act righteously is a child of God, nor he who does not love his brother man.

wmth@1John:3:12 @ We are not to resemble Cain, who was a child of the Evil one and killed his own brother. And why did he kill him? Because his own actions were wicked and his brother's actions righteous.

wmth@1John:3:14 @ As for us, we know that we have already passed out of death into Life–because we love our brother men. He who is destitute of love continues dead.

wmth@1John:4:3 @ and that no spirit is from God which does not acknowledge this about Jesus. Such is the spirit of the anti-Christ; of whose coming you have heard, and it is already in the world.

wmth@1John:4:4 @ As for you, dear children, you are God's children, and have successfully resisted them; for greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

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

wmth@1John:4:7 @ Dear friends, let us love one another; for love has its origin in God, and every one who loves has become a child of God and is beginning to know God.

wmth@1John:4:8 @ He who is destitute of love has never had any knowledge of God; because God is love.

wmth@1John:4:15 @ Whoever acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God–God continues in union with him, and he continues in union with God.

wmth@1John:4:16 @ And, as for us, we know the love which God has for us, and we confide in it. God is love, and he who continues to love continues in union with God, and God continues in union with him.

wmth@1John:4:20 @ If any one says that he loves God, while he hates his brother man, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother man whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.

wmth@1John:4:21 @ And the command which we have from Him is that he who loves God must love his brother man also.

wmth@1John:5:1 @ Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God; and every one who loves the Father loves also Him who is the Father's Child.

wmth@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees a brother man committing a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask and God shall give him life–for those who do not sin unto death. There is such a thing as sin unto death; for that I do not bid him make request.
