tcent@Matthew:8:21 @ Another of the disciples said to him, »Lord, let me first go and bury my father.«

tcent@Matthew:8:26 @ And he said to them, »Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?« Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.

tcent@Matthew:8:27 @ And the men marveled, saying, »What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?«

tcent@Matthew:8:28 @ When he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men met him, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one could pass that way.

tcent@Matthew:8:30 @ Now a herd of many swine was feeding at some distance from them.

tcent@Matthew:8:31 @ And the demons begged him, »If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of swine.«

tcent@Matthew:9:6 @ But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins«—he then said to the paralytic—»Rise, take up your bed and go home.«

tcent@Matthew:9:9 @ As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, »Follow me.« And he rose and followed him.

tcent@Matthew:9:12 @ But when Jesus heard it, he said, »Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.

tcent@Matthew:9:14 @ Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, »Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?«

tcent@Matthew:9:15 @ And Jesus said to them, »Can the guests of the bridegroom mourn as long as he is with them? The days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.

tcent@Matthew:9:16 @ No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch pulls away from the garment, and the tear is made worse.

tcent@Matthew:9:20 @ And behold, a woman who had suffered from a hemorrhage for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment.

tcent@Matthew:9:26 @ And the report of this went through all that region.

tcent@Matthew:9:27 @ And as Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed him, crying out, »Have mercy on us, Son of David.«

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

tcent@Matthew:9:38 @ Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.«

tcent@Matthew:10:2 @ The names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

tcent@Matthew:10:3 @ Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

tcent@Matthew:10:5 @ These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them: »Do not go among the Gentiles, or enter any town of the Samaritans.

tcent@Matthew:10:6 @ But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

tcent@Matthew:10:7 @ And preach as you go, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’

tcent@Matthew:10:10 @ nor bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor a staff; for the worker is worthy of his food.

tcent@Matthew:10:14 @ And if any one will not receive you or listen to your words, shake off the dust from your feet when you leave that house or town.

tcent@Matthew:10:15 @ Truly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah than for that town.

tcent@Matthew:10:16 @ »Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.

tcent@Matthew:10:17 @ But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and flog you in their synagogues.

tcent@Matthew:10:20 @ for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

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

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

tcent@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father’s will.

tcent@Matthew:10:30 @ But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

tcent@Matthew:10:31 @ Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

tcent@Matthew:10:37 @ He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;

tcent@Matthew:10:38 @ and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.

tcent@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives to one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.«

tcent@Matthew:11:2 @ Now when John heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent word by his disciples

tcent@Matthew:11:6 @ And blessed is he who is not offended because of me.«

tcent@Matthew:11:8 @ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.

tcent@Matthew:11:10 @ For this is he of whom it is written:

tcent@Matthew:11:11 @ Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

tcent@Matthew:11:12 @ From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and men of violence take it by force.

tcent@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is justified by her deeds.«

tcent@Matthew:11:20 @ Then he began to rebuke the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.

tcent@Matthew:11:22 @ But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.

tcent@Matthew:11:24 @ But I tell you that it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you.«

tcent@Matthew:11:25 @ At that time Jesus declared, »I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to babes.

tcent@Matthew:12:1 @ At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. And his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.

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

tcent@Matthew:12:5 @ Or have you not read in the Law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath, and are innocent?

tcent@Matthew:12:8 @ For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.«

tcent@Matthew:12:11 @ He said to them, »What man of you, if he has one sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?

tcent@Matthew:12:12 @ Of how much more value is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.«

tcent@Matthew:12:15 @ Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. And many followed him, and he healed them all,

tcent@Matthew:12:23 @ And all the people were amazed and said, »Could this be the Son of David?«

tcent@Matthew:12:24 @ But when the Pharisees heard this they said, »It is only by Beelzebub, the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons.«

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

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

tcent@Matthew:12:34 @ You brood of vipers! how can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

tcent@Matthew:12:35 @ The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.

tcent@Matthew:12:36 @ But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken.

tcent@Matthew:12:38 @ Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, »Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.«

tcent@Matthew:12:39 @ But he answered them, »An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign; but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

tcent@Matthew:12:40 @ For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

tcent@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here.

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:12:50 @ For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.«

tcent@Matthew:13:1 @ That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the sea.

tcent@Matthew:13:5 @ Some fell on rocky places, where they did not have much soil, and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of soil.

tcent@Matthew:13:11 @ And he answered them, »To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

tcent@Matthew:13:14 @ In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which says:

tcent@Matthew:13:18 @ »Hear then the parable of the sower:

tcent@Matthew:13:19 @ when anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.

tcent@Matthew:13:21 @ yet he has no root in himself, but endures only for a while. And when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he falls away.

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

tcent@Matthew:13:24 @ Another parable he put forth to them, saying: »The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;

tcent@Matthew:13:27 @ And the servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then has it weeds?’

tcent@Matthew:13:31 @ Another parable he put forth to them, saying: »The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field;

tcent@Matthew:13:32 @ it is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.«

tcent@Matthew:13:33 @ He told them another parable: »The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour till it was all leavened.«

tcent@Matthew:13:36 @ Then he left the crowd and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, »Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.«

tcent@Matthew:13:37 @ He answered, »He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man;

tcent@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world, and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,

tcent@Matthew:13:39 @ and the enemy who sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.

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

tcent@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil,

tcent@Matthew:13:42 @ and will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

tcent@Matthew:13:43 @ Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

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

tcent@Matthew:13:45 @ »Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls,

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

tcent@Matthew:13:47 @ »Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind;

tcent@Matthew:13:49 @ So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous

tcent@Matthew:13:50 @ and throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.«

tcent@Matthew:13:52 @ And he said to them, »Therefore every scribe who has been instructed for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old.«

tcent@Matthew:13:57 @ And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, »A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house.«

tcent@Matthew:13:58 @ And he did not do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief.

tcent@Matthew:14:3 @ For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,

tcent@Matthew:14:6 @ But when Herod’s birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod,

tcent@Matthew:14:8 @ Prompted by her mother, she said, »Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.«

tcent@Matthew:14:9 @ And the king was sorry; but, because of his oaths and his guests, he commanded it to be given to her;

tcent@Matthew:14:20 @ And they all ate and were satisfied. And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.

tcent@Matthew:14:25 @ And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.

tcent@Matthew:14:29 @ So he said, »Come«. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.

tcent@Matthew:14:31 @ Jesus immediately reached out his hand and caught him, and said to him, »O you of little faith, why did you doubt?«

tcent@Matthew:14:33 @ Then those who were in the boat worshipped him, saying, »Truly you are the Son of God.«

tcent@Matthew:14:35 @ And when the men of that place recognized him, they sent to all that surrounding region and brought to him all who were sick,

tcent@Matthew:14:36 @ and begged him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched it were made well.

tcent@Matthew:15:2 @ »Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat.«

tcent@Matthew:15:3 @ He answered them, »And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?

tcent@Matthew:15:6 @ he is not to honor his father with it. Thus you have made the word of God of no effect for the sake of your tradition.

tcent@Matthew:15:11 @ not what goes into the mouth defiles a man, but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.«

tcent@Matthew:15:12 @ Then the disciples came and said to him, »Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?«

tcent@Matthew:15:18 @ But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man.

tcent@Matthew:15:19 @ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, fornications, theft, false witness, slander.

tcent@Matthew:15:21 @ And Jesus went away from there and withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.

tcent@Matthew:15:22 @ And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and cried to him, »Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.«

tcent@Matthew:15:24 @ He answered, »I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.«

tcent@Matthew:15:29 @ And Jesus went on from there and passed along the Sea of Galilee. And he went up on the mountain, and sat down there.

tcent@Matthew:15:31 @ So the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the maimed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.

tcent@Matthew:15:37 @ And they all ate and were satisfied; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.

tcent@Matthew:15:39 @ And he sent away the crowds, got into the boat, and went to the region of Magadan.

tcent@Matthew:16:3 @ And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.

tcent@Matthew:16:4 @ A wicked and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonah.« So he left them and departed.

tcent@Matthew:16:6 @ Then Jesus said to them, »Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.«

tcent@Matthew:16:8 @ But Jesus, aware of this, said, »O men of little faith, why do you discuss among yourselves the fact that you have no bread?

tcent@Matthew:16:9 @ Do you not yet perceive? Do you not remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you gathered?

tcent@Matthew:16:10 @ Or the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets you gathered?

tcent@Matthew:16:11 @ How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you about bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.«

tcent@Matthew:16:12 @ Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

tcent@Matthew:16:13 @ When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, »Who do men say that the Son of Man is?«

tcent@Matthew:16:14 @ And they said, »Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.«

tcent@Matthew:16:16 @ Simon Peter answered, »You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.«

tcent@Matthew:16:18 @ And I tell you, that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.

tcent@Matthew:16:19 @ I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.«

tcent@Matthew:16:23 @ But he turned and said to Peter, »Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.«

tcent@Matthew:16:27 @ For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will reward each man according to what he has done.

tcent@Matthew:16:28 @ Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.«

tcent@Matthew:17:9 @ And as they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, »Tell no one the vision, until the Son of Man is raised from the dead.«

tcent@Matthew:17:12 @ But I tell you that Elijah has come already, and they did not know him but did to him whatever they wished. So also the Son of Man is about to suffer at their hands.«

tcent@Matthew:17:13 @ Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.

tcent@Matthew:17:15 @ »Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic and he suffers terribly; for often he falls into the fire, and often into the water.

tcent@Matthew:17:18 @ And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was cured from that moment.

tcent@Matthew:17:20 @ So he said to them, »Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.«

tcent@Matthew:17:22 @ Now while they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, »The Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men,

tcent@Matthew:17:24 @ When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the half-shekel tax went up to Peter and said, »Does not your teacher pay the temple tax?«

tcent@Matthew:17:25 @ He said, »Yes.« And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, »What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take customs or taxes, from their sons or from others?«

tcent@Matthew:17:27 @ Nevertheless, so that we may not offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you open its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for me and you.«

tcent@Matthew:18:1 @ At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, »Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?«

tcent@Matthew:18:2 @ He called to him a little child, and put him in the midst of them,

tcent@Matthew:18:3 @ and he said, »Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

tcent@Matthew:18:4 @ Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

tcent@Matthew:18:6 @ »But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

tcent@Matthew:18:7 @ Woe to the world because of temptations to sin! For temptations must come, but woe to the man by whom the temptation comes!

tcent@Matthew:18:8 @ And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire.

tcent@Matthew:18:9 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.

tcent@Matthew:18:10 @ »See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:18:12 @ What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to the mountains in search of the one that went astray?

tcent@Matthew:18:14 @ So it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

tcent@Matthew:18:16 @ But if he will not listen, take one or two others along with you, so that ‘every matter may be established by the word of two or three witnesses.’

tcent@Matthew:18:19 @ Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.

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

tcent@Matthew:18:21 @ Then Peter came to him and said, »Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?«

tcent@Matthew:18:23 @ Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.

tcent@Matthew:18:27 @ The master of that servant took pity on him, released him, and forgave him the debt.

tcent@Matthew:18:28 @ But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe.’

tcent@Matthew:18:35 @ So also my heavenly Father will do to each of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.«

tcent@Matthew:19:1 @ Now when Jesus had finished these sayings, he went away from Galilee and entered the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.

tcent@Matthew:19:7 @ They said to him, »Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?«

tcent@Matthew:19:8 @ He said to them, »Because of the hardness of your hearts Moses permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.

tcent@Matthew:19:10 @ The disciples said to him, »If such is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry.«

tcent@Matthew:19:12 @ For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept it, let him accept it.«

tcent@Matthew:19:14 @ But Jesus said, »Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.«

tcent@Matthew:19:23 @ Then Jesus said to his disciples, »Truly I say to you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

tcent@Matthew:19:24 @ Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.«

tcent@Matthew:19:28 @ Jesus said to them, »Truly I say to you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

tcent@Matthew:20:1 @ »For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.

tcent@Matthew:20:8 @ And when evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last, up to the first.’

tcent@Matthew:20:10 @ So when the first came, they thought they would receive more; but each of them also received a denarius.

tcent@Matthew:20:12 @ saying, ‘These last men have worked only one hour, and you made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the heat of the day.’

tcent@Matthew:20:13 @ But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?

tcent@Matthew:20:18 @ »Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn him to death,

tcent@Matthew:20:20 @ Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to him with her sons and, kneeling down, asked something of him.

tcent@Matthew:20:21 @ And he said to her, »What do you want?« She said to him, »Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom.«

tcent@Matthew:20:25 @ But Jesus called them to him and said, »You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them.

tcent@Matthew:20:28 @ just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.«

tcent@Matthew:20:29 @ And as they went out of Jericho, a great crowd followed him.

tcent@Matthew:20:30 @ And behold, two blind men sitting by the roadside, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, »Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!«

tcent@Matthew:20:31 @ The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be quiet; but they cried out all the more, »Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!«

tcent@Matthew:21:1 @ Now when they drew near Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,

tcent@Matthew:21:3 @ If any one says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord has need of them,’ and he will send them immediately.«

tcent@Matthew:21:11 @ So the crowds said, »This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.«

tcent@Mark:5:10 @ And he begged him eagerly not to send them out of the country.

tcent@Mark:5:11 @ Now a large herd of swine was feeding there on the hillside.

tcent@Mark:5:22 @ Then came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name. And seeing him, he fell at his feet,

tcent@Mark:5:23 @ and pleaded earnestly with him, saying, »My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be healed, and live.«

tcent@Mark:5:25 @ And there was a woman who had endured a flow of blood for twelve years,

tcent@Mark:5:29 @ And immediately the bleeding stopped; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.

tcent@Mark:5:34 @ And he said to her, »Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your disease.«

tcent@Mark:5:35 @ While he was still speaking, some came from the ruler of the synagogue's house who said, »Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?«

tcent@Mark:5:36 @ But ignoring what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, »Do not be afraid; only believe.«

tcent@Mark:5:37 @ And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

tcent@Mark:5:38 @ When they came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, he saw a tumult, and people weeping and wailing loudly.

tcent@Mark:5:42 @ Immediately the girl stood up and walked (she was twelve years of age). And they were overcome with great amazement.

tcent@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Are not his sisters here with us?« And they took offense at him.

tcent@Mark:6:6 @ And he marveled because of their unbelief. Then he went around the villages teaching.

tcent@Mark:6:11 @ And if any place will not receive you and they refuse to hear you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet for a testimony against them.«

tcent@Mark:6:14 @ King Herod heard of it, for Jesus' name had become well known. Some said, »John the Baptist has been raised from the dead, and that is why these powers are at work in him.«

tcent@Mark:6:15 @ But others said, »It is Elijah.« And others said, »It is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.«

tcent@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent and had John arrested, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

tcent@Mark:6:21 @ But an opportunity came when Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his high officers and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

tcent@Mark:6:22 @ And when the daughter of Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his dinner guests. The king said to the girl, »Ask me for whatever you want, and I will give it to you.«

tcent@Mark:6:23 @ And he vowed to her, »Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.«

tcent@Mark:6:24 @ So she went out and said to her mother, »What shall I ask?« And she said, »The head of John the Baptist!«

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

tcent@Mark:6:26 @ And the king was exceedingly sorry; but, because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

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

tcent@Mark:6:33 @ But many saw them going, and knew them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns, and got there ahead of them.

tcent@Mark:6:37 @ But he answered them, »You give them something to eat.« And they said to him, »Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread, and give it to them to eat?«

tcent@Mark:6:40 @ So they sat down in groups, of hundreds and fifties.

tcent@Mark:6:43 @ And they took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and of the fish.

tcent@Mark:6:47 @ When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on land.

tcent@Mark:6:48 @ And he saw the disciples straining at the oars, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. He was about to pass by them,

tcent@Mark:6:54 @ And when they got out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,

tcent@Mark:6:56 @ Wherever he entered, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged him that they might touch even the fringe of his garment. And as many as touched him were made well.

tcent@Mark:7:1 @ Now when the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered together to him,

tcent@Mark:7:2 @ they saw some of his disciples eating food with hands that were defiled, that is, unwashed.

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

tcent@Mark:7:4 @ When they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they wash themselves. And there are many other traditions which they observe, the washing of cups and pitchers and copper vessels. )

tcent@Mark:7:5 @ The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, »Why do your disciples not live according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with impure hands?«

tcent@Mark:7:6 @ And he said to them, »Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites; as it is written:

tcent@Mark:7:8 @ You let go of the commandment of God, and hold on to the tradition of men.«

tcent@Mark:7:9 @ And he said to them, »You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!

tcent@Mark:7:13 @ thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do.«

tcent@Mark:7:15 @ there is nothing outside a man which by going into him can defile him; but the things which come out of a man are what defile him.«

tcent@Mark:7:20 @ And he said, »What comes out of a man is what defiles a man.

tcent@Mark:7:21 @ For from within, out of the heart of men, come evil thoughts, fornications, theft, murder, adultery,

tcent@Mark:7:24 @ From there he arose and went away to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered a house, and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not be hidden.

tcent@Mark:7:26 @ Now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by birth. And she begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

tcent@Mark:7:31 @ Then he departed from the region of Tyre, and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, through the region of the Decapolis.

tcent@Mark:7:35 @ And his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.

tcent@Mark:8:3 @ And if I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way; and some of them have come a long distance.«

tcent@Mark:8:8 @ They ate, and were satisfied; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces left over.

tcent@Mark:8:10 @ he immediately got into the boat with his disciples, and went to the region of Dalmanutha.

tcent@Mark:8:15 @ And he cautioned them, saying, »Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.«

tcent@Mark:8:17 @ Being aware of it, Jesus said to them, »Why do you discuss the fact that you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive or understand? Are your hearts hardened?

tcent@Mark:8:19 @ When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?« They said to him, »Twelve.«

tcent@Mark:8:20 @ »And when I broke the seven for the four thousand, how many large baskets full of pieces did you take up?« And they said, »Seven.«

tcent@Mark:8:23 @ So he took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. And when he had spit on his eyes and put his hands on him, he asked him »Do you see anything?«

tcent@Mark:8:27 @ And Jesus went on with his disciples, to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he asked his disciples, »Who do men say that I am?«

tcent@Mark:8:28 @ They replied, »Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.«

tcent@Mark:8:31 @ And he began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

tcent@Mark:8:33 @ But when he had turned around and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter, and said, »Get behind me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.«

tcent@Mark:8:36 @ For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?

tcent@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man will also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.«

tcent@Mark:9:1 @ And he said to them, »Truly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God come with power.«

tcent@Mark:9:7 @ And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, »This is my beloved Son. Listen to him!«

tcent@Mark:9:9 @ And as they were coming down the mountain, he charged them to tell no one what they had seen, until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

tcent@Mark:9:12 @ Then he said to them, »Elijah does come first and restores all things. And how is it written of the Son of Man, that he must suffer many things and be treated with contempt?

tcent@Mark:9:13 @ But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they did to him whatever they wished, as it is written of him.«

tcent@Mark:9:17 @ And one of the crowd answered him, »Teacher, I brought my son to you, who has a mute spirit.

tcent@Mark:9:22 @ And it has often thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have pity on us and help us.«

tcent@Mark:9:24 @ Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, »I believe; help my unbelief!«

tcent@Mark:9:25 @ And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, »You dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again.«

tcent@Mark:9:26 @ And the spirit cried out, convulsed him terribly, and came out. And the boy was like a corpse; so that many of them said, »He is dead.«

tcent@Mark:9:31 @ For he was teaching his disciples and said to them, »The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men. They will kill him, and when he is killed, after three days he will rise.«

tcent@Mark:9:35 @ And he sat down, called the twelve, and said to them, »If anyone desires to be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.«

tcent@Mark:9:36 @ And he took a little child, and put him in the midst of them. And taking him in his arms, he said to them,

tcent@Mark:9:37 @ »Whoever receives one of these little children in my name receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me.«

tcent@Mark:9:38 @ John said to him, »Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name and we forbade him, because he was not one of us.«

tcent@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, »Do not forbid him, for no one who does a miracle in my name can soon afterward speak evil of me.

tcent@Mark:9:41 @ For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to Christ, will by no means lose his reward.

tcent@Mark:9:42 @ »Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung round his neck and he were thrown into the sea.

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

tcent@Mark:9:45 @ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell.

tcent@Mark:9:47 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,

tcent@Mark:10:1 @ Then he left there and went to the region of Judea and beyond the Jordan. And crowds gathered to him again; and again, as his custom was, he taught them.

tcent@Mark:10:4 @ They said, »Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to put her away.«

tcent@Mark:10:5 @ But Jesus said to them, »Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.

tcent@Mark:10:6 @ But from the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’

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

tcent@Mark:10:15 @ Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will not enter it.«

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

tcent@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, »Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!

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

tcent@Mark:10:32 @ They were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them; and they were amazed, and those who followed were afraid. And he took the twelve aside again and began to tell them what was to happen to him.

tcent@Mark:10:33 @ »Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him to the Gentiles;

tcent@Mark:10:35 @ Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him and said, »Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask.«

tcent@Mark:10:44 @ and whoever wants to be first among you must be slave of all.

tcent@Mark:10:45 @ For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.«

tcent@Mark:10:46 @ And they came to Jericho. And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, Bartimaeus, a blind man, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the roadside begging.

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

tcent@Mark:10:48 @ Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he cried out all the more, »Son of David, have mercy on me!«

tcent@Mark:11:1 @ And when they drew near Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

tcent@Mark:11:3 @ If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord has need of it and will send it back here immediately.’«

tcent@Mark:11:5 @ And some of those who stood there said to them, »What are you doing, untying the colt?«

tcent@Mark:11:15 @ So they came to Jerusalem. And Jesus entered the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

tcent@Mark:11:19 @ When evening came, they went out of the city.

tcent@Mark:11:30 @ The baptism of John—was it from heaven or from men? Answer me.«

tcent@Mark:12:2 @ At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants, to collect from them some of the fruit of the vineyard.

tcent@Mark:12:8 @ So they took him and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

tcent@Mark:12:9 @ What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants, and give the vineyard to others.

tcent@Mark:12:13 @ Then they sent to him some of the Pharisees and the Herodians, to catch him in his words.

tcent@Mark:12:14 @ When they came, they said to him, »Teacher, we know that you are true, and care about no man; for you do not regard the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

tcent@Mark:12:22 @ So the seven had her and left no children. Last of all the woman died also.

tcent@Mark:12:24 @ Jesus said to them, »Is not this why you are wrong, that you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God?

tcent@Mark:12:26 @ And as for the dead being raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God said to him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

tcent@Mark:12:27 @ He is not the God of the dead, but of the living; you are greatly mistaken.«

tcent@Mark:12:28 @ And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he had answered them well, asked him, »Which commandment is the first of all?«

tcent@Mark:12:33 @ and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.«

tcent@Mark:12:34 @ And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, »You are not far from the kingdom of God.« And after that no one dared to ask him any question.

tcent@Mark:12:35 @ And Jesus said, while he taught in the temple, »How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

tcent@Mark:12:38 @ And in his teaching he said, »Beware of the scribes, who like to go around in long robes, and to have salutations in the market places

tcent@Mark:12:39 @ and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts,

tcent@Mark:12:44 @ For they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in everything—all she had to live on.«

tcent@Mark:13:1 @ And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, »Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!«

tcent@Mark:13:3 @ Now as he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked him privately,

tcent@Mark:13:7 @ When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed; such things must happen, but the end is not yet.

tcent@Mark:13:8 @ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginning of birth pains.

tcent@Mark:13:14 @ »When you see ‘the abomination of desolation’ standing where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

tcent@Mark:13:15 @ Let him who is on the housetop not go down into the house, nor enter to take anything out of his house.

tcent@Mark:13:19 @ For in those days there will be tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be.

tcent@Mark:13:20 @ And if the Lord had not shortened those days, no flesh would be saved; but for the sake of the elect, whom he chose, he shortened the days.

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

tcent@Mark:13:27 @ And then he will send out his angels, and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.

tcent@Mark:13:32 @ »But of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

tcent@Mark:13:35 @ Watch therefore—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning—

tcent@Mark:14:1 @ It was now two days before the Passover and the feast of Unleavened Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to arrest him by stealth, and kill him.

tcent@Mark:14:2 @ But they said, »Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar of the people.«

tcent@Mark:14:3 @ And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at table, a woman came with an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly. And she broke the flask and poured it over his head.

tcent@Mark:14:9 @ And truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.«

tcent@Mark:14:10 @ Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray him to them.

tcent@Mark:14:12 @ Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover lamb, his disciples said to him, »Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?«

tcent@Mark:14:13 @ And he sent two of his disciples, and said to them, »Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you; follow him.

tcent@Mark:14:14 @ And wherever he enters, say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says, where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’

tcent@Mark:14:18 @ And as they were at table eating, Jesus said, »Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me, one who is eating with me.«

tcent@Mark:14:20 @ He said to them, »It is one of the twelve, one who dips bread into the dish with me.

tcent@Mark:14:21 @ For the Son of Man goes just as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born.«

tcent@Mark:14:24 @ And he said to them, »This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

tcent@Mark:14:25 @ Truly, I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.«

tcent@Mark:14:26 @ And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

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

tcent@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

tcent@Mark:14:47 @ And one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

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

tcent@Mark:14:61 @ But he was silent and made no answer. Again the high priest asked him, »Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?«

tcent@Mark:14:64 @ You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think?« And they all condemned him as worthy of death.

tcent@Mark:14:66 @ Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came.

tcent@Mark:14:69 @ And the servant girl saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by, »This is one of them.«

tcent@Mark:14:70 @ But again he denied it. And after a little while again those standing near said to Peter, »Surely you are one of them; for you are a Gallilean.«

tcent@Mark:14:71 @ But he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, »I do not know this man of whom you speak.«

tcent@Mark:15:2 @ Then Pilate asked him, »Are you the King of the Jews?« And he answered him, »It is as you say.«

tcent@Mark:15:3 @ And the chief priests accused him of many things.

tcent@Mark:15:9 @ But Pilate answered them, »Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?«

tcent@Mark:15:10 @ For he knew it was out of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him.

tcent@Mark:15:12 @ And Pilate again said to them, »Then what shall I do with the man whom you call the King of the Jews?«

tcent@Mark:15:17 @ And they clothed him in a purple cloak, and they twisted a crown of thorns and put it on him.

tcent@Mark:15:18 @ And they began to salute him, »Hail, King of the Jews!«

tcent@Mark:15:20 @ And when they had mocked him, they took the purple robe off him, and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.

tcent@Mark:15:21 @ Then they compelled a certain man, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, as he was coming out of the country and passing by, to carry his cross.

tcent@Mark:15:22 @ And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means the place of a skull).

tcent@Mark:15:23 @ Then they offered him wine mingled with myrrh, but he did not take it.

tcent@Mark:15:26 @ And the inscription of the charge written against him read:

tcent@Mark:15:32 @ Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.« Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.

tcent@Mark:15:35 @ When some of those standing near heard this, they said, »Behold, he is calling Elijah.«

tcent@Mark:15:36 @ And one ran and filled a sponge full of wine vinegar, put it on a reed, and offered it to him to drink, saying, »Wait, let us see if Elijah will come to take him down.«

tcent@Mark:15:38 @ Then the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.

tcent@Mark:15:39 @ So when the centurion, who stood opposite him, saw that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, »Truly this man was the Son of God!«

tcent@Mark:15:40 @ There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome,

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

tcent@Mark:15:46 @ Then he bought fine linen, took him down, and wrapped him in the linen. And he laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.

tcent@Mark:15:47 @ Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.

tcent@Mark:16:1 @ Now when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.

tcent@Mark:16:2 @ And very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.

tcent@Mark:16:3 @ And they asked each other, »Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?«

tcent@Mark:16:6 @ But he said to them, »Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.

tcent@Mark:16:9 @ Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons.

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

tcent@Mark:16:14 @ Later he appeared to the eleven as they sat at the table; and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen him after he had risen.

tcent@Mark:16:19 @ So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

tcent@Luke:1:26 @ In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

tcent@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.

tcent@Luke:1:29 @ But she was greatly troubled at his saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be.

tcent@Luke:1:32 @ He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father David.

tcent@Luke:1:33 @ And he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there will be no end.«

tcent@Luke:1:35 @ And the angel answered her, »The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.

tcent@Luke:1:38 @ Then Mary said, »Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.« And the angel departed from her.

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

tcent@Luke:1:40 @ and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.

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

tcent@Luke:1:42 @ And she exclaimed with a loud voice, »Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

tcent@Luke:1:44 @ For behold, as soon as the voice of your greeting came to my ears, the babe in my womb leaped for joy.

tcent@Luke:1:45 @ And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.«

tcent@Luke:1:65 @ And fear came on all their neighbors. And all these things were discussed throughout all the hill country of Judea;

tcent@Luke:1:66 @ and all who heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, »What then will this child be?« For the hand of the Lord was with him.

tcent@Luke:1:80 @ And the child grew and became strong in spirit, and he was in the wilderness till the day of his manifestation to Israel.

tcent@Luke:2:1 @ In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that a census should be taken of all the world.

tcent@Luke:2:2 @ This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.

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

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

tcent@Luke:2:21 @ And at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

tcent@Luke:2:22 @ And when the time of their purification according to the law of Moses was completed, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord

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

tcent@Luke:22:22 @ For the Son of Man goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!«

tcent@Luke:22:23 @ Then they began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this.

tcent@Luke:22:24 @ A dispute also arose among them, which of them was to be considered the greatest.

tcent@Luke:22:25 @ And he said to them, »The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and those who exercise authority over them are called benefactors.

tcent@Luke:22:30 @ so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

tcent@Luke:22:39 @ He came out, and went to the Mount of Olives, as was his custom, and his disciples followed him.

tcent@Luke:22:44 @ And being in agony, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.

tcent@Luke:22:47 @ While he was still speaking, a crowd came, and the man who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him;

tcent@Luke:22:48 @ but Jesus said to him, »Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?«

tcent@Luke:22:50 @ And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

tcent@Luke:22:51 @ But Jesus answered, »No more of this!« And he touched his ear and healed him.

tcent@Luke:22:52 @ Then Jesus said to the chief priests, officers of the temple, and the elders who had come to him, »Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

tcent@Luke:22:53 @ When I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.«

tcent@Luke:22:55 @ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

tcent@Luke:22:58 @ And a little later some one else saw him and said, »You also are of them.« But Peter said, »Man, I am not!«

tcent@Luke:22:61 @ And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, »Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.«

tcent@Luke:22:66 @ As soon as it was day, the council of the elders of the people came together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away to their council chamber, saying,

tcent@Luke:22:69 @ But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.«

tcent@Luke:22:70 @ They all said, »Are you the Son of God, then?« He said to them, »You said what I am.«

tcent@Luke:23:1 @ Then the whole body of them arose and led him to Pilate.

tcent@Luke:23:3 @ So Pilate asked him, »Are you the King of the Jews?« He answered him, »It is as you say.«

tcent@Luke:23:26 @ And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus.

tcent@Luke:23:27 @ And a great multitude of the people followed him, and women who also mourned and lamented him.

tcent@Luke:23:28 @ But Jesus turning to them said, »Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

tcent@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood watching; but even the rulers sneered at him, saying, »He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Christ of God, the Chosen One.«

tcent@Luke:23:36 @ The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him wine vinegar,

tcent@Luke:23:37 @ and saying, »If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself.«

tcent@Luke:23:39 @ One of the criminals who were hanged there hurled insults at him, saying, »Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!«

tcent@Luke:23:40 @ But the other rebuked him, saying, »Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?

tcent@Luke:23:41 @ And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.«

tcent@Luke:23:45 @ for the sun was darkened; and the curtain of the temple was torn in two.

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

tcent@Luke:23:51 @ who had not consented to their decision and deed. He came from of Arimathea, a city of the Jews, and he was waiting for the kingdom of God.

tcent@Luke:23:52 @ This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

tcent@Luke:23:53 @ Then he took it down and wrapped it in linen cloth, and laid it in a tomb that was hewn out of the rock, where no one had ever yet been laid.

tcent@Luke:24:1 @ But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.

tcent@Luke:24:3 @ but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

tcent@Luke:24:7 @ ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’«

tcent@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told this to the apostles.

tcent@Luke:24:13 @ Now behold, that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

tcent@Luke:24:18 @ Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, »Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem and do not know the things that have happened there in these days?«

tcent@Luke:24:19 @ And he said to them, »What things?« And they said to him, »The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

tcent@Luke:24:22 @ In addition, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning,

tcent@Luke:24:23 @ and when they did not find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said he was alive.

tcent@Luke:24:24 @ Some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said; but him they did not see.«

tcent@Luke:24:25 @ And he said to them, »O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

tcent@Luke:24:35 @ Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread.

tcent@Luke:24:42 @ They gave him a piece of broiled fish,

tcent@Luke:24:44 @ Then he said to them, »These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled.«

tcent@Luke:24:47 @ and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

tcent@Luke:24:48 @ You are witnesses of these things.

tcent@Luke:24:49 @ And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you; but stay in the city, until you are clothed with power from on high.«

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

tcent@John:1:7 @ He came for a witness, to bear witness of the light, that all might believe through him.

tcent@John:1:8 @ He was not the light, but came to bear witness of the light.

tcent@John:1:12 @ But to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—

tcent@John:1:13 @ who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

tcent@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.

tcent@John:1:15 @ John bore witness of him and cried out, saying, »This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks before me, for he was before me.’«

tcent@John:1:18 @ No one has ever seen God; God the only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made him known.

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

tcent@John:1:27 @ It is he who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie.«

tcent@John:1:29 @ The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, »Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

tcent@John:1:30 @ This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who ranks before me, for he was before me.’

tcent@John:1:34 @ And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.«

tcent@John:1:35 @ Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples.

tcent@John:1:36 @ And he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, »Behold, the Lamb of God!«

tcent@John:1:40 @ One of the two who heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

tcent@John:1:42 @ He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, »You are Simon son of John. You shall be called Cephas« (which means Peter).

tcent@John:1:44 @ Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

tcent@John:1:45 @ Philip found Nathanael and said to him, »We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote – Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.«

tcent@John:1:46 @ And Nathanael said to him, »Can anything good come out of Nazareth?« Philip said to him, »Come and see.«

tcent@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, and said of him, »Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!«

tcent@John:1:49 @ Nathanael answered him, »Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!«

tcent@John:1:51 @ And he said to him, »Truly, truly, I say to you, you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.«

tcent@John:2:1 @ On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

tcent@John:2:3 @ When the wine was gone, the mother of Jesus said to him, »They have no wine.«

tcent@John:2:6 @ Now six stone jars were standing there, according to the manner for purification of the Jews, each holding twenty or thirty gallons.

tcent@John:2:8 @ He said to them, »Now draw some out, and take it to the master of the feast.« So they took it.

tcent@John:2:9 @ When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it had come from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.

tcent@John:2:11 @ This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

tcent@John:2:13 @ The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

tcent@John:2:15 @ And he made a whip of cords, and drove them all, with the sheep and oxen, out of the temple; and he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.

tcent@John:2:16 @ And he said to those who sold doves, »Take these things away! You shall not make my Father's house a house of merchandise!«

tcent@John:2:21 @ But he was speaking of the temple of his body.

tcent@John:2:25 @ and he had no need for anyone to bear witness of man, for he knew what was in man.

tcent@John:3:1 @ Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

tcent@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered him, »Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.«

tcent@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, »Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

tcent@John:3:6 @ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

tcent@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.«

tcent@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered him, »Are you the teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?

tcent@John:3:11 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and testify to what we have seen; but you do not receive our testimony.

tcent@John:3:13 @ No one has ascended into heaven, but he who came from heaven – the Son of Man.

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

tcent@John:3:18 @ He who believes in him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

tcent@John:3:22 @ After this Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judea, and there he remained with them and baptized.

tcent@John:3:25 @ Now a discussion arose between some of John's disciples and a Jew over purifying.

tcent@John:3:29 @ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now full.

tcent@John:3:31 @ »He who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth belongs to the earth, and of the earth he speaks. He who comes from heaven is above all.

tcent@John:3:34 @ For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without measure.

tcent@John:3:36 @ He who believes in the Son has eternal life; he who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.«

tcent@John:4:5 @ So he came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

tcent@John:4:7 @ There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her, »Give me a drink.«

tcent@John:4:9 @ Then the woman of Samaria said to him, »How is it that you, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?« For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

tcent@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered her, »If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.«

tcent@John:4:13 @ Jesus answered her, »Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,

tcent@John:4:14 @ but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. The water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.«

tcent@John:4:30 @ They went out of the city and came to him.

tcent@John:4:32 @ But he said to them, »I have food to eat of which you do not know.«

tcent@John:4:34 @ Jesus said to them, »My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to finish his work.

tcent@John:4:39 @ Many of the Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, »He told me all that I ever did.«

tcent@John:4:41 @ And many more believed because of his word.

tcent@John:4:42 @ They said to the woman, »We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man is indeed the Savior of the world.«

tcent@John:4:46 @ So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was sick.

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

tcent@John:4:49 @ The official said to him, »Sir, come down before my child dies.«

tcent@John:4:52 @ So he inquired of them the hour when his son got better, and they said to him, »Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.«

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

tcent@John:5:3 @ In these lay a multitude of disabled people, blind, lame, paralyzed.

tcent@John:5:19 @ Jesus said to them, »Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, the Son also does.

tcent@John:5:25 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.

tcent@John:5:27 @ and has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.

tcent@John:5:29 @ and come forth – those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

tcent@John:5:30 @ »I can do nothing of myself; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.

tcent@John:5:31 @ »If I bear witness of myself, my testimony is not true.

tcent@John:5:32 @ There is another who bears witness of me, and I know that the testimony which he bears of me is true.

tcent@John:5:36 @ But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these very works which I am doing, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent me.

tcent@John:5:37 @ And the Father who sent me has himself testified of me. You have never heard his voice, nor seen his form.

tcent@John:5:39 @ You search the Scriptures, because in them you think that you have eternal life; and these are they that testify of me.

tcent@John:5:42 @ But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you.

tcent@John:6:1 @ After this Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias.

tcent@John:6:4 @ Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.

tcent@John:6:7 @ Philip answered him, »Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each one of them to have a little.«

tcent@John:6:8 @ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,

tcent@John:6:13 @ So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, left over by those who had eaten.

tcent@John:6:22 @ On the next day the people who remained on the other side of the sea saw that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone.

tcent@John:6:25 @ When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, »Rabbi, when did you come here?«

tcent@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them, »Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves.

tcent@John:6:27 @ Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you; for on him has God the Father set his seal.«

tcent@John:6:28 @ Then they said to him, »What must we do, to be doing the works of God?«

tcent@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered them, »This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.«

tcent@John:6:33 @ For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.«

tcent@John:6:35 @ And Jesus said to them, »I am the bread of life. He who comes to me shall never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst.

tcent@John:6:38 @ For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

tcent@John:6:39 @ And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.

tcent@John:6:40 @ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.«

tcent@John:6:42 @ They said, »Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he now say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?«

tcent@John:6:48 @ I am the bread of life.

tcent@John:6:50 @ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die.

tcent@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh.«

tcent@John:6:53 @ So Jesus said to them, »Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.

tcent@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on me will live because of me.

tcent@John:6:60 @ Many of his disciples, when they heard it, said, »This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?«

tcent@John:6:61 @ When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples complained about this, he said to them, »Does this offend you?

tcent@John:6:62 @ What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before?

tcent@John:6:63 @ It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit, and they are life.

tcent@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you who do not believe.« For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray him.

tcent@John:6:66 @ From this time many of his disciples went back and no longer walked with him.

tcent@John:6:68 @ Simon Peter answered him, »Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.

tcent@John:6:69 @ And we believe, and have come to know, that you are the Holy One of God.«

tcent@John:6:70 @ Jesus answered them, »Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?«

tcent@John:6:71 @ He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who was to betray him, though one of the twelve.

tcent@John:7:2 @ Now the Jews' feast of Tabernacles was at hand.

tcent@John:7:7 @ The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify of it that its works are evil.

tcent@John:7:13 @ However, no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

tcent@John:7:14 @ Now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

tcent@John:7:18 @ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but he who seeks the glory of the One who sent him is true, and in him there is no falsehood.

tcent@John:7:19 @ Did not Moses give you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why do you seek to kill me?«

tcent@John:7:23 @ If on the Sabbath a man receives circumcision, so that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because on the Sabbath I made a man's whole body well?

tcent@John:7:25 @ Then some of the people of Jerusalem said, »Is not this the man whom they seek to kill?

tcent@John:7:31 @ And many of the people believed in him, and they said, »When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than this man has done?«

tcent@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard the crowd muttering these things about him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to arrest him.

tcent@John:7:37 @ On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, »If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.

tcent@John:7:38 @ He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.«

tcent@John:7:40 @ When they heard these words, some of the people said, »Surely this is the prophet.«

tcent@John:7:43 @ So there was a division among the people because of him.

tcent@John:7:44 @ Some of them wanted to seize him, but no one laid hands on him.

tcent@John:7:45 @ The officers then went back to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, »Why did you not bring him?«

tcent@John:7:46 @ The officers answered, »No man ever spoke like this man!«

tcent@John:7:48 @ Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him?

tcent@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus before, and who was one of them, said to them,

tcent@John:7:52 @ They replied, »Are you from Galilee, too? Search and look, and you will find that no prophet is to rise out of Galilee.«

tcent@John:8:1 @ But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

tcent@John:8:4 @ they said to him, »Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery.

tcent@John:8:6 @ They said this to test him, that they might have something of which to accuse him. But Jesus bent down and wrote on the ground with his finger.

tcent@John:8:12 @ Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, »I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.«

tcent@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees then said to him, »You are bearing witness of yourself; your testimony is not true.«

tcent@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered, »Even if I bear witness of myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going.

tcent@John:8:17 @ In your own law it is written that the testimony of two men is true.

tcent@John:8:18 @ I am One who bears witness of myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness of me.«

tcent@John:8:23 @ He said to them, »You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

tcent@John:8:27 @ They did not understand that he spoke to them of the Father.

tcent@John:8:28 @ So Jesus said, »When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority but speak just what the Father taught me.

tcent@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, »Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.

tcent@John:8:38 @ I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your Father.«

tcent@John:8:41 @ You do the deeds of your father.« They said to him, »We were not born of fornication; we have one Father – God.«

tcent@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, »If God were your Father, you would love me, for I proceeded and came forth from God; I have not come of my own accord, but he sent me.

tcent@John:8:44 @ You are of your father the devil, and you want to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

tcent@John:8:46 @ Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?

tcent@John:8:47 @ He who is of God hears the words of God; the reason you do not hear them is that you are not of God.«

tcent@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, »If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is your God.

tcent@John:8:59 @ So they took up stones to throw at him; but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.

tcent@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, »Neither this man sinned nor his parents sinned. But that the works of God might be revealed in him,

tcent@John:9:4 @ we must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. Night is coming, when no one can work.

tcent@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.«

tcent@John:9:6 @ As he said this, he spat on the ground and made clay of the saliva, and anointed the man's eyes with the clay.

tcent@John:9:7 @ And he said to him, »Go, wash in the pool of Siloam« (which means, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.

tcent@John:9:11 @ He answered and said, »A man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went and washed, and I received sight.«

tcent@John:9:16 @ Some of the Pharisees said, »This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath.« But others said, »How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?« And there was a division among them.

tcent@John:9:18 @ The Jews did not believe that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight.

tcent@John:9:22 @ His parents said this because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had agreed already that if anyone confessed that he was Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.

tcent@John:9:23 @ Therefore his parents said, »He is of age; ask him.«

tcent@John:9:28 @ Then they reviled him and said, »You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

tcent@John:9:31 @ We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if any one is a worshiper of God and does his will, he listens to him.

tcent@John:9:32 @ Never since the world began has it been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind.

tcent@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and when he found him, he said, »Do you believe in the Son of Man?«

tcent@John:9:40 @ Then some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this, and said to him, »Are we blind also?«

tcent@John:10:2 @ But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

tcent@John:10:5 @ A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.«

tcent@John:10:7 @ Then Jesus said to them again, »Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

tcent@John:10:16 @ And I have other sheep that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will heed my voice. So there shall be one flock and one shepherd.

tcent@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from my Father.«

tcent@John:10:19 @ There was again a division among the Jews because of these words.

tcent@John:10:20 @ Many of them said, »He has a demon, and is mad. Why listen to him?«

tcent@John:10:21 @ Others said, »These are not the sayings of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?«

tcent@John:10:22 @ Then came the Feast of Dedication at Jerusalem. It was winter,

tcent@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, »I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me;

tcent@John:10:26 @ but you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.

tcent@John:10:28 @ I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one shall snatch them out of my hand.

tcent@John:10:29 @ My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of my Father's hand.

tcent@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, »I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?«

tcent@John:10:35 @ If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),

tcent@John:10:36 @ do you say of him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?

tcent@John:10:37 @ If I do not do the works of my father, do not believe me;

tcent@John:11:1 @ Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.

tcent@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard it, he said, »This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.«

tcent@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, »Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

tcent@John:11:13 @ Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep.

tcent@John:11:18 @ Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off,

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

tcent@John:11:22 @ But even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you.«

tcent@John:11:27 @ She said to him, »Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.«

tcent@John:11:37 @ But some of them said, »Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?«

tcent@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, »Take away the stone.« Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, »Lord, by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been dead four days.«

tcent@John:11:40 @ Jesus said to her, »Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?«

tcent@John:11:42 @ I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing by, that they may believe that you sent me.«

tcent@John:11:45 @ Many of the Jews therefore, who had come to Mary and had seen what Jesus did, believed in him.

tcent@John:11:46 @ But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

tcent@John:11:49 @ But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, »You know nothing at all!

tcent@John:11:52 @ and not for that nation only, but also that he would gather together into one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

tcent@John:11:55 @ Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went from the country up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

tcent@John:12:2 @ There they made him a supper; and Martha served, while Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.

tcent@John:12:3 @ Then Mary took a pound of very costly perfume of pure nard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

tcent@John:12:4 @ But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, said,

tcent@John:12:7 @ Jesus said, »Let her alone, she has kept this for the day of my burial.

tcent@John:12:9 @ Now a great crowd of the Jews learned that he was there, and they came, not only on account of Jesus but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.

tcent@John:12:11 @ because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and believing in Jesus.

tcent@John:12:13 @ They took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying,

tcent@John:12:17 @ The crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead bore witness.

tcent@John:12:23 @ Jesus answered them, »The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

tcent@John:12:24 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much fruit.

tcent@John:12:31 @ Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.

tcent@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered him, »We have heard from the Law that the Christ remains forever; and how can you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?«

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

tcent@John:13:1 @ Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

tcent@John:13:2 @ And during supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,

tcent@John:13:10 @ Jesus said to him, »He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not every one of you.«

tcent@John:13:18 @ I am not speaking of you all. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘he who ate my bread has lifted up his heel against me.’

tcent@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, »Truly, truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.«

tcent@John:13:22 @ The disciples looked at one another, uncertain of whom he spoke.

tcent@John:13:23 @ One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was leaning close to the breast of Jesus.

tcent@John:13:24 @ Simon Peter motioned to him and said, »Ask who it is of whom he speaks.«

tcent@John:13:25 @ Then, leaning back on the breast of Jesus, he said to him, »Lord, who is it?«

tcent@John:13:26 @ Jesus answered, »It is he to whom I shall give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.« And having dipped the bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

tcent@John:13:30 @ Having received the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.

tcent@John:16:5 @ But now I am going to him who sent me, yet none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’

tcent@John:16:8 @ And when he comes, he will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

tcent@John:16:9 @ of sin, because they do not believe in me;

tcent@John:16:10 @ of righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you see me no more;

tcent@John:16:11 @ of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

tcent@John:16:14 @ He will glorify me, for he will take of what is mine and declare it to you.

tcent@John:16:15 @ All that the Father has is mine. Therefore I said that he will take of what is mine and declare it to you.

tcent@John:16:17 @ Then some of his disciples said to one another, »What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’; and, ‘because I go to the Father’?«

tcent@John:16:29 @ His disciples said, »See, now you are speaking plainly, and not using a figure of speech!

tcent@John:17:6 @ »I have manifested your name to the men whom you have given me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.

tcent@John:17:24 @ Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me may be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

tcent@John:18:2 @ Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place; for Jesus often met there with his disciples.

tcent@John:18:3 @ So Judas, having received a detachment of soldiers and some officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

tcent@John:18:5 @ They answered him, »Jesus of Nazareth.« Jesus said to them, »I am he.« And Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them.

tcent@John:18:7 @ Again he asked them, »Whom do you seek?« And they said, »Jesus of Nazareth.«

tcent@John:18:9 @ This happened so that the words which he had spoken would be fulfilled, »Of those whom you gave me I have lost none.«

tcent@John:18:10 @ Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.

tcent@John:18:12 @ Then the detachment of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound him.

tcent@John:18:13 @ And they led him to Annas first; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.

tcent@John:18:15 @ Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. As this disciple was known to the high priest, he went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.

tcent@John:18:17 @ Then the girl who kept the door said to Peter, »You are not also one of this man’s disciples, are you?« He said, »I am not.«

tcent@John:18:18 @ Now the servants and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves. Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.

tcent@John:18:22 @ And when he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, »Is that the way you answer the high priest?«

tcent@John:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter stood warming himself. Therefore they said to him, »You are not also one of his disciples, are you?« He denied it and said, »I am not.«

tcent@John:18:26 @ One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, »Did I not see you in the garden with him?«

tcent@John:18:33 @ Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called Jesus, and said to him, »Are you the King of the Jews?«

tcent@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered, »My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now my kingship is not from here.«

tcent@John:18:37 @ Pilate said to him, »You are a king then?« Jesus answered, »You say what I am—a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears my voice.«

tcent@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover. So do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?«

tcent@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and they clothed him in a purple robe.

tcent@John:19:3 @ They came up to him, saying, »Hail, King of the Jews!« and struck him with their hands.

tcent@John:19:5 @ So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, »Behold the man!«

tcent@John:19:6 @ When the chief priests and officers saw him, they cried out, »Crucify him, crucify him!« Pilate said to them, »You take him and crucify him, for I find no fault in him.«

tcent@John:19:7 @ The Jews answered him, »We have a law, and according to that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.«

tcent@John:19:14 @ Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover, about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, »Behold your King!«

tcent@John:19:17 @ And he, bearing his cross, went out to a place called the Place of the Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha.

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

tcent@John:19:21 @ The chief priests of the Jews then said to Pilate, »Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’«

tcent@John:19:25 @ By the cross of Jesus stood his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

tcent@John:19:29 @ Now a vessel full of wine vinegar was sitting there; so they filled a sponge with the vinegar, put it on hyssop, and put it to his mouth.

tcent@John:19:31 @ Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

tcent@John:19:32 @ Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him.

tcent@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

tcent@John:19:36 @ For these things were done that the scripture should be fulfilled, »Not one of his bones shall be broken.«

tcent@John:19:38 @ After this Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body.

tcent@John:19:39 @ And Nicodemus, who had at first come to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

tcent@John:19:40 @ So they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in strips of linen with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.

tcent@John:19:42 @ So because of the Jewish day of Preparation, as the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.

tcent@John:20:1 @ On the first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

tcent@John:20:2 @ So she ran, and came to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, »They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him.«

tcent@John:20:12 @ And she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and the other at the feet.

tcent@John:20:19 @ On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, »Peace be with you.«

tcent@John:20:23 @ If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.«

tcent@John:20:24 @ Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

tcent@John:20:25 @ So the other disciples told him, »We have seen the Lord.« But he said to them, »Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger in the mark of the nails, and put my hand in his side, I will not believe.«

tcent@John:20:30 @ Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book;

tcent@John:20:31 @ but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.

tcent@John:21:1 @ After this Jesus showed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and in this way he showed himself:

tcent@John:21:2 @ Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together.

tcent@John:21:6 @ He said to them, »Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.« So they cast, and now they were not able to haul it in because of the great number of fish.

tcent@John:21:8 @ But the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from land, but about a hundred yards off.

tcent@John:21:9 @ When they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, with fish lying on it, and bread.

tcent@John:21:10 @ Jesus said to them, »Bring some of the fish you have just caught.«

tcent@John:21:11 @ Simon Peter went aboard and dragged the net ashore, full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not torn.

tcent@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, »Come and have breakfast.« Now none of the disciples dared ask him, »Who are you?« They knew it was the Lord.

tcent@John:21:15 @ When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, »Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?« He said to him, »Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.« He said to him, »Feed my lambs.«

tcent@John:21:16 @ He said to him again a second time, »Simon, son of John, do you love me?« He said to him, »Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.« He said to him, »Tend my sheep.«

tcent@John:21:17 @ He said to him the third time, »Simon, son of John, do you love me?« Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, »Do you love me?« And he said to him, »Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.« Jesus said to him, »Feed my sheep.

tcent@John:21:25 @ But there are also many other things which Jesus did. If every one of them were to be written, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.

tcent@Acts:1:3 @ To these he also presented himself alive after his suffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God.

tcent@Acts:1:4 @ And while staying with them, he commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, »Which,« he said, »you heard of from me;

tcent@Acts:1:8 @ But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the ends of the earth.«

tcent@Acts:1:9 @ And after he had said this, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight.

tcent@Acts:1:11 @ They also said, »Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched him go into heaven.«

tcent@Acts:1:13 @ And when they had entered, they went up to the upper room, where they were staying; Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot and Judas the son of James.

tcent@Acts:1:14 @ All these with one mind devoted themselves to prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.

tcent@Acts:1:15 @ In those days Peter stood up among the brethren (the company of persons was in all about a hundred and twenty), and said,

tcent@Acts:1:16 @ »Brethren, the scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke beforehand by the mouth of David, concerning Judas who was guide to those who arrested Jesus.

tcent@Acts:1:18 @ (Now this man bought a field with the reward of his wickedness; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his intestines gushed out.

tcent@Acts:3:16 @ And his name, by faith in his name, has made this man strong whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Jesus has given him perfect health in the presence of you all.

tcent@Acts:3:18 @ But what God foretold by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ would suffer, he thus fulfilled.

tcent@Acts:3:19 @ Repent therefore, and turn again, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

tcent@Acts:3:21 @ whom heaven must receive until the time for establishing all that God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from long ago.

tcent@Acts:3:25 @ You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God made with your fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘And in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’

tcent@Acts:3:26 @ For you first, God raised up his servant and sent him to bless you by turning every one of you from your wicked ways.«

tcent@Acts:4:1 @ And as they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple guard and the Sadducees came up to them,

tcent@Acts:4:4 @ But many of those who heard the message believed; and the number of the men came to about five thousand.

tcent@Acts:4:6 @ and Annas the high priest was there, and Caiaphas and John and Alexander, and all who were of the high-priestly family.

tcent@Acts:4:8 @ Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, »Rulers of the people and elders,

tcent@Acts:4:10 @ be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by him this man stands before you healed.

tcent@Acts:4:13 @ Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished; and they recognized that they had been with Jesus.

tcent@Acts:4:16 @ saying, »What shall we do with these men? For that a noteworthy miracle has been performed through them is apparent to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.

tcent@Acts:4:18 @ Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.

tcent@Acts:4:19 @ But Peter and John answered them, »Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge;

tcent@Acts:4:21 @ And when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people; for all the people were praising God for what had happened.

tcent@Acts:4:22 @ For the man on whom this sign of healing was performed was more than forty years old.

tcent@Acts:4:25 @ who by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David your servant, said,

tcent@Acts:4:27 @ For truly in this city there were gathered together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel,

tcent@Acts:4:30 @ while you stretch out your hand to heal, and signs and wonders take place through the name of your holy servant Jesus.«

tcent@Acts:4:31 @ And when they had prayed, the place where they were gathered together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God with boldness.

tcent@Acts:4:32 @ Now the company of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one claimed that any of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had everything in common.

tcent@Acts:4:33 @ And with great power the apostles gave their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all.

tcent@Acts:4:34 @ For there was not a needy person among them, For all who were owners of land or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of the sales

tcent@Acts:4:36 @ Thus Joseph who was called by the apostles Barnabas (which means, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus,

tcent@Acts:5:1 @ But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property,

tcent@Acts:5:2 @ and with his wife's full knowledge he kept back some of the money for himself, and brought only a part and laid it at the apostles' feet.

tcent@Acts:5:3 @ But Peter said, »Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back some of the price of the land?

tcent@Acts:5:5 @ When Ananias heard these words, he fell down and died. And great fear came upon all who heard of it.

tcent@Acts:5:7 @ After an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.

tcent@Acts:5:9 @ Then Peter said to her, »How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.«

tcent@Acts:5:11 @ And great fear came upon the whole church, and upon all who heard of these things.

tcent@Acts:5:12 @ Now many signs and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the apostles. And they were all together in Solomon's Porch.

tcent@Acts:5:13 @ None of the rest dared join them, but the people held them in high honor.

tcent@Acts:5:14 @ And all the more believers in the Lord, multitudes of men and women, were constantly added to their number,

tcent@Acts:5:15 @ so that they even carried out the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and pallets, so that as Peter came by at least his shadow might fall on some of them.

tcent@Acts:5:17 @ But the high priest rose up and all who were with him, that is, the party of the Sadducees, and they were filled with jealousy.

tcent@Acts:5:19 @ But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the prison, and brought them out, and said,

tcent@Acts:5:20 @ »Go, stand and speak to the people in the temple the whole message of this Life.«

tcent@Acts:5:21 @ And when they heard this, they entered into the temple about daybreak and began to teach. Now when the high priest and his associates came, they called the Council together, even all the Senate of the sons of Israel, and sent orders to the prison house for them to be brought.

tcent@Acts:5:22 @ But when the officers came, they did not find them in the prison, and they returned and reported back,

tcent@Acts:5:24 @ Now when the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard these words, they were much perplexed about them, wondering what would come of this.

tcent@Acts:5:26 @ Then the captain went along with the officers and brought them back without violence, for they were afraid of the people, that they might be stoned.

tcent@Acts:5:30 @ The God of our fathers raised Jesus—whom you had killed by hanging him on a tree.

tcent@Acts:5:31 @ God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince and Savior, to give repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.

tcent@Acts:5:32 @ We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.«

tcent@Acts:5:34 @ But a Pharisee in the council named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, held in honor by all the people, stood up and ordered the men to be put outside for a while.

tcent@Acts:5:35 @ And he said to them, »Men of Israel, take care what you propose to do with these men.

tcent@Acts:5:36 @ For some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and a group of about four hundred men joined him. But he was killed, and all who followed him were dispersed and came to nothing.

tcent@Acts:5:37 @ After this man, Judas the Galilean rose up in the days of the census and drew away some people after him; he too perished, and all those who followed him were scattered.

tcent@Acts:5:38 @ So in the present case I tell you, keep away from these men and let them alone, for if this plan or action is of men, it will fail;

tcent@Acts:5:39 @ but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them; or else you may even be found fighting against God.«

tcent@Acts:5:40 @ So they took his advice, and they called the apostles in and had them flogged. Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.

tcent@Acts:5:41 @ Then they left the presence of the council, rejoicing that they had been counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the name.

tcent@Acts:6:1 @ Now in those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews among them complained against the native Hebrews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.

tcent@Acts:6:2 @ So the twelve summoned the congregation of the disciples and said, »It is not right for us to neglect the word of God in order to serve tables.

tcent@Acts:6:3 @ Therefore, brethren, pick out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint to this duty.

tcent@Acts:6:4 @ But we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.«

tcent@Acts:6:5 @ And the statement pleased the whole congregation; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch.

tcent@Acts:6:7 @ The word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith.

tcent@Acts:6:8 @ And Stephen, full of grace and power, did great wonders and signs among the people.

tcent@Acts:6:9 @ Then some of those who belonged to the synagogue of the Freedmen (as it was called), and of the Cyrenians, and of the Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia and Asia, arose and disputed with Stephen.

tcent@Acts:6:14 @ for we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place, and will change the customs which Moses handed down to us.«

tcent@Acts:6:15 @ And fixing their gaze on him, all who were sitting in the Council saw that his face was like the face of an angel.

tcent@Acts:7:2 @ And he said: »Hear me, brethren and fathers! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,

tcent@Acts:7:4 @ Then he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. From there, after his father died, God had him move to this country in which you are now living.

tcent@Acts:7:5 @ But He gave him no inheritance in it, not even a foot of ground, and yet, even though he had no child, he promised that he would give it to him as a possession, and to his descendants after him.

tcent@Acts:7:8 @ And he gave him the covenant of circumcision. And so Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.

tcent@Acts:7:9 @ »And the patriarchs, jealous of Joseph, sold him into Egypt. But God was with him,

tcent@Acts:7:10 @ and rescued him from all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he made him governor over Egypt and all his household.

tcent@Acts:7:16 @ They were carried back to Shechem and laid in the tomb that Abraham had bought for a sum of money from the sons of Hamor in Shechem.

tcent@Acts:7:17 @ »But as the time of the promise drew near, which God had granted to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt

tcent@Acts:7:22 @ Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was mighty in his words and deeds.

tcent@Acts:7:23 @ »When he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren, the sons of Israel.

tcent@Acts:7:24 @ And when he saw one of them being treated unjustly, he defended him and avenged the oppressed by striking down the Egyptian.

tcent@Acts:7:26 @ On the following day he appeared to two of them as they were fighting, and tried to reconcile them, saying, ‘Men, you are brethren; why do you wrong each other?’

tcent@Acts:7:29 @ At this remark Moses fled, and became an exile in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.

tcent@Acts:7:30 @ »After forty years had passed, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in the flame of a burning bush.

tcent@Acts:7:31 @ When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight; and as he approached to look more closely, there came the voice of the Lord:

tcent@Acts:7:32 @ ‘I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob.’ Moses trembled with fear and did not dare to look.

tcent@Acts:7:33 @ And the Lord said to him, ‘Take off the sandals from your feet, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.

tcent@Acts:7:34 @ I have certainly seen the oppression of my people in Egypt and have heard their groaning, and I have come down to rescue them. Come now, and I will send you to Egypt.’

tcent@Acts:7:35 @ This Moses whom they rejected, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’ is the one God sent to be both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.

tcent@Acts:7:36 @ This man led them out, performing wonders and signs in the land of Egypt and in the Red Sea and in the wilderness for forty years.

tcent@Acts:7:40 @ saying to Aaron, ‘Make for us gods who will go before us; as for this Moses who led us out from the land of Egypt—we do not know what has happened to him.’

tcent@Acts:7:41 @ At that time they made a calf and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and were rejoicing in the works of their hands.

tcent@Acts:7:42 @ But God turned away and gave them over to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets:

tcent@Acts:7:44 @ »Our fathers had the tabernacle of testimony in the wilderness, just as he who spoke to Moses directed him to make it according to the pattern which he had seen.

tcent@Acts:7:45 @ And having received it in their turn, our fathers brought it in with Joshua when they took the land from the nations whom God drove out before our fathers. So it was until the time of David,

tcent@Acts:7:46 @ who found favor in God's sight, and asked that he might find a dwelling place for the God of Jacob.

tcent@Acts:7:52 @ Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? And they killed those who announced beforehand the coming of the Righteous One, whom you have now betrayed and murdered,

tcent@Acts:7:55 @ But being full of the Holy Spirit, he gazed intently into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God;

tcent@Acts:7:56 @ and he said, »Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.«

tcent@Acts:7:58 @ Then they cast him out of the city and began to stone him; and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.

tcent@Acts:8:3 @ But Saul began ravaging the church, and, entering house after house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.

tcent@Acts:8:5 @ Philip went down to a city of Samaria and proclaimed Christ to them.

tcent@Acts:8:7 @ For unclean spirits, crying with a loud voice, came out of many who were possessed; and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed.

tcent@Acts:8:9 @ Now there was a man named Simon, who had formerly practiced magic in the city and amazed all the people of Samaria. He boasted that he was someone great,

tcent@Acts:8:10 @ and they all, from the least to the greatest, gave attention to him, saying, »This man is what is called the Great Power of God.«

tcent@Acts:8:12 @ But when they believed Philip as he preached good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

tcent@Acts:8:14 @ Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John,

tcent@Acts:8:16 @ For he had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

tcent@Acts:8:18 @ Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,

tcent@Acts:8:20 @ But Peter said to him, »May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!

tcent@Acts:8:22 @ Repent therefore of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you.

tcent@Acts:8:23 @ For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity.«

tcent@Acts:8:24 @ And Simon answered, »Pray for me to the Lord, so that nothing of what you have said may come upon me.«

tcent@Acts:8:25 @ Now when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel to many villages of the Samaritans.

tcent@Acts:8:26 @ But an angel of the Lord said to Philip, »Get up and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.« This is a desert road.

tcent@Acts:8:27 @ So he got up and went. And there was an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure; and he had come to Jerusalem to worship,

tcent@Acts:8:32 @ Now the passage of Scripture which he was reading was this:

tcent@Acts:8:34 @ And the eunuch said to Philip, »Please tell me, of whom does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?«

tcent@Acts:8:35 @ Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this scripture he told him the good news of Jesus.

tcent@Acts:8:39 @ And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away; and the eunuch saw him no more, but went on his way rejoicing.

tcent@Acts:9:1 @ Now Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,

tcent@Acts:9:11 @ And the Lord said to him, »Get up and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying,

tcent@Acts:9:15 @ But the Lord said to him, »Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel;

tcent@Acts:9:16 @ for I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name.«

tcent@Acts:9:20 @ And immediately he began to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, saying, »He is the Son of God.«

tcent@Acts:9:21 @ All those who heard him were amazed, and said, »Is this not he who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called on this name, and who had come here for the purpose of bringing them bound before the chief priests?«

tcent@Acts:9:26 @ When he came to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.

tcent@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. And he declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.

tcent@Acts:9:28 @ And he was with them moving about freely in Jerusalem, speaking out boldly in the name of the Lord.

tcent@Acts:9:30 @ But when the brethren learned of it, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus.

tcent@Acts:9:31 @ So the church throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria enjoyed peace and was built up; and going on in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, it continued to increase.

tcent@Acts:9:36 @ Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha (which is translated Dorcas). She was full of good works and acts of charity.

tcent@Acts:10:1 @ At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of what was known as the Italian Cohort,

tcent@Acts:10:3 @ About the ninth hour of the day he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God who had just come in and said to him, »Cornelius!«

tcent@Acts:10:7 @ When the angel who spoke to him had left, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier of those who were his personal attendants,

tcent@Acts:10:12 @ In it were all kinds of four-footed animals and reptiles of the earth and birds of the air.

tcent@Acts:10:22 @ They said, »Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous and God-fearing man, who is well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house, and to hear what you have to say.«

tcent@Acts:10:32 @ Send therefore to Joppa and ask for Simon who is called Peter; he is lodging in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea.’

tcent@Acts:10:33 @ So I sent for you immediately, and you have been kind enough to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God, to hear all that you have been commanded by the Lord.«

tcent@Acts:10:36 @ You know the word which he sent to Israel, preaching good news of peace through Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all).

tcent@Acts:10:38 @ how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

tcent@Acts:10:39 @ We are witnesses of all that he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree;

tcent@Acts:10:42 @ And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that he is the one appointed by God to be judge of the living and the dead.

tcent@Acts:10:43 @ Of him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.«

tcent@Acts:10:45 @ All the circumcised believers who came with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles.

tcent@Acts:10:48 @ And he ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay on for a few days.

tcent@Acts:11:1 @ Now the apostles and the brethren who were throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.

tcent@Acts:11:5 @ »I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, something descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came down to me.

tcent@Acts:11:6 @ And when I looked into it I saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the air.

tcent@Acts:11:16 @ And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’

tcent@Acts:11:19 @ Now those who were scattered because of the persecution that arose in connection with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews.

tcent@Acts:11:20 @ But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who came to Antioch and began speaking to the Greeks also, preaching the Lord Jesus.

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

tcent@Acts:11:22 @ News of this reached the ears of the church at Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.

tcent@Acts:11:23 @ When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts;

tcent@Acts:11:24 @ for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great number of people were brought to the Lord.

tcent@Acts:11:26 @ and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for a whole year they met with the church and taught great numbers of people; and the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.

tcent@Acts:11:28 @ One of them named Agabus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine all over the world. And this took place in the reign of Claudius.

tcent@Acts:12:2 @ He had James the brother of John put to death with the sword.

tcent@Acts:12:3 @ When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread.

tcent@Acts:12:4 @ When he had seized him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people.

tcent@Acts:12:7 @ And behold, an angel of the Lord suddenly appeared, and a light shone in the cell; and he struck Peter's side and woke him up, saying, »Get up quickly.« And the chains fell off his hands.

tcent@Acts:12:11 @ When Peter came to himself, he said, »Now I know for sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting.«

tcent@Acts:12:12 @ When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was also called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.

tcent@Acts:12:13 @ And when he knocked at the door of the gate, a servant-girl named Rhoda came to answer.

tcent@Acts:12:14 @ When she recognized Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate, but ran in and announced that Peter was standing in front of the gate.

tcent@Acts:12:15 @ They said to her, »You are out of your mind!« But she kept insisting that it was so. They said, »It is his angel.«

tcent@Acts:12:17 @ But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, »Tell this to James and to the brethren.« Then he left and went to another place.

tcent@Acts:12:18 @ Now when day came, there was no small disturbance among the soldiers as to what had become of Peter.

tcent@Acts:12:20 @ Now he was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; and they came to him in a body, and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.

tcent@Acts:12:22 @ And the people shouted, »The voice of a god and not of a man!«

tcent@Acts:12:23 @ Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him because he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and died.

tcent@Acts:12:24 @ But the word of God continued to grow and to be multiplied.

tcent@Acts:13:1 @ Now in the church that was at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

tcent@Acts:13:3 @ Then after they had fasted and prayed, they laid their hands on them and sent them off.

tcent@Acts:13:5 @ When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John as their helper.

tcent@Acts:13:7 @ who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God.

tcent@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) was opposing them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

tcent@Acts:13:10 @ and said, »You who are full of all deceit and fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not stop making crooked the straight ways of the Lord?

tcent@Acts:13:11 @ Now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and unable to see the sun for a time.« And immediately a mist and a darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking someone to lead him by the hand.

tcent@Acts:13:12 @ Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what had happened, for he was amazed at the teaching of the Lord.

tcent@Acts:13:15 @ After the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, »Brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say it.«

tcent@Acts:13:17 @ the God of this people Israel chose our fathers and made the people great during their stay in the land of Egypt, and with uplifted arm he led them out of it.

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

tcent@Acts:13:21 @ Then they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.

tcent@Acts:13:22 @ And after he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king; concerning whom he testified and said, ‘I have found in David the son of Jesse a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’

tcent@Acts:13:24 @ Before his coming John had preached a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

tcent@Acts:13:25 @ And as John was completing his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’

tcent@Acts:13:26 @ »Brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you that fear God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation.

tcent@Acts:13:44 @ The next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.

tcent@Acts:13:46 @ Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and said, »It was necessary that the word of God be spoken to you first. Since you reject it and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.

tcent@Acts:13:48 @ When the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of the Lord; and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.

tcent@Acts:13:49 @ And the word of the Lord spread through the whole region.

tcent@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district.

tcent@Acts:13:51 @ So they shook off the dust from their feet in protest against them and went to Iconium.

tcent@Acts:14:1 @ Now at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue, and so spoke that a great number believed, both of Jews and of Greeks.

tcent@Acts:14:3 @ So they spent a long time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who bore witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

tcent@Acts:14:4 @ But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles.

tcent@Acts:14:6 @ they became aware of it and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and to the surrounding country;

tcent@Acts:14:11 @ And when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the Lycaonian language, »The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!«

tcent@Acts:14:13 @ The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just outside the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and wanted to offer sacrifice with the crowds.

tcent@Acts:14:14 @ But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their robes and rushed out into the crowd, crying out

tcent@Acts:14:15 @ »Men, why are you doing this? We also are men, of like nature with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to a living God who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them.

tcent@Acts:14:18 @ Even with these words, they had difficulty keeping the crowds from offering sacrifice to them.

tcent@Acts:14:19 @ But Jews came there from Antioch and Iconium; and having won over the crowds, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

tcent@Acts:14:22 @ strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying, »Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.«

tcent@Acts:14:26 @ From there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had completed.

tcent@Acts:14:27 @ When they arrived, they gathered the church together and declared all that God had done with them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.

tcent@Acts:15:1 @ But some men came down from Judea and were teaching the brethren, »Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.«

tcent@Acts:15:2 @ And when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and the elders about this question.

tcent@Acts:15:3 @ So, being sent on their way by the church, they passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, reporting the conversion of the Gentiles, and they gave great joy to all the brethren.

tcent@Acts:15:5 @ But some believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees stood up, and said, »It is necessary to circumcise them, and to charge them to keep the Law of Moses.«

tcent@Acts:15:7 @ After there had been much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, »Brethren, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles would hear the word of the gospel and believe.

tcent@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore why do you test God by putting upon the neck of the disciples a yoke which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?

tcent@Acts:15:11 @ But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they are.«

tcent@Acts:15:15 @ With this the words of the Prophets agree, just as it is written,

tcent@Acts:15:20 @ but that we should write to them to abstain from the pollutions of idols and from fornication and from what is strangled and from blood.

tcent@Acts:15:26 @ men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

tcent@Acts:15:27 @ We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who themselves will tell you the same things by word of mouth.

tcent@Acts:15:30 @ So when they were sent off, they went down to Antioch; and having gathered the congregation together, they delivered the letter.

tcent@Acts:15:33 @ And after they had spent some time there, they were sent off in peace by the brethren to those who had sent them.

tcent@Acts:15:35 @ But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.

tcent@Acts:15:36 @ After some days Paul said to Barnabas, »Let us return and visit the brethren in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.«

tcent@Acts:15:40 @ But Paul chose Silas and left, being commended by the brethren to the grace of the Lord.

tcent@Acts:16:1 @ And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra. A disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer; but his father was a Greek,

tcent@Acts:16:2 @ and he was well spoken of by the brethren who were in Lystra and Iconium.

tcent@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted this man to accompany him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those places, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

tcent@Acts:16:6 @ And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.

tcent@Acts:16:7 @ And when they came to Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them;

tcent@Acts:16:9 @ A vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing and begging him, and saying, »Come over to Macedonia and help us.«

tcent@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philippi, which is the leading city of the district of Macedonia, and a Roman colony. We stayed in this city some days;

tcent@Acts:16:13 @ and on the Sabbath day we went outside the gate to the riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down and began speaking to the women who had come together.

tcent@Acts:16:14 @ A woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, a seller of purple fabrics, who was a worshiper of God, was listening. The Lord opened her heart to respond to the things spoken by Paul.

tcent@Acts:16:16 @ It happened that as we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave-girl who had a spirit of divination. She brought her owners much profit by fortune-telling.

tcent@Acts:16:17 @ She followed Paul and the rest of us, crying, »These men are servants of the Most High God, who are telling you the way of salvation.«

tcent@Acts:16:18 @ She continued doing this for many days. But Paul was greatly annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, »I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!« And it came out at that very moment.

tcent@Acts:16:19 @ But when her owners saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the authorities,

tcent@Acts:16:22 @ The crowd joined against them, and the magistrates tore the garments off them and ordered them to be beaten with rods.

tcent@Acts:16:26 @ and suddenly there came a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were unfastened.

tcent@Acts:16:32 @ They spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house.

tcent@Acts:16:33 @ He took them that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he was baptized, he and all his family.

tcent@Acts:16:40 @ They went out of the prison and entered the house of Lydia, and when they saw the brethren, they encouraged them and departed.

tcent@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

tcent@Acts:17:4 @ And some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas; as did a large number of the God-fearing Greeks and not a few of the leading women.

tcent@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked men from the market place, they formed a mob and set the city in an uproar; they attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the people.

tcent@Acts:17:6 @ When they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brethren before the city authorities, shouting, »These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also,

tcent@Acts:17:7 @ and Jason has welcomed them, and they are all acting against the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.«

tcent@Acts:17:12 @ Therefore many of them believed, along with a number of prominent Greek women and men.

tcent@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews of Thessalonica learned that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul in Berea also, they came there too, agitating and stirring up the crowds.

tcent@Acts:17:16 @ Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw that the city was full of idols.

tcent@Acts:17:18 @ And also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him. Some said, »What would this idle babbler wish to say?« Others, »He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign deities,«—because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection.

tcent@Acts:17:19 @ And they took hold of him and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, »May we know what this new teaching is which you present?

tcent@Acts:17:22 @ So Paul stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: »Men of Athens, I see that in every way you are very religious.

tcent@Acts:17:23 @ For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you.

tcent@Acts:17:24 @ The God who made the world and everything in it, since he is Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by hands;

tcent@Acts:17:26 @ And he made from one man every nation of men to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation,

tcent@Acts:17:27 @ that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

tcent@Acts:17:28 @ as even some of your own poets have said,

tcent@Acts:17:29 @ Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man.

tcent@Acts:17:30 @ The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent,

tcent@Acts:17:31 @ because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given proof to all men by raising him from the dead.«

tcent@Acts:17:32 @ Now when they heard about the resurrection of the dead, some of them sneered, but others said, »We want to hear you again on this subject.«

tcent@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, having recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. He went to see them,

tcent@Acts:18:3 @ and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them, and they worked, for by trade they were tentmakers.

tcent@Acts:18:7 @ Then he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

tcent@Acts:18:8 @ Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with all his household; and many of the Corinthians who heard him believed and were baptized.

tcent@Acts:18:11 @ And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

tcent@Acts:18:12 @ But while Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a united attack upon Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,

tcent@Acts:18:14 @ But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, »If it were a matter of wrong or of vicious crime, O Jews, it would be reasonable for me to put up with you;

tcent@Acts:18:15 @ but since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves; I refuse to be a judge of these things.«

tcent@Acts:18:17 @ And they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the judgment seat. But Gallio paid no attention to this.

tcent@Acts:18:18 @ After this Paul stayed many days longer, and then took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and with him were Priscilla and Aquila. In Cenchrea he had his hair cut, for he had taken a vow.

tcent@Acts:18:21 @ but on taking leave of them he said, »I will return to you if God wills,« and he set sail from Ephesus.

tcent@Acts:18:23 @ After spending some time there, he departed and went from place to place through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.

tcent@Acts:18:24 @ Now a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well versed in the scriptures.

tcent@Acts:18:25 @ He had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John.

tcent@Acts:18:26 @ And he began to speak out boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.

tcent@Acts:19:4 @ Paul said, »John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus.«

tcent@Acts:19:5 @ On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

tcent@Acts:19:8 @ And he entered the synagogue and for three months spoke boldly, arguing and persuading about the kingdom of God.

tcent@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were stubborn and disbelieved, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them, and took the disciples with him, reasoning daily in the hall of Tyrannus.

tcent@Acts:19:10 @ This took place for two years, so that all who lived in the province of Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.

tcent@Acts:19:11 @ God did extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul,

tcent@Acts:19:13 @ But also some of the Jewish exorcists, who went from place to place, attempted to name over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, »I adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches.«

tcent@Acts:19:14 @ Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this.

tcent@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered all of them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

tcent@Acts:19:17 @ This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived in Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified.

tcent@Acts:19:18 @ Many also of those who believed now came, confessing and disclosing their practices.

tcent@Acts:19:19 @ And a number of those who practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all; and they counted the value of them and found it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver.

tcent@Acts:19:20 @ So the word of the Lord grew mightily and prevailed.

tcent@Acts:19:22 @ And having sent into Macedonia two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.

tcent@Acts:19:24 @ For a man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen.

tcent@Acts:19:25 @ These he gathered together, with the workmen of similar trades, and said, »Men, you know that from this business we have our wealth.

tcent@Acts:19:26 @ And you see and hear that not only in Ephesus, but in almost all of Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away a considerable number of people, saying that gods made with hands are no gods at all.

tcent@Acts:19:27 @ Not only is there danger that this trade of ours fall into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis be regarded as worthless and that she whom all of Asia and the world worship will even be dethroned from her magnificence.«

tcent@Acts:19:28 @ When they heard this, they were enraged and began crying out, »Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!«

tcent@Acts:19:31 @ Some of the Asiarchs also, who were friends of his, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theater.

tcent@Acts:19:32 @ Now some were shouting one thing, some another; for the assembly was in confusion, and most of the people did not know why they had come together.

tcent@Acts:19:33 @ Some of the crowd prompted Alexander, since the Jews had put him forward. And Alexander motioned with his hand, wishing to make a defense to the people.

tcent@Acts:19:34 @ But when they recognized that he was a Jew, for about two hours they all with one voice shouted, »Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!«

tcent@Acts:19:35 @ And when the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, »Men of Ephesus, what man is there after all who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is guardian of the temple of the great Artemis and of the image which fell down from heaven?

tcent@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought these men here who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of our goddess.

tcent@Acts:19:40 @ As it is, we are in danger of being charged with rioting because of today's events. In that case we would not be able to account for this commotion, since there is no reason for it.«

tcent@Acts:20:1 @ After the uproar had ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and when he had exhorted them and taken his leave of them, he set out for Macedonia.

tcent@Acts:20:4 @ He was accompanied by Sopater of Berea, the son of Pyrrhus, and by Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.

tcent@Acts:20:6 @ But we sailed away from Philippi after the Days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days came to them at Troas, where we stayed seven days.

tcent@Acts:20:7 @ On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight.

tcent@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he would not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hurrying to be in Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost.

tcent@Acts:20:17 @ From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called to him the elders of the church.

tcent@Acts:21:3 @ When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left we sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload its cargo.

tcent@Acts:21:5 @ And when our days there were ended, we left and started on our journey, while they all, with wives and children, brought us on our way until we were out of the city. After kneeling down on the beach and praying, we said farewell to one another.

tcent@Acts:21:8 @ On the next day we left and came to Caesarea, and entering the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, we stayed with him.

tcent@Acts:25:19 @ but they simply had some points of dispute with him about their own religion and about a dead man, Jesus, whom Paul asserted to be alive.

tcent@Acts:25:23 @ So on the next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp and entered the audience room with the high ranking officers and the prominent men of the city. At the command of Festus, Paul was brought in.

tcent@Acts:25:25 @ But I found that he had done nothing deserving of death; and as he himself appealed to the emperor, I decided to send him.

tcent@Acts:26:2 @ »I consider myself fortunate that it is before you, King Agrippa, I am to make my defense today against all the accusations of the Jews,

tcent@Acts:26:3 @ because you are especially familiar with all customs and controversies of the Jews; therefore I beg you to listen to me patiently.

tcent@Acts:26:4 @ So then, all the Jews know my manner of life from my youth up, which from the beginning was spent among my own nation and at Jerusalem.

tcent@Acts:26:5 @ They have known about me for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that I lived as a Pharisee according to the strictest sect of our religion.

tcent@Acts:26:6 @ And now I am standing trial for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers;

tcent@Acts:26:8 @ Why is it thought incredible by any of you that God raises the dead?

tcent@Acts:26:9 @ I myself was convinced that I ought to do many things to oppose the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

tcent@Acts:26:10 @ And that is just what I did in Jerusalem; I not only shut up many of the saints in prison, by authority from the chief priests, but when they were put to death I cast my vote against them.

tcent@Acts:26:11 @ And as I punished them often in all the synagogues, I tried to force them to blaspheme; and being furiously enraged against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.

tcent@Acts:26:12 @ »On one of these journeys I was going to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests.

tcent@Acts:26:16 @ But get up and stand on your feet; for this purpose I have appeared to you, to appoint you a minister and a witness to the things which you have seen of me, and also to the things in which I will appear to you;

tcent@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’

tcent@Acts:26:20 @ but declared first to those at Damascus, then at Jerusalem and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God and perform deeds worthy of their repentance.

tcent@Acts:26:24 @ And as he was saying this in his defense, Festus said in a loud voice, »Paul, you are out of your mind! Your great learning is driving you mad.«

tcent@Acts:26:26 @ For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak freely; for I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this was not done in a corner.

tcent@Acts:26:31 @ and when they had gone aside, they began talking to one another, saying, »This man is not doing anything worthy of death or imprisonment.«

tcent@Acts:27:1 @ When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan cohort named Julius.

tcent@Acts:27:2 @ And embarking in a ship from Adramyttium, which was about to sail to the ports along the coast of Asia, we put out to sea, accompanied by Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica.

tcent@Acts:27:4 @ We put out to sea from there and sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us.

tcent@Acts:27:5 @ When we had sailed across the open sea off the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we landed at Myra in Lycia.

tcent@Acts:27:7 @ When we had sailed slowly for a good many days, and with difficulty had arrived off Cnidus, since the wind did not allow us to go farther, we sailed under the lee of Crete, off Salmone.

tcent@Acts:27:8 @ We sailed along it with difficulty and came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lasea.

tcent@Acts:27:10 @ and said to them, »Men, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and great loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.«

tcent@Acts:27:11 @ But the centurion was more persuaded by the pilot and the owner of the ship than by what was being said by Paul.

tcent@Acts:27:12 @ Because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority reached a decision to put out to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, facing southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.

tcent@Acts:27:16 @ And running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we were scarcely able to secure the boat.

tcent@Acts:27:17 @ After they had hoisted it up, they used supporting cables to undergird the ship; and fearing that they might run aground on the shallows of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and in this way let themselves be driven along.

tcent@Acts:27:20 @ When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm was raging on us, all hope of our being saved was finally abandoned.

tcent@Acts:27:22 @ Yet now I urge you to keep up your courage; for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

tcent@Acts:27:23 @ For this very night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood before me,

tcent@Acts:27:30 @ But as the sailors were trying to escape from the ship and had let down the lifeboat into the sea, on the pretense of laying out anchors from the bow,

tcent@Acts:27:32 @ Then the soldiers cut the ropes of the lifeboat and let it fall away.

tcent@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I urge you to take some food; it will give you strength, since not a hair is to perish from the head of any of you.«

tcent@Acts:27:35 @ Having said this, he took bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and he broke it and began to eat.

tcent@Acts:27:37 @ All of us in the ship were two hundred and seventy-six persons.

tcent@Acts:27:40 @ So they cast off the anchors and left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the ropes that tied the rudders; then hoisting the foresail to the wind they made for the beach.

tcent@Acts:27:41 @ But striking a sandbar they ran the vessel aground; the bow stuck fast and remained immovable, and the stern was broken up by the pounding of the surf.

tcent@Acts:27:42 @ The soldiers' plan was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim away and escape.

tcent@Acts:27:44 @ and the rest on planks or on various pieces of the ship. And so it happened that they were all brought safely to land.

tcent@Acts:28:3 @ But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and put them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened itself on his hand.

tcent@Acts:28:5 @ However he shook the creature off into the fire and suffered no harm.

tcent@Acts:28:7 @ Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who welcomed us and entertained us hospitably for three days.

tcent@Acts:28:8 @ It happened that the father of Publius was lying in bed sick with recurrent fever and dysentery; and Paul went in to see him and after he had prayed, he laid his hands on him and healed him.

tcent@Acts:28:9 @ When this had happened, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases also came and were cured.

tcent@Acts:28:15 @ And the brethren, when they heard of us, came from there as far as the Forum of Appius and Three Taverns to meet us. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.

tcent@Acts:28:17 @ After three days Paul called together the local leaders of the Jews; and when they had gathered, he said to them, »Brethren, though I had done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

tcent@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason therefore I have asked to see you and speak with you, since it is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.«

tcent@Acts:28:21 @ They said to him, »We have not received letters from Judea concerning you, and none of the brethren who have come here has reported or spoken anything bad about you.

tcent@Acts:28:23 @ When they had appointed a day for Paul, they came to him at his lodging in great numbers. And he explained the matter to them from morning till evening, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the law of Moses and from the prophets.

tcent@Acts:28:28 @ Therefore let it be known to you that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen.«

tcent@Acts:28:31 @ preaching the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ quite openly and unhindered.

tcent@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God

tcent@Romans:1:3 @ concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh,

tcent@Romans:1:4 @ and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord.

tcent@Romans:1:5 @ Through him we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations,

tcent@Romans:1:7 @ To all in Rome who are beloved of God, called to be saints:

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

tcent@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers,

tcent@Romans:1:13 @ I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but have been prevented from doing so until now) in order that I might have some harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.

tcent@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel: for it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

tcent@Romans:1:17 @ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, »The just shall live by faith.«

tcent@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and wickedness of men who by their wickedness suppress the truth,

tcent@Romans:1:20 @ For since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his eternal power and deity, has been clearly seen, being understood by the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;

tcent@Romans:1:23 @ and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

tcent@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,

tcent@Romans:1:25 @ because they exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

tcent@Romans:1:28 @ And since they did not see fit to retain the knowledge of God, God gave them over to a base mind, to do what ought not to be done.

tcent@Romans:1:29 @ They were filled with all manner of wickedness, evil, covetousness, depravity. Full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips,

tcent@Romans:1:30 @ slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,

tcent@Romans:1:32 @ Though they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

tcent@Romans:2:2 @ We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who do such things.

tcent@Romans:2:3 @ Do you think, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do the same yourself, you will escape the judgment of God?

tcent@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

tcent@Romans:2:5 @ But by your hardness and your impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.

tcent@Romans:2:13 @ For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous in the sight of God, but the doers of the law who will be justified.

tcent@Romans:2:15 @ They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts accusing or else excusing them

tcent@Romans:2:16 @ on that day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.

tcent@Romans:2:17 @ But if you call yourself a Jew, and rely on the law and boast of your relation to God

tcent@Romans:2:18 @ and know his will and approve of what is excellent, because you are instructed in the law,

tcent@Romans:2:20 @ an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, having in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth—

tcent@Romans:2:24 @ For, as it is written, »The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.«

tcent@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law; but if you break the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

tcent@Romans:2:26 @ So, if a man who is uncircumcised keeps the requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?

tcent@Romans:2:27 @ The one who is not circumcised physically and yet obeys the law will condemn you who, even though you have the written code and circumcision, are a breaker of the law.

tcent@Romans:2:29 @ He is a Jew who is one inwardly; and real circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, and not by the written code. His praise is not from men but from God.

tcent@Romans:3:1 @ Then what advantage has the Jew, or what is the value of circumcision?

tcent@Romans:3:2 @ Much in every way! To begin with, they are entrusted with the oracles of God.

tcent@Romans:3:3 @ What if some did not have faith? Will their faithlessness nullify the faithfulness of God?

tcent@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God, what shall we say? That God is unjust to inflict wrath on us? (I speak in a human way.)

tcent@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we Jews any better off? Certainly not; for we have already charged that all men, both Jews and Greeks, are under the power of sin.

tcent@Romans:3:20 @ Therefore no flesh will be justified in his sight by works of the law, for through the law comes knowledge of sin.

tcent@Romans:3:21 @ But now the righteousness of God has been revealed apart from law, although the law and the prophets bear witness to it,

tcent@Romans:3:22 @ the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. For there is no difference,

tcent@Romans:3:23 @ for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

tcent@Romans:3:26 @ and it was to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

tcent@Romans:3:27 @ Where then is our boasting? It is excluded. On what law? On the law of works? No, but on the law of faith.

tcent@Romans:3:28 @ For we hold that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the law.

tcent@Romans:3:29 @ Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,

tcent@Romans:4:6 @ So also David describes the blessedness of the man to whom God reckons righteousness apart from works:

tcent@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness which he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised, that he might be the father of all who believe but have not been circumcised, in order that righteousness might be reckoned to them.

tcent@Romans:4:12 @ And he is also the father of the circumcised who are not only circumcised but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith which our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

tcent@Romans:4:13 @ The promise to Abraham and his descendants, that he would be heir of the world, was not through the law but through the righteousness of faith.

tcent@Romans:4:14 @ For if those who are of the law are to be the heirs, faith has no value and the promise is void,

tcent@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all his descendants—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, for he is the father of us all

tcent@Romans:4:17 @ (as it is written, »I have made you the father of many nations«) in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls things that do not exist as though they did.

tcent@Romans:4:18 @ In hope, he believed against hope, so that he became the father of many nations; as he had been told, »So shall your descendants be.«

tcent@Romans:4:19 @ And he did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead since he was about a hundred years old, or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb.

tcent@Romans:4:20 @ He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God,

tcent@Romans:5:2 @ through whom we have obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in our hope of the glory of God.

tcent@Romans:5:9 @ Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved through him from the wrath of God.

tcent@Romans:5:10 @ For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

tcent@Romans:5:14 @ Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sins were not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come.

tcent@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if by the one man's trespass many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

tcent@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift is not like the effect of that one man's sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the gift following many trespasses brings justification.

tcent@Romans:5:17 @ For if, by the one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.)

tcent@Romans:5:18 @ So then, as one man's trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one man’s act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men.

tcent@Romans:5:19 @ For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

tcent@Romans:6:3 @ Or do you not know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

tcent@Romans:6:4 @ We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

tcent@Romans:6:6 @ We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.

tcent@Romans:6:13 @ Do not yield your members to sin as instruments of wickedness, but yield yourselves to God as men who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments of righteousness.

tcent@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that if you yield yourselves to any one to obey as slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?

tcent@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed,

tcent@Romans:6:18 @ and, having been set free from sin, you have become slaves of righteousness.

tcent@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking in human terms, because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for holiness.

tcent@Romans:6:20 @ When you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.

tcent@Romans:6:21 @ But then what return did you get from the things of which you are now ashamed? The end of those things is death.

tcent@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is holiness and its end, eternal life.

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

tcent@Romans:7:2 @ For a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of her husband.

tcent@Romans:7:4 @ Likewise, my brethren, you have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit to God.

tcent@Romans:7:6 @ But now, by dying to what once held us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

tcent@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, finding opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetous desire. For apart from the law sin lies dead.

tcent@Romans:7:22 @ For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being,

tcent@Romans:7:23 @ but I see in my members another law, at war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members.

tcent@Romans:7:24 @ Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?

tcent@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I of myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

tcent@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death.

tcent@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do, in that it was weakened through the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin: he condemned sin in the flesh,

tcent@Romans:8:4 @ in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

tcent@Romans:8:5 @ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

tcent@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, you are in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ he does not belong to him.

tcent@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, although your body is dead because of sin, your spirit is alive because of righteousness.

tcent@Romans:8:11 @ If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit who dwells in you.

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

tcent@Romans:8:14 @ For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

tcent@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship by whom we cry out, »Abba, Father.«

tcent@Romans:8:16 @ The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

tcent@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with him, in order that we may also be glorified with him.

tcent@Romans:8:18 @ I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed in us.

tcent@Romans:8:19 @ For the creation waits with eager expectation for the revealing of the sons of God.

tcent@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will, but by the will of him who subjected it in hope;

tcent@Romans:8:21 @ because the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and obtain the glorious liberty of the children of God.

tcent@Romans:8:23 @ And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

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

tcent@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.

tcent@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

tcent@Romans:8:34 @ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who is also interceding for us.

tcent@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

tcent@Romans:8:39 @ nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

tcent@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh.

tcent@Romans:9:4 @ They are Israelites, and to them belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises.

tcent@Romans:9:5 @ Of them are the patriarchs, and from them, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is God over all, forever blessed. Amen.

tcent@Romans:9:6 @ But it is not as though the word of God had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel,

tcent@Romans:9:7 @ nor are they all children of Abraham because they are his descendants; but, »Through Isaac shall your descendants be named.«

tcent@Romans:9:8 @ In other words, it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are reckoned as descendants.

tcent@Romans:9:11 @ though the twins were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad, in order that God's purpose of election might stand, not because of works but because of his call,

tcent@Romans:9:18 @ Therefore he has mercy on whom he wills, and he hardens the heart of whom he wills.

tcent@Romans:9:21 @ Does not the potter have right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

tcent@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, choosing to show his wrath and to make his power known, endured with much patience the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,

tcent@Romans:9:23 @ in order to make known the riches of his glory for the vessels of mercy, which he has prepared beforehand for glory,
