rsv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who are least esteemed by the church?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ To have lawsuits at all with one another is defeat for you. Why not rather suffer wrong? Why not rather be defrauded?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:30 @ If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?

rsv@1Corinthians:11:10 @ That is why a woman ought to have a veil on her head, because of the angels.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:30 @ That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise, what do people mean by being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their behalf?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:30 @ Why am I in peril every hour?

rsv@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Why, we felt that we had received the sentence of death; but that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead;

rsv@Colossians:2:20 @ If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the universe, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations,

rsv@Titus:1:5 @ This is why I left you in Crete, that you might amend what was defective, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you,

rsv@Philemon:1:15 @ Perhaps this is why he was parted from you for a while, that you might have him back for ever,

rsv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified have all one origin. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

rsv@1Peter:4:6 @ For this is why the gospel was preached even to the dead, that though judged in the flesh like men, they might live in the spirit like God.

rsv@1John:3:1 @ See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
