wesleynt@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, They have beaten us publickly, uncondemned, and have cast us into prison, who are Romans: and do they now thrust us out privately? Nay verily: but let them come themselves and conduct us out.

wesleynt@Acts:16:38 @ And the serjeants reported these words to the pretors; and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans.

wesleynt@Acts:16:39 @ And they came and comforted them; and conducting them out, requested that they would depart from the city.

wesleynt@Acts:16:40 @ And coming out of the prison, they entered into the house of Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them and departed.

wesleynt@Acts:17:1 @ And taking their journey through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

wesleynt@Acts:17:2 @ And Paul, according to his custom, went in to them, and three sabbath-days discoursed with them from the scriptures,

wesleynt@Acts:17:3 @ Opening them and evincing, That Christ ought to suffer, and to rise from the dead, and that this is the Christ, even Jesus, whom I declare unto you.

wesleynt@Acts:17:4 @ And some of them believed, and were joined to Paul and Silas, and a great number of the devout Greeks, and not a few of the principal women.

wesleynt@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews who believed not, filled with zeal, taking to them some of the mean and profligate fellows, and making a mob, set all the city in an uproar; and assaulting the house of Jason, sought to bring them out to the people.

wesleynt@Acts:17:6 @ But not finding them, they dragged Jason and certain brethren to the rulers of the city, crying aloud, These men, that have turned the world upside down, are come hither also:

wesleynt@Acts:17:7 @ Whom Jason hath privately received; and all these men act contrary to the decrees of Cesar, saying, that there is another king, one Jesus.

wesleynt@Acts:17:8 @ And they alarmed the multitude and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things.

wesleynt@Acts:17:9 @ However having taken security of Jason and of the rest, they let them go.

wesleynt@Acts:17:10 @ But the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night to Berea, who coming thither, went into the synagogue of the Jews.

wesleynt@Acts:17:11 @ These were more ingenuous than those of Thessalonica, receiving the word with all readiness of mind, and daily searching the scriptures, whether those things were so?

wesleynt@Acts:17:12 @ Therefore many of them believed, and of the Grecian women of considerable rank, and of the men not a few.

wesleynt@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews of Thessalonica knew that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea also, they came thither likewise, and stirred up the multitude.

wesleynt@Acts:17:14 @ Then the brethren sent away Paul immediately, to go as it were to the sea; but Silas and Timothy continued there.

wesleynt@Acts:17:15 @ And they that conducted Paul, brought him as far as Athens, and having received an order to Silas and Timothy, to come to him with all speed, they departed.

wesleynt@Acts:17:16 @ Now, while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him, seeing the city wholly given to idolatry.

wesleynt@Acts:17:17 @ He therefore discoursed in the synagogue to the Jews and the devout persons, and in the market-place daily to those whom he met with.

wesleynt@Acts:17:18 @ Then some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers incountered him: and some said, What would this babler say? Others, he seemeth to be a proclaimer of strange gods; because he preached to them Jesus, and the resurrection.

wesleynt@Acts:17:19 @ And they took him and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine is, which is spoken by thee?

wesleynt@Acts:17:20 @ For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears; we would therefore know, what these things mean?

wesleynt@Acts:17:21 @ (For all the Athenians, and the strangers sojourning there, spent their time in nothing else, but telling or hearing some new thing.)

wesleynt@Acts:17:22 @ Then Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that ye are greatly addicted to the worship of invisible powers.

wesleynt@Acts:17:23 @ For as I passed along and beheld the objects of your worship, I found an altar, on which was inscribed, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD: him therefore whom ye worship without knowing him, I proclaim unto you.

wesleynt@Acts:17:24 @ God who made the world and all things therein, being the Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands.

wesleynt@Acts:17:25 @ Neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed any thing, he himself giving to all life and breath, and all things.

wesleynt@Acts:17:26 @ And he hath made of one the whole nation of men, to dwell on all the face of the earth, having determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation:

wesleynt@Acts:17:27 @ That they might seek God, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he be not far from every one of us.

wesleynt@Acts:17:29 @ Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think the Godhead is like gold or silver, or stone, graven by art and contrivance of man.

wesleynt@Acts:17:30 @ The times of ignorance indeed God overlooked; but he now commandeth all men every where to repent.

wesleynt@Acts:17:31 @ Because he hath appointed a day, in which he will judge the world righteously, by the man whom he hath ordained, whereof he hath given assurance to all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

wesleynt@Acts:17:32 @ And when they heard of the resurrection from the dead, some mocked: but others said, We will hear thee again concerning this.

wesleynt@Acts:17:33 @ So Paul departed from among them. Howbeit, some clave to him and believed:

wesleynt@Acts:17:34 @ among whom was even Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

wesleynt@Acts:18:1 @ After these things, Paul departing from Athens, came to Corinth.

wesleynt@Acts:18:2 @ And finding a certain Jew name Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy with Priscilla his wife (because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome) he went to them.

wesleynt@Acts:18:3 @ And as he was of the same trade, he abode with them and wrought, for they were tent-makers by trade.

wesleynt@Acts:18:4 @ And he discoursed in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and Greeks.

wesleynt@Acts:18:5 @ And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in spirit, and testified to the Jews, that Jesus was the Christ.

wesleynt@Acts:18:6 @ But when they set themselves in opposition and blasphemed, he shook his raiment and said to them, Your blood is upon your own head; I am pure: from henceforth I will go to the Gentiles.

wesleynt@Acts:18:7 @ And going thence, he went into the house of one named Justus, one that worshiped God, whose house was adjoining to the synagogue.

wesleynt@Acts:18:8 @ And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians, hearing, believed and were baptized.

wesleynt@Acts:18:9 @ Then the Lord said to Paul by a vision, in the night, Fear not, but speak and hold not thy peace:

wesleynt@Acts:18:10 @ For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee; for I have much people in this city.

wesleynt@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

wesleynt@Acts:18:12 @ But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made an assault with one consent upon Paul, and brought him to the judgment-seat, Saying,

wesleynt@Acts:18:13 @ This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.

wesleynt@Acts:18:14 @ And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If it were an act of injustice or wicked licentiousness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you.

wesleynt@Acts:18:15 @ But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look ye to it; for I will be no judge of these matters.

wesleynt@Acts:18:16 @ And he drove them away from the judgment-seat.

wesleynt@Acts:18:17 @ Then they all took Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment-seat. And Gallio cared for none of these things.

wesleynt@Acts:18:18 @ And Paul still continued many days; and then taking leave of the brethren, sailed thence for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila, having shaved his head at Cenchrea; for he had a vow.

wesleynt@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left him there; but he himself going into the synagogue, reasoned with the Jews.

wesleynt@Acts:18:20 @ But though they intreated him to tarry longer with them, he consented not:

wesleynt@Acts:18:21 @ But took his leave of them, saying, I must by all means keep the approaching feast at Jerusalem, but I will return to you again, if God will.

wesleynt@Acts:18:22 @ And he set sail from Ephesus. And landing at Cesarea, he went up and saluted the church, and went down to Antioch.

wesleynt@Acts:18:23 @ And having spent some time there, he departed, and went over the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, confirming all the disciples.

wesleynt@Acts:18:24 @ Now a certain Jew, Apollos by name, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.

wesleynt@Acts:18:25 @ This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord, and being fervent in spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of Jesus, knowing only the baptism of John.

wesleynt@Acts:18:26 @ And he spake boldly in the synagogue. And Aquila and Priscilla hearing him, took him to their house, and explained to him the way of God more perfectly.

wesleynt@Acts:18:27 @ And when he was desirous to go over to Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him; who being come thither, greatly helped through grace them that had believed.

wesleynt@Acts:18:28 @ For he earnesty debated with the Jews in publick, shewing by the scriptures, that Jesus was the Christ.

wesleynt@Acts:19:1 @ Now while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper parts, came to Ephesus;

wesleynt@Acts:19:2 @ and finding certain disciples, He said to them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost, since ye believed? And they said to him, Nay, we have not so much as heard, Whether there be any Holy Ghost.

wesleynt@Acts:19:3 @ He said to them, Into what then were ye baptized? And they said, Into John's baptism.

wesleynt@Acts:19:4 @ And Paul said, John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe on him that was to come after him, that is on Jesus.

wesleynt@Acts:19:5 @ And hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

wesleynt@Acts:19:6 @ And Paul laying his hands on them, the Holy Ghost came upon them, and they spake with tongues and prophesied.

wesleynt@Acts:19:7 @ And they were in all about twelve men. And going into the synagogue,

wesleynt@Acts:19:8 @ he spake boldly, for three months discoursing and evincing the things concerning the kingdom of God.

wesleynt@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were hardened, and would not believe, but spake reproachfully of the way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, discoursing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.

wesleynt@Acts:19:10 @ And this was done for the space of two years, so that all the inhabitants of Asia, both Jews and Greeks, heard the word of the Lord.

wesleynt@Acts:19:11 @ And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul,

wesleynt@Acts:19:12 @ So that handkerchiefs or aprons were carried from his body to the sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits came out of them.

wesleynt@Acts:19:13 @ And some of the vagabond Jews, who were exorcists, undertook to name the name of the Lord Jesus, over those who had evil spirits, saying, We adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preacheth.

wesleynt@Acts:19:14 @ And there were seven sons of one Sceva a Jewish chief priest, who did this.

wesleynt@Acts:19:15 @ But the evil spirit answering said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?

wesleynt@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit was, leaping upon them, and getting the mastery of them, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

wesleynt@Acts:19:17 @ And this was known to all both Jews and Greeks dwelling at Ephesus, and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

wesleynt@Acts:19:18 @ And many of those who believed came, confessing and openly declaring their deeds.

wesleynt@Acts:19:19 @ Many also of those who had practised curious arts, bringing their books together, burnt them before all men, and they computed the value of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.

wesleynt@Acts:19:20 @ So powerfully did the word of God grow and prevail.

wesleynt@Acts:19:21 @ After these things were ended, Paul purposed in spirit, having passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must see Rome also.

wesleynt@Acts:19:22 @ And having sent two of those who ministred to him, Timothy and Erastus, into Macedonia, he himself staid in Asia for a season.

wesleynt@Acts:19:23 @ And about that time, there arose no small tumult concerning the way.

wesleynt@Acts:19:24 @ For a man named Demetrius, a silver smith, who made silver shrines of Diana, procured no small gain to the artificers:

wesleynt@Acts:19:25 @ Whom having gathered together, with the workmen employed in such things, he said, Sirs, ye know, that our maintenance arises from this occupation.

wesleynt@Acts:19:26 @ But ye see and hear, that not at Ephesus only, but almost through all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned aside much people, saying, That they are not gods, which are made with hands.

wesleynt@Acts:19:27 @ So that there is danger, not only that this our craft should be set at nought, but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her majesty destroyed, whom all Asia, and the world worshipeth.

wesleynt@Acts:19:28 @ And hearing this, they were filled with rage, and cried out, saying, The great Diana of the Ephesians.

wesleynt@Acts:19:29 @ And the whole city was filled with confusion; and they rushed with one accord into the theatre, dragging with them Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's fellow-travellers.

wesleynt@Acts:19:30 @ And when Paul would have gone in to the people, the disciples would not suffer him.

wesleynt@Acts:19:31 @ And some also of the principal officers of Asia, being his friends, sent to him and desired, that he would not venture himself into the theatre.

wesleynt@Acts:19:32 @ Some therefore cried one thing, and some another; for the assembly was confused, and the greater part did not know, for what they were come together.

wesleynt@Acts:19:33 @ And they thrust Alexander forward from among the multitude, the Jews pushing him on; and Alexander, waving with his hand, would have made a defence to the people.

wesleynt@Acts:19:34 @ But when they knew that he was a Jew, one voice arose from them all, crying out, for about two hours, The great Diana of the Ephesians.

wesleynt@Acts:19:35 @ But the register, having pacified the people, said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there who knoweth not, that the city of the Ephesians is a worshiper of the great Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?

wesleynt@Acts:19:36 @ Seeing then these things cannot be denied, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.

wesleynt@Acts:19:37 @ For ye have brought these men, who are neither robbers of temples, nor blasphemers of your goddess.

wesleynt@Acts:19:38 @ If then Demetrius and the artificers that are with him, have a charge against any one, the courts are held, and there are proconsuls; let them implead one another.

wesleynt@Acts:19:39 @ But if ye inquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.

wesleynt@Acts:19:40 @ And indeed we are in danger to be questioned for sedition, concerning this day; there being no cause, whereby we can account for this concourse.

wesleynt@Acts:19:41 @ And having said these things, he dismissed the assembly.

wesleynt@Acts:20:1 @ And after the tumult was ceased, Paul calling the disciples to him, and having taken his leave of them, departed to go into Macedonia.

wesleynt@Acts:20:2 @ And having gone through those parts, and exhorted them with much discourse, he came into Greece.

wesleynt@Acts:20:3 @ And having abode there three months, an ambush being laid for him by the Jews, as he was about to sail into Syria, he determined to return by Macedonia.

wesleynt@Acts:20:4 @ And there accompanied him to Asia Sopater of Berea, and of the Thessalonians Aristarchus, and Secundus, and Caius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.

wesleynt@Acts:20:5 @ These going before, staid for us at Troas, And we set sail from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread,

wesleynt@Acts:20:6 @ and came to them at Troas in five days, where we abode seven days.

wesleynt@Acts:20:7 @ And on the first day of the week, when we were met together to break bread, Paul being to depart on the morrow, preached to them, and continued his discourse till midnight.

wesleynt@Acts:20:8 @ And there were many lamps in the upper room where they were assembled.

wesleynt@Acts:20:9 @ And a certain young man, named Eutychus, sitting in a window, fell into a deep sleep: and as Paul still continued his discourse, being overpowered with sleep, he fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead.

wesleynt@Acts:20:11 @ And going up again, and having broken bread, he conversed long with them, even till break of day, and so departed.

wesleynt@Acts:20:12 @ And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

wesleynt@Acts:20:13 @ But we going before into the ship, sailed to Assos, where we were to take up Paul; for so he had appointed, being himself to go on foot.

wesleynt@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met us at Assos, we took him up and came to Mitylene.

wesleynt@Acts:20:15 @ And sailing thence, we came the following day over-against Chios, and the next day we touched at Samos, and having tarried at Trogyllium, the day after came to Miletus.

wesleynt@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, that he might not spend any time in Asia; for he hasted, if it were possible, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.

wesleynt@Acts:20:17 @ And sending to Ephesus from Miletus, he called thither the elders of the church.

wesleynt@Acts:20:18 @ And when they were come to him, he said to them, Ye know in what manner I have conversed among you, all the time from the first day I came into Asia,

wesleynt@Acts:20:19 @ Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and trials which befell me through the ambushes of the Jews:

wesleynt@Acts:20:20 @ And that I have with-held nothing which was profitable, but have preached to you, and taught you, publickly and from house to house:

wesleynt@Acts:20:22 @ And now behold, being bound by the Spirit, I go to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:

wesleynt@Acts:20:23 @ Save that the Holy Ghost testifieth to me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.

wesleynt@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life precious to myself, so I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

wesleynt@Acts:20:25 @ And now I know that ye all among whom I have conversed, proclaiming the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

wesleynt@Acts:20:26 @ Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men:

wesleynt@Acts:20:27 @ For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

wesleynt@Acts:20:28 @ Take heed therefore to yourselves and to the whole flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

wesleynt@Acts:20:29 @ For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

wesleynt@Acts:20:30 @ Yea, from among yourselves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

wesleynt@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch, remembering that for three years, I ceased not to warn every one, night and day, with tears.

wesleynt@Acts:20:32 @ And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, who is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among them that are sanctified.

wesleynt@Acts:20:34 @ Yea, you yourselves know, that these hands have ministred to my necessities, and to them that were with me.

wesleynt@Acts:20:35 @ I have shewed you all things, that thus labouring ye ought to help the infirm, and to remember the word of the Lord Jesus, which he himself said, It is happier to give than to receive.

wesleynt@Acts:20:36 @ And having said these things, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.

wesleynt@Acts:20:37 @ And they all wept sore, and falling on Paul's neck kissed him,

wesleynt@Acts:20:38 @ Sorrowing most for that word which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they conducted him to the ship.

wesleynt@Acts:21:1 @ And when we were torn away from them, and had set sail, we ran with a strait course to Coos, and the next day to Rhodes, and thence to Patara.

wesleynt@Acts:21:2 @ And finding a ship passing over to Phenicia, we went aboard and set sail.

wesleynt@Acts:21:3 @ And coming within sight of Cyprus, and leaving it on the left-hand, we sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her burden.

wesleynt@Acts:21:4 @ And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days, who told Paul by the Spirit, Not to go up to Jerusalem.

wesleynt@Acts:21:5 @ But when we had finished these days, we departed and went our way; and they all attended us out of the city, with their wives and children: and kneeling down on the sea-shore we prayed.

wesleynt@Acts:21:6 @ And having embraced each other we took ship, and they returned home.

wesleynt@Acts:21:7 @ And finishing our voyage, we came from Tyre to Ptolemais, and saluting the brethren, we abode with them one day.

wesleynt@Acts:21:8 @ And the next day, we departed and came to Cesarea; and entring into the house of Philip the Evangelist, who was one of the seven, we abode with him.

wesleynt@Acts:21:9 @ And he had four daughters, virgins, who were prophetesses.

wesleynt@Acts:21:10 @ And as we tarried many days, a certain prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judea.

wesleynt@Acts:21:11 @ And coming to us, he took up Paul's girdle, and binding his own feet and hands, said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man whose girdle this is, and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.

wesleynt@Acts:21:12 @ And when we heard these things, both we, and they of the place, besought him, not to go up to Jerusalem.

wesleynt@Acts:21:13 @ But Paul answered, What mean ye, weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem, for the name of the Lord Jesus.

wesleynt@Acts:21:14 @ And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.

wesleynt@Acts:21:15 @ And after these days, we took up our carriages, and went up to Jerusalem.

wesleynt@Acts:21:16 @ And some of the disciples also from Cesarea went with us, and brought us to one Mnason, a Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.

wesleynt@Acts:21:17 @ And when we were come up to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

wesleynt@Acts:21:18 @ And the next day, Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.

wesleynt@Acts:21:19 @ And having saluted them, he gave them a particular account of those things which God had done among the Gentiles by his ministry.

wesleynt@Acts:21:20 @ And having heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of believing Jews there are, and they are all zealous for the law.

wesleynt@Acts:21:21 @ But they have been informed concerning thee, that thou teachest the Jews who are among the Gentiles, to apostatize from Moses, telling them, not to circumcise their children, nor to walk after the customs.

wesleynt@Acts:21:22 @ What is it therefore? The multitude must needs come together; for they will hear that thou art come.

wesleynt@Acts:21:23 @ Therefore do this that we say to thee: there are with us four men, who have a vow on them:

wesleynt@Acts:21:24 @ Take them and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all will know, that there is nothing of those things which they have heard of thee; but that thou thyself walkest orderly, keeping the law.

wesleynt@Acts:21:25 @ As touching the Gentiles that believe, we have written and determined, that they should observe no such thing; save only that they keep themselves from what is offered to idols, and from blood, and from what is strangled, and from fornication.

wesleynt@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them, entered into the temple, declaring the accomplishment of the days of purification, till the offering should be offered for every one of them.

wesleynt@Acts:21:27 @ And when the seven days were about to be accomplished, the Jews that were from Asia seeing him in the temple,

wesleynt@Acts:21:28 @ stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him, Crying out, Men of Israel, help! This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: yea, and hath even brought Greeks into the temple, and polluted this holy place.

wesleynt@Acts:21:29 @ For they had before seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, whom they supposed Paul had brought into the temple.

wesleynt@Acts:21:30 @ And the whole city was moved, and the people ran together; and laying hold on Paul, they dragged him out of the temple: and immediately the gates were shut.

wesleynt@Acts:21:31 @ And as they went about to kill him, word came to the tribune of the cohort, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar:

wesleynt@Acts:21:32 @ Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them; and when they saw the tribune and the soldiers, they ceased from beating Paul.

wesleynt@Acts:21:33 @ Then the tribune came near, and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains, and inquired, Who he was, and what he had done?

wesleynt@Acts:21:34 @ But some among the multitude cried out one thing, some another; and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle.

wesleynt@Acts:21:35 @ But when he came upon the stairs, he was borne of the soldiers, through the violence of the people.

wesleynt@Acts:21:36 @ For the multitude of people followed after, crying, Away with him.

wesleynt@Acts:21:37 @ And as Paul was about to be brought into the castle, he said to the chief captain, May I speak to thee?

wesleynt@Acts:21:38 @ Who said, Canst thou speak Greek? Art not thou that Egyptian, who before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out four thousand murtherers into the wilderness?

wesleynt@Acts:21:39 @ But Paul said, I am a man who am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and I beseech thee, suffer me to speak to the people.

wesleynt@Acts:21:40 @ And when he had given him leave, Paul standing on the stairs, waved his hand to the people: and a great silence being made, he spake to them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,

wesleynt@Acts:22:1 @ Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye now my defence unto you.

wesleynt@Acts:22:2 @ (And when they heard that he addressed them in the Hebrew tongue, they kept the more silence:

wesleynt@Acts:22:3 @ and he saith) I am verily a Jew, born at Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and accurately instructed in the law of our fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.

wesleynt@Acts:22:4 @ And I persecuted this way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women: As likewise the high priest is my witness, and all the estate of the elders:

wesleynt@Acts:22:5 @ from whom also I received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them who were there to Jerusalem to be punished.

wesleynt@Acts:22:6 @ But as I journeyed and drew near to Damascus, about noon suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me.

wesleynt@Acts:22:7 @ And I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

wesleynt@Acts:22:8 @ And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.

wesleynt@Acts:22:9 @ And they that were with me, saw the light, and were terrified; but they did not hear the voice of him that spake to me, And I said, What shall I do, Lord?

wesleynt@Acts:22:10 @ And the Lord said to me, Rise and go into Damascus, and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed thee to do.

wesleynt@Acts:22:11 @ And as I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand by them that were with me, I came into Damascus.

wesleynt@Acts:22:12 @ And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law,

wesleynt@Acts:22:13 @ well reported of by all the Jews that dwelt there, Coming to me, stood and said to me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.

wesleynt@Acts:22:14 @ And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, to know his will, and see that Just one, and hear the voice of his mouth.

wesleynt@Acts:22:15 @ For thou shalt be his witness to all men, of what thou hast seen and heard.

wesleynt@Acts:22:16 @ And now, why tarriest thou? Arise and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

wesleynt@Acts:22:17 @ And when I was returned to Jerusalem, and was praying in the temple,

wesleynt@Acts:22:18 @ I was in a trance, And saw him saying to me, Make haste and depart quickly out of Jerusalem; for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.

wesleynt@Acts:22:19 @ And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned, and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee.

wesleynt@Acts:22:20 @ And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by and consenting to his death, and kept the garments of them that slew him.

wesleynt@Acts:22:21 @ But he said to me, Depart: for I will send thee far off to the Gentiles.

wesleynt@Acts:22:22 @ And they heard him to this word, and then lifted up their voice and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth; for it is not fit that he should live.

wesleynt@Acts:22:23 @ And as they cried out, and rent their garments, and cast dust into the air,

wesleynt@Acts:22:24 @ The tribune commanded him to be brought into the castle, and ordered him to be examined by scourging, that he might know, for what cause they cried so against him.

wesleynt@Acts:22:25 @ And as they were binding him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a Roman, even uncondemned?

wesleynt@Acts:22:26 @ The centurion hearing it, went and told the tribune, saying, Consider what thou art about to do; for this man is a Roman.

wesleynt@Acts:22:27 @ Then the tribune came and said to him, Tell me, Art thou a Roman?

wesleynt@Acts:22:28 @ He said, Yea. And the tribune answered, I purchased this freedom with a great sum of money.

wesleynt@Acts:22:29 @ And Paul said, But I was free-born. Then they who were going to examine him, immediately departed from him: and the tribune was afraid, after he knew he was a Roman, because he had bound him.

wesleynt@Acts:22:30 @ And on the morrow, desiring to know the certainty, what he was accused of by the Jews, he loosed him from his bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all the council to come, and bringing Paul down, set him before them.

wesleynt@Acts:23:1 @ And Paul earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God till this day.

wesleynt@Acts:23:2 @ And Ananias the high priest commanded them that stood by, to smite him on the mouth.

wesleynt@Acts:23:3 @ Then said Paul to him, God is about to smite thee, thou whited wall. For sittest thou to judge me according to the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?

wesleynt@Acts:23:4 @ But they that stood by said, Revilest thou God's high priest?

wesleynt@Acts:23:5 @ Then said Paul, I was not aware, brethren, that it was the high priest; for it is written, Thou shalt not revile the ruler of thy people.

wesleynt@Acts:23:6 @ But Paul perceiving, that the one part were Saducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee; for the hope of the resurrection of the dead am I called in question.

wesleynt@Acts:23:7 @ And when he had said this, there arose a contention between the Pharisees and the Saducees: and the multitude was divided.

wesleynt@Acts:23:8 @ For the Saducees say, there is no resurrection, neither angel nor spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.

wesleynt@Acts:23:9 @ And there was a great clamour: and the scribes of the Pharisees side arising, contended, saying, We find no evil in this man; but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.

wesleynt@Acts:23:10 @ And as a great disturbance arose, the tribune fearing lest Paul should be torn in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the castle.

wesleynt@Acts:23:11 @ And the night following, the Lord standing by him, said, Be of good courage, Paul: for as thou hast testified the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so thou must testify at Rome also.

wesleynt@Acts:23:12 @ And when it was day, some of the Jews entering into a conspiracy, bound themselves under a curse, saying, That they would neither eat nor drink, till they had killed Paul.

wesleynt@Acts:23:13 @ And they were more than forty, who had made this confederacy.

wesleynt@Acts:23:14 @ And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves by a solemn curse, not to taste anything, till we have killed Paul.

wesleynt@Acts:23:15 @ Now therefore ye with the council signify to the tribune, that he bring him down to you to-morrow, as though ye would more accurately examine the things concerning him: and we, before he came near, are ready to kill him.

wesleynt@Acts:23:16 @ But Paul's sister's son, hearing of the ambush, came, and entering into the castle, told Paul.

wesleynt@Acts:23:17 @ And Paul calling to him one of the centurions, said, Conduct this young man to the tribune; for he hath something to tell him.

wesleynt@Acts:23:18 @ So he took and led him to the tribune, and said, Paul the prisoner, calling me to him, desired me, to bring this young man to thee, who hath something to tell thee.

wesleynt@Acts:23:19 @ And the tribune taking him by the hand, and going aside privately asked, What is it, that thou hast to tell me?

wesleynt@Acts:23:20 @ And he said, The Jews have agreed to ask thee, to bring down Paul to-morrow to the council, as if they would enquire something concerning him more accurately.

wesleynt@Acts:23:21 @ But do not yield to them; for there are more than forty of them lie in wait, who have bound themselves with a curse, neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now are they ready, expecting a promise from thee.

wesleynt@Acts:23:22 @ So the tribune dismissed the young man, having charged him, Tell no man, that thou hast discovered these things to me.

wesleynt@Acts:23:23 @ And having called to him two of the centurions, he said, Prepare two hundred soldiers to go to Cesarea, and seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen, by the third hour of the night.

wesleynt@Acts:23:24 @ And provide beasts, to set Paul upon, and conduct him safe to Felix the governor.

wesleynt@Acts:23:25 @ And he wrote a letter after this manner, Claudius Lysias to the most excellent Governor Felix, greeting.

wesleynt@Acts:23:26 @ As this man was seized by the Jews,

wesleynt@Acts:23:27 @ and about to be killed by them, I came with the soldiery and rescued him, having learned, that he was a Roman.

wesleynt@Acts:23:28 @ And desiring to know the crime of which they accused him, I brought him before their council: Whom I found to be accused concerning questions of their law,

wesleynt@Acts:23:30 @ And when it was shewn me, that an ambush was about to be laid for the man by the Jews, I immediately sent him to thee, commanding his accusers also, to say before thee what they have against him. Farewel.

wesleynt@Acts:23:31 @ The soldiers therefore, taking Paul, as it was commanded them, brought him by night to Antipatris.

wesleynt@Acts:23:32 @ On the morrow they returned to the castle, leaving the horsemen to go with him:

wesleynt@Acts:23:33 @ Who entering into Cesarea, and delivering the letter to the governor, presented Paul also before him.

wesleynt@Acts:23:34 @ And having read it, he asked, of what province he was?

wesleynt@Acts:23:35 @ And being informed, that he was of Cilicia, I will give thee, said he, a thorough hearing, when thy accusers also are come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod's palace.

wesleynt@Acts:24:1 @ And after five days, Ananias the high priest came down with the elders, and a certain orator, named Tertullus; and appeared before the governor against Paul.

wesleynt@Acts:24:2 @ And he being called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, Seeing we enjoy great peace through thee, and that very worthy deeds are done to this nation by thy prudence always, and in all places, We accept it, most excellent Felix, with all thankfulness.

wesleynt@Acts:24:3 @ But that I may not trouble thee farther,

wesleynt@Acts:24:4 @ I beseech thee of thy clemency to hear us a few words.

wesleynt@Acts:24:5 @ For we have found this man, a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes:

wesleynt@Acts:24:6 @ Who hath also attempted to profane the temple; whom we seized and would have judged according to our law.

wesleynt@Acts:24:7 @ But Lysias the tribune coming upon us, with great violence took him away out of our hands,

wesleynt@Acts:24:8 @ Commanding his accusers to come to thee, whereby thou mayst thyself on examination, take knowledge of all these things of which we accuse him.

wesleynt@Acts:24:9 @ And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so.

wesleynt@Acts:24:10 @ Then Paul, after the governor had made a sign to him to speak, answered, Knowing thou hast been for several years a judge to this nation, I the more chearfully answer for myself:

wesleynt@Acts:24:12 @ And they neither found me disputing with any man in the temple, nor making an insurrection among the people, either in the synagogues or in the city.

wesleynt@Acts:24:13 @ Nor can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me. But this I confess unto thee,

wesleynt@Acts:24:14 @ that after the way, which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:

wesleynt@Acts:24:15 @ Having hope in God, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and of the unjust, which they themselves also expect.

wesleynt@Acts:24:18 @ Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purifying in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult:

wesleynt@Acts:24:19 @ Who ought to have been present before thee, and to accuse me, if they had any thing against me.

wesleynt@Acts:24:20 @ Or let these themselves say, what crime they found in me, when I stood before the council,

wesleynt@Acts:24:21 @ Unless it be concerning this one word, that I cried, standing among them, Touching the resurrection of the dead, I am called in question by you this day.

wesleynt@Acts:24:22 @ And when Felix heard these things, he put them off, saying, After I have been more accurately informed concerning this way, when Lysias the tribune cometh down, I will take full cognisance of your affair.

wesleynt@Acts:24:23 @ And he commanded the centurion to keep Paul, and let him have liberty, and to hinder none of his friends from assisting or coming to him.

wesleynt@Acts:24:24 @ And after some days, Felix coming with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jewess, sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.

wesleynt@Acts:24:25 @ And as he reasoned concerning justice, temperance, and the judgment to come, Felix being terrified, answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee.

wesleynt@Acts:24:26 @ And he hoped also that money would have been given him by Paul to release him; therefore he sent for him the oftner, and discoursed with him.

wesleynt@Acts:24:27 @ But after two years, Felix was succeeded by Portius Festus: and Felix desiring to gratify the Jews, left Paul bound.

wesleynt@Acts:25:1 @ Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he went up from Cesarea to Jerusalem.

wesleynt@Acts:25:2 @ Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews, appeared before him against Paul and besought him, Begging favour against him,

wesleynt@Acts:25:3 @ that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying an ambush to kill him by the way.

wesleynt@Acts:25:4 @ But Festus answered, That Paul should be kept at Cesarea, and that he himself would depart thither shortly.

wesleynt@Acts:25:5 @ Therefore let those of you, said he, who are able, go down with me and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.

wesleynt@Acts:25:6 @ And having tarried among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Cesarea; and the next day, sitting on the judgment-seat, he commanded Paul to be brought.

wesleynt@Acts:25:7 @ And when he was come, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem, stood round about him, bringing many and heavy accusations against Paul, which they were not able to prove:

wesleynt@Acts:25:8 @ While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Cesar have I offended at all.

wesleynt@Acts:25:9 @ But Festus, willing to gratify the Jews, answered Paul and said, Art thou willing to go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged before me concerning these things?

wesleynt@Acts:25:10 @ Then said Paul, I am standing at Cesar's judgment-seat, where I ought to be judged: I have done no wrong to the Jews, as thou also very well knowest.

wesleynt@Acts:25:11 @ For if indeed I have done wrong, and have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there is nothing of the things whereof these accuse me, no man can give me up to them.

wesleynt@Acts:25:12 @ I appeal to Cesar. Then Festus, having conferred with the council answered, Hast thou appealed to Cesar? To Cesar shalt thou go.

wesleynt@Acts:25:14 @ And when they had been there many days, Festus declared the case of Paul to the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix,

wesleynt@Acts:25:15 @ About whom when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and elders of the Jews informed me, desiring judgment against him.

wesleynt@Acts:25:16 @ To whom I answered, It is not the custom of the Romans, to give up any man, till he that is accused have the accusers face to face, and have liberty to make his defence, touching the crime laid to his charge.

wesleynt@Acts:25:17 @ When therefore they were come hither, I without any delay sat at the judgment seat the next day, and commanded the man to be brought forth.

wesleynt@Acts:25:18 @ Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought no accusation of such things as I supposed,

wesleynt@Acts:25:19 @ But had certain questions against him, relating to their own religious worship, and about one Jesus that was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

wesleynt@Acts:25:20 @ And as I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked, If he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged concerning these matters?

wesleynt@Acts:25:21 @ But Paul appealing to be kept for the hearing of Augustus, I command him to be kept till I could send him to Cesar.

wesleynt@Acts:25:22 @ Then Agrippa said to Festus, I would also hear the man myself. And he said, To-morrow thou shalt hear him.

wesleynt@Acts:25:23 @ And on the morrow, when Agrippa was come and Bernice with great pomp, and were entered into the place of audience, with the tribunes and principal men of the city, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought forth.

wesleynt@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all ye who are present with us, ye see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have pleaded with me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying out, that he ought not to live any longer.

wesleynt@Acts:25:25 @ But when I found, that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and he had himself appealed to the Emperor, I determined to send him:

wesleynt@Acts:25:26 @ Of whom I have nothing certain to send to my lord: wherefore I have brought him before you, and especially before thee, O king Agrippa, that after examination taken, I may have somewhat to write.

wesleynt@Acts:25:27 @ For it seemeth to me unreasonable, to send a prisoner, and not to signify also the crimes alledged against him.

wesleynt@Acts:26:1 @ Then Agrippa said to Paul, It is permitted thee to speak for thyself.

wesleynt@Acts:26:2 @ And Paul, stretching forth his hand, made his defence. I think myself happy, King Agrippa, that I am this day to make my defence before thee, concerning all those things whereof I am accused by the Jews,

wesleynt@Acts:26:3 @ Who art accurately acquainted with all the customs and questions which are among the Jews, wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

wesleynt@Acts:26:4 @ The manner of my life from my youth which was from the beginning among my own nation at Jerusalem,

wesleynt@Acts:26:5 @ all the Jews know, Who knew me from the first, (if they would testify) that I lived a Pharisee, after the strictest sect of our religion.

wesleynt@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand in judgment, for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers:

wesleynt@Acts:26:7 @ To which our twelve tribes, worshiping continually night and day, hope to attain: concerning which hope, King Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews.

wesleynt@Acts:26:8 @ What? Is it judged by you an incredible thing, that God should raise the dead?

wesleynt@Acts:26:9 @ I indeed thought myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth:

wesleynt@Acts:26:10 @ Which also I did in Jerusalem: and having received authority from the chief priests, I shut up many of the saints in prisons, and when they were killed, I gave my vote against them.

wesleynt@Acts:26:11 @ And frequently punishing them in all the synagogues, I compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.

wesleynt@Acts:26:12 @ Whereupon as I was going to Damascus,

wesleynt@Acts:26:13 @ with authority and commission from the chief priests, At mid-day, O king, I saw in the way, a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round me and them that journeyed with me.

wesleynt@Acts:26:14 @ And when we were all fallen down to the earth, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? It is hard for thee to kick against the goads.

wesleynt@Acts:26:16 @ And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. But rise and stand upon thy feet; for I have appeared to thee for this purpose, to ordain thee a minister and a witness, both of the things which thou hast seen,

wesleynt@Acts:26:17 @ and of those in which I will appear to thee, Delivering thee from the people,

wesleynt@Acts:26:18 @ and the Gentiles, to whom I now send thee, To open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God; that they may receive through faith which is in me, forgiveness of sins, and an inheritance among them that are sanctified.

wesleynt@Acts:26:19 @ From that time, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,

wesleynt@Acts:26:20 @ But first to them at Damascus and at Jerusalem, and through all the country of Judea, and then to the Gentiles I declare, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.

wesleynt@Acts:26:21 @ For these things the Jews seizing me in the temple, attempted to kill me with their own hands.

wesleynt@Acts:26:22 @ But having obtained help from God, I continue till this day, testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what both the prophets and Moses have declared should be,

wesleynt@Acts:26:23 @ That the Christ having suffered, and being the first who rose from the dead, should shew light to the people and to the Gentiles.

wesleynt@Acts:26:24 @ And as he was thus making his defence, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself, much learning doth make thee mad.

wesleynt@Acts:26:25 @ But he said, I am not mad, most excellent Festus, but utter the words of truth and sobriety.

wesleynt@Acts:26:26 @ For the king knoweth of these things; to whom also I speak with freedom; for I am persuaded none of these things are hidden from him; for this was not done in a corner.

wesleynt@Acts:26:27 @ King Agrippa, Believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest.

wesleynt@Acts:26:28 @ Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

wesleynt@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but likewise all that hear me, were this day both almost and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.

wesleynt@Acts:26:30 @ And as he said this, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them.

wesleynt@Acts:26:31 @ And as they were going away, they spake one to another, saying, This man doth nothing worthy of death, or of bonds.

wesleynt@Acts:26:32 @ And Agrippa said to Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Cesar.

wesleynt@Acts:27:1 @ And as soon as it was determined, that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul, and certain other prisoners, to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan Cohort.

wesleynt@Acts:27:2 @ And going aboard a ship of Adramyttium, that was to sail by the coasts of Asia, we set sail, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

wesleynt@Acts:27:3 @ And the next day we reached Sidon. And Julius treating Paul courteously, permitted him to go to his friends, to refresh himself.

wesleynt@Acts:27:4 @ And setting sail from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

wesleynt@Acts:27:5 @ And having sailed through the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.

wesleynt@Acts:27:6 @ And the centurion finding a ship of Alexandria there, bound for Italy, put us on board of it.

wesleynt@Acts:27:7 @ And when we had sailed slowly many days, and were scarce come over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over-against Salmone.

wesleynt@Acts:27:8 @ And passing it with difficulty, we came to the Fair Havens, near which was the city Lasea.

wesleynt@Acts:27:9 @ And as much time was spent, and sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was already past,

wesleynt@Acts:27:10 @ Paul exhorted them, Saying to them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage is like to be with injury and much damage, not only to the lading and the ship, but also to our lives.

wesleynt@Acts:27:11 @ But the centurion regarded the master and the owner of the vessel, more than the things, which were spoken by Paul.

wesleynt@Acts:27:12 @ And as the haven was not convenient to winter in, the greater part advised to set sail from thence also, if by any means they might reach Phenice, to winter there, which is an haven of Crete looking to the south-west and north-west.

wesleynt@Acts:27:13 @ And as the south wind blew gently, supposing they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor, and sailed on close by Crete.

wesleynt@Acts:27:14 @ But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind called Euroclydon.

wesleynt@Acts:27:15 @ And the ship being caught, and not able to bear up against the wind, we let her drive.

wesleynt@Acts:27:16 @ And running under a certain Island called Clauda, we were hardly able to get masters of the boat:

wesleynt@Acts:27:17 @ Which having taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, they struck sail, and so were driven.

wesleynt@Acts:27:18 @ And as we were in an exceeding great storm, the next day they lightened the ship.

wesleynt@Acts:27:19 @ And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.

wesleynt@Acts:27:20 @ And as neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was then taken away.

wesleynt@Acts:27:21 @ But after long abstinence, Paul standing in the midst of them, said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened to me, and not have loosed from Crete, and so have avoided this injury and loss.

wesleynt@Acts:27:22 @ Yet now I exhort you to be of good courage; for there shall be no loss of any life among you, but of the ship only.

wesleynt@Acts:27:23 @ For there stood by me this night an angel of the God, whose I am, and whom I serve, Saying, Fear not, Paul;

wesleynt@Acts:27:24 @ thou must be presented before Cesar: and lo God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.

wesleynt@Acts:27:25 @ Wherefore, Sirs, take courage: for I trust in God, that it shall be even as it hath been spoken to me.

wesleynt@Acts:27:27 @ And when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in the Adriatic Sea, the sailors suspected, that they drew nigh some land.

wesleynt@Acts:27:28 @ And sounding, they found twenty fathoms; and having gone a little farther, sounding again, they found fifteen fathoms.

wesleynt@Acts:27:29 @ And fearing lest they should fall upon some rocky ground, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.

wesleynt@Acts:27:30 @ But when the sailors were attempting to flee out of the ship, and had let down the boat into the sea, under pretence that they were going to carry out anchors from the ship-head,

wesleynt@Acts:27:31 @ Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, Unless these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.

wesleynt@Acts:27:32 @ Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let it fall off.

wesleynt@Acts:27:33 @ And while the day was coming on, Paul exhorted them all to take food, saying, This day is the fourteenth that ye have tarried and continue fasting, having taken nothing.

wesleynt@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I exhort you to take food; for this is for your preservation; for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.

wesleynt@Acts:27:35 @ And having spoken thus, he took bread, and gave thanks to God before them all; and having broken it, he began to eat.

wesleynt@Acts:27:36 @ Then were they all incouraged, and they also took meat.

wesleynt@Acts:27:37 @ And we were in the ship in all, two hundred and seventy-six souls.

wesleynt@Acts:27:38 @ And when they were satisfied with food, they lightened the ship, casting out the wheat into the sea.

wesleynt@Acts:27:39 @ And when it was day, they did not know the land; but they observed a certain creek having a shore, into which they were minded, if possible, to thrust the ship:

wesleynt@Acts:27:40 @ And having taken up the anchors, they committed it to the sea, at the same time loosing the rudder-bands, and hoisting up the stay-sail to the wind, they made for the shore.

wesleynt@Acts:27:41 @ But falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship a ground; and the fore-part sticking fast, remained immovable, but the hinder-part was broken by the force of the waves.

wesleynt@Acts:27:42 @ And the counsel of the soldiers was, to kill the prisoners, lest any one should swim away and escape.

wesleynt@Acts:27:43 @ But the centurion, being desirous to save Paul, hindered them from their purpose, and commanded those that could swim, throwing themselves into the sea, first to get away to land,

wesleynt@Acts:27:44 @ And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship; and so it came to pass, that they all escaped safe to land.

wesleynt@Acts:28:1 @ And being escaped, we then knew, that the island was called Melita.

wesleynt@Acts:28:2 @ And the barbarians shewed us uncommon kindness; for having kindled a fire, they brought us all to it, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.

wesleynt@Acts:28:3 @ Now as Paul was gathering a bundle of sticks, and laying them on the fire, a viper coming from the heat, fastened upon his hand.

wesleynt@Acts:28:4 @ And when the barbarians saw the venomous animal hanging on his hand, they said one to another, Doubtless this man is a murderer, whom though he hath escaped the sea, vengeance hath not suffered to live.

wesleynt@Acts:28:5 @ But having shaken off the venomous animal into the fire, he felt no harm.

wesleynt@Acts:28:6 @ However they expected, that he would have swollen, or suddenly fallen down dead: but after having waited a considerable time, seeing no mischief befall him, they changed their minds and said, that he was a god.

wesleynt@Acts:28:7 @ And near that place was the estate of the chief man of the island, named Publius, who receiving us into his house, entertained us courteously three days.

wesleynt@Acts:28:8 @ Now the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and bloody flux; to whom Paul went in, and having prayed, laid his hands on him and healed him.

wesleynt@Acts:28:9 @ And when this was done, the rest also in the island who had disorders,

wesleynt@Acts:28:10 @ came and were healed, Who likewise honoured us with many honours, and when we departed, put on board such things as were necessary.

wesleynt@Acts:28:11 @ And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the island, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.

wesleynt@Acts:28:13 @ we tarried there three days, Whence coasting round, we came to Rhegium, and the south wind rising after one day, we came the next to Puteoli:

wesleynt@Acts:28:14 @ Where finding brethren, we were intreated to tarry with them seven days, and so we went toward Rome.

wesleynt@Acts:28:15 @ And the brethren having heard of us, came out thence to meet us, some as far as Appii Forum, and others to the Three Taverns, whom when Paul saw, he thanked God and took courage.

wesleynt@Acts:28:16 @ And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself, with the soldier that kept him.

wesleynt@Acts:28:17 @ And after three days, Paul called the chief of the Jews together. And when they were come together, he said to them, Brethren, though I have done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, yet have I been delivered a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans:

wesleynt@Acts:28:18 @ Who having examined me, were willing to have released me, because there was no cause of death in me.

wesleynt@Acts:28:19 @ But when the Jews opposed it, I was constrained to appeal to Cesar; not that I had any thing to accuse my nation of.

wesleynt@Acts:28:20 @ For this cause therefore have I intreated, to see and speak with you; for it is on account of the hope of Israel, that I am bound with this chain.

wesleynt@Acts:28:21 @ And they said to him, We have neither received letters from Judea concerning thee, nor hath any of the brethren coming hither, related or spoke any evil of thee.

wesleynt@Acts:28:22 @ But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest; for concerning this sect, we know, that it is every where spoken against.

wesleynt@Acts:28:23 @ And having appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, to whom he expounded the kingdom of God, testifying and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning till evening.

wesleynt@Acts:28:24 @ And some believed the things that were spoken, and some believed not.

wesleynt@Acts:28:25 @ And not agreeing with each other, they brake up the assembly, after Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by the prophet Isaiah to your fathers,

wesleynt@Acts:28:26 @ Saying, Go to this people and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand, and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive.

wesleynt@Acts:28:27 @ For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and with their ears they hear heavily, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

wesleynt@Acts:28:28 @ Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear.

wesleynt@Acts:28:29 @ And when he had said these things, the Jews departed, having great debating with each other.

wesleynt@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the gospel of God,

wesleynt@Romans:1:2 @ Which he had promised before, by his prophets in the holy scriptures,

wesleynt@Romans:1:4 @ who was of the seed of David, according to the flesh, But declared the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead,

wesleynt@Romans:1:5 @ By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith in all nations for his name, Among whom are ye also, the called of Jesus Christ:

wesleynt@Romans:1:7 @ who are beloved of God, called and holy, Grace to you, and peace from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

wesleynt@Romans:1:9 @ For God, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, is my witness, how incessantly I make mention of you,

wesleynt@Romans:1:13 @ Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I have often purposed to come to you, (though I have been hindred hitherto) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other Gentiles.

wesleynt@Romans:1:14 @ I am a debtor both to the Greeks and the barbarians, both to the wise and to the unwise.

wesleynt@Romans:1:15 @ Therefore, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also who are at Rome.

wesleynt@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel; for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth, both to the Jew and to the Gentile.

wesleynt@Romans:1:17 @ For the righteousness of God is revealed therein from faith to faith; as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

wesleynt@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven, against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who detain the truth in unrighteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:1:19 @ For what is to be known of God, is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it to them.

wesleynt@Romans:1:20 @ For those things of him which are invisible, both his eternal power and Godhead, are clearly seen from the creation of the world, being understood by the things which are made, so that they are without excuse:

wesleynt@Romans:1:21 @ Because knowing God, they did not glorify him as God, neither were thankful, but became vain in their reasonings, and their foolish heart was darkened.

wesleynt@Romans:1:22 @ Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

wesleynt@Romans:1:23 @ And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image in the likeness of corruptible man, and of birds, and of four-footed creatures and reptiles.

wesleynt@Romans:1:24 @ Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness in the desires of their hearts, to dishonour their bodies among themselves;

wesleynt@Romans:1:25 @ Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature above the creator, who is blessed for ever!

wesleynt@Romans:1:26 @ Amen. Therefore God gave them up to vile affections; for even their women changed the natural use to that which is against nature: And likewise also the men,

wesleynt@Romans:1:27 @ leaving the natural use of the women, burned in their lust toward each other, men with men working filthiness, and receiving in themselves the just recompence of their error.

wesleynt@Romans:1:28 @ And as they were not careful to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them up to an undiscerning mind, to do things not expedient, Filled with all injustice, maliciousness, covetousness, wickedness:

wesleynt@Romans:1:32 @ Who knowing the righteous judgment of God, that they who do such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in those that do them.

wesleynt@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest; for wherein thou judgest the other, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest dost the same things.

wesleynt@Romans:2:2 @ For we know that the judgment of God is according to truth, against them who do such things.

wesleynt@Romans:2:3 @ And thinkest thou this, O man, who judgest them that do such things, and dost the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

wesleynt@Romans:2:4 @ Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long suffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

wesleynt@Romans:2:5 @ But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up to thyself wrath in the day of wrath, and revelation, and righteous judgment of God?

wesleynt@Romans:2:6 @ Who will render to every one according to his works: To them that by patient continuance in well-doing seek for glory,

wesleynt@Romans:2:8 @ But to them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, shall be indignation and wrath,

wesleynt@Romans:2:9 @ tribulation and anguish, Even upon every soul of man who worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also the Gentile:

wesleynt@Romans:2:10 @ But glory, honour, and peace shall be to every one who worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile.

wesleynt@Romans:2:11 @ For there is no respect of persons with God.

wesleynt@Romans:2:12 @ For as many as have sinned without the law, shall also perish without the law; and as many as have sinned under the law, shall be judged by the law.

wesleynt@Romans:2:13 @ For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

wesleynt@Romans:2:14 @ For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these not having the law, are a law to themselves;

wesleynt@Romans:2:15 @ Who shew the work of the law written upon their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or even defending them,

wesleynt@Romans:2:16 @ In the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Christ Jesus, according to my gospel.

wesleynt@Romans:2:17 @ Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law,

wesleynt@Romans:2:18 @ and gloriest in God, And knowest his will, and discernest the things that differ, being instructed out of the law:

wesleynt@Romans:2:19 @ And art confident, that thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness, An instructer of the ignorant,

wesleynt@Romans:2:20 @ a teacher of babes, having the form of knowledge and truth in the law.

wesleynt@Romans:2:21 @ Thou therefore that teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? Thou that proclaimest, a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

wesleynt@Romans:2:23 @ Thou that gloriest in the law, dost thou by transgressing the law dishonour God?

wesleynt@Romans:2:24 @ For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

wesleynt@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision indeed profiteth, if thou keepest the law; but if thou art a transgressor of the law, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision.

wesleynt@Romans:2:26 @ Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

wesleynt@Romans:2:27 @ Yea, the uncircumcision that is by nature, fulfilling the law, shall judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision transgressest the law.

wesleynt@Romans:2:28 @ For he is not a Jew, who is one in outward shew, neither is that circumcision which is apparent in the flesh.

wesleynt@Romans:2:29 @ But he is a Jew, who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.

wesleynt@Romans:3:1 @ What then is the advantage of the Jew, or what the profit of the circumcision?

wesleynt@Romans:3:2 @ Much every way; chiefly in that they were intrusted with the oracles of God.

wesleynt@Romans:3:3 @ For what if some believed not? Shall their unbelief disannul the faithfulness of God?

wesleynt@Romans:3:4 @ God forbid: let God be true, and every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

wesleynt@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is not God unjust, who taketh vengeance?

wesleynt@Romans:3:6 @ I speak as a man. God forbid; for then how should God judge the world?

wesleynt@Romans:3:7 @ But if the truth of God hath abounded to his glory through my lie, why am I still judged as a sinner?

wesleynt@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we better than they? In no wise: for we have before proved all, both Jews and Gentiles, to be under sin.

wesleynt@Romans:3:10 @ As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one.

wesleynt@Romans:3:11 @ There is none that understandeth; there is none that seeketh after God.

wesleynt@Romans:3:12 @ They have all turned aside; they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doth good, no not one.

wesleynt@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues have they used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips.

wesleynt@Romans:3:15 @ Their feet are swift to shed blood;

wesleynt@Romans:3:16 @ Destruction and misery are in their ways,

wesleynt@Romans:3:17 @ And they have not known the way of peace:

wesleynt@Romans:3:18 @ The fear of God is not before their eyes.

wesleynt@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatsoever the law saith, it saith to them that are under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world be found guilty before God.

wesleynt@Romans:3:20 @ Therefore no flesh shall be justified in his sight by the works of the law; for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

wesleynt@Romans:3:21 @ But the righteousness of God without the law is now manifested, being attested by the law and the prophets,

wesleynt@Romans:3:22 @ Even the righteousness of God, by the faith of Jesus Christ, to all and upon all that believe; for there is no difference:

wesleynt@Romans:3:23 @ For all have sinned, and are fallen short of the glory of God,

wesleynt@Romans:3:24 @ And are justified freely by his grace, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus:

wesleynt@Romans:3:25 @ Whom God hath set forth as a propitiation, through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness by the remission of past sins, through the forbearance of God: For a demonstration,

wesleynt@Romans:3:26 @ I say, of his righteousness in this present time, that he might be just, and yet the justifier of him that believeth in Jesus.

wesleynt@Romans:3:27 @ Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works?

wesleynt@Romans:3:28 @ Nay, but by the law of faith. We conclude then, that a man is justified by faith, without the works of the law.

wesleynt@Romans:3:29 @ Is God the God of the Jews only, and not also of the Gentiles? Surely of the Gentiles also: Seeing it is one God who will justify the circumcision by faith,

wesleynt@Romans:3:30 @ and the uncircumcision through the same faith.

wesleynt@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

wesleynt@Romans:4:1 @ What shall we say then? That our father Abraham hath found according to the flesh?

wesleynt@Romans:4:2 @ If Abraham was justified by works, he hath whereof to glory: but he hath not in the sight of God.

wesleynt@Romans:4:3 @ For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:4:4 @ Now to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

wesleynt@Romans:4:5 @ But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is imputed to him for righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:4:6 @ So David also describeth the happiness of the man, to whom God imputeth righteousness without works:

wesleynt@Romans:4:7 @ Happy are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered;

wesleynt@Romans:4:8 @ Happy is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

wesleynt@Romans:4:9 @ Cometh this happiness then on the circumcision only, or on the uncircumcision also? For we say that faith was imputed to Abraham for righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:4:10 @ How was it then imputed? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

wesleynt@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith, which he had in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all who believe in uncircumcision, that righteousness may be imputed to them also,

wesleynt@Romans:4:12 @ And the father of the circumcision, to them who not only are of the circumcision, but also walk in the footsteps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.

wesleynt@Romans:4:13 @ For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham or to his seed by the law, but by the righteousness of faith.

wesleynt@Romans:4:14 @ For if they who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise of no effect.

wesleynt@Romans:4:15 @ Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.

wesleynt@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore it is of faith, that it might be of grace, that the promise might be firm to all the seed; not only to that which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all, (As it is written,

wesleynt@Romans:4:17 @ I have made thee a father of many nations) before God in whom he believed, as quickning the dead, and calling the things that are not, as though they were:

wesleynt@Romans:4:18 @ Who against hope believed in hope, that he should be the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

wesleynt@Romans:4:19 @ And not being weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, being about an hundred years old, nor the deadness of Sarah's womb.

wesleynt@Romans:4:20 @ He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God,

wesleynt@Romans:4:21 @ And being fully assured, that what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

wesleynt@Romans:4:22 @ And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:4:24 @ But on ours also, to whom it will be imputed, if we believe on him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead.

wesleynt@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ:

wesleynt@Romans:5:2 @ By whom also we have been introduced through faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

wesleynt@Romans:5:5 @ And hope shameth us not, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

wesleynt@Romans:5:6 @ For when we were yet without strength, in due time, Christ died for the ungodly.

wesleynt@Romans:5:7 @ Now one will scarce die for a just man: yet perhaps for the good man one would even dare to die.

wesleynt@Romans:5:9 @ Much more then being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

wesleynt@Romans:5:10 @ For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more being reconciled, we shall be saved through his life.

wesleynt@Romans:5:11 @ And not only so, but we also glory in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the reconciliation.

wesleynt@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore as by one man sin entered into the world and death by sin, even so death passed upon all men, in that all had sinned.

wesleynt@Romans:5:13 @ For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not imputed, where there is no law.

wesleynt@Romans:5:14 @ Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

wesleynt@Romans:5:15 @ Yet not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if by the offence of one many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, that of one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

wesleynt@Romans:5:16 @ And not as the loss by one that sinned, so is the gift; for the sentence was by one offence to condemnation; but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.

wesleynt@Romans:5:17 @ For if through one man's offence death reigned by one, they who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness, shall much more reign in life, by one, even Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@Romans:5:18 @ As therefore by one offence the sentence of death came upon all men to condemnation, so also by one righteousness the free gift came upon all men to justification of life.

wesleynt@Romans:5:19 @ For as by the disobedience of one man, many were constituted sinners, so by the obedience of one, many shall be constituted righteous.

wesleynt@Romans:5:20 @ But the law came in between, that the offence might abound: yet where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

wesleynt@Romans:6:1 @ What shall we say then? We will continue in sin that grace may abound?

wesleynt@Romans:6:2 @ God forbid. How shall we who are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

wesleynt@Romans:6:4 @ Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death, that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also should walk in newness of life.

wesleynt@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

wesleynt@Romans:6:6 @ Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that we might no longer serve sin.

wesleynt@Romans:6:7 @ For he that is dead is freed from sin.

wesleynt@Romans:6:9 @ Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead, dieth no more; death no more hath dominion over him.

wesleynt@Romans:6:10 @ For in that he died, he died to sin once for all; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

wesleynt@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore let not sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in the desires thereof.

wesleynt@Romans:6:13 @ Neither present your members to sin, as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members to God, as instruments of righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:6:14 @ For sin shall not have dominion over you; for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

wesleynt@Romans:6:15 @ What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.

wesleynt@Romans:6:16 @ Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are whom ye obey? Whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

wesleynt@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that, whereas ye were the servants of sin, ye have now obeyed from the heart the form of doctrine into which ye have been delivered.

wesleynt@Romans:6:18 @ Being then set free from sin, ye are become the servants of righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:6:19 @ I speak as a man, because of the weakness of your flesh. As ye have presented your members servants to uncleanness and iniquity, unto iniquity, so now present your members servants of righteousness, unto holiness.

wesleynt@Romans:6:20 @ For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:6:21 @ What fruit had ye then from those things whereof ye are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.

wesleynt@Romans:6:22 @ But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.

wesleynt@Romans:6:23 @ For death is the wages of sin; but eternal life is the gift of God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:7:1 @ Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law) that the law hath dominion over a man, as long as it liveth?

wesleynt@Romans:7:2 @ For the married woman is bound to her husband while he is alive; but if her husband be dead, she is freed from the law of her husband.

wesleynt@Romans:7:3 @ Therefore if she marry another man while her husband liveth, she will be called an adultress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law, so as to be no adultress, though she marry another man.

wesleynt@Romans:7:4 @ Thus ye also, my brethren, are dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye might be married to another, even to him who was raised from the dead, that we may bring forth fruit to God.

wesleynt@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, sinful passions, which were by the law, wrought in our members, so as to bring forth fruit unto death.

wesleynt@Romans:7:6 @ But now we are freed from the law, that whereby we were held being dead, so that we serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

wesleynt@Romans:7:7 @ What shall we say then? That the law is sin? God forbid. Yea, I should not have known sin, but for the law. I had not known lust, unless the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.

wesleynt@Romans:7:8 @ But sin taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of desire: for without the law sin was dead.

wesleynt@Romans:7:9 @ And I was once alive without the law; but when the commandment came,

wesleynt@Romans:7:10 @ sin revived, and I died, And the commandment, which was intended for life, this I found unto death.

wesleynt@Romans:7:11 @ For sin taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.

wesleynt@Romans:7:12 @ So that the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

wesleynt@Romans:7:13 @ Was then that which is good made death to me? God forbid: But sin: so that it appeared sin, working death in me by that which is good: so that sin might by the commandment become exceeding sinful.

wesleynt@Romans:7:14 @ We know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.

wesleynt@Romans:7:16 @ If then I do what I would not, I consent to the law, that it is good.

wesleynt@Romans:7:17 @ Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

wesleynt@Romans:7:19 @ For the good that I would, I do not; but the evil which I would not, that I do.

wesleynt@Romans:7:21 @ I find then a law, that when I would do good, evil is present with me.

wesleynt@Romans:7:22 @ For I delight in the law of God, after the inward man.

wesleynt@Romans:7:23 @ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and captivating me to the law of sin, which is in my members.

wesleynt@Romans:7:24 @ Wretched man that I am!

wesleynt@Romans:7:25 @ Who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God, through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then I myself with my mind serve the law of God, but with my flesh the law of sin.

wesleynt@Romans:8:1 @ Therefore there is now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

wesleynt@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath freed me from the law of sin and death.

wesleynt@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God hath done: sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, to be a sacrifice for sin, he hath condemned sin in the flesh:

wesleynt@Romans:8:4 @ That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

wesleynt@Romans:8:5 @ They that are after the flesh, mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

wesleynt@Romans:8:7 @ Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

wesleynt@Romans:8:8 @ So then they who are in the flesh cannot please God.

wesleynt@Romans:8:9 @ But ye are not in the flesh, but in the spirit, if the Spirit of God dwell in you. And if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

wesleynt@Romans:8:10 @ Now if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead because of sin, but the spirit is life because of righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:8:11 @ And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead, will also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

wesleynt@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

wesleynt@Romans:8:13 @ For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die; but if ye through the Spirit mortify the deeds of the flesh, ye shall live.

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

wesleynt@Romans:8:15 @ For ye have not received the Spirit of bondage again unto fear, but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

wesleynt@Romans:8:16 @ The same Spirit beareth witness with our spirits, that we are the children of God.

wesleynt@Romans:8:17 @ And if children, then heirs, heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ: if we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.

wesleynt@Romans:8:18 @ For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

wesleynt@Romans:8:19 @ For the earnest expectation of the creation waiteth for the revelation of the sons of God.

wesleynt@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by him who subjected it,

wesleynt@Romans:8:21 @ In hope that the creation itself shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption, into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

wesleynt@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that the whole creation groaneth together and travaileth together until now.

wesleynt@Romans:8:23 @ And not only they, but even we ourselves, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.

wesleynt@Romans:8:24 @ For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope; for what a man seeth, how doth he yet hope for?

wesleynt@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us, with groanings which cannot be uttered.

wesleynt@Romans:8:27 @ But he who searcheth the hearts, knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit: for he maketh intercession for the saints, according to God.

wesleynt@Romans:8:28 @ And we know, that all things work together for good, to them that love God, to them that are called according to his purpose.

wesleynt@Romans:8:29 @ For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated, conformable to the image of his Son, that he might be the first-born among many brethren.

wesleynt@Romans:8:30 @ And whom he predestinated, them he also called; and whom he called, them he also justified; and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

wesleynt@Romans:8:31 @ What shall we say then to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

wesleynt@Romans:8:32 @ He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

wesleynt@Romans:8:33 @ Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

wesleynt@Romans:8:34 @ Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is also at the right-hand of God, who likewise maketh intercession for us.

wesleynt@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall affliction, or distress, or persecution, or hunger, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

wesleynt@Romans:8:36 @ (As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long, we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)

wesleynt@Romans:8:37 @ Nay, in all these things we more than conquer, through him who hath loved us.

wesleynt@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers,

wesleynt@Romans:8:39 @ nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:9:1 @ I say the truth in Christ, I lie not; my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost?

wesleynt@Romans:9:2 @ That I have great sorrow and continual anguish in my heart.

wesleynt@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ, for my brethren, my kinsmen after the flesh:

wesleynt@Romans:9:4 @ Who are Israelites, whose is the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the worship of God, and the promises:

wesleynt@Romans:9:5 @ Whose are the fathers, and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is, over all, God, blessed for ever.

wesleynt@Romans:9:6 @ Not as if the word of God had fallen to the ground; for all are not Israel, who are of Israel.

wesleynt@Romans:9:7 @ Neither because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children, but in Isaac shall thy seed be called:

wesleynt@Romans:9:8 @ That is, not the children of the flesh are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

wesleynt@Romans:9:9 @ For this is the word of the promise, At this time I will come, and Sarah shall have a son.

wesleynt@Romans:9:10 @ And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man,

wesleynt@Romans:9:11 @ our father Isaac, The children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil (that the purpose of God according to election might stand not of works, but of him that called,) It was said to her, The elder shall serve the younger.

wesleynt@Romans:9:14 @ What shall we say then? Is there injustice with God? God forbid.

wesleynt@Romans:9:15 @ For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

wesleynt@Romans:9:16 @ It is not therefore of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

wesleynt@Romans:9:17 @ Moreover the scripture saith to Pharoah, For this very thing have I raised thee up, that I may shew my power in thee, and that my name may be declared through all the earth.

wesleynt@Romans:9:18 @ So then he hath mercy on whom he willeth, and whom he willeth, he hardneth.

wesleynt@Romans:9:19 @ But thou wilt say to me, Why doth he still find fault?

wesleynt@Romans:9:20 @ For who hath resisted his will? Nay, but who art thou, O man, that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?

wesleynt@Romans:9:21 @ Hath not the potter power over the clay, out of the same mass to make one vessel to honour, and another to dishonour?

wesleynt@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, being willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, yet endured with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted for destruction?

wesleynt@Romans:9:23 @ And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, whom he had before prepared for glory?

wesleynt@Romans:9:24 @ Even us whom he hath called, not only of the Jews, but also of the Gentiles:

wesleynt@Romans:9:25 @ As he saith also in Hosea, I will call them my people, who were not my people, and her beloved, who was not beloved.

wesleynt@Romans:9:26 @ And it shall come to pass, in the place where it was said to them, Ye are not my people, there shall they be called the sons of the living God.

wesleynt@Romans:9:27 @ Isaiah likewise crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, the remnant only shall be saved.

wesleynt@Romans:9:28 @ For the Lord is finishing and cutting short his account in righteousness; for the Lord will make a short account upon the earth.

wesleynt@Romans:9:29 @ And as Isaiah had said before, Unless the Lord of hosts had left us a seed, we had been as Sodom, and had been made like Gomorrah.

wesleynt@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That the Gentiles who followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is by faith:

wesleynt@Romans:9:31 @ But Israel following after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

wesleynt@Romans:9:32 @ Wherefore? Because they sought it, not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law: for they stumbled at that stumbling stone;

wesleynt@Romans:10:1 @ Brethren, the desire of my heart, and my prayer to God for Israel is, that they may be saved.

wesleynt@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them record, that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

wesleynt@Romans:10:3 @ For they being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

wesleynt@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

wesleynt@Romans:10:5 @ For Moses describeth the righteousness which is by the law, The man who doth these things shall live by them.

wesleynt@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness which is by faith speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven, (that is, to bring Christ down:)

wesleynt@Romans:10:7 @ Or who shall descend into the deep?

wesleynt@Romans:10:8 @ (that is, to bring Christ again from the dead) But what saith he? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart; that is, the word of faith which we preach:

wesleynt@Romans:10:9 @ That if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thy heart, that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

wesleynt@Romans:10:10 @ For with the heart man believeth to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.

wesleynt@Romans:10:11 @ For the scripture saith, Every one that believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

wesleynt@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord of all, is rich to all that call upon him.

wesleynt@Romans:10:13 @ For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord, shall be saved.

wesleynt@Romans:10:14 @ But how shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him, of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

wesleynt@Romans:10:15 @ But how shall they preach, unless they be sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them who bring the good tidings of peace, who bring the glad tidings of good things!

wesleynt@Romans:10:16 @ But all have not obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

wesleynt@Romans:10:17 @ Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

wesleynt@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily; their voice is gone into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

wesleynt@Romans:10:19 @ But I say, Hath not Israel known? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are not a nation; by a foolish nation I will anger you.

wesleynt@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaiah is very bold and saith, I was found by them that sought me not: I was made manifest to them that asked not after me.

wesleynt@Romans:10:21 @ Whereas with regard to Israel he saith, All the day have I stretched forth my hands to an unbelieving and gainsaying people.

wesleynt@Romans:11:1 @ I say then, Hath God rejected his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

wesleynt@Romans:11:2 @ God hath not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Know ye not what the scripture saith of Elijah? how he pleadeth with God against Israel,

wesleynt@Romans:11:3 @ Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thy altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.

wesleynt@Romans:11:4 @ But what saith the answer of God to him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

wesleynt@Romans:11:5 @ And so likewise at the present time, there is a remnant, according to the election of grace.

wesleynt@Romans:11:6 @ But if by grace, then it is no more of works: else grace is no longer grace. And if it be of works, then it is no more grace; else work is no longer work.

wesleynt@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh, but the election hath obtained, and the rest were blinded.

wesleynt@Romans:11:8 @ According as it is written, God hath given them a spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, unto this day.

wesleynt@Romans:11:9 @ And David saith, Let their table become a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and a recompence to them.

wesleynt@Romans:11:10 @ Let their eyes be darkened that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.

wesleynt@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, Have they stumbled so as to fall? God forbid. But by their fall salvation is come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.

wesleynt@Romans:11:12 @ But if their fall be the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more their fulness?

wesleynt@Romans:11:13 @ For I speak to you Gentiles, as I am the apostle of the Gentiles:

wesleynt@Romans:11:14 @ I magnify my office: If by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and save some of them.

wesleynt@Romans:11:15 @ For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what will the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?

wesleynt@Romans:11:16 @ For if the first-fruits be holy, so is the lump: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.

wesleynt@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and thou being a wild olive wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the good olive,

wesleynt@Romans:11:18 @ Boast not against the branches, but if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

wesleynt@Romans:11:19 @ Wilt thou say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in?

wesleynt@Romans:11:20 @ Well; they were broken off for unbelief, and thou standest by faith.

wesleynt@Romans:11:21 @ Be not high-minded, but fear. For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed left he also spare not thee.

wesleynt@Romans:11:22 @ Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God! Toward them that fell severity; but toward thee goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: else shalt thou also be cut off.

wesleynt@Romans:11:23 @ And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, shall be grafted in; for God is able to graft them in again.

wesleynt@Romans:11:24 @ For if thou wert cut off from the naturally wild olive-tree, and grafted contrary to nature into a good olive-tree; how much more shall these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive-tree?

wesleynt@Romans:11:25 @ Brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, (lest ye should be wise in your own conceits) that hardness is in part happened to Israel, till the fulness of the Gentiles be come in:

wesleynt@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written, The deliverer shall come out of Sion, and shall turn away iniquity from Jacob.

wesleynt@Romans:11:27 @ And this is my covenant with them, when I shall take away their sins.

wesleynt@Romans:11:28 @ With regard to the gospel, they are enemies for your sake; but as for the election, they are beloved, for the sake of their fathers.

wesleynt@Romans:11:29 @ For the gifts and the calling of God are without repentance.

wesleynt@Romans:11:30 @ As then ye were once disobedient to God, but have now obtained mercy through their disobedience:

wesleynt@Romans:11:31 @ So these also have now been disobedient, that through your mercy they may likewise find mercy.

wesleynt@Romans:11:32 @ For God hath shut up all together in disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.

wesleynt@Romans:11:33 @ O the depth of the riches, and wisdom, and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!

wesleynt@Romans:11:34 @ For who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been his counsellor?

wesleynt@Romans:12:1 @ I exhort you therefore, brethren, by the tender mercies of God, to present your bodies unto God, a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable, which is your reasonable service.

wesleynt@Romans:12:2 @ And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.

wesleynt@Romans:12:3 @ And I say, through the grace which is given to me, to every one that is among you, not to think of himself above what he ought to think, but to think soberly, according to the measure of faith which God hath distributed to every one.

wesleynt@Romans:12:4 @ For as in one body we are many members, and all members have not the same office,

wesleynt@Romans:12:5 @ So we being many are one body in Christ, and every one members of each other.

wesleynt@Romans:12:6 @ Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given us, whether it be prophesy, let us prophesy according to the analogy of faith:

wesleynt@Romans:12:7 @ Or ministry, let us wait on our ministring; or he that teacheth, on teaching; or he that exhorteth, on exhortation.

wesleynt@Romans:12:8 @ He that imparteth, let him do it with simplicity; he that presideth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with chearfulness.

wesleynt@Romans:12:10 @ In brotherly love be full of tender affection toward each other, in honour preferring one another:

wesleynt@Romans:12:11 @ Not slothful in business, servent in spirit, serving the Lord:

wesleynt@Romans:12:13 @ Communicate to the necessities of the saints, pursue hospitality, Bless them who persecute you;

wesleynt@Romans:12:15 @ Rejoice with them that rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

wesleynt@Romans:12:16 @ Agree in the same affection toward each other.

wesleynt@Romans:12:17 @ Mind not high, but condescend to low things. Be not wise in your own conceit. Render to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

wesleynt@Romans:12:19 @ Dearly beloved, revenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore if thy enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink; for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.

wesleynt@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul be subject to the supreme powers, for there is no power but from God; the powers that be, are appointed by God.

wesleynt@Romans:13:2 @ Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the appointment of God; and they that resist shall receive to themselves condemnation.

wesleynt@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Wouldest thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from it; for he is the servant of God to thee for good.

wesleynt@Romans:13:4 @ But if thou dost that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain; for he is the servant of God, an avenger for wrath against him that doth evil.

wesleynt@Romans:13:5 @ Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

wesleynt@Romans:13:6 @ For this cause ye pay tribute also: for they are the ministers of God, attending continually on this very thing.

wesleynt@Romans:13:7 @ Render therefore to all their due: tribute to whom tribute is due, custom to whom custom, fear to whom fear, honour to whom honour.

wesleynt@Romans:13:8 @ Owe no man any thing, but to love another; for he that loveth another, hath fulfilled the law.

wesleynt@Romans:13:9 @ For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

wesleynt@Romans:13:10 @ Love worketh no evil to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

wesleynt@Romans:13:11 @ And do this, knowing the season, that it is high time now to awake out of sleep; for salvation is nearer to us now, then when we first believed.

wesleynt@Romans:13:12 @ The night is far spent; the day is at hand, let us therefore put off the works of darkness, and put on the armour of light.

wesleynt@Romans:13:13 @ Let us walk decently, as in the day; not in banqueting and drunken entertainments, not in uncleannesses and wantonness, not in strife and envy.

wesleynt@Romans:13:14 @ But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the desires thereof.

wesleynt@Romans:14:1 @ Him that is weak in the faith, receive; but not to doubtful disputations.

wesleynt@Romans:14:2 @ For one believeth, that he may eat all things; another who is weak, eateth herbs.

wesleynt@Romans:14:4 @ Who art thou that judgest another's servant? To his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be upheld; for God is able to establish him.

wesleynt@Romans:14:5 @ One man esteemeth one day above another; another esteemeth every day alike; let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

wesleynt@Romans:14:6 @ He that regardeth the day, regardeth it to the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord; for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

wesleynt@Romans:14:7 @ For none of us liveth to himself, and none dieth to himself. But if we live, we live unto the Lord; and if we die, we die unto the Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:14:8 @ Whether therefore we live or die, we are the Lord's.

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

wesleynt@Romans:14:10 @ But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou despise thy brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of Christ.

wesleynt@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

wesleynt@Romans:14:12 @ So then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God.

wesleynt@Romans:14:13 @ Let us therefore no longer judge one another; but judge this rather, not to lay a stumbling block, or a scandal before a brother.

wesleynt@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am assured by the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: but to him that accounteth any thing to be unclean, it is unclean.

wesleynt@Romans:14:15 @ But if thy brother is grieved by thy meat, thou no longer walkest charitably. Destroy not him by thy meat, for whom Christ died.

wesleynt@Romans:14:16 @ Therefore let not your good be evil spoken of.

wesleynt@Romans:14:17 @ For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

wesleynt@Romans:14:18 @ And he that in these serveth Christ, is acceptable to God, and approved by men.

wesleynt@Romans:14:19 @ Let us therefore pursue the things that tend to peace, and to mutual edification.

wesleynt@Romans:14:20 @ For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure: but it is evil to that man who eateth with offence.

wesleynt@Romans:14:21 @ It is good, not to eat flesh, neither to drink wine, nor to do any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or made weak.

wesleynt@Romans:14:22 @ Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.

wesleynt@Romans:14:23 @ But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because it is not of faith; for whatsoever is not of faith, is sin.

wesleynt@Romans:15:1 @ Therefore we who are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

wesleynt@Romans:15:3 @ For Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee, fell upon me.

wesleynt@Romans:15:4 @ For whatsoever things were written aforetime, were written for our instruction, that we, through patience and consolation of the scriptures, may have hope.

wesleynt@Romans:15:5 @ Now the God of patience and consolation give you to think the same thing, according to Christ Jesus,

wesleynt@Romans:15:6 @ That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@Romans:15:7 @ Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also hath received you, to the glory of God.

wesleynt@Romans:15:8 @ Now I say, Christ Jesus was a servant of the circumcision, for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers:

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

wesleynt@Romans:15:10 @ And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.

wesleynt@Romans:15:14 @ And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye likewise are full of goodness, being filled with all knowledge, and able to admonish one another.

wesleynt@Romans:15:15 @ Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly to you, in part, as putting you in mind, because of the grace which is given to me of God,

wesleynt@Romans:15:16 @ That I should be the servant of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministring the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles may be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.

wesleynt@Romans:15:17 @ I have therefore whereof to glory, through Jesus Christ, in the things pertaining to God.

wesleynt@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any thing which Christ hath not done by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed, Through mighty signs and wonders,

wesleynt@Romans:15:19 @ by the power of the Spirit, so that I have fully preached the Gospel of Christ, from Jerusalem round about, as far as Illyricum.

wesleynt@Romans:15:20 @ But I have striven, so to preach the gospel, not where Christ had been named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation.

wesleynt@Romans:15:21 @ But as it is written, They to whom he was not spoken of shall see; and they that have not heard, shall understand.

wesleynt@Romans:15:22 @ Therefore I have been long hindered from coming to you.

wesleynt@Romans:15:23 @ But now having no longer place in these parts, and having had a great desire for many years to come to you, Whenever I go into Spain, I will come to you;

wesleynt@Romans:15:24 @ for I hope to see you as I pass by, and to be brought forward by you in my way thither, if first I may be somewhat satisfied with your company.

wesleynt@Romans:15:25 @ But I am now going to Jerusalem, serving the saints. For it hath

wesleynt@Romans:15:26 @ pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a collection for the poor of the saints that are in Jerusalem.

wesleynt@Romans:15:27 @ It hath pleased them, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have partook of their spiritual things, they ought to minister to them in carnal things.

wesleynt@Romans:15:29 @ And I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

wesleynt@Romans:15:30 @ Now I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me,

wesleynt@Romans:15:31 @ in your prayers to God for me, That I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service at Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints:

wesleynt@Romans:16:2 @ That ye may receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and assist her in whatsoever business she needeth you: for she hath been an helper of many, and of myself also.

wesleynt@Romans:16:4 @ Who for my life, have laid down their own necks; to whom not I alone owe my thanks, but likewise all the churches of the Gentiles.

wesleynt@Romans:16:5 @ Salute also the church that is in their house. Salute my well-beloved Epenetus, who is the first-fruits of Asia unto Christ.

wesleynt@Romans:16:7 @ my kinsmen, and my fellow-prisoners, who are in repute among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

wesleynt@Romans:16:8 @ Salute Amplias, my beloved in the Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:16:11 @ Salute those of the family of Aristobulus. Salute my kinsman Herodion. Salute those of the family of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:16:12 @ Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, who hath laboured much in the Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:16:13 @ Salute Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

wesleynt@Romans:16:14 @ Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brethren who are with them.

wesleynt@Romans:16:15 @ Salute Philologus and Julias, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints that are with them.

wesleynt@Romans:16:16 @ Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.

wesleynt@Romans:16:17 @ Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them who cause divisions and offences, contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned, and avoid them.

wesleynt@Romans:16:18 @ For such serve not the Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by good words and fair speeches, deceive the hearts of the simple.

wesleynt@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I rejoice therefore on your behalf; but I would have you wise with regard to that which is good, and simple with regard to that which is evil.

wesleynt@Romans:16:20 @ And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

wesleynt@Romans:16:22 @ I Tertius, who wrote this epistle, salute you in the Lord.

wesleynt@Romans:16:23 @ Caius, my host, and of the whole church, saluteth you. Erastus the chamberlain of the city saluteth you, and Quartus, a brother.

wesleynt@Romans:16:24 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. Now to him who is able to stablish you,

wesleynt@Romans:16:25 @ according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, (according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began,

wesleynt@Romans:16:26 @ But now made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God,

wesleynt@Romans:16:27 @ made known to all nations for the obedience of faith) To the only wise God, to him be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen!

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:2 @ and Sosthenes a brother, To the church of God, which is in Corinth, to them that are sanctified through Christ Jesus, called and holy, with all that in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:3 @ Grace be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Christ Jesus:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:5 @ That in every thing ye are inriched through him,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:6 @ in all utterance and in all knowledge, As the testimony of Christ was confirmed among you:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:8 @ waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who will also confirm you to the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of the Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God is faithful, by whom ye were called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no schisms among you, but that ye be perfectly joined together, in the same mind and in the same judgment.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it hath been declared to me of you, my brethren, by them of the family of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:14 @ Or were ye baptized into the name of Paul? I thank God, that I baptized none of you but Crispus and Caius:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:16 @ I baptized also the family of Stephanas.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:17 @ I know not that I baptized any other. For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel; but not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the doctrine of the cross is indeed to them that perish foolishness; but to us who are saved, it is the power of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and abolish the understanding of the prudent.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:22 @ For whereas the Jews demand signs, and the Greeks seek wisdom, We preach Christ crucified,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:23 @ to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But to them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:25 @ Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:26 @ Behold your calling brethren: that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world, to shame the wise, and the weak things of the world, to shame the things that are mighty:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:28 @ And the base things of the world, and things that are despised, hath God chosen; yea, things that are not, to bring to nought the things that are; That no flesh may glory before him.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:1:31 @ That as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:4 @ And my speech and my preaching was not with the persuasive words of human wisdom, but with the demonstration of the Spirit and of power.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:5 @ That your faith might not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:6 @ Yet we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: but not the wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, that come to nought: But we speak the hidden wisdom of God in a mystery,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:7 @ which God ordained before the world for our glory;

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:8 @ Which none of the rulers of this world knew; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor hath ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But God hath revealed them to us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things, even the deep things of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man which is in him? So the things of God also knoweth no one, but the Spirit of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God, that we may know the things which are freely given to us of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:13 @ Which also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Holy Spirit, explaining spiritual things by spiritual words.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit; for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:15 @ But the spiritual man discerneth all things, while he himself is discerned by no man.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:2:16 @ For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:3 @ For ye are still carnal: for while there is among you emulation, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:5 @ and another, I am of Apollos, are ye not carnal? Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:6 @ I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So then, neither is he that planteth any thing, nor he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:8 @ But he that planteth and he that watereth are one; and every one shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God given to me, as a wise master-builder I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon; but let every one take heed how he buildeth thereon.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:11 @ For other foundation can no man lay, than what is laid, which is Jesus Christ: And if any one build on this foundation, gold, silver, costly stones;

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:13 @ for the day shall declare it: for it is revealed by fire; yea the fire shall try every one's work, of what sort it is.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If any one's work which he hath built thereon shall remain, he shall receive a reward.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If any one's work shall be burnt, he shall suffer loss, but himself shall be saved, yet so as through the fire.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Know ye not, that ye are the temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If any man destroy the temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let none deceive himself: if any one among you thinketh himself to be wise, let him become a fool in this world, that he may become wise.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:19 @ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; as it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:20 @ And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:21 @ Therefore let none glory in men; for all things are yours:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:3:22 @ Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas; or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:1 @ Let a man so account us, as servants of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:4 @ For I am not conscious to myself of any thing, yet am I not hereby justified; but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and manifest the counsels of the hearts. And then shall every one have praise from God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:6 @ These things, brethren, I have by a figure transferred to myself and Apollos, for your sakes; that ye may learn in us, not to think of men above what is here written, that ye may not be puffed up for one above another.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who maketh thee to differ from another? And what hast thou which thou hast not received? But if thou hast received it, why dost thou boast, as if thou hadst not received it?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think God hath set forth us the apostles last, as appointed to death; for we are made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:13 @ Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and off-scouring of all things to this day.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For if ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers; for I have begotten you in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:16 @ I beseech you therefore, be ye followers of me.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this cause I have sent to you Timothy, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord permit, and will know, not the speech of them who are puffed up, but the power.

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

wesleynt@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What will ye? That I come to you with a rod? or in love, and the spirit of meekness?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is commonly reported, that there is fornication among you, and such fornication, as is not even named among the heathens, that one should have his father's wife.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And are ye puffed up? Have ye not rather mourned, that he who hath done this deed, might be taken from among you?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:4 @ as if I were present, judged him who hath so done this, In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:5 @ with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, To deliver such an one to Satan, for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your glorying is not good: know ye not, that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened; for our passover is slain for us, even Christ:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep the feast; not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of wickedness and malignity, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:10 @ But not altogether with the lewd persons of this world, or the covetous, or the rapacious, or idolaters, for then ye must go out of the world.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But I have now written unto you, if any who is named a brother, be a lewd person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or rapacious, not to converse with such an one, no, not to eat with him.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what have I to do, to judge them also that are without? Do not ye judge them that are within?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:5:13 @ (But them that are without God will judge:) And ye will take away from among yourselves that wicked person.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:1 @ Dare any of you, having a matter against another, refer it to the unjust, and not to the saints?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Know ye not, that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:4 @ How much more things pertaining to this life? If then ye have any controversies of things pertaining to this life, do ye set them to judge who are of no esteem in the church?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I speak to your shame. What, is there not so much as one wise man among you, that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But brother goeth to law with brother, and this before the infidels.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Indeed even this is altogether a fault among you, that ye have contests with each other. Why do ye not rather suffer wrong?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:8 @ Why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, even your brethren.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Know ye not, that the unjust shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:10 @ nor sodomites, Nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor revilers, nor the rapacious shall inherit the kingdom of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:12 @ All things are lawful for me; but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under the power of any.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:13 @ Meats are for the belly, and the belly for meats; yet God will destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:14 @ And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Know ye not, that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:16 @ God forbid. Know ye not, that he who is joined to an harlot is one body? For they two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he that is joined to the Lord is one Spirit.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doth, is without the body; but he that committeth fornication, sinneth against his own body.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Know ye not, that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have from God?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:6:20 @ And ye are not your own: For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God with your body and your spirit, which are God's.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote to me, It is good for a man, not to touch a woman.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:2 @ Yet, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife; and let every woman have her own husband.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband render the debt to the wife; and in like manner the wife also to the husband.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:4 @ The wife hath not power over her own body, but the husband; and in like manner the husband also hath not power over his own body, but the wife.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Withdraw not from each other, unless it be by consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to prayer, and may come together again, lest Satan tempt you through your incontinence.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:7 @ but every one hath his proper gift from God, one after this manner, another after that.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But to the unmarried and the widows I say, It is good for them, if they remain even as I.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they have not power over themselves, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:10 @ The married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:12 @ And let not the husband put away his wife. To the rest speak I, not the Lord. If any brother hath an unbelieving wife, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And the wife, who hath an unbelieving husband, that consenteth to live with her, let her not put him away.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband hath been sanctified by the wife; and the unbelieving wife hath been sanctified by the husband. Else were your children unclean; but now they are holy.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbeliever will depart, let him depart: a brother or a sister is not inslaved in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But as God hath distributed to every one, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:18 @ And thus I ordain in all the churches. Is any one called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any one called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:19 @ Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Let every one in the calling wherein he is called, therein abide.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou canst be made free, use it rather.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For he that is called by the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman; and in like manner, he that is called being free, is the servant of Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:23 @ Ye are bought with a price; do not become the servants of men.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Brethren, let every one wherein he is called, therein abide with God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord: but I give my judgment, as one who hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I apprehend therefore, that this is good for the present distress, that it is good for a man to continue as he is.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:28 @ Yet if thou dost marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such will have trouble in the flesh; but I spare you.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:29 @ But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that even they that have wives, be as if they had none: And they that weep, as if they wept not;

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:30 @ and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not;

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:31 @ and they that buy, as if they possessed not; And they that use this world, as not abusing it; for the fashion of this world passeth away: Now I would have you without carefulness.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:32 @ The unmarried man careth for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But the married careth for the things of the world, how he may please his wife.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit: but the married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:35 @ And this I say for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare upon you, but that ye may decently wait upon the Lord without distraction.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any think that he acteth indecently toward his virgin, if she be above age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:37 @ Nevertheless, he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power over his own will, and hath determined this in his heart to keep his virgin, doth well.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So then he also that giveth in marriage, doth well; but he that giveth not in marriage, doth better.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:39 @ The wife is bound as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to marry whom she will; only in the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But she is happier, if she continue as she is, in my judgment; and I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:2 @ Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth. And if any one think he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:3 @ But if any one love God, he is known by him. I say, as to the eating of things sacrificed to idols,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:4 @ we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (as there are many gods and many lords) Yet to us there is but one God,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:6 @ the Father from whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But there is not in all men this knowledge; for some do even until now, with consciousness of the idol, eat it as sacrificed to the idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But meat commendeth us not to God; for neither if we eat, are we the better, nor if we eat not, are we the worse.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take heed, lest by any means this your liberty become a stumbling-block to the weak.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any one see thee, who hast knowledge, sitting at meat in an idol-temple, will not the conscience of him that is weak be encouraged to eat of the things sacrificed to the idol?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:11 @ And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:12 @ But when ye sin thus against your brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Wherefore if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:2 @ Are not ye my work in the Lord? If I am not an apostle to others, yet I am to you; for ye are the seal of my apostleship.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:3 @ My answer to them who examine me is this.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Have we not power to lead about with us a sister, a wife, as well as the other apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Peter?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:7 @ Who ever warreth at his own charge? Who planteth a vineyard, and doth not eat of its fruit? Or who feedeth a flock, and doth not eat of the milk of the flock?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:8 @ Do I speak these things as a man? Doth not the law also speak the same?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written, in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn? Doth God take care for oxen?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or speaketh he chiefly for our sakes? surely for our sakes it was written: for he who ploweth, ought to plow in hope; and he that thresheth in hope, ought to be a partaker of his hope.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others partake of this power over you, do not we rather? Yet we have not used this power: but we suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:13 @ Know ye not, that they who are employed about holy things, are fed out of the temple? And they who wait at the altar, are partakers with the altar.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:14 @ So also hath the Lord ordained, that they who preach the gospel, should live of the gospel.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things; nor have I written thus, that it might be done so unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make this my glorying void.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of; for a necessity lieth upon me, and wo is me, if I preach not the gospel.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What then is my reward? that when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For though I am free from all men, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:20 @ To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews: to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To them that are without the law, as without the law, (being not without the law to God, but under the law to Christ) that I might gain them that are without the law.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:22 @ To the weak I became as weak, that I might gain the weak: I became all things to all men, that by all means I might save some.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:23 @ And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I may be partaker thereof with you.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Know ye not, that they who run in the race, all run, but one receiveth the prize? so run that ye may obtain.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:25 @ And every one that contendeth, is temperate in all things: and they indeed, to obtain a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:26 @ I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; I so fight, not as one that beateth the air.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection, lest by any means, after having preached to others, I myself should become a reprobate.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:2 @ and all passed through the sea, And were all baptized unto Moses,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:3 @ in the cloud and in the sea, And all ate the same spiritual meat,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:4 @ And all drank the same spiritual drink (for they drank out of the spiritual rock which followed them; and that rock was Christ) Yet, with the most of them, God was not well-pleased;

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:5 @ for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:6 @ Now these things were for our example, that we might not desire evil things, as they desired.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them, as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:9 @ Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:10 @ Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to them for examples, and they are written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages are come.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:12 @ Therefore let him that standeth, take heed, lest he fall.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:13 @ There hath no temptation taken you, but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above your ability, but will with the temptation make also a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:14 @ Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:15 @ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:16 @ The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:17 @ For we, being many, are one bread, and one body; for we are all partakers of the one bread.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:18 @ Consider Israel after the flesh. Are not they who eat of the sacrifices, partakers of the altar?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What say I then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is any thing? or that an idol is any thing?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:20 @ But that what the heathens sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God. Now I would not that ye should be partakers with devils.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:21 @ Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils; ye cannot be partakers of the table of the Lord, and the table of devils.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:22 @ Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:24 @ Let no one seek his own, but every one another's welfare.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Whatever is sold in the shambles eat, asking no questions for conscience sake.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:26 @ For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:27 @ And if any of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for conscience sake.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if any one say to you, This hath been sacrificed to an idol, eat not, for his sake that shewed thee, and for conscience sake.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:29 @ Conscience I say, not thy own, but that of the other: for why is my liberty judged by another's conscience?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:31 @ Therefore whether ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Give no offence either to the Jews, or to the Gentiles, or to the church of God:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:10:33 @ Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but that of many that they may be saved.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the orders, as I delivered them to you.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I would have you know, that the head of the woman is the man, and the head of every man is Christ, and the head of Christ is God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Every man praying or prophesying with his head covered, dishonoureth his head.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered, dishonoureth her head; for it is the same as if she were shaved.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:6 @ Therefore if a woman is not covered, let her also be shaved: but if it be shameful, for a woman to have her hair shaved off, or cut short, let her be covered.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:7 @ A man indeed ought not to have his head covered, being the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:8 @ For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:9 @ Neither was the man created for the sake of the woman, but the woman for the sake of the man.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:10 @ For this cause also the woman ought to have a veil upon her head, because of the angels.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:11 @ Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:12 @ And as the woman was of the man, so also the man is by the woman; but all things are of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:15 @ Whereas for a woman to have long hair, is a glory to her; for her hair was given her instead of a veil.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if any one be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But in this which I declare, I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first, when ye come together in the church, I hear there are schisms among you, (and I partly believe it.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must be heresies also among you, that the approved among you may be manifest).

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Therefore when ye come together into one place, it is not eating the Lord's supper.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating every one taketh before another his own supper, and one is hungry, another drinks largely.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or do ye despise the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:23 @ I praise you not. For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus the night in which he was betrayed,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:24 @ took bread, And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat, this is my body, which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of me.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In like manner also he took the cup after he had supped, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: do this as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:26 @ Therefore as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye shew forth the Lord's death, till he come.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:27 @ So that whosoever shall eat the bread and drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:28 @ Therefore let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not distinguishing the Lord's body.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait one for another.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:11:34 @ And if any one be hungry, let him eat at home, that ye come not together to condemnation. And the rest I will set in order when I come.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:2 @ Ye know that when ye were heathens, ye were carried away after dumb idols, as ye were led.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I give you to know, that as no one speaking by the Spirit of God, calleth Jesus accursed; so no one can say, Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:4 @ Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:5 @ And there are diversities of administrations, but the same Lord:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God who worketh all in all.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each, to profit withal.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:8 @ For to one is given by the Spirit, the word of wisdom; to another by the same Spirit, the word of knowledge;

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:9 @ To another faith by the same Spirit;

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:10 @ to another the gift of healing by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another the discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But one and the same Spirit worketh all these, dividing to every one severally as he willeth.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one, and yet hath many members, but all the members of the body, many as they are, are one body, so is Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For we are all baptized by one Spirit into one body, whether we are Jews or Gentiles, whether slaves or freemen; and we have all drank of one Spirit.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body is not one member, but many. If the foot should say,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:15 @ Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now hath God set the members, every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:19 @ And if all were one member, where were the body?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:20 @ Whereas now there are indeed many members, yet but one body.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee; or again, the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:22 @ Yea, the members of the body, which appear to be weaker, are much more necessary.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And those which we think to be the less honourable parts of the body, these we surround with more abundant honour, and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:24 @ For our comely parts have no need; but God hath tempered the body together, giving more abundant honour to that which lacked:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:25 @ That there might be no schism in the body, but that the members might have the same care for each other:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And whether one member suffer, all the members might suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members might rejoice with it.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in part.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God hath set in the church, first, apostles, secondly, prophets, thirdly, teachers: afterward miracles, then gifts of healing, helps, governments, different kinds of tongues.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:29 @ Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? have all miraculous powers?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? But covet earnestly the best gifts.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:12:31 @ And yet I shew unto you a more excellent way.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith so as to remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I give all my goods to feed the poor, and deliver up my body to be burned, and have not love, it profiteth me nothing.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:5 @ Doth not behave indecently, seeketh not her own, is not provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not at iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

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

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:10 @ And when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall vanish away.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I talked as a child, I understood as a child, I reasoned as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:12 @ And now we see by means of a glass obscurely; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then I shall know even as also I am known.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:13:13 @ And now abide these three, faith, hope, love; but the greatest of these is love.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Follow after love: and desire spiritual gifts; but especially that ye may prophesy.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue, speaketh not to men, but to God; for no one understandeth him, though by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:3 @ Whereas he that prophesieth, speaketh to men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He that speaketh in an unknown tongue, edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied; for he that prophesieth, is greater than he that speaketh with tongues, unless he interpret, that the church may receive edification.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:6 @ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you, either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophecy, or by doctrine?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:7 @ So inanimate things which give a sound, whether pipe or harp, unless they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:8 @ And if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for the battle?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So likewise unless ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? For ye will speak to the air.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:10 @ Let there be ever so many kinds of languages in the world, and none of them without signification:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:11 @ Yet if I know not the meaning of the language, I shall be a barbarian to him that speaketh, and he that speaketh will be a barbarian to me.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So ye also, seeing ye desire spiritual gifts, seek to abound in them, to the edifying of the church.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue, pray that he may interpret.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What then is my duty? I will pray with the Spirit; but I will pray with the understanding also; I will sing with the Spirit; but I will sing with the understanding also.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise if thou givest thanks with the Spirit, how shall he that filleth the place of a private person, say Amen to thy thanksgiving, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For thou verily givest thanks well; yet the other is not edified.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:19 @ Yet in the congregation I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:21 @ It is written in the law, In foreign tongues and with foreign lips will I speak to this people; and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So that tongues are for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; whereas prophecy is not for unbelievers, but for believers.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Yet if the whole church be met together, and all speak with unknown tongues, and there come in ignorant persons or unbelievers, will they not say, that ye are mad?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:24 @ Whereas if all prophesy, and there come in an unbeliever, or an ignorant person, he is convicted by all, he is judged by all:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:25 @ The secrets of his heart are made manifest, and so falling down on his face, he will worship God, and declare that God is among you of a truth.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What a thing is it, brethren, that when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there be no interpreter, let him be silent in the church, and let him speak to himself and to God.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:29 @ Let two or three of the prophets speak, and let the rest judge. But if any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:30 @ let the first be silent.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:32 @ For the Spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let your women be silent in the churches; for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be in subjection, as the law also saith.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they desire to learn any thing, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is indecent for a woman to speak in the assembly.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Did the word of God come out from you? or did it come to you alone?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any one think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you, are the commandments of the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:14:39 @ Therefore, brethren, covet to prophesy; yet forbid not to speak with tongues.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also ye received, and wherein ye stand:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:2 @ By which also ye are saved, if ye retain what I preached to you, unless ye have believed in vain.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:4 @ according to the scriptures, And that he was buried, and that he was raised the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:5 @ Afterwards he was seen by above five hundred brethren at once,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:6 @ of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:7 @ After this he was seen by James, then by all the apostles.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:8 @ Last of all he was seen by me also, as an untimely birth.

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

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain, but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Whether therefore I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:12 @ But if Christ is preached, that he rose from the dead, how say some among you, that there is no resurrection of the dead?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:13 @ For if there be no resurrection of the dead, neither is Christ raised.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:14 @ And if Christ be not raised, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:15 @ Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we testified from God, that he raised up Christ, whom he did not raise, if the dead rise not.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if the dead rise not, neither is Christ raised:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:18 @ Then also they who sleep in Christ are perished.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now is Christ risen from the dead, the first-fruit of them that slept.

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

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But every one in his own order: Christ the first-fruit, afterward they who are Christ's, at his coming.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father, when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:25 @ For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:26 @ The last enemy that is destroyed is death. For he hath put all things under his feet.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:27 @ But when he saith, All things are put under him, it is manifest that he who did put all things under him is excepted.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:28 @ But when all things shall be put under him, then shall the Son himself also be subject to him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

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

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:31 @ If after the manner of men,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:32 @ I have fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? Let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will say, How are the dead raised? And with what body do they come?

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but a bare grain, perhaps of wheat, or of any other corn:

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to each of the seeds, its own body.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh; but there is one kind of flesh of men, another of beasts, another of fishes, another of birds.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are also heavenly, and there are earthly bodies: but the glory of the heavenly is one, and that of the earthly another.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:41 @ There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: and one star differeth from another star in glory.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also is the resurrection of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:44 @ It is sown an animal body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is an animal body, and there is a spiritual body.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:45 @ And so it is written, The first Adam was made a living soul, the last Adam is a quickening Spirit.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:46 @ Yet the spiritual body was not first, but the animal; afterward the spiritual.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:47 @ The first man was from the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:48 @ As was the earthy, such are they also that are earthy, and as was the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:49 @ And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:50 @ But this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:52 @ In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:54 @ So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:55 @ O death, where is thy sting? O Hades, where is thy victory; The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:57 @ who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not vain in the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Concerning the collection for the saints, as I have ordered the churches of Galatia, so also do ye.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of the week, let every one of you lay by him in store according as he hath been prospered, that there may be no collections when I come.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I am come, whomsoever ye shall approve, them will I send with letters, to carry your gift to Jerusalem.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:4 @ And if it be proper, that I also should go, they shall go with me.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I will come to you, when I have passed through Macedonia,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:6 @ (for I pass through Macedonia) And perhaps I may stay, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me forward on my journey, whithersoever I go.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I will not see you now in my way; but hope to stay some time with you, if the Lord permit.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:8 @ But I will stay at Ephesus till Pentecost.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a great and effectual door is opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:10 @ But if Timotheus come, see that he be with you without fear; for he laboureth in the work of the Lord, even as I.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let no man despise him, but conduct him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I look for him with the brethren.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As to our brother Apollos, I besought him much, to come to you with the brethren; yet he was by no means willing to come now; but he will come, when it shall be convenient.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, acquit yourselves like men; be strong.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:15 @ And I beseech you, brethren, as ye know the houshold of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to serve the saints,

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus: for they have supplied what was wanting on your part.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:18 @ For they have refreshed my spirit and yours; such therefore acknowledge.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla, with the church that is in their house, salute you much in the Lord.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:20 @ All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with an holy kiss.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:21 @ The Salutation of me Paul with my own hand. If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be anathema: Maran-atha.

wesleynt@1Corinthians:16:22 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother, to the church of God that is in Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:2 @ Grace and peace be to you from God our Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and God of all comfort,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:4 @ Who comforteth us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort them who are in any affliction, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:5 @ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our comfort also aboundeth through Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:6 @ And whether we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; or whether we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which is effectual in the patient enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:7 @ And our hope concerning you is stedfast, knowing that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so also of the comfort.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, of the trouble which befell us in Asia, that we were exceedingly pressed, above our strength, so that we despaired even of life.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Yea, we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we might not trust in ourselves, but in God, who raiseth the dead:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:10 @ Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust, that he will still deliver:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:11 @ You likewise helping together with us by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by means of many persons, thanks may be given by many on our behalf.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For this is our rejoicing, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with carnal wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more especially toward you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we write no other things to you, but what ye know and acknowledge, and I trust will acknowledge even to the end.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:14 @ As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, as ye also are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:17 @ Now when I was thus minded, did I use levity? or the things which I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, so that there should be with me yea and nay?

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For Jesus Christ the Son of God, who was preached among you by us, by me, and Silvanus, and Timotheus was not yea and nay; but was yea in him.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God are yea in him, and amen in him, to the glory of God by us.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:21 @ For he that establisheth us with you in Christ, and that hath anointed us is God:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:22 @ Who hath also sealed us, and given us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy; for by faith ye have stood.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I grieve you, who is he that cheareth me, but he that is grieved by me?

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote thus to you, that I might not when I come have grief from those for whom I ought to rejoice; being persuaded concerning you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For from much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that ye might be grieved, but that ye might know the abundant love which I have toward you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:5 @ And if any have caused grief, he hath grieved me but in part, that I may not overburden you all.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:7 @ So that on the contrary ye should rather forgive and comfort him, lest such an one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:8 @ I beseech you therefore to confirm your love toward him.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye were obedient in all things.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:10 @ To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: and if I forgive any thing, to whom I forgive it, it is for your sakes, in the person of Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Now when I came to Troas, to preach the gospel of Christ, and a door was opened to me in the Lord,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother; so taking leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:14 @ Now thanks be to God, who causeth us always to triumph through Christ, and manifesteth by us in every place the odour of his knowledge.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are to God a sweet odour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:16 @ To these an odour of death unto death, but to those an odour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?

wesleynt@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not as many, who adulterate the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from God, in the sight of God, speak we in Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:2 @ Ye are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by all men:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:3 @ Manifestly declared to be the letter of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not in tables of stone, but in the fleshly tables of the heart.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:6 @ Who also hath made us able ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit; for the letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:7 @ And if the ministration of death engraven in letters on stones was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look stedfastly on the face of Moses, because of the glory of his face, which was to be abolished: Shall not rather the ministration of the Spirit be glorious?

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:8 @ For if the ministration of condemnation was glory,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:9 @ much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:10 @ For even that which was made glorious, had no glory in this respect, because of the glory that excelleth.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if that which is abolished was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:12 @ Having therefore this hope, we use great plainness of speech.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:13 @ And not as Moses, who put a veil upon his face, so that the children of Israel could not look stedfastly to the end of that which is abolished.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their understandings were blinded: and until this day the same veil remaineth unremoved on the reading of the old testament, which is taken away in Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:15 @ But the veil lieth on their heart when Moses is read until this day.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:16 @ Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:17 @ Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:3:18 @ And we all with unveiled face, beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image, from glory to glory, as by the Spirit of the Lord.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore having this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not: But have renounced the hidden things of shame,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:2 @ not walking in craftiness, nor deceitfully corrupting the word of God, but by manifestation of the truth, commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:3 @ But if our gospel also is veiled, it is veiled to them that perish;

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:4 @ Whose unbelieving minds the god of this world hath blinded, lest the illumination of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine upon them.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:5 @ For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to inlighten us with the knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God, and not of us.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:8 @ We are troubled on every side, yet not crushed;

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:10 @ Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:11 @ We who live are always delivered unto death for the sake of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal body.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:12 @ So then death worketh in us, but life in you. Yet having the same spirit of faith,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:13 @ according to what is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken, we also believe, and therefore speak:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:14 @ Knowing that he who raised up the Lord Jesus, will also raise us up by Jesus, and present us with you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For all things are for your sakes, that the overflowing grace might through the thanksgiving of many abound to the glory of God.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore we faint not, but even though the outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:4:18 @ While we aim not at the things that are seen, but the things that are not seen: for the things that are seen are temporal, but the things that are not seen are eternal.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building from God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon, with our house which is from heaven:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:3 @ If being clothed, we shall not be found naked.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For we who are in this tabernacle groan, being burdened; not that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that what is mortal may be swallowed up of life.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:5 @ Now he that hath wrought us to this very thing is God, who hath also given us the earnest of the Spirit.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:6 @ Therefore we always behave undauntedly; knowing that while we are sojourning in the body, we are absent from the Lord:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We behave undauntedly, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and present with the Lord.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:9 @ Therefore we are ambitious, whether present, or absent, to be well-pleasing to him.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that every one may receive according to what he hath done in the body, whether good or evil.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men: but we are made manifest to God, and I trust we are made manifest in your consciences also.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We do not again recommend ourselves to you; but we give you an occasion of glorying on our behalf, that ye may have something to answer them, who glory in appearance, and not in heart.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ constraineth us, while we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:15 @ And that he died for all, that they who live should not henceforth live to themselves, but to him who died for them, and rose again.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:16 @ So that we from this time know no one after the flesh; yea, if we have known even Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore if any one be in Christ, there is a new creation: the old things are passed way; behold, all things are become new:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:18 @ And all things are from God, who hath reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation: Namely,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their traspasses to them, and hath committed to us the word of reconciliation.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:20 @ Therefore we are embassadors for Christ, as though God were intreating by us: we beseech you, in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For he hath made him, who knew no sin, a sin-offering for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God through him.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:1 @ We then, as fellow-labourers, do also exhort you, not to receive the grace of God in vain.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:2 @ (For he saith, I have heard thee in an acceptable time, and in a day of salvation have I succoured thee. Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:3 @ Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed, But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:6 @ By purity, by prudence, by long suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:7 @ By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right-hand and the left:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:11 @ O ye Corinthians, our mouth is opened toward you, our heart is inlarged.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:13 @ Now for a recompence of the same, (I speak as to my children) be ye also inlarged.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? Now ye are the temple of the living God, as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them, and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, and touch not the unclean person, saith the Lord, and I will receive you,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:6:18 @ And will be to you a Father, and ye shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Having therefore, beloved, these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from all pollution of the flesh and of the spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I speak not, to condemn you; for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts, to live and to die with you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side: from without were fightings, from within were fears.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:6 @ But God who comforteth them that are brought low, comforted us by the coming of Titus.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:7 @ And not only by his coming, but also by the comfort wherewith he was comforted over you, when he told us your earnest desire, your grief, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced the more.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For I do not repent that I grieved you by the letter, though I did repent: (for I see that letter grieved you, though but for a season.)

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation not to be repented of, whereas the sorrow of the world worketh death.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For behold, this very thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly manner, what diligence it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge? In all things ye have approved yourselves to be pure in this matter.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:12 @ And though I wrote to you, it was not for his sake who had done the wrong, nor for his sake who had suffered it, but for the sake of manifesting to you in the sight of God our diligent care over you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we were comforted in your comfort, and we rejoiced the more exceedingly in the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his tender affection is more abundant toward you, calling to mind the obedience of you all, how ye received him with fear and trembling.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:7:16 @ I rejoice therefore, that I have confidence in you in all things.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:1 @ Moreover, brethren, we declare to you the grace of God, bestowed on the churches in Macedonia,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:2 @ That in a great trial of affliction, their overflowing joy and their deep poverty abounded to the riches of their liberality:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:3 @ That to their power, I testify, and beyond their power, they were willing of themselves,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:4 @ Praying us with much intreaty, to receive the gift and take a part in ministring it to the saints.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And this they did, not as we hoped; but first gave themselves to the Lord, and to us by the will of God:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:6 @ So that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also compleat this gift among you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:7 @ Therefore as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I speak not by way of command, but that by the diligence of others, I may prove the sincerity of your love.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun a year ago, not only to do, but also to do it willingly.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:11 @ Now therefore compleat the work, that as there was a ready will, so there may be also a performance, in proportion to what ye have.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there be first a ready mind, a man is accepted, according to what he hath, not according to what he hath not.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:13 @ For I do not mean, that others should be eased, and you burthened; But by an equality,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:14 @ let your abundance be at this time a supply to their want; that their abundance also may be a supply to your want, that there may be an equality,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:15 @ As it is written, He that had gathered the most, had nothing over; and he that had gathered the least, did not lack.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God, who put the same diligent care for you in the heart of Titus.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he accepted indeed the exhortation, but being more forward, he went to you of his own accord.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:18 @ And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise in the gospel is through all the churches: (And not only so,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:19 @ but he was also appointed by the churches to be a fellow-traveller with us, with this gift, which is administred by us, to the glory of the Lord himself,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:20 @ and for the declaration of our ready mind) Avoiding this, lest any one should blame us in this abundance, which is administred by us.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:21 @ For we provide things honest, not only before the Lord, but also before men.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have often proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, through his great confidence in you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If any inquire concerning Titus, he is my partner, and fellow-labourer with respect to you; or concerning our brethren, they are the messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Shew therefore to them before the churches the proof of your love and of our boasting on your behalf.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:1 @ For concerning the ministring to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:2 @ For I know your readiness, which I boast concerning you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath provoked very many.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:3 @ Yet I have sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you on this head should be made vain, that, as I said, ye may be ready;

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:4 @ Lest if any of the Macedonians come with me, and find you unprepared, we (not to say, you) be ashamed of this confident boasting.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought it necessary, to desire the brethren to go before to you, and compleat this your bounty, which had been spoken of before, that it may be ready as a bounty, and not as a matter of covetousness.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:6 @ And this I say, He that soweth sparingly, shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully, shall reap also bountifully:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:7 @ Let every man do as he chuseth in his heart, not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a chearful giver.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:9 @ (As it is written, He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness remaineth for ever.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:10 @ And may he who supplieth seed to the sower, and bread for your food, supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness:)

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:11 @ Being inriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which worketh by us thanksgiving to God.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the administration of this service, doth not only supply the necessities of the saints, but likewise aboundeth by the thanksgivings of many to God:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:13 @ (Who, by experiment of this administration, glorify God for your avowed subjection to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal communication to them and to all men.)

wesleynt@2Corinthians:9:14 @ And by their prayer for you, who long after you, for the exceeding grace of God, which is in you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I Paul myself, who when present am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you, intreat you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beseech, that I may not when I am present be bold with that confidence wherewith I think to be bold toward some, who think of us as walking after the flesh:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:4 @ (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the throwing down of strong-holds.)

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:5 @ Destroying reasonings, and every high thing which exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Do ye look at the outward appearance of things? If any man be confident, that he is Christ's, let him again think this of himself, that as he is Christ's, so we also are Christ's.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:8 @ Yea, if I should boast something more also of the authority which the Lord hath given us, for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:10 @ For his letters indeed, say they, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such an one think this, that such as we are in word by letters, when we are absent, such are we also in deed, when we are present.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we presume not to equal or to compare ourselves with some of those who recommend themselves: but they among themselves limiting themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boastingly extend ourselves beyond our measure; but according to the measure of the providence, which God hath allotted us, a measure to reach even unto you.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we do not extend ourselves excessively, as not reaching to you; for we are come even to you, in the gospel of Christ:

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:15 @ Not boastingly extending ourselves beyond our measure, in the labours of others; but having hope, now your faith is increased, to be inlarged by you,

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:16 @ yet still within our province, abundantly, So as to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, not to boast in another's province of things made ready to our hand.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:17 @ But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I fear lest as the serpent deceived Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from simplicity toward Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:4 @ If indeed he that cometh preach another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another Spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:5 @ But I suppose that I fall nothing short of the very chief apostles.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Have I committed an offence in humbling myself, that ye might be exalted, because I have preached the gospel of God to you at free cost?

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I spoiled other churches, taking wages of them, to serve you: and when I was present with you and wanted, I was chargeable to no man.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:9 @ For the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied my want; and I have in all things kept myself from being burdensom, and will keep myself.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:10 @ As the truth of Christ is in me, this my boasting shall not be stopped in the regions of Achaia.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:11 @ Wherefore?

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:12 @ Because I love you not? God knoweth. But what I do, I will do, that I may cut off the occasion from them who desire occasion, that wherein they boast, they may be found even as we.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:15 @ Therefore it is no great thing, if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose ends shall be according to their works.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, Let no man think me a fool; but if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I also may boast a little.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:17 @ What I speak, I speak not after the Lord; but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:18 @ Seeing many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:20 @ if he devour you, if he take from you, if he exalt himself, if he smite you on the face.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:21 @ I speak with regard to reproach, as though we had been weak: whereas in whatever any is confident, (I speak as a fool) I am confident also.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.

wesleynt@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak foolishly) I more: in labours more abundantly, in stripes more exceedingly, in prisons more abundantly, in deaths often.

wesleynt@Galatians:2:9 @ ) And when James, and Cephas, and John, who undoubtedly were pillars, knew the grace that was given to me, they gave the right-hands of fellowships to me and Barnabas, that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision: Only they desired that we would be mindful of the poor,

wesleynt@Galatians:2:10 @ the same which I also was forward to do.

wesleynt@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw, that they walked not uprightly, according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all, If thou being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to judaize?

wesleynt@Galatians:2:17 @ But if while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore the minister of sin?

wesleynt@Galatians:2:18 @ God forbid. For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:7 @ Know then, that they who are of faith, these are the sons of Abraham.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:8 @ And the scripture foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, declared before the glad tidings to Abraham, In thee shall all the nations be blessed.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:9 @ So then they who are of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse;

wesleynt@Galatians:3:10 @ for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all the things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:11 @ But that none is justified by the law in the sight of God, is evident; for the just shall live by faith.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: (for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

wesleynt@Galatians:3:14 @ ) That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:15 @ I speak after the manner of men: though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, none disannulleth or addeth thereto.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:16 @ Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:17 @ And this I say, the covenant which was before confirmed of God through Christ, the law which was four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of no effect.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance be by the law, it is no more by promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:19 @ Wherefore then was the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made: and it was ordained by angels, in the hand of a mediator.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:20 @ Now the mediator is not a mediator of one; but God is one.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:21 @ Is then the law against the promises of God? God forbid. But if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness would have been by the law.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:22 @ But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:23 @ But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up together unto the faith which was to be revealed.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:24 @ Wherefore the law was our school-master unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:28 @ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

wesleynt@Galatians:3:29 @ And if ye are Christ's, then are ye the seed of Abraham, and heirs according to the promise.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:1 @ Now I say the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;

wesleynt@Galatians:4:2 @ But is under tutors and stewards, till the time appointed by the father.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:3 @ So we also, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son,

wesleynt@Galatians:4:5 @ made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem those under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:6 @ And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying Abba, Father.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:7 @ Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:8 @ Indeed then, when ye knew not God, ye served them that by nature are not gods.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:9 @ But now having known God, or rather being known of God, how turn ye back to the weak and beggarly elements, to which ye desire to be in bondage again?

wesleynt@Galatians:4:12 @ Ye know how though infirmity of the flesh, I preached the gospel to you at first.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:13 @ And ye did not slight or disdain my temptation which was in the flesh, but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:14 @ Where is then the blessedness ye spake of?

wesleynt@Galatians:4:15 @ For I bear you witness, that, if possible, ye would have plucked out your eyes, and have given them to me.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:16 @ Am I become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?

wesleynt@Galatians:4:17 @ They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, ye that would be under the law, do ye not hear the law?

wesleynt@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written, Abraham had two sons, one by the bond-woman, another by the free-woman.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:23 @ And he of the bond-woman was born after the flesh, but he of the free-woman by promise.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:24 @ Which things are an allegory; for these are the two covenants; one from mount Sinai, bearing children to bondage, which is Agar.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:25 @ For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem that now is, and is in bondage with her children.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:26 @ But Jerusalem that is above is free, which is the mother of us all.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:27 @ (For it is written, Rejoice thou barren, that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not; for the desolate hath many more children than she that hath an husband.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:29 @ But as then, he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, so it is now also.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:30 @ But what saith the scripture? Cast out the bond-woman and her son; for the son of the bond-woman shall not be heir with the son of the free-woman.

wesleynt@Galatians:4:31 @ So then, brethren, we are not children of the bond-woman, but of the free.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:1 @ Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made you free, and be not intangled again with the yoke of bondage.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:3 @ For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, he is a debtor to do the whole law.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:4 @ Christ is become of no effect to you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:5 @ For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but faith which worketh by love.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:7 @ Ye did run well: who hath hindered you, that ye should not obey the truth?

wesleynt@Galatians:5:9 @ A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be no otherwise minded; but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:13 @ Brethren, ye have been called to liberty: only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:14 @ For all the law is fulfilled in one word, in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:15 @ But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed ye be not consumed one of another.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:16 @ I say then, walk by the Spirit, and fulfil not the desire of the flesh.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:17 @ For the flesh desireth against the Spirit, but the Spirit desireth against the flesh (these are contrary to each other) that ye may not do the things which ye would.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:18 @ But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

wesleynt@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these, adultery, fornication,

wesleynt@Galatians:5:21 @ emulations, wraths, strifes, divisions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of which I tell you before (as I have also told you in time past) that they who practise such things, shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:2 @ Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:3 @ For if any man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:7 @ Be not deceived; God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man soweth, that also shall he reap.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:8 @ For he that soweth to the flesh, shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit, shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:10 @ Therefore as we have opportunity, let us do good unto all men; but especially to them who are of the houshold of faith.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:12 @ As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, these constrain you to be circumcised: only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:13 @ For neither they who are circumcised keep the law; but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

wesleynt@Galatians:6:14 @ But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world is crucified to me, and I unto the world.

wesleynt@Philippians:1:16 @ The one preach Christ out of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

wesleynt@Philippians:1:17 @ But the others out of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

wesleynt@Philippians:1:18 @ What then? still every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

wesleynt@Philippians:1:19 @ For I know that this shall turn to my salvation, through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ:

wesleynt@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your behaviour be worthy the gospel of Christ, that whether I come and see you, or be absent, I may hear concerning you, that ye stand fast, in one spirit, with one soul striving together for the faith of the gospel,

wesleynt@Philippians:2:24 @ But I trust in the Lord, that I also myself shall come shortly.

wesleynt@Philippians:2:25 @ Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and companion in labour and fellow-soldier, but your messenger, and him that ministered to my need.

wesleynt@Philippians:2:26 @ For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because ye had heard that he was sick.

wesleynt@Philippians:2:27 @ He was indeed sick nigh unto death; but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me likewise, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

wesleynt@Philippians:2:29 @ Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness, and honour such.

wesleynt@Philippians:2:30 @ Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his own life, to supply your deficiency of service toward me.

wesleynt@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is not tedious to me, and it is safe for you.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ ) Knowing, beloved brethren, your election of God.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ For our gospel came not to you in word only, but also with power, and with the Holy Ghost, and with much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you, for your sake.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And ye became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ So that ye became examples to all that believed in Macedonia and Achaia.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For from you the word of the Lord sounded forth, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but your faith toward God went abroad in every place also, so that we need not speak any thing.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves declare concerning us, what manner of entrance to you we had, and how ye turned from idols to God,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ to serve the living and true God, And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he hath raised from the dead, even Jesus, who delivereth us from the wrath to come.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance to you, that it was not in vain: But even after we had suffered before,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ and had been shamefully intreated at Philippi, as ye know, we were bold thro' our God to speak to you the gospel of God with much contention.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our exhortation is not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as we have been approved of God to be intrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God who trieth our hearts.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness: God is witness:

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor sought we glory of men, neither from you, nor from others, when we might have been burdensome, as the Apostles of Christ.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we were gentle in the midst of you, even as a nurse cherisheth her own children.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So, loving you tenderly, we were ready to impart to you not only the gospel of God, but our own souls also, because ye were dear to us.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the gospel of God.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ Ye are witnesses and God, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved among you that believe:

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ As ye know how we exhorted and comforted every one of you,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ as a father his own children, And charged you to walk worthy of God, who hath called you to his kingdom and glory.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, even because when ye received the word of God from us, ye received it, not as the word of men, but (as it is in truth) the word of God, who likewise effectually worketh in you that believe.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God in Christ Jesus, which are in Judea; for ye also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, as they likewise from the Jews:

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ Who both killed the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and have persecuted us: and they please not God, and are contrary to all men.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles, that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always: but wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time, in presence, not in heart, laboured with great desire the more abundantly to see your face.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ Wherefore we would have come to you (even I Paul) once and again, but Satan hindered us.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not ye also before our Lord Jesus at his coming?

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:2:20 @ For ye are our glory and joy.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore when we could bear no longer, we thought good to be left at Athens alone,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ And sent Timotheus our brother and minister of God and our fellow-worker in the gospel of Christ, to establish you and to comfort you concerning your faith,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ That no one might be moved by these afflictions; for ye know that we are appointed hereto.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For when we were with you we told you before, we should be afflicted; as it came to pass, and ye know.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ Therefore when I could bear no longer, I sent to know your faith, left by any means the tempter should have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now when Timotheus was come to us from you, and had brought us the good tidings of your faith and love, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, longing to see us, as we also to see you:

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you, in, all our affliction and distress by your faith.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanks can we render to God for you, for all the joy wherewith we rejoice for your sake before our God?

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ Night and day praying exceedingly, that we may see your face, and perfect that which is wanting in your faith.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus direct our way unto you.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love towards one another and towards all men, as we also do towards you,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ That he may establish your hearts unblameable in holiness (before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ) with all his saints.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ It remaineth then, brethren, that we beseech and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, that ye abound therein more and more.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye abstain from fornication;

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ That every one of you know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ Not in passionate desire, as the Gentiles who know not God.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ That none circumvent or defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger of all these things, as we have also told you before and testified.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ For God hath not called us to uncleanness, but to holiness.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man but God; who hath also given you his Holy Spirit.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ Touching brotherly love, we need not write to you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren that are in all Macedonia; but we exhort you, brethren, that ye increase more and more,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ And that ye study to be quiet and to do your own business, and to work with your hands, as we commanded you;

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ That ye may walk decently toward them that are without, and may want nothing.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ Now we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning them that are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others who have no hope.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we believe, that Jesus died and rose again, so will God bring with him those also that sleep in Christ.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent them that are asleep.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we be ever with the Lord.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:4:18 @ Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But of the times and seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write to you.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For ye yourselves know perfectly, that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ When they say, peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ Ye are all children of the light and children of the day: we are not children of the night, nor of darkness.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ Therefore let us not sleep as the others, but let us awake and keep awake.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:7 @ For they that sleep, sleep in the night, and they that are drunken are drunken in the night.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day keep awake, having put on the breast-plate of faith and love, and for an helmet the hope of salvation.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God hath not appointed us to wrath,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we may live together with him.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ Wherefore comfort one another and edify one another, as also ye do.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ Now we beseech you, brethren, to know them that labour among you,

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you, And to esteem them very highly in love for their works sake, and be at peace among yourselves.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ Now we exhort you, brethren, warn the disorderly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the weak, be long suffering toward all men.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ See that none render to any man evil for evil, but ever follow that which is good, both to one another and to all men.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:16 @ Rejoice evermore:

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ Pray without ceasing: In every thing give thanks;

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:18 @ for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:19 @ Quench not the Spirit.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:20 @ Despise not prophesyings.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:21 @ Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:22 @ Abstain from all appearance of evil.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ And the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly: and may the whole of you, the spirit and the soul and the body, be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

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

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:26 @ Salute all the brethren with an holy kiss.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I charge you by the Lord, that this epistle be read to all the brethren.

wesleynt@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace be unto you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because your faith groweth exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ So that we ourselves glory of you in the churches of God, for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and sufferings which ye endure:

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ A manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be accounted, worthy of the kingdom of God; for which also ye suffer.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ Seeing it is a righteous thing with God, to recompence affliction to them that afflict you.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ And to you that are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels,

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ In flaming fire, taking vengeance on them who know not God, and who obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power,

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all that believe (now that our testimony was believed among you) in that day.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ To this end we pray always for you, that our God would make you worthy of this calling, and fulfill in you all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power;

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ That the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ and our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind or terrified, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter, as from us, as if the day of the Lord were at hand.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no man deceive you by any means, for that day shall not come, unless the falling away come first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition,

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God as God, declaring himself that he is God.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Remember ye not, that I told you these things, when I was yet with you?

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And now ye know that which with-holdeth, that he may be revealed in his time.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For the mystery of iniquity already worketh; only he that with-holdeth will with-hold, till he be taken out of the way.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then will that wicked one be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the Spirit of his mouth, and destroy with the brightness of his coming:

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ Whose coming is after the mighty working of Satan, with all power and signs and lying wonders,

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ And with all deceiveableness of unrighteousness in them that perish, because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:11 @ And therefore God shall send them strong delusion, so that that they shall believe a lie,

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ That they all may be condemned, who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to Salvation, thro' sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ To which he hath called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions, which ye have been taught, whether by word, or by our Epistle.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God even our Father, who hath loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope thro' grace,

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ Comfort your hearts and stablish you in every good word and work.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as among you:

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for all men have not faith.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful, who will stablish and guard you from the evil one.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we trust in the Lord concerning you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and the patience of Christ.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received of us.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For yourselves know how ye ought to imitate us: we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you,

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ Neither did we eat any man's bread for nothing, but wrought with labour and toil, night and day, that we might not burden any of you.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ Not because we have not power; but that we might make ourselves an example to you, that ye might imitate us.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For when we were with you, this we commanded you, If any will not work, neither let him eat.

wesleynt@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear there are some among you who walk disorderly, doing nothing, but being busy-bodies.

wesleynt@Philemon:1:3 @ Grace be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@Philemon:1:4 @ I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, (Hearing of thy faith which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus,

wesleynt@Philemon:1:6 @ toward all saints) That the communication of thy faith may become effectual, by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you through Christ Jesus.

wesleynt@Philemon:1:7 @ For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.

wesleynt@Philemon:1:8 @ Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ, to enjoin thee what is convenient,

wesleynt@Philemon:1:9 @ Yet out of love I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also the prisoner of Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@Philemon:1:10 @ I beseech thee for my son, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus, Who was formerly unprofitable to thee,

wesleynt@Philemon:1:13 @ Whom I would have retained with me, to serve me in thy stead, in the bonds of the gospel.

wesleynt@Philemon:1:15 @ And perhaps for this end was he separated for a season, that thou mightest have him for ever;

wesleynt@Philemon:1:16 @ No longer as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, especially to me; and how much more to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord?

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:1 @ God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake of old to the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken to us by his Son;

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:2 @ Whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom he also made the worlds:

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:3 @ Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and sustaining all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high,

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:4 @ Being made so much higher than the angels, as he hath by inheritance a more excellent name than they.

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels did he ever say, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:6 @ And again, When he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:7 @ And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:8 @ But unto the Son, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness:

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:9 @ Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:10 @ And, Thou, Lord, hast in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of thy hands.

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:11 @ They shall perish, but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:12 @ And as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:13 @ But to which of the angels did he ever say, Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

wesleynt@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministring spirits, sent forth to serve for them who shall inherit salvation?

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:1 @ Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence:

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:3 @ How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation, which began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by them that had heard him?

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:4 @ God also bearing them witness by signs, and wonders, and various miracles, and distributions of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:5 @ For he hath not subjected to the angels the world to come, whereof we speak.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:6 @ But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou visitest him?

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:7 @ Thou madest him a little lower than the angels, thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:8 @ Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. Now in putting all things in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him: but now we do not yet see all things put under him.

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

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it became him for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the captain of their salvation through sufferings.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both he that sanctifieth, and all they that are sanctified, are of one; for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, Saying, I will declare thy name to my brethren;

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:12 @ in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:13 @ And again, I will put my trust in him: And again, Behold I and the children whom God hath given me.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since then the children partake of flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner took part of the same, that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil:

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:15 @ And deliver them, as many as through fear of death, were all their life-time subject to bondage.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:16 @ For verily he taketh not hold of angels, but he taketh hold of the seed of Abraham.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:17 @ Wherefore it behoved him to be made in all things like his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high-priest, in things pertaining to God, to expiate the sins of the people.

wesleynt@Hebrews:2:18 @ For in that he hath suffered, being tempted himself, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:1 @ Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the apostle and high-priest of our profession,

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:2 @ Jesus, Faithful to him that appointed him, as was also Moses in all his house.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:3 @ For this person was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he that hath builded it hath more honour than the house.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:4 @ Now every house is built by some one: but he that built all things is God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses verily was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of the things, which were to be afterwards spoken:

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:6 @ But Christ as a Son over his own house, whose house we are, if we hold fast the confidence and the glorying of hope, firm to the end.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:7 @ Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith) To day,

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:8 @ if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness,

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:9 @ Where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was grieved with that generation and said, They always err in their hearts, and they have not know my ways.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:11 @ So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:12 @ Take heed, brethren, left there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God:

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:13 @ But exhort one another daily, while it is called to day, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin:

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:14 @ (For we are made partakers of Christ, if

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:15 @ we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end) While it is said; To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:16 @ For who, when they had heard, provoked God?

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:17 @ Were they not all that came out of Egypt by Moses? And with whom was he grieved forty years? Was it not with them who had sinned?

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:18 @ Whose carcases fell in the wilderness? And to whom sware he, that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?

wesleynt@Hebrews:3:19 @ So we see, they could not enter in, because of unbelief.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:1 @ Let us therefore fear, lest a promise being left us of entring into his rest, any of us should altogether come short of it.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:2 @ For unto us hath the gospel been preached as well as unto them; but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixt with faith in those that heard it.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we that have believed, do enter into the rest; as he said, I have sworn in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest, though the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:4 @ For he saith thus in a certain place, of the seventh day, And God rested on the seventh day from all his works: And in this again, They shall not enter into my rest.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:5 @ Seeing then it remaineth that some enter into it,

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:6 @ and they to whom the gospel was preached before,

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:7 @ entered not in because of unbelief, He again, after so long a time, fixeth a certain day, saying by David, To-day; as it was said before, To day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:8 @ For if Joshua had given them the rest, he would not have afterward spoken of another day.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:9 @ There remaineth therefore a rest for the people of God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:10 @ For he that hath entered into his rest, hath himself also ceased from his works, as God did from his.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:11 @ Let us labour, therefore, to enter into that rest, lest any one should fall, after the same example of unbelief.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder both of the soul and spirit, both of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:13 @ Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight; but all things are naked and opened to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:14 @ Having therefore a great high priest, that is passed thro' the heavens, Jesus the son of God,

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:15 @ let us hold fast our profession, For we have not an high-priest who cannot sympathize with our infirmities, but who was in all points tempted like as we are: yet without sin.

wesleynt@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:2 @ Who can have compassion on the ignorant and the wandering, seeing he himself also is compassed with infirmity,

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:3 @ And because hereof it behoveth him, as for the people, so also for himself to offer for sins.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:4 @ And no one taketh this honour to himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest, but he that said to him, Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:6 @ As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedeck:

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:7 @ Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications, with strong crying and tears, unto him that was able to save him from death, and being heard from his fears; Tho' he was a son,

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:8 @ yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered, And being perfected,

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:9 @ became the author of eternal salvation to all that obey him,

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:10 @ Called of God an high priest, after the order of Melchisedek.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:11 @ Concerning whom we have many things to say, and hard to be explained, seeing ye are become dull of hearing.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:12 @ For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again, which are the first principles of the oracles of God, and are become such as have need of milk and not of strong meat.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:13 @ For every one that useth milk is unexperienced in the word of righteousness; for he is a babe.

wesleynt@Hebrews:5:14 @ But strong meat belongeth to them of full age, to them who have their senses exercised by habit to discern both good and evil.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on to perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works,

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:2 @ and of faith in God, Of the doctrine of baptisms and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:3 @ And this we will do, if God permit.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible for those who were once inlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and been made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:5 @ And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:6 @ And have fallen away, to renew them again unto repentance, seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:7 @ For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh often upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whom it is tilled, receiveth blessing from God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:8 @ But that which beareth thorns and briars is rejected and nigh unto a curse, whose end is to be burned.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:9 @ But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unrighteous, to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:11 @ But we desire that every one of you would shew unto the end the same diligence, to the full assurance of hope,

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:12 @ That ye be not slothful, but followers of them, who through faith and long suffering inherited the promises.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:13 @ For when God made the promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater,

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:14 @ he swore by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:15 @ And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:16 @ For men verily swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all contradiction.

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:17 @ Wherefore God being willing to shew more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of his counsel, interposed by an oath:

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:18 @ That by two unchangeable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled to lay hold on the hope set before us:

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:19 @ Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil,

wesleynt@Hebrews:6:20 @ Whither Jesus our fore-runner is entered for us, made an high-priest for ever after the order of Melchisedek.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this Melchisedek king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him,

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:2 @ To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all the spoils; being by interpretation, first king of righteousness, and then king of Salem also, which is king of peace;

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:3 @ Without father, without mother, without pedigree, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life, but being made like the son of God, remaineth a priest continually.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now consider how great this man was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils,

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:5 @ And verily they of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment (according to the law) to take tithes of the people, that is, of their brethren, tho' they come out of the loins of Abraham.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:6 @ But he whose pedigree is not from them, took tythes of Abraham, and blessed him who had the promises:

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:7 @ And without all contradiction, the less is blessed of the greater.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:8 @ And here men that die receive tithes: but there, he of whom it is witnessed, that he liveth.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:9 @ And even Levi, who receiveth tithes, paid tithes (so to speak) thro' Abraham.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:10 @ For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedek met him.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:11 @ If then perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law) what farther need was there that another priest should rise, after the order of Melchisedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:12 @ For the priesthood being changed, there is also necessarily a change of the law.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:13 @ For he of whom these things are spoken, pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man attended on the altar.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident, that our Lord sprang out of Judah, of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning the priesthood.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is still far more evident, because another priest is raised up, after the likeness of Melchidek, Who was made not after the law of a carnal commandment,

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:16 @ but after the power of an endless life.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:17 @ For it is testified, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedek.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:18 @ For verily there is a disannulling of the preceding commandment, for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:19 @ For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did, by which we draw nigh to God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:20 @ And in as much as not without an oath he was made priest: (For those priests were made without an oath,

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:21 @ but this with an oath, by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedek:)

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:22 @ Of so much better a covenant was Jesus made a surety.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:23 @ And they truly were many priests, because they were hindered by death from continuing.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:24 @ But this, because he continueth for ever, hath a priesthood that passeth not away.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:25 @ Wherefore he is able also, to save them to the uttermost who come to God thro' him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:26 @ For such an high priest became us, holy, harmless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens:

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:27 @ Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, then for those of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.

wesleynt@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the law maketh men high priests that have infirmity; but the word of the oath which was since the law, maketh the son, who is consecrated for evermore.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:1 @ The sum of what hath been spoken is, We have such an high priest, who is set down at the right-hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:2 @ A minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord hath fixed and not man.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is ordained to offer up gifts and sacrifices; whence it was necessary, that this also should have somewhat to offer.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:4 @ For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest, there being priests that offer gifts, according to the law,

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:5 @ Who serve after the pattern and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God, when he was about to make the tabernacle; for, saith he, See thou make all things according to the pattern which was shewed thee on the mount.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:6 @ And now he hath obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much better a covenant he is a mediator of, which is established upon better promises.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:7 @ For if the first had been faultless, no place would have been sought for a second.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:8 @ For finding fault with them he saith, Behold the days come, saith the Lord, when I will finish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:9 @ Not according to the covenant which I made with their fathers, in the day when I took them by the hand, to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:10 @ For this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: I will put my laws in their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:11 @ And they shall not teach every one his neighbour, and every one his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least to the greatest.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.

wesleynt@Hebrews:8:13 @ In saying, a new covenant, he hath antiquated the first; now that which is antiquated and decayed, is ready to vanish away.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:1 @ And verily the first covenant also had ordinances of worship and a worldly sanctuary.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:2 @ For there was a tabernacle prepared, the first, in which was the candlestick, and the table, and the shew-bread; which is called The holy place.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:3 @ And after the second veil, the tabernacle, which is called The holy of holies,

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:4 @ Having the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant, overlaid round about with gold, wherein was a golden pot having the manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant:

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:5 @ And over it were the Cherubim of glory, shadowing the mercy-seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:6 @ Now these things being thus prepared, the priests go always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing their services.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:7 @ But into the second, only the high-priest once a year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself and the errors of the people:

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:8 @ The Holy Ghost evidently shewing this, that the way into the holiest was not yet made manifest, while the first tabernacle was still subsisting,

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:9 @ Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, which could not perfect the worshiper as to his conscience,

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:10 @ Only with meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed till the time of reformation.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:11 @ But Christ being come, an high-priest of good things to come, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle,

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:12 @ not made with hands, that is, not of this building, And not by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, entered in once for all into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:14 @ How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge our conscience from dead works, to serve the living God?

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this end he is the Mediator of a new covenant, that by means of death for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, they who are called might receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where a testament is, there must also necessarily be the death of the testator.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a testament is of force after men are dead; otherwise it is of no strength while the testator liveth.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:18 @ Whence neither was the first testament consecrated without blood.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:19 @ For when Moses had spoken all the commandment according to the law to all the people, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wooll, and hyssop, and the book itself,

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:20 @ and sprinkled all the people, Saying, This is the blood of the testament, which God hath enjoined unto you.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:21 @ And in like manner he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the service.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:22 @ And almost all things are according to the law purified with blood, and withoutshedding of blood there is no remission.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:23 @ It was therefore necessary, that the patterns of things in heaven should be purified by these, but the heavenly things themselves by better sacrifices than these.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ did not enter into the holy place made with hands, the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor did he enter, that he might offer himself often (as the high-priest entered into the holy place every year with the blood of others.)

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:26 @ For then he must often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once at the consummation of the ages hath he been manifested, to abolish sin by the sacrifice of himself.

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appointed for men once to die, and after this the judgment:

wesleynt@Hebrews:9:28 @ So Christ also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, will appear the second time, without sin, to them that look for him, unto salvation.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the law having a shadow of good things to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices which they offer year by year continually, make the comers thereunto perfect.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:2 @ Otherwise would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshipers, having been once purged, would have had no more consciousness of sins.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:3 @ But in those sacrifices, there is a commemoration of sins every year.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:4 @ For it is impossible, that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou hast not chosen, but a body hast thou prepared for me.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:6 @ Burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast not delighted in.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, Lo I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me) to do thy will, O God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:8 @ Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering, and burnt-offerings and offering for sin thou hast not chosen, neither delighted in, which are offered by the law:

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:9 @ Then said he, Lo, I come, to do thy will. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second:

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:10 @ By which will we are sanctified, through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:11 @ And every priest standeth daily ministring and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:12 @ But he having offered one sacrifice for sins,

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:13 @ for ever sat down at the right hand of God, From thenceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:15 @ And this the Holy Ghost also witnesseth to us,

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:16 @ for after he had said before, This is the covenant which I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord: I will put my laws into their hearts, and write them in their minds,

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:17 @ And their sins, and their iniquities will I remember no more.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:18 @ Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering (for he is faithful that hath promised) And let us consider one another,

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:24 @ to provoke one another to love and to good works:

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:25 @ Not forsaking the assembling ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another, and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:26 @ For when we sin wilfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:27 @ But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which will devour the adversaries.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:28 @ He that despised the law of Moses died without mercy, under two or three witnesses.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and counted the blood of the covenant, by which he hath been sanctified, an unholy thing, and done despite to the spirit of grace?

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:30 @ For we know him that hath said, Vengeance is mine; I will recompence: and again, The Lord will judge his people.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:31 @ It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:32 @ But call ye to mind the former days, in which, after ye were inlightened, ye endured so great a conflict of sufferings:

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:33 @ Partly being made a gazing-stock both by reproaches and afflictions; partly being partakers with them who were so used.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:34 @ For ye sympathized with my bonds, and received with joy the spoiling of your goods, knowing that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:35 @ Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:36 @ For ye have need of patience, that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:37 @ For yet a little while, and he that cometh will come and will not tarry.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:38 @ Now the just shall live by faith; but if he draw back, my soul hath no pleasure in him.

wesleynt@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of them who draw back to perdition, but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:3 @ Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were made of things which do not appear.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained a testimony that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and by it, being dead he yet speaketh.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was translated so as not to see death, and was not found, because God had translated him; for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith it is impossible to please him; for he that cometh to God, must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham, being called to go out into the place which he was to receive for an inheritance, obeyed and went out, not knowing whither he went.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the joint heirs of the same promise.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:10 @ For he looked for the city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith Sarah also herself received power to conceive seed, even when she was past age, because she accounted him faithful who had promised.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:12 @ Therefore there sprang even from one, and him as it were dead, as the stars of heaven for multitude, and as the sand which is on the sea-shore innumerable.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:13 @ All these died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and embraced them, and confest that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:14 @ For they who speak thus, shew plainly, that they seek their own country.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:15 @ And truly if they had been mindful of that from which they came out, they might have had opportunity to return.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:16 @ But they now desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he hath prepared a city for them.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, being tried, offered up Isaac, and he that had received the promises, offered up his only begotten son:

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:18 @ Of whom it had been said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called:

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:19 @ Accounting that God was able even to raise him from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, concerning things to come.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:21 @ By Faith Jacob when dying blessed each of the sons of Joseph and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, when dying, made mention of the children of Israel, and gave commandment concerning his bones.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months, by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child, and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:25 @ Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:26 @ Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he looked off unto the recompence of reward.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing him that is invisible.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:28 @ By faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the first born should touch them.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith they passed thro' the Red Sea, as by dry land, which the Egyptians trying to do, were drowned.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:30 @ By faith the walls of Jericho, having been compassed seven days, fell down.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what shall I say more? For the time would fail me, to tell of Gideon, and Barak, and Sampson, and Jephthah, and David, and Samuel, and the prophets:

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:36 @ And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:38 @ (Of whom the world was not worthy) they wandered in deserts, and mountains, and dens, and caves of the earth.

wesleynt@Hebrews:11:39 @ And all these having obtained a good testimony thro' faith,

wesleynt@Hebrews:12:9 @ Moreover we have had fathers of our flesh who corrected us, and we reverenced them: Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

wesleynt@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they, verily, for a few days chastned us as they thought good: but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.

wesleynt@Hebrews:12:11 @ Now all chastning for the present is assuredly not joyous, but grievous; yet afterwards it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness to them that are exercised thereby.

wesleynt@Hebrews:12:12 @ Wherefore Lift up the hands that hang down and the feeble knees:

wesleynt@Hebrews:12:13 @ And make strait paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way, but let it rather be healed.

wesleynt@Hebrews:12:16 @ as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright:

wesleynt@Hebrews:12:17 @ For ye know that afterward, even when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place for repentance, tho' he sought it diligently with tears.

wesleynt@James:2:3 @ And ye look upon him that weareth the fine apparel, and say to him, Sit thou here in a good place, and say to the poor man,

wesleynt@James:2:8 @ If ye fulfil the royal law (according to the Scripture) Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well.

wesleynt@James:2:9 @ But if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.

wesleynt@James:2:10 @ For whosoever shall keep the whole law, but offend in one point, is guilty of all.

wesleynt@James:2:11 @ For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. If then thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

wesleynt@James:2:12 @ So speak ye and so act, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

wesleynt@James:2:13 @ For judgment without mercy shall be to him that shewed no mercy: mercy glorieth over judgment.

wesleynt@James:2:14 @ What doth it profit, my brethren, tho' a man say he hath faith, and have not works?

wesleynt@James:2:15 @ Can that faith save him? If a brother or a sister be naked,

wesleynt@James:2:16 @ and want daily food, And one of you say to them, Depart in peace; be ye warmed and filled, but give them not the things needful for the body, what doth it profit?

wesleynt@James:2:18 @ But one will say, Thou hast faith, and I have works. Shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.

wesleynt@James:2:19 @ Thou believest there is one God: thou dost well: the devils also believe and tremble.

wesleynt@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered up Isaac his son upon the altar?

wesleynt@James:2:22 @ Thou seest that faith wrought together with his works, and by works was faith made perfect.

wesleynt@James:2:23 @ And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness: and he was called the friend of God.

wesleynt@James:2:24 @ Ye see then, that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

wesleynt@James:2:25 @ In like manner Rahab the harlot also was justified by works, having received the messengers and sent them out another way?

wesleynt@James:2:26 @ Therefore as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

wesleynt@James:3:13 @ Who is a wise and knowing man among you? Let him shew by a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.

wesleynt@James:3:14 @ But if ye have bitter zeal and strife in your hearts, do not glory and lie against the truth.

wesleynt@James:4:11 @ Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law. But if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

wesleynt@James:5:9 @ Murmur not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned; behold the judge standeth before the door.

wesleynt@James:5:10 @ Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering, affliction, and of patience.

wesleynt@James:5:11 @ Behold, we count them happy that have endured. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord: for the Lord is very pitiful and of tender mercy.

wesleynt@James:5:12 @ But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath; but let your yea be yea, and your nay nay, lest ye fall into condemnation.

wesleynt@James:5:13 @ Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any chearful? let him sing psalms.

wesleynt@James:5:14 @ Is any among you sick? let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, having anointed him with oil in the name of the Lord:

wesleynt@James:5:15 @ And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up, and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

wesleynt@James:5:16 @ Confess your faults one to another, brethren, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed: the fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

wesleynt@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man of like passions with us; and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the land for three years and six months.

wesleynt@James:5:18 @ And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and so the land gave forth her fruit.

wesleynt@James:5:19 @ Brethren, if any one among you err from the truth, and one convert him,

wesleynt@James:5:20 @ Let him know, that he who converteth a sinner from the error of his way, shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.

wesleynt@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his abundant mercy, hath begotten us again to a living hope, by the resurrection of Christ from the dead,

wesleynt@1Peter:1:7 @ That the trial of your faith, which is much more precious than gold, (that perisheth, tho' it be tried with fire) may be found unto praise, and honour, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

wesleynt@1Peter:1:8 @ Whom having not seen, ye love: in whom tho' ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory, Receiving the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

wesleynt@1Peter:1:9 @ Of which salvation the prophets enquired and searched diligently,

wesleynt@1Peter:1:10 @ who prophesied of the grace of God toward you.

wesleynt@1Peter:1:11 @ Searching what, and what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them signified, when he testified before hand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that should follow.

wesleynt@1Peter:1:12 @ To whom it was revealed, that not for themselves, but for us they ministered the things which have been now declared to you by them that have preached the gospel to you, with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven: which things angels desire to look into.

wesleynt@1Peter:1:13 @ Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be watchful and hope perfectly for the grace that is brought you by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@1Peter:1:15 @ But as he who hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation:

wesleynt@1Peter:1:17 @ And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning in fear:

wesleynt@1Peter:1:18 @ Seeing ye know ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation delivered by tradition from your fathers,

wesleynt@1Peter:1:19 @ But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot,

wesleynt@1Peter:1:25 @ But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which is preached to you by the gospel.

wesleynt@1Peter:2:1 @ Wherefore laying aside all wickedness, and all guile, and dissimulation, and envies,

wesleynt@1Peter:2:3 @ If ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious:

wesleynt@1Peter:2:6 @ Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious, and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

wesleynt@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore to you who believe, he is precious: but to them who believe not, The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner.

wesleynt@1Peter:2:8 @ And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, to them who stumble, not believing the word, whereunto also they were appointed.

wesleynt@1Peter:2:9 @ But ye are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a purchased people, that ye may shew forth the virtues of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Who in time past were not a people, but now are the people of God;

wesleynt@1Peter:2:20 @ For what glory is it, if when ye commit faults and are buffeted, ye take it patiently? But if when ye do well and suffer, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

wesleynt@1Peter:2:21 @ For even hereunto are ye called; for Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye might follow his steps:

wesleynt@1Peter:2:22 @ Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

wesleynt@1Peter:2:23 @ Who when he was reviled, reviled not again, when he suffered he threatened not, but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

wesleynt@1Peter:2:24 @ Who himself bore our sins in his own body on the tree, that we being dead to sin might live to righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

wesleynt@1Peter:2:25 @ For ye were as sheep going astray, but are now returned to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.

wesleynt@1Peter:3:1 @ In like manner, ye wives, be subject to your own husbands, that if any obey not the word, they also may, without the word, be won by the conversation of the wives,

wesleynt@1Peter:3:3 @ Whose adorning let it not be the outward adorning of curling the hair, and of wearing gold, or of putting on apparel, But the hidden man of the heart,

wesleynt@1Peter:3:7 @ In like manner, ye husbands, dwell according to knowledge with the woman, as the weaker vessel; giving them honour, as being also joint-heirs of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.

wesleynt@1Peter:3:9 @ Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing, but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are called to this, to inherit a blessing.

wesleynt@1Peter:3:10 @ For he that loveth life and desireth to see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips, that they speak no guile:

wesleynt@1Peter:3:12 @ For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayers, but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

wesleynt@1Peter:3:13 @ And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?

wesleynt@1Peter:3:14 @ But even if ye do suffer for righteousness sake, happy are ye; and be not afraid of their terror, neither be ye troubled, But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:

wesleynt@1Peter:3:15 @ And be always ready to give an answer to every one that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear:

wesleynt@1Peter:3:16 @ Having a good conscience, that whereas they speak against you as evil doers, they may be ashamed who falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

wesleynt@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well-doing than for evil-doing.

wesleynt@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ also once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh,

wesleynt@1Peter:3:19 @ but raised to life by the spirit, By which likewise he went and preached to the spirits in prison,

wesleynt@1Peter:3:20 @ Who some time disbelieved, when the long-suffering of God waited in the Days of Noah, while the ark was preparing, wherein few, that is, eight persons were saved through the water:

wesleynt@1Peter:3:21 @ The antitype whereof, baptism, now saveth us, (not the putting away the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

wesleynt@1Peter:3:22 @ Who being gone into heaven, is on the right-hand of God, angels, and authorities, and powers being subjected to him.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:1 @ Seeing then Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind:

wesleynt@1Peter:4:2 @ (for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin) That ye may no longer live the rest of your time in the flesh, to the desire of men, but to the will of God.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:3 @ For the time past of your life sufficeth to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when ye walked in lasciviousness, evil desires, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:4 @ Wherein they think it strange, that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot,

wesleynt@1Peter:4:5 @ speaking evil of you, Who shall give account to him that is ready judge the living and the dead.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:6 @ For to this end was the gospel preached to them that are dead also, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the Spirit.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:7 @ But the end of all things is at hand; be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:8 @ And above all things, have fervent love to each other; for love will cover a multitude of sins.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:9 @ Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:10 @ As every one hath received a gift, so minister it one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:11 @ If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God: if any man minister, let him minister as of the ability which God giveth, that God in all things may be glorified thro' Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the might for ever and ever. Amen.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, wonder not at the burning which is among you, which is for your trial, as if some strange thing befell you: But as ye partake of the sufferings of Christ,

wesleynt@1Peter:4:13 @ rejoice, that when his glory shall be revealed, ye may likewise rejoice with exceeding great joy.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:14 @ If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil-spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.

wesleynt@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as a meddler in other mens matters,

wesleynt@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of God: but if it begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

wesleynt@1Peter:4:18 @ And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

wesleynt@1Peter:4:19 @ Wherefore let them also that suffer according to the will of God, commit the keeping of their souls to him in well-doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

wesleynt@1Peter:5:1 @ The elders that are among you I exhort, who am a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and likewise a partaker of the glory which shall be revealed,

wesleynt@1Peter:5:5 @ In like manner, ye younger, submit yourselves to the elder, and be ye all subject to each other. Be ye cloathed with humility; for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

wesleynt@1Peter:5:6 @ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace and peace be multiplied unto you, thro' the knowledge of God, and of Jesus, our Lord;

wesleynt@2Peter:1:3 @ As his divine power hath given us all things that pertain to life and godliness, thro' the knowledge of him that hath called us by glory and virtue,

wesleynt@2Peter:1:4 @ By which he hath given us exceeding great and precious promises, that by these, having escaped the corruption which is in the world thro' desire, ye may become partakers of the divine nature:

wesleynt@2Peter:1:8 @ For these being in you and abounding, make you neither slothful nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:9 @ But he that wanteth these is blind, not able to see afar off, having forgotten the purification from his old sins.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:10 @ Wherefore the rather, brethren, be diligent to make your calling and election firm; for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:11 @ For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:12 @ Wherefore I will not neglect always to remind you of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the present truth,

wesleynt@2Peter:1:15 @ But I will endeavour, that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:16 @ For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye-witnesses of his majesty.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:17 @ For he received honour and glory from God the Father, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I delight.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:18 @ And we being with him in the holy mountain, heard this voice coming from heaven:

wesleynt@2Peter:1:19 @ And we have the word of prophecy more confirmed, to which ye do well that ye take heed, as to a lamp that shone in a dark place, till the day should dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts:

wesleynt@2Peter:1:20 @ Knowing this before that no scripture prophecy is of any private interpretation.

wesleynt@2Peter:1:21 @ For prophecy never came by the will of man, but the holy men of God spake being moved by the Holy Ghost.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were false prophets also among the people, as there shall likewise be false teachers among you, who will privily bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:2 @ And many will follow their pernicious ways, by reason of whom the way of truth will be evil spoken of.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:3 @ And through covetousness will they with feigned speeches make merchandize of you, whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their destruction slumbereth not.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, delivered them to chains of darkness,

wesleynt@2Peter:2:5 @ to be reserved to judgment, And spared not the old world, (but he saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness) bringing a flood on the world of the ungodly;

wesleynt@2Peter:2:6 @ And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example to them that should afterwards live ungodly:

wesleynt@2Peter:2:7 @ And delivered righteous Lot, vexed with the filthy behaviour of the wicked:

wesleynt@2Peter:2:8 @ (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds).

wesleynt@2Peter:2:9 @ The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to reserve the unrighteous to the day of judgment to be punished.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:10 @ But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise government: presumptuous, self-willed; they are not afraid to rail at dignities:

wesleynt@2Peter:2:11 @ Whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, bring not a railing accusation against them before the Lord.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:13 @ Receiving the reward of unrighteousness. They count it pleasure to riot in the day time; spots and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings, while they feast with you,

wesleynt@2Peter:2:14 @ Having eyes full of adultery, and that cease not from sin; beguiling unstable souls, having hearts exercised with covetousness, accursed children:

wesleynt@2Peter:2:15 @ Who have forsaken the right way and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam, the son of Boser, who loved the reward of unrighteousness.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:16 @ But he had a rebuke for his iniquity: the dumb ass, speaking with man's voice, forbad the madness of the prophet.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:17 @ These are wells without water, clouds driven by a tempest, to whom the blackness of darkness is reserved for ever.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:18 @ For by speaking swelling words of vanity, they allure thro' the desire of the flesh, thro' wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them that live in error.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:19 @ While they promise them liberty, themselves are the slaves of corruption; for by whom a man is overcome, by him he is also brought into slavery.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:20 @ For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world, thro the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again intangled therein and overcome, their last state is worse then the first.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:21 @ For it had been better for them, not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

wesleynt@2Peter:2:22 @ But it has befallen them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit, and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

wesleynt@2Peter:3:2 @ That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Saviour: Knowing this first,

wesleynt@2Peter:3:3 @ that there will come scoffers in the last days,

wesleynt@2Peter:3:6 @ Thro' which the world that then was, being overflowed with water perished.

wesleynt@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and the earth that are now, are by his word kept in store reserved unto fire, against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

wesleynt@2Peter:3:8 @ But, beloved, be not ye ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

wesleynt@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow concerning his promise (tho' some men count it slowness) but is long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

wesleynt@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, the elements shall melt with fervent heat, and the earth, and the works that are therein, shall be burnt up.

wesleynt@2Peter:3:11 @ Seeing then all these things are dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

wesleynt@2Peter:3:12 @ Looking for and hastning the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

wesleynt@1John:2:17 @ And the world passeth away, and the desire thereof; but he that doth the will of God abideth for ever.

wesleynt@1John:2:18 @ Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that Antichrist cometh, so even now there are many Antichrists, whereby we know that it is the last time.

wesleynt@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us: for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest, that they were not all of us.

wesleynt@1John:2:20 @ But ye have an anointing from the Holy one, and know all things.

wesleynt@1John:2:21 @ I have not written to you, because ye know not the truth; but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

wesleynt@1John:2:22 @ Who is that liar, but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is Antichrist who denieth the Father and the Son.

wesleynt@1John:2:23 @ Whosoever denieth the Son, he hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son, hath the Father also.

wesleynt@1John:2:24 @ Therefore let that abide in you which ye heard from the beginning: if that which ye heard from the beginning abide in you, ye also shall abide in the Son and in the Father.

wesleynt@1John:2:25 @ And this is the promise which he hath promised us, eternal life.

wesleynt@1John:2:26 @ These things have I written to you, concerning them that seduce you.

wesleynt@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any should teach you, save as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie; and as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in them.

wesleynt@1John:2:28 @ And now, beloved children, abide in him, that when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

wesleynt@1John:2:29 @ If ye know, that he is righteous, ye know that every one who doth righteousness is born of him.

wesleynt@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the Sons of God; therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

wesleynt@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know, when he shall appear, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

wesleynt@1John:3:3 @ And every one that hath this hope in him, purifieth himself even as he is pure.

wesleynt@1John:3:4 @ Whosoever committeth sin, transgresseth also the law; for sin is the transgression of the law.

wesleynt@1John:3:5 @ And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins, and in him is no sin.

wesleynt@1John:3:6 @ Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not; whosoever sinneth, seeth him not, neither knoweth him.

wesleynt@1John:3:7 @ Beloved children, let no one deceive you. He that practiseth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

wesleynt@1John:3:8 @ He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning: to this end the son of God was manifested, to destroy the works of the devil.

wesleynt@1John:3:9 @ Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed abideth in him, and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

wesleynt@1John:3:10 @ Hereby the children of God are manifest and the children of the devil: whosoever practiseth not righteousness is not of God; neither he that loveth not his brother.

wesleynt@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message which ye heard from the beginning, that we love one another.

wesleynt@1John:3:12 @ Not as Cain, who was of the wicked one, and slew his brother.

wesleynt@1John:3:13 @ And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

wesleynt@1John:3:14 @ We know, that we are passed from death to life, because we love the brethren: he that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

wesleynt@1John:3:15 @ Whosoever hateth his brother is a murtherer, and ye know that no murtherer hath eternal life abiding in him.

wesleynt@1John:3:16 @ Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

wesleynt@1John:3:17 @ But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

wesleynt@1John:3:18 @ My beloved children, let us love not in word, neither in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

wesleynt@1John:3:19 @ And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

wesleynt@1John:3:20 @ For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

wesleynt@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

wesleynt@1John:3:23 @ And this is his commandment, that we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

wesleynt@1John:3:24 @ And he that keepeth his commandments, abideth in him, and he in him: and hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

wesleynt@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

wesleynt@1John:4:2 @ Hereby ye know the spirit of God: every spirit which confesseth Jesus Christ come in the flesh, is of God.

wesleynt@1John:4:3 @ And every spirit which confesseth not Jesus Christ come in the flesh, is not of God: and this is that spirit of Antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and now already it is in the world.

wesleynt@1John:4:4 @ Ye are of God, beloved children, and have overcome them; because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

wesleynt@1John:4:5 @ They are of the world; therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

wesleynt@1John:4:6 @ We are of God; he that knoweth God, heareth us: he that is not of God, heareth not us: hereby know we the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

wesleynt@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God, and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

wesleynt@1John:4:8 @ He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love.

wesleynt@1John:4:9 @ Hereby was manifested the love of God toward us, because God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

wesleynt@1John:4:10 @ Herein is love; not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son, a propitiation for our sins.

wesleynt@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

wesleynt@1John:4:12 @ No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

wesleynt@1John:4:13 @ Hereby we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

wesleynt@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and testify, that the Father sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.

wesleynt@1John:4:15 @ Whosoever shall confess, that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.

wesleynt@1John:4:16 @ And we know and believe the love that God hath to us. God is love, and he that abideth in love, abideth in God, and God in him.

wesleynt@1John:4:17 @ Hereby is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, so are we in this world.

wesleynt@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casteth out fear, because fear hath torment.

wesleynt@1John:4:19 @ He that feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us.

wesleynt@1John:4:20 @ If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God, whom he hath not seen?

wesleynt@1John:4:21 @ And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God, love his brother also.

wesleynt@1John:5:1 @ Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God; and every one who loveth him that begat, loveth him also that is begotten of him.

wesleynt@1John:5:2 @ Hereby we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.

wesleynt@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not grievous.

wesleynt@1John:5:4 @ For whosoever is born of God overcometh the world; and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

wesleynt@1John:5:5 @ Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

wesleynt@1John:5:6 @ This is he that came by water and blood; even Jesus Christ; not by the water only, but by the water and the blood: and it is the Spirit who testifieth; because the Spirit is truth.

wesleynt@1John:5:7 @ For there are three that testify on earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood, and these three agree in one.

wesleynt@1John:5:8 @ And there are three that testify in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost, and these three are one.

wesleynt@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; and this is the testimony of God, which he hath testified of his Son.

wesleynt@1John:5:10 @ He that believeth on the Son of God, hath the testimony in himself. He that believeth not God, hath made him a liar, because he believeth not the testimony which he hath testified of his Son.

wesleynt@1John:5:11 @ And this is the testimony, that God hath given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

wesleynt@1John:5:12 @ He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

wesleynt@1John:5:13 @ These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the Son of God.

wesleynt@1John:5:14 @ And this is the confidence which we have in him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us.

wesleynt@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that he heareth us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we asked of him.

wesleynt@1John:5:16 @ If any one see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, let him ask, and he will give him life for them that sin not unto death.

wesleynt@1John:5:17 @ There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for that. All unrighteousness is sin: but there is a sin not unto death.

wesleynt@1John:5:19 @ but he that is born of God keepeth himself, and the wicked one toucheth him not. We know, that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in the wicked one.

wesleynt@1John:5:20 @ But we know that the Son of God is come; and he hath given us an understanding that we may know the true one; and we are in the true one, even in his Son Jesus Christ; this is the true God and eternal life.

wesleynt@2John:1:1 @ The elder unto the elect Kuria and her children, whom I love in the truth, and not I only, but likewise all who know the truth, For the truth's sake,

wesleynt@2John:1:3 @ Grace be with you, mercy and peace from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

wesleynt@2John:1:4 @ I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in the truth, as we received commandment from the Father.

wesleynt@2John:1:5 @ And now I beseech thee, Kuria, (not as writing a new commandment to thee, but that which we had from the beginning ) that we may love one another.

wesleynt@2John:1:6 @ And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment as ye have heard from the beginning, that ye may walk in it.

wesleynt@2John:1:7 @ For many seducers are entered into the world, who confess not Jesus Christ that came in the flesh.

wesleynt@2John:1:8 @ This is the seducer and the antichrist. Look to yourselves, that we lose not the things we have wrought, but receive a full reward.

wesleynt@2John:1:9 @ Whosoever transgresseth and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God:

wesleynt@2John:1:10 @ he that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If any come to you, and bring not this doctrine,

wesleynt@2John:1:11 @ receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed. For he that biddeth him God speed, is partaker of his evil deeds.

wesleynt@2John:1:13 @ The children of thy elect sister salute thee. Amen.

wesleynt@3John:1:1 @ The elder unto the well-beloved Caius, whom I truly love.

wesleynt@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, I wish above all things, that thou mayst prosper and be in health, as thy soul prospereth.

wesleynt@3John:1:3 @ For I rejoiced greatly when the brethren came, and testified of the truth that is in thee, as thou walkest in the truth.

wesleynt@3John:1:4 @ I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my children walk in the truth.

wesleynt@3John:1:5 @ Beloved, thou dost faithfully whatsoever thou dost to the brethren and to strangers,

wesleynt@3John:1:6 @ Who have testified of thy love before the church; whom if thou send forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt do well.

wesleynt@3John:1:7 @ For they went forth for his sake, taking nothing of the Gentiles.

wesleynt@3John:1:8 @ We ought therefore to receive such, that we may be fellow-helpers to the truth.

wesleynt@3John:1:9 @ I wrote to the church; but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the pre-eminence among them, receiveth us not.

wesleynt@3John:1:10 @ Wherefore if I come I will remember his wicked deeds which he doth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church.

wesleynt@3John:1:11 @ Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that is a doer of good is of God, but he that is a doer of evil, hath not seen God.

wesleynt@3John:1:12 @ Demetrius hath a good testimony from all men, and from the truth itself: yea, we also bear testimony, and ye know that our testimony is true.

wesleynt@3John:1:13 @ I had many things to write; but I will not write to thee with ink and pen.

wesleynt@3John:1:14 @ But I trust to see thee shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Salute the friends by name.

wesleynt@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write to you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write to you and exhort you, to contend earnestly for the faith which was once delivered to the saints.

wesleynt@Jude:1:4 @ For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were of old described before with regard to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@Jude:1:5 @ I am therefore willing to remind you, who once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.

wesleynt@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels, who kept not their first dignity, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness to the judgment of the great day.

wesleynt@Jude:1:7 @ Even as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them, which in the same manner with these gave themselves over to fornication, and went after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

wesleynt@Jude:1:8 @ In like manner these dreamers also defile the flesh, despise authority, rail at dignities.

wesleynt@Jude:1:9 @ Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil, he disputed concerning the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

wesleynt@Jude:1:10 @ But these rail at all the things which they know not: and all the things which they know naturally, as the brute beasts, in these they are defiled.

wesleynt@Jude:1:11 @ Wo to them; for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah.

wesleynt@Jude:1:12 @ These are spots in your feasts of love, while they banquet with you feeding themselves without fear: clouds without water, driven about of winds; trees without leaves, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

wesleynt@Jude:1:17 @ But ye, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.

wesleynt@Jude:1:18 @ For they told you, In the last time there will be mockers, walking after their own ungodly desires.

wesleynt@Jude:1:19 @ These are they who separate themselves, sensual, not having the Spirit.

wesleynt@Jude:1:20 @ But ye, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying thro' the Holy Spirit.
