riversident@Matthew:1:1 @ THE ancestral line of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham:

riversident@Matthew:1:16 @ Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

riversident@Matthew:1:18 @ The birth of Jesus was in this way: His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, but before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.

riversident@Matthew:1:19 @ Joseph, her husband, being an upright man, and yet not willing to make her a public example, resolved to dismiss her privately.

riversident@Matthew:1:21 @ She will bear a son and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."

riversident@Matthew:1:23 @ "Behold the virgin will conceive and will bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel" (note:)which means, God is with us(:note).

riversident@Matthew:1:25 @ But he did not live with her as a husband until she had borne a son. He called his name Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:2:1 @ AFTER Jesus had been born in Bethlehem, in Judaea, in the days of Herod the King, wise men from the East arrived at Jerusalem,

riversident@Matthew:2:3 @ When King Herod heard it, he was disturbed, and so was all Jerusalem.

riversident@Matthew:2:11 @ They entered the house and saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and did him homage. Then they opened their treasures and presented to him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.

riversident@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, seeing that he had been outwitted by the wise men, became furious, and sent out and killed all the boy babies two years old and under in Bethlehem and all its neighborhood, guided by the date which he had carefully learned from the wise men.

riversident@Matthew:2:18 @ "A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and bitter lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children, and she would not be comforted because they are not."

riversident@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judaea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there, and being directed in a dream he went away to the region of Galilee

riversident@Matthew:3:4 @ This John had his clothing of camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.

riversident@Matthew:3:5 @ Then went out to him Jerusalem and all Judaea and all the neighborhood of the Jordan

riversident@Matthew:3:12 @ He has his fan in his hand and will thoroughly clean his threshing-floor. He will gather his grain into his storehouse, but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable."

riversident@Matthew:3:13 @ Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John to be baptized by him.

riversident@Matthew:3:15 @ Jesus replied, Then he permitted him.

riversident@Matthew:3:16 @ Jesus, as soon as he was baptized, went up from the water, and the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and coming upon him.

riversident@Matthew:4:1 @ THEN Jesus was led by the Spirit up into the wild country to be tempted by the Devil.

riversident@Matthew:4:7 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:4:10 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:4:12 @ When Jesus heard that John had been betrayed, he went away into Galilee.

riversident@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to proclaim and say,

riversident@Matthew:4:23 @ Jesus went around through the whole of Galilee, teaching in the synagogues and proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every infirmity among the people.

riversident@Matthew:4:24 @ His fame spread out into all Syria, and they brought to him all who were sick with various diseases and those suffering from acute pain, demoniacs, lunatics, and paralytics, and he healed them.

riversident@Matthew:4:25 @ Great crowds followed him from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judaea and from beyond the Jordan.

riversident@Matthew:7:28 @ When Jesus ended these words, the crowds were astonished at his teaching.

riversident@Matthew:8:1 @ WHEN Jesus had come down from the mountain, great crowds followed him.

riversident@Matthew:8:3 @ Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him and said, Instantly his leprosy was cleansed away.

riversident@Matthew:8:4 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:8:5 @ When Jesus had entered Capernaum there came to him a Centurion who implored his help.

riversident@Matthew:8:6 @ "Sir," he said, "my servant lies in my house a paralytic, in great distress."

riversident@Matthew:8:7 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:8:8 @ The Centurion answered, "Sir, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof; but just speak the word and my servant will be cured.

riversident@Matthew:8:10 @ When Jesus heard this, he was astonished and said,

riversident@Matthew:8:13 @ Then Jesus said to the Centurion, His servant was healed that very hour.

riversident@Matthew:8:14 @ When Jesus entered the house of Peter, he saw his wife's mother lying sick with fever.

riversident@Matthew:8:18 @ When Jesus saw a crowd around him, he gave directions to go over to the other side of the lake.

riversident@Matthew:8:20 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:8:22 @ But Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:8:25 @ His disciples came to him and woke him and said, "Master, save us. We are going down."

riversident@Matthew:8:29 @ Suddenly they shouted, "Son of God, what have you to do with us? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"

riversident@Matthew:8:31 @ The demons begged him, "If you cast us out, send us into the herd of swine."

riversident@Matthew:8:32 @ He said to them, So they went out and entered into the swine. Then suddenly the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and died in the waves.

riversident@Matthew:8:34 @ Then at once all the town came out to meet Jesus, and when they saw him they begged him to depart from their neighborhood.

riversident@Matthew:9:1 @ SO Jesus got into the boat and crossed over and came to his own city.

riversident@Matthew:9:2 @ They brought to him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith he said to the paralytic,

riversident@Matthew:9:4 @ Jesus knew their thoughts and said,

riversident@Matthew:9:7 @ Thereupon he rose and went away to his house.

riversident@Matthew:9:9 @ As Jesus was passing along from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. Jesus said to him, and he arose and followed him.

riversident@Matthew:9:10 @ It happened that, while he was reclining at table in the house, many tax collectors and sinners came in and reclined at the table with Jesus and his disciples.

riversident@Matthew:9:12 @ Jesus heard it and said,

riversident@Matthew:9:14 @ Then the disciples of John came to Jesus and said, "Why are we and the Pharisees fasting while your disciples are not fasting?"

riversident@Matthew:9:18 @ While Jesus was talking to them, a synagogue Director came and bowed down before him and said, "My daughter has just died; but come and lay your hand upon her and she will live."

riversident@Matthew:9:19 @ Jesus rose and followed him, and so did his disciples.

riversident@Matthew:9:22 @ But Jesus turned and, seeing her, said, The woman was cured from that hour.

riversident@Matthew:9:23 @ Jesus entered the house of the Director and saw the flute-players and the crowd that was noisily lamenting, and he said,

riversident@Matthew:9:27 @ As Jesus was going along from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, "Have pity on us, Son of David."

riversident@Matthew:9:28 @ After he had entered the house, these blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, They said, "Yes, Sir."

riversident@Matthew:9:30 @ And their eyes were opened. Jesus sternly commanded them,

riversident@Matthew:9:35 @ Jesus made a circuit through all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every infirmity.

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

riversident@Matthew:10:5 @ These twelve Jesus sent out and directed them:

riversident@Matthew:11:1 @ WHEN Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went away from that place to teach and preach in the towns.

riversident@Matthew:11:4 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@Matthew:11:7 @ As these men went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John:

riversident@Matthew:11:20 @ Then he began to reproach the cities in which most of his miracles had been done, because they had not repented:

riversident@Matthew:11:25 @ At that time Jesus said,

riversident@Matthew:12:1 @ AT that time Jesus went on the Sabbath through the grain-fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain to eat.

riversident@Matthew:12:10 @ A man was there with a withered hand. They asked Jesus, "Is it allowable to heal on the Sabbath?" \'97 so that they might have something to accuse him of.

riversident@Matthew:12:15 @ But Jesus was aware of it and went away from that place. Many followed him and he healed them all;

riversident@Matthew:12:18 @ "Behold my servant whom I have chosen, the Beloved in whom my soul delights. I will put my spirit upon him and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

riversident@Matthew:12:20 @ A bruised reed he will not break, and a low-burning wick he will, not quench, until he has carried justice to victory.

riversident@Matthew:12:22 @ Then there was brought to Jesus a demoniac, blind and dumb. He healed him so that he spoke and saw.

riversident@Matthew:12:46 @ While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers were standing outside, trying to speak to him.

riversident@Matthew:13:1 @ ON that day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the lake.

riversident@Matthew:13:3 @ He spoke at length to them in illustrations. he said,

riversident@Matthew:13:24 @ Another illustration he put before them. He said,

riversident@Matthew:13:31 @ Another illustration he put before them. He said,

riversident@Matthew:13:33 @ Another illustration he spoke to them.

riversident@Matthew:13:34 @ All of these things Jesus spoke to them in illustrations, and without an illustration he spoke nothing to them,

riversident@Matthew:13:35 @ to fulfill the words of the prophet when he said, "I will open my mouth in illustrations, I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world."

riversident@Matthew:13:36 @ Then leaving the crowds he came into the house, and his disciples came to him and said, "Explain to us the illustration of the weeds of the field."

riversident@Matthew:13:53 @ When Jesus had finished these illustrations, he went away from that place.

riversident@Matthew:13:56 @ And his sisters \'97 are they not all here with us? Where then did he get all this?"

riversident@Matthew:13:57 @ So they fell into mistake about him. But Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:13:58 @ Because of their unbelief he worked there but few miracles.

riversident@Matthew:14:1 @ AT that time Herod the Prince heard the reports about Jesus

riversident@Matthew:14:2 @ and said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist. He has risen from the dead and so miraculous powers are working in him."

riversident@Matthew:14:5 @ Although he wished to kill him, he was afraid of the people because they held him for a prophet.

riversident@Matthew:14:12 @ The disciples of John came and took the body and buried it, and then they came and told Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:14:13 @ Upon hearing of it, Jesus went away in a boat privately to an uninhabited place. But the people heard of it and followed him by land from the towns.

riversident@Matthew:14:16 @ But Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:14:21 @ Those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

riversident@Matthew:14:27 @ But at once Jesus spoke to them and said,

riversident@Matthew:14:29 @ Jesus said, Then Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:14:31 @ At once Jesus stretched out his hand and grasped him and said,

riversident@Matthew:15:1 @ THEN scribes and Pharisees came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said,

riversident@Matthew:15:15 @ Peter said, "Explain to us your figure."

riversident@Matthew:15:16 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@Matthew:15:21 @ Leaving that place, Jesus retired into the region of Tyre and Sidon.

riversident@Matthew:15:23 @ But he did not answer her a word. Then his disciples came and begged him, saying, "Send her away; she keeps calling out behind us."

riversident@Matthew:15:28 @ Then Jesus said to her, And her daughter was cured from that hour.

riversident@Matthew:15:29 @ On leaving there, Jesus came along by the lake of Galilee and went up on the mountain and sat down there.

riversident@Matthew:15:32 @ Jesus called his disciples to him and said,

riversident@Matthew:15:34 @ Jesus said, They said, "Seven, and a few small fishes."

riversident@Matthew:15:38 @ There were four thousand men that ate, besides women and children.

riversident@Matthew:16:1 @ THE Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus, and, in order to put him to a test, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.

riversident@Matthew:16:6 @ and Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:16:7 @ They were discussing this among themselves, saying, "It is because we have brought no bread."

riversident@Matthew:16:8 @ But Jesus, when he knew it, said,

riversident@Matthew:16:13 @ After corning into the neighborhood of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked his disciples,

riversident@Matthew:16:17 @ Jesus replied,

riversident@Matthew:16:21 @ From that time Jesus began to make plain to his disciples that he had to go away to Jerusalem, and suffer greatly from the elders and high priests and scribes, and be killed and on the third day be raised.

riversident@Matthew:16:24 @ Then Jesus said to his disciples,

riversident@Matthew:17:1 @ Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain alone.

riversident@Matthew:17:4 @ Peter said to Jesus, "Sir, it is fine for us to be here. If you like, I will make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah."

riversident@Matthew:17:7 @ But Jesus came and touched them and said,

riversident@Matthew:17:8 @ When they raised their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus himself alone.

riversident@Matthew:17:9 @ As they were descending the mountain, Jesus charged them,

riversident@Matthew:17:10 @ The disciples asked him, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

riversident@Matthew:17:14 @ When they reached the crowd, a man came to Jesus and knelt to him and said,

riversident@Matthew:17:17 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@Matthew:17:18 @ Then Jesus rebuked the demon, and he came out of him and the boy was well from that hour.

riversident@Matthew:17:19 @ Then the disciples came to Jesus aside and said, "Why were we unable to cast it out?"

riversident@Matthew:17:22 @ While they were assembling in Galilee, Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:17:25 @ He said, "Yes." But when he went into the house Jesus spoke first to him and said,

riversident@Matthew:17:26 @ Upon his saying, "From those who are not," Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:18:1 @ AT that time the disciples came to Jesus saying, "Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"

riversident@Matthew:18:22 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:19:1 @ WHEN Jesus had finished these words, he left Galilee and came within that part of Judaea beyond the Jordan.

riversident@Matthew:19:3 @ Then some Pharisees came to him to test him. They said, "Is it allowable for a man to divorce his wife for any and every cause?"

riversident@Matthew:19:14 @ But Jesus said,

riversident@Matthew:19:18 @ He said to him, "Which?" Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:19:21 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:19:23 @ Jesus said to his disciples,

riversident@Matthew:19:26 @ Jesus looked at them and said,

riversident@Matthew:19:28 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:20:17 @ As Jesus was about to go up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve aside on the road and said to them,

riversident@Matthew:20:22 @ Jesus answered, They said to him, 'We can?'

riversident@Matthew:20:25 @ But Jesus called them to him and said,

riversident@Matthew:20:30 @ Two blind men were sitting at the side of the road, and when they heard that Jesus was passing, they cried out, "Sir, have pity on us, Son of David!"

riversident@Matthew:20:31 @ The crowd rebuked them and told them to be silent. But all the more they cried, "Sir, have pity on us, Son of David!"

riversident@Matthew:20:32 @ Jesus stopped and called them and said,

riversident@Matthew:20:34 @ Jesus had compassion on them and touched their eyes, and at once they regained sight and followed him.

riversident@Matthew:21:1 @ WHEN they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,

riversident@Matthew:21:6 @ The disciples went and did as Jesus had bidden them,

riversident@Matthew:21:10 @ When he entered Jerusalem all the city was shaken, and people said, "Who is this?"

riversident@Matthew:21:11 @ The crowds said, "This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth in Galilee."

riversident@Matthew:21:12 @ Jesus went into the Temple courts and drove out all those who were selling and buying there. He overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who were selling doves,

riversident@Matthew:21:16 @ and said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?" Jesus said,

riversident@Matthew:21:21 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:21:24 @ Jesus replied to them,

riversident@Matthew:21:25 @ They debated among themselves, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say to us, 'Why then did you not believe him?'

riversident@Matthew:21:27 @ So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." He in turn said to them,

riversident@Matthew:21:31 @ They said, "The last." Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:21:42 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:21:45 @ The high priests and the Pharisees listening to his illustrations knew that he was speaking about them.

riversident@Matthew:22:1 @ AGAIN Jesus addressed them in figures. He said,

riversident@Matthew:22:17 @ Tell us therefore what you think. Is it right to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

riversident@Matthew:22:18 @ But Jesus knew their wickedness and said,

riversident@Matthew:22:25 @ Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died childless and left his wife to his brother.

riversident@Matthew:22:29 @ Jesus replied to them,

riversident@Matthew:22:37 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:22:41 @ While the Pharisees were assembled, Jesus asked them a question,

riversident@Matthew:23:1 @ THEN Jesus addressed the crowd and his disciples.

riversident@Matthew:24:1 @ JESUS left the Temple courts and was going away when his disciples came to point out to him the Temple buildings.

riversident@Matthew:24:3 @ While he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately and said, "Tell us when these things will be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the world?"

riversident@Matthew:24:4 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@Matthew:26:1 @ WHEN Jesus had finished all these discourses, he said to his disciples,

riversident@Matthew:26:3 @ Then the high priests and the elders of the people assembled at the house of the High Priest, who was called Caiaphas,

riversident@Matthew:26:4 @ and they plotted to seize Jesus by some trick and kill him.

riversident@Matthew:26:6 @ When Jesus had come to Bethany and was in the house of Simon the leper,

riversident@Matthew:26:10 @ But Jesus observed it and said,

riversident@Matthew:26:17 @ On the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus and said, "Where do you wish us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?"

riversident@Matthew:26:19 @ The disciples did as Jesus had instructed them and prepared the Passover.

riversident@Matthew:26:25 @ Then Judas the traitor asked, "It is not I, Rabbi?" Jesus replied,

riversident@Matthew:26:26 @ While they were eating, Jesus took a loaf and blessed it and broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying,

riversident@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:26:34 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:26:36 @ Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to the disciples,

riversident@Matthew:26:49 @ Immediately he came up to Jesus and said, "Good evening, Rabbi," and kissed him affectionately.

riversident@Matthew:26:50 @ Jesus said to him, Then they came and laid their hands on Jesus and arrested him.

riversident@Matthew:26:51 @ Suddenly one of those with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the High Priest, cutting off his ear.

riversident@Matthew:26:52 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:26:55 @ Jesus said to the crowd,

riversident@Matthew:26:57 @ The men who had arrested Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the High Priest, at whose house the scribes and elders had assembled.

riversident@Matthew:26:59 @ The high priests and the whole council sought for false testimony against Jesus, so that they might put him to death.

riversident@Matthew:26:63 @ But Jesus kept silence. The High Priest said to him, "I adjure you by the living God to tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God."

riversident@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Matthew:26:65 @ Then the High Priest rent his garments, saying, "Impious words! Why do we any longer need witnesses? See, you have now heard his impious words.

riversident@Matthew:26:68 @ saying, "Act the prophet for us, you Christ! Who was it that struck you? "

riversident@Matthew:26:69 @ Peter was sitting outside in the court. A maid came up to him and said, "You too were with Jesus the Galilaean."

riversident@Matthew:26:71 @ When he had gone out into the gateway, another maid saw him and said to those who were there, "This man was with Jesus the Nazarene."

riversident@Matthew:26:75 @ Peter remembered what Jesus had said, and he went out and wept bitterly.

riversident@Matthew:27:1 @ WHEN morning came all the high priests and the elders of the people consulted together against Jesus to put him to death.

riversident@Matthew:27:3 @ Then Judas, who had betrayed him, when he saw that Jesus had been condemned, was sorry and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the high priests and elders,

riversident@Matthew:27:4 @ saying, "I sinned in betraying innocent blood!" But they said, "What is that to us? You must see to that."

riversident@Matthew:27:11 @ Jesus stood before the Governor. The Governor asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus said,

riversident@Matthew:27:12 @ While he was being accused by the high priests and elders, he answered nothing.

riversident@Matthew:27:14 @ But Jesus did not answer even one word, so that the Governor was much astonished.

riversident@Matthew:27:15 @ At every feast the Governor was accustomed to release for the people one prisoner, whomever they chose.

riversident@Matthew:27:16 @ There was at that time a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

riversident@Matthew:27:17 @ So, when they had gathered, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release for you, Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?"

riversident@Matthew:27:18 @ For he knew that out of jealousy they had handed him over.

riversident@Matthew:27:19 @ While he was sitting on the judge's seat, his wife sent to him a message, "Do not have anything to do with that righteous man. For I have suffered much to-day in a dream because of him."

riversident@Matthew:27:20 @ The high priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:27:22 @ Pilate said to them, "What, then, shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?" They all said, "Have him crucified."

riversident@Matthew:27:23 @ He said, "Why, what wrong has he done?" But they kept shouting furiously, "Have him crucified!"

riversident@Matthew:27:25 @ All the people answered, "His blood be on us and on our children!"

riversident@Matthew:27:26 @ Then he released Barabbas for them, but scourged Jesus and handed him over to be crucified.

riversident@Matthew:27:27 @ Then the soldiers of the Governor took Jesus with them into the castle and gathered about him all the battalion.

riversident@Matthew:27:32 @ As they were going out, they chanced upon a man from Cyrene by the name of Simon. This man they impressed to carry the cross of Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusted in God, let him deliver him now if he wants him, for he said, 'I am the Son of God.' "

riversident@Matthew:27:46 @ About three o'clock Jesus cried out with a loud voice, that is,

riversident@Matthew:27:49 @ The rest said, "Let him alone, let us see whether Elijah comes to save him."

riversident@Matthew:27:50 @ But Jesus, after calling out again with a loud voice, gave up his spirit.

riversident@Matthew:27:54 @ The Centurion and his men who were guarding Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that happened, were greatly terrified and said, "Truly this man was a son of God!"

riversident@Matthew:27:55 @ Looking on from a distance, were many women who had followed Jesus from Galilee, waiting upon him.

riversident@Matthew:27:57 @ In the late afternoon there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:27:58 @ This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered it to be given to him.

riversident@Matthew:28:5 @ The angel said to the women, "Do not you be afraid. For I know that you are looking for Jesus who was crucified.

riversident@Matthew:28:9 @ Suddenly Jesus met them and said, They came up and clasped his feet and bowed down before him.

riversident@Matthew:28:10 @ Then Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:28:16 @ The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had appointed to meet them,

riversident@Matthew:28:18 @ Jesus came to them and talked with them. He said,

riversident@Mark:1:1 @ THE Beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ.

riversident@Mark:1:4 @ just so John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching the baptism of a change of heart for forgiveness of sins.

riversident@Mark:1:5 @ All the land of Judaea and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him and were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.

riversident@Mark:1:6 @ John's clothes were of camel's hair and he had a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.

riversident@Mark:1:9 @ In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

riversident@Mark:1:14 @ After John had been betrayed, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God

riversident@Mark:1:17 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Mark:1:24 @ "What have you to do with us, Nazarene Jesus? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are \'97 the Holy one of God."

riversident@Mark:1:25 @ But Jesus reproved him and said,

riversident@Mark:1:27 @ They were all amazed so that they discussed together, "What is this? A new powerful teaching! He commands even the impure spirits and they obey him!"

riversident@Mark:1:29 @ As soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

riversident@Mark:1:34 @ He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons, not allowing the demons to talk, because they knew him.

riversident@Mark:1:43 @ Then Jesus sent him away after strictly charging him,

riversident@Mark:1:45 @ But the man went away and began to proclaim freely and to spread the report, so that Jesus was no longer able to enter openly into any city, but stayed out in the wild country, and people came to him from every direction.

riversident@Mark:2:1 @ HE came again into Capernaum, and after some days it was heard that he was in the house.

riversident@Mark:2:5 @ When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic,

riversident@Mark:2:8 @ Immediately Jesus, perceiving that they were inwardly reasoning in this way, said to them,

riversident@Mark:2:13 @ Jesus went out again beside the lake, and all the crowd came to him and he taught them.

riversident@Mark:2:14 @ As he was passing along, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting at the tax office and said to him, He arose and followed.

riversident@Mark:2:15 @ Jesus was reclining at table in Levi's house, and many tax collectors and sinners also reclined at table along with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many who followed him.

riversident@Mark:2:17 @ When Jesus heard it, he said to them,

riversident@Mark:2:18 @ The disciples of John as well as the Pharisees were fasting. They came and said to Jesus, "Why is it that the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees are fasting, but your disciples are not fasting?"

riversident@Mark:2:19 @ Jesus replied,

riversident@Mark:3:7 @ Then Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake and a great number from Galilee followed him. Also from Judaea

riversident@Mark:3:8 @ and from Jerusalem and from Idumaea and from beyond the Jordan and from the neighborhood of Tyre and Sidon, a great number, hearing of all that he was doing, came to him.

riversident@Mark:3:9 @ Jesus spoke to his disciples to have a little boat ready for his use on account of the throng, to prevent them from pressing upon him.

riversident@Mark:3:13 @ Jesus went up on the mountain and invited whom he chose, and they came to him.

riversident@Mark:3:18 @ Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddeus, Simon the Zealot,

riversident@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. Jesus came into a house

riversident@Mark:3:22 @ The scribes who had come down from Jerusalem were saying, "He has Beelzebul in him, and by the Chief of the demons he casts out demons."

riversident@Mark:3:23 @ Jesus called them to him and said to them in figures:

riversident@Mark:3:30 @ This he said because they said, "He has an impure spirit."

riversident@Mark:4:1 @ AGAIN Jesus began to teach beside the lake, and a very great crowd gathered around him, so that he got into a boat on the lake and sat down, and all the crowd was on the shore near the lake.

riversident@Mark:4:10 @ When he was alone, his close friends and the twelve asked him about the illustrations.

riversident@Mark:4:33 @ With many such illustrations he went on talking to them as they were able to listen;

riversident@Mark:4:36 @ So they left the crowd and took him along just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with them.

riversident@Mark:4:38 @ But he was in the stern asleep on the cushion. They aroused him and said to him, "Teacher, do you not care that we are sinking?"

riversident@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart and the fetters broken in pieces by him, and no one was strong enough to tame him.

riversident@Mark:5:6 @ When he saw Jesus a long way off, he ran and knelt to him

riversident@Mark:5:7 @ and shouted with a loud voice, "What have I and you to do with each other, Jesus, Son of God most high? I adjure you by God, not to torment me."

riversident@Mark:5:8 @ For Jesus had said to him,

riversident@Mark:5:9 @ Jesus asked him, He replied, "Legion is my name, for we are many."

riversident@Mark:5:10 @ Then he begged Jesus earnestly not to send them out of the country.

riversident@Mark:5:12 @ and the demons begged him, "Send us to the swine and let us go into them."

riversident@Mark:5:13 @ He consented. The impure spirits came out of the man and entered into the swine. Then the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned in the lake.

riversident@Mark:5:15 @ When they came to Jesus, they saw the demoniac, the man who had had the legion, sitting there clothed and in his right mind. They were struck with awe.

riversident@Mark:5:18 @ As Jesus was entering the boat, the man who had been demoniac begged him to let him stay with him.

riversident@Mark:5:20 @ So he went away and began to make known in Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him; and all were astonished.

riversident@Mark:5:21 @ When Jesus had recrossed in the boat to the other side of the lake, a great crowd gathered around him as he stood on the shore.

riversident@Mark:5:22 @ Then came one of the directors of the synagogue, by the name of Jairus, and as soon as he saw Jesus he fell at his feet

riversident@Mark:5:24 @ Jesus went away with him and a great crowd followed and pressed upon him.

riversident@Mark:5:27 @ this woman had heard about Jesus, and she came in the crowd behind him and touched his cloak,

riversident@Mark:5:30 @ Jesus was at once conscious that power had gone from him, and turned in the crowd and said,

riversident@Mark:5:35 @ While he was still speaking, people came from the house of the synagogue Director and told him, "Your daughter is dead; why annoy the teacher any longer?"

riversident@Mark:5:36 @ But Jesus, overhearing what they were saying, said to the Director,

riversident@Mark:5:38 @ When they approached the Director's house, they saw a noisy crowd weeping loudly and wailing.

riversident@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joseph and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?" So they fell into mistake regarding him.

riversident@Mark:6:4 @ But Jesus said to them,

riversident@Mark:6:8 @ and instructed them not to take anything for their journey but just a stick; no bread, no bag, no coppers in their belts,

riversident@Mark:6:14 @ The name of Jesus was so much talked about that King Herod heard of it. Some were saying, "John the Baptizer has risen from the dead, and therefore these mighty works are done by him."

riversident@Mark:6:20 @ because Herod reverenced John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he protected him. When Herod heard John, he was much perplexed, and yet he was glad to listen to him.

riversident@Mark:6:26 @ This made the King very sorry, but on account of his oaths and his guests he was unwilling to refuse her.

riversident@Mark:6:30 @ The apostles gathered back to Jesus and reported to him all that they had done and all that they had taught.

riversident@Mark:6:34 @ When Jesus landed, he saw a great crowd, and he was filled with compassion for them because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began and taught them many things.

riversident@Mark:6:37 @ But Jesus answered, They said, "Shall we go and buy two hundred shillings worth of bread and feed them?"

riversident@Mark:6:44 @ There were five thousand men who ate of the loaves.

riversident@Mark:6:45 @ Jesus immediately had his disciples get into the boat and cross before him to Bethsaida while he was dismissing the crowd.

riversident@Mark:6:52 @ for they had not grasped the miracle of the loaves because their minds were dull.

riversident@Mark:6:54 @ As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

riversident@Mark:7:1 @ ONCE the Pharisees gathered about him with some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem,

riversident@Mark:7:4 @ and when they return from market they do not eat until they have washed. There are also many other traditions which they have been taught to hold tenaciously, such as washing cups and pitchers and copper vessels.

riversident@Mark:7:17 @ After he had gone into the house, his disciples asked about his figurative language.

riversident@Mark:7:19 @ Thus he pronounced all foods clean.

riversident@Mark:7:24 @ Leaving that place, Jesus went into the borders of Tyre. He entered a house and did not wish any one to know it, but he could not escape notice.

riversident@Mark:7:30 @ She returned to her house and found the child lying on the bed and the demon gone.

riversident@Mark:7:36 @ Jesus gave them strict orders not to tell any one. But the more he forbade them the more widely they spread it,

riversident@Mark:8:1 @ IN those days, when there was again a large crowd and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called together his disciples and said to them,

riversident@Mark:8:9 @ There were about four thousand men. Then he dismissed them.

riversident@Mark:8:15 @ Jesus warned them,

riversident@Mark:8:25 @ Again Jesus put his hand on his eyes, and he looked and was restored and saw everything clearly.

riversident@Mark:8:26 @ Then Jesus sent him away home, saying,

riversident@Mark:8:27 @ Jesus went away with his disciples to the villages round Caesarea Philippi. On the road he asked them,

riversident@Mark:9:2 @ Six days later, Jesus took Peter and James and John and led them up a high mountain. They were all alone. There in their presence he became transfigured.

riversident@Mark:9:4 @ Then Moses and Elijah appeared to them and conversed with Jesus.

riversident@Mark:9:5 @ Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is fine for us to be here. Let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

riversident@Mark:9:8 @ Then suddenly as they looked around they no longer saw any one, but Jesus only, with themselves.

riversident@Mark:9:11 @ They asked him, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

riversident@Mark:9:19 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@Mark:9:20 @ They brought him to him. As soon as the spirit saw Jesus, he convulsed the boy so that he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

riversident@Mark:9:21 @ Jesus asked the father, He said, "From early childhood.

riversident@Mark:9:22 @ Often it has thrown him into the fire or into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have pity on us and help us."

riversident@Mark:9:23 @ Jesus said,

riversident@Mark:9:25 @ Jesus saw that the crowd was rapidly increasing, so he rebuked the impure spirit with the words,

riversident@Mark:9:27 @ But Jesus took him by the hand and raised him and he stood up.

riversident@Mark:9:28 @ After he had gone into the house, his disciples asked him privately, "Why were we not able to cast it out?"

riversident@Mark:9:33 @ They came to Capernaum. After entering the house, Jesus asked them,

riversident@Mark:9:38 @ John said to him, "Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name \'97 a man who does not follow us \'97 and we told him not to do it, because he does not follow us."

riversident@Mark:9:39 @ Jesus said,

riversident@Mark:10:1 @ STARTING from there, he came into the land of Judaea and beyond the Jordan. Again the people crowded to him, and again as usual he was teaching them.

riversident@Mark:10:4 @ They said, "Moses permitted a husband to give a certificate of divorce and send his wife away."

riversident@Mark:10:5 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Mark:10:10 @ When they were in the house, his disciples asked him again about this.

riversident@Mark:10:14 @ When Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said,

riversident@Mark:10:18 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Mark:10:21 @ Jesus looking at him loved him and said to him,

riversident@Mark:10:23 @ Then Jesus, looking around on his disciples, said,

riversident@Mark:10:24 @ The disciples were astonished at his words. Jesus spoke again and said,

riversident@Mark:10:27 @ Jesus looked at them and said,

riversident@Mark:10:29 @ Jesus said,

riversident@Mark:10:32 @ They were on the road going up to Jerusalem and Jesus was walking in advance. Astonishment fell on them, and those who were following were fearful. Then again he took aside the twelve and began and told them what was going to happen to him.

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

riversident@Mark:10:37 @ They said, "Grant that one of us may sit on your right hand and the other on your left hand in your glory."

riversident@Mark:10:38 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Mark:10:39 @ They said to him, "We can." Jesus said,

riversident@Mark:10:42 @ Jesus called them to him and said,

riversident@Mark:10:46 @ They came to Jericho. As Jesus was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus (note:)the son of Timaeus(:note), a blind beggar, was sitting by the roadside.

riversident@Mark:10:47 @ When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, "Son of David, Jesus, pity me!"

riversident@Mark:10:49 @ Jesus stopped and said, They called the blind man, saying, "Courage; rise up; he is calling you."

riversident@Mark:10:50 @ He, throwing aside his cloak, sprang up and came to Jesus.

riversident@Mark:10:51 @ Jesus said to him, The blind man said, "Rabboni, I want to regain my sight."

riversident@Mark:10:52 @ Jesus said, At once he could see and followed Jesus along the road.

riversident@Mark:11:1 @ WHEN they were approaching Jerusalem, near Bethphage and Bethany, on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples

riversident@Mark:11:6 @ They gave the reply that Jesus had told them to give, and the men let them take it.

riversident@Mark:11:7 @ They brought the colt to Jesus and threw upon it their cloaks and he mounted it.

riversident@Mark:11:11 @ He entered Jerusalem and came into the Temple courts. After inspecting everything, because it was already late he went out to Bethany with the twelve.

riversident@Mark:11:15 @ They came to Jerusalem, and he went into the Temple courts and began to cast out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of the dove-sellers,

riversident@Mark:11:18 @ When the high priests and the scribes heard of this they tried to contrive to put him out of the way, for they were afraid of him because the people were deeply impressed by his teaching.

riversident@Mark:11:19 @ When evening came, Jesus and his disciples used to go out of the city.

riversident@Mark:11:22 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@Mark:11:27 @ They came again to Jerusalem, and as he was walking about in the Temple courts, the high priests and the scribes came to him

riversident@Mark:11:29 @ Jesus replied,

riversident@Mark:11:31 @ But they discussed among themselves, "If we say 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Then why did you not believe him?'

riversident@Mark:11:33 @ So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And he replied,

riversident@Mark:12:12 @ They kept trying to seize him, but were afraid of the crowd. For they knew that he had meant the illustration for them. So they left him and went away.

riversident@Mark:12:17 @ Jesus said to them, They were astonished at him.

riversident@Mark:12:19 @ "Teacher, Moses wrote a law for us that if any man's brother dies and leaves a wife, but no child, the brother shall take the wife and raise up off-spring for his brother.

riversident@Mark:12:24 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Mark:12:28 @ Then came one of the scribes, and, after listening to their discussion and knowing that he had answered them well, asked, "Which is the first commandment of all?"

riversident@Mark:12:29 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@Mark:12:34 @ Jesus, seeing that he had answered with intelligence, said to him, After that no one dared question him further.

riversident@Mark:12:35 @ Then Jesus asked, while teaching in the Temple courts,

riversident@Mark:12:43 @ Then Jesus called his disciples to him and said to them,

riversident@Mark:13:2 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Mark:13:4 @ "Tell us when these things will be, and what will be the sign when all these things are about to come to pass?"

riversident@Mark:13:5 @ Jesus began and said to them:

riversident@Mark:14:3 @ During his stay in Bethany in the house of Simon the Leper, while he was reclining at table there came a woman with an alabaster jar of pure nard perfume, very costly. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.

riversident@Mark:14:6 @ But Jesus said,

riversident@Mark:14:12 @ On the first day of unleavened bread \'97 when they sacrificed the Passover lamb \'97 his disciples said to him, "Where do you wish us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?"

riversident@Mark:14:17 @ In the evening Jesus came with the twelve.

riversident@Mark:14:27 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Mark:14:30 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Mark:14:31 @ But he kept saying more earnestly, "Though I have to die with you, I will not disown you." Just so they all said.

riversident@Mark:14:45 @ So when he came, he immediately advanced to Jesus and said, "Rabbi," and kissed him affectionately.

riversident@Mark:14:48 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Mark:14:53 @ They led Jesus away to the High Priest, and all the high priests and elders and scribes assembled.

riversident@Mark:14:55 @ The high priests and all the council tried to get testimony against Jesus in order to put him to death, but they could not find any.

riversident@Mark:14:60 @ Then the High Priest rose and came forward into the midst and questioned Jesus, "Have you no answer? What about this evidence against you?"

riversident@Mark:14:62 @ Jesus said,

riversident@Mark:14:64 @ You have heard his impious words. How does it appear to you?" They all condemned him as deserving of death.

riversident@Mark:14:67 @ and when she saw Peter warming himself she looked at him and said, "You too were with the Nazarene, this Jesus."

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

riversident@Mark:15:1 @ PROMPTLY at dawn the high priests, after holding a consultation with the elders and the scribes and the whole council, bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate.

riversident@Mark:15:5 @ But Jesus no longer answered anything, so that Pilate wondered.

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

riversident@Mark:16:14 @ Later he appeared to the eleven as they were reclining at table, and reproached them for their lack of faith and dullness of mind because they had not believed those who had seen him since his resurrection.

riversident@Luke:5:31 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@Luke:5:34 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Luke:5:36 @ He gave them also some illustrations.

riversident@Luke:6:3 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@Luke:6:7 @ The scribes and Pharisees watched to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, wishing to find something to accuse him of.

riversident@Luke:6:9 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Luke:6:11 @ But they were filled with blind fury, and discussed with one another what they could do to Jesus.

riversident@Luke:6:15 @ and Matthew and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called the Zealot,

riversident@Luke:6:17 @ He went down with them and stood on a level spot where were gathered a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judaea and Jerusalem and the sea-coast of Tyre and Sidon, who had come to hear him and to be cured of their diseases.

riversident@Luke:6:19 @ The whole crowd tried to touch him, because power went out from him and healed all.

riversident@Luke:6:39 @ He gave them an illustration:

riversident@Luke:7:3 @ who hearing about Jesus sent to him some elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.

riversident@Luke:7:4 @ When they came to Jesus they begged him earnestly, saying, "He deserves to have this done,

riversident@Luke:7:5 @ for he loves our nation and he built us our synagogue."

riversident@Luke:7:6 @ Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the Centurion sent friends to say to him, "Do not trouble yourself, Sir, for I am not fit to have you come under my roof.

riversident@Luke:7:9 @ When Jesus heard this, he wondered, and, turning to the crowd that was following him, he said,

riversident@Luke:7:10 @ Those who had been sent returned to the house and found the servant well.

riversident@Luke:7:16 @ All were awe-struck, and they gave praise to God, saying, "A great prophet has arisen among us and God has visited his people."

riversident@Luke:7:20 @ When they came to him, the men said, "John the Baptist sent us to you to ask, Are you 'the Coming One' or are we to expect some other person?"

riversident@Luke:7:24 @ After John's messengers had left, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John:

riversident@Luke:7:36 @ One of the Pharisees kept asking him to dine with him. Entering the house of this Pharisee, he reclined at the table.

riversident@Luke:7:37 @ Now there was a certain woman in the city, a sinner, and when she learned that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment

riversident@Luke:7:40 @ Jesus, answering his thought, said to him, "Teacher," he said, "say it."

riversident@Luke:8:3 @ and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod's manager, and Susanna, and many others. These women provided for Jesus and his apostles out of their means.

riversident@Luke:8:4 @ When a great multitude was coming together and some from every city were crowding upon him, he spoke to them with an illustration:

riversident@Luke:8:9 @ His disciples kept asking him what the illustration meant.

riversident@Luke:8:27 @ When he got out on to the land, there met him a certain man from that city who had demons. For a long time he had not worn clothes and had not lived in a house, but in the tombs.

riversident@Luke:8:28 @ When he saw Jesus, he screamed and fell down before him, and in a loud voice said, "What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I pray you, do not torment me."

riversident@Luke:8:30 @ Jesus asked him, He said, "Legion," for many demons had entered into him.

riversident@Luke:8:33 @ The demons left the man and entered the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.

riversident@Luke:8:35 @ The people came out to see what had happened. When they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind, and they were struck with awe.

riversident@Luke:8:39 @ He went through the whole city proclaiming how much Jesus had done for him.

riversident@Luke:8:40 @ As Jesus came back, a crowd welcomed him, for all were expecting him.

riversident@Luke:8:41 @ There came a man by the name of Jairus \'97 he was a synagogue director. Falling at the feet of Jesus, he begged him to come to his house

riversident@Luke:8:42 @ because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. As he was going the crowds pressed around him.

riversident@Luke:8:45 @ Jesus said, All denied, and Peter said, "Master, the crowd is pressing upon you on every side."

riversident@Luke:8:46 @ Jesus said,

riversident@Luke:8:49 @ While he was still speaking some one came from the Director's house, saying, "Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the teacher any longer."

riversident@Luke:8:50 @ Jesus heard it and said to him,

riversident@Luke:8:51 @ When he came to the house, he did not permit any one to enter with him except Peter and John and James and the father of the child and her mother.

riversident@Luke:9:1 @ JESUS called together the twelve and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases.

riversident@Luke:9:7 @ Herod the Prince heard of all that was going on, and he was at a loss because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

riversident@Luke:9:10 @ The apostles returned and told Jesus all that they had done. Taking them with him, he went away privately to a city called Bethsaida.

riversident@Luke:9:14 @ There were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples,

riversident@Luke:9:22 @ telling them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and high priests and be killed, and on the third day be raised.

riversident@Luke:9:28 @ About eight days after this conversation, Jesus took with him Peter and John and James and went up the mountain to pray.

riversident@Luke:9:31 @ who appeared in glory and spoke of his passing which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

riversident@Luke:9:33 @ As they were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is fine for us to be here. Let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah," not knowing what he was saying.

riversident@Luke:9:36 @ When the voice came, Jesus was there alone. They kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.

riversident@Luke:9:41 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@Luke:9:42 @ Even while he was coming, the demon dashed him down and convulsed him. Jesus rebuked the impure spirit and healed the boy and gave him back to his father.

riversident@Luke:9:47 @ Jesus knew the question that was in their minds, and he took a little child and stood him beside himself.

riversident@Luke:9:49 @ John answered, "Master, we saw one casting out demons in your name and we tried to stop him because he is not following along with us."

riversident@Luke:9:50 @ But Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:9:51 @ As the days before his being taken up to heaven were passing, he set his face to go to Jerusalem

riversident@Luke:9:53 @ The Samaritans did not receive him because his face was toward Jerusalem.

riversident@Luke:9:54 @ On seeing this, his disciples James and John said, "Sir, do you want us to bid fire to come down from heaven and consume them?"

riversident@Luke:9:58 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:9:60 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:9:62 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:10:17 @ The seventy returned with joy saying, "Master, even the demons are subject to us in your name."

riversident@Luke:10:25 @ Then a certain lawyer stood up to test him, and said, "Teacher, what must I do to inherit life eternal?"

riversident@Luke:10:28 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:10:29 @ But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?"

riversident@Luke:10:30 @ Jesus rejoined,

riversident@Luke:10:37 @ He said, "He who did kindness to him." Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:10:38 @ As they journeyed, he entered a certain village. There a woman named Martha welcomed him to her house.

riversident@Luke:10:40 @ But Martha was busy and worried over a great deal of service. Coming to him she said, "Master, do you not care that my sister has left me to do the work alone? Tell her to take hold with me."

riversident@Luke:11:1 @ ONCE he was in a certain place praying. When he ceased, one of his disciples said to him, "Master, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples."

riversident@Luke:11:45 @ One of the lawyers answered him, "Teacher, in saying this you treat us roughly too."

riversident@Luke:12:16 @ He gave them an illustration, saying,

riversident@Luke:12:41 @ Peter said, "Master, do you intend this illustration for us or for all?"

riversident@Luke:13:6 @ He gave this illustration:

riversident@Luke:13:12 @ When Jesus saw her he called to her and said,

riversident@Luke:13:14 @ But the synagogue Director, angry because Jesus was healing on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days in which work should be done. On those days come and be healed, but not on the Sabbath day."

riversident@Luke:13:17 @ As he said this, all his opposers were ashamed, and all the crowd rejoiced at all the glorious things that he did.

riversident@Luke:13:22 @ He was journeying through the cities and villages teaching and making his way toward Jerusalem.

riversident@Luke:14:1 @ ONCE, when he went into the house of one of the leaders of the Pharisees on the Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him closely.

riversident@Luke:14:3 @ Jesus said to the lawyers and Pharisees,

riversident@Luke:14:7 @ Observing how the guests were choosing the best couches, he gave them an illustration:

riversident@Luke:14:16 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:15:3 @ He gave them this illustration:

riversident@Luke:17:11 @ It happened that on his journey toward Jerusalem he was going through Samaria and Galilee.

riversident@Luke:17:12 @ As he was approaching a certain village, ten leprous men met him. They stood at a distance,

riversident@Luke:17:13 @ and, raising their voices, called, "Jesus, Master, have compassion on us."

riversident@Luke:17:14 @ When Jesus saw them, he said, While they were going, they became clean.

riversident@Luke:17:16 @ and he fell on his face at the feet of Jesus, thanking him. He was a Samaritan.

riversident@Luke:17:17 @ Jesus said,

riversident@Luke:17:20 @ On being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, Jesus answered them,

riversident@Luke:18:1 @ HE gave them an illustration that they ought always to pray and not to lose courage.

riversident@Luke:18:9 @ He gave also this illustration to some who trusted in themselves as being righteous and despised others:

riversident@Luke:18:16 @ But Jesus called the children to him, saying,

riversident@Luke:18:19 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:18:22 @ On hearing that, Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:18:24 @ Jesus looked at him and said,

riversident@Luke:18:37 @ They told him, "Jesus, the Nazarene, is passing by."

riversident@Luke:18:38 @ Then he shouted, "Jesus, son of David, have pity on me!"

riversident@Luke:18:40 @ Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be led to him. When he had come up, Jesus asked him,

riversident@Luke:18:42 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:19:2 @ In the city there was a man called Zacchaeus, who was chief of the tax collectors and was rich.

riversident@Luke:19:3 @ He was trying to see Jesus \'97 what he was like; but he could not on account of the crowd, for he was short in stature.

riversident@Luke:19:5 @ When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him,

riversident@Luke:19:7 @ All who saw it grumbled, saying that Jesus was going in to stay with a sinner.

riversident@Luke:19:8 @ Zacchaeus stood and said to the Master, "See, the half of my property, Sir, I give to the poor, and if I have unjustly taken anything from any one, I will give him back four-fold."

riversident@Luke:19:9 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:19:11 @ While they were listening to this, he added an illustration, because he was near to Jerusalem and they were thinking that the kingdom of heaven was going to appear immediately.

riversident@Luke:19:28 @ When he had said these things, he journeyed onward, going up toward Jerusalem.

riversident@Luke:19:32 @ Those who were sent went and found everything just as he had said to them.

riversident@Luke:19:35 @ They led it to Jesus and threw their cloaks on the colt and mounted Jesus on it.

riversident@Luke:20:2 @ and said to him, "Tell us by what authority you are doing these things or who it is that gave you this authority."

riversident@Luke:20:6 @ and if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."

riversident@Luke:20:8 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Luke:20:9 @ He began and gave the people this illustration:

riversident@Luke:20:19 @ The scribes and the high priests were eager to lay hands on him at that very time, for they knew that he had aimed the illustration at them; but they were afraid of the people.

riversident@Luke:20:20 @ So watching insidiously for an opportunity they sent spies, who pretended to be honest men, to seize upon anything he might say, so as to hand him over to the authorities and to the power of the Governor.

riversident@Luke:20:22 @ Is it right for us to give tribute to Caesar or not?"

riversident@Luke:20:28 @ "Teacher, Moses wrote for us, 'If any one's married brother dies childless, that man must marry his brother's widow and raise up offspring for his brother.'

riversident@Luke:20:34 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Luke:21:29 @ He gave them an illustration:

riversident@Luke:22:2 @ The high priests and the scribes were intent upon finding some way to destroy Jesus; for they were afraid of the people.

riversident@Luke:22:7 @ The day of unleavened bread came, when the Passover lamb must be sacrificed,

riversident@Luke:22:8 @ and Jesus sent Peter and John, telling them,

riversident@Luke:22:9 @ They said to him, "Where do you wish us to make ready?"

riversident@Luke:22:13 @ They went away and found everything just as he had said, and they prepared the Passover.

riversident@Luke:22:34 @ Jesus said,

riversident@Luke:22:39 @ He went out and made his way, according to his custom, to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him.

riversident@Luke:22:47 @ While he was still speaking there came a crowd, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came up to Jesus to kiss him.

riversident@Luke:22:48 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:22:49 @ Those about Jesus, seeing what was going to happen, said, "Master, shall we strike with the sword?"

riversident@Luke:22:51 @ But Jesus said, and he touched his ear and healed it.

riversident@Luke:22:52 @ Jesus said to the high priests and officers of the Temple and elders who had come out against him,

riversident@Luke:22:54 @ After arresting him they led him away and brought him into the house of the High Priest. Peter followed at a distance.

riversident@Luke:22:63 @ The men who had arrested Jesus made sport of him, beating him,

riversident@Luke:22:67 @ "If you are the Christ, tell us." He said to them,

riversident@Luke:23:2 @ They began accusing him, saying, "We have found this man corrupting our nation and opposing the payment of tribute to Caesar and saying that he himself is Christ a king."

riversident@Luke:23:3 @ Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus answered him,

riversident@Luke:23:7 @ and when he learned that he was of Herod's jurisdiction he sent him to Herod, who was himself also in Jerusalem during those days.

riversident@Luke:23:8 @ Herod on seeing Jesus was much pleased because for a long time he had been anxious to see him on account of hearing about him, and he was hoping to see some miracle done by him.

riversident@Luke:23:9 @ He questioned him with many words; but Jesus gave him no answer.

riversident@Luke:23:10 @ The high priests and the scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

riversident@Luke:23:11 @ Herod along with his soldiers treated him with contempt and after making sport of him and putting a gorgeous robe on him, sent him back to Pilate.

riversident@Luke:23:12 @ So Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that day. Previously they had been at enmity.

riversident@Luke:23:15 @ No more has Herod; for he has sent him back to us. See, nothing deserving of death has been done by him.

riversident@Luke:23:18 @ But the whole crowd cried out together, "Put him out of the way and free Barabbas for us!"

riversident@Luke:23:20 @ Again Pilate spoke to them, wishing to release Jesus.

riversident@Luke:23:25 @ He freed the man who for riot and murder had been thrown into prison \'97 the man they asked for; but Jesus he handed over to their will.

riversident@Luke:23:26 @ As they led him away, they took hold of Simon, a Cyrenian coming from the country, and laid on him the cross to bear behind Jesus.

riversident@Luke:23:28 @ Jesus turned and said to them,

riversident@Luke:23:34 @ Jesus said, They divided his clothes by casting lots.

riversident@Luke:23:39 @ One of the criminals who were crucified insulted him, "Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us."

riversident@Luke:23:41 @ And we are here justly, for we are receiving our due for our deeds. But this man has done nothing wrong."

riversident@Luke:23:42 @ Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."

riversident@Luke:23:43 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@Luke:23:46 @ Then Jesus said in a loud voice, After saying this, he breathed his last.

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

riversident@Luke:23:55 @ The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed along and saw the tomb and how his body was laid,

riversident@Luke:24:3 @ and on entering they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

riversident@Luke:24:7 @ that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and rise on the third day."

riversident@Luke:24:13 @ On that day two of them were going to a village named Emmaus, seven miles distant from Jerusalem,

riversident@Luke:24:15 @ It happened as they talked and discussed that Jesus himself drew near and walked along with them.

riversident@Luke:24:18 @ One of them, named Cleopas, said to him, "Are you a stranger living alone in Jerusalem and do you not know the things that have happened there in recent days?"

riversident@Luke:24:19 @ He said to them, They said to him, "The things about Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet powerful in deed and word before God and all the people \'97

riversident@Luke:24:22 @ Yet some women from our company amazed us. They went at dawn to the tomb

riversident@Luke:24:25 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Luke:24:29 @ But they urged him, saying, "Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the sun is already low." So he went in to stay with them.

riversident@Luke:24:32 @ They said to each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us when he was talking to us on the road and was explaining the Scriptures to us?"

riversident@Luke:24:33 @ Then, rising that very hour, they returned to Jerusalem and found the eleven and their associates assembled

riversident@Luke:24:36 @ While they were talking of these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them and said to them,

riversident@Luke:24:52 @ They bowed down before him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

riversident@John:1:14 @ The Word became flesh and tented among us, and we looked upon his glory, glory as of an only son from a father, full of grace and truth.

riversident@John:1:17 @ For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

riversident@John:1:19 @ This is the testimony of John when the Jews of Jerusalem sent to him priests and Levites to ask him, "Who are you?"

riversident@John:1:22 @ They said then, "Who are you? Let us have an answer to give to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"

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

riversident@John:1:36 @ and, looking at Jesus as he walked, he said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!"

riversident@John:1:37 @ The two disciples heard him say this and they followed Jesus.

riversident@John:1:38 @ Jesus turned and looked at them as they followed, and said to them, They said to him, "Rabbi (note:)which means, when translated, Teacher(:note), where are you staying?"

riversident@John:1:40 @ Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two that heard about Jesus from John and followed him.

riversident@John:1:42 @ He led him to Jesus. Looking at him, Jesus said, (note:)which is in Greek, Peter, that is, Rock(:note).

riversident@John:1:43 @ On the next day Jesus decided to go away to Galilee, and he found Philip and said to him,

riversident@John:1:45 @ Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses wrote in the Law and of whom the prophets wrote \'97 Jesus the son of Joseph, from Nazareth."

riversident@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said,

riversident@John:1:48 @ Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:1:50 @ Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:2:1 @ ON the third day a wedding took place in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

riversident@John:2:2 @ Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, to the wedding.

riversident@John:2:3 @ When the wine ran short, Jesus' mother said to him, "They have no wine."

riversident@John:2:4 @ Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:2:6 @ There were standing there six stone water jars in accordance with the Jewish custom of purification, holding about twenty or thirty gallons apiece.

riversident@John:2:7 @ Jesus said to them, They filled them to the brim.

riversident@John:2:11 @ This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana in Galilee and displayed his glory, and his disciples believed in him.

riversident@John:2:12 @ After this Jesus went down to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brothers and his disciples, and there they stayed a few days.

riversident@John:2:13 @ The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

riversident@John:2:17 @ His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for thy house will devour me."

riversident@John:2:18 @ The Jews said to him, "What sign do you show us, since you act in this way?"

riversident@John:2:19 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:2:22 @ So when he arose from the dead his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.

riversident@John:2:23 @ When he was in Jerusalem at the Feast of the Passover, many believed in his name, seeing his signs that he did,

riversident@John:2:24 @ but Jesus did not trust himself to them because he knew all men

riversident@John:3:1 @ THERE was a man of the Pharisees, Nicodemus by name, a ruler of the Jews.

riversident@John:3:2 @ This man came to Jesus one night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do these signs that you are doing unless God is with him."

riversident@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:3:4 @ Nicodemus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter into his mother's womb a second time and be born?"

riversident@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:3:9 @ Nicodemus answered him, "How can these things be?"

riversident@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:3:22 @ After this Jesus and his disciples came into the land of Judaea and there he spent some time with them and baptized.

riversident@John:3:23 @ John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was abundant water there. People were constantly coming and being baptized.

riversident@John:3:30 @ He must increase, but I must decrease."

riversident@John:4:2 @ though Jesus himself was not baptizing, but his disciples \'97

riversident@John:4:6 @ Jacob's well was there. Jesus, weary from his journey, sat just as he was on the well. It was about noon.

riversident@John:4:7 @ There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered her,

riversident@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank of it, himself and his sons and his flocks?"

riversident@John:4:13 @ Jesus answered her,

riversident@John:4:17 @ The woman answered, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that in Jerusalem is the proper place to worship."

riversident@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:4:25 @ The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah is coming, who is called Christ. When he comes he will tell us all things."

riversident@John:4:26 @ Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:4:34 @ Jesus said to them,

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

riversident@John:4:44 @ For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his native place.

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

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

riversident@John:4:48 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@John:4:50 @ Jesus said to him, The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and went.

riversident@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was at that hour at which Jesus had said to him, and he believed, himself and his whole household.

riversident@John:4:54 @ This is the second time that Jesus did a sign just after coming from Judaea to Galilee.

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

riversident@John:5:2 @ There is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool which is called in Hebrew Bethesda. Around it are five colonnades.

riversident@John:5:6 @ Jesus saw this man lying there and perceiving that he had been there a long time, he said to him,

riversident@John:5:8 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@John:5:13 @ The cured man did not know who it was. For Jesus had taken himself away, a crowd being in that place.

riversident@John:5:14 @ Afterwards Jesus found him in the Temple court and said to him,

riversident@John:5:15 @ The man went away and told the Jews that Jesus was the man who had made him well.

riversident@John:5:16 @ On this account the Jews persecuted Jesus because he did such things on the Sabbath.

riversident@John:5:18 @ On this account the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only kept breaking the Sabbath, but even spoke of God as his own Father, making himself equal with God.

riversident@John:5:19 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:6:1 @ AFTER this Jesus went away beyond the Lake of Galilee (note:)the Lake of Tiberias(:note).

riversident@John:6:2 @ A great crowd was following him because they saw the signs that he was doing upon those who had infirmities.

riversident@John:6:3 @ Jesus had gone up on the mountain and there he was sitting with his disciples.

riversident@John:6:10 @ Jesus said, There was much grass in the place. So the men, about five thousand in number, reclined on the ground.

riversident@John:6:11 @ Jesus took the loaves and gave thanks and divided them to those who were reclining, and in the same way the fishes, as much as they wanted.

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

riversident@John:6:17 @ and got into a boat and started across toward Capernaum. It had already grown dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

riversident@John:6:19 @ When they had rowed three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the lake and getting near the boat, and they were frightened.

riversident@John:6:22 @ On the next day the crowd that was standing on the other side of the lake saw that there had been no boat there but the one, and that Jesus had not got into the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away by themselves

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

riversident@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:6:30 @ They said to him, "What sign are you doing for us to see and believe in you? What are you working?

riversident@John:6:32 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:6:34 @ They said to him, "Sir, always give us this bread."

riversident@John:6:35 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:6:41 @ The Jews were muttering to each other about him because he said,

riversident@John:6:42 @ and they were saying, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he say now,

riversident@John:6:43 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:6:52 @ The Jews disputed angrily with one another, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"

riversident@John:6:53 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:6:61 @ Jesus, knowing in his own mind that his disciples were muttering about this, said to them,

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

riversident@John:6:67 @ Jesus said to the twelve,

riversident@John:6:70 @ Jesus answered them,

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

riversident@John:7:6 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:7:10 @ After his brothers had gone up to the feast, Jesus himself went up, not openly, but somewhat privately.

riversident@John:7:14 @ About the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the Temple courts and began teaching.

riversident@John:7:21 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:7:25 @ Some of the Jerusalem people were saying, "Is not this the man they are trying to kill?

riversident@John:7:28 @ Jesus, while teaching in the Temple courts, cried out loudly,

riversident@John:7:33 @ Jesus said,

riversident@John:7:37 @ On the last day, the great day, of the feast Jesus stood and cried out,

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

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

riversident@John:8:1 @ but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

riversident@John:8:6 @ This they said, testing him, to have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped over and wrote with his finger on the ground.

riversident@John:8:10 @ Jesus raised himself up and said to her,

riversident@John:8:11 @ She said, "No one, Sir." Jesus said, ]

riversident@John:8:12 @ Again Jesus spoke to them, saying,

riversident@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:8:19 @ They said to him, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered,

riversident@John:8:20 @ These words he spoke in the Treasury, while teaching in the Temple courts, and no one arrested him because his hour had not yet come.

riversident@John:8:25 @ They said to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:8:28 @ Jesus said,

riversident@John:8:31 @ Jesus said to the Jews that had believed him,

riversident@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:8:58 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:8:59 @ They took up stones to throw at him; but Jesus concealed himself and left the Temple courts.

riversident@John:9:1 @ AS he was passing by, Jesus saw a man who had been blind from birth.

riversident@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered,

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

riversident@John:9:11 @ He replied, "The man called Jesus made clay and spread it on my eyes and said to me, I went and washed and received my sight."

riversident@John:9:14 @ It was on the Sabbath day that Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

riversident@John:9:16 @ Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God because he does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man, if he is a sinner, do such signs?" So there was a division among them.

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

riversident@John:9:34 @ They answered him, "You were born in sin \'97 wholly; and are you teaching us?" and they cast him out.

riversident@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and found him and said,

riversident@John:9:37 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@John:9:39 @ Jesus said,

riversident@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:10:6 @ This illustration Jesus gave to them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

riversident@John:10:7 @ Again Jesus spoke:

riversident@John:10:22 @ Then came the Feast of Renovation in Jerusalem. It was winter.

riversident@John:10:23 @ Jesus was walking in the Temple courts, in Solomon's Colonnade.

riversident@John:10:24 @ The Jews came in a circle around him and said to him, "How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us frankly."

riversident@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them,

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

riversident@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:11:1 @ THERE was a certain man sick \'97 Lazarus of Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister.

riversident@John:11:2 @ It was that Mary who anointed the Master with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair whose brother Lazarus was sick.

riversident@John:11:3 @ So the sisters sent to Jesus, saying, "Master, he whom you love is sick."

riversident@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard it he said,

riversident@John:11:5 @ Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

riversident@John:11:8 @ The disciples said to him, "Rabbi, just now the Jews were trying to stone you, and are you going there again?"

riversident@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:11:13 @ But Jesus had spoken of his death. They thought that he was speaking of the repose of sleep.

riversident@John:11:14 @ Then Jesus said to them frankly,

riversident@John:11:16 @ Thomas, who is called Didymus (note:)the Twin(:note), said to his fellow disciples, "Let us go too to die with him."

riversident@John:11:17 @ When Jesus came he found that Lazarus had been already four days in the tomb.

riversident@John:11:18 @ Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away,

riversident@John:11:20 @ When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him. Mary was sitting in the house.

riversident@John:11:21 @ Martha said to Jesus, "Master, if you had been here my brother would not have died.

riversident@John:11:23 @ Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:11:30 @ Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him.

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

riversident@John:11:32 @ When Mary came where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying, "Master, if you had been here my brother would not have died."

riversident@John:11:33 @ When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her weeping, he was indignant in spirit and disturbed,

riversident@John:11:35 @ Jesus wept.

riversident@John:11:38 @ Jesus, again indignant, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying on the entrance.

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

riversident@John:11:40 @ Jesus said to her,

riversident@John:11:41 @ So they took away the stone. Jesus lifted up his eyes and said,

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:11:54 @ So Jesus no more walked about openly among the Jews, but went away from there into the country near the wild lands, to a city called Ephraim, and there he stayed with his disciples.

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

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:12:7 @ Jesus said,

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

riversident@John:12:10 @ The high priests planned to kill Lazarus too,

riversident@John:12:11 @ because many of the Jews on account of him went and believed in Jesus.

riversident@John:12:12 @ On the next day the great crowd which had come to the feast, hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

riversident@John:12:14 @ Jesus, finding a young ass, sat on it, as it is written,

riversident@John:12:16 @ These things his disciples did not understand at first, but when Jesus had been glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written of him and had been done to him.

riversident@John:12:17 @ The people that were with him when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead were bearing witness to it.

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

riversident@John:12:21 @ These came to Philip of Bethsaida in Galilee, and asked him, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."

riversident@John:12:22 @ Philip came and told Andrew. Andrew came with Philip and they told Jesus.

riversident@John:12:23 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:12:30 @ Jesus said,

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

riversident@John:12:35 @ Jesus said to them,

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

riversident@John:12:41 @ Isaiah said this because he saw his glory and he spoke of him.

riversident@John:12:42 @ Nevertheless, even of the rulers many did believe in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it, in order not to be expelled from the synagogue;

riversident@John:12:44 @ Jesus cried out,

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

riversident@John:13:3 @ Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands and that he had come from God and was going to God,

riversident@John:13:7 @ Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:13:8 @ Peter said to him, "You shall never wash my feet!" Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:13:10 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@John:13:21 @ After saying these things Jesus was disturbed in spirit and solemnly said to them,

riversident@John:13:23 @ One of his disciples was leaning on Jesus' breast \'97 the one Jesus loved.

riversident@John:13:25 @ He, leaning back on the breast of Jesus, said to him, "Master, who is it?"

riversident@John:13:26 @ Jesus answered, When he had dipped the bread, he took it and gave it to Judas the son of Simon Iscariot.

riversident@John:13:27 @ After the piece of bread Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him,

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

riversident@John:13:31 @ When Judas had gone, Jesus said,

riversident@John:13:36 @ Simon Peter said to him, "Master, where are you going?" Jesus answered,

riversident@John:13:38 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:14:6 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@John:14:8 @ Philip said to him, "Master, show us the Father and we shall be satisfied."

riversident@John:14:9 @ Jesus said,

riversident@John:14:22 @ Judas (note:)not Iscariot(:note) said to him, "Master, what has happened that you are going to show yourself to us and not to the world?"

riversident@John:14:23 @ Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:16:19 @ Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them,

riversident@John:16:29 @ His disciples said, "See, now you are speaking plainly and are using no figures.

riversident@John:16:31 @ Jesus answered them,

riversident@John:17:1 @ THESE words spoke Jesus, and lifted his eyes to heaven and said,

riversident@John:18:1 @ WHEN Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples across the brook Kidron to a place where there was a garden. Into this he entered with his disciples.

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

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

riversident@John:18:5 @ They answered him, "Jesus the Nazarene." He said to them, Judas the traitor was standing with them.

riversident@John:18:7 @ Again he questioned them, They said, "Jesus the Nazarene."

riversident@John:18:8 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:18:10 @ Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck a servant of the High Priest, cutting off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

riversident@John:18:11 @ Jesus said to Peter,

riversident@John:18:12 @ So the battalion and the Tribune and the Jewish policemen arrested Jesus and bound him

riversident@John:18:15 @ Simon Peter was following Jesus and so was another disciple. That disciple was known to the High Priest and he went in with Jesus into the court of the High Priest.

riversident@John:18:19 @ The High Priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.

riversident@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:18:22 @ When he said this, a policeman, who was standing by, gave Jesus a slap, saying, "Do you answer the High Priest that way?"

riversident@John:18:23 @ Jesus answered him,

riversident@John:18:28 @ They led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Castle. It was early morning. The Jews did not enter the Castle, wishing to avoid defilement, so that they might eat the Passover.

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

riversident@John:18:32 @ They said this that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled \'97 the word he had spoken indicating by what death he was to die.

riversident@John:18:33 @ Pilate entered the Castle again and called Jesus and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"

riversident@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:18:37 @ Pilate said to him, "Are you not a king then?" Jesus answered,

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

riversident@John:19:1 @ THEN Pilate took Jesus and scourged him.

riversident@John:19:5 @ Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple cloak. Pilate said to them, "Here is the man!"

riversident@John:19:7 @ The Jews answered, "We have a law and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God."

riversident@John:19:9 @ and went into the Castle and said to Jesus, "Where do you come from?" But Jesus gave him no answer.

riversident@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered,

riversident@John:19:13 @ Pilate, on hearing these words, brought Jesus out and sat down on the judge's seat in the place called the Mosaic Pavement \'97 in Hebrew, Gabbatha.

riversident@John:19:16 @ Then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus

riversident@John:19:18 @ where they crucified him. And with him they crucified two others, one on this side and one on that, and Jesus between them.

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

riversident@John:19:23 @ The soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothes and made four parts, a part to each soldier, and there was his tunic besides. The tunic was seamless, woven from the top entire.

riversident@John:19:24 @ They said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots who shall have it." This was so that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "They parted my garments among them and on my clothing they cast lots." The soldiers did this.

riversident@John:19:25 @ There were standing beside the cross of Jesus his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

riversident@John:19:26 @ When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother,

riversident@John:19:28 @ After this, Jesus knowing that now all things had been completed, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled said,

riversident@John:19:30 @ When Jesus had taken the sour wine, he said, and bowing his head gave up his spirit.

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

riversident@John:19:33 @ But, coming to Jesus, when they saw him already dead, they did not break his legs.

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

riversident@John:19:39 @ Nicodemus, the man who came to him at first by night, came also bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight.

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

riversident@John:19:42 @ There, on account of the Preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was near, they laid Jesus.

riversident@John:20:2 @ She ran and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They have taken away the Master from the tomb and we do not know where they have laid him."

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

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

riversident@John:20:13 @ They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "Because they have carried away my Master and I do not know where they have laid him."

riversident@John:20:14 @ After saying this, she turned and saw Jesus standing, but did not recognize that it was Jesus.

riversident@John:20:15 @ Jesus said to her, She, thinking that he was the gardener, said to him, "Sir, if you have removed him, tell me where you have laid him and I will take him away."

riversident@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rabboni!" (note:)that is, Teacher(:note).

riversident@John:20:17 @ Jesus said to her,

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

riversident@John:20:24 @ Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus (note:)the Twin(:note), was not with them when Jesus came.

riversident@John:20:26 @ After eight days the disciples were again within and Thomas was with them. Jesus came and stood in the midst and said,

riversident@John:20:29 @ Jesus said to him,

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

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

riversident@John:21:1 @ AFTER this, Jesus showed himself again to the disciples at the Lake of Tiberias. He showed himself in this way.

riversident@John:21:2 @ There were together Simon Peter and Thomas, called Didymus (note:)the Twin(:note), and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee and two other disciples.

riversident@John:21:4 @ When day was breaking, Jesus stood on the beach. The disciples, however, did not recognize that it was Jesus.

riversident@John:21:5 @ Jesus said to them, They answered him, "No."

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

riversident@John:21:10 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@John:21:12 @ Jesus said, No one of the disciples dared to ask him who he was, knowing that it was the Master.

riversident@John:21:13 @ Jesus came and took bread and gave to them, and fish in the same manner.

riversident@John:21:14 @ This is now the third time that Jesus showed himself to the disciples after rising from the dead.

riversident@John:21:15 @ When they had breakfasted, Jesus said to Simon Peter, He said to him, "Yes, Master, you know that I love you." He said to him,

riversident@John:21:17 @ He said to him the third time, Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, and he said to him, "Master, you know all things. You know that I love you." Jesus said to him,

riversident@John:21:20 @ Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved, following. (note:)It was he who at the supper had leaned on Jesus' breast and said, "Lord, who is it that will betray you? "(:note)

riversident@John:21:21 @ Peter, seeing him, said to Jesus, "Master, what shall this man do?"

riversident@John:21:22 @ Jesus said to him,

riversident@John:21:23 @ So the report went out among the brethren that that disciple was not to die. But Jesus did not say to Peter that he would not die, but,

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

riversident@Acts:1:1 @ IN my first book, Theophilus, I told of all that Jesus did and taught from the beginning

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

riversident@Acts:1:11 @ and said, "Men of Galilee, why are you standing and looking up into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way that you have seen him go into heaven."

riversident@Acts:1:12 @ They then returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called the Olive Orchard, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey distant.

riversident@Acts:1:13 @ When they came into the city, they went up to the upper room where they were staying. There were Peter and John, and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.

riversident@Acts:1:14 @ All of these continued earnestly and unitedly in prayer with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus and with his brothers.

riversident@Acts:1:16 @ "Brethren, it was necessary that the Scripture should be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit spoke through the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became guide to those who arrested Jesus.

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

riversident@Acts:1:19 @ It became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field was called in their own language Akeldama, that is, the Field of Blood.)

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

riversident@Acts:1:22 @ from the baptism of John down to the day that he was taken up from us \'97 that one of these should become a witness with us of his resurrection."

riversident@Acts:1:23 @ So they put forward two, Joseph who is called Barsabbas, surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

riversident@Acts:2:2 @ when suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of a strong rushing wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

riversident@Acts:2:5 @ There were Jews living in Jerusalem, pious men from every nation under heaven.

riversident@Acts:2:6 @ When this sound was heard, the crowd came together and were astonished because each one heard them speaking in his own language.

riversident@Acts:2:8 @ How then does each of us hear them in his own native language?

riversident@Acts:2:9 @ Parthians and Medes and Elamites and those who live in Mesopotamia, Judas and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

riversident@Acts:2:14 @ But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and declared to them: "Fellow Jews, and all of you who live in Jerusalem, understand this and listen to my words.

riversident@Acts:2:20 @ The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the day of the Lord comes \'97 that great and glorious day.

riversident@Acts:2:22 @ Fellow Israelites, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene was a man proved to be sent to you from God by miracles, wonders, and signs which God did through him in the midst of you, as you yourselves know.

riversident@Acts:2:29 @ "Brethren, allow me to say frankly to you regarding the patriarch David that he died and was buried and his tomb is among us to this day.

riversident@Acts:2:32 @ This Jesus, God raised up, and all of us are witnesses of it.

riversident@Acts:2:36 @ Let all the house of Israel know surely that this Jesus, whom you crucified, God has made both Lord and Christ."

riversident@Acts:2:38 @ Peter said to them, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

riversident@Acts:2:41 @ Those who accepted his message were baptized, and there were added on that day about three thousand souls.

riversident@Acts:2:46 @ Every day, continuing with one accord in the Temple courts and in breaking bread from house to house, they ate together in joy and simplicity of heart,

riversident@Acts:3:2 @ when a man lame from his birth was being carried along. This man used to be placed every day near the gate of the Temple courts \'97 the one called the Beautiful Gate \'97 to beg of those who were entering.

riversident@Acts:3:4 @ But Peter fixing his eyes on him, along with John, said, "Look at us."

riversident@Acts:3:6 @ But Peter said, "Silver and gold I have not; but what I have I will give you. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, walk."

riversident@Acts:9:22 @ But Saul grew stronger and put to confusion the Jews who lived at Damascus, as he proved that this man was the Christ.

riversident@Acts:9:26 @ When Saul reached Jerusalem, he tried to attach himself to the disciples, but all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.

riversident@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and related to them how he had seen the Lord on the road and how the Lord had spoken to him, and how courageously he had spoken in Damascus in the name of Jesus.

riversident@Acts:10:9 @ On the next day, while they were on the road and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray. It was about noon.

riversident@Acts:10:17 @ Peter was thinking this over and was at a loss what the vision meant. Just then the men who had been sent by Cornelius, after inquiring for the house of Simon, came to the door

riversident@Acts:10:22 @ They said, "Cornelius, a centurion, an upright and God-fearing man, well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house, and to listen to your words."

riversident@Acts:11:17 @ If then God gave to them the same gift that he gave to us on believing in the Lord Jesus, who was I that I could oppose God?"

riversident@Acts:11:19 @ Those who were scattered abroad by the persecution that arose in connection with Stephen went as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, telling the message to none but Jews.

riversident@Acts:11:20 @ Some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, and they on reaching Antioch spoke also to the Greeks, telling them the good news of the Lord Jesus.

riversident@Acts:11:22 @ Word came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem regarding these men, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.

riversident@Acts:11:25 @ Barnabas went away to Tarsus to look up Saul,

riversident@Acts:13:51 @ They shook off the dust of their feet as a protest against them, and came to Iconium.

riversident@Acts:14:3 @ Therefore the apostles spent considerable time speaking freely and fearlessly in reliance upon the Lord, who bore witness to his gracious message by permitting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

riversident@Acts:15:2 @ Since no little dissension and controversy arose between Paul and Barnabas and these men, it was arranged that Paul and Barnabas and some others of them should go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.

riversident@Acts:15:3 @ So they were sent on by the church and passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, relating the conversion of the Gentiles, which caused great joy to all the brethren.

riversident@Acts:15:4 @ On their arrival in Jerusalem they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they narrated all that God, working with them, had done.

riversident@Acts:15:5 @ Then some of the party of the Pharisees, who had become believers, rose and said, "We must circumcise them and tell them to keep the Law of Moses."

riversident@Acts:15:39 @ Such a difference of feeling resulted that they separated from each other. Barnabas took Mark and sailed away to Cyprus.

riversident@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wished to have Timothy go with him. So he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts. For they all knew that his father was a Greek.

riversident@Acts:16:4 @ Thus they traveled through the cities and delivered to the disciples for observance the rules that had been decided on by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem.

riversident@Acts:25:18 @ When his accusers arose, they brought no charge of such crimes as I was expecting,

riversident@Acts:25:19 @ but they had some disputes with him about their own religion and concerning a certain Jesus who had died and whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

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

riversident@Romans:4:6 @ Just so David speaks of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works,

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

riversident@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness of faith that he had in uncircumcision, so that he should be the father of all who believe while uncircumcised, and righteousness should be credited to them;

riversident@Romans:4:13 @ It was not through the Law that the promise came to Abraham or to his descendants that he should be the heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith.

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

riversident@Romans:4:20 @ Still he did not hesitate through want of faith in the promise of God, but was strong in faith, thus giving glory to God,

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

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

riversident@Romans:4:25 @ who was delivered up on account of our sins and was raised again that we might be accounted righteous.

riversident@Romans:5:1 @ SO then, since we have been accounted righteous by faith, let us have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ.

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

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

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

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

riversident@Romans:5:9 @ Much more then, now that we have been pronounced righteous through his blood, shall we be saved from wrath by him.

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

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

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

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

riversident@Romans:5:18 @ As then through one fall sentence came upon all men and they were condemned; so through one righteous act the free gift came to all men so that they are pronounced righteous and live.

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

riversident@Romans:5:21 @ in order that as sin reigned in death grace might reign through righteousness and issue in life eternal through Jesus Christ our Lord.

riversident@Romans:6:3 @ Are you ignorant that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

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

riversident@Romans:6:11 @ So you must think yourselves dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus.

riversident@Romans:6:12 @ Do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you will obey its lusts,

riversident@Romans:6:13 @ and do not yield your members to sin as the instruments of wickedness; but present yourselves to God as men once dead, but now living, and yield your members to God as the instruments of righteousness.

riversident@Romans:6:15 @ What then? May we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Never.

riversident@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves as servants intending obedience, you are the servants of the one you obey, whether of sin, resulting in death, or of obedience, resulting in righteousness?

riversident@Romans:6:18 @ You were made free from sin and made servants to righteousness.

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

riversident@Romans:6:20 @ When you were servants of sin you were free from righteousness.

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

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

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

riversident@Romans:7:6 @ But now the Law has been made inoperative on us, since we have died to that by which we were held, so that we serve in newness of the spirit and not in oldness of the letter.

riversident@Romans:7:7 @ What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? Never. But I should not have come to know sin except through the Law. I should not have known lust if the Law had not said, "Thou shalt not lust."

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

riversident@Romans:7:12 @ So the Law is holy and the commandment is holy and just and good.

riversident@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to 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.

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

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

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

riversident@Romans:8:4 @ so that the righteousness required by the Law might be fulfilled in us who live not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.

riversident@Romans:8:10 @ If Christ is in you the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is life because of righteousness.

riversident@Romans:8:11 @ If the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead gives life even to your mortal bodies, through his indwelling Spirit in you.

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

riversident@Romans:8:21 @ because the creation itself will be freed from the slavery of decay into the glorious freedom of the children of God.

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

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

riversident@Romans:8:30 @ And those whom he predetermined he also called, and those whom he called he also pronounced righteous, and those whom he pronounced righteous he also glorified.

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

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

riversident@Romans:8:33 @ Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? God pronounces them righteous.

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

riversident@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from Christ's love? Shall trial or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?

riversident@Romans:8:37 @ On the contrary, in all these we more than conquer through him who loved us.

riversident@Romans:8:39 @ nor height nor depth nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God's love in Christ Jesus our Lord.

riversident@Romans:9:7 @ nor because they are descendants of Abraham are they all children; but "through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

riversident@Romans:9:14 @ What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness on God's part? Never.

riversident@Romans:9:24 @ called us not only from the Jews but also from the Gentiles?

riversident@Romans:9:29 @ Even as Isaiah predicted, "Unless the Lord of armies had left us some descendants, we should have become like Sodom and should have been made to resemble Gomorrah."

riversident@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness obtained righteousness, the righteousness of faith,

riversident@Romans:9:31 @ but Israel pursuing after the Law of righteousness did not attain to the Law.

riversident@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they pursued it not by faith, but as it were by works. They stumbled over that stumbling stone,

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

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

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

riversident@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness of faith says, "Do not say in your heart, 'Who shall ascend into heaven?' that is, to bring Christ down \'97 "

riversident@Romans:10:9 @ that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved.

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

riversident@Romans:10:19 @ I say, it cannot be that Israel did not know, can it? First Moses says, "I will excite you to jealousy by what is not a nation and by a foolish nation I will provoke you to anger."

riversident@Romans:11:4 @ But what was the divine response? "I have left to myself seven thousand men who have not knelt to Baal."

riversident@Romans:11:5 @ So at this present time there is a remnant according to a gracious selection.

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

riversident@Romans:11:11 @ I say, then, have they stumbled just in order that they may fall? Never. But by their fall salvation comes to the Gentiles so as to arouse the emulation of the Jews.

riversident@Romans:11:14 @ if in any way I may arouse to emulation my own kindred and save some of them \'97

riversident@Romans:11:25 @ I would not have you ignorant, brethren, of this mystery, that you may not be self-conceited, because stupidity in a measure has come upon Israel until the full number of Gentiles comes in,

riversident@Romans:11:26 @ and thus all Israel will be saved, as it is written, "From Zion will come the deliverer. He will remove ungodliness from Jacob.

riversident@Romans:12:6 @ Having gifts differing according to the grace given to us, if it is prophecy, let us use it according to the proportion of our faith;

riversident@Romans:12:7 @ if it is service, let us use it in service. Let the teacher use his gift in teaching.

riversident@Romans:12:8 @ Let the exhorter use his gift in exhorting. Let him who gives do it in simplicity. Let him who manages do it earnestly. Let him who helps the needy do it cheerfully.

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

riversident@Romans:13:7 @ Pay to all their dues, tribute to whom tribute is due, custom to whom custom is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.

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

riversident@Romans:13:12 @ The night is far spent, the day draws near. Let us put away the deeds of darkness, let us put on the weapons of light.

riversident@Romans:13:13 @ Let us live becomingly as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in sensuality and licentiousness, not in quarrelling and jealousy.

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

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

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

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

riversident@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is defiling in itself. But to one who thinks anything to be defiling it is defiling.

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

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

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

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

riversident@Romans:14:23 @ He who has doubts and still eats stands condemned, because he is not acting from faith. But whatever does not spring from faith is sin.

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

riversident@Romans:15:5 @ May the God of patience and encouragement grant to you to have harmony with one another, in the manner of Christ Jesus,

riversident@Romans:15:6 @ so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

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

riversident@Romans:15:16 @ that I may be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, in priestly service of the good news of God, in order that the offering of the Gentiles may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

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

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love is longsuffering, love is kind, is not jealous, love does not boast, is not conceited,

riversident@1Corinthians:13:7 @ excuses all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails; but if there are prophetic powers, they will become useless; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will become useless.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:10 @ but when the perfect comes what is in part will become useless.

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

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

riversident@1Corinthians:14:19 @ But in church I would rather speak five words with my understanding so as to instruct others, than to speak ten thousand words in a tongue.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the Law it is written, "By men of strange speech and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people, and not even thus will they listen to me, says the Lord."

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

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

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

riversident@1Corinthians:15:15 @ And we are found false witnesses of God because we testified regarding God that he raised up Christ, whom he did not raise if the dead are not raised.

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

riversident@1Corinthians:15:31 @ I die every day, I swear it by the boast I make of you and which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.

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

riversident@1Corinthians:15:45 @ Just as it is written, "The first man Adam became a living animal," the last Adam became a lifegiving spirit.

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

riversident@1Corinthians:16:8 @ I shall remain in Ephesus until Pentecost,

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

riversident@2Corinthians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

riversident@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of loving kindness and the God of all encouragement,

riversident@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who encourages us in every distress so that we may be able to encourage those who are in every distress by the encouragement by which we ourselves have been encouraged by God.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:5 @ Because as the sufferings of Christ are abundant in our case, so through Christ our encouragement is abundant.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Indeed we have the sentence of death within ourselves, that our trust may not rest on ourselves, but on God who raises the dead.

riversident@2Corinthians:1:10 @ He delivered us from such a death and will deliver, and we have hope in him that he will go on delivering,

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

riversident@2Corinthians:1:14 @ as you have partly acknowledged it about us, that we are your ground of boasting and you are ours on the day of our Lord Jesus.

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:1:21 @ It is God who makes us and you steadfast to Christ, and has anointed us

riversident@2Corinthians:1:22 @ and sealed us and has given the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if any one has caused grief, he has grieved not me, but to some extent \'97 not to be too severe \'97 all of you.

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit because I did not find Titus my brother, but bidding them farewell I came away to Macedonia.

riversident@2Corinthians:2:14 @ Thanks be to God who always leads us in his triumph in Christ and spreads through us the sweet odor of the knowledge of him in every place.

riversident@2Corinthians:3:3 @ evidently a letter of Christ delivered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not on stone tablets, but on tablets that are hearts of flesh.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:3:7 @ If the service that brought death, engraved in letters on stones, came in glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face \'97 that fading glory \'97

riversident@2Corinthians:3:8 @ how much more glorious will not the service of the Spirit be?

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

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:3:13 @ and are not like Moses, who used to put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel might not see when the vanishing glory ended;

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

riversident@2Corinthians:4:4 @ in whom the god of this world has blinded the thinking of the unbelieving so that the light of the glorious good news of Christ, who is the image of God, may not shine in.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:4:6 @ Because it is the God who said, "Light shall shine out of darkness," who has shone in our hearts bringing the light of the glorious knowledge of God in the face of Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always bearing about in our bodies the death of Jesus that the life also of Jesus may be manifest in our bodies.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:4:12 @ So death works in us, but life in you.

riversident@2Corinthians:4:14 @ knowing that he who raised up Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus and place us in his presence with you.

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

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:5:18 @ And all things are from God, who has reconciled us to himself through Christ and given to us the service of reconciliation \'97

riversident@2Corinthians:5:19 @ to proclaim that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting against men their sins, and that he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:6:7 @ with the message of truth, with the power of God; by the weapons of righteousness in the right hand and the left,

riversident@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You find no narrowness in us, the narrowness is in your own sympathies.

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

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:7:6 @ But God, who encourages the depressed, encouraged us by the coming of Titus,

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

riversident@2Corinthians:7:9 @ but I am glad now, not that you were grieved, but that your grief led to a change of heart. You were grieved as God approves so that you should in nothing suffer loss from us.

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:7:13 @ On this account we have been encouraged. In addition to this encouragement of ours, we rejoiced very much more over the joy of Titus because his spirit has been refreshed by you all,

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

riversident@2Corinthians:8:1 @ I MUST tell you, brethren, of the grace of God that has been given to the churches of Macedonia,

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

riversident@2Corinthians:8:5 @ and this not as we had hoped, but first they gave themselves to the Lord and to us through the will of God.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:8:7 @ But as you excel in every way, in faith and speech and knowledge and in all earnestness and in the love you learned from us, be sure to excel in this grace also.

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:8:16 @ Thanks be to God who puts into the heart of Titus the same interest in you.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but he was appointed by the churches as our fellow traveler in this gracious errand carried out by us to the glory of the Lord himself and by our own eager desire.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:8:22 @ We are sending along with them also our brother whose earnestness we have tested many times in many ways, and who is now especially earnest because of his great confidence in you.

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

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

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You will be enriched in everything so that you will have all liberality which through our agency causes thanksgiving to God.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I pray that I may not when present have to be bold with the confidence with which I expect to show my courage against some who think of us as living according to the flesh.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:10:10 @ Because, "His letters," they say, "are mighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak and his speaking amounts to nothing."

riversident@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We will not boast beyond measure, but according to the measure of the measuring rod which God assigned to us, and that reaches as far as you.

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

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

riversident@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Did I commit a sin when I humbled myself that you might be exalted, because I proclaimed to you the good news of God without pay?

riversident@2Corinthians:11:11 @ Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I am doing I shall do so as to cut away all ground of attack from those who wish ground, and that in what they boast of they may be found just like us.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:15 @ So it is no great thing if his servants too disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will be according to their deeds.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:30 @ If there must be boasting, I will boast of the things that show my weakness.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the Governor under King Aretas was guarding the city of the Damascenes to arrest me,

riversident@2Corinthians:12:1 @ I MUST boast, though it is unprofitable. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I begged Titus to go, and I sent along with him the brother. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit and walk in the same steps?

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

riversident@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Test yourselves whether you are in the faith, put yourselves to the proof. Are you not conscious that Jesus Christ is in you? He is, unless you cannot stand the test.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:13:14 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

riversident@Galatians:1:1 @ PAUL an apostle \'97 not from men or through men, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead \'97

riversident@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@Galatians:1:18 @ Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter and stayed with him fifteen days.

riversident@Galatians:1:23 @ Only they had heard that "he who used to persecute us is now telling the good news of the faith of which he once made havoc,"

riversident@Galatians:2:1 @ THEN after fourteen years I again went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking along Titus.

riversident@Galatians:2:3 @ But even Titus, who was with me and was a Greek, was not compelled to be circumcised,

riversident@Galatians:2:4 @ though it was suggested on account of false brethren who had been brought in, who had crept in to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us.

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

riversident@Galatians:2:10 @ Only they wished us to remember the poor. This very thing I also was earnest in doing.

riversident@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he had been justly censured.

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

riversident@Galatians:2:17 @ If while seeking to be declared righteous in Christ we ourselves are found sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Never.

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

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

riversident@Galatians:3:2 @ Only this I wish to learn from you: Was it because of works of law that you received the Spirit, or because of hearing with faith?

riversident@Galatians:3:5 @ He who supplies to you the Spirit and works miracles among you, is he doing it because of works of law or because of hearing with faith,

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

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

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

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

riversident@Galatians:3:14 @ in order that the blessing of Abraham might in Jesus Christ come on the Gentiles, that they might receive through faith the promise of the Spirit.

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

riversident@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has shut up all under sin that the promise based on faith in Jesus Christ may be given to those who have faith.

riversident@Galatians:3:24 @ Thus the Law became our tutor leading us to Christ, that we might be declared righteous by faith.

riversident@Galatians:3:26 @ You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

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

riversident@Galatians:4:6 @ Because you are sons, God has sent into our hearts the Spirit of his Son crying Abba, Father.

riversident@Galatians:4:11 @ You make me afraid that I have labored over you uselessly.

riversident@Galatians:4:13 @ You know that because of weakness of the flesh I told you the good news at first.

riversident@Galatians:4:14 @ And you did not despise or spurn what was a trial to you in my bodily condition, but welcomed me as you would an angel of God, as you would Christ Jesus.

riversident@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

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

riversident@Galatians:4:26 @ But the Jerusalem on high is free and she is our mother.

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

riversident@Galatians:4:29 @ But just as then he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now.

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

riversident@Galatians:5:2 @ See, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no use to you.

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

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

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

riversident@Galatians:5:10 @ I am persuaded in regard to you in the Lord that you will have no other mind. He who is troubling you must bear his condemnation, whoever he may be.

riversident@Galatians:5:19 @ The works of the flesh are obvious, such as unchastity, impurity, indecency,

riversident@Galatians:5:20 @ idolatry, magic, hatred, strife, jealousy, anger, rivalries, dissensions, factions,

riversident@Galatians:5:24 @ Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its emotions and passions.

riversident@Galatians:5:25 @ If we are living in the Spirit let us direct our lives by the Spirit.

riversident@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us not be vainglorious, irritating one another, envying one another.

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

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

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

riversident@Galatians:6:14 @ But let me never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world is crucified to me and I to the world.

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

riversident@Ephesians:3:6 @ namely, that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, fellow sharers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the good news,

riversident@Ephesians:3:11 @ according to the eternal purpose which he has accomplished by Christ Jesus our Lord,

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

riversident@Ephesians:3:21 @ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus through all the generations of the ages! Amen.

riversident@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called with one hope that belongs to your calling,

riversident@Ephesians:4:7 @ To each one of us grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

riversident@Ephesians:4:16 @ from whom the whole body framed together and strengthened by what every joint supplies vigorously, in the measure of each, makes growth in building itself up in love.

riversident@Ephesians:4:28 @ He who steals must steal no longer, but rather he must labor, working with his own hands something good, so as to have something to share with any one in need.

riversident@Ephesians:4:31 @ Let all bitterness and anger and wrath and clamor and abusive language be put away from you with every kind of malice.

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

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

riversident@Ephesians:5:3 @ Unchastity or any kind of impurity or greediness must not be mentioned among you, as befits holy people;

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

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

riversident@Ephesians:5:23 @ because a man is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church and he is the savior of the body.

riversident@Ephesians:5:24 @ But as the church is subject to Christ, so wives are to their husbands in everything.

riversident@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for it,

riversident@Ephesians:5:27 @ that he might present to himself the church glorious, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but holy and faultless.

riversident@Ephesians:5:28 @ Thus ought men to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself,

riversident@Ephesians:5:29 @ for no one ever hates his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church,

riversident@Ephesians:5:33 @ But each one of you must love his own wife as himself, and the wife must reverence her husband.

riversident@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand, then, belted with truth, wearing the breastplate of righteousness,

riversident@Philippians:1:2 @ Grace be to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@Philippians:1:6 @ being confident of this very thing, that he who has begun the good work in you will carry it on to completion on the day of Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:1:7 @ So it is right for me to think of you all, because you have me in your hearts, and in my chains and in my defense and in establishing the good news you are all sharers in my privilege.

riversident@Philippians:1:8 @ For God is my witness how much I long for you all in the affections of Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:1:11 @ filled with the fruit of knowledge through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God.

riversident@Philippians:1:14 @ and the most of the brethren in the Lord, made confident by my chains, are unusually brave in speaking the message fearlessly.

riversident@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed proclaim Christ because of envy and rivalry, some also because of good will.

riversident@Philippians:1:19 @ For I know that this will make for my salvation through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

riversident@Philippians:1:26 @ that your exultation in Christ Jesus may overflow on my account, because of my presence again with you.

riversident@Philippians:1:29 @ because it has been graciously allowed you not only to believe in Christ but also to suffer for his sake,

riversident@Philippians:2:3 @ doing nothing in a partisan or vainglorious way, but each modestly regarding the others as of more account than himself.

riversident@Philippians:2:5 @ Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

riversident@Philippians:2:9 @ Therefore, God has highly exalted him and has graciously given him the name which is above every name,

riversident@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee may bow, of beings in heaven and those on earth and those under the earth,

riversident@Philippians:2:11 @ and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

riversident@Philippians:2:13 @ For it is God who is working in you both the willing and the doing because of his kindness.

riversident@Philippians:2:18 @ In the same way you must rejoice and share my joy.

riversident@Philippians:2:19 @ But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I may be cheered by knowing about you.

riversident@Philippians:2:21 @ For all pursue their own aims, not those of Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:2:24 @ And I trust in the Lord that I myself shall come quickly.

riversident@Philippians:2:25 @ I think it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my needs,

riversident@Philippians:2:26 @ since he longs for you all and is troubled because you have heard that he was sick.

riversident@Philippians:2:30 @ because for the work of Christ he was near to death, hazarding his life to complete the service you were not here to do for me.

riversident@Philippians:3:3 @ For we are the circumcision, we who worship in the Spirit of God and exult in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh,

riversident@Philippians:3:6 @ as to zeal persecuting the church, as to the righteousness of the Law blameless.

riversident@Philippians:3:8 @ Yes, I count all to be loss because of the surpassing worth of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ

riversident@Philippians:3:9 @ and be found in him, not having my own righteousness that was from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God and rests on faith,

riversident@Philippians:3:12 @ Not that I have already obtained it or have already been made perfect, but I press on to lay hold of that for which I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:3:14 @ I press toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:3:15 @ Let us all who are full grown think in this way. If in anything you think differently, even that God will reveal to you,

riversident@Philippians:3:16 @ but so far as we have attained let us walk in the same path.

riversident@Philippians:3:18 @ For many are living as I used often to tell you and now say even weeping that they are enemies of the cross of Christ.

riversident@Philippians:3:20 @ For the state of which we are citizens is in the heavens and from there we are expecting a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@Philippians:4:1 @ SO, my brethren beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, stand firm thus in the Lord, beloved.

riversident@Philippians:4:7 @ And the peace of God which passes all understanding will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:4:8 @ To conclude, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is dignified, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovable, whatever is highly spoken of \'97 if there is any virtue or any praise \'97 think of that.

riversident@Philippians:4:11 @ Not that I am speaking because of want; for I have learned how to be content in whatever circumstances I am.

riversident@Philippians:4:18 @ I have enough of everything and more than enough. I am fully supplied since receiving from Epaphroditus the things from you, a fragrant odor, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.

riversident@Philippians:4:19 @ My God will supply every need of yours according to his wealth in glory in Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:4:21 @ Greet every holy one in Christ Jesus. The brethren with me send greetings to you.

riversident@Philippians:4:22 @ All the holy send greetings to you, especially those of Caesar's household.

riversident@Philippians:4:23 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirits!

riversident@Colossians:1:1 @ PAUL, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

riversident@Colossians:1:3 @ We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, in praying for you,

riversident@Colossians:1:4 @ because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love that you have to all the holy

riversident@Colossians:1:5 @ because of the hope laid up for us in heaven. Of this you have already heard in the true message of the good news

riversident@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you. Just as in all the world it is bearing fruit and growing, so also it is among you since the day that you heard and learned of the grace of God in truth.

riversident@Colossians:1:8 @ and who has told us of your love in the Spirit.

riversident@Colossians:1:11 @ May you be strengthened with all strength according to his glorious power, so as to have all patience and endurance.

riversident@Colossians:1:13 @ He has saved us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son,

riversident@Colossians:1:19 @ because it pleased God to have all his fullness dwell in him

riversident@Colossians:1:27 @ to whom God willed to make known what is the glorious wealth of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you the hope of glory.

riversident@Colossians:2:4 @ I say this that no one may deceive you by plausible arguments.

riversident@Colossians:2:6 @ Since, then, you have received Christ Jesus as Lord, live in him,

riversident@Colossians:2:13 @ You who were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh God has made alive with him, and has forgiven us all our sins.

riversident@Colossians:2:14 @ He erased the writing that was against us in the rules, the writing that was opposed to us. He has taken it out of the way by nailing it to his cross.

riversident@Colossians:2:22 @ referring to things that perish when used?

riversident@Colossians:3:8 @ But now you also must put away all wrath, anger, malice, abusive language. Vile talk must not be in your mouths.

riversident@Colossians:3:13 @ bearing with one another and forgiving one another, if any one has a grievance against any. Just as the Lord forgave you, so must you forgive.

riversident@Colossians:3:16 @ The message of Christ must dwell in you richly, as you teach in all wisdom and admonish one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs and sing with grace in your hearts to God.

riversident@Colossians:3:17 @ And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

riversident@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

riversident@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh toward them.

riversident@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey in everything your masters in the flesh, not with eye-service as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, because you reverence the Lord.

riversident@Colossians:4:1 @ MASTERS, give to your slaves what is just and equal, for you know that you have a Master in heaven.

riversident@Colossians:4:3 @ Pray along with us and for us that God may open for us a door for the message, so that I may tell the mystery of Christ for the sake of which I am in chains \'97

riversident@Colossians:4:7 @ Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful worker and fellow servant in the Lord, will tell you everything about me.

riversident@Colossians:4:9 @ And with him I am sending Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will tell you all about affairs here.

riversident@Colossians:4:10 @ Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, sends his greetings, and so does Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (note:)you have received letters about him; if he comes, welcome him(:note),

riversident@Colossians:4:11 @ and so does Jesus who is called Justus. These alone of those who are circumcised are my fellow workers for the kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.

riversident@Colossians:4:12 @ Epaphras, the servant of Christ Jesus, who is one of you, sends his greetings to you. He always wrestles in prayer on your behalf that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God.

riversident@Colossians:4:15 @ Give our greeting to the brethren in Laodicea and to Nympha and the church that meets in her house.

riversident@Colossians:4:17 @ Say to Archippus, See to it that you fully perform the service which you have accepted in the Lord.

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ PAUL and Silvanus and Timothy, to the Church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ unceasingly remembering your work of faith and labor of love and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ before God our Father.

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ and that our good news came to you not in word only but in power and in the Holy Spirit and in great assurance, just as you know we acted among you for your benefit.

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ You became imitators of us and of the Lord, receiving the message in great affliction with joy which the Holy Spirit gave,

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For the message of the Lord sounded forth from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith toward God has gone abroad, so that there is no need for us to speak a word.

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For the people themselves are telling about us, what a reception we had with you, and how you turned to God from idols, to serve the living and true God

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ and to wait for his Son from heaven \'97 his Son Jesus whom he raised from the dead and who is saving us from the coming wrath.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ but as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the good news, so we speak, not as if we were pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ Nor did we ever fall into flattering talk, as you know, nor use any pretext for self-enrichment \'97 God is witness \'97

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ Yearning over you so, we would gladly have imparted to you not only God's good news but our own lives as well, because you had become dear to us.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses \'97 and God is witness \'97 how purely and justly and blamelessly we acted toward you who believe.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ You know that just like a father toward his own children we encouraged each one of you, and warned and conjured you

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ For this reason we unceasingly give thanks to God that when you received from us the report of the message of God you accepted it not as the message of men, but, as it truly is, the message of God, which also is doing its work in you who believe.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you became imitators, brethren, of the churches of God that are in Judaea in Christ Jesus, because you too suffered the same things from your fellow countrymen that they did from the Jews,

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out and do not please God and are enemies to all men,

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ trying to prevent us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. All this goes always to fill up the measure of their sins. But God's fiercest wrath has overtaken them.

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

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope or joy or crown to boast of before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you and has brought us good news of your faith and love, and that you always keep us well in mind and long to see us, just as we long to see you,

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For how can we be grateful enough to God for you in view of all the joy we have because of you,

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ May our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus Christ open the way for us to come to you.

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ The Lord make you to abound and overflow in love toward one another and toward all men, just as we do toward you,

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ that your hearts may be made firm and you may be blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his holy ones.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ TO conclude, brethren, we beg of you and urge you in the Lord Jesus that, as you learned from us how you ought to live to please God, and are living, you will excel still more.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ For you know what directions we have given you through the Lord Jesus.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ not in the passion of lust, as the Gentiles do who know not God;

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ God has not called us to live in impurity, but in holiness.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ and to be ambitious to lead a quiet life and to mind each his own business and to work with your hands, as we instructed you.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ Thus you will live becomingly in the sight of outsiders and will have need of nothing.

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

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

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ Then let us not be sleeping like the rest of men, but let us watch and be sober.

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

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God has not destined us to wrath, but to the winning of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ who died for us that whether we are waking or sleeping we may live in company with him.

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

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

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ PAUL and Silvanus and Timothy to the Church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ so that we ourselves glory in you among the churches of God because of your endurance and faith in all of your persecutions and in the distresses you are bearing.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ This is a proof of God's righteous judgment. It is to make you worthy of God's kingdom, on behalf of which you are suffering,

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ since it is just on God's part to repay with trouble those who are troubling you,

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to repay to you, who are being troubled, rest with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ With flaming fire he will inflict vengeance on those who do not know God and do not obey the good news of our Lord Jesus.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ They will suffer the penalty of eternal destruction and be sent away from the face of the Lord and from his glorious power,

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, according to the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ WITH regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to meet him, I beg you, brethren,

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be quickly unsettled in mind nor excited by either a revelation or by a message or a letter supposed to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is close at hand.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one lead you astray in any way, because it will not come until the Apostasy has first come and the Man of Lawlessness has been revealed \'97 the Son of Perdition,

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that while I was still with you I used to tell you this?

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

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then the Lawless One will be revealed. But the Lord Jesus will sweep him away with the breath of his mouth and will make him powerless by the splendor of his coming.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and in every kind of wicked deception of those who are perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth so that they might be saved.

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

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ To this he called you through the good news that we brought, so that you may share the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal encouragement and good hope through grace,

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ IN conclusion, brethren, pray for us, that the Lord's message may run and be glorified, as among you,

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ We charge you, brethren, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to stand aloof from every brother who is living in a disorderly way and not according to the teaching that you received from us.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know that you should imitate us, for we were not disorderly when among you,

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that some among you are leading disorderly lives, busy about nothing and yet busybodies.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ Such we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to work quietly and eat their own bread.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:13 @ But you, brethren, must not become discouraged in doing well.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you.

riversident@1Timothy:1:8 @ We know that the Law is excellent, if any one uses it lawfully.

riversident@1Timothy:1:9 @ But we know this: that law is not laid down for a righteous man, but for the lawless and the insubordinate, the ungodly and sinners, the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

riversident@1Timothy:1:11 @ such as accords with the glorious good news of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.

riversident@1Timothy:1:12 @ I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has given me strength, because he thought me faithful and put me into his service,

riversident@1Timothy:1:13 @ though before that I spoke profanely and was a persecutor and insolent in outrages. But I received mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

riversident@1Timothy:1:14 @ And the grace of our Lord overflowed in me with faith and love in Christ Jesus.

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

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

riversident@1Timothy:2:12 @ I do not permit a woman to teach or to usurp authority over a man, but she must remain silent.

riversident@1Timothy:3:7 @ He must have a good reputation with outsiders so as not to fall into reproach and the snare of the Devil.

riversident@1Timothy:3:8 @ Deacons, in the same way, must be dignified, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not eager for base gain,

riversident@1Timothy:3:10 @ They must first be tested, and then let them fill the office of deacon if there is nothing against them.

riversident@1Timothy:3:11 @ Women, in the same way, must be dignified, not slanderers, temperate, trustworthy in everything.

riversident@1Timothy:3:12 @ Deacons must be men true to one woman, presiding well over their children and their own houses.

riversident@1Timothy:4:6 @ In teaching this to the brethren you will be a noble servant of Christ Jesus, nourished by the words of the faith and of the excellent teaching which you have followed.

riversident@1Timothy:4:8 @ Bodily exercise is useful to a small degree, but godliness is useful for everything. "It has the promise of the present life and of the life that is to come."

riversident@1Timothy:4:9 @ This saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance.

riversident@1Timothy:4:10 @ For to this end we are laboring and wrestling, because we have set our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of believers.

riversident@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one look down on you because you are young, but be an example to believers in speech, in the life you lead, in love, in faith, in purity.

riversident@1Timothy:5:4 @ If any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to act piously toward their own family and to repay what they owe to their parents and grandparents. For this is pleasing in the sight of God.

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

riversident@Hebrews:4:14 @ Since, then, we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

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

riversident@James:1:17 @ every good gift and every perfect boon is from above; it descends from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change or shadow caused by turning.

riversident@James:1:18 @ Of his own will he made us his children through the message of truth, so that we might be a sort of first fruits of his creatures.

riversident@James:1:19 @ I wish you to know this, my beloved brethren: Every man must be quick to hear, but slow to speak, slow to anger.

riversident@James:1:20 @ For a man's anger does not work out God's righteousness.

riversident@James:1:26 @ If any one thinks himself religious while he does not bridle his tongue, but deceives his own heart, that man's religion is worthless.

riversident@James:2:1 @ MY brethren, do not hold the faith of our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with partiality for persons.

riversident@James:2:14 @ Of what use is it, my brethren, for any one to say that he has faith, if he has not works? Can faith save him?

riversident@James:2:17 @ Just so faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead.

riversident@James:2:20 @ Are you willing to learn, O vacant-minded man, that faith without works is useless?

riversident@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham, our father, pronounced righteous because of works when he laid Isaac his son on the altar?

riversident@James:2:23 @ and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham had faith in God and it was credited to him for righteousness" and he was called "God's friend."

riversident@James:2:24 @ You see that a man is pronounced righteous because of works and not because of faith alone.

riversident@James:2:25 @ In the same way was not Rahab, the prostitute, pronounced righteous because of works when she had received the messengers and sent them out by a different road?

riversident@James:3:3 @ If we put bits into the horses' mouths to make them obey us, we turn about their whole bodies.

riversident@James:3:5 @ Just so the tongue is a small member, but boasts of great things. Think how small a fire may be and yet how vast the forest that it may set ablaze.

riversident@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and party-spirit in your hearts, do not boast and falsely contradict the truth.

riversident@James:3:16 @ For where jealousy and party-spirit are, there is confusion and every base affair.

riversident@James:3:18 @ The fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

riversident@James:4:2 @ You long for something and do not have it. You murder and envy and cannot obtain it. You battle and war. You do not have, because of your not asking.

riversident@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask wickedly to waste it on your pleasures.

riversident@James:4:5 @ Do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose? Does the Spirit which he made dwell in us long enviously?

riversident@James:4:13 @ Come, now, you who say, "To-day or to-morrow we will go to such a city and spend a year and do business and make money,"

riversident@James:5:3 @ your gold and silver are rusted over and the rust on them will be an evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire.

riversident@James:5:5 @ You have lived luxuriously in the land and have given yourselves up to pleasure. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

riversident@James:5:6 @ You have condemned, you have murdered, the righteous; he does not resist you.

riversident@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the ground and is patient over it until he receives the early and the late rains.

riversident@James:5:8 @ You too must be patient. Keep your hearts steadfast, for the coming of the Lord is near.

riversident@James:5:11 @ We call them blessed because they endured. You have heard of the patience of Job and have seen the end of the Lord's dealings with him, that the Lord is very tender and compassionate.

riversident@James:5:16 @ Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another in order to be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man has great power.

riversident@1Peter:1:1 @ PETER, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the Chosen Ones of the scattered Jews in foreign lands who are living in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia \'97

riversident@1Peter:1:2 @ chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father and made holy by the Spirit to obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace be to you and peace be multiplied.

riversident@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead \'97

riversident@1Peter:1:7 @ so that your tested faith, much more precious than gold that perishes though tested by fire, may be found to your praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed,

riversident@1Peter:1:8 @ whom you love though you have not seen him; in whom you have faith though now you do not see him, and you rejoice with unspeakable and glorious joy

riversident@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore brace up your minds, be calm and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed.

riversident@1Peter:1:16 @ for it is written, "You shall be holy because I am holy."

riversident@1Peter:1:19 @ but by precious blood, as of a faultless, spotless lamb, the blood of Christ,

riversident@1Peter:1:22 @ Now that you have made your souls holy by obedience to the truth for sincere brotherly love, you must love one another steadily from your hearts,

riversident@1Peter:2:4 @ Coming to him, a living stone, rejected by men but with the Lord chosen and precious,

riversident@1Peter:2:5 @ you also as living stones are built up, a spiritual house, and become a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

riversident@1Peter:2:8 @ a stone for the foot to strike, a rock to stumble over." Their feet strike the message because of their unbelief, and to this they were destined.

riversident@1Peter:2:16 @ Live as free men, yet not using freedom as a cloak for wickedness, but as God's slaves.

riversident@1Peter:2:18 @ Household servants, be submissive with all reverence to your lords, not only to the good and fair, but also to the surly.

riversident@1Peter:2:19 @ For this is grace if for conscience toward God any one bears pain, suffering unjustly.

riversident@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you were called, because Christ too suffered for you, leaving you an example that you might follow in his foot-steps.

riversident@1Peter:2:23 @ When he was reviled he did not revile back; he suffered, but made no threat; he committed himself to him who judges justly.

riversident@1Peter:2:24 @ He bore our sins in his own body on the tree that we might die to sins and live to righteousness.

riversident@1Peter:3:1 @ IN the same way you wives are to be submissive to your own husbands, so that if any disbelieve the message they may be won over by the lives of their wives without argument,

riversident@1Peter:3:3 @ Your adornment must not be of the external kind \'97 braiding the hair and putting on gold and wearing fine dresses;

riversident@1Peter:3:4 @ but the hidden personality of the heart must wear the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in God's sight most precious.

riversident@1Peter:3:5 @ For so of old the holy women who hoped in God adorned themselves. They were submissive to their own husbands,

riversident@1Peter:3:7 @ In the same way, you husbands must live with your wives wisely, since woman's sex is weaker, but you must give them honor as fellow heirs of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered.

riversident@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, all must be like-minded, sympathetic, full of brotherly love, compassionate, humble-minded,

riversident@1Peter:3:9 @ not repaying evil for evil or abuse for abuse, but rather blessing, for that is what you were called for \'97 to inherit a blessing.

riversident@1Peter:3:10 @ For "He who would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit.

riversident@1Peter:3:11 @ He must turn away from evil and do good; he must seek peace and pursue it.

riversident@1Peter:3:12 @ For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous and his ears are open to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against wrongdoers."

riversident@1Peter:3:14 @ But if you should suffer for being righteous, you are blessed. Have no fear of them and do not be disturbed;

riversident@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ once for all died for sins, a righteous man for unrighteous men, so that he might lead us to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit,

riversident@1Peter:3:21 @ This is a type of baptism, which now saves us \'97 not the putting off of soil from the flesh, but the endeavor for a good conscience toward God through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

riversident@1Peter:4:1 @ SINCE, then, Christ suffered in the flesh, you also must arm yourselves with the same mind. For he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

riversident@1Peter:4:3 @ The time that has passed was enough to spend doing the will of the Gentiles, when you went on in indecencies, passions, hard drinking, revelries, carousings, and lawless idolatries.

riversident@1Peter:4:7 @ The end of all things is near. Therefore be serious and sober and give yourselves to prayer.

riversident@1Peter:4:11 @ If any one speaks, let it be as uttering the oracles of God. If any one serves, let it be from the strength that God supplies. Thus in all things let God be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him be glory and strength for the ages of the ages! Amen.

riversident@1Peter:4:15 @ No one of you must suffer as a murderer or as a thief or as a wrongdoer or as a meddler in other men's affairs.

riversident@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God. And if it begins first with us, what will be the end of those who disobey the good news of God?

riversident@1Peter:4:18 @ If the righteous is saved with difficulty, where will the godless and sinful appear?

riversident@1Peter:5:2 @ I beg you to shepherd the flock of God that is among you, not because you must, but willingly, not for base gain, but eagerly,

riversident@1Peter:5:5 @ In the same way you younger men must be subject to your elders. You all must put on the apron of humble service for one another. For God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

riversident@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silvanus, your faithful brother, as I esteem him, I am writing to you briefly, to encourage you and to testify that this is the true grace of God. Take your stand in it.

riversident@2Peter:1:1 @ SIMON PETER, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have been allotted a faith as precious as ours:

riversident@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace be to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.

riversident@2Peter:1:3 @ Since his divine power has given us all things helpful to life and piety through the knowledge of him who has called us by his own glory and virtue,

riversident@2Peter:1:4 @ and thereby great and precious promises have been granted to us, that through them you may escape the corruption that is in the world through passion and become sharers in the divine nature,

riversident@2Peter:1:8 @ For when you have these in abundance they make you to be neither idle nor fruitless regarding the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@2Peter:1:11 @ For so entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly provided for you.

riversident@2Peter:1:13 @ I think it right so long as I am in this tent to arouse you by reminding you,

riversident@2Peter:1:14 @ since I know that the laying aside of my tent will come soon, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made plain to me.

riversident@2Peter:1:16 @ For we were not following cunningly devised myths when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eye-witnesses of his majesty.

riversident@2Peter:1:19 @ Thus have we the words of the prophets confirmed, and you will do well to give attention to them as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;

riversident@2Peter:2:1 @ BUT false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among yourselves, and they will craftily bring in deadly heresies, even disowning the Lord who bought them and bringing on themselves quick ruin.

riversident@2Peter:2:3 @ In covetousness they will make gain out of you by their cunning words. But their condemnation from of old has not been inactive, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

riversident@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare angels that had sinned, but thrust them down to Tartarus and committed them to pits of darkness to be kept for judgment,

riversident@2Peter:2:5 @ and did not spare the ancient world, but guarded Noah, a herald of righteousness, and seven others, when he brought the flood on the world of the ungodly;

riversident@2Peter:2:7 @ and rescued righteous Lot worn out by the indecent lives of the lawless, \'97

riversident@2Peter:2:8 @ for that righteous man living among them was tortured day and night in his righteous soul by the sight and hearing of their lawless deeds, \'97

riversident@2Peter:2:9 @ the Lord knows how to rescue the pious from trial and how to keep the wicked under punishment for the day of judgment,

riversident@2Peter:2:10 @ especially those who go after flesh in polluting passions, and despise lordship. They are daring, self-willed; they do not tremble to speak insultingly of glorious beings

riversident@2Peter:2:13 @ and will suffer unrighteously as the reward of their own unrighteousness. They think it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are spots and blots as they revel in their deceptions while they feast sumptuously with you.

riversident@2Peter:2:14 @ They have eyes engrossed with some adulteress, eyes which never cease from sin. They seduce unsteady souls. They have hearts practiced in covetousness. They are children of a curse.

riversident@2Peter:2:15 @ Leaving the straight path they have wandered away following the path of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness.

riversident@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they have been again entangled and overcome, their last state has become worse than the first.

riversident@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment that has been committed to them.

riversident@2Peter:3:2 @ to arouse your honest minds to recall the predictions of the holy prophets and the commands of your apostles from the Lord and Savior.

riversident@2Peter:3:8 @ Do not forget this one thing, beloved, that one day with the Lord is like a thousand years and a thousand years are like one day.

riversident@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow about what he has promised, as some think of slowness, but is long-suffering toward us, wishing not to have any perish but to have all come to a change of heart.

riversident@2Peter:3:13 @ But according to his promise we are expecting new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness will dwell.

riversident@2Peter:3:18 @ but grow in grace and in knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory now and to the day of eternity!

riversident@1John:1:3 @ what wo have seen and heard we are telling you also, so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

riversident@1John:1:7 @ If we live in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.

riversident@1John:1:8 @ If we say, "We have no sin," we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.

riversident@1John:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness:

riversident@1John:1:10 @ If we say, "We have not sinned," we make him a liar and his message is not in us.

riversident@1John:2:1 @ MY children, I am writing this to you in order that you may not sin. Even if any one sins, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, who is righteous.

riversident@1John:2:8 @ Again I am writing a new command, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true Light is already shining.

riversident@1John:2:11 @ He who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness and knows not where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

riversident@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven for his name's sake.

riversident@1John:2:13 @ I am writing to you, fathers, because you have come to know him who has been from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have conquered the Evil One. I have written to you, little children, because you have come to know the Father.

riversident@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, because you have come to know him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong and the message of God remains in you and you have conquered the Evil One.

riversident@1John:2:16 @ for all that is in the world, the passions of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the show and pride of life, is not from the Father, but from the world.

riversident@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us, for if they had been of us they would have continued with us. But they went out so that it might be plainly seen that not all are of us.

riversident@1John:2:21 @ I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it and know that no lie is from the truth.

riversident@1John:2:22 @ Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is the Antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.

riversident@1John:2:25 @ And this is the promise that he has promised us \'97 the life eternal.

riversident@1John:2:27 @ But as for you, the anointing that you have received from him remains in you and you have no need for any one to teach you, but as his anointing teaches you about all things and is true and is no lie and as it has taught you, you must remain in him.

riversident@1John:2:29 @ If you know that he is righteous, you know that every one who does righteousness has been born of him.

riversident@1John:3:1 @ SEE what love the Father has bestowed on us that we should be called children of God. And so we are. The reason why tho world does not know us is that it did not know him.

riversident@1John:3:3 @ And every one who has this hope set upon Christ purifies himself just as Christ is pure.

riversident@1John:3:7 @ Little children, let no one deceive you. He who is doing righteousness is righteous as Christ is righteous.

riversident@1John:3:9 @ No one who has been born of God commits sin, for God's life-giving germ remains in him and he cannot continue sinning, because he has been born of God.

riversident@1John:3:10 @ By this the children of God are plain to see, also the children of the Devil. Every one who is not doing righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.

riversident@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we must love one another.

riversident@1John:3:12 @ Not like Cain, who was of the Wicked One and killed his brother. And for what reason did he kill him? Because his own deeds were wicked and his brother's righteous.

riversident@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed from death into life because we love the brethren. Whoever does not love remains in death.

riversident@1John:3:16 @ By this we have come to know love \'97 that Christ laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

riversident@1John:3:18 @ Let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

riversident@1John:3:20 @ because if our hearts condemn us God is greater than our hearts and knows all things.

riversident@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us we have confidence toward God,

riversident@1John:3:22 @ and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commands and do what is pleasing in his sight.

riversident@1John:3:23 @ And this is his command \'97 to believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another as he has given us command.

riversident@1John:3:24 @ He who keeps his commands remains in God and God remains in him. By this we know that God remains in us \'97 by the Spirit which he has given to us.

riversident@1John:4:1 @ BELOVED, do not trust every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are from God. For many false prophets have come out into the world.

riversident@1John:4:2 @ By this we know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,

riversident@1John:4:3 @ and no spirit that does not confess Jesus is from God. This is the spirit of Antichrist, which you have heard is coming into the world and is already in the world.

riversident@1John:4:4 @ But you are of God, little children, and have conquered them, because he who is in us is greater than he who is in the world.

riversident@1John:4:6 @ We are of God. Whoever knows God listens to us: whoever is not of God does not listen to us. In this way we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

riversident@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and every one who loves has been born of God and knows God.

riversident@1John:4:9 @ By this the love of God to us was made plain: that God sent his only Son into the world so that we may have life through him.

riversident@1John:4:10 @ In this is love \'97 not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

riversident@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God has so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

riversident@1John:4:12 @ No one has ever seen God. If we love one another God abides in us and his love is made perfect in us.

riversident@1John:4:13 @ By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has imparted to us of his Spirit.

riversident@1John:4:15 @ Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him and he in God.

riversident@1John:4:16 @ We have come to know and have put our trust in the love which God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God and God remains in him.

riversident@1John:4:17 @ Thus love has been made perfect with us so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment, because as God is we also are in this world.

riversident@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has pain. He who fears has not been made perfect in love.

riversident@1John:4:19 @ We love because he first loved us.

riversident@1John:5:1 @ EVERY one who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and every one who loves the father who gave him life loves every one who has received life from that father.

riversident@1John:5:4 @ because all that is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith.

riversident@1John:5:5 @ Who is the conqueror of the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

riversident@1John:5:6 @ This is he who came through water and blood, Jesus Christ. Not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is the truth.

riversident@1John:5:10 @ He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony within himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar; because he has not believed the testimony which God has borne regarding his Son.

riversident@1John:5:11 @ This is the testimony: that God has given to us life eternal and this life is in his Son.

riversident@1John:5:14 @ This is the confidence that we have toward him: that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us.

riversident@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that he hears us when we ask anything, we know that we obtain the things that we have asked of him.

riversident@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees his brother committing a sin that is not deadly, he must ask and God will give him life for those who are committing sin that is not deadly. There is sin that is deadly. I do not say that he should pray in behalf of that.

riversident@1John:5:17 @ All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin that is not deadly.

riversident@1John:5:20 @ We know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding to know him who is true, and we are in him who is true and in his Son, Jesus Christ. This is the true God and life eternal.

riversident@2John:1:2 @ for the sake of the truth which remains in us and will be with us forever:

riversident@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

riversident@2John:1:5 @ And now I pray you, Lady, not as if writing a new command for you, but one that we have had from the beginning, let us love one another.

riversident@2John:1:6 @ This is love: to live by his commands. This is the command, as you heard from the beginning that you must live by it.

riversident@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have come out into the world and they do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the Antichrist.

riversident@2John:1:10 @ If any one comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house and do not bid him welcome.

riversident@3John:1:1 @ THE Elder to Gaius the beloved, whom I love in truth:

riversident@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, I pray that in everything you may prosper and be in health, just as your soul now prospers.

riversident@3John:1:9 @ I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who desires to be first among them, does not receive us.

riversident@3John:1:10 @ Therefore, if I come I will bring to mind the works that he is doing, accusing us with wicked words, and not satisfied with that, neither does he receive the brethren, and he hinders those who wish to do so and expels them from the church.

riversident@3John:1:12 @ Testimony has been borne to Demetrius by all and by the truth itself. We too bear testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.

riversident@Jude:1:1 @ JUDE, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, to those who are in God the Father, beloved, kept for Jesus Christ and called:

riversident@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, although I have been making every effort to write to you regarding our common salvation, I now find it necessary to write and urge you to contend vigorously for the faith that was once for all delivered to the holy.

riversident@Jude:1:4 @ For certain persons have crept in, who of old were written of as predestined to this doom, godless, changing the grace of our God into profligacy and disowning our only Ruler and Lord, Jesus Christ.

riversident@Jude:1:8 @ Just so these dreamers defile the flesh, reject government, and speak abusively of glorious beings.

riversident@Jude:1:9 @ But Michael, the arch-angel, when in dispute with the Devil he was arguing about the body of Moses, did not venture to bring against him an abusive judgment, but said, "The Lord rebuke you."

riversident@Jude:1:11 @ Alas for them! for they have traveled in the path of Cain, and for hire have rushed headlong into the error of Balaam, and have perished in the rebellious talk of Korah.

riversident@Jude:1:14 @ Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these men when he said, "See, the Lord has come with ten thousand of his holy ones
