tcent@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers,

tcent@Romans:1:10 @ asking that somehow by God's will I may now at last find the way to come to you.

tcent@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you—

tcent@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith.

tcent@Romans:1:13 @ I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but have been prevented from doing so until now) in order that I might have some harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.

tcent@Romans:1:20 @ For since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his eternal power and deity, has been clearly seen, being understood by the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;

tcent@Romans:1:32 @ Though they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

tcent@Romans:2:2 @ We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who do such things.

tcent@Romans:2:3 @ Do you think, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do the same yourself, you will escape the judgment of God?

tcent@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

tcent@Romans:2:15 @ They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts accusing or else excusing them

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

tcent@Romans:2:19 @ and if you are sure that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

tcent@Romans:2:22 @ You who say that one must not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

tcent@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God, what shall we say? That God is unjust to inflict wrath on us? (I speak in a human way.)

tcent@Romans:3:8 @ Why not say – as we are being slanderously reported as saying and as some claim that we say—»Let us do evil that good may come«? Their condemnation is just.

tcent@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we Jews any better off? Certainly not; for we have already charged that all men, both Jews and Greeks, are under the power of sin.

tcent@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped and the whole world may be held accountable to God.

tcent@Romans:3:24 @ and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

tcent@Romans:3:26 @ and it was to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

tcent@Romans:3:28 @ For we hold that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the law.

tcent@Romans:4:1 @ What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, has found?

tcent@Romans:4:9 @ Is this blessedness only upon the circumcised, or also upon the uncircumcised? For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham as righteousness.

tcent@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness which he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised, that he might be the father of all who believe but have not been circumcised, in order that righteousness might be reckoned to them.

tcent@Romans:4:13 @ The promise to Abraham and his descendants, that he would be heir of the world, was not through the law but through the righteousness of faith.

tcent@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all his descendants—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, for he is the father of us all

tcent@Romans:4:17 @ (as it is written, »I have made you the father of many nations«) in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls things that do not exist as though they did.

tcent@Romans:4:18 @ In hope, he believed against hope, so that he became the father of many nations; as he had been told, »So shall your descendants be.«

tcent@Romans:4:21 @ being fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised.

tcent@Romans:4:22 @ That is why it was »reckoned to him as righteousness.«

tcent@Romans:5:3 @ And not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance;

tcent@Romans:5:8 @ But God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.

tcent@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift is not like the effect of that one man's sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the gift following many trespasses brings justification.

tcent@Romans:5:17 @ For if, by the one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.)

tcent@Romans:5:20 @ Law came in, that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,

tcent@Romans:5:21 @ so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

tcent@Romans:6:1 @ What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?

tcent@Romans:6:3 @ Or do you not know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

tcent@Romans:6:4 @ We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

tcent@Romans:6:6 @ We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.

tcent@Romans:6:8 @ Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.

tcent@Romans:6:9 @ For we know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him.

tcent@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you obey its passions.

tcent@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that if you yield yourselves to any one to obey as slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?

tcent@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed,

tcent@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is holiness and its end, eternal life.

tcent@Romans:7:1 @ Do you not know, brethren—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives?

tcent@Romans:7:3 @ So then, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law, and though she marries another man, she is not an adulteress.

tcent@Romans:7:4 @ Likewise, my brethren, you have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit to God.

tcent@Romans:7:6 @ But now, by dying to what once held us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

tcent@Romans:7:13 @ Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But it was sin, working death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be recognized as sin, so that through the commandment sin might become sinful beyond measure.

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

tcent@Romans:7:16 @ Now if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good.

tcent@Romans:7:17 @ So then, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.

tcent@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will to do what is good, but I cannot do it.

tcent@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.

tcent@Romans:7:21 @ So I find it to be a law that when I want to do good, evil is present with me.

tcent@Romans:7:24 @ Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?

tcent@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do, in that it was weakened through the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin: he condemned sin in the flesh,

tcent@Romans:8:4 @ in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

tcent@Romans:8:7 @ For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so;

tcent@Romans:8:16 @ The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

tcent@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with him, in order that we may also be glorified with him.

tcent@Romans:8:18 @ I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed in us.

tcent@Romans:8:22 @ We know that the whole creation has been groaning in birth pangs together until now.

tcent@Romans:8:24 @ For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees?

tcent@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.

tcent@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.

tcent@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

tcent@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,

tcent@Romans:9:2 @ that I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.

tcent@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh.

tcent@Romans:9:11 @ though the twins were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad, in order that God's purpose of election might stand, not because of works but because of his call,

tcent@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture says to Pharaoh, »I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I may show my power in you, and that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.«

tcent@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say, then? That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, righteousness through faith;

tcent@Romans:9:31 @ but Israel, who pursued the law of righteousness, has not attained that law.

tcent@Romans:10:1 @ Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved.

tcent@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but it is not according to knowledge.

tcent@Romans:10:3 @ For, being ignorant of the righteousness that comes from God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness.

tcent@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ is the end of the law, that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.

tcent@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness based on faith says, »Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’« (that is, to bring Christ down)

tcent@Romans:10:7 @ or »Who will descend into the abyss?« (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).

tcent@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? (that is, the word of faith which we preach);

tcent@Romans:10:9 @ because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

tcent@Romans:11:14 @ in the hope that I may somehow arouse to jealousy the kinsmen of my flesh and save some of them.

tcent@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast over the branches. If you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

tcent@Romans:11:19 @ You will say then, »Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.«

tcent@Romans:11:20 @ That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast only by faith. So do not be proud, but stand in awe.

tcent@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and were grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these natural branches be grafted back into their own olive tree!

tcent@Romans:11:25 @ I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.

tcent@Romans:11:31 @ so they have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may receive mercy.

tcent@Romans:11:32 @ For God has bound all men over to disobedience, that he may have mercy upon all.

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

tcent@Romans:12:6 @ Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;

tcent@Romans:13:1 @ Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist have been instituted by God.

tcent@Romans:13:11 @ And do this, knowing the hour, that now it is full time for you to wake from sleep. For now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.

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

tcent@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.

tcent@Romans:14:20 @ Do not, for the sake of food, destroy the work of God. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.

tcent@Romans:14:21 @ It is right not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that makes your brother stumble.

tcent@Romans:14:22 @ The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself for what he approves.

tcent@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through perseverance and the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

tcent@Romans:15:6 @ that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

tcent@Romans:15:8 @ For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the circumcised to show God's truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs,

tcent@Romans:15:9 @ and in order that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written:

tcent@Romans:15:13 @ May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

tcent@Romans:15:14 @ I myself am satisfied about you, my brethren, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and able to instruct one another.

tcent@Romans:15:15 @ But I have written very boldly to you on some points, so as to remind you again, because of the grace that was given me from God,

tcent@Romans:15:16 @ to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

tcent@Romans:15:19 @ by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit, so that from Jerusalem and as far round as Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

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

tcent@Romans:15:31 @ that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,

tcent@Romans:15:32 @ so that by God's will I may come to you with joy, and together with you be refreshed.

tcent@Romans:16:2 @ that you may receive her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and help her in whatever she has need from you, for she has been a helper of many and of myself also.

tcent@Romans:16:5 @ greet also the church that meets in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first convert of Asia for Christ.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:5 @ that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge—

tcent@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift, as you eagerly wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ;

tcent@1Corinthians:1:10 @ I appeal to you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same judgment.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For I have been informed by Chloe's people, that there are quarrels among you, my brethren.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:12 @ What I mean is this, that each one of you says, »I am of Paul,« and »I of Apollos,« and »I of Cephas,« and »I of Christ.«

tcent@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I am thankful that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

tcent@1Corinthians:1:15 @ so that no one would say you were baptized in my name.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:16 @ (Now I did baptize also the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any one else.)

tcent@1Corinthians:1:28 @ God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things, and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are,

tcent@1Corinthians:1:29 @ so that no flesh may boast before God.

tcent@1Corinthians:1:30 @ It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

tcent@1Corinthians:2:5 @ so that your faith might not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and which God destined for our glory before the ages.

tcent@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand the things freely given to us by God.

tcent@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?

tcent@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If any one destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God’s temple is holy, and that temple you are.

tcent@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become a fool so that he may become wise.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:2 @ Moreover it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by any human court; I do not even judge myself.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:6 @ Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively applied to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that in us you may learn not to go beyond what is written, so that no one of you will become arrogant in favor of one against the other.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who regards you as different? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

tcent@1Corinthians:4:8 @ You are already filled! You have already become rich! You have become kings without us! And indeed, I wish that you had become kings so that we also might reign with you.

tcent@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For, I think that God has exhibited us apostles last of all, like men condemned to death; because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

tcent@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: a man has his father's wife.

tcent@1Corinthians:5:5 @ you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

tcent@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough?

tcent@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

tcent@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you not competent to try trivial cases?

tcent@1Corinthians:6:3 @ Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life!

tcent@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no man among you wise enough to decide between his brethren,

tcent@1Corinthians:6:6 @ but brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers?

tcent@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Actually, then, it is already a defeat for you, that you have lawsuits with one another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?

tcent@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor sexual perverts,

tcent@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!

tcent@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he who joins himself to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, »The two shall become one flesh.«

tcent@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body.

tcent@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;

tcent@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not deprive one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:7 @ I wish that all men were as I myself am. But each man has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarried and to the widows that it is good for them if they remain even as I.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:10 @ To the married I give charge, not I but the Lord, that the wife should not separate from her husband

tcent@1Corinthians:7:11 @ (but if she does leave, she must remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband should not divorce his wife.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I say, not the Lord, that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he must not divorce her.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Brethren, let each one remain with God in that condition in which he was called.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I think that in view of the present distress it is good for a person to remain as he is.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:29 @ I mean, brethren, the appointed time has grown very short; so that from now on, those who have wives should live as though they had none,

tcent@1Corinthians:7:34 @ and his interests are divided. The unmarried woman, and the virgin, is concerned about the affairs of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but the married woman is concerned about the affairs of the world, how she may please her husband.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any man thinks that he is not acting properly toward his betrothed, if she is past her youth, and if it must be so, let him do what he wishes, he does not sin; let them marry.

tcent@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is; and I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning food sacrificed to idols: we know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:2 @ If anyone imagines that he knows something, he does not yet know as he ought to know.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Therefore concerning the eating of food sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

tcent@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore, if food causes my brother to fall, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause my brother to fall.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the Law of Moses, »You shall not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain.« Is it for oxen that God is concerned?

tcent@1Corinthians:9:13 @ Do you not know that those who work in the temple get their food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar?

tcent@1Corinthians:9:14 @ In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living from the gospel.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing this in the hope that you will do such things for me. I would rather die than have anyone deprive me of my ground for boasting.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What then is my reward? Just this: that in my preaching I may offer the gospel free of charge, and so not make full use of my right in the gospel.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, that I might win the more.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:20 @ To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews; to those under the law I became as one under the law—though not being myself under the law—so that I might win those under the law.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those who are without law, I became as one without law, though not being without the law of God but under the law of Christ, so that I might win those who are without the law.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:22 @ To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, so that I might by all means save some.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:23 @ I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win.

tcent@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:1 @ For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea;

tcent@1Corinthians:10:12 @ Therefore let any one who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man. And God is faithful, who will not let you be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What do I mean then? That a thing offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

tcent@1Corinthians:10:20 @ No, but I say that the things pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons.

tcent@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat anything that is sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience;

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

tcent@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I try to please all men in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him,

tcent@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Therefore when you meet together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat,

tcent@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread,

tcent@1Corinthians:11:30 @ That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord so that we will not be condemned along with the world.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:34 @ If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, so that you will not come together for judgment. About the other things I will give directions when I come.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:2 @ You know that when you were pagans, you were led astray to mute idols, however you may have been moved.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, »Jesus be cursed,« and no one can say, »Jesus is Lord,« except by the Holy Spirit.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, »Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,« it would not for that reason be any less a part of the body.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, »Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,« it would not for that reason be any less a part of the body.

tcent@1Corinthians:12:22 @ On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable,

tcent@1Corinthians:12:24 @ while our more presentable members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving the greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

tcent@1Corinthians:12:25 @ so that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than he who speaks in tongues, unless some one interprets, so that the church may be edified.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So it is with you, unless you utter by the tongue speech that is intelligible, how will anyone know what is spoken? For you will be speaking into the air.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore, he who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank God that I speak in tongues more than you all;

tcent@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church assembles together and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are mad?

tcent@1Corinthians:14:25 @ the secrets of his heart are disclosed; and so, he will fall on his face, and worship God, declaring that God is really among you.

tcent@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all be encouraged;

tcent@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks he is a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that what I am writing to you is the Lord's command.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

tcent@1Corinthians:15:4 @ that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,

tcent@1Corinthians:15:5 @ and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:6 @ After that he appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached that he has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

tcent@1Corinthians:15:15 @ More than that, we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified against God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:27 @ »For God has put all things in subjection under his feet.« But when it says, »All things are put in subjection under him,« it is plain that he is excepted who put all things under him.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:28 @ When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to the one who put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And that which you sow, you do not sow the body which is to be, but a bare grain, perhaps of wheat or of something else.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:50 @ Now I tell you this, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

tcent@1Corinthians:15:54 @ When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then will come to pass the saying that is written:

tcent@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

tcent@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of every week, each one of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come.

tcent@1Corinthians:16:6 @ and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may help me on my journey, wherever I go.

tcent@1Corinthians:16:10 @ Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you with nothing to fear, for he is doing the work of the Lord, just as I am.

tcent@1Corinthians:16:11 @ So let no one despise him. Send him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

tcent@1Corinthians:16:14 @ Let all that you do be done in love.

tcent@1Corinthians:16:15 @ You know that the household of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints. Now I urge you, brethren,

tcent@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca greet you warmly in the lord, with the church that is in their house.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:6 @ If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which is effective in the patient enduring of the same sufferings that we suffer.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:7 @ And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of our affliction which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:10 @ He delivered us from so deadly a peril, and he will deliver us; on him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:11 @ You also must help us by your prayers, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us in answer to the prayers of many.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our boast is this: the testimony of our conscience, that with holiness and godly sincerity, not in worldly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and still more toward you.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:14 @ as you have understood us in part, that you can be proud of us just as we can be of you, in the day of the Lord Jesus.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:15 @ Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a double benefit.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:17 @ When I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or do I make my plans in a fleshly manner so that in the same breath I say, »Yes, Yes« and »No, No«?

tcent@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But I call God as my witness that it was in order to spare you that I did not return to Corinth.

tcent@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we lord it over your faith; but we work with you for your joy, for you stand firm in your faith.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:1 @ So I made up my mind that I would not make another painful visit to you.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote as I did, so that when I came I might not suffer pain from those who should have made me rejoice, for I had confidence in all of you, that my joy would be the joy of you all.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For I wrote you out of much affliction and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to cause you pain but to let you know the abundant love that I have for you.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so you should rather turn to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For this is why I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in everything.

tcent@2Corinthians:2:11 @ in order that Satan might gain no advantage over us; for we are not ignorant of his schemes.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:3 @ You show that you are a letter from Christ, delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of carnal hearts.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:4 @ Such is the confidence that we have through Christ toward God.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:5 @ Not that we are competent of ourselves to claim anything as coming from ourselves; but our competence is from God,

tcent@2Corinthians:3:7 @ Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the Israelites could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of its glory, fading though it was,

tcent@2Corinthians:3:10 @ For indeed what had glory, in this case has no glory because of the glory that surpasses it.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if what was fading away came with glory, much more is the glory of that which lasts.

tcent@2Corinthians:3:13 @ We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at the end of the radiance that was fading away.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:4 @ In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always carrying about in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we who live are always being given up to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:14 @ knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus and bring us with you into his presence.

tcent@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For all this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:3 @ so that when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed, but to be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:6 @ Therefore we are always of good courage; and we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord,

tcent@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We are not again commending ourselves to you, but are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you may have an answer for those who take pride in appearance and not in heart.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ controls us, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:15 @ And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.

tcent@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

tcent@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We put no stumbling block in anyone's path, so that our ministry will not be discredited.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I do not say this to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it. Though I did regret it—for I see that my letter hurt you, though only for a little while—

tcent@2Corinthians:7:9 @ now I rejoice, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow led you to repentance; for you became sorrowful as God intended, so that you suffered no loss through us.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly sorrow produces a repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but worldly sorrow produces death.

tcent@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did the wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For I testify that according to their ability, and even beyond their ability, they gave of their own free will,

tcent@2Corinthians:8:6 @ So we urged Titus that as he had previously made a beginning, he would also complete in you this work of grace.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:7 @ But as you excel in everything—in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in your love for us—see that you excel in this work of grace also.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that through his poverty you might become rich.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:11 @ Now finish the work, so that your readiness to do it may be matched by your completion of it, according to your means.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:13 @ For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened;

tcent@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but at the present time your abundance should supply their need, so that their abundance may supply your need, that there may be equality.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but he has been appointed by the churches to travel with us in this gracious work which we are carrying on, for the glory of the Lord himself and to show our good will.

tcent@2Corinthians:8:20 @ We intend that no one should blame us about this liberal gift which we are administering,

tcent@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the Macedonians, saying that Achaia has been ready since last year; and your zeal has stirred up most of them.

tcent@2Corinthians:9:3 @ But I am sending the brethren so that our boasting about you may not prove vain in this case, so that you may be ready, as I said you would be;

tcent@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I thought it necessary to urge the brethren to go on to you before me, and arrange in advance for this gift you have promised, so that it may be ready not as an exaction but as a willing gift.

tcent@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, so that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may have an abundance for every good work.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beg you that when I am present I may not have to be bold with that confidence by which I intend to be bold against some, who think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:5 @ We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ,

tcent@2Corinthians:10:7 @ You look at things as they are outwardly. If anyone is confident in himself that he is Christ's, let him consider this again within himself, that just as he is Christ’s, so also are we.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such people realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the field God has apportioned to us, a field that reaches even to you.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not go beyond limits by boasting in other men’s labors, but our hope is that as your faith grows, our sphere among you may be greatly enlarged,

tcent@2Corinthians:10:16 @ so that we can preach the gospel in the regions beyond you. For we do not want to boast of work already done in another man's territory.

tcent@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For it is not he who commends himself that is approved, but he whom the Lord commends.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:1 @ I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness; but indeed you are bearing with me.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:2 @ I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy; for I betrothed you to one husband, so that to Christ I might present you as a pure virgin.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I am afraid that just as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:5 @ I think that I am not in the least inferior to these super-apostles.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you without charge?

tcent@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I repeat, let no one think me foolish; but even if you do, receive me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To my shame, I must say that we were too weak for that! But whatever anyone else dares to boast about—I am speaking as a fool—I also dare to boast about.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:30 @ If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness.

tcent@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:3 @ And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows—

tcent@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Though if I should boast, I will not be a fool, for I will be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should depart from me.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:9 @ But he said to me, »My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.« Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:10 @ That is why, for Christ's sake, I am content in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For in what respect were you inferior to the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not become a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!

tcent@2Corinthians:12:16 @ But be that as it may, I did not burden you myself. Yet, crafty fellow that I am, I caught you by trickery!

tcent@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves before you? It is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ, and all for your upbuilding, beloved.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I am afraid that when I come I may not find you what I wish you to be, and you may not find me what you wish me to be; I fear that there may be quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, gossip, arrogance and disorder.

tcent@2Corinthians:12:21 @ I am afraid that when I come again my God will humble me before you, and I will have to mourn over many of those who sinned before and have not repented of the impurity, immorality, and lewdness which they have practiced.

tcent@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I warned those who sinned in the past and all the others, and I warn them now while absent, as I did when present the second time, that if I come again I will not spare them—

tcent@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you desire proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful in you.

tcent@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, indeed, you fail the test?

tcent@2Corinthians:13:6 @ I trust that you will realize that we have not failed the test.

tcent@2Corinthians:13:7 @ Now we pray to God that you may not do wrong—not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, even though we may seem to have failed.

tcent@2Corinthians:13:10 @ I write these things while I am absent, in order that when I come I may not have to be severe in my use of the authority which the Lord gave me for building you up, and not for tearing you down.

tcent@Galatians:1:6 @ I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you by the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel—

tcent@Galatians:1:11 @ For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.

tcent@Galatians:1:16 @ to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with flesh and blood,

tcent@Galatians:1:20 @ (Now in what I am writing to you, I assure you before God that I do not lie.)

tcent@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up because of a revelation; and I set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I did this privately to those who were of reputation, for fear that I was running or had run my race in vain.

tcent@Galatians:2:5 @ We did not yield to them even for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might remain with you.

tcent@Galatians:2:7 @ but on the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been entrusted with the gospel to the circumcised

tcent@Galatians:2:9 @ and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.

tcent@Galatians:2:10 @ All they asked was that we should continue to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.

tcent@Galatians:2:13 @ The rest of the Jews joined him in hypocrisy, with the result that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.

tcent@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in the presence of them all, »If you, being a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how is it that you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?

tcent@Galatians:2:16 @ yet who know that a man is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law, because by works of the law will no flesh be justified.

tcent@Galatians:2:19 @ For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God.

tcent@Galatians:3:7 @ Therefore, be sure that it is those who are of faith who are sons of Abraham.

tcent@Galatians:3:8 @ And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, »In you will all the nations be blessed.«

tcent@Galatians:3:11 @ Now that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, »The righteous man shall live by faith.«

tcent@Galatians:3:14 @ in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

tcent@Galatians:3:16 @ Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, »And to seeds,« as referring to many, but rather to one, »And to your seed,« that is, Christ.

tcent@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has bound everyone under sin, so that that what was promised by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

tcent@Galatians:3:24 @ So the law was our tutor to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

tcent@Galatians:3:25 @ But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

tcent@Galatians:4:1 @ I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no different from a slave, although he is the owner of all the estate;

tcent@Galatians:4:5 @ to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.

tcent@Galatians:4:9 @ But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless elemental things? Do you desire to be enslaved all over again?

tcent@Galatians:4:11 @ I fear for you, that perhaps I have labored over you in vain.

tcent@Galatians:4:13 @ you know it was because of an illness in the flesh that I preached the gospel to you at first;

tcent@Galatians:4:15 @ What has become of the satisfaction you felt? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.

tcent@Galatians:4:17 @ They seek you, but for no good purpose; they want to shut you out, so that you may seek them.

tcent@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave and one by the free woman.

tcent@Galatians:4:29 @ But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now.

tcent@Galatians:5:1 @ It was for freedom that Christ has set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.

tcent@Galatians:5:2 @ Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you.

tcent@Galatians:5:3 @ I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is under obligation to keep the whole Law.

tcent@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and the one who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

tcent@Galatians:5:11 @ But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been abolished.

tcent@Galatians:5:12 @ I wish that those who are troubling you would mutilate themselves!

tcent@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.

tcent@Galatians:5:17 @ For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, so that you may not do what you would.

tcent@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

tcent@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, even if anyone is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted.

tcent@Galatians:6:7 @ Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

tcent@Galatians:6:12 @ Those who want to make a good showing in the flesh try to compel you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

tcent@Galatians:6:13 @ For those who are circumcised do not even keep the Law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised so that they may boast in your flesh.

tcent@Galatians:6:14 @ But may it never be that I would boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

tcent@Ephesians:1:4 @ just as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before him. In love

tcent@Ephesians:1:12 @ in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, would be for the praise of his glory.

tcent@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him.

tcent@Ephesians:1:18 @ I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,

tcent@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.

tcent@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

tcent@Ephesians:2:7 @ so that in the coming ages he might show the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

tcent@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we would walk in them.

tcent@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called »Uncircumcision« by the so-called »Circumcision,« which is performed in the flesh by human hands—

tcent@Ephesians:2:12 @ remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

tcent@Ephesians:2:15 @ by abolishing in his flesh the hostility, which is the Law of commandments and ordinances, so that he might create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace,

tcent@Ephesians:3:2 @ assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for you,

tcent@Ephesians:3:3 @ that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly.

tcent@Ephesians:3:6 @ that is, how the Gentiles are fellow heirs and members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

tcent@Ephesians:3:10 @ so that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places.

tcent@Ephesians:3:16 @ that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner man,

tcent@Ephesians:3:17 @ so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

tcent@Ephesians:3:19 @ and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

tcent@Ephesians:3:20 @ Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us,

tcent@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call,

tcent@Ephesians:4:9 @ (In saying, »He ascended,« what does it mean except that he had also descended into the lower parts of the earth?

tcent@Ephesians:4:10 @ He who descended is also he who ascended far above all the heavens, so that he might fill all things.)

tcent@Ephesians:4:17 @ Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds,

tcent@Ephesians:4:18 @ they are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to the hardness of their heart;

tcent@Ephesians:4:21 @ assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus.

tcent@Ephesians:4:28 @ He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but rather must labor, doing useful work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with those in need.

tcent@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building others up according to the need of the moment, that it may impart grace to those who hear.

tcent@Ephesians:5:5 @ For of this you can be sure, that no immoral, impure, or covetous person—such a man is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

tcent@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of the things that they do in secret.

tcent@Ephesians:5:13 @ But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.

tcent@Ephesians:5:18 @ And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit,

tcent@Ephesians:5:26 @ that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,

tcent@Ephesians:5:27 @ that he might present the church to himself in all her glory, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and blameless.

tcent@Ephesians:5:32 @ This is a profound mystery; but I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church.

tcent@Ephesians:5:33 @ However, each one of you must also love his wife as himself, and the wife must see that she respects her husband.

tcent@Ephesians:6:11 @ Put on the full armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

tcent@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.

tcent@Ephesians:6:19 @ and also pray for me, that in the opening of my mouth, utterance may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel,

tcent@Ephesians:6:20 @ for which I am an ambassador in chains; that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.

tcent@Ephesians:6:21 @ Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will tell you everything, so that you also may know how I am and what I am doing.

tcent@Ephesians:6:22 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage your hearts.

tcent@Philippians:1:6 @ For I am confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

tcent@Philippians:1:9 @ And this is my prayer, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment,

tcent@Philippians:1:10 @ so that you may approve what is excellent, and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ;

tcent@Philippians:1:12 @ Now I want you to know, brethren, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel,

tcent@Philippians:1:13 @ so that my imprisonment for Christ has become well known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to everyone else,

tcent@Philippians:1:14 @ and that most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, have been encouraged to speak the word of God without fear.

tcent@Philippians:1:16 @ The latter do it out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel;

tcent@Philippians:1:18 @ What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in this I rejoice. Yes, and I will rejoice,

tcent@Philippians:1:19 @ for I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance,

tcent@Philippians:1:20 @ as it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be ashamed in anything, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.

tcent@Philippians:1:23 @ I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better;

tcent@Philippians:1:25 @ Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,

tcent@Philippians:1:26 @ so that your proud confidence in me may abound in Christ Jesus through my coming to you again.

tcent@Philippians:1:27 @ Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or remain absent, I will hear of you that you stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel,

tcent@Philippians:1:28 @ in no way frightened by your opponents. This is a sign of destruction to them, but of salvation for you – and that too, from God.

tcent@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

tcent@Philippians:2:11 @ and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

tcent@Philippians:2:15 @ so that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

tcent@Philippians:2:16 @ holding fast the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I may be proud that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.

tcent@Philippians:2:19 @ I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered when I receive news of you.

tcent@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know that he has proved his worth, because as a son with his father he has served with me in the work of the gospel.

tcent@Philippians:2:24 @ and I trust in the Lord that shortly I myself will come also.

tcent@Philippians:2:26 @ for he was longing for you all and was distressed because you had heard that he was ill.

tcent@Philippians:2:28 @ Therefore I am all the more eager to send him, so that when you see him again you may rejoice and I may have less anxiety.

tcent@Philippians:3:8 @ More than that, I count everything to be loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ

tcent@Philippians:3:11 @ in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

tcent@Philippians:3:12 @ Not that I have already obtained this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.

tcent@Philippians:3:15 @ Let those of us who are mature have this attitude; and if in anything you have a different attitude, God will reveal that also to you.

tcent@Philippians:3:21 @ who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.

tcent@Philippians:4:10 @ I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at last you have revived your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned before, but you had no opportunity.

tcent@Philippians:4:11 @ Not that I speak from want, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.

tcent@Philippians:4:15 @ You yourselves also know, Philippians, that in the first preaching of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving except you only;

tcent@Philippians:4:17 @ Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit which increases to your account.

tcent@Colossians:1:9 @ For this reason also, since the day we heard it, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

tcent@Colossians:1:10 @ so that you will live a life worthy of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.

tcent@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ For we know, brethren beloved by God, that he has chosen you;

tcent@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia.

tcent@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For not only has the word of the Lord sounded forth from you in Macedonia and Achaia, but your faith in God has gone forth everywhere, so that we have no need to say anything.

tcent@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For you remember our labor and toil, brethren; we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, while we preached to you the gospel of God.

tcent@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you who believe.

tcent@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ so that no one would be unsettled by these afflictions. You yourselves know that we have been destined for this.

tcent@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For indeed when we were with you, we kept telling you in advance that we were going to suffer affliction; and so it came to pass, as you know.

tcent@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could endure it no longer, I also sent to find out about your faith, for fear that the tempter might have tempted you, and our labor would be in vain.

tcent@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us the good news of your faith and love and reported that you always remember us kindly and long to see us, just as we long to see you—

tcent@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that he may establish your hearts without blame in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

tcent@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ Finally, brethren, we request and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more.

tcent@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that is, that you should abstain from sexual immorality;

tcent@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ that each one of you know how to take his own spouse for himself in holiness and honor,

tcent@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ and that no man transgress and wrong his brother in this matter because the Lord is the avenger in all these things, just as we also told you before and solemnly warned you.

tcent@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ But we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope.

tcent@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.

tcent@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.

tcent@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

tcent@Hebrews:2:9 @ But we see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.

tcent@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it was fitting that he, for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering.

tcent@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both he who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

tcent@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same nature, that through death he might destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

tcent@Hebrews:2:16 @ For surely it is not with angels that he is concerned, but with the descendants of Abraham.

tcent@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore he had to be made like his brethren in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.

tcent@Hebrews:3:5 @ Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,

tcent@Hebrews:3:13 @ But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called »Today,« so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

tcent@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear that they would never enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?

tcent@Hebrews:3:19 @ So we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.

tcent@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.

tcent@Hebrews:4:11 @ Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same example of disobedience.

tcent@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

tcent@Hebrews:6:7 @ For land which drinks the rain that often falls upon it, and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God.

tcent@Hebrews:6:9 @ Even though we speak like this, beloved, we are confident of better things in your case, things that accompany salvation.

tcent@Hebrews:6:12 @ so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

tcent@Hebrews:6:18 @ so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us.

tcent@Hebrews:6:19 @ We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner sanctuary behind the curtain,

tcent@Hebrews:7:2 @ And to him Abraham gave a tenth part of everything. He is first, by translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then he is also king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

tcent@Hebrews:7:5 @ And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take a tenth from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these also are descended from Abraham.

tcent@Hebrews:7:8 @ In this case tithes are received by mortal men, but in that case by one of whom it is witnessed that he lives on.

tcent@Hebrews:7:9 @ One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham,

tcent@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

tcent@Hebrews:7:26 @ For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless, unstained, separated from sinners, exalted above the heavens.

tcent@Hebrews:8:5 @ They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary; for when Moses was about to erect the tabernacle, he was instructed by God, saying, »See that you make everything according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.«

tcent@Hebrews:8:7 @ For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no place sought for a second.

tcent@Hebrews:9:4 @ having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, which contained a golden jar holding the manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;

tcent@Hebrews:9:8 @ The Holy Spirit was showing by this that the way into the holy place had not yet been disclosed as long as the outer tabernacle was still standing.

tcent@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, he entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation.

tcent@Hebrews:9:15 @ For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.

tcent@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor was it that he should offer himself again and again, as the high priest enters the holy place year by year with blood not his own.

tcent@Hebrews:9:27 @ And just as it is appointed for men to die once, and after that comes judgment,

tcent@Hebrews:10:10 @ And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

tcent@Hebrews:10:13 @ waiting from that time until his enemies be made a stool for his feet.

tcent@Hebrews:10:20 @ by a new and living way which he opened for us through the curtain, that is, his flesh,

tcent@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you had compassion on the prisoners, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one.

tcent@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.

tcent@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that the world was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.

tcent@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God had taken him. For before he was taken he was attested as having pleased God.

tcent@Hebrews:11:6 @ And without faith it is impossible to please God, for anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

tcent@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and greeted them from a distance, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

tcent@Hebrews:11:14 @ For people who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.

tcent@Hebrews:11:15 @ And if they had been thinking of that country from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return.

tcent@Hebrews:11:16 @ But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

tcent@Hebrews:11:19 @ He considered that God was able to raise men even from the dead; from which, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.

tcent@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received back their dead, raised to life again. Others were tortured and refused to be released, so that they might gain a better resurrection.

tcent@Hebrews:11:40 @ because God had provided something better for us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect.

tcent@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

tcent@Hebrews:12:2 @ fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

tcent@Hebrews:12:3 @ Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary and lose heart.

tcent@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you endure. God is treating you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

tcent@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.

tcent@Hebrews:12:13 @ and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint, but rather be healed.

tcent@Hebrews:12:15 @ See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root of bitterness spring up and cause trouble, and by it many become defiled;

tcent@Hebrews:12:16 @ that no one be immoral or godless like Esau, who sold his own birthright for a single meal.

tcent@Hebrews:12:17 @ For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.

tcent@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you have not come to a mountain that can be touched and to a blazing fire, and to darkness and gloom and whirlwind,

tcent@Hebrews:12:19 @ and the blast of a trumpet, and the sound of a voice whose words made the hearers beg that no further word be spoken to them.

tcent@Hebrews:12:20 @ For they could not endure the order that was given, »If even a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned.«

tcent@Hebrews:12:21 @ The sight was so terrifying that Moses said, »I am trembling with fear.«

tcent@Hebrews:12:24 @ and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks better than the blood of Abel.

tcent@Hebrews:12:25 @ See to it that you do not refuse him who is speaking. For if they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less shall we escape, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven?

tcent@Hebrews:12:27 @ This phrase, »Yet once more,« indicates the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, in order that what cannot be shaken may remain.

tcent@Hebrews:12:28 @ Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and offer to God acceptable worship with reverence and awe,

tcent@Hebrews:13:15 @ Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

tcent@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as men who will have to give account. Let them do this with joy, and not with grief, for that would be of no advantage to you.

tcent@Hebrews:13:18 @ Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.

tcent@Hebrews:13:19 @ I urge you all the more to do this so that I may be restored to you the sooner.

tcent@Hebrews:13:20 @ Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the eternal covenant,

tcent@Hebrews:13:21 @ equip you with every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

tcent@Hebrews:13:23 @ You should know that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I will see you if he comes soon.

tcent@James:1:3 @ for you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

tcent@James:1:4 @ And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

tcent@James:1:6 @ But he must ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

tcent@James:1:7 @ For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord,

tcent@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, for when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

tcent@James:1:18 @ Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

tcent@James:1:25 @ But one who looks intently into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but a doer that acts, this man will be blessed in what he does.

tcent@James:1:27 @ Religion that is pure and undefiled in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

tcent@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, »Go in peace, be warmed and filled,« and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?

tcent@James:2:19 @ You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder.

tcent@James:2:20 @ But are you willing to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is useless?

tcent@James:2:22 @ You see that faith was working with his works, and faith was completed by works,

tcent@James:2:24 @ You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

tcent@James:3:1 @ Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.

tcent@James:3:3 @ If we put bits into the mouths of horses that they may obey us, we guide their whole bodies.

tcent@James:4:1 @ What causes quarrels and fights among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members?

tcent@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.

tcent@James:4:4 @ You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

tcent@James:4:5 @ Or do you think that the Scripture says without reason: »He jealously desires the Spirit which he has made to dwell in us«?

tcent@James:4:14 @ Yet you do not know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.

tcent@James:4:15 @ Instead, you ought to say, »If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that

tcent@James:5:1 @ Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you.

tcent@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble, brethren, against one another, that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door.

tcent@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath, but let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation.

tcent@James:5:16 @ Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

tcent@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.

tcent@James:5:20 @ let him know that whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

tcent@1Peter:1:7 @ so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

tcent@1Peter:1:10 @ As to this salvation, the prophets who prophesied of the grace that would come to you inquired and searched carefully,

tcent@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves, but you, in these things which now have been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things into which angels long to look.

tcent@1Peter:1:18 @ You know that you were redeemed from the futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold,

tcent@1Peter:1:19 @ but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.

tcent@1Peter:1:21 @ Through him you have confidence in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

tcent@1Peter:2:2 @ Like newborn babes, long for the pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,

tcent@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

tcent@1Peter:2:12 @ Maintain good conduct among the Gentiles, so that in case they speak against you as wrongdoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

tcent@1Peter:2:15 @ For it is God's will that by doing right you should silence the ignorance of foolish men.

tcent@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

tcent@1Peter:2:24 @ He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sin and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.

tcent@1Peter:3:1 @ You wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without a word by the behavior of their wives,

tcent@1Peter:3:7 @ Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with honor as the weaker partner, since you are joint heirs of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.

tcent@1Peter:3:9 @ Do not return evil for evil or insult for insult, but give a blessing instead; for to this you were called, that you may inherit a blessing.

tcent@1Peter:3:15 @ but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and respect;

tcent@1Peter:3:16 @ and keep a clear conscience, so that, when you are abused, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.

tcent@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is better to suffer for doing right, if that should be God's will, than for doing wrong.

tcent@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ also died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit;

tcent@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly did not obey, when the patience of God waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

tcent@1Peter:3:21 @ And corresponding to that, baptism now saves you—not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience—through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

tcent@1Peter:4:4 @ In all this, they are surprised that you do not run with them into the same flood of dissipation, and they abuse you;

tcent@1Peter:4:6 @ For this reason the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though they are judged in the flesh as men, they might live in the spirit according to the will of God.

tcent@1Peter:4:11 @ Whoever speaks is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belongs the glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

tcent@1Peter:4:13 @ But rejoice that you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may also be overjoyed when his glory is revealed.

tcent@1Peter:4:16 @ yet if one suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but under that name let him glorify God.

tcent@1Peter:5:1 @ So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ and a partaker in the glory that is to be revealed,

tcent@1Peter:5:2 @ shepherd the flock of God that is under your care, serving as overseers—not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness;

tcent@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise you that are younger men be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for

tcent@1Peter:5:6 @ Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.

tcent@1Peter:5:9 @ But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren throughout the world.

tcent@1Peter:5:12 @ With the help of Silvanus, a faithful brother as I regard him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting you and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand fast in it.

tcent@2Peter:1:4 @ By these he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may escape from the corruption that is in the world because of lust, and become partakers of the divine nature.

tcent@2Peter:1:9 @ For whoever lacks these things is blind and shortsighted, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.

tcent@2Peter:1:14 @ since I know that the putting aside of my body will be soon, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.

tcent@2Peter:1:15 @ And I will see to it that after my departure you will be able at any time to call these things to mind.

tcent@2Peter:1:20 @ First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,

tcent@2Peter:2:8 @ (for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds),

tcent@2Peter:2:14 @ They have eyes full of adultery, that never cease from sin; they entice unstable souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!

tcent@2Peter:2:19 @ They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of corruption; for whatever overcomes a man, to that he is enslaved.

tcent@2Peter:3:1 @ This is now the second letter that I have written to you, beloved, and in both of them I have aroused your sincere mind by way of reminder;

tcent@2Peter:3:2 @ that you should remember the words spoken beforehand by the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior spoken through your apostles.

tcent@2Peter:3:3 @ First of all you must understand this, that scoffers will come in the last days, with scoffing, following their own lusts

tcent@2Peter:3:5 @ They deliberately ignore this fact, that by the word of God heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and by means of water,

tcent@2Peter:3:6 @ through which the world at that time was destroyed, being deluged with water.

tcent@2Peter:3:8 @ But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.

tcent@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with fire, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

tcent@2Peter:3:16 @ He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

tcent@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your own steadfastness.

tcent@1John:1:1 @ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have touched, concerning the Word of life—

tcent@1John:1:3 @ that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you may have fellowship with us; and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

tcent@1John:1:4 @ And we write this that our joy may be complete.

tcent@1John:1:5 @ This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you, that God is light and in him is no darkness at all.

tcent@1John:1:10 @ If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

tcent@1John:2:1 @ My little children, I write this to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

tcent@1John:2:3 @ Now by this we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

tcent@1John:2:5 @ But whoever keeps his word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in him:

tcent@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment that you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word that you have heard.

tcent@1John:2:16 @ For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

tcent@1John:2:18 @ Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come; by this we know that it is the last hour.

tcent@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that it might be plain that none of them were of us.

tcent@1John:2:22 @ Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.

tcent@1John:2:24 @ Let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.

tcent@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which you have received from him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as his anointing teaches you about all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, abide in him.

tcent@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

tcent@1John:2:29 @ If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who does right is born of him.

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

tcent@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

tcent@1John:3:5 @ And you know that he appeared to take away our sins, and in him there is no sin.

tcent@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another,

tcent@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love abides in death.

tcent@1John:3:15 @ Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

tcent@1John:3:16 @ By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

tcent@1John:3:19 @ By this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him

tcent@1John:3:23 @ And this is his commandment: that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as he has commanded us.

tcent@1John:3:24 @ Now those who keep his commandments abide in him, and he in them. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us.

tcent@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: every Spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

tcent@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit which does not confess Jesus is not of God. This is the spirit of the Antichrist, of which you have heard that it was coming, and now it is in the world already.

tcent@1John:4:9 @ In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.

tcent@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.

tcent@1John:4:13 @ By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

tcent@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son as the Savior of the world.

tcent@1John:4:15 @ Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.

tcent@1John:4:17 @ In this love is perfected among us, that we may have confidence for the Day of Judgment, because as he is so are we in this world.

tcent@1John:4:21 @ And this commandment we have from him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

tcent@1John:5:1 @ Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the parent loves the child.

tcent@1John:5:2 @ By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments.

tcent@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.

tcent@1John:5:4 @ For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

tcent@1John:5:5 @ Who is it that overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

tcent@1John:5:10 @ He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given of his Son.

tcent@1John:5:11 @ And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

tcent@1John:5:13 @ I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
