tcent@Matthew:1:20 @ But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, »Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

tcent@Matthew:2:8 @ And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, »Go and search diligently for the young child, and when you have found him, bring back word to me, so that I too may come and worship him.«

tcent@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, was in a furious rage, and he sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all its region who were two years old or under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men.

tcent@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee,

tcent@Matthew:2:23 @ and he went and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that what was spoken by the Prophets might be fulfilled, »He shall be called a Nazarene.«

tcent@Matthew:3:9 @ and do not think to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

tcent@Matthew:3:10 @ Even now the ax is laid at the root of the trees, and every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

tcent@Matthew:4:12 @ Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, he withdrew to Galilee.

tcent@Matthew:4:14 @ that what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:

tcent@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to preach and say, »Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.«

tcent@Matthew:5:16 @ Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:5:17 @ »Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

tcent@Matthew:5:20 @ For I tell you, that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

tcent@Matthew:5:21 @ »You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’

tcent@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that anyone who is angry with his brother shall be subject to judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ shall be answerable to the council. But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of the fire of hell.

tcent@Matthew:5:23 @ Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,

tcent@Matthew:5:27 @ »You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’

tcent@Matthew:5:28 @ But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

tcent@Matthew:5:32 @ But I say to you that every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, causes her to become an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

tcent@Matthew:5:33 @ »Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.’

tcent@Matthew:5:38 @ »You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’

tcent@Matthew:5:43 @ »You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’

tcent@Matthew:5:45 @ that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

tcent@Matthew:6:1 @ »Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:6:2 @ »Thus, when you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

tcent@Matthew:6:4 @ so that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

tcent@Matthew:6:5 @ »And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

tcent@Matthew:6:7 @ And when you pray, do not use empty repetitions as the Gentiles do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.

tcent@Matthew:6:16 @ »And when you fast, do not look gloomy, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

tcent@Matthew:6:18 @ so that you do not appear to be fasting to men, but to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

tcent@Matthew:6:23 @ But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

tcent@Matthew:6:29 @ yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

tcent@Matthew:6:32 @ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.

tcent@Matthew:7:1 @ »Judge not, that you be not judged.

tcent@Matthew:7:12 @ So whatever you wish that men would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

tcent@Matthew:7:13 @ »Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide, and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter by it.

tcent@Matthew:7:14 @ For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and few are those who find it.

tcent@Matthew:7:19 @ Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

tcent@Matthew:7:22 @ On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’

tcent@Matthew:7:25 @ And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.

tcent@Matthew:7:27 @ and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell. And great was its fall.«

tcent@Matthew:8:4 @ And Jesus said to him, »See that you tell no one; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.«

tcent@Matthew:8:11 @ I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

tcent@Matthew:8:13 @ Then to the centurion Jesus said, »Go; be it done for you as you have believed.« And his servant was healed at that very hour.

tcent@Matthew:8:24 @ And behold, a great storm arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But he was asleep.

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:9:22 @ Jesus turned, and when he saw her he said, »Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well.« And the woman was made well from that moment.

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

tcent@Matthew:9:28 @ When he had entered the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, »Do you believe that I am able to do this?« They said to him, »Yes, Lord.«

tcent@Matthew:9:30 @ And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, »See that no one knows it.«

tcent@Matthew:9:31 @ But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region.

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

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

tcent@Matthew:10:19 @ But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour;

tcent@Matthew:10:26 @ »So do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.

tcent@Matthew:10:34 @ »Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

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

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:12:6 @ I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.

tcent@Matthew:12:10 @ And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. And they asked him, »Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?« so that they might accuse him.

tcent@Matthew:12:22 @ Then they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute, and he healed him, so that the mute man both spoke and saw.

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

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:13:2 @ And great crowds gathered around him, so that he got into a boat and sat there; and the whole crowd stood on the shore.

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

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

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:13:54 @ And coming to his own country he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, »Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?

tcent@Matthew:14:1 @ At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus,

tcent@Matthew:14:2 @ and he said to his servants, »This is John the Baptist, he has risen from the dead; that is why these powers are at work in him.«

tcent@Matthew:14:7 @ so that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:15:5 @ But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever help you might have received from me is a gift to God’

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

tcent@Matthew:15:17 @ Do you not yet see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and is eliminated?

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

tcent@Matthew:15:27 @ »Yes, Lord,« she said, »yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.«

tcent@Matthew:15:28 @ Then Jesus answered her, »O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.« And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

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

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

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:16:15 @ He said to them, »But who do you say that I am?«

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

tcent@Matthew:16:20 @ Then he strictly charged his disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.

tcent@Matthew:16:21 @ From that time Jesus began to show to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised on the third day.

tcent@Matthew:17:10 @ And the disciples asked him, »Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?«

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:18:13 @ And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices more over that sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:18:25 @ And as he was not able to pay, his master ordered that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made.

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

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

tcent@Matthew:18:31 @ When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and went and told their master all that had happened.

tcent@Matthew:18:32 @ Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.

tcent@Matthew:19:4 @ And he answered them, »Have you not read that he who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’

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

tcent@Matthew:19:13 @ Then little children were brought to him that he might put his hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them.

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

tcent@Matthew:20:22 @ But Jesus answered, »You do not know what you are asking for. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?« They said to him, »We are able.«

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

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

tcent@Matthew:21:9 @ The crowds that went before him and those that followed shouted,

tcent@Matthew:21:15 @ But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying out in the temple, »Hosanna to the Son of David!« they were indignant;

tcent@Matthew:21:26 @ But if we say, ‘From men,’ we are afraid of the multitude; for all hold that John was a prophet.«

tcent@Matthew:21:45 @ When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he was speaking about them.

tcent@Matthew:22:16 @ And they sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, »Teacher, we know that you are true, and teach the way of God in truth, and you care for no man; for you do not regard the position of men.

tcent@Matthew:22:21 @ They said, »Caesar’s.« Then he said to them, »Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.«

tcent@Matthew:22:23 @ That same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him and asked him a question,

tcent@Matthew:22:24 @ saying, »Teacher, Moses said that if a man dies, having no children, his brother must marry the widow, and raise up children for his brother.

tcent@Matthew:22:34 @ But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together.

tcent@Matthew:22:43 @ He said to them, »How is it then that David, inspired by the Spirit, calls him ‘Lord’, saying,

tcent@Matthew:22:46 @ And no one was able to answer him a word, nor from that day did any one dare to ask him any more questions.

tcent@Matthew:23:17 @ You blind fools! For which is greater, the gold or the temple that has made the gold sacred?

tcent@Matthew:23:18 @ And you say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gift that is on it, he is bound by his oath.’

tcent@Matthew:23:19 @ You blind men! For which is greater, the gift or the altar that makes the gift sacred?

tcent@Matthew:23:26 @ Blind Pharisee! First cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.

tcent@Matthew:23:31 @ Thus you witness against yourselves, that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets.

tcent@Matthew:23:35 @ that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.

tcent@Matthew:24:2 @ But he answered them, »You see all these things, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down.«

tcent@Matthew:24:4 @ And Jesus answered them: »Take heed that no one deceives you.

tcent@Matthew:24:6 @ And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

tcent@Matthew:24:20 @ Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath.

tcent@Matthew:24:32 @ »Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near.

tcent@Matthew:24:33 @ So also, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door.

tcent@Matthew:24:36 @ »But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.

tcent@Matthew:24:38 @ For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,

tcent@Matthew:24:43 @ But know this, that if the owner of the house had known at what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched and would not have let his house be broken into.

tcent@Matthew:24:46 @ Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing.

tcent@Matthew:24:48 @ But if that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’

tcent@Matthew:24:50 @ the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of,

tcent@Matthew:25:26 @ But his master answered him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed?

tcent@Matthew:26:2 @ »You know that after two days is the Passover, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.«

tcent@Matthew:26:16 @ And from that moment he sought an opportunity to betray him.

tcent@Matthew:26:24 @ The Son of Man goes just as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born.«

tcent@Matthew:26:29 @ I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.«

tcent@Matthew:26:41 @ Watch and pray, so that you will not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.«

tcent@Matthew:26:53 @ Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels?

tcent@Matthew:26:54 @ But how then could the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must happen in this way?«

tcent@Matthew:26:55 @ At that hour Jesus said to the crowds, »Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? Every day I sat in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me.

tcent@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this has taken place, that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.« Then all the disciples forsook him and fled.

tcent@Matthew:26:59 @ Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus that they might put him to death,

tcent@Matthew:26:62 @ And the high priest stood up and said, »Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?«

tcent@Matthew:27:3 @ When Judas, his betrayer, saw that he was condemned, he repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders,

tcent@Matthew:27:4 @ saying, »I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.« And they said, »What is that to us? You see to it!«

tcent@Matthew:27:8 @ Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day.

tcent@Matthew:27:14 @ But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge; so that the governor wondered greatly.

tcent@Matthew:27:16 @ And at that time they had a notorious prisoner, called Barabbas.

tcent@Matthew:27:18 @ For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed him over.

tcent@Matthew:27:19 @ While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, »Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered greatly today in a dream because of him.«

tcent@Matthew:27:24 @ When Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was starting, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, »I am innocent of this man’s blood. See to it yourselves.«

tcent@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, »Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?« that is, »My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?«

tcent@Matthew:27:54 @ So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they were terrified, and said, »Truly this was the Son of God!«

tcent@Matthew:27:63 @ and said, »Sir, we remember how that deceiver said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days I will rise again.’

tcent@Matthew:27:64 @ Therefore order that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ So the last deception will be worse than the first.«

tcent@Matthew:28:5 @ But the angel said to the women, »Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.

tcent@Matthew:28:7 @ Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead. And behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. Behold, I have told you.«

tcent@Matthew:28:11 @ Now while they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and reported to the chief priests all the things that had happened.

tcent@Matthew:28:20 @ teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.«

tcent@Mark:1:27 @ And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, »What is this? A new teaching! With authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.«

tcent@Mark:1:38 @ And he said to them, »Let us go on to the next towns, so I may preach there also; for that is why I have come.«

tcent@Mark:1:44 @ and he said to him, »See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.«

tcent@Mark:1:45 @ But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was outside in the deserted places; and people came to him from every quarter.

tcent@Mark:2:1 @ And when he entered Capernaum after some days, it was heard that he was home.

tcent@Luke:13:4 @ Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all the others who dwelt in Jerusalem?

tcent@Luke:13:17 @ When he said this, all his adversaries were put to shame; and all the people rejoiced at all the glorious things that were done by him.

tcent@Luke:13:31 @ At that very time some Pharisees came, and said to him, »Get away from here, for Herod wants to kill you.«

tcent@Luke:13:32 @ And he said to them, »Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I finish my course.’

tcent@Luke:13:33 @ Nevertheless I must journey today and tomorrow, and the day following; for it cannot be that a prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.

tcent@Luke:14:5 @ Then he said to them, »Which of you, having a son or an ox that has fallen into a well, will not immediately pull him out on the Sabbath day?«

tcent@Luke:14:10 @ But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when your host comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you.

tcent@Luke:14:23 @ Then the master said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

tcent@Luke:14:33 @ So likewise, whoever of you does not give up all that he has cannot be my disciple.

tcent@Luke:15:7 @ I tell you that in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

tcent@Luke:15:12 @ And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of property that falls to me.’ So he divided his living between them.

tcent@Luke:15:14 @ And when he had spent everything, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in want.

tcent@Luke:15:15 @ So he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed swine.

tcent@Luke:15:16 @ And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything.

tcent@Luke:15:29 @ But he answered his father, ‘Behold, these many years I have been serving you, and I never disobeyed your command; yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends.

tcent@Luke:15:31 @ And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours.

tcent@Luke:15:32 @ It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for this your brother was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.’«

tcent@Luke:16:1 @ He also said to his disciples: »There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him that this man was wasting his goods.

tcent@Luke:16:4 @ I have decided what to do, so that people may receive me into their houses when I am put out of the stewardship.’

tcent@Luke:16:9 @ And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it fails, they may receive you into the eternal dwellings.

tcent@Luke:16:16 @ The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the good news of the kingdom of God is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.

tcent@Luke:16:25 @ But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and Lazarus received evil things; but now he is comforted here and you are in agony.

tcent@Luke:16:26 @ And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’

tcent@Luke:16:28 @ for I have five brothers, so that he may warn them, lest they also come to this place of torment.’

tcent@Luke:17:1 @ Then he said to his disciples, »Things that cause people to sin are bound to come, but woe to him through whom they do come!

tcent@Luke:17:2 @ It would be better for him if a millstone were hung round his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.

tcent@Luke:17:10 @ So you also, when you have done all that is commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.’«

tcent@Luke:17:15 @ Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice;

tcent@Luke:17:31 @ On that day, let him who is on the housetop, with his goods in the house, not come down to take them away. And likewise let him who is in the field not turn back.

tcent@Luke:17:34 @ I tell you, on that night there will be two in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.

tcent@Luke:18:1 @ Then he told them a parable, to show that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.

tcent@Luke:18:3 @ And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.’

tcent@Luke:18:8 @ I tell you that he will bring about justice for them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?«

tcent@Luke:18:9 @ Also he told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:

tcent@Luke:18:11 @ The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.

tcent@Luke:18:12 @ I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.’

tcent@Luke:18:15 @ Now they were also bringing infants to him that he might touch them; but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

tcent@Luke:18:22 @ When Jesus heard it, he said to him, »One thing you still lack. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.«

tcent@Luke:18:31 @ Then he took the twelve aside and said to them, »Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written of the Son of Man by the prophets will be accomplished.

tcent@Luke:19:4 @ So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way.

tcent@Luke:19:11 @ As they heard these things, he went on to tell a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God was to appear immediately.

tcent@Luke:19:15 @ And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by trading.

tcent@Luke:19:22 @ He said to him, ‘I will judge you out of your own mouth, you wicked servant! You knew that I was a hard man, taking up what I did not lay down and reaping what I did not sow?

tcent@Luke:19:23 @ Why then did you not put my money in the bank, that at my coming I might have collected it with interest?’

tcent@Luke:19:26 @ ‘I tell you, that to every one who has will more be given; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.

tcent@Luke:19:29 @ When he came near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples,

tcent@Luke:19:42 @ saying, »If you had known, even you, this day, the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.

tcent@Luke:20:2 @ and said to him, »Tell us by what authority are you doing these things? Or who it is that gave you this authority.«

tcent@Luke:20:6 @ But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.«

tcent@Luke:20:7 @ So they answered that they did not know where it was from.

tcent@Luke:20:10 @ At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants, that they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed.

tcent@Luke:20:14 @ But when the tenants saw him, they reasoned among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’

tcent@Luke:20:17 @ But he looked at them and said, »What then is this that is written:

tcent@Luke:20:18 @ Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.«

tcent@Luke:20:19 @ The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them.

tcent@Luke:20:20 @ So they watched him, and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, that they might catch him on what he said, in order to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.

tcent@Luke:20:21 @ And they asked him, »Teacher, we know that you speak and teach rightly, and you do not show partiality, but teach the way of God in truth.

tcent@Luke:20:25 @ He said to them, »Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.«

tcent@Luke:20:28 @ and they questioned him, »Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies, having a wife but no children, the man must take the wife and raise up children for his brother.

tcent@Luke:20:35 @ But those who are considered worthy to attain that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage,

tcent@Luke:20:37 @ But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.’

tcent@Luke:20:41 @ And he said to them, »How can they say that the Christ is the Son of David?

tcent@Luke:21:4 @ for these all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had to live on.«

tcent@Luke:21:6 @ »As for these things which you see, the days will come when there shall not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.«

tcent@Luke:21:8 @ And he said: »Take heed that you not are deceived. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not go after them.

tcent@Luke:21:20 @ »But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near.

tcent@Luke:21:22 @ For these are days of vengeance, to fulfil all that is written.

tcent@Luke:21:30 @ When they are sprouting, you see and know for yourselves that summer is already near.

tcent@Luke:21:31 @ So you also, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near.

tcent@Luke:21:34 @ »But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly like a trap.

tcent@Luke:21:36 @ Watch at all times, and pray always that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.«

tcent@Luke:22:8 @ So he sent Peter and John, saying, »Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.«

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

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

tcent@Luke:22:31 @ »Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat.

tcent@Luke:22:32 @ But I have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail; and when you have turned again, strengthen your brethren.«

tcent@Luke:22:34 @ He said, »I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day before you deny three times that you know me.«

tcent@Luke:22:37 @ For I tell you that this scripture must be fulfilled in me, ‘And he was numbered with transgressors’; for what is written about me has its fulfillment.«

tcent@Luke:22:40 @ When he came to the place, he said to them, »Pray that you may not enter into temptation.«

tcent@Luke:22:46 @ He said to them, »Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.«

tcent@Luke:23:2 @ And they began to accuse him, saying, »We found this man perverting our nation and forbidding to pay taxes to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ, a king.«

tcent@Luke:23:7 @ And when he learned that he belonged to Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who also was in Jerusalem at that time.

tcent@Luke:23:12 @ That very day Pilate and Herod became friends with each other, for before this they had been at enmity with each other.

tcent@Luke:23:23 @ But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices that he be crucified. And their voices prevailed.

tcent@Luke:23:24 @ So Pilate gave sentence that their demand should be granted.

tcent@Luke:23:29 @ For behold, the days are coming when they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed!’

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

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

tcent@Luke:24:14 @ And they were talking with each other about all these things that had happened.

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

tcent@Luke:24:21 @ But we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, it is the third day since all this happened.

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

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

tcent@Luke:24:33 @ So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

tcent@Luke:24:37 @ But they were startled and frightened, and supposed that they saw a spirit.

tcent@Luke:24:39 @ See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Handle me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have.«

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

tcent@Luke:24:46 @ And he said to them, »Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and rise again from the dead the third day,

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

tcent@John:1:3 @ All things were made through him, and without him nothing was made that was made.

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

tcent@John:1:9 @ The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world.

tcent@John:1:31 @ I myself did not know him; but for this I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel.«

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

tcent@John:1:39 @ He said to them, »Come and see.« They came and saw where he was staying; and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

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

tcent@John:2:17 @ His disciples remembered that it was written, »Zeal for your house will consume me.«

tcent@John:2:22 @ When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

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

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

tcent@John:3:7 @ Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’

tcent@John:3:15 @ that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

tcent@John:3:16 @ For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

tcent@John:3:17 @ For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved.

tcent@John:3:19 @ And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

tcent@John:3:21 @ But he who does the truth comes to the light, that it may be clearly seen that his deeds have been done in God.«

tcent@John:3:28 @ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but I have been sent before him.

tcent@John:3:33 @ He who has received his testimony has certified that God is true.

tcent@John:4:1 @ Now when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

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

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

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

tcent@John:4:11 @ The woman said to him, »Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water?

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

tcent@John:4:15 @ The woman said to him, »Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.«

tcent@John:4:19 @ The woman said to him, »Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

tcent@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.«

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

tcent@John:4:27 @ Just then his disciples came. And they marveled that he was talking with a woman, but no one said, »What do you wish?« or, »Why are you talking with her?«

tcent@John:4:29 @ »Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?«

tcent@John:4:36 @ And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together.

tcent@John:4:38 @ I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.«

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

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

tcent@John:4:44 @ For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

tcent@John:4:45 @ So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they too had gone to the feast.

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

tcent@John:4:50 @ Jesus said to him, »Go; your son will live.« The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went his way.

tcent@John:4:51 @ As he was going down, his servants met him and told him that his son was living.

tcent@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus had said to him, »Your son will live.« And he himself believed, and all his household.

tcent@John:4:54 @ This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

tcent@John:5:6 @ When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been in this condition for a long time, he said to him, »Do you want to be made well?«

tcent@John:5:13 @ Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in that place.

tcent@John:5:14 @ Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, »See, you are well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse may happen to you.«

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

tcent@John:5:18 @ Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

tcent@John:5:20 @ For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does; and he will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

tcent@John:5:23 @ that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

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

tcent@John:5:34 @ Not that the testimony which I receive is from man; but I say this that you may be saved.

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

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

tcent@John:5:40 @ Yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life.

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

tcent@John:5:44 @ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

tcent@John:5:45 @ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; it is Moses who accuses you, on whom you set your hope.

tcent@John:6:5 @ Then Jesus lifted up his eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward him, he said to Philip, »Where shall we buy bread, that these people may eat?«

tcent@John:6:12 @ And when they had eaten their fill, he said to his disciples, »Gather up the fragments left over, that nothing may be lost.«

tcent@John:6:14 @ When the people saw the sign that Jesus did, they said, »Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.«

tcent@John:6:15 @ Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself.

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

tcent@John:6:24 @ So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they also got into the boats and went to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

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

tcent@John:6:30 @ So they said to him, »What sign will you perform then, that we may see it and believe you? What work will you do?

tcent@John:6:36 @ But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe.

tcent@John:6:37 @ All that the Father gives me will come to me, and the one who comes to me I will by no means cast out.

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

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

tcent@John:6:46 @ Not that any one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father.

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

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

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

tcent@John:6:65 @ And he said, »This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it has been granted to him by the Father.«

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

tcent@John:7:3 @ So his brothers said to him, »Leave here and go to Judea, that your disciples may see the works you are doing.

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

tcent@John:7:22 @ Moses therefore gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

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

tcent@John:7:26 @ Here he is, speaking publicly, and they say nothing to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that he is the Christ?

tcent@John:7:35 @ The Jews said to one another, »Where does this man intend to go that we shall not find him? Does he intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

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

tcent@John:7:42 @ Has not the scripture said that the Christ comes from David, and from Bethlehem, the town where David was?«

tcent@John:7:49 @ But this crowd that does not know the law is accursed.«

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

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

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

tcent@John:8:24 @ Therefore I told to you that you would die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.«

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

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

tcent@John:8:37 @ I know that you are Abraham's descendants, yet you seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.

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

tcent@John:8:48 @ The Jews answered him, »Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?«

tcent@John:8:52 @ The Jews said to him, »Now we know that you have a demon! Abraham died, as did the prophets; and you say, ‘If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.’

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

tcent@John:9:2 @ And his disciples asked him, »Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?«

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

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

tcent@John:9:20 @ His parents answered, »We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

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

tcent@John:9:24 @ So for the second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, »Give God the glory; we know that this man is a sinner.«

tcent@John:9:25 @ He answered, »Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know. One thing I know, that though I was blind, now I see.«

tcent@John:9:29 @ We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this fellow, we do not know where he comes from.«

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

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

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

tcent@John:9:36 @ He answered, »Who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?«

tcent@John:9:39 @ Jesus said, »For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind.«

tcent@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them, »If you were blind, you would have no guilt; but now that you say, ‘We see,’ your sin remains.

tcent@John:10:10 @ The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

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

tcent@John:10:17 @ For this reason my Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.

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

tcent@John:10:38 @ but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I am in the Father.«

tcent@John:10:41 @ And many came to him and they said, »John performed no sign, but all that John said about this man was true.«

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

tcent@John:11:6 @ So, when he heard that he was sick, he stayed two more days in the place where he was.

tcent@John:11:11 @ These things he said, and after that he said to them, »Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go to wake him up.«

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

tcent@John:11:15 @ and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.«

tcent@John:11:16 @ Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, »Let us also go, that we may die with him.«

tcent@John:11:17 @ So when Jesus came, he found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

tcent@John:11:20 @ When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary sat in the house.

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

tcent@John:11:24 @ Martha said to him, »I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.«

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

tcent@John:11:31 @ The Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.

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

tcent@John:11:41 @ So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, »Father, I thank you that you have heard me.

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

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

tcent@John:11:50 @ You do not understand that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.«

tcent@John:11:51 @ He did not say this on his own, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,

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

tcent@John:11:53 @ So from that day on they plotted to put him to death.

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

tcent@John:11:57 @ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, so that they might arrest him.

tcent@John:12:6 @ This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief; and as he had the money box, he used to take what was put into it.

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

tcent@John:12:12 @ The next day a great crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

tcent@John:12:16 @ His disciples did not understand this at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written about him and that they had done these things to him.

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

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

tcent@John:12:19 @ The Pharisees then said to one another, »You see that you are accomplishing nothing. Look, The world has gone after him!«

tcent@John:12:29 @ The crowd standing by heard it and said that it had thundered. Others said, »An angel has spoken to him.«

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

tcent@John:12:36 @ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.«

tcent@John:12:38 @ that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke:

tcent@John:12:46 @ I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me should not remain in darkness.

tcent@John:12:48 @ He who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; the word that I have spoken will condemn him on the last day.

tcent@John:12:50 @ And I know that his command is eternal life. Whatever I say, therefore, I say just as the Father has told me.«

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

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

tcent@John:13:5 @ After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded.

tcent@John:13:11 @ For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, »You are not all clean.«

tcent@John:13:15 @ For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

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

tcent@John:13:19 @ Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does take place, you may believe that I am he.

tcent@John:13:29 @ Some thought that, because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, »Buy what we need for the feast«; or, that he should give something to the poor.

tcent@John:13:34 @ A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

tcent@John:13:35 @ By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.«

tcent@John:14:3 @ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

tcent@John:14:8 @ Philip said to him, »Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.«

tcent@John:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.

tcent@John:14:11 @ Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father in me; or else believe me for the sake of the works themselves.

tcent@John:14:12 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father.

tcent@John:14:13 @ And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

tcent@John:14:20 @ In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

tcent@John:14:22 @ Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, »Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?«

tcent@John:14:26 @ But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

tcent@John:14:29 @ And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe.

tcent@John:14:31 @ But I do as the Father commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.

tcent@John:15:2 @ Every branch in me that bears no fruit he takes away; and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, so that it may bear more fruit.

tcent@John:15:6 @ If anyone does not abide in me, he is like a branch that is cast away and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned.

tcent@John:15:15 @ No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.

tcent@John:15:16 @ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give you.

tcent@John:16:1 @ »I have said all this to you so that you will not go astray.

tcent@John:16:4 @ But I have told you these things, that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them.

tcent@John:16:7 @ Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away. For if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

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

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

tcent@John:16:19 @ Now Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, so he said to them, »Are you asking yourselves about what I meant when I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see me; and again a little while, and you will see me’?

tcent@John:16:21 @ When a woman is in labor she has sorrow, because her hour has come; but as soon as she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child has been born into the world.

tcent@John:16:33 @ I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage! I have overcome the world.«

tcent@John:17:1 @ When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said: »Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son also may glorify you,

tcent@John:17:2 @ as you have given him authority over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to all those you have given him.

tcent@John:17:3 @ And this is eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

tcent@John:17:8 @ For I have given them the words which you have given me, and they have received them and know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me.

tcent@John:17:11 @ And now I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name – the name you gave me – that they may be one, even as we are one.

tcent@John:17:12 @ While I was with them, I kept them in your name – the name you gave me. I have guarded them, and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

tcent@John:17:13 @ But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

tcent@John:17:15 @ I do not pray that you should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil one.

tcent@John:17:25 @ O righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I have known you; and these know that you sent me.

tcent@John:17:26 @ I have made known to them your name, and will make it known, that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them.«

tcent@John:18:4 @ Then Jesus, knowing all that was to come upon him, went forward and said to them, »Whom do you seek?«

tcent@John:18:8 @ Jesus answered, »I told you that I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go.«

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

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

tcent@John:18:14 @ Now it was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

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

tcent@John:18:28 @ Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they did not enter the Praetorium themselves, so that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.

tcent@John:18:32 @ This happened so that the words Jesus had spoken would be fulfilled, showing by what death he was going to die.

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

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

tcent@John:19:4 @ Pilate went out again, and said to them, »See, I am bringing him out to you, that you may know that I find no crime in him.«

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

tcent@John:19:10 @ Pilate said to him, »You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, and power to crucify you?«

tcent@John:19:13 @ When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place that is called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.

tcent@John:19:24 @ So they said to one another, »Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be.« This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:

tcent@John:19:27 @ Then he said to the disciple, »Behold, your mother!« And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

tcent@John:19:28 @ After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, »I thirst.«

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

tcent@John:19:33 @ But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.

tcent@John:19:35 @ He who saw it has testified, and his testimony is true, and he knows that he tells the truth, that you also may believe.

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

tcent@John:20:18 @ Mary Magdalene went and said to the disciples, »I have seen the Lord!« And she told them that he had said these things to her.

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

tcent@John:21:4 @ But early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

tcent@John:21:7 @ Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, »It is the Lord!« Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had removed it), and threw himself into the sea.

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

tcent@Acts:8:14 @ Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John,

tcent@Acts:8:15 @ who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.

tcent@Acts:8:18 @ Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,

tcent@Acts:8:19 @ saying, »Give me also this power, so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.«

tcent@Acts:8:22 @ Repent therefore of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you.

tcent@Acts:8:23 @ For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity.«

tcent@Acts:8:24 @ And Simon answered, »Pray for me to the Lord, so that nothing of what you have said may come upon me.«

tcent@Acts:8:26 @ But an angel of the Lord said to Philip, »Get up and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.« This is a desert road.

tcent@Acts:9:2 @ and asked for letters from him to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, both men and women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

tcent@Acts:9:12 @ and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight.«

tcent@Acts:9:17 @ So Ananias departed and entered the house. And after laying his hands on him said, »Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road by which you were coming, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.«

tcent@Acts:9:22 @ But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus by proving that this Jesus is the Christ.

tcent@Acts:9:26 @ When he came to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.

tcent@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. And he declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.

tcent@Acts:9:37 @ And at that time she fell sick and died; and when they had washed her, they laid her body in an upper room.

tcent@Acts:9:38 @ Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him, »Please come to us without delay.«

tcent@Acts:9:39 @ So Peter rose and went with them. And when he arrived, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing the tunics and other garments that Dorcas made while she was with them.

tcent@Acts:10:14 @ But Peter said, »No, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.«

tcent@Acts:10:17 @ Now while Peter was inwardly perplexed as to what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men that were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, appeared at the gate.

tcent@Acts:10:28 @ And he said to them, »You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with a foreigner or to visit him; but God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

tcent@Acts:10:33 @ So I sent for you immediately, and you have been kind enough to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God, to hear all that you have been commanded by the Lord.«

tcent@Acts:10:34 @ And opening his mouth, Peter said: »I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality,

tcent@Acts:10:39 @ We are witnesses of all that he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree;

tcent@Acts:10:42 @ And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that he is the one appointed by God to be judge of the living and the dead.

tcent@Acts:10:43 @ Of him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.«

tcent@Acts:11:1 @ Now the apostles and the brethren who were throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.

tcent@Acts:11:11 @ And behold, at that moment three men appeared at the house in which we were staying, having been sent to me from Caesarea.

tcent@Acts:11:17 @ So if God gave them the same gift as he gave us, who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could oppose God?«

tcent@Acts:11:19 @ Now those who were scattered because of the persecution that arose in connection with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews.

tcent@Acts:11:28 @ One of them named Agabus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine all over the world. And this took place in the reign of Claudius.

tcent@Acts:12:1 @ Now about that time Herod the king laid hands on some who belonged to the church in order to persecute them.

tcent@Acts:12:3 @ When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread.

tcent@Acts:12:9 @ So he went out and followed him; and he did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.

tcent@Acts:12:11 @ When Peter came to himself, he said, »Now I know for sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting.«

tcent@Acts:12:14 @ When she recognized Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate, but ran in and announced that Peter was standing in front of the gate.

tcent@Acts:12:15 @ They said to her, »You are out of your mind!« But she kept insisting that it was so. They said, »It is his angel.«

tcent@Acts:12:19 @ When Herod had searched for him and could not find him, he examined the guards and ordered that they be put to death. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and stayed there a while.

tcent@Acts:13:1 @ Now in the church that was at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

tcent@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) was opposing them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

tcent@Acts:13:25 @ And as John was completing his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’

tcent@Acts:13:26 @ »Brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you that fear God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation.

tcent@Acts:13:29 @ When they had carried out all that was written about him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.

tcent@Acts:13:32 @ And we preach to you the good news that what God promised to the fathers,

tcent@Acts:13:34 @ As for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to decay, he spoke in this way:

tcent@Acts:13:38 @ Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through him forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you,

tcent@Acts:13:40 @ Therefore take care, so that what is said in the prophets may not come upon you:

tcent@Acts:13:42 @ As Paul and Barnabas were going out, the people begged that these things might be spoken to them the next Sabbath.

tcent@Acts:13:46 @ Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and said, »It was necessary that the word of God be spoken to you first. Since you reject it and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.

tcent@Acts:14:1 @ Now at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue, and so spoke that a great number believed, both of Jews and of Greeks.

tcent@Acts:14:9 @ He listened to Paul speaking; and Paul, looking intently at him and seeing that he had faith to be made well,

tcent@Acts:14:15 @ »Men, why are you doing this? We also are men, of like nature with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to a living God who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them.

tcent@Acts:14:17 @ yet he did not leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with food and gladness.«

tcent@Acts:14:19 @ But Jews came there from Antioch and Iconium; and having won over the crowds, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

tcent@Acts:14:21 @ After they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch,

tcent@Acts:14:27 @ When they arrived, they gathered the church together and declared all that God had done with them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.

tcent@Acts:15:4 @ When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they reported all that God had done with them.

tcent@Acts:15:7 @ After there had been much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, »Brethren, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles would hear the word of the gospel and believe.

tcent@Acts:15:11 @ But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they are.«

tcent@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore it is my judgment that we should not trouble those who are turning to God from among the Gentiles,

tcent@Acts:15:20 @ but that we should write to them to abstain from the pollutions of idols and from fornication and from what is strangled and from blood.

tcent@Acts:15:24 @ Since we have heard that some persons from us have disturbed you with words, unsettling your minds, although we gave them no instructions,

tcent@Acts:15:29 @ that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols and from blood and from things strangled and from fornication. If you keep yourselves free from these, you will do well. Farewell.«

tcent@Acts:15:38 @ But Paul kept insisting that they should not take along one who had deserted them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work.

tcent@Acts:15:39 @ There arose such a sharp disagreement that they separated from one another, and Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus.

tcent@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted this man to accompany him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those places, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

tcent@Acts:16:10 @ When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.

tcent@Acts:16:16 @ It happened that as we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave-girl who had a spirit of divination. She brought her owners much profit by fortune-telling.

tcent@Acts:16:18 @ She continued doing this for many days. But Paul was greatly annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, »I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!« And it came out at that very moment.

tcent@Acts:16:19 @ But when her owners saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the authorities,

tcent@Acts:16:26 @ and suddenly there came a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were unfastened.

tcent@Acts:16:27 @ When the jailer woke and saw that the prison doors were open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.

tcent@Acts:16:33 @ He took them that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he was baptized, he and all his family.

tcent@Acts:16:34 @ Then he brought them up into his house, and set food before them; and he rejoiced with his whole household that he had believed in God.

tcent@Acts:16:38 @ The police reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Roman citizens.

tcent@Acts:17:3 @ explaining and proving that the Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, »This Jesus whom I am proclaiming to you is the Christ.«

tcent@Acts:17:7 @ and Jason has welcomed them, and they are all acting against the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.«

tcent@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews of Thessalonica learned that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul in Berea also, they came there too, agitating and stirring up the crowds.

tcent@Acts:17:16 @ Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw that the city was full of idols.

tcent@Acts:17:22 @ So Paul stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: »Men of Athens, I see that in every way you are very religious.

tcent@Acts:17:27 @ that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

tcent@Acts:17:29 @ Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man.

tcent@Acts:18:5 @ When Silas and Timothy came from Macedonia, Paul devoted himself exclusively to preaching, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

tcent@Acts:18:28 @ for he powerfully refuted the Jews in public, proving by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.

tcent@Acts:19:2 @ And he said to them, »Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?« And they said, »No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.«

tcent@Acts:19:4 @ Paul said, »John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus.«

tcent@Acts:19:10 @ This took place for two years, so that all who lived in the province of Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.

tcent@Acts:19:12 @ so that handkerchiefs or aprons were even carried from his body to the sick, and diseases left them and the evil spirits went out.

tcent@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered all of them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

tcent@Acts:19:23 @ About that time there arose no small disturbance concerning the Way.

tcent@Acts:19:25 @ These he gathered together, with the workmen of similar trades, and said, »Men, you know that from this business we have our wealth.

tcent@Acts:19:26 @ And you see and hear that not only in Ephesus, but in almost all of Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away a considerable number of people, saying that gods made with hands are no gods at all.

tcent@Acts:19:27 @ Not only is there danger that this trade of ours fall into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis be regarded as worthless and that she whom all of Asia and the world worship will even be dethroned from her magnificence.«

tcent@Acts:19:34 @ But when they recognized that he was a Jew, for about two hours they all with one voice shouted, »Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!«

tcent@Acts:19:35 @ And when the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, »Men of Ephesus, what man is there after all who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is guardian of the temple of the great Artemis and of the image which fell down from heaven?

tcent@Acts:19:40 @ As it is, we are in danger of being charged with rioting because of today's events. In that case we would not be able to account for this commotion, since there is no reason for it.«

tcent@Acts:20:15 @ Sailing from there, we arrived the following day opposite Chios; and the next day we crossed over to Samos; and the day after that we came to Miletus.

tcent@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he would not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hurrying to be in Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost.

tcent@Acts:20:18 @ And when they came to him, he said to them: »You yourselves know how I lived the whole time I was with you, from the first day that I set foot in Asia,

tcent@Acts:20:20 @ how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly and from house to house,

tcent@Acts:20:23 @ except that the Holy Spirit solemnly testifies to me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.

tcent@Acts:20:25 @ And now, behold, I know that all of you among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom will see my face no more.

tcent@Acts:20:26 @ Therefore, I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.

tcent@Acts:20:29 @ I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;

tcent@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night and day to admonish each one with tears.

tcent@Acts:20:34 @ You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my own needs and to the men who were with me.

tcent@Acts:20:35 @ In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’«

tcent@Acts:20:38 @ grieving most of all over the word which he had spoken, that they would not see his face again. And they accompanied him to the ship.

tcent@Acts:21:19 @ After he had greeted them, he related one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

tcent@Acts:21:21 @ and they have been told about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or to walk according to the customs.

tcent@Acts:21:22 @ What then is to be done? They will certainly hear that you have come.

tcent@Acts:21:24 @ take these men and purify yourself along with them and pay their expenses, so that they may shave their heads. Thus all will know that there is nothing in what they have been told about you, but that you yourself live in observance of the law.

tcent@Acts:21:25 @ But as for the Gentiles who have believed, we wrote to them our decision that they should abstain from meat sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from fornication.«

tcent@Acts:21:29 @ For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian in the city with him, and they supposed that Paul had brought him into the temple.

tcent@Acts:21:31 @ While they were trying to kill him, a report came up to the commander of the Roman cohort that all Jerusalem was in confusion.

tcent@Acts:22:2 @ And when they heard that he addressed them in the Hebrew language, they became more quiet. And he said:

tcent@Acts:22:10 @ And I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?’ And the Lord said to me, ‘Get up and go on into Damascus, and there you will be told of all that has been appointed for you to do.’

tcent@Acts:22:11 @ But since I could not see because of the brightness of that light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me and came into Damascus.

tcent@Acts:22:13 @ came to me, and standing near said to me, ‘Brother Saul, receive your sight!’ And at that very time I looked up at him.

tcent@Acts:22:19 @ And I said, ‘Lord, they themselves know that in one synagogue after another I used to imprison and beat those who believed in you.

tcent@Acts:22:24 @ the commander ordered him to be brought into the barracks, and commanded him to be examined by scourging so that he might find out the reason why they were shouting against him that way.

tcent@Acts:22:29 @ So those who were about to examine him withdrew from him immediately; and the commander also was afraid when he realized that Paul was a Roman citizen and that he had put him in chains.

tcent@Acts:23:5 @ And Paul said, »I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, ‘You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.’«

tcent@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, »Brethren, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees; with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead I am on trial.«

tcent@Acts:23:8 @ For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor an angel, nor a spirit, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all.

tcent@Acts:23:10 @ The dispute became so violent that the commander was afraid Paul would be torn to pieces by them and ordered the troops to go down and take him away from them by force, and bring him into the barracks.

tcent@Acts:23:19 @ The commander took him by the hand, and going aside asked him privately, »What is it that you have to tell me?«

tcent@Acts:23:22 @ So the commander dismissed the young man, instructing him, »Tell no one that you have informed me of this.«

tcent@Acts:23:27 @ This man was seized by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them, when I came upon them with the troops and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman citizen.

tcent@Acts:23:29 @ I found that he was accused over questions about their Law, but there was no accusation against him deserving death or imprisonment.

tcent@Acts:23:30 @ And when I was informed that there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, also instructing his accusers to bring charges against him before you.«

tcent@Acts:23:34 @ When he had read the letter, he asked from what province he was, and when he learned that he was from Cilicia,

tcent@Acts:24:4 @ But, that I may not weary you further, I beg you in your kindness to hear us briefly.

tcent@Acts:24:9 @ The Jews also joined in the attack, asserting that these things were so.

tcent@Acts:24:10 @ When the governor had motioned for him to speak, Paul replied: »Realizing that for many years you have been a judge over this nation, I cheerfully make my defense.

tcent@Acts:24:11 @ Since you can easily verify that no more than twelve days ago I went up to Jerusalem to worship.

tcent@Acts:24:14 @ But this I admit to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect I do worship the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets,

tcent@Acts:25:4 @ Festus answered that Paul was being kept at Caesarea, and that he himself intended to go there shortly.

tcent@Acts:25:16 @ I answered them that it is not the custom of the Romans to hand over any man before the accused meets his accusers face to face and has an opportunity to make his defense against the charges.

tcent@Acts:25:24 @ Festus said, »King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man about whom the whole Jewish people petitioned me, both at Jerusalem and here, shouting that he ought not to live any longer.

tcent@Acts:25:25 @ But I found that he had done nothing deserving of death; and as he himself appealed to the emperor, I decided to send him.

tcent@Acts:25:26 @ But I have nothing definite about him to write to my lord. Therefore I have brought him before you all and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the investigation has taken place, I may have something to write.

tcent@Acts:26:23 @ that the Christ must suffer, and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to the people and to the Gentiles.«

tcent@Acts:26:26 @ For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak freely; for I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this was not done in a corner.

tcent@Acts:26:27 @ King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you do.«

tcent@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, »Whether in a short or a long time, I would to God that not only you but also all who hear me this day might become such as I am—except for these chains.«

tcent@Acts:27:1 @ When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan cohort named Julius.

tcent@Acts:27:10 @ and said to them, »Men, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and great loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.«

tcent@Acts:27:12 @ Because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority reached a decision to put out to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, facing southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.

tcent@Acts:27:13 @ When a gentle south wind came up, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and began sailing along Crete, close inshore.

tcent@Acts:27:17 @ After they had hoisted it up, they used supporting cables to undergird the ship; and fearing that they might run aground on the shallows of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and in this way let themselves be driven along.

tcent@Acts:27:25 @ So keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen exactly as I have been told.

tcent@Acts:27:27 @ But when the fourteenth night came, as we were being driven across the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors began to sense that they were approaching land.

tcent@Acts:27:29 @ Fearing that we might run aground somewhere on the rocks, they cast four anchors from the stern and prayed for daybreak.

tcent@Acts:27:33 @ As day was about to dawn, Paul urged them all to take some food, saying, »Today is the fourteenth day that you have been in suspense and without food, having taken nothing.

tcent@Acts:27:40 @ So they cast off the anchors and left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the ropes that tied the rudders; then hoisting the foresail to the wind they made for the beach.

tcent@Acts:27:42 @ The soldiers' plan was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim away and escape.

tcent@Acts:27:44 @ and the rest on planks or on various pieces of the ship. And so it happened that they were all brought safely to land.

tcent@Acts:28:1 @ When we had been brought safely through, then we found out that the island was called Malta.

tcent@Acts:28:6 @ They waited, expecting him to swell up or suddenly fall down dead; but after they had waited a long time and saw nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

tcent@Acts:28:7 @ Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who welcomed us and entertained us hospitably for three days.

tcent@Acts:28:8 @ It happened that the father of Publius was lying in bed sick with recurrent fever and dysentery; and Paul went in to see him and after he had prayed, he laid his hands on him and healed him.

tcent@Acts:28:16 @ And when we came into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier that guarded him.

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:2:9 @ not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.

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

tcent@Ephesians:4:29 @ 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@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:1:14 @ 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:1:20 @ 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:2:16 @ 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:3:21 @ 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@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:3:4 @ 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@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.

tcent@1John:5:14 @ And this is the confidence which we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us.

tcent@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that he hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.

tcent@1John:5:16 @ If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I do not say that he should pray about that.

tcent@1John:5:17 @ All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.

tcent@1John:5:18 @ We know that anyone born of God does not sin; but he who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.

tcent@1John:5:19 @ We know that we are of God, and the whole world is under the power of the evil one.

tcent@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

tcent@2John:1:5 @ And now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

tcent@2John:1:6 @ And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in love.

tcent@2John:1:8 @ Watch yourselves, that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may receive a full reward.

tcent@2John:1:12 @ Though I have much to write to you, I do not want to use paper and ink, but I hope to come to see you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

tcent@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, I pray that you may be in good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.

tcent@3John:1:4 @ I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

tcent@3John:1:8 @ Therefore we ought to support such men, so that we may be fellow workers in the truth.

tcent@3John:1:10 @ So if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, gossiping against us with evil words. And not satisfied with that, he refuses himself to welcome the brethren, and also stops those who want to welcome them and puts them out of the church.

tcent@3John:1:12 @ Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself; and we add our testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.

tcent@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, although I was very eager to write you about our common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you contend for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

tcent@Jude:1:5 @ Now I desire to remind you, though you were once for all fully informed, that the Lord who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.

tcent@Jude:1:10 @ But these men revile whatever they do not understand; and the things that they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals do, by these things they are destroyed.

tcent@Revelation:1:2 @ who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw.

tcent@Revelation:1:9 @ I, John, your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patient endurance that are ours in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.

tcent@Revelation:1:12 @ Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands,

tcent@Revelation:2:2 @ I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance. I know that you cannot bear evil men, but you have tested those who call themselves apostles and are not, and have found them to be false;

tcent@Revelation:2:4 @ But I have this against you, that you have left your first love.

tcent@Revelation:2:6 @ But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.

tcent@Revelation:2:9 @ I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich) and I know the slander of those who say that they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

tcent@Revelation:2:10 @ Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful even until death, and I will give you the crown of life.

tcent@Revelation:2:19 @ I know your works, your love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that your works are now more than at the first.

tcent@Revelation:2:20 @ Nevertheless I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess and is teaching and beguiling my servants to practice sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols.

tcent@Revelation:2:23 @ And I will strike her children dead. And all the churches shall know that I am he who searches minds and hearts, and I will give to each of you according to your works.

tcent@Revelation:3:8 @ I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word, and have not denied my name.

tcent@Revelation:3:9 @ Behold, I will make those of the synagogue of Satan who say that they are Jews and are not, but lie—look, I will make them come and bow down before your feet, and know that I have loved you.

tcent@Revelation:3:11 @ I am coming soon; hold fast to what you have, so that no one may take your crown.

tcent@Revelation:3:15 @ I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot!

tcent@Revelation:3:17 @ You say, »I am rich; I have become wealthy, and have need of nothing«—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked,

tcent@Revelation:3:18 @ Therefore I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments to clothe you, and to keep the shame of your nakedness from being seen; and salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see.
