riversident@Matthew:2:4 @ Then he called together all the high priests and scribes of the people and inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.

riversident@Matthew:12:24 @ The Pharisees when they heard it said, "This man casts out demons only through Beelzebul the Chief of the demons."

riversident@Matthew:14:30 @ But seeing the wind he became frightened, and, beginning to sink, he cried out, "Sir, save me!"

riversident@Matthew:14:36 @ and begged him that they might touch merely the tassel of his cloak, and all who touched were cured.

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

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

riversident@Matthew:15:25 @ But she came and bowed before him and said, "Help me, Sir."

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

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

riversident@Matthew:16:12 @ Then they understood that he had told them to beware not of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

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

riversident@Matthew:16:22 @ Peter took him and began to reprove him, saying, "Please God, Sir; this shall not happen to you."

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

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

riversident@Matthew:19:25 @ When the disciples heard this, they were amazed and said, "Who then can be saved?"

riversident@Matthew:20:20 @ Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, bowing down to him and making a request of him.

riversident@Matthew:21:15 @ When the high priests and the scribes saw the wonders that he did and the children shouting, "God save the Son of David!" they were angry

riversident@Matthew:21:17 @ Then he left them and went out of the city to Bethany and spent the night there.

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

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

riversident@Matthew:26:5 @ But they said, "Not on the feast day, so that there may not be a riot among the people."

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

riversident@Matthew:26:9 @ This could have been sold for a large sum and given to the poor."

riversident@Matthew:26:15 @ and asked, "What will you give me if I betray him to you?" They paid him thirty pieces of silver.

riversident@Matthew:26:16 @ And from that moment he kept seeking a favorable time to betray him.

riversident@Matthew:26:22 @ Greatly grieved, they began to ask him, each in turn, "It is not I, Master?"

riversident@Matthew:26:37 @ He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be grieved and distressed.

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

riversident@Matthew:26:70 @ But he denied it before all, saying, "I do not know what you mean."

riversident@Matthew:26:74 @ Then he began to curse and swear, "I do not know the man." Immediately the cock crew, and

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

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@Matthew:27:24 @ When Pilate saw that he was doing no good, but rather that an uproar was arising, he took some water and washed his hands before the crowd and said, "I am innocent of this blood. You will have to see to it."

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

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

riversident@Matthew:27:29 @ twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head, put a reed into his right hand, and, going down on their knees before him, made sport of him, shouting, "Hail, King of the Jews!"

riversident@Matthew:27:38 @ At the same time there were crucified along with him two robbers, one on his right and one on his left.

riversident@Matthew:27:41 @ In the same way the high priests, making sport of him, along with the scribes and elders, kept saying,

riversident@Matthew:27:42 @ "He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross and we will believe in him.

riversident@Matthew:27:44 @ In the same way even the robbers who were crucified with him insulted him.

riversident@Matthew:27:56 @ Among them were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

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

riversident@Matthew:27:63 @ and said, "Sir, we remember that that deceiver said while he was alive,

riversident@Matthew:27:64 @ So give orders to have the tomb guarded until the third day. Otherwise his disciples may come and steal him away and tell the people, 'He has been raised from the dead,' and the last error will be worse than the first."

riversident@Matthew:28:4 @ For fear of him the guards trembled violently and became like dead men.

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

riversident@Matthew:28:6 @ He is not here. He has been raised, as he told you. Come see the place where he lay.

riversident@Matthew:28:7 @ Go quickly and tell his disciples that he has been raised from the dead. He will precede you to Galilee. There you will see him. See, I have told you."

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

riversident@Matthew:28:15 @ The soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this report has been spread among the Jews to this day.

riversident@Matthew:28:17 @ and they saw him and bowed down before him; but some doubted.

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

riversident@Mark:1:2 @ It is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I am sending my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way.

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

riversident@Mark:1:11 @ And there was a voice from the heavens, "Thou art my Son, my Beloved; in thee I am well pleased."

riversident@Mark:1:13 @ And he was in the wild lands forty days, tempted by Satan. There he was among the wild beasts, but angels waited upon him.

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

riversident@Mark:1:19 @ Going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee and his brother John in their boat, mending their net.

riversident@Mark:1:20 @ Immediately he called them. They left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him away.

riversident@Mark:1:22 @ The people were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as if he had authority, and not as the scribes.

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

riversident@Mark:1:33 @ and the whole city was gathered before the door.

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

riversident@Mark:1:40 @ There came to him a leper, begging him and kneeling to him and saying, "If you will, you can cleanse me."

riversident@Mark:1:42 @ Immediately the leprosy left him and he became clean.

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

riversident@Mark:2:4 @ Not being able to bring him near, owing to the crowd, they opened the roof where he was, and when they had broken through it, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic was lying.

riversident@Mark:2:6 @ There were some of the scribes sitting there and debating in their minds,

riversident@Mark:2:12 @ Immediately the man rose and took up his pallet and went out before all, so that they were astounded and gave praise to God, saying, "We have never seen anything like this!"

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

riversident@Mark:2:16 @ When the scribes and the Pharisees saw that he was eating with sinners and tax collectors, they said to his disciples, "Can it be that he eats with tax collectors and sinners?"

riversident@Mark:2:23 @ It happened on a Sabbath day that he was passing through the grainfields, and his disciples began, as they walked, to pluck the heads of grain.

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

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

riversident@Mark:3:11 @ The impure spirits, also, when they saw him, fell down before him and shouted, "You are the Son of God."

riversident@Mark:3:14 @ He appointed twelve who should be with him and whom he could send out to preach

riversident@Mark:3:17 @ James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, to whom he gave the name Boanerges, which means Sons of Thunder,

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

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

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

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

riversident@Mark:4:37 @ Then a heavy squall of wind came up and the waves beat into the boat so that it was filling.

riversident@Mark:4:41 @ But they were intensely awestruck and said to one another, "Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the lake obey him?"

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

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

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

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

riversident@Mark:5:17 @ Then they began to beg him to go away from their neighborhood.

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

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

riversident@Mark:5:23 @ and pleaded with him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter is near to death. I beg you to come and lay your hands on her so that she may be saved and live."

riversident@Mark:5:26 @ and had suffered much under the treatment of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, though without becoming better, but rather worse;

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

riversident@Mark:5:28 @ for she said, "If I can touch even his clothes, I shall be healed."

riversident@Mark:5:33 @ Then the woman, afraid and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell before him and told him all the truth.

riversident@Mark:6:2 @ When the Sabbath came, he began teaching in the synagogue. Many who heard were astonished and said, "Where did he get this, and what is this wisdom with which he is gifted? How are such deeds of power done by his hands?

riversident@Mark:6:7 @ Then he called together the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over impure spirits,

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

riversident@Mark:6:9 @ to be shod with sandals, and not to have two tunics.

riversident@Mark:6:16 @ But Herod, when he heard about him, said, "John, the man whom I beheaded, has risen again."

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

riversident@Mark:6:27 @ So he immediately sent one of the guardsmen with orders to bring John's head. The soldier went and beheaded him in the prison

riversident@Mark:6:33 @ But many saw them going and recognized them, and ran together by land from all the towns and got there before them.

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

riversident@Mark:6:43 @ and they picked up twelve basketfuls of the broken pieces of the bread, besides portions of the fishes.

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

riversident@Mark:6:48 @ He saw them distressed in rowing, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night, he came to them walking on the lake and he seemed to be going past them.

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

riversident@Mark:6:56 @ Whenever he went into villages or towns or among the farms they would lay the sick in the streets and beg him to let them touch at least the tassel of his cloak. And all who touched were healed.

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

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

riversident@Mark:7:5 @ The Pharisees and scribes asked him, "Why do not your disciples live according to the tradition of our fore-fathers? Why do they eat their bread with common hands?"

riversident@Mark:7:26 @ The woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by race. She begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

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

riversident@Mark:7:32 @ They brought to him a deaf man who stammered, and begged him to lay his hand on him.

riversident@Mark:7:37 @ for they were astonished beyond all bounds and said, "He has done everything well. He makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak."

riversident@Mark:8:4 @ His disciples answered, "Where will any one be able to get bread to supply these people here in the uninhabited country?"

riversident@Mark:8:11 @ The Pharisees came out and began to argue with him, asking him for a sign from heaven, in order to test him.

riversident@Mark:8:16 @ They began to talk among themselves about their lack of bread.

riversident@Mark:8:22 @ They came to Bethsaida. There some people brought to him a blind man and begged him to touch him.

riversident@Mark:8:31 @ Then he began and taught them that it was necessary for the Son of Man to suffer many things, and to be rejected by the elders and the high priests and the scribes, and to be put to death, and after three days to rise again.

riversident@Mark:8:32 @ He spoke about this frankly. But Peter took him and began to reprove him.

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

riversident@Mark:9:3 @ His clothes became dazzlingly white, with a whiteness that no bleacher on earth can impart.

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

riversident@Mark:9:7 @ Then a cloud overshadowed them and there came a voice out of the cloud, "This is my beloved son, hear him."

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

riversident@Mark:9:14 @ When they came to his disciples, they saw a great crowd around them and scribes debating with them.

riversident@Mark:9:24 @ At once the father of the child cried out, "I believe; help my unbelief."

riversident@Mark:9:31 @ For he was teaching his disciples and telling them that the Son of Man would be betrayed into the hands of men and that they would kill him, and that three days after being killed he would rise.

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

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

riversident@Mark:10:17 @ While he was going out into the road, a man came running and knelt before him and asked, "Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit life eternal?"

riversident@Mark:10:26 @ They were amazed beyond measure and said to one another, "Then who can be saved?"

riversident@Mark:10:28 @ Peter began, "Well, we have left everything and have followed you."

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

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

riversident@Mark:10:41 @ When the ten heard about this, they became indignant at James and John.

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

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

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

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

riversident@Mark:11:12 @ On the next morning, after they had left Bethany, he was hungry,

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

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

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

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

riversident@Mark:12:1 @ THEN he began to speak to them in figures:

riversident@Mark:12:23 @ In the resurrection when they rise again whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as wife."

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

riversident@Mark:12:32 @ The scribe said to him, "Right, teacher; you have said truly that he is one and there is no other beside him,

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

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

riversident@Mark:14:1 @ THE Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were to come after two days. The high priests and the scribes were contriving how they might seize him by some stratagem and kill him.

riversident@Mark:14:2 @ For they said, "Not at the feast; there might be a popular outbreak."

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

riversident@Mark:14:5 @ This perfume could have been sold for more than three hundred shillings and the money given to the poor." So they were indignant at her.

riversident@Mark:14:10 @ Then Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went away to the high priests to betray him to them.

riversident@Mark:14:11 @ They were glad to hear it and promised to give him money. He meanwhile was contriving how he could betray him at some favorable time.

riversident@Mark:14:19 @ They began to be sad and to say one to another, "It cannot be I?"

riversident@Mark:14:33 @ He took Peter and James and John with him and began to be in terror and distress.

riversident@Mark:14:43 @ Immediately, even while he was speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, was there and with him a crowd with swords and clubs. They had been sent by the high priests and the scribes and the elders.

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

riversident@Mark:14:65 @ Then some began to spit on him and to blindfold him and to strike him with their fists and say, "Prophesy," and the attendants slapped him as they took him in charge.

riversident@Mark:14:66 @ While Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the maids of the High Priest came,

riversident@Mark:14:69 @ There the maid saw him and began again to say to those who stood around, "This man is one of them."

riversident@Mark:14:71 @ But he began to curse and swear, "I do not know this man you are speaking of."

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

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

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

riversident@Mark:15:15 @ Then Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, set free Barabbas for them and after scourging Jesus handed him over to be crucified.

riversident@Mark:15:18 @ and they began to salute him, "Hail, King of the Jews!"

riversident@Mark:15:19 @ They kept striking him on the head with a reed and spitting on him, and bending their knees they did homage to him.

riversident@Mark:15:27 @ With him were crucified also two robbers, one on his right and one on his left.

riversident@Mark:15:31 @ In the same way the high priests, jesting with one another, and the scribes said, "He saved others; himself he cannot save.

riversident@Mark:15:32 @ Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross so that we may see and believe." Even the men who were crucified along with him reviled him.

riversident@Mark:15:36 @ One ran and filled a sponge with sour wine and put it on a reed and gave him a drink, saying, "Let him be. Let us see whether Elijah comes to take him down."

riversident@Mark:15:42 @ It was now late in the afternoon and, since it was Preparation Day, that is the day before the Sabbath,

riversident@Mark:15:44 @ Pilate wondered whether he was already dead, but he called in the Centurion and asked him whether Jesus had been long dead.

riversident@Mark:15:46 @ Joseph bought a linen sheet and took him down and swathed him in it and laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out in the rock. He then rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.

riversident@Mark:16:4 @ But when they looked they saw that the stone had been rolled away. It was very large.

riversident@Mark:16:5 @ Entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side dressed in a white robe, and they were frightened.

riversident@Mark:16:6 @ But he said to them, "Do not be frightened. You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene who was crucified. He has risen. He is not here. This is the place where they laid him.

riversident@Mark:16:7 @ But go tell his disciples and Peter, He has gone before you into Galilee. There you will see him, as he told you."

riversident@Mark:16:10 @ She went and told those who had been with him as they were grieving and lamenting.

riversident@Mark:16:11 @ But they, when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, did not believe her.

riversident@Mark:16:13 @ They went and told the rest. But neither did they believe these men.

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

riversident@Luke:1:4 @ so that you may know the exact truth in regard to the matters which you have been taught by word of mouth.

riversident@Luke:1:5 @ There was in the days of Herod, King of Judaea, a certain priest by the name of Zacharias, of the course of Abijah. His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

riversident@Luke:1:6 @ They were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and regulations of the Lord blameless.

riversident@Luke:1:7 @ But they had no child, for Elizabeth was barren, and they were both advanced in years.

riversident@Luke:1:8 @ It happened that as Zacharias was performing his priestly duties before God in the order of his course,

riversident@Luke:1:13 @ But the angel said to him, "Do not fear, Zacharias, for your prayer has been heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear a son, and you will call his name John.

riversident@Luke:1:15 @ For he will be great before the Lord. He will not drink wine or strong drink. He will be full of the Holy Spirit even from his birth,

riversident@Luke:1:17 @ He will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous, to make ready for the Lord a people prepared for him."

riversident@Luke:1:19 @ The angel answered, "I am Gabriel, who stands before the face of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to give you this good news.

riversident@Luke:1:20 @ And now you will be silent and unable to speak until the day that this comes to pass, because you have not believed my words, which will be fulfilled in their time."

riversident@Luke:1:24 @ After these days Elizabeth his wife conceived and hid herself five months, saying,

riversident@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The name of the virgin was Mary.

riversident@Luke:1:31 @ You will conceive in your womb and will bear a son, and you must call his name Jesus.

riversident@Luke:1:33 @ He will be king over the house of Jacob through the ages, and of his kingdom there will be no end."

riversident@Luke:1:34 @ But Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I am not united to a man?"

riversident@Luke:1:35 @ The angel replied, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you and the power of the Highest will overshadow you. For that reason the child that is begotten will be called holy, Son of God.

riversident@Luke:1:36 @ And, indeed, Elizabeth your relative, even she, has conceived a son, in her old age, and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

riversident@Luke:1:38 @ Mary said, "Here I am, the Lord's handmaid. Let it be to me according to your word." Then the angel left her.

riversident@Luke:1:40 @ and entered the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

riversident@Luke:1:41 @ When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the babe leapt in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit

riversident@Luke:1:44 @ For, indeed, when the sound of your greeting fell upon my ears, the babe leapt for joy in my womb.

riversident@Luke:1:45 @ Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a complete fulfillment of the things spoken to her from the Lord!"

riversident@Luke:1:48 @ Because he has looked upon the low estate of his handmaid. Indeed, from this time all generations will call me blessed.

riversident@Luke:1:49 @ Because the Mighty One has done great things for me. Holy is his name.

riversident@Luke:1:57 @ When Elizabeth's due time came, she gave birth to a son.

riversident@Luke:1:60 @ But his mother said, "No, but he shall be called John."

riversident@Luke:1:66 @ All who heard them laid them up in their minds, saying, "What then will this child be?" For the hand of the Lord was with him.

riversident@Luke:1:68 @ "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel! For he has looked upon his people, and made deliverance for them.

riversident@Luke:2:15 @ When the angels went away into heaven, the shepherds spoke to one another: "Let us go to Bethlehem and see this that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us."

riversident@Luke:2:16 @ So they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.

riversident@Luke:2:17 @ When they saw it, they told what had been spoken to them about this child.

riversident@Luke:17:15 @ One of them, seeing that he had been cured, turned back with a loud shout giving glory to God,

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

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

riversident@Luke:18:15 @ They were bringing to him babes for him to touch. The disciples on seeing this rebuked them.

riversident@Luke:18:23 @ But he, on hearing this, became deeply sorrowful, for he was very rich.

riversident@Luke:18:26 @ Those who heard it said, "Then who can be saved?"

riversident@Luke:18:35 @ As he approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging.

riversident@Luke:18:39 @ Those who were in front rebuked him and told him to be still. But he kept crying out much louder, "Son of David, have pity on me!"

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

riversident@Luke:19:4 @ So running ahead he climbed up into a mulberry tree to see him, for he was going to pass that way.

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

riversident@Luke:19:29 @ When they approached Bethphage and Bethany at the mount called the Olive Orchard, he sent two of his disciples,

riversident@Luke:19:37 @ and as he approached the descent of the Mount of Olives all the multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God in a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen,

riversident@Luke:19:38 @ saying: "Blessed be he who comes as king, in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the heights above!"

riversident@Luke:19:45 @ Entering into the Temple courts he began and drove out the dealers,

riversident@Luke:19:47 @ He was teaching every day in the Temple courts. But the high priests and the scribes were bent on destroying him, and so were the first citizens.

riversident@Luke:20:1 @ ON one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the Temple courts and proclaiming the good news, the high priests and the scribes came up with the elders

riversident@Luke:20:5 @ They conferred among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'

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

riversident@Luke:20:16 @ When they heard this, they exclaimed, "May it never be!"

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

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

riversident@Luke:20:26 @ They could not seize upon his words before the people, and in astonishment at his answer they were silent.

riversident@Luke:20:33 @ Now this woman \'97 whose wife will she be at the resurrection? For she was wife to the seven."

riversident@Luke:20:39 @ Some of the scribes answered him, "Teacher, you have spoken well."

riversident@Luke:21:5 @ As some were speaking about the Temple buildings, how they were decorated with beautiful stones and votive gifts,

riversident@Luke:21:7 @ They asked him, "Teacher, when will these things be? And what will be the sign when they are about to happen?"

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

riversident@Luke:22:3 @ But Satan entered into Judas, called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve,

riversident@Luke:22:4 @ and he went away and talked over with the high priests and officers how he could betray him.

riversident@Luke:22:6 @ He promised, and was on the lookout for an opportunity to betray him to them when the crowd was not with him.

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

riversident@Luke:22:23 @ They began to question among themselves which of them it could be who was going to do this.

riversident@Luke:22:24 @ There was also a dispute among them as to which of them should be regarded as superior.

riversident@Luke:22:44 @ Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat became like great drops of blood failing upon the ground.

riversident@Luke:22:61 @ and the Master turned and looked at Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Master, how he had said to him,

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

riversident@Luke:22:66 @ When daylight came, the eldership of the people assembled, both high priests and scribes, and they led him to their council, saying,

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@Luke:23:14 @ and said to them, "You have brought before me this man as one who misguides the people, and yet I, in examining him before you, have found in this man not one criminal thing of all that you charge against him.

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

riversident@Luke:23:24 @ So Pilate gave sentence that what they asked should be done.

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

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

riversident@Luke:23:32 @ There were also two others, criminals, led with him to be put to death.

riversident@Luke:23:54 @ It was the day of Preparation and the Sabbath was about to begin.

riversident@Luke:24:4 @ While they were at a loss about this, suddenly two men in glittering robes stood beside them.

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

riversident@Luke:24:8 @ Then they remembered his words

riversident@Luke:24:11 @ But these reports seemed in their eyes like idle talk. They did not believe the women.

riversident@Luke:24:50 @ He led them out as far as Bethany and lifted up his hands and blessed them.

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

riversident@John:1:24 @ The men had been sent from the Pharisees.

riversident@John:1:28 @ This happened in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

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

riversident@John:1:30 @ This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who has become before me, for he was before me.'

riversident@John:1:31 @ I did not know him, but I knew that he was to be shown to Israel. For that reason I came baptizing with water."

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:3:24 @ For John had not yet been thrown into prison.

riversident@John:3:25 @ There arose a dispute between the disciples of John and a Jew about purification.

riversident@John:3:27 @ John answered, "A man can assume nothing unless it has been given him from heaven.

riversident@John:3:28 @ You yourselves are witnesses that I said, 'I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him.'

riversident@John:3:36 @ He who believes in the Son has life eternal. He who disbelieves in the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him.

riversident@John:4:31 @ In the meantime his disciples begged him, "Rabbi, eat something."

riversident@John:4:33 @ The disciples said to one another, "Can it be that any one has brought him something to eat?"

riversident@John:4:39 @ From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him on account of the woman's testimony, "He told me all that I ever did."

riversident@John:4:40 @ When the Samaritans came out to him, they begged him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days.

riversident@John:4:41 @ Many more believed on account of his own words,

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

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

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

riversident@John:4:49 @ The officer said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."

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

riversident@John:4:52 @ He inquired of them the hour when he was better. They said to him, "Yesterday at one o'clock the fever left him."

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

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

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

riversident@John:5:7 @ The sick man answered him, "I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is troubled. While I am coming, some other man gets down before me."

riversident@John:5:9 @ At once the man became well and took up his pallet and began walking. That day was the Sabbath.

riversident@John:5:10 @ The Jews said to the man who had been cured, "It is the Sabbath, and it is not proper for you to carry your pallet."

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:6:7 @ Philip answered him, "Two hundred shillings worth of bread would not be enough for them each to have a little piece."

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:6:71 @ He was speaking of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. For he was going to betray him, though he was one of the twelve.

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

riversident@John:7:2 @ The Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near.

riversident@John:7:4 @ For no one does anything in secret while desiring to be known publicly. If you are doing these things, show yourself to the world."

riversident@John:7:5 @ For neither did his brothers believe in him.

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

riversident@John:7:15 @ The Jews were astonished and said, "How does this man know books when he has never been educated?"

riversident@John:7:26 @ See, he is talking freely and they say nothing to him. It cannot be that the rulers know for truth that this is the Christ?

riversident@John:7:31 @ From the crowd many believed in him and said, "The Christ, when he comes, will not do more signs than this man does, will he?"

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

riversident@John:7:42 @ Does not the Scripture say that the Christ comes of the descendants of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?"

riversident@John:7:47 @ The Pharisees answered them, "Have you also been deluded?

riversident@John:7:48 @ Can it be that any one of the rulers or Pharisees has believed in him?

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

riversident@John:7:52 @ They answered him, "Can it be that you too are from Galilee? Examine and see that from Galilee no prophet arises."

riversident@John:8:3 @ The scribes and the Pharisees led in a woman taken in adultery and making her stand in the midst,

riversident@John:8:9 @ After hearing that, they passed out one by one, beginning with the older men, and he was left alone and the woman there in the center.

riversident@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees said to him, "You are bearing witness to yourself; your witness is not true."

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

riversident@John:8:30 @ While he was speaking these things, many believed in him.

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

riversident@John:8:33 @ They answered him, "We are descendants of Abraham and have never been in slavery to any man. How do you say,

riversident@John:8:53 @ Are you greater than our father Abraham? And yet he died and the prophets died. Whom do you make yourself out to be?"

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

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

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

riversident@John:9:18 @ The Jews did not believe the story that he was blind and recovered his sight, until they had called the parents of the man who had recovered his sight

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

riversident@John:9:24 @ They called a second time the man who had been blind, and said to him, "Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner."

riversident@John:9:27 @ He answered them, "I have told you already and you did not listen, why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples?"

riversident@John:9:32 @ Since the world began it has not been heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind.

riversident@John:9:36 @ The man answered, "Who is he, Sir? Tell me, so that I may believe in him."

riversident@John:9:38 @ He said, "I believe, Sir," and bowed down before him.

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

riversident@John:10:40 @ and went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was at first when he was baptizing, and he stayed there.

riversident@John:10:42 @ Many believed in him there.

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:11:27 @ She said to him, "Yes, Master. I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:11:48 @ If we let him alone in this way, all will believe in him and the Romans will come and destroy our place and nation."

riversident@John:11:50 @ nor do you reason that it is better for you that one man should die for the people and so the whole nation escape destruction."

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

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

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

riversident@John:12:4 @ Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, the one who was going to betray him, said,

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

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

riversident@John:12:15 @ "Fear not, daughter of Zion! Behold, your King comes, sitting on the foal of an ass!"

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:12:37 @ But, though he had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in him,

riversident@John:12:38 @ so that the word of Isaiah the prophet should be fulfilled. Isaiah said, "Lord, who has believed our report, and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:13:2 @ During supper, the Devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him,

riversident@John:13:5 @ Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel he had around him.

riversident@John:13:11 @ For he knew the one who was going to betray him. For this reason he said,

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

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

riversident@John:16:30 @ Now we know that you know all things and that you have no need to have any one question you. From this we believe that you have come forth from God."

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

riversident@John:18:9 @ He said this that the word might be fulfilled which he had spoken,

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

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

riversident@John:18:40 @ They shouted again, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas!" Barabbas was a robber.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

riversident@John:19:35 @ He who saw it has borne witness and his witness is true, and he knows that he speaks the truth in order that you may believe.

riversident@John:19:36 @ For this happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him shall not be broken."

riversident@John:19:41 @ There was in the place where he had been crucified a garden and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had been laid.

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

riversident@John:20:1 @ ON the first day of the week, early in the morning while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been taken from the tomb.

riversident@John:20:8 @ Then the other disciple who had come first to the tomb entered, and he saw and believed.

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

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

riversident@John:20:25 @ The other disciples said to him, "We have seen the Master." But he said to them, "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the print of the nails and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it."

riversident@John:20:30 @ Jesus did before the disciples many other signs which are not written in this book.

riversident@John:20:31 @ But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life through his name.

riversident@Acts:16:4 @ Thus they traveled through the cities and delivered to the disciples for observance the rules that had been decided on by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem.

riversident@Acts:16:5 @ So the churches grew firmer in faith and increased in numbers from day to day.

riversident@Acts:16:9 @ There a vision appeared to Paul in the night \'97 a Macedonian man was standing and begging him saying, "Come over into Macedonia and help us."

riversident@Acts:16:12 @ From there we went to Philippi, which is the first city of that part of Macedonia and is a Roman colony. We remained in that city for a number of days.

riversident@Acts:16:15 @ When she had been baptized along with her household, she begged us, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay," and she insisted on our doing so.

riversident@Acts:16:19 @ When her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they laid hold of Paul and Silas and dragged them into the public square before the authorities.

riversident@Acts:16:22 @ The crowd joined in the attack upon them, and the magistrates tore off their clothes and ordered them to be beaten with rods.

riversident@Acts:16:29 @ Calling for a light he sprang in and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas,

riversident@Acts:16:30 @ and led them out and said, "Men, what must I do to be saved?"

riversident@Acts:16:31 @ They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, and your household,"

riversident@Acts:16:34 @ He brought them into his house and spread the table for them, and rejoiced with his whole family because he had believed in God.

riversident@Acts:16:35 @ When morning came the magistrates sent their orderlies to say, "Set those men at liberty."

riversident@Acts:16:36 @ The jailer told this order to Paul, "The magistrates have sent to have you set at liberty. Now go out and proceed on your journey in peace."

riversident@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, "After beating us publicly and without a trial, although we are Romans, they cast us into prison. And are they now sending us out secretly? No, let them come themselves and lead us out."

riversident@Acts:16:39 @ and came and begged them, and after leading them out requested them to leave the city.

riversident@Acts:17:4 @ Some of them were persuaded and attached themselves to Paul and Silas \'97 a large number of the pious Greeks and not a few of the leading women.

riversident@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews became excited and, taking with them some of the base loafers from the market-place, they made a mob and threw the city into confusion. They attacked the house of Jason and tried to bring Paul and Silas out to the people.

riversident@Acts:17:6 @ Not finding them, they dragged Jason and certain brethren before the magistrates, shouting, "These men who have upset the world have now come here.

riversident@Acts:17:8 @ Both the crowd and the magistrates were disturbed on hearing this.

riversident@Acts:17:10 @ The brethren immediately sent off Paul and Silas in the night to Beraea. They on arrival went into the synagogue of the Jews.

riversident@Acts:17:12 @ Consequently many of them believed, and also not a few Greeks; women of high standing and men.

riversident@Acts:17:13 @ When the Jews of Thessalonica learned that God's message had been proclaimed by Paul also in Beraea, they came there agitating and disturbing the crowds.

riversident@Acts:17:17 @ He often debated in the synagogue with the Jews and pious persons, and in the market-place every day with whoever happened to be there.

riversident@Acts:17:18 @ Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encountered him, and some said, "What can this idle talker mean?" Others said, "He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign gods," because he was telling the good news of Jesus and the resurrection.

riversident@Acts:17:23 @ For in passing about and contemplating your sacred objects I came upon an altar on which was inscribed, 'To an unknown God.' What you are worshiping in ignorance \'97 that I am making known to you.

riversident@Acts:17:29 @ Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that deity is like gold or silver or stone, a thing carved by man's art and thought.

riversident@Acts:17:34 @ But certain men attached themselves to him and believed. Among them was Dionysius the Areopagite, and there was a woman named Damaris and several other persons.

riversident@Acts:18:2 @ There he found a Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus but recently come from Italy with Priscilla his wife, because Claudius had ordered all Jews to leave Rome. Paul visited these people,

riversident@Acts:18:3 @ and because he was of the same trade stayed with them and they worked together; for by trade they were tent-makers.

riversident@Acts:18:5 @ When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was absorbed by the message, bearing witness to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

riversident@Acts:18:8 @ Crispus, the synagogue Director, believed in the Lord with all his household, and many of the Corinthians when they heard believed and were baptized.

riversident@Acts:18:12 @ While Gallio was Proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one mind made an attack on Paul and brought him before the court,

riversident@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a dispute about doctrine and names and your own law, see to it yourselves. I will not be a judge of these things,"

riversident@Acts:18:16 @ and he drove them from before the judge's seat.

riversident@Acts:18:17 @ Then they laid hold of Sosthenes, the synagogue Director, and beat him right in front of the judge's seat. But Gallio cared for none of these things.

riversident@Acts:18:18 @ Paul remained a number of days more. Then after taking leave of the brethren he sailed away to Syria, and Priscilla and Aquila went with him. He had shaved his head at Cenchreae, for he had a vow.

riversident@Acts:18:20 @ Although they begged him to stay longer, he did not consent,

riversident@Acts:18:25 @ He was strong in knowledge of the Scriptures and had been instructed in the way of the Lord, and, being very earnest in spirit, was teaching accurately about Jesus, although he knew no baptism but John's.

riversident@Acts:18:26 @ This man began to speak fearlessly in the synagogue. When Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him and explained to him the way of God more accurately still.

riversident@Acts:18:27 @ As he wished to cross over to Achaia, the brethren encouraged him and wrote to the disciples to welcome him. So he went and greatly helped those who had believed through grace.

riversident@Acts:19:2 @ He said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" They said to him, "On the contrary, we did not even hear that there was a Holy Spirit."

riversident@Acts:19:4 @ Paul said, "John baptized with the baptism of a change of heart, telling the people to believe in one who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus."

riversident@Acts:19:9 @ When some were hardened and would not believe and spoke evil of the Way before the congregation, he departed from them and took away his disciples and discussed daily in the lecture-hall of Tyrannus.

riversident@Acts:19:16 @ and the man in whom the evil spirit was sprang on them and overpowered both of them, and so belabored them that they fled from that house naked and wounded.

riversident@Acts:19:17 @ This became known to all who were living in Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks, and awe fell on all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus came to be held in high honor.

riversident@Acts:19:18 @ Many of those who had become believers came confessing and telling of their practices.

riversident@Acts:19:19 @ A number of those who had practiced magic brought their books and burned them before all. Adding up the prices of them they found the total to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.

riversident@Acts:19:21 @ When these things had been accomplished Paul took it in mind to pass through Macedonia and Achaia and go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there I must see Rome also."

riversident@Acts:19:26 @ and you see and hear that not only at Ephesus, but also throughout almost all Asia this Paul has persuaded and drawn away a large number, saying that hand-made gods are not gods at all.

riversident@Acts:19:27 @ Not only is this trade of ours in danger of coming into disrepute, but also the temple of the great goddess Artemis is in danger of being held of no account, and she whom now all Asia and the wide world worship will be deposed from her majesty."

riversident@Acts:19:28 @ Upon hearing this, they became full of anger and shouted, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!"

riversident@Acts:19:31 @ Some of the city officials who were his friends sent to him and begged him not to expose himself in the theater.

riversident@Acts:19:33 @ Some of the crowd fixed on Alexander, since the Jews were putting him forward. And Alexander motioned with his hand and wished to make a defense before the people.

riversident@Acts:19:36 @ Since these things are indisputable, you ought to be calm and do nothing rash.

riversident@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought here these men who are not robbers of temples nor defamers of your goddess.

riversident@Acts:19:39 @ If you are seeking anything further, it shall be settled in a lawful assembly.

riversident@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger of being called in question regarding to-day's mob, and we shall not be able to give a reason for this tumult."

riversident@Acts:20:4 @ There were in company with him Sopater of Beraea, the son of Pyrrhus, and of the Thessalonians Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe and Timothy, and from Asia Tychicus and Trophimus.

riversident@Acts:20:7 @ On the first day of the week, when we all were assembled to break bread, Paul was discoursing to them, being about to leave in the morning, and he extended his address until midnight.

riversident@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus in order not to spend time in Asia. He was hurrying to be in Jerusalem, if possible, on the Day of Pentecost.

riversident@Acts:21:11 @ He came to see us, and took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, 'So will the Jews in Jerusalem bind the man who owns this belt, and will deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.' "

riversident@Acts:21:12 @ When we heard this, both we and the residents there begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

riversident@Acts:21:13 @ Paul answered, "What are you accomplishing by weeping and breaking my heart? For I hold myself ready not only to be bound, but to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

riversident@Acts:21:14 @ When he would not be persuaded, we stopped talking, saying, "The Lord's will be done."

riversident@Acts:21:16 @ Some of the disciples from Caesarea went up with us, taking along Mnason, a Cypriote, an old-time disciple, whose guests we were to be.

riversident@Acts:21:20 @ After hearing him, they gave glory to God and said to Paul, "You see, brother, how many tens of thousands of believers there are among the Jews, and they are all zealous for the Law.

riversident@Acts:21:22 @ What then? It will be generally heard that you have come.

riversident@Acts:21:24 @ Take these men and go through purification with them and pay their expenses, so that they may shave their heads. Then all will know that what they have heard about you amounts to nothing, but that you yourself walk in obedience to the Law.

riversident@Acts:21:25 @ "But as to the Gentiles that have believed, we have, after consideration, sent our decision that they shall guard themselves against what has been sacrificed to idols, and against blood, and against what has been strangled, and against unchastity."

riversident@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul on the next day took the men, and, after purifying himself, entered the Temple courts, giving notice of the completion of the days of purification \'97 the time until a sacrifice would have been offered for each one of them.

riversident@Acts:21:32 @ He at once took soldiers and centurions and ran down to the people. They, on seeing the Tribune and the soldiers, stopped beating Paul.

riversident@Acts:21:33 @ Then the Tribune coming up arrested him and ordered him to be bound with two chains, and inquired who he was and what he had done.

riversident@Acts:21:34 @ Some called out one thing and some another in the crowd. Not being able to find out anything for certain on account of the confusion, he ordered Paul to be taken into the barracks.

riversident@Acts:21:35 @ When Paul got upon the stairs, it so happened that he was being carried by the soldiers on account of the violence of the mob.

riversident@Acts:21:39 @ Paul said, "I am a Jew from Tarsus, in Cilicia, a citizen of no insignificant city. I beg you to let me talk to the people."

riversident@Acts:22:15 @ for you shall be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and heard.

riversident@Acts:22:29 @ At once those who were about to examine him went away from him, and the Tribune was alarmed when he learned that he was a Roman, because he had chained him.

riversident@Acts:22:30 @ On the next day, wishing to know certainly why he was accused by the Jews, the Tribune loosed Paul and ordered the high priests and all the Council to assemble, and brought Paul down and stood him before them.

riversident@Acts:23:3 @ Then Paul said to him, "God will soon strike you, you whitewashed wall. Are you sitting to judge me by the Law and yet violating the Law by ordering me to be struck?"

riversident@Acts:23:6 @ Then Paul, perceiving that one party was of Sadducees and the other of Pharisees, shouted out in the Council, "Brethren, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. I am being tried for the hope of the resurrection of the dead."

riversident@Acts:23:7 @ On his saying this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the assembly became divided.

riversident@Acts:23:9 @ So a great uproar arose, and some of the scribes of the party of the Pharisees arose and contended, saying, "We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit has spoken to him, or an angel?"

riversident@Acts:23:10 @ When the strife was becoming violent, the Tribune, fearing that Paul might be torn to pieces by them, ordered the soldiers to go down and take him from the midst of them and bring him into the barracks.

riversident@Acts:23:11 @ On the following night the Lord stood beside Paul and said,

riversident@Acts:23:15 @ Now therefore you and the Council must ask the Tribune to bring him down to you, as if you were going to inquire more exactly about him, and we, before he comes near, will be ready to put him out of the way."

riversident@Acts:23:33 @ The horsemen came on to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the Governor, and also placed Paul before him.

riversident@Acts:23:35 @ Then he said, "I will hear what you have to say when your accusers also arrive." He gave orders that Paul should be guarded in Herod's castle.

riversident@Acts:24:2 @ When Paul had been called in, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, "Because we enjoy great peace through your administration and reforms are taking place for this nation through your prudence,

riversident@Acts:24:25 @ While Paul was reasoning about righteousness and self-discipline and the judgment that is to come, Felix became alarmed and said," Go for the present. When I find a convenient time I will send for you."

riversident@Acts:24:26 @ At the same time he was in hopes that money would be given him by Paul and therefore he used to send for him more frequently and converse with him.

riversident@Acts:25:3 @ and begged as a favor that he would send for him to Jerusalem, intending to have an ambush and kill him on the road.

riversident@Acts:25:4 @ But Festus answered that Paul was being kept in Caesarea and that he himself was going back very soon.

riversident@Acts:25:6 @ After spending not more than eight or ten days among them, he went down to Caesarea and on the next day took his seat on the judge's bench and ordered Paul to be brought in.

riversident@Acts:25:9 @ Festus, wishing to gain favor with the Jews, asked Paul, "Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and there be tried for this before me?"

riversident@Acts:25:10 @ Paul said, "I am standing before Caesar's bar, where I ought to be tried. I have not harmed any Jews in anything, as you very well know.

riversident@Acts:25:20 @ Being at a loss about a question of this kind, I asked if he would be willing to go to Jerusalem and be tried there on the charges.

riversident@Acts:25:21 @ But when Paul appealed to be kept for the examination of the Emperor, I ordered him to be kept until I could send him to Caesar."

riversident@Acts:25:23 @ So on the next day Agrippa came and Bernice with much display, and they entered the auditorium with the military tribunes and the principal men of the city, and at Festus' command Paul was led in.

riversident@Acts:25:26 @ Concerning him I have nothing certain to write to my Lord. Therefore I have brought him before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, that after an examination I may have something to write.

riversident@Acts:26:1 @ AGRIPPA said to Paul, "You are at liberty to speak for yourself." Then Paul stretched out his hand and made his defense:

riversident@Romans:3:29 @ Does God belong to the Jews only? Does he not belong also to the Gentiles? Yes, to the Gentiles,

riversident@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was pronounced righteous because of works, he had something to boast of. But he had nothing before God;

riversident@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness of faith that he had in uncircumcision, so that he should be the father of all who believe while uncircumcised, and righteousness should be credited to them;

riversident@Romans:4:13 @ It was not through the Law that the promise came to Abraham or to his descendants that he should be the heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith.

riversident@Romans:4:25 @ who was delivered up on account of our sins and was raised again that we might be accounted righteous.

riversident@Romans:5:9 @ Much more then, now that we have been pronounced righteous through his blood, shall we be saved from wrath by him.

riversident@Romans:5:10 @ For if while enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

riversident@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift was not like the sentence that came through one who sinned; for the sentence came from one fall for condemnation, but the free gift was that men should be called righteous in spite of many falls.

riversident@Romans:5:19 @ For as by the disobedience of the one man the many were set down as sinners, so by the obedience of the one the many will be set down as righteous.

riversident@Romans:5:20 @ But law came in alongside that the fall might be greater; but where sin became greater grace became greater still,

riversident@Romans:6:15 @ What then? May we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Never.

riversident@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves as servants intending obedience, you are the servants of the one you obey, whether of sin, resulting in death, or of obedience, resulting in righteousness?

riversident@Romans:6:17 @ Thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin you became obedient from the heart to the type of teaching in which you were instructed.

riversident@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking humanly on account of the weakness of your human nature. As you did present your members as servants to impurity and to lawlessness to do lawlessness, so now you have presented your members as servants to righteousness for holy living.

riversident@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh the sinful passions that arise through the Law were active in our members, so that we bore fruit to death.

riversident@Romans:7:6 @ But now the Law has been made inoperative on us, since we have died to that by which we were held, so that we serve in newness of the spirit and not in oldness of the letter.

riversident@Romans:7:9 @ I was living once, apart from law. But when the commandment came, sin began to live and I died,

riversident@Romans:7:13 @ Did then what is good become death to me? Never. But sin, that it might appear sin, worked death in me through the good, in order that it might become beyond measure sinful.

riversident@Romans:7:23 @ but I see another law in my members, warring with the law of my mind and leading me captive under the law of sin which is in my members.

riversident@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then I myself with my mind serve the Law of God, but with my flesh the law of sin.

riversident@Romans:8:3 @ For, what was impossible for the Law, because it was weak through the flesh \'97 God, sending his own Son in the form of sinful flesh and for sin, condemned the sin that is in the flesh,

riversident@Romans:8:4 @ so that the righteousness required by the Law might be fulfilled in us who live not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.

riversident@Romans:8:7 @ Therefore fleshly mindedness is hostile to God; for it is not subject to the Law of God, nor can it be.

riversident@Romans:8:10 @ If Christ is in you the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is life because of righteousness.

riversident@Romans:8:17 @ And if children, we are also heirs \'97 heirs of God, joint heirs with Christ, since we suffer with him that we may also be glorified with him.

riversident@Romans:8:18 @ For I estimate that the sufferings of this present time amount to nothing in comparison with the glory that is to be revealed for us.

riversident@Romans:8:21 @ because the creation itself will be freed from the slavery of decay into the glorious freedom of the children of God.

riversident@Romans:8:23 @ And not the creation alone, but we ourselves also who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, groan within ourselves in expectation of the sonship, the liberation of our bodies.

riversident@Romans:8:26 @ Thus also the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes for us with sighs beyond words.

riversident@Romans:8:27 @ And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he intercedes for the holy according to the will of God.

riversident@Romans:10:16 @ But have not all heard the good news? For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?"

riversident@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, it cannot be true that they have not heard, can it? On the contrary, "Their sound has gone out into all the earth and their words to the ends of the world."

riversident@Romans:10:19 @ I say, it cannot be that Israel did not know, can it? First Moses says, "I will excite you to jealousy by what is not a nation and by a foolish nation I will provoke you to anger."

riversident@Romans:10:20 @ And Isaiah makes bold to say, "I was found by those who were not seeking me: I became manifest to those who were not inquiring for me."

riversident@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says, "All day long I stretched forth my hands to a people who disobey and answer back."

riversident@Romans:11:1 @ I SAY then, can it be that God has repudiated his people? Never. For I am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

riversident@Romans:11:6 @ But if it is by grace it is no longer because of works, for then grace would be no longer grace.

riversident@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel has not found what it is seeking, but the chosen have found it. And the rest have been made dull,

riversident@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," "Thou shalt not commit murder," "Thou shalt not steal," "Thou shalt not covet," and any other that there may be, are summed up in this: "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."

riversident@Romans:13:10 @ Love works no evil to a neighbor. Love therefore is full obedience to the Law.

riversident@Romans:13:11 @ Live thus because you know this crisis, for it is already time for you to awake from sleep. For now our salvation is nearer than when we became believers.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:5 @ So do not judge anything before the time, before the Lord comes. He will throw light on the hidden things of darkness and will make manifest the purposes of hearts. Then each one will have his praise from God.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:6 @ All this, brethren, I have applied to myself and Apollos for your sake, that you may learn the maxim, "Nothing beyond what is written," and may not be puffed up in partisanship for one against the other.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:8 @ You are already fully satisfied. You have already become rich. You have become kings without us. Would that you had become kings so that we might be kings with you!

riversident@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For it seems to me that God has set us apostles out last of all as men doomed to death, that we may be a spectacle to the world and to angels and to men.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:11 @ Up to this present hour we are hungry and thirsty and naked and beaten. We wander about

riversident@1Corinthians:4:13 @ when slandered we entreat. We have come to be, as it were, the sweepings of the world, the riffraff of all things up to now.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I am not writing this to shame you, but to warn you as my beloved children.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:16 @ So I beg you to be imitators of me.

riversident@1Corinthians:4:18 @ Some persons have become puffed up, thinking that I am not coming to you.

riversident@1Corinthians:5:5 @ I decided to deliver over such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.

riversident@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your boasting is unbecoming. Do you not know that a little yeast sets the whole mass fermenting?

riversident@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Cleanse out the old yeast that you may be new dough, free from yeast, as indeed you are. For Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed.

riversident@1Corinthians:6:1 @ DOES any one of you, if he has a grievance against another, dare to bring the case before the unrighteous and not before the holy?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the holy are going to judge the world? If the world is to be judged by you, are you unfit for the most trivial cases?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Is it true that there is among you no one wise enough to judge between a man and his brother,

riversident@1Corinthians:6:6 @ but brother goes to law with brother and that before unbelievers?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Now this is an utter failure on your part that you have lawsuits with one another. Why not rather let yourselves be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?

riversident@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such some of you were. But you have washed yourselves; but you have been made holy; but you have been pronounced righteous in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

riversident@1Corinthians:6:12 @ All things are lawful for me, but not everything is beneficial. All things are lawful, but I will not be overpowered by anything.

riversident@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!

riversident@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that he who unites himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For God says, "The two shall become one flesh."

riversident@1Corinthians:7:2 @ But because of the prevailing unchastity, let each man have his own wife and each woman her own husband.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they lack self-control, let them marry. It is better to marry than to burn.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:12 @ To the rest I say \'97 not the Lord: If any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever and she is pleased to live with him, let him not put her away.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And if any woman has a husband who is an unbeliever and he is pleased to live with her, let her not put him away.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband has been made holy by the wife and the unbelieving wife has been made holy by the husband. Otherwise your children would be impure, but now they are holy.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving one actually leaves, let him leave. The brother or sister is not under bondage in such cases; but God has called you to peace.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But, as the Lord has allotted to each, let each go on living as when God called him. So I prescribe in all the churches.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:18 @ Was any one already circumcised when called? Let him not efface it. Was any one called when uncircumcised? Let him not become circumcised.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called when a slave? Let it not trouble you. On the contrary, even if you can become free, take it in preference.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For the slave who has been called in the Lord is the Lord's freedman. Just so the free man, when called, is the slave of Christ.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:23 @ You were bought with a price. Do not become slaves of men.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I think then that this is an excellent thing on account of the present distress \'97 that it is an excellent thing for a person to be unmarried.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Have you been bound to a wife? Seek not release. Have you been freed from a wife? Do not seek a wife.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:29 @ But this I say, brethren: The time is shortened. For what remains let those who have wives be as if they had none,

riversident@1Corinthians:7:32 @ I wish you to be free from worry. The unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord \'97 how be may please the Lord.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:34 @ and his interest is divided. So the unmarried woman or the maiden is anxious about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about the things of the world \'97 how she may please her husband.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:35 @ This I say for your benefit, not to throw a noose over you, but to promote decorum and constant devotion to the Lord without distraction.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:36 @ If any one thinks that he is acting unbecomingly toward his virgin, if she is ripe for marriage and there is need, let him do what he will. He does not sin. Let them marry.

riversident@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So he who marries his virgin does well, and he who does not marry her will do better.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:1 @ NOW as to things that have been sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Regarding the eating of things that have been sacrificed to idols, then, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But all have not this knowledge. Some, having been accustomed to idols up to the present time, eat the food as a sacrifice to an idol, and their conscience being weak is stained.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But be careful that this power of yours may not become a stumbling block to the weak.

riversident@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any one sees you who have knowledge reclining at table in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of that weak one be emboldened to eat things that have been sacrificed to idols?

riversident@1Corinthians:9:10 @ or does he say this wholly for our sakes? For our sakes; for it was written because the plowman ought to plow in hope and the thresher ought to thresh in hope of having a share.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these rights and I am not writing this in order that it may be done in my case. For it would be better for me to die \'97 No one shall make my boast an empty one!

riversident@1Corinthians:9:17 @ If I do it voluntarily I have a reward, but if reluctantly, I have been charged with a responsibility.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:20 @ I became to the Jews a Jew, to gain the Jews; to those under law as under law, though not myself under law, to gain those who are under law.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those without law, I became as without law, though not without the law of God and under the law of Christ, to gain those who are without law.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:22 @ To the weak I became weak to gain the weak. To all men I became all things in order by all means to save some.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:23 @ I do all things for the sake of the good news that I may become a partner with it.

riversident@1Corinthians:9:27 @ On the contrary, I maul and master my body so that I may not, after preaching to others, become myself unable to stand the test.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:1 @ I DO not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea

riversident@1Corinthians:10:6 @ These things happened as warnings for us, that we may not be eager for evil things as they were eager.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Be not idolaters, as some of them were, as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to dance."

riversident@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor let us be unchaste, as some of them were and twenty-three thousand fell dead in one day.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:12 @ So let him who thinks that he is standing beware of falling.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No trial has taken you but what belongs to human nature. God is faithful and he will not let you be tried beyond your power, but will make, with the trial, a way of escape so that you can endure it.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:14 @ Therefore, my beloved, shun idolatry.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:17 @ Because there is one bread we though many are one body; for we all partake of the one bread.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:20 @ But I say that what they sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God. And I would not have you become partakers with demons.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:23 @ All things are lawful, but not all are beneficial. All things are lawful, but not all build up character.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any one of the unbelievers invites you and you wish to go, eat whatever is set before you, raising no questions of conscience.

riversident@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if any one says to you, "This is meat that has been sacrificed," do not eat, for the sake of him who mentioned it and for conscience' sake \'97

riversident@1Corinthians:10:29 @ conscience, I say, not yours, but the other man's. For why is my liberty judged by the conscience of another?

riversident@1Corinthians:10:33 @ as I also in all things accommodate myself to all men, not seeking my own interest but that of the many, in order that they may be saved.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:2 @ I praise you because you remember me in all things and hold firmly the traditions as I passed them on to you.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:10 @ Therefore, the woman ought to have a badge of authority on her head because of the angels.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Decide for yourselves: is it becoming for a woman to pray to God unveiled?

riversident@1Corinthians:11:15 @ but that if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her? Because the hair is given to her for a covering.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if any one cares to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor have the churches of God.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:17 @ In giving the following directions I do not praise you, because you do not assemble for the better, but for the worse.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, in the first place, I hear that when you assemble as a church there are parties among you, and to some extent I believe it.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must be parties among you in order that it may become plain who are worthy of approval.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord that which I passed on to you that the Lord Jesus, on the night in which he was betrayed, took bread,

riversident@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:30 @ For this reason many are weak and sickly among you and a number are asleep.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:31 @ If we judged ourselves we should not be judged.

riversident@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined in order that we may not be condemned along with the world.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:1 @ CONCERNING spiritual things, brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so also is Christ.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body is not one member, but many.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot says, "Because I am not a hand I am not of the body," it is not for that reason not of the body.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear says, "Because I am not an eye I am not of the body," it is not for that reason not of the body.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?

riversident@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has placed the members each one of them in the body as he pleased.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:19 @ If all were one member, where would be the body?

riversident@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now the members are many, but the body is one.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:22 @ Indeed, much more those members of the body that seem to be the weaker are necessary,

riversident@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there may be no discord in the body, but that the members may have a common concern for one another.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if a member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

riversident@1Corinthians:12:27 @ You are the body of Christ and individually members.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:1 @ IF I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And if I distribute all that I have to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:7 @ excuses all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails; but if there are prophetic powers, they will become useless; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will become useless.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:10 @ but when the perfect comes what is in part will become useless.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. Since I have become a man, I have no use for childish things.

riversident@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For as yet we are looking at puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then face to face. As yet I know in part, but then I shall know fully, as I have been fully known.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:1 @ SEEK love earnestly, be eager for spiritual gifts, but most to prophesy.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:6 @ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what benefit will I be to you unless I speak to you in a revelation or in knowledge or in prophecy or in teaching.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Inanimate things that give a sound, such as the flute or harp, \'97 unless they give a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is being played on flute or harp?

riversident@1Corinthians:14:9 @ And so you, if you do not give by the tongue words easy to understand, how will it be known what is said? For you will be talking into the air.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, it may be, so many kinds of languages in the world, and none without meaning.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:11 @ If then I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be a barbarian to him who is speaking, and he will be a barbarian to me.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brethren, be not children in intelligence, but be babes in wickedness. In intelligence be adults.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So then tongues are for a sign not to believers, but to unbelievers, and prophecy is not for unbelievers, but for believers.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:23 @ If therefore the whole church assembles and all speak with tongues and ordinary men or unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are insane?

riversident@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy and any unbeliever or ordinary man comes in, he is convinced by all, he is judged by all,

riversident@1Corinthians:14:25 @ the secrets of his heart become manifest, and so falling on his face he worships God, declaring that God is really among you.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What then, brethren? When you assemble each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for the upbuilding of character.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If any one speaks with a tongue, let it be two, or at the most three, at a time and in turn and let one interpret.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:30 @ If a revelation comes to another who is sitting by, let the first become silent.

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

riversident@1Corinthians:14:34 @ let the women be silent in your assemblies. For it is not allowed to them to speak; but let them be in subjection as also the Law says.

riversident@1Corinthians:14:40 @ Let all things be done becomingly and in order.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:2 @ through which also you are being saved, if you hold fast the message that I announced to you, unless your faith was thoughtless.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles and am not fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Whether then it was I or they, so we proclaim and so you believed.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:12 @ But if Christ is proclaimed \'97 that he has been raised from the dead \'97 how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

riversident@1Corinthians:15:13 @ If there is no resurrection of the dead, then neither has Christ been raised.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:14 @ If Christ has not been raised, then our proclamation is an empty thing and your faith is an empty thing.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:15 @ And we are found false witnesses of God because we testified regarding God that he raised up Christ, whom he did not raise if the dead are not raised.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:17 @ And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile, you are still in your sins.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first-fruit of those who have fallen asleep.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:22 @ For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then will be the end when he delivers up the kingship to God his Father, when he has defeated every archangel and authority and power.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:25 @ For he must be king until he "puts all his enemies under his feet."

riversident@1Corinthians:15:26 @ The last enemy to be defeated will be death.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:27 @ For "he subjected all things under his feet." But when it says, "all things have been subjected," it is plain that it means all things except God who subjected all things to him.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:28 @ But when all things have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If, humanly speaking, I fought wild beasts at Ephesus, what is my gain? If the dead do not rise, "let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die."

riversident@1Corinthians:15:33 @ Do not be led astray; "bad associations corrupt good morals."

riversident@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Return to soberness and cease to sin, for some are ignorant of God. I say it to your shame.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another flesh of birds, and another flesh of fishes.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also will be the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in decay; it is raised imperishable.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:45 @ Just as it is written, "The first man Adam became a living animal," the last Adam became a lifegiving spirit.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:49 @ And as we have borne the image of the earthly man, we shall bear the image of the heavenly man.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:51 @ I am telling you a mystery. We shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be transformed,

riversident@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet-call. For the trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be transformed.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:54 @ When this perishable has clothed itself with imperishability and this mortal has clothed itself with immortality, then will come to pass the word that is written, "Death has been swallowed up in victory.

riversident@1Corinthians:15:58 @ So then, my beloved brethren, be firm, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord; since you know that your labor is not fruitless in the Lord.

riversident@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of the week let each of you lay up at home something according as he may be prospering, in order that no collections may be going on when I come.

riversident@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be yoked up, like unmatched animals, with unbelievers. For what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness,

riversident@2Corinthians:6:15 @ or what harmony has Christ with Belial, or what share has a believer with an unbeliever?

riversident@2Corinthians:6:16 @ What agreement has the Temple of God with idols? For we are the Temple of the living God, as God said, "I will dwell in them and walk among them, and I will be their God and they shall be my people.

riversident@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore come out from the midst of them and be separate, says the Lord, and do not touch an unclean thing, and I will receive you

riversident@2Corinthians:6:18 @ and will be a Father to you and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord, the Ruler of all."

riversident@2Corinthians:7:1 @ HAVING then these promises, beloved, let us purify ourselves from every defilement of flesh or spirit, in reverence for God making our holiness complete.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For since we came to Macedonia our flesh has had no rest, but we have been distressed in every way, conflicts without, fears within.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not by his coming only, but also by the encouragement by which he was encouraged about you. He told us of your longing for me, your lamentation, your zeal in my behalf, so that I rejoice the more.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For such grief as God approves works a change of heart leading to salvation and is never to be regretted. But the grief of the world results in death.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, I did it not for the sake of him who did the wrong, nor for the sake of him who suffered wrong, but that your earnestness for us might be made plain to you before God.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:13 @ On this account we have been encouraged. In addition to this encouragement of ours, we rejoiced very much more over the joy of Titus because his spirit has been refreshed by you all,

riversident@2Corinthians:7:14 @ for if I have made any boast regarding you I have not been put to shame, but as we spoke everything in truth to you so our boasting over Titus turned out the truth.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his affections go out more strongly to you when he remembers the obedience of you all, how with reverence and trembling you received him.

riversident@2Corinthians:7:16 @ I am glad to be in every respect of good courage regarding you.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:1 @ I MUST tell you, brethren, of the grace of God that has been given to the churches of Macedonia,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:2 @ that in a great trial of distress their abundant joy and their deep poverty have abounded in the wealth of their liberality.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For according to their ability, I bear witness, and beyond their ability, of their own accord,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:4 @ with great urgency they begged of us the favor of fellowship in the service for the holy,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:6 @ Therefore we encouraged Titus that as he had begun so he should complete this grace among you.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:7 @ But as you excel in every way, in faith and speech and knowledge and in all earnestness and in the love you learned from us, be sure to excel in this grace also.

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

riversident@2Corinthians:8:10 @ In this I give my opinion, for this is advantageous for you, since a year ago you were first to begin not only the doing but the wanting to do anything.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:11 @ But now complete the doing, that as there was a readiness in willing so there may be a completion according to your means.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but by equality at the present time your abundance may supply their need so that their abundance may come at your need \'97 that there may be equality,

riversident@2Corinthians:8:16 @ Thanks be to God who puts into the heart of Titus the same interest in you.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he welcomed our appeal, but being unusually interested comes to you of his own choice.

riversident@2Corinthians:8:22 @ We are sending along with them also our brother whose earnestness we have tested many times in many ways, and who is now especially earnest because of his great confidence in you.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:3 @ I am sending the brethren that our boasting about you may not be proved in this matter an empty boast, so that you may be ready as I have said,

riversident@2Corinthians:9:4 @ and if any Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we, not to say you, may not be made ashamed of this confidence.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I think it necessary to urge the brethren to go on in advance to you and prepare before-hand your promised gift, that it may be ready as a gift and not as if extorted.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:6 @ Remember this, he who sows sparingly will reap sparingly and he who sows bountifully will reap bountifully.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You will be enriched in everything so that you will have all liberality which through our agency causes thanksgiving to God.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:13 @ By the proof afforded by this service men are led to glorify God for your fidelity to your profession of faith in the good news of Christ, and for the liberality of your contributions toward them and toward all.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:14 @ In their prayers in your behalf they pour out their longing love for you because of the surpassing grace of God that is upon you.

riversident@2Corinthians:9:15 @ Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift!

riversident@2Corinthians:10:1 @ I MYSELF, Paul, beg you by the gentleness and sweet reasonableness of Christ \'97 I who "to your face am humble when among you, but when absent am bold toward you" \'97

riversident@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I pray that I may not when present have to be bold with the confidence with which I expect to show my courage against some who think of us as living according to the flesh.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:5 @ We overthrow reasonings and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and take captive every thought into obedience to Christ

riversident@2Corinthians:10:6 @ and are ready to take vengeance upon every disobedience when your obedience is complete.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Look at what is right before your eyes. If any one is confident that he belongs to Christ, let him again consider this regarding himself, that just as he belongs to Christ so also do we.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For if I boast somewhat excessively of our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for pulling you down, I shall not be ashamed.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:10 @ Because, "His letters," they say, "are mighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak and his speaking amounts to nothing."

riversident@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such a person consider this, that what we are in words by letters when absent such we will be in deeds when present.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We will not boast beyond measure, but according to the measure of the measuring rod which God assigned to us, and that reaches as far as you.

riversident@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We are not boasting beyond measure in the labors of others, but we have hope that as your faith grows we may have larger influence among you according to our measure and beyond,

riversident@2Corinthians:10:16 @ so that we may tell the good news to the regions lying beyond you and not boast of things already done in some other man's territory.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:1 @ O THAT you would bear with me in a little foolishness. Yes, bear with me.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous over you with the jealousy of God, for I betrothed you to one husband to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I fear that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts may be led away from sincerity and purity toward Christ.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if some newcomer proclaims another Jesus whom we did not proclaim, or if you receive a different kind of spirit which you did not receive, or a different good news which you did not welcome, you bear with him finely.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Did I commit a sin when I humbled myself that you might be exalted, because I proclaimed to you the good news of God without pay?

riversident@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches by taking wages for serving you,

riversident@2Corinthians:11:9 @ and when I was with you and in need I was not a burden to any one, for the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied my need. In every way I kept myself from being a burden to you, and shall keep myself so.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:10 @ As the truth of Christ is in me, this boast of mine shall not be stopped in the region of Achaia.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:11 @ Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I am doing I shall do so as to cut away all ground of attack from those who wish ground, and that in what they boast of they may be found just like us.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:15 @ So it is no great thing if his servants too disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will be according to their deeds.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:19 @ for you who are wise bear pleasantly with the foolish.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:20 @ You bear it if any one enslaves you, if any one devours you, if any one takes possession of you, if any one exalts himself, if any one strikes you in the face.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:21 @ I say it with shame as if we had been weak. But in whatever any one is bold (note:)I say it foolishly(:note) I too am bold.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they servants of Christ? (note:)I speak as if I were out of my mind(:note) I superlatively \'97 in labors beyond measure, in prisons beyond measure, in floggings excessively, in deaths often.

riversident@2Corinthians:11:25 @ three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was ship-wrecked, a night and day I have been in the deep;

riversident@2Corinthians:11:26 @ in journeys often, in perils of rivers, in perils of robbers, in perils from my own race, in perils from Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the open country, in perils on the sea, in perils among false brethren;

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

riversident@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Even if I choose to boast I shall not be foolish, for I shall speak the truth. But I guard myself that no one may think of me beyond what he sees me to be, or hears from me,

riversident@2Corinthians:12:7 @ and because of the surpassing nature of the revelations. For this reason, that I should not be puffed up, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, an angel of Satan, to torment me, so that I should not be puffed up.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Regarding this I three times begged the Lord that it might leave me.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become foolish; you made me. For I ought to have been recommended by you. For in nothing have I been inferior to the most eminent apostles, even though I am nothing.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Now this third time I am ready to come to you, and I shall not be a burden to you. For I am not seeking yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up money for the parents, but the parents for the children.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:15 @ And I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you too much, am I loved the less?

riversident@2Corinthians:12:16 @ Be that as it may, I was not a burden to you. But being crafty I caught you with cunning?

riversident@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I begged Titus to go, and I sent along with him the brother. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit and walk in the same steps?

riversident@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Are you thinking all this while that we are defending ourselves to you? We are speaking before God in Christ. All this, beloved, is to build you up.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I am afraid that when I come I shall not find you such as I wish, and I myself may not be found by you such as you wish. I am afraid that there may be strife, jealousy, anger, rivalry, slanders, whisperings, conceit, disorders.

riversident@2Corinthians:12:21 @ I am afraid that when I come again my God may humble me in your presence, and that I shall grieve over many of those who have been long sinning and have not repented of the impurity and unchastity and sensuality which they have practiced.

riversident@2Corinthians:13:1 @ THIS third time I am coming to you. "By the evidence of two witnesses, or three, every matter shall be proved."

riversident@2Corinthians:13:2 @ Those who have been long sinning and all the rest I have forewarned and now forewarn, when I was present with you the second time and now when absent, that if I come again I shall not spare;

riversident@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Now, brethren, farewell. Be fully equipped; take courage; be of one mind; live in peace; then the God of love and peace will be with you.

riversident@2Corinthians:13:14 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

riversident@Galatians:1:5 @ To him be glory through the ages of the ages! Amen.

riversident@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should bring you any good news different from what we did bring you, let him be accursed!

riversident@Galatians:1:9 @ As I said before, I say now again, if any one brings you good news different from what you have received, let him be accursed!

riversident@Galatians:1:10 @ Am I now trying to please men or God? If I were still trying to please men I should not be Christ's servant.

riversident@Galatians:1:14 @ and I went further in Judaism than many of my own age and race, being intensely zealous for the traditions of my forefathers.

riversident@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and came back to Damascus.

riversident@Galatians:1:20 @ In what I am writing to you, before God I am not lying.

riversident@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up by revelation, and I stated to them the good news which I proclaim among the Gentiles. But I did this privately before those who were most esteemed, that I might not be running, or have run, to no Purpose.

riversident@Galatians:2:3 @ But even Titus, who was with me and was a Greek, was not compelled to be circumcised,

riversident@Galatians:2:4 @ though it was suggested on account of false brethren who had been brought in, who had crept in to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us.

riversident@Galatians:2:6 @ But from those who were esteemed to be something \'97 whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God does not regard the social standing of a man \'97 those who were most esteemed did not impart to me anything additional.

riversident@Galatians:2:10 @ Only they wished us to remember the poor. This very thing I also was earnest in doing.

riversident@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he had been justly censured.

riversident@Galatians:2:12 @ For before certain persons came from James, he was eating with the Gentiles. But when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

riversident@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not walking straight according to the truth of the good news, I said to Cephas before them all, "If you who are a Jew are living like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?"

riversident@Galatians:2:16 @ knowing that a man is not declared righteous because of works of law, but through faith in Christ Jesus, we also have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be declared righteous because of faith in Christ, and not because of works of law, for because of works of law no human being will be declared righteous.

riversident@Galatians:2:17 @ If while seeking to be declared righteous in Christ we ourselves are found sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Never.

riversident@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ. I am living, yet no longer I, but Christ is living in me. The life that I am now living in flesh I am living by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

riversident@Galatians:3:1 @ O THOUGHTLESS Galatians, who has bewitched you before whose eyes Jesus Christ was pictured crucified?

riversident@Galatians:3:2 @ Only this I wish to learn from you: Was it because of works of law that you received the Spirit, or because of hearing with faith?

riversident@Galatians:3:3 @ Are you so thoughtless? After beginning with spirit are you now finishing with flesh?

riversident@Galatians:3:5 @ He who supplies to you the Spirit and works miracles among you, is he doing it because of works of law or because of hearing with faith,

riversident@Galatians:3:8 @ For the Scripture, foreseeing that God would declare the Gentiles righteous because of faith, announced the good news in advance to Abraham, "In you all the Gentiles will be blessed."

riversident@Galatians:3:11 @ But that by law no one is declared righteous before God is plain, because, "He who is righteous by faith shall live."

riversident@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse for our sake, for it is written, "Cursed is every one who hangs on a tree,"

riversident@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then was the Law? It was added later to make transgressions, until the Offspring should come to whom the promise had been made, and it was arranged through angels by the hand of a mediator.

riversident@Galatians:3:20 @ A mediator does not belong to one person, but God is one.

riversident@Galatians:3:21 @ Is the Law then against the promises of God? Never! For if a law had been given which could give life, then really righteousness would have come by law.

riversident@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has shut up all under sin that the promise based on faith in Jesus Christ may be given to those who have faith.

riversident@Galatians:3:23 @ Before faith came we were guarded under law, shut up waiting for the faith that was to be revealed.

riversident@Galatians:3:24 @ Thus the Law became our tutor leading us to Christ, that we might be declared righteous by faith.

riversident@Galatians:3:27 @ All who have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

riversident@Galatians:3:28 @ There cannot be Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female: for you all are one in Christ Jesus.

riversident@Galatians:4:1 @ I SAY that as long as the heir is under age he differs in nothing from a slave, though he be owner of all.

riversident@Galatians:4:6 @ Because you are sons, God has sent into our hearts the Spirit of his Son crying Abba, Father.

riversident@Galatians:4:9 @ But now that you know God, or rather have been known by God, how are you turning back to the weak and beggarly elementary lessons to which you wish to be slaves again?

riversident@Galatians:4:12 @ Become like me, brethren, I beg of you, for I became like you. You have not wronged me in anything.

riversident@Galatians:4:13 @ You know that because of weakness of the flesh I told you the good news at first.

riversident@Galatians:4:15 @ Where now is the blessing you pronounced on me? For I bear you witness that if it had been possible you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me.

riversident@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

riversident@Galatians:4:18 @ It is honorable to be courted in an honorable matter always, and not only when I am with you,

riversident@Galatians:4:20 @ Would that I could be present with you now and could change my tone, for I am at a loss about you.

riversident@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you who wish to be under law, do you not hear the Law?

riversident@Galatians:4:24 @ This is an allegory. For these women are the two covenants, one from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery. This is Hagar.

riversident@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, "Rejoice, O barren one, you who do not bear! Break forth and shout, you who feel no birth pangs! For many are the children of the desolate \'97 more than those of her who has a husband."

riversident@Galatians:5:2 @ See, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no use to you.

riversident@Galatians:5:5 @ For we in the Spirit because of faith are waiting for the hope of righteousness.

riversident@Galatians:5:7 @ You were running finely. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?

riversident@Galatians:5:10 @ I am persuaded in regard to you in the Lord that you will have no other mind. He who is troubling you must bear his condemnation, whoever he may be.

riversident@Galatians:5:11 @ But I, brethren, if I am still proclaiming circumcision, why am I persecuted? Then the offensiveness of the cross has been done away.

riversident@Galatians:5:13 @ For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not let your freedom be an opportunity for the flesh, but in love be servants to one another.

riversident@Galatians:5:21 @ envyings, drinking bouts, revelries, and the like. Of these I tell you beforehand, as I have already told you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

riversident@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, slowness to anger, kindness, benevolence, faithfulness,

riversident@Galatians:5:24 @ Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its emotions and passions.

riversident@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us not be vainglorious, irritating one another, envying one another.

riversident@Galatians:6:1 @ BRETHREN, if a man is surprised in some sin, you who are spiritual are to restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, each looking out for himself to avoid being tempted.

riversident@Galatians:6:2 @ Bear one another's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ.

riversident@Galatians:6:5 @ For each must bear his own load.

riversident@Galatians:6:7 @ Do not be deceived; God is not mocked; what a man sows that he will also reap.

riversident@Galatians:6:10 @ So then as we have opportunity let us work for the good of all men, and especially of those who belong to the household of the faith.

riversident@Galatians:6:12 @ All who wish to make a fair show in the flesh are trying to compel you to receive circumcision, but only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

riversident@Galatians:6:13 @ For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the Law, but they wish you to be circumcised in order to boast in your flesh.

riversident@Galatians:6:16 @ All who walk by this rule \'97 may peace and mercy be on them, and on the Israel of God!

riversident@Galatians:6:17 @ For the future let no one trouble me; for I bear on my body the brands of Jesus.

riversident@Galatians:6:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirits, brethren. Amen.

riversident@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly heights in Christ,

riversident@Ephesians:2:5 @ even when we were dead in misdeeds, made us alive along with Christ \'97 by grace we have been saved \'97

riversident@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

riversident@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are his work, formed in Christ Jesus for good works in which God had prepared beforehand to have us live.

riversident@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that once you were Gentiles in the flesh and were called uncircumcision by the so-called circumcision in the flesh, made by hands,

riversident@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far have become near by the blood of Christ.

riversident@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand, then, belted with truth, wearing the breastplate of righteousness,

riversident@Philippians:1:6 @ being confident of this very thing, that he who has begun the good work in you will carry it on to completion on the day of Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:1:7 @ So it is right for me to think of you all, because you have me in your hearts, and in my chains and in my defense and in establishing the good news you are all sharers in my privilege.

riversident@Philippians:1:10 @ so that you may discriminate between the things that differ, that you may be pure and blameless in the day of Christ,

riversident@Philippians:1:13 @ so that my chains have become well known as for Christ to the whole Praetorian Guard and to all the rest,

riversident@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed proclaim Christ because of envy and rivalry, some also because of good will.

riversident@Philippians:1:20 @ according to my earnest expectation and hope that I may be put to shame in nothing, but with all courage, as always, so now Christ may be honored in my body, whether by my life or by my death.

riversident@Philippians:1:22 @ If it is to be life in the flesh, that means fruitful work for me. I know not which to choose.

riversident@Philippians:1:23 @ I am under pressure both ways, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for it is far better,

riversident@Philippians:1:26 @ that your exultation in Christ Jesus may overflow on my account, because of my presence again with you.

riversident@Philippians:1:29 @ because it has been graciously allowed you not only to believe in Christ but also to suffer for his sake,

riversident@Philippians:2:2 @ fill up my joy by having the same love, being of the same mind, thinking the same thing,

riversident@Philippians:2:4 @ Do not be each intent on his own interests, but also on the interests of others.

riversident@Philippians:2:5 @ Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

riversident@Philippians:2:6 @ who, though he was in the form of God, did not think that equality with God was something to be grasped,

riversident@Philippians:2:8 @ and when found in the condition of a man he humbled himself by becoming obedient even to death \'97 death on the cross.

riversident@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee may bow, of beings in heaven and those on earth and those under the earth,

riversident@Philippians:2:12 @ So then, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with reverence and awe.

riversident@Philippians:2:13 @ For it is God who is working in you both the willing and the doing because of his kindness.

riversident@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may be blameless and pure, children of God, spotless in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation among whom you shine as lights in the world,

riversident@Philippians:2:19 @ But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I may be cheered by knowing about you.

riversident@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know how he has been tested and how like a child with a father he has served with me in spreading the good news.

riversident@Philippians:2:26 @ since he longs for you all and is troubled because you have heard that he was sick.

riversident@Philippians:2:28 @ I send him the more readily that you may see him and rejoice again and I be less sorrowful.

riversident@Philippians:2:30 @ because for the work of Christ he was near to death, hazarding his life to complete the service you were not here to do for me.

riversident@Philippians:3:2 @ Beware of the dogs, beware of the bad workmen, beware of the excision.

riversident@Philippians:3:5 @ circumcised the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews, as to the Law a Pharisee,

riversident@Philippians:3:8 @ Yes, I count all to be loss because of the surpassing worth of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ

riversident@Philippians:3:9 @ and be found in him, not having my own righteousness that was from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God and rests on faith,

riversident@Philippians:3:12 @ Not that I have already obtained it or have already been made perfect, but I press on to lay hold of that for which I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.

riversident@Philippians:3:13 @ Brethren, I do not consider myself yet to have laid hold of it. But one thing I do: forgetting what is behind and stretching forward to what is in front

riversident@Philippians:4:1 @ SO, my brethren beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, stand firm thus in the Lord, beloved.

riversident@Philippians:4:2 @ I beg Euodia and I beg Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.

riversident@Philippians:4:5 @ Let your fairness be known to all men. The Lord is near.

riversident@Philippians:4:6 @ Do not worry, but in everything by prayer and entreaty with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

riversident@Philippians:4:9 @ What you learned and accepted and heard and saw in me \'97 practice that. And the God of peace will be with you.

riversident@Philippians:4:11 @ Not that I am speaking because of want; for I have learned how to be content in whatever circumstances I am.

riversident@Philippians:4:12 @ I know how to live humbly and I know how to enjoy abundance. In each and every situation I have been initiated into the secret both of being well fed and of going hungry, both of having abundance and of bearing want.

riversident@Philippians:4:15 @ You Philippians know that at the beginning of the good news, when I came away from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving except you only,

riversident@Philippians:4:20 @ To God our Father be glory for the ages of the ages! Amen.

riversident@Philippians:4:23 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirits!

riversident@Colossians:1:2 @ to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ in Colossae: Grace be to you and peace from God our Father!

riversident@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you. Just as in all the world it is bearing fruit and growing, so also it is among you since the day that you heard and learned of the grace of God in truth.

riversident@Colossians:1:7 @ So you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ in your behalf,

riversident@Colossians:1:10 @ and that you may live lives worthy of the Lord and please him in every way. May you bear fruit in every good work and grow in the knowledge of God.

riversident@Colossians:1:11 @ May you be strengthened with all strength according to his glorious power, so as to have all patience and endurance.

riversident@Colossians:1:13 @ He has saved us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son,

riversident@Colossians:1:17 @ and he is before all things and in him all things unite.

riversident@Colossians:1:18 @ And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that he may be first in all things,

riversident@Colossians:1:19 @ because it pleased God to have all his fullness dwell in him

riversident@Colossians:1:25 @ I became a servant of the church according to the commission from God given to me for you, to deliver fully God's message,

riversident@Colossians:2:2 @ that your hearts may be encouraged and that joined together in love you may reach all the wealth of the full assurance of insight into the knowledge of the mystery of God, which is Christ.

riversident@Colossians:2:8 @ Beware that no one carries you away captive by his philosophy and empty deceit according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary teachings of the world and not according to Christ.

riversident@Colossians:2:10 @ and you have been filled in him. He is the head of every archangel and authority.

riversident@Colossians:3:1 @ IF then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things above, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God.

riversident@Colossians:3:5 @ Treat the members of your earthly bodies as dead \'97 dead to unchastity, impurity, passion, evil desire, and avarice, which is idolatry.

riversident@Colossians:3:8 @ But now you also must put away all wrath, anger, malice, abusive language. Vile talk must not be in your mouths.

riversident@Colossians:3:10 @ and have clothed yourselves with the new self, which is being renewed into knowledge in the image of its Creator.

riversident@Colossians:3:15 @ Let the peace of Christ be umpire in your hearts. For this you were called into one body. And be thankful.

riversident@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

riversident@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh toward them.

riversident@Colossians:3:20 @ Children, obey your parents in everything, for this is pleasing in the Lord.

riversident@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey in everything your masters in the flesh, not with eye-service as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, because you reverence the Lord.

riversident@Colossians:3:25 @ He who does wrong will be repaid for the wrong he has done, and there is no partiality.

riversident@Colossians:4:2 @ Be earnest and constant in prayer. Be thankfully watchful in it.

riversident@Colossians:4:5 @ Behave wisely towards outsiders, buying up the opportunity.

riversident@Colossians:4:6 @ Let what you say be always with grace, seasoned with salt. Know how you should answer each one.

riversident@Colossians:4:7 @ Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful worker and fellow servant in the Lord, will tell you everything about me.

riversident@Colossians:4:9 @ And with him I am sending Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will tell you all about affairs here.

riversident@Colossians:4:11 @ and so does Jesus who is called Justus. These alone of those who are circumcised are my fellow workers for the kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.

riversident@Colossians:4:12 @ Epaphras, the servant of Christ Jesus, who is one of you, sends his greetings to you. He always wrestles in prayer on your behalf that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God.

riversident@Colossians:4:13 @ I bear witness to the burden that he carries for you and for those in Laodicea and those in Hierapolis.

riversident@Colossians:4:14 @ Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas send you their greetings.

riversident@Colossians:4:16 @ When this letter has been read among you, have it read in the church of the Laodiceans, and you are to read the letter that will come from Laodicea.

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ We know, brethren beloved by God, that he has chosen you

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ and that our good news came to you not in word only but in power and in the Holy Spirit and in great assurance, just as you know we acted among you for your benefit.

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ You became imitators of us and of the Lord, receiving the message in great affliction with joy which the Holy Spirit gave,

riversident@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ so that you became a pattern for all believers in Macedonia and in Achaia.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ but after we had suffered and been roughly treated, as you know, in Philippi, we made bold in our God to speak to you the good news of God with great wrestling.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ but as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the good news, so we speak, not as if we were pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we became gentle in the midst of you like a nursing mother cherishing her own children.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ Yearning over you so, we would gladly have imparted to you not only God's good news but our own lives as well, because you had become dear to us.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For you remember, brethren, our toil and labor as we worked night and day so as not to burden any one of you while we proclaimed to you the good news of God.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses \'97 and God is witness \'97 how purely and justly and blamelessly we acted toward you who believe.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ For this reason we unceasingly give thanks to God that when you received from us the report of the message of God you accepted it not as the message of men, but, as it truly is, the message of God, which also is doing its work in you who believe.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you became imitators, brethren, of the churches of God that are in Judaea in Christ Jesus, because you too suffered the same things from your fellow countrymen that they did from the Jews,

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ trying to prevent us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. All this goes always to fill up the measure of their sins. But God's fiercest wrath has overtaken them.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, when bereft of you for a little while, out of sight not out of mind, endeavored more earnestly to see your faces, with great longing.

riversident@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope or joy or crown to boast of before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ SO when we could no longer endure the anxiety, we chose to be left at Athens alone

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ that no one might be disturbed in these trials. For you yourselves know that we are destined to this.

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ we have been cheered, brethren, in regard to you, in all our straits and distresses by your faith.

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For how can we be grateful enough to God for you in view of all the joy we have because of you,

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ while we pray beyond measure night and day that we may see your faces and make good whatever lacks there may be in your faith?

riversident@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ that your hearts may be made firm and you may be blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his holy ones.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ TO conclude, brethren, we beg of you and urge you in the Lord Jesus that, as you learned from us how you ought to live to please God, and are living, you will excel still more.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God: to have you become holy and have you shun unchastity;

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ Regarding brotherly love you have no need for me to write to you. For you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another,

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ and to be ambitious to lead a quiet life and to mind each his own business and to work with your hands, as we instructed you.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ Thus you will live becomingly in the sight of outsiders and will have need of nothing.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ We do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, regarding those who are sleeping, that you may not sorrow as the rest of men who have no hope.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For since, as we believe, Jesus died and rose, so too God will through Jesus bring with him those who have fallen asleep.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ This we tell you by the word of the Lord: We, the living, who have been left until the coming of the Lord, will not have the start of those who have fallen asleep.

riversident@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we, the living, who are left, will be caught up along with them into the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall forever be with the Lord.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ You are all sons of light and sons of day. We do not belong to night or to darkness.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ Then let us not be sleeping like the rest of men, but let us watch and be sober.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day be sober. Let us put on the breastplate of faith and love and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ We beg you, brethren, to regard those who are laboring among you and who preside over you in the Lord and give you counsel,

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ and to esteem them very highly in love on account of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ We urge you, brethren, to warn the disorderly, encourage the faint-hearted, help the weak, be patient with all.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:16 @ Always be joyful.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace himself make you completely holy, and may your spirits and souls and bodies be kept faultless and blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ so that we ourselves glory in you among the churches of God because of your endurance and faith in all of your persecutions and in the distresses you are bearing.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ This is a proof of God's righteous judgment. It is to make you worthy of God's kingdom, on behalf of which you are suffering,

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to repay to you, who are being troubled, rest with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ With flaming fire he will inflict vengeance on those who do not know God and do not obey the good news of our Lord Jesus.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ They will suffer the penalty of eternal destruction and be sent away from the face of the Lord and from his glorious power,

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes to be glorified among his holy ones and to be wondered at on that day among all believers \'97 for our testimony to you was believed.

riversident@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, according to the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ WITH regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to meet him, I beg you, brethren,

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be quickly unsettled in mind nor excited by either a revelation or by a message or a letter supposed to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is close at hand.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one lead you astray in any way, because it will not come until the Apostasy has first come and the Man of Lawlessness has been revealed \'97 the Son of Perdition,

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that while I was still with you I used to tell you this?

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then the Lawless One will be revealed. But the Lord Jesus will sweep him away with the breath of his mouth and will make him powerless by the splendor of his coming.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ For his coming will be when Satan is active in every sort of power and in false signs and wonders

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and in every kind of wicked deception of those who are perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth so that they might be saved.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:11 @ For this reason God sends to them a deceptive influence so that they believe a lie,

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ that all who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness may be condemned.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ We ought always to thank God for you, brethren, beloved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through the Spirit's making you holy and your own faith in the truth.

riversident@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ Now then, brethren, stand firm and hold fast the teachings that you have been taught whether by our words or by our letter.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ IN conclusion, brethren, pray for us, that the Lord's message may run and be glorified, as among you,

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be saved from the unreasonable and wicked men, for faith does not belong to all.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:13 @ But you, brethren, must not become discouraged in doing well.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ If any one does not obey our words in this letter, mark that man and do not associate with him, so that he may be ashamed.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ The Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.

riversident@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you.

riversident@1Timothy:1:13 @ though before that I spoke profanely and was a persecutor and insolent in outrages. But I received mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

riversident@1Timothy:1:16 @ But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might show all of his long-suffering for an example for those who are to believe in him and gain life eternal.

riversident@1Timothy:3:8 @ Deacons, in the same way, must be dignified, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not eager for base gain,

riversident@1Timothy:3:10 @ They must first be tested, and then let them fill the office of deacon if there is nothing against them.

riversident@1Timothy:3:11 @ Women, in the same way, must be dignified, not slanderers, temperate, trustworthy in everything.

riversident@1Timothy:3:12 @ Deacons must be men true to one woman, presiding well over their children and their own houses.

riversident@Hebrews:2:6 @ But somewhere one says, "What is man that thou rememberest him? Or the son of man that thou carest for him?

riversident@Hebrews:2:17 @ And for that reason he had to be made like his brethren in everything, so as to be a compassionate and faithful high priest in things relating to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

riversident@Hebrews:3:3 @ For he has been thought worthy of more glory than Moses, just as he who has built a house has more honor than the house.

riversident@Hebrews:3:5 @ Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant for a testimony to the things that were to be spoken,

riversident@Hebrews:3:12 @ See to it, brethren, that there shall not be in any one of you a wicked, unbelieving heart ready to forsake the living God,

riversident@Hebrews:3:13 @ but encourage one another daily while it is called "to-day," that no one may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

riversident@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we become sharers with Christ if we hold firmly to the end the assurance with which we began.

riversident@Hebrews:3:19 @ We see that they were unable to enter because of their lack of faith.

riversident@Hebrews:4:1 @ LET us, then, be afraid that, though the promise of entering his rest is still left, some one of you may seem to have missed it.

riversident@Hebrews:4:2 @ For we have received the good news just as they did, but the message that was heard did not benefit them, since it did not meet with faith in the hearers.

riversident@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have faith are entering into the rest, as he said, "As I swore in my wrath, 'They shall not enter into my rest,' " although his works had been finished since the creation of the world.

riversident@Hebrews:4:13 @ There is not a creature invisible to him, but all things are naked and defenseless before the eyes of him to whom we must account.

riversident@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, for he has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet without sin.

riversident@Hebrews:5:1 @ FOR every high priest taken from among men is appointed in behalf of men in things relating to God to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

riversident@Hebrews:5:2 @ He is able to sympathize with the ignorant and the erring, since he himself is beset with weaknesses.

riversident@Hebrews:5:5 @ So too Christ did not take for himself the glory of becoming a high priest, but he who said to him, "Thou art my Son, to-day I have become thy Father,"

riversident@Hebrews:5:8 @ Although he was a Son he learned obedience from his sufferings,

riversident@Hebrews:5:9 @ and being thus made perfect he became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

riversident@Hebrews:5:11 @ Regarding Melchizedek we have much to say that is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.

riversident@Hebrews:5:12 @ For when, considering the time, you ought to be teachers you need to have some one teach you again the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk and not solid food.

riversident@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible for those who have been once for all enlightened and have tasted the heavenly gift and have become sharers in the Holy Spirit

riversident@Hebrews:6:7 @ For ground that drinks the rain that comes often upon it and bears plants useful to those for whom it is farmed shares in God's blessing;

riversident@Hebrews:6:9 @ But we are persuaded of better things regarding you, beloved, things that belong with salvation, though we thus speak.

riversident@Hebrews:6:12 @ that you may not be dull, but imitators of those who through faith and patience are inheriting the promises.

riversident@Hebrews:6:17 @ In this case God being abundantly willing to show to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable purpose of his will gave the surety of an oath,

riversident@Hebrews:7:11 @ If, then, perfection had been through the Levitical priesthood, \'97 for on the basis of that the people received the Law \'97 what need was there for another kind of priest to arise and not be called of the order of Aaron?

riversident@Hebrews:7:12 @ For when the priesthood has been changed there comes of necessity also a change of law.

riversident@Hebrews:7:13 @ For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has ever had anything to do with the altar.

riversident@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is plain that our Lord has arisen from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

riversident@Hebrews:7:16 @ who has become such, not according to the law of a commandment made for the flesh, but according to the power of unending life.

riversident@Hebrews:7:18 @ There is a setting aside of the earlier commandment because of its weakness and uselessness \'97

riversident@Hebrews:7:19 @ for the Law brought nothing to perfection \'97 and there is the bringing in of a better hope through which we draw near to God.

riversident@Hebrews:7:21 @ for those men have become priests without an oath, but he with an oath from him who said to him, "The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind: thou art a priest forever" \'97

riversident@Hebrews:7:22 @ by so much better is the covenant of which Jesus has become surety.

riversident@Hebrews:7:23 @ And many of them became priests because they were prevented by death from continuing,

riversident@Hebrews:7:24 @ but he, because he continues forever, has an unending priesthood.

riversident@Hebrews:8:1 @ THE chief point of what I have been saying is this: we have such a High Priest who has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of Majesty in the heavens,

riversident@Hebrews:8:4 @ If he were upon the earth he would not be a priest at all, since there are those who offer the gifts according to the Law.

riversident@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now Christ has obtained a ministry as much more excellent as the covenant of which he is mediator is better and based upon better promises.

riversident@Hebrews:8:7 @ For if that first covenant had been faultless a place would not have been sought for a second.

riversident@Hebrews:8:10 @ This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws into their minds and will write them upon their hearts and I will be their God and they will be my people.

riversident@Hebrews:8:12 @ and I will be merciful to their wrong-doings and their sins I will remember no more."

riversident@Hebrews:9:3 @ Behind the second curtain was the part called the Holy of Holies.

riversident@Hebrews:9:6 @ But these things being thus arranged, the priests go constantly into the first part of the Tent, performing their services,

riversident@Hebrews:9:8 @ The Holy Spirit shows this, that the way into the holy place has not yet been made plain while the first Tent is standing.

riversident@Hebrews:9:9 @ That is a symbol, for the time being, in accordance with which gifts and sacrifices are offered, though they cannot make the worshiper perfect in his conscience,

riversident@Hebrews:9:15 @ For this reason he is the mediator of a better covenant that, a death having taken place for redemption from sins under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the eternal inheritance promised to them.

riversident@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a last will and testament the death of the testator must be put in evidence.

riversident@Hebrews:9:19 @ When all the commands of the Law had been spoken by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled it on the book and on all the people,

riversident@Hebrews:9:23 @ It was necessary, then, that the copies of the things in heaven should be cleansed with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

riversident@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ did not enter into a holy place made by hands, a copy of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear before the face of God in our behalf.

riversident@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was once for all offered to bear the sins of many and will appear the second time, apart from sin, to those who are looking for him, and bring them salvation.

riversident@Hebrews:10:2 @ since would they not have ceased offering them? Because the worshipers, once for all cleansed, would have had no consciousness of sins.

riversident@Hebrews:10:17 @ "and their sins and their law-breakings I will remember no more."

riversident@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy who has trampled on the Son of God, who has thought the blood of the covenant, by which it was made holy, an unholy thing, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?

riversident@Hebrews:10:32 @ Remember the early days in which, after being enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings,

riversident@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you even suffered with the prisoners and accepted the plundering of your property with joy, knowing that you had a better and enduring possession.

riversident@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, for which he had witness borne to him that he was righteous, God testifying to his gifts, and by it, though dead, he still speaks.

riversident@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was taken from the earth so that he did not see death, and he was not found because God had taken him. For before being taken he had this testimony that he had pleased God.

riversident@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith it is impossible to please him. For he who comes to God must have faith that he exists and that he becomes the rewarder of those who seek him.

riversident@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, after receiving a divine warning regarding things as yet unseen, reverently built an ark for the saving of his household. Thus he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness of faith.

riversident@Hebrews:11:15 @ And if they had been thinking of that land from which they came they would have had opportunity to return.

riversident@Hebrews:11:16 @ But now they desire a better land, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them \'97 of being called their God; for he has prepared for them a city.

riversident@James:3:1 @ DO not, many of you, become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we will receive severer judgment.

riversident@James:3:3 @ If we put bits into the horses' mouths to make them obey us, we turn about their whole bodies.

riversident@James:3:5 @ Just so the tongue is a small member, but boasts of great things. Think how small a fire may be and yet how vast the forest that it may set ablaze.

riversident@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire, a world of wickedness. The tongue stands among our members as that which spots the whole body and sets on fire the wheel of nature and is itself set on fire by Gehenna.

riversident@James:3:7 @ For every kind of wild beasts and birds and reptiles and animals from the sea is tamed and has been tamed by human kind,

riversident@James:3:10 @ From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. This, my brethren, should not be so.

riversident@James:3:12 @ Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a vine figs? No more can salt water yield fresh water.

riversident@James:4:1 @ WHENCE come wars and whence come strifes among you? Is it not from your pleasures which carry on war in your members?

riversident@James:4:2 @ You long for something and do not have it. You murder and envy and cannot obtain it. You battle and war. You do not have, because of your not asking.

riversident@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask wickedly to waste it on your pleasures.

riversident@James:4:4 @ You adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity to God? Whoever chooses to be a friend to the world stands as an enemy of God.

riversident@James:4:9 @ Be sorrowful and mourn and lament. Let your laughter be turned into grief and your gladness into gloom.

riversident@James:4:10 @ Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you.

riversident@James:4:14 @ though you do not know what your life will be like on the morrow. For you are a vapor that appears for a little while and then disappears.

riversident@James:5:2 @ Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten,

riversident@James:5:3 @ your gold and silver are rusted over and the rust on them will be an evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire.

riversident@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the ground and is patient over it until he receives the early and the late rains.

riversident@James:5:8 @ You too must be patient. Keep your hearts steadfast, for the coming of the Lord is near.

riversident@James:5:9 @ Do not fret at one another, brethren, and then you will not be judged. The Judge is standing before your doors.

riversident@James:5:11 @ We call them blessed because they endured. You have heard of the patience of Job and have seen the end of the Lord's dealings with him, that the Lord is very tender and compassionate.

riversident@James:5:12 @ Above all things, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by the earth or by any other oath. Let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation.

riversident@James:5:15 @ The prayer of faith will save the sick and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins they will be forgiven him.

riversident@James:5:16 @ Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another in order to be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man has great power.

riversident@1Peter:1:2 @ chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father and made holy by the Spirit to obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace be to you and peace be multiplied.

riversident@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead \'97

riversident@1Peter:1:5 @ who are guarded by the power of God through faith for the salvation which is ready to be revealed on the last day.

riversident@1Peter:1:7 @ so that your tested faith, much more precious than gold that perishes though tested by fire, may be found to your praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed,

riversident@1Peter:1:11 @ inquired and searched, trying to find out what time, or what sort of time, the Spirit of Christ which was in them was disclosing when it witnessed beforehand regarding the sufferings of Christ and the glories to follow.

riversident@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in these things which now have been announced to you through those who have told you the good news by the Holy Spirit sent forth from heaven \'97 things which angels earnestly long to look into.

riversident@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore brace up your minds, be calm and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed.

riversident@1Peter:1:14 @ As obedient children, do not shape your lives by the passions that ruled you in the former days of ignorance,

riversident@1Peter:1:15 @ but, like the Holy One who has called you, become yourselves holy in all your way of life,

riversident@1Peter:1:16 @ for it is written, "You shall be holy because I am holy."

riversident@1Peter:1:20 @ who was foreknown before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the end of time for your sake

riversident@1Peter:1:22 @ Now that you have made your souls holy by obedience to the truth for sincere brotherly love, you must love one another steadily from your hearts,

riversident@1Peter:1:23 @ for you have been reborn, not from mortal seed but from immortal by the living and enduring word of God.

riversident@1Peter:1:25 @ but the word of the Lord endures forever." And this is the word of good news that has been brought to you.

riversident@1Peter:2:2 @ and, like new-born babes, long for the reasonable pure milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation,

riversident@1Peter:2:5 @ you also as living stones are built up, a spiritual house, and become a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

riversident@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore it is contained in Scripture, "See, I am laying in Zion a chosen stone, an honored corner stone. He who has faith in him will not be put to shame."

riversident@1Peter:2:7 @ To you who have faith is the "honor," but to the unbelieving "the stone which the builders rejected \'97 that has become the corner stone,

riversident@1Peter:2:8 @ a stone for the foot to strike, a rock to stumble over." Their feet strike the message because of their unbelief, and to this they were destined.

riversident@1Peter:2:11 @ Beloved, I beg you, as foreigners and resident aliens, to shun the passions of the flesh which war against the soul.

riversident@1Peter:2:13 @ Be submissive to every human institution for the Lord's sake, whether to the king as supreme,

riversident@1Peter:2:18 @ Household servants, be submissive with all reverence to your lords, not only to the good and fair, but also to the surly.

riversident@1Peter:2:19 @ For this is grace if for conscience toward God any one bears pain, suffering unjustly.

riversident@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you were called, because Christ too suffered for you, leaving you an example that you might follow in his foot-steps.

riversident@1Peter:3:1 @ IN the same way you wives are to be submissive to your own husbands, so that if any disbelieve the message they may be won over by the lives of their wives without argument,

riversident@1Peter:3:2 @ when they look at your pure, reverential behavior.

riversident@1Peter:3:3 @ Your adornment must not be of the external kind \'97 braiding the hair and putting on gold and wearing fine dresses;

riversident@1Peter:3:4 @ but the hidden personality of the heart must wear the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in God's sight most precious.

riversident@1Peter:3:6 @ as Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him Master. You have become her children when you do well and feel no terror.

riversident@1Peter:3:7 @ In the same way, you husbands must live with your wives wisely, since woman's sex is weaker, but you must give them honor as fellow heirs of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered.

riversident@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, all must be like-minded, sympathetic, full of brotherly love, compassionate, humble-minded,

riversident@1Peter:3:13 @ And who is it that will harm you if you become earnest for the good?

riversident@1Peter:3:14 @ But if you should suffer for being righteous, you are blessed. Have no fear of them and do not be disturbed;

riversident@1Peter:3:15 @ but exalt Christ as Lord in your hearts and be always ready to defend yourselves to every one who asks you to give account of the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.

riversident@1Peter:3:16 @ Keep a good conscience that, although you are slandered, those who misrepresent your good life in Christ may be put to shame.

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

riversident@1Peter:3:20 @ who were once disobedient, when the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah while the ark was being prepared, into which a few, that is eight souls, went and were saved through water.

riversident@1Peter:3:22 @ Now that he has gone into heaven he is at the right hand of God, and angels and authorities and powers have been made subject to him.

riversident@1Peter:4:6 @ And for this purpose the good news was told even to the dead, that they might be judged like men in the flesh, but live as God does in the spirit.

riversident@1Peter:4:7 @ The end of all things is near. Therefore be serious and sober and give yourselves to prayer.

riversident@1Peter:4:9 @ Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

riversident@1Peter:4:11 @ If any one speaks, let it be as uttering the oracles of God. If any one serves, let it be from the strength that God supplies. Thus in all things let God be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him be glory and strength for the ages of the ages! Amen.

riversident@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery fury that is among you, which has come to try you, as if some strange thing were happening to you.

riversident@1Peter:4:16 @ But if he suffers as a Christian he should not be ashamed, but should glorify God by that name.

riversident@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God. And if it begins first with us, what will be the end of those who disobey the good news of God?

riversident@1Peter:5:1 @ THE elders among you I beg \'97 I who am a fellow elder and a witness to the sufferings of Christ and a sharer in the glory soon to be revealed \'97

riversident@1Peter:5:2 @ I beg you to shepherd the flock of God that is among you, not because you must, but willingly, not for base gain, but eagerly,

riversident@1Peter:5:3 @ not lording it over your charges, but becoming examples to the flock.

riversident@1Peter:5:4 @ Then when the chief Shepherd appears you will be repaid with the never-fading crown of glory.

riversident@1Peter:5:5 @ In the same way you younger men must be subject to your elders. You all must put on the apron of humble service for one another. For God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

riversident@1Peter:5:8 @ Be sober, watch. Your enemy the Devil, like a roaring lion, goes about seeking some one to devour.

riversident@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him firm in the faith and knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being completed in your brotherhood throughout the world.

riversident@1Peter:5:11 @ To him be power for the ages of the ages! Amen.

riversident@1Peter:5:14 @ Salute one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you all in Christ.

riversident@2Peter:1:1 @ SIMON PETER, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have been allotted a faith as precious as ours:

riversident@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace be to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.

riversident@2Peter:1:4 @ and thereby great and precious promises have been granted to us, that through them you may escape the corruption that is in the world through passion and become sharers in the divine nature,

riversident@2Peter:1:8 @ For when you have these in abundance they make you to be neither idle nor fruitless regarding the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

riversident@2Peter:1:10 @ Therefore endeavor more earnestly, brethren, to make sure that you have been called and chosen. For while doing these things you will never stumble.

riversident@2Peter:1:11 @ For so entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly provided for you.

riversident@2Peter:1:16 @ For we were not following cunningly devised myths when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eye-witnesses of his majesty.

riversident@2Peter:1:17 @ For he received from God the Father honor and glory when such words as these were borne to him from the majestic glory, "This is my Son, the Beloved; in him I delight."

riversident@2Peter:2:1 @ BUT false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among yourselves, and they will craftily bring in deadly heresies, even disowning the Lord who bought them and bringing on themselves quick ruin.

riversident@2Peter:2:2 @ Many will follow their shameless ways and by these the path of truth will be profanely spoken of.

riversident@2Peter:2:3 @ In covetousness they will make gain out of you by their cunning words. But their condemnation from of old has not been inactive, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

riversident@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare angels that had sinned, but thrust them down to Tartarus and committed them to pits of darkness to be kept for judgment,

riversident@2Peter:2:10 @ especially those who go after flesh in polluting passions, and despise lordship. They are daring, self-willed; they do not tremble to speak insultingly of glorious beings

riversident@2Peter:2:11 @ even where angels greater in strength and power do not bring against them an insulting charge before the Lord.

riversident@2Peter:2:12 @ But they, like irrational creatures, born mere animals for capture and destruction, while speaking profanely of things they are ignorant of, will be corrupted by their own corruption,

riversident@2Peter:2:15 @ Leaving the straight path they have wandered away following the path of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness.

riversident@2Peter:2:16 @ But he was reproved for his sin; a dumb beast of draught, speaking with human voice, checked the madness of the prophet.

riversident@2Peter:2:19 @ While they promise them liberty they themselves are the slaves of corruption; for by whatever any one is overcome to that he is enslaved.

riversident@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they have been again entangled and overcome, their last state has become worse than the first.

riversident@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment that has been committed to them.

riversident@2Peter:3:1 @ THIS second letter, beloved, I am writing you. In both I have tried, by awakening your memory,

riversident@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying, "Where is his promised coming? for since the fathers fell asleep all things remain as they have been since the beginning of the creation?"

riversident@2Peter:3:8 @ Do not forget this one thing, beloved, that one day with the Lord is like a thousand years and a thousand years are like one day.

riversident@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. On that day the heavens will pass away with a loud noise and the burning elements will be dissolved and the earth and the things in it will not be found.

riversident@2Peter:3:11 @ Since all of these things are to be dissolved, what sort of persons ought you to be in holy lives and piety,

riversident@2Peter:3:12 @ you who are looking for and hastening toward the coming of the day of God, when the blazing heavens will be dissolved and the burning elements melted?

riversident@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, since you expect this, endeavor earnestly to be found by him in peace, spotless and faultless,

riversident@2Peter:3:15 @ and regard the long-suffering of our Lord as salvation, as also our beloved brother Paul has written to you, according to the wisdom given to him.

riversident@2Peter:3:17 @ You, then, beloved, since you know these things beforehand, be on your guard not to be led away by the error of the lawless and fall from your own steadfastness,

riversident@2Peter:3:18 @ but grow in grace and in knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory now and to the day of eternity!

riversident@1John:1:1 @ WHAT was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we looked upon and our hands touched \'97 it is about the Word of Life

riversident@1John:1:4 @ We are writing this that our joy may be complete.

riversident@1John:2:5 @ But whoever keeps his word, truly in him the love of God has been made perfect. By this we know that we are in him.

riversident@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am not writing a new command for you, but an old command, which you have had from the beginning. The old command is the message that you have heard.

riversident@1John:2:8 @ Again I am writing a new command, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true Light is already shining.

riversident@1John:2:11 @ He who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness and knows not where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

riversident@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven for his name's sake.

riversident@1John:2:13 @ I am writing to you, fathers, because you have come to know him who has been from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have conquered the Evil One. I have written to you, little children, because you have come to know the Father.

riversident@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, because you have come to know him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong and the message of God remains in you and you have conquered the Evil One.

riversident@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us, for if they had been of us they would have continued with us. But they went out so that it might be plainly seen that not all are of us.

riversident@1John:2:21 @ I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it and know that no lie is from the truth.

riversident@1John:2:24 @ Let what you have heard from the beginning remain in you. If what you have heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father.

riversident@1John:2:29 @ If you know that he is righteous, you know that every one who does righteousness has been born of him.

riversident@1John:3:1 @ SEE what love the Father has bestowed on us that we should be called children of God. And so we are. The reason why tho world does not know us is that it did not know him.

riversident@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, we are now children of God and it is not yet plain what we shall be. But we know that if he appears we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

riversident@1John:3:8 @ He who is committing sin is of the Devil, for the Devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this the Son of God appeared \'97 to undo the works of the Devil.

riversident@1John:3:9 @ No one who has been born of God commits sin, for God's life-giving germ remains in him and he cannot continue sinning, because he has been born of God.

riversident@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we must love one another.

riversident@1John:3:12 @ Not like Cain, who was of the Wicked One and killed his brother. And for what reason did he kill him? Because his own deeds were wicked and his brother's righteous.

riversident@1John:3:13 @ Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you.

riversident@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed from death into life because we love the brethren. Whoever does not love remains in death.

riversident@1John:3:20 @ because if our hearts condemn us God is greater than our hearts and knows all things.

riversident@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us we have confidence toward God,

riversident@1John:3:22 @ and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commands and do what is pleasing in his sight.

riversident@1John:3:23 @ And this is his command \'97 to believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another as he has given us command.

riversident@1John:4:1 @ BELOVED, do not trust every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are from God. For many false prophets have come out into the world.

riversident@1John:4:4 @ But you are of God, little children, and have conquered them, because he who is in us is greater than he who is in the world.

riversident@1John:4:5 @ They belong to the world and for that reason they speak as the world speaks and the world listens to them.

riversident@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and every one who loves has been born of God and knows God.

riversident@1John:4:10 @ In this is love \'97 not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

riversident@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God has so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

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

riversident@1John:4:14 @ We have seen and we bear witness that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.

riversident@1John:4:17 @ Thus love has been made perfect with us so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment, because as God is we also are in this world.

riversident@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has pain. He who fears has not been made perfect in love.

riversident@1John:4:19 @ We love because he first loved us.

riversident@1John:5:1 @ EVERY one who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and every one who loves the father who gave him life loves every one who has received life from that father.

riversident@1John:5:4 @ because all that is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith.

riversident@1John:5:5 @ Who is the conqueror of the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

riversident@1John:5:6 @ This is he who came through water and blood, Jesus Christ. Not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is the truth.

riversident@1John:5:8 @ For there are three that bear witness, the Spirit and the water and the blood, and the three are in accord.

riversident@1John:5:10 @ He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony within himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar; because he has not believed the testimony which God has borne regarding his Son.

riversident@1John:5:13 @ I am writing this to you so that you may know that you have life eternal, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.

riversident@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees his brother committing a sin that is not deadly, he must ask and God will give him life for those who are committing sin that is not deadly. There is sin that is deadly. I do not say that he should pray in behalf of that.

riversident@1John:5:18 @ We know that every one who has been born of God lives without sinning, but he who was born of God keeps him, and the Evil One does not lay hold of him.

riversident@2John:1:2 @ for the sake of the truth which remains in us and will be with us forever:

riversident@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

riversident@2John:1:5 @ And now I pray you, Lady, not as if writing a new command for you, but one that we have had from the beginning, let us love one another.

riversident@2John:1:6 @ This is love: to live by his commands. This is the command, as you heard from the beginning that you must live by it.

riversident@2John:1:11 @ He who bids him welcome becomes a sharer in his wicked works.

riversident@2John:1:12 @ I have much to write to you, but I will not do it with paper and ink. I hope to be with you soon and to speak face to face so that our joy may be complete.

riversident@3John:1:1 @ THE Elder to Gaius the beloved, whom I love in truth:

riversident@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, I pray that in everything you may prosper and be in health, just as your soul now prospers.

riversident@3John:1:5 @ Beloved, you do faithfully whatever work you do for the brethren, even when they are strangers,

riversident@3John:1:6 @ and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to help them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God.

riversident@3John:1:8 @ We ought to help such men so as to be fellow workers with the truth.

riversident@3John:1:9 @ I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who desires to be first among them, does not receive us.

riversident@3John:1:11 @ Beloved, do not imitate evil, but good. He who does good is of God. He who does evil has not seen God.

riversident@3John:1:12 @ Testimony has been borne to Demetrius by all and by the truth itself. We too bear testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.

riversident@3John:1:14 @ But I hope to see you shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to you. The friends send greetings to you. Greet the friends by name.

riversident@Jude:1:1 @ JUDE, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, to those who are in God the Father, beloved, kept for Jesus Christ and called:

riversident@Jude:1:2 @ Mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.

riversident@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, although I have been making every effort to write to you regarding our common salvation, I now find it necessary to write and urge you to contend vigorously for the faith that was once for all delivered to the holy.

riversident@Jude:1:8 @ Just so these dreamers defile the flesh, reject government, and speak abusively of glorious beings.

riversident@Jude:1:11 @ Alas for them! for they have traveled in the path of Cain, and for hire have rushed headlong into the error of Balaam, and have perished in the rebellious talk of Korah.

riversident@Jude:1:17 @ But you, beloved, remember the words which were long ago spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,

riversident@Jude:1:18 @ how they told you that in the latter time there would be scoffers living according to their own ungodly passions.

riversident@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,

riversident@Revelation:1:10 @ I became in the Spirit on the Lord's day and heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet,

riversident@Revelation:1:13 @ and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed in a robe that reached his feet, and girded across the breast with a golden girdle.

riversident@Revelation:4:2 @ Immediately I became in the Spirit. A throne was standing in heaven and on the throne One was sitting.

riversident@Revelation:4:5 @ From the throne issued lightnings and voices and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne. These are the seven Spirits of God.

riversident@Revelation:4:6 @ Before the throne there was as it were a glassy sea, like crystal. Near the throne and around the throne there were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.

riversident@Revelation:4:10 @ the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives for the ages of the ages, and they cast their crowns before the throne saying,

riversident@Revelation:4:11 @ "Worthy art thou, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for thou didst create all things and because of thy will they existed and were created."

riversident@Revelation:5:4 @ I wept much because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look into it.

riversident@Revelation:5:5 @ Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered and can open the book and its seven seals."

riversident@Revelation:5:6 @ Then I saw midway between the throne and the four living creatures and the elders a Lamb standing. He seemed as if he had been slain. He had seven horns and seven eyes which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

riversident@Revelation:5:8 @ When he took the book the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp and a golden bowl full of incense, which is the prayers of the holy.

riversident@Revelation:5:9 @ Then they sang a new song, saying, "Worthy art thou to take the book and to open its seals, for thou wast slain and didst ransom for God by thy blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

riversident@Revelation:5:10 @ and hast made them a kingdom of priests to our God, and they shall be kings on the earth."

riversident@Revelation:5:11 @ Then I looked and I heard the voices of many angels encircling the throne and the voices of the four living creatures and of the elders \'97 the number of them was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands \'97

riversident@Revelation:5:13 @ And every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all creatures in them, I heard saying, "To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and power for the ages of the ages."

riversident@Revelation:6:8 @ I looked and there came a pale yellow horse. The name of him who was sitting on it was Death, and Hades was following along with him. Authority was granted to them over one fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword and with famine and with pestilence and with the wild beasts of the earth.

riversident@Revelation:6:9 @ When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the sake of God's message and because of the testimony which they had borne.

riversident@Revelation:6:11 @ To each of them a white robe was given, and it was said to them that they must wait quietly yet a little while until the number of their fellow servants and their brethren was complete, who were yet to be killed as they had been.

riversident@Revelation:6:12 @ I saw when he opened the sixth seal and there came a great earthquake and the sun became black, like sackcloth of hair, and the moon became all like blood

riversident@Revelation:7:2 @ Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, with the seal of the living God. He cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it had been granted to harm the land and the sea

riversident@Revelation:7:4 @ I heard the number of those who were sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:

riversident@Revelation:7:5 @ Of the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand sealed, Of the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand,

riversident@Revelation:7:6 @ Of the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Naphtali, twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Manasseh, twelve thousand,

riversident@Revelation:7:8 @ Of the tribe of Zebulon, twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand.

riversident@Revelation:7:9 @ After this I looked and there was a great multitude which no one could count, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb clothed in white robes and with palms in their hands,

riversident@Revelation:7:11 @ And all the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God

riversident@Revelation:7:12 @ saying, "Amen. Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and strength be to our God for the ages of the ages! Amen."

riversident@Revelation:7:13 @ Then one of the elders spoke to me and said, "These who wear the white robes \'97 who are they and where have they come from?"

riversident@Revelation:7:14 @ I said to him, "My Lord, you know." He said to me, "These have come out of the great distress and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

riversident@Revelation:7:15 @ For this reason they are before the throne of God and worship him day and night in his Temple, and he who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.

riversident@Revelation:7:17 @ for the Lamb who is in the center before the throne will be their shepherd and will lead them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

riversident@Revelation:8:2 @ Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.

riversident@Revelation:8:3 @ Another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and much incense was given to him for him to put with the prayers of all the holy on the golden altar before the throne.

riversident@Revelation:8:4 @ The smoke of the incense from the hand of the angel went up with the prayers of the holy before God.

riversident@Revelation:8:8 @ The second angel sounded his trumpet and, as it were, a great mountain burning with fire was hurled into the sea. A third of the sea became blood

riversident@Revelation:8:11 @ The name of the star is called Wormwood. Then a third of the waters became worm-wood, and many people died from the waters because they had been made bitter.

riversident@Revelation:8:13 @ Then I looked and I heard an eagle that was flying in mid-heaven say with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe to those who are living on the earth, because of the rest of the trumpet-blasts which the three angels are soon to sound!"

riversident@Revelation:9:13 @ The sixth angel sounded his trumpet and I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar before God

riversident@Revelation:9:16 @ The number of the troops of cavalry was twice ten thousand times ten thousand. I heard their number.

riversident@Revelation:10:6 @ and swore by him who lives for the ages of the ages, who formed heaven and all things in it and the earth and all things upon it and the sea and all things in it, "There shall be no more delay,

riversident@Revelation:10:7 @ but in the days of the blast of the seventh angel, when he soon shall sound his trumpet, then the mystery of God has been finished, according to the good news that he gave to his servants the prophets."

riversident@Revelation:10:9 @ So I went to the angel and told him to give me the little book. He said to me, "Take it and eat it. It will make your stomach bitter, though in your mouth it will be sweet like honey."

riversident@Revelation:11:2 @ But the court outside the Temple omit and do not measure it, for it has been given over to the Gentiles and they will trample down the holy city forty-two months.

riversident@Revelation:11:4 @ They are the two olive trees and the two lampstands which stand before the Lord of the earth.

riversident@Revelation:11:5 @ If any one wishes to harm them fire comes from their mouths and consumes their enemies. If any one shall wish to harm them, in this way he must be killed.

riversident@Revelation:11:7 @ When they have completed their testimony, the Beast that is coming up out of the abyss will make war with them and conquer them and kill them.

riversident@Revelation:11:9 @ Men of all peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will look at their corpses three days and a half and will not permit their corpses to be placed in a tomb.

riversident@Revelation:11:10 @ Those who live on the earth will rejoice over them and make merry and send gifts to one another, because the two prophets tormented those who live on the earth."

riversident@Revelation:11:15 @ The seventh angel sounded his trumpet and there came loud voices in heaven saying, "The kingship of the world has become our Lord's and his Christ's and he will be king for the ages of the ages."

riversident@Revelation:11:16 @ Then the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God,

riversident@Revelation:11:17 @ saying, "We thank thee, Lord God Almighty, who art and wast, that thou hast taken thy great power and hast become king.

riversident@Revelation:12:4 @ and his tail dragged a third of the stars of heaven and hurled them to the ground. The Dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth to a child, so that he might devour the child as soon as it was born.

riversident@Revelation:12:10 @ I heard a loud voice in heaven say, "Now has come the salvation and power and kingship of our God and the authority of his Christ, because the accuser of our brethren has been hurled down, he who accuses them before our God day and night.

riversident@Revelation:12:11 @ But they have conquered him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of testimony to him, and they loved not their lives even to death.

riversident@Revelation:12:13 @ When the Dragon saw that he had been hurled to the earth he pursued the woman who had given birth to the man-child.

riversident@Revelation:12:14 @ Then there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle to fly into the wilderness to her place, where she shall be fed for a time and times and half a time, hidden from the view of the Serpent.

riversident@Revelation:13:1 @ THEN I stood on the sand of the sea and I saw rising out of the sea a Beast with ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten diadems and upon his heads were profane names.

riversident@Revelation:13:2 @ The Beast that I saw was like a leopard, but his feet were like a bear's feet and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The Dragon gave to him his own power and his throne and great authority.

riversident@Revelation:13:3 @ I saw one of his heads, as it were, mortally wounded, but the mortal wound was healed. The whole world followed the Beast in amazement,

riversident@Revelation:13:4 @ and they worshiped the Dragon because he had given such power to the Beast, and they worshiped the Beast, saying, "Who is like the Beast, and who can battle with him?"

riversident@Revelation:13:7 @ It was granted to the Beast to make war with the holy and to conquer them, and power was granted to him over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.

riversident@Revelation:13:8 @ All the inhabitants of the earth will worship him, all whose names have not been written from the foundation of the world in the slain Iamb's Book of Life.

riversident@Revelation:13:10 @ If any one is destined to captivity, into captivity he will go. If any one is to be killed by the sword, by the sword must he be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the holy.

riversident@Revelation:13:11 @ Then I saw another Beast coming up out of the land. It had two horns like those of a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon.

riversident@Revelation:13:12 @ It exercises all the authority of the first Beast in his presence. It compels the earth and its inhabitants to worship the first Beast whose mortal wound was healed.

riversident@Revelation:13:14 @ It leads astray the inhabitants of the earth because of the signs which it has been granted power to do in the presence of the Beast. It tells the inhabitants of the earth to make an image of the Beast which was wounded by the sword, yet lived.

riversident@Revelation:13:15 @ Power was granted to it to give breath to the image of the Beast, so that the image of the Beast spoke and it caused all who did not worship the image of the Beast to be put to death.

riversident@Revelation:13:17 @ so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark \'97 the name of the Beast or the number of his name.

riversident@Revelation:13:18 @ Here wisdom is required. Let him who has understanding count the number of the Beast; for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred and sixty-six.

riversident@Revelation:14:3 @ They sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been ransomed from the earth.

riversident@Revelation:14:6 @ Then I saw another angel flying in mid-heaven having eternal good news to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth, to every nation and tribe and tongue and people.

riversident@Revelation:14:9 @ Another angel, a third, followed them, saying in a loud voice, "If any one worships the Beast and his image and receives his mark on his forehead and on his hand,

riversident@Revelation:14:10 @ he also will drink of the wine of God's passion which has been mixed undiluted in the cup of his wrath, and he will be tortured in fire and brimstone in the presence of holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

riversident@Revelation:14:11 @ And the smoke of their torture will ascend for ages of ages and they will have no rest day or night \'97 those who worship the Beast and his image, and any one who receives the mark of his name."

riversident@Revelation:15:2 @ Then I saw what was like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had come victorious from the Beast and his image and the number of his name standing by the glassy sea with harps of God.

riversident@Revelation:15:4 @ Who will not reverence and glorify thy name, O Lord? For thou only art holy. All the nations will come and worship before thee, because thy righteous acts have been made manifest."

riversident@Revelation:16:2 @ The first went away and poured his bowl upon the land, and there came an evil and malignant ulcer on the men who had the mark of the Beast and those who worshiped its image.

riversident@Revelation:16:3 @ The second angel poured out his bowl upon the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man and every living thing that was in the sea died.

riversident@Revelation:16:4 @ The third angel poured out his bowl upon the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood.

riversident@Revelation:16:5 @ Then I heard the angel of the waters saying, "Just art thou who art and wast, the Holy One, because thou hast so judged,

riversident@Revelation:16:10 @ The fifth angel poured out his bowl upon the throne of the Beast, and his kingdom became darkened and men bit their tongues from pain

riversident@Revelation:16:13 @ Then I saw come out of the mouth of the Dragon and out of the mouth of the Beast and out of the mouth of the False Prophet three impure spirits like frogs.

riversident@Revelation:16:19 @ The great city was divided into three parts and the cities of the Gentiles fell. Then Babylon the Great was remembered before God \'97 to give to her the cup of the wine of his fierce wrath.

riversident@Revelation:16:21 @ And great hailstones each weighing about a hundred pounds fell from heaven on men. Men insulted God because of the hail, for the plague of it was great.

riversident@Revelation:17:2 @ and with whom the kings of the earth have committed lewdness, while the inhabitants of the earth have become drunk with the wine of her lewdness."

riversident@Revelation:17:3 @ He carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet beast covered with profane names, and with seven heads and ten horns.

riversident@Revelation:17:7 @ The angel said to me, "Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystic meaning of the woman and the beast with seven heads and ten horns that carries her.

riversident@Revelation:17:8 @ The Beast which you saw was and is not and will soon come up out of the abyss and go into destruction. And the inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written from the foundation of the world in the Book of Life will be amazed when they see the Beast that was and is not and will be.

riversident@Revelation:17:11 @ The Beast which was and is not is also himself an eighth, yet is one of the seven, and will go into destruction.

riversident@Revelation:17:12 @ The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received kingly power, but they will receive power as kings for one hour with the Beast.

riversident@Revelation:17:13 @ They have one mind and they give over their power and authority to the Beast.

riversident@Revelation:17:16 @ The ten horns that you saw and the Beast \'97 they hate the prostitute and will make her desolate and naked and they will devour her flesh and will burn her up with fire.

riversident@Revelation:17:17 @ For God has put it in their hearts to carry out his purpose, which is that they shall carry out one purpose and give their royal power to the Beast until the words of God are fulfilled.

riversident@Revelation:18:2 @ He shouted with a powerful voice, saying, "Babylon the Great has fallen, has fallen, and has become a habitation of demons and a stronghold of every impure spirit and a stronghold of every unclean and detested bird.

riversident@Revelation:18:5 @ for her sins have been heaped up to heaven and God has remembered her unrighteous deeds.

riversident@Revelation:18:8 @ For this reason in one day her plagues will come, death and woe and famine, and she shall be burned up in fire. For strong is the Lord God who has judged her.

riversident@Revelation:18:9 @ "The kings of the earth who have committed lewdness with her and have reveled luxuriously, when they see the smoke of her burning, will wail and beat their breasts.

riversident@Revelation:18:10 @ Standing afar because of their dismay at her torture, they will say, 'Alas, alas, O great city, Babylon the strong city, for in one hour your doom has come!'

riversident@Revelation:18:14 @ The ripe fruits for which your soul longed have gone from you, and all your dainty and splendid things are lost to you and they will never more be found.

riversident@Revelation:18:19 @ They threw dust upon their heads and shouted as they wept and wailed, saying, "Alas, alas, for the great city in which all who had ships on the sea grew rich from her wealth! For in an hour she has been desolated.

riversident@Revelation:18:20 @ Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you the holy and you apostles and prophets! For God has pronounced sentence in your behalf against her."

riversident@Revelation:18:21 @ Then one strong angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and hurled it into the sea, saying, "With such violence shall Babylon the great city be hurled down and she will never more be found.

riversident@Revelation:18:22 @ The music of harpers and musicians and flute-players and trumpeters will never more be heard in you. No master of any art will ever more be found in you. The sound of the mill will never more be heard in you.

riversident@Revelation:18:23 @ The light of a lamp will never more shine in you. The voices of bridegroom and bride will never again be heard in you. Your merchants were the great ones of the earth; for by your magic arts all the nations were led astray.

riversident@Revelation:18:24 @ In her was found the blood of prophets and of holy men and of all who had been slain on the earth."

riversident@Revelation:19:1 @ AFTER this I heard what seemed the loud voices of a great multitude in heaven saying, "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,

riversident@Revelation:19:7 @ Let us rejoice and be glad and give glory to him; for the marriage of the Lamb has come and his bride has prepared herself

riversident@Revelation:19:8 @ and it has been granted to her to be clothed in fine linen shining and pure." For the fine linen is the righteous acts of the holy.

riversident@Revelation:19:13 @ and he is clothed in a garment dipped in blood and his name has been called The Word of God.

riversident@Revelation:19:16 @ He has on his robe and on his thigh a name written, "King of kings and Lord of lords."

riversident@Revelation:19:19 @ Then I saw the Beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered to do battle with him who sits on the horse and with his army.

riversident@Revelation:19:20 @ And the Beast was captured and with him the False Prophet who did miracles in his presence and thereby misled those who received the mark of the Beast and who worshiped his image. The two were flung alive into the lake of fire that burns with brimstone.

riversident@Revelation:20:3 @ and flung him into the abyss and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he should not mislead the nations until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be loosed for a little while.

riversident@Revelation:20:4 @ Then I saw thrones, and men took their seats on them and the power to judge was granted to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony to Jesus and for God's message, and who had not worshiped the Beast nor his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. They lived and reigned as kings with Christ a thousand years,

riversident@Revelation:20:6 @ Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection! Over these the second death has no power, but they will be priests and kings of God and of Christ, and will reign with him the thousand years.

riversident@Revelation:20:7 @ When the thousand years are ended, Satan will be loosed from his prison

riversident@Revelation:20:8 @ and will come out to mislead the nations that are at the four corners of the earth \'97 Gog and Magog \'97 and gather them to battle in number like the sand of the sea.

riversident@Revelation:20:9 @ They went up over the breadth of the earth and encircled the camp of the holy and the beloved city. But fire fell from heaven and consumed them,

riversident@Revelation:20:10 @ and the Devil who was misleading them was flung into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the Beast and the False Prophet, and they will be tormented day and night for the ages of the ages.

riversident@Revelation:20:12 @ And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. And another book was opened which is the Book of Life. The dead were judged out of what was written in the books according to their deeds.

riversident@Revelation:21:3 @ And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "The Tent of God is with men. He will tent with them and they will be his people and he will be their God.

riversident@Revelation:21:4 @ He will wipe every tear from their eyes. Death shall be no more; neither shall there any longer be sorrow or wailing or painful toil; for the first things have passed away."

riversident@Revelation:21:6 @ He said to me, "They have come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To him who is thirsting I will give from the spring of the water of life freely.

riversident@Revelation:21:7 @ He who conquers shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be to me a son.

riversident@Revelation:21:25 @ and its gates will not be closed by day, and there will be no night there.

riversident@Revelation:22:2 @ In the space between the street and the river, on this side and on that, grew trees of life bearing twelve kinds of fruit, and yielding their fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

riversident@Revelation:22:3 @ There will no longer be any accursed thing. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it and his servants will worship him with holy rites.

riversident@Revelation:22:4 @ They will see his face and his name will be on their foreheads.

riversident@Revelation:22:5 @ There will not be night any more and they will have no need of lamplight or of sunlight; for the Lord God will shine upon them and they will be kings for the ages of the ages.

riversident@Revelation:22:11 @ Let the wrongdoer do wrong still, and let him who is filthy be filthy still, and let the righteous do righteousness still, and let the holy be holy still.

riversident@Revelation:22:20 @ He who bears this testimony says, Amen, come, Lord Jesus.

riversident@Revelation:22:21 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all!
