Romans:1:2 @Of which God had given word before by his prophets in the holy Writings,
bbe@Romans:1:5 @Through whom grace has been given to us, sending us out to make disciples to the faith among all nations, for his name:
bbe@Romans:1:8 @First of all, I give praise to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because news of your faith has gone into all the world.
bbe@Romans:1:9 @For God is my witness, whose servant I am in spirit in the good news of his Son, that you are at all times in my memory and in my prayers,
bbe@Romans:1:11 @For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;
bbe@Romans:1:12 @That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.
bbe@Romans:1:15 @For which reason I have the desire, as far as I am able, to give the knowledge of the good news to you who are in Rome.
bbe@Romans:1:16 @For I have no feeling of shame about the good news, because it is the power of God giving salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first, and then to the Greek.
bbe@Romans:1:17 @For in it there is the revelation of the righteousness of God from faith to faith: as it is said in the holy Writings, The man who does righteousness will be living by his faith.
bbe@Romans:1:18 @For there is a revelation of the wrath of God from heaven against all the wrongdoing and evil thoughts of men who keep down what is true by wrongdoing;
bbe@Romans:1:20 @For from the first making of the world, those things of God which the eye is unable to see, that is, his eternal power and existence, are fully made clear, he having given the knowledge of them through the things which he has made, so that men have no reason for wrongdoing:
bbe@Romans:1:24 @For this reason God gave them up to the evil desires of their hearts, working shame in their bodies with one another:
bbe@Romans:1:25 @Because by them the true word of God was changed into that which is false, and they gave worship and honour to the thing which is made, and not to him who made it, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it.
bbe@Romans:1:26 @For this reason God gave them up to evil passions, and their women were changing the natural use into one which is unnatural:
bbe@Romans:1:27 @And in the same way the men gave up the natural use of the woman and were burning in their desire for one another, men doing shame with men, and getting in their bodies the right reward of their evil-doing.
bbe@Romans:1:29 @Being full of all wrongdoing, evil, desire for the goods of others, hate, envy, putting to death, fighting, deceit, cruel ways, evil talk, and false statements about others;
bbe@Romans:2:1 @So you have no reason, whoever you are, for judging: for in judging another you are judging yourself, for you do the same things.
bbe@Romans:2:3 @But you who are judging another for doing what you do yourself, are you hoping that God's decision will not take effect against you?
bbe@Romans:2:4 @Or is it nothing to you that God had pity on you, waiting and putting up with you for so long, not seeing that in his pity God's desire is to give you a change of heart?
bbe@Romans:2:5 @But by your hard and unchanged heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of the revelation of God's judging in righteousness;
bbe@Romans:2:11 @For one man is not different from another before God.
bbe@Romans:2:13 @For it is not the hearers of the law who will be judged as having righteousness before God, but only the doers:
bbe@Romans:2:14 @For when the Gentiles without the law have a natural desire to do the things in the law, they are a law to themselves;
bbe@Romans:2:17 @But as for you who have the name of Jew, and are resting on the law, and take pride in God,
bbe@Romans:2:20 @A teacher of the foolish, having in the law the form of knowledge and of what is true;
bbe@Romans:2:24 @For the name of God is shamed among the Gentiles because of you, as it is said in the holy Writings.
bbe@Romans:3:5 @But if the righteousness of God is supported by our wrongdoing what is to be said? is it wrong for God to be angry (as men may say)?
bbe@Romans:3:9 @What then? are we worse off than they? In no way: because we have before made it clear that Jews as well as Greeks are all under the power of sin;
bbe@Romans:3:18 @There is no fear of God before their eyes.
bbe@Romans:3:19 @Now, we have knowledge that what the law says is for those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all men may be judged by God:
bbe@Romans:3:20 @Because by the works of the law no man is able to have righteousness in his eyes, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
bbe@Romans:3:23 @For all have done wrong and are far from the glory of God;
bbe@Romans:3:25 @Whom God has put forward as the sign of his mercy, through faith, by his blood, to make clear his righteousness when, in his pity, God let the sins of earlier times go without punishment;
bbe@Romans:3:27 @What reason, then, is there for pride? It is shut out. By what sort of law? of works? No, but by a law of faith.
bbe@Romans:3:28 @For this reason, then, a man may get righteousness by faith without the works of the law.
bbe@Romans:4:2 @For if Abraham got righteousness by works, he has reason for pride; but not before God.
bbe@Romans:4:7 @Happy are those who have forgiveness for their wrongdoing, and whose sins are covered.
bbe@Romans:4:9 @Is this blessing, then, for the circumcision only, or in the same way for those who have not circumcision? for we say that the faith of Abraham was put to his account as righteousness.
bbe@Romans:4:11 @And he was given the sign of circumcision as a witness of the faith which he had before he underwent circumcision: so that he might be the father of all those who have faith, though they have not circumcision, and so that righteousness might be put to their account;
bbe@Romans:4:12 @And the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who keep to the way of that faith which our father Abraham had before he underwent circumcision.
bbe@Romans:4:13 @For God's word, that the earth would be his heritage, was given to Abraham, not through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
bbe@Romans:4:14 @For if they who are of the law are the people who get the heritage, then faith is made of no use, and the word of God has no power;
bbe@Romans:4:15 @For the outcome of the law is wrath; but where there is no law it will not be broken.
bbe@Romans:4:16 @For this reason it is of faith, so that it may be through grace; and so that the word of God may be certain to all the seed; not only to that which is of the law, but to that which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all,
bbe@Romans:4:17 @(As it is said in the holy Writings, I have made you a father of a number of nations) before him in whom he had faith, that is, God, who gives life to the dead, and to whom the things which are not are as if they were.
bbe@Romans:4:18 @Who without reason for hope, in faith went on hoping, so that he became the father of a number of nations, as it had been said, So will your seed be.
bbe@Romans:4:22 @For which reason it was put to his account as righteousness.
bbe@Romans:4:24 @But for us in addition, to whose account it will be put, if we have faith in him who made Jesus our Lord come back again from the dead,
bbe@Romans:4:25 @Who was put to death for our evil-doing, and came to life again so that we might have righteousness.
bbe@Romans:5:1 @For which reason, because we have righteousness through faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
bbe@Romans:5:6 @For when we were still without strength, at the right time Christ gave his life for evil-doers.
bbe@Romans:5:7 @Now it is hard for anyone to give his life even for an upright man, though it might be that for a good man someone would give his life.
bbe@Romans:5:8 @But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.
bbe@Romans:5:10 @For if, when we were haters of God, the death of his Son made us at peace with him, much more, now that we are his friends, will we have salvation through his life;
bbe@Romans:5:12 @For this reason, as through one man sin came into the world, and death because of sin, and so death came to all men, because all have done evil:
bbe@Romans:5:15 @But the free giving of God is not like the wrongdoing of man. For if, by the wrongdoing of one man death came to numbers of men, much more did the grace of God, and the free giving by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, come to men.
bbe@Romans:5:16 @And the free giving has not the same effect as the sin of one: for the effect of one man's sin was punishment by the decision of God, but the free giving had power to give righteousness to wrongdoers in great number.
bbe@Romans:5:17 @For, if by the wrongdoing of one, death was ruling through the one, much more will those to whom has come the wealth of grace and the giving of righteousness, be ruling in life through the one, even Jesus Christ.
bbe@Romans:5:18 @So then, as the effect of one act of wrongdoing was that punishment came on all men, even so the effect of one act of righteousness was righteousness of life for all men.
bbe@Romans:6:5 @For, if we have been made like him in his death, we will, in the same way, be like him in his coming to life again;
bbe@Romans:6:10 @For his death was a death to sin, but his life now is a life which he is living to God.
bbe@Romans:6:12 @For this cause do not let sin be ruling in your body which is under the power of death, so that you give way to its desires;
bbe@Romans:6:14 @For sin may not have rule over you: because you are not under law, but under grace
bbe@Romans:6:17 @But praise be to God that though you were the servants of sin, you have now given yourselves freely to that form of teaching under which you were placed;
bbe@Romans:6:21 @What fruit had you at that time in the things which are now a shame to you? for the end of such things is death.
bbe@Romans:6:23 @For the reward of sin is death; but what God freely gives is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.
bbe@Romans:7:2 @For the woman who has a husband is placed by the law under the power of her husband as long as he is living; but if her husband is dead, she is free from the law of the husband.
bbe@Romans:7:5 @For when we were in the flesh, the evil passions which came into being through the law were working in our bodies to give the fruit of death.
bbe@Romans:7:7 @What then is to be said? is the law sin? in no way. But I would not have had knowledge of sin but for the law: for I would not have been conscious of desire if the law had not said, You may not have a desire for what is another's.
bbe@Romans:7:8 @But sin, taking its chance through that which was ordered by the law, was working in me every form of desire: because without the law sin is dead.
bbe@Romans:7:11 @For I was tricked and put to death by sin, which took its chance through the law.
bbe@Romans:7:14 @For we are conscious that the law is of the spirit; but I am of the flesh, given into the power of sin.
bbe@Romans:7:15 @And I have no clear knowledge of what I am doing, for that which I have a mind to do, I do not, but what I have hate for, that I do.
bbe@Romans:7:18 @For I am conscious that in me, that is, in my flesh, there is nothing good: I have the mind but not the power to do what is right.
bbe@Romans:7:19 @For the good which I have a mind to do, I do not: but the evil which I have no mind to do, that I do.
bbe@Romans:8:1 @For this cause those who are in Christ Jesus will not be judged as sinners.
bbe@Romans:8:2 @For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
bbe@Romans:8:3 @For what the law was not able to do because it was feeble through the flesh, God, sending his Son in the image of the evil flesh, and as an offering for sin, gave his decision against sin in the flesh:
bbe@Romans:8:5 @For those who are living in the way of the flesh give their minds to the things of the flesh, but those who go in the way of the Spirit, to the things of the Spirit.
bbe@Romans:8:6 @For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:
bbe@Romans:8:13 @For if you go in the way of the flesh, death will come on you; but if by the Spirit you put to death the works of the body, you will have life.
bbe@Romans:8:15 @For you did not get the spirit of servants again to put you in fear, but the spirit of sons was given to you, by which we say, Abba, Father.
bbe@Romans:8:19 @For the strong desire of every living thing is waiting for the revelation of the sons of God.
bbe@Romans:8:20 @For every living thing was put under the power of change, not by its desire, but by him who made it so, in hope
bbe@Romans:8:22 @For we are conscious that all living things are weeping and sorrowing in pain together till now.
bbe@Romans:8:23 @And not only so, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we have sorrow in our minds, waiting for the time when we will take our place as sons, that is, the salvation of our bodies.
bbe@Romans:8:24 @For our salvation is by hope: but hope which is seen is not hope: for who is hoping for what he sees?
bbe@Romans:8:25 @But if we have hope for that which we see not, then we will be able to go on waiting for it.
bbe@Romans:8:26 @And in the same way the Spirit is a help to our feeble hearts: for we are not able to make prayer to God in the right way; but the Spirit puts our desires into words which are not in our power to say;
bbe@Romans:8:27 @And he who is the searcher of hearts has knowledge of the mind of the Spirit, because he is making prayers for the saints in agreement with the mind of God.
bbe@Romans:8:28 @And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God, and have been marked out by his purpose.
bbe@Romans:8:29 @Because those of whom he had knowledge before they came into existence, were marked out by him to be made like his Son, so that he might be the first among a band of brothers:
bbe@Romans:8:31 @What may we say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
bbe@Romans:8:32 @He who did not keep back his only Son, but gave him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things?
bbe@Romans:8:36 @As it is said in the holy Writings, Because of you we are put to death every day; we are like sheep ready for destruction.
bbe@Romans:8:38 @For I am certain that not death, or life, or angels, or rulers, or things present, or things to come, or powers,
bbe@Romans:9:3 @For I have a desire to take on myself the curse for my brothers, my family in the flesh:
bbe@Romans:9:5 @Whose are the fathers, and of whom came Christ in the flesh, who is over all, God, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it.
bbe@Romans:9:6 @But it is not as if the word of God was without effect. For they are not all Israel, who are of Israel:
bbe@Romans:9:9 @For this is the word of God's undertaking, At this time will I come, and Sarah will have a son.
bbe@Romans:9:11 @Before the children had come into existence, or had done anything good or bad, in order that God's purpose and his selection might be effected, not by works, but by him whose purpose it is,
bbe@Romans:9:13 @Even as it is said, I had love for Jacob, but for Esau I had hate.
bbe@Romans:9:15 @For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and pity on whom I will have pity.
bbe@Romans:9:17 @For the holy Writings say to Pharaoh, For this same purpose did I put you on high, so that I might make my power seen in you, and that there might be knowledge of my name through all the earth.
bbe@Romans:9:21 @Or has not the potter the right to make out of one part of his earth a vessel for honour, and out of another a vessel for shame?
bbe@Romans:9:22 @What if God, desiring to let his wrath and his power be seen, for a long time put up with the vessels of wrath which were ready for destruction:
bbe@Romans:9:23 @And to make clear the wealth of his glory to vessels of mercy, which he had before made ready for glory,
bbe@Romans:9:28 @For the Lord will give effect to his word on the earth, putting an end to it and cutting it short.
bbe@Romans:9:29 @And, as Isaiah had said before, If the Lord of armies had not given us a seed, we would have been like Sodom and Gomorrah.
bbe@Romans:9:32 @Why? Because they were not searching for it by faith, but by works. They came up against the stone which was in the way;
bbe@Romans:10:1 @Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God for them is, that they may get salvation.
bbe@Romans:10:2 @For I give witness of them that they have a strong desire for God, but not with knowledge.
bbe@Romans:10:4 @For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who has faith.
bbe@Romans:10:5 @For Moses says that the man who does the righteousness which is of the law will get life by it.
bbe@Romans:10:10 @For with the heart man has faith to get righteousness, and with the mouth he says that Jesus is Lord to get salvation.
bbe@Romans:10:12 @And the Jew is not different from the Greek: for there is the same Lord of all, who is good to all who have hope in his name:
bbe@Romans:10:16 @But they have not all given ear to the good news. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has had faith in our word?
bbe@Romans:10:20 @And Isaiah says without fear, Those who were not searching for me made discovery of me; and I was seen by those whose hearts were turned away from me.
bbe@Romans:11:1 @So I say, Has God put his people on one side? Let there be no such thought. For I am of Israel, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
bbe@Romans:11:3 @Lord, they have put your prophets to death, and made waste your altars, and now I am the last, and they are searching for me to take away my life.
bbe@Romans:11:7 @What then? That which Israel was searching for he did not get, but those of the selection got it and the rest were made hard.
bbe@Romans:11:9 @And David says, Let their table be made a net for taking them, and a stone in their way, and a punishment:
bbe@Romans:11:15 @For, if by their putting away, the rest of men have been made friends with God, what will their coming back again be, but life from the dead?
bbe@Romans:11:21 @For, if God did not have mercy on the natural branches, he will not have mercy on you.
bbe@Romans:11:24 @For if you were cut out of a field olive-tree, and against the natural use were united to a good olive-tree, how much more will these, the natural branches, be united again with the olive-tree which was theirs?
bbe@Romans:11:25 @For it is my desire, brothers, that this secret may be clear to you, so that you may not have pride in your knowledge, that Israel has been made hard in part, till all the Gentiles have come in;
bbe@Romans:11:30 @For as you, in time past, were not under the rule of God, but now have got mercy through their turning away,
bbe@Romans:11:32 @For God has let them all go against his orders, so that he might have mercy on them all.
bbe@Romans:11:36 @For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever. So be it.
bbe@Romans:12:1 @For this reason I make request to you, brothers, by the mercies of God, that you will give your bodies as a living offering, holy, pleasing to God, which is the worship it is right for you to give him.
bbe@Romans:12:4 @For, as we have a number of parts in one body, but all the parts have not the same use,
bbe@Romans:12:8 @He who has the power of comforting, let him do so; he who gives, let him give freely; he who has the power of ruling, let him do it with a serious mind; he who has mercy on others, let it be with joy.
bbe@Romans:12:10 @Be kind to one another with a brother's love, putting others before yourselves in honour;
bbe@Romans:12:17 @Do not give evil for evil to any man. Let all your business be well ordered in the eyes of all men.
bbe@Romans:12:18 @As far as it is possible for you be at peace with all men.
bbe@Romans:12:19 @Do not give punishment for wrongs done to you, dear brothers, but give way to the wrath of God; for it is said in the holy Writings, Punishment is mine, I will give reward, says the Lord.
bbe@Romans:12:20 @But if one who has hate for you is in need of food or of drink, give it to him, for in so doing you will put coals of fire on his head.
bbe@Romans:13:2 @For which reason everyone who puts himself against the authority puts himself against the order of God: and those who are against it will get punishment for themselves.
bbe@Romans:13:3 @For rulers are not a cause of fear to the good work but to the evil. If you would have no fear of the authority, do good and you will have praise;
bbe@Romans:13:4 @For he is the servant of God to you for good. But if you do evil, have fear; for the sword is not in his hand for nothing: he is God's servant, making God's punishment come on the evil-doer.
bbe@Romans:13:5 @So put yourselves under the authority, not for fear of wrath, but because you have the knowledge of what is right.
bbe@Romans:13:6 @For the same reason, make payment of taxes; because the authority is God's servant, to take care of such things at all times.
bbe@Romans:13:8 @Be in debt for nothing, but to have love for one another: for he who has love for his neighbour has kept all the law.
bbe@Romans:13:9 @And this, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not put to death, Do not take what is another's, Do not have desire for what is another's, and if there is any other order, it is covered by this word, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.
bbe@Romans:13:11 @See then that the time has come for you to be awake from sleep: for now is your salvation nearer than when you first had faith.
bbe@Romans:14:3 @Let not him who takes food have a low opinion of him who does not: and let not him who does not take food be a judge of him who does; for he has God's approval.
bbe@Romans:14:4 @Who are you to make yourself a judge of another man's servant? it is to his master that he is responsible for good or bad. Yes, his place will be safe, because the Lord is able to keep him from falling.
bbe@Romans:14:5 @This man puts one day before another: to that man they are the same. Let every man be certain in his mind.
bbe@Romans:14:6 @He who keeps the day, keeps it to the Lord; and he who takes food, takes it as to the Lord, for he gives praise to God; and he who does not take food, to the Lord he takes it not, and gives praise to God.
bbe@Romans:14:7 @For every man's life and every man's death has a relation to others as well as to himself.
bbe@Romans:14:9 @And for this purpose Christ went into death and came back again, that he might be the Lord of the dead and of the living.
bbe@Romans:14:10 @But you, why do you make yourself your brother's judge? or again, why have you no respect for your brother? because we will all have to take our place before God as our judge.
bbe@Romans:14:11 @For it is said in the holy Writings, By my life, says the Lord, to me every knee will be bent, and every tongue will give worship to God.
bbe@Romans:14:13 @Then let us not be judges of one another any longer: but keep this in mind, that no man is to make it hard for his brother, or give him cause for doubting.
bbe@Romans:14:14 @I am conscious of this, and am certain in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself; but for the man in whose opinion it is unclean, for him it is unclean.
bbe@Romans:14:15 @And if because of food your brother is troubled, then you are no longer going on in the way of love. Do not let your food be destruction to him for whom Christ went into death.
bbe@Romans:14:16 @Let it not be possible for men to say evil about your good:
bbe@Romans:14:17 @For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit
bbe@Romans:14:20 @Do not let the work of God come to nothing on account of food. All things are certainly clean; but it is evil for that man who by taking food makes it hard for another.
bbe@Romans:14:22 @The faith which you have, have it to yourself before God. Happy is the man who is not judged by that to which he gives approval.
bbe@Romans:15:2 @Let every one of us give pleasure to his neighbour for his good, to make him strong.
bbe@Romans:15:3 @For Christ did not give pleasure to himself, but, as it is said, The bitter words of those who were angry with you came on me.
bbe@Romans:15:4 @Now those things which were put down in writing before our time were for our learning, so that through quiet waiting and through the comfort of the holy Writings we might have hope.
bbe@Romans:15:5 @Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:
bbe@Romans:15:9 @And so that the Gentiles might give glory to God for his mercy; as it is said, For this reason I will give praise to you among the Gentiles, and I will make a song to your name.
bbe@Romans:15:15 @But I have, in some measure, less fear in writing to you to put these things before you again, because of the grace which was given to me by God,
bbe@Romans:15:22 @For which reason I was frequently kept from coming to you:
bbe@Romans:15:23 @But now, having no longer any place in these parts and having had for a number of years a great desire to come to you,
bbe@Romans:15:24 @Whenever I go to Spain (for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company)--
bbe@Romans:15:25 @But now I go to Jerusalem, taking help for the saints.
bbe@Romans:15:26 @For it has been the good pleasure of those of Macedonia and Achaia to send a certain amount of money for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem.
bbe@Romans:15:27 @Yes, it has been their good pleasure; and they are in their debt. For if the Gentiles have had a part in the things of the Spirit which were theirs, it is right for them, in the same way, to give them help in the things of the flesh.
bbe@Romans:15:30 @Now I make request to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you will be working together with me in your prayers to God for me;
bbe@Romans:15:31 @So that I may be kept safe from those in Judaea who have not put themselves under the rule of God, and that the help which I am taking for Jerusalem may be pleasing to the saints;
bbe@Romans:16:1 @It is my desire to say a good word for Phoebe, who is a servant of the church in Cenchreae:
bbe@Romans:16:4 @Who for my life put their necks in danger; to whom not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are in debt:
bbe@Romans:16:7 @Give my love to Andronicus and Junia, my relations, who were in prison with me, who are noted among the Apostles, and who were in Christ before me.
bbe@Romans:16:18 @For such people are not servants of the Lord Christ, but of their stomachs; and by their smooth and well-said words the hearts of those who have no knowledge of evil are tricked.
bbe@Romans:16:19 @For all have knowledge of how you do what you are ordered. For this reason I have joy in you, but it is my desire that you may be wise in what is good, and without knowledge of evil.
bbe@Romans:16:20 @And the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet before long. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
bbe@Romans:16:27 @To the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be the glory for ever. So be it.
bbe@1Corinthians:1:4 @I give praise to my God for you at all times, because of the grace of God which has been given to you in Christ Jesus;
bbe@1Corinthians:1:13 @Is there a division in Christ? was Paul nailed to the cross for you? or were you given baptism in the name of Paul?
bbe@1Corinthians:1:17 @For Christ sent me, not to give baptism, but to be a preacher of the good news: not with wise words, for fear that the cross of Christ might be made of no value.
bbe@1Corinthians:1:18 @For the word of the cross seems foolish to those who are on the way to destruction; but to us who are on the way to salvation it is the power of God.
bbe@1Corinthians:1:21 @For because, by the purpose of God, the world, with all its wisdom, had not the knowledge of God, it was God's pleasure, by so foolish a thing as preaching, to give salvation to those who had faith in him.
bbe@1Corinthians:1:22 @Seeing that the Jews make request for signs, and the Greeks are looking for knowledge:
bbe@1Corinthians:1:26 @For you see God's design for you, my brothers, that he has not taken a great number of the wise after the flesh, not the strong, not the noble:
bbe@1Corinthians:1:29 @So that no flesh might have glory before God.
bbe@1Corinthians:1:31 @So that, as it is said in the holy Writings, Whoever has a desire for glory, let his glory be in the Lord.
bbe@1Corinthians:2:1 @And when I came to you, my brothers, I did not come with wise words of knowledge, putting before you the secret of God.
bbe@1Corinthians:2:2 @For I had made the decision to have knowledge of nothing among you but only of Jesus Christ on the cross.
bbe@1Corinthians:2:6 @But still we have wisdom for those who are complete in knowledge, though not the wisdom of this world, and not of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing:
bbe@1Corinthians:2:7 @But we give the news of the secret wisdom of God, which he had kept in store before the world came into existence, for our glory;
bbe@1Corinthians:2:8 @Of which not one of the rulers of this world had knowledge: for if they had, they would not have put the Lord of glory on the cross:
bbe@1Corinthians:2:9 @But as it says in the holy Writings, Things which the eye saw not, and which had not come to the ears or into the heart of man, such things as God has made ready for those who have love for him.
bbe@1Corinthians:2:10 @But God has given us the revelation of these things through his Spirit, for the Spirit makes search into all things, even the deep things of God.
bbe@1Corinthians:2:11 @For who has knowledge of the things of a man but the spirit of the man which is in him? in the same way, no one has knowledge of the things of God but the Spirit of God.
bbe@1Corinthians:2:14 @For the natural man is not able to take in the things of the Spirit of God: for they seem foolish to him, and he is not able to have knowledge of them, because such knowledge comes only through the Spirit.
bbe@1Corinthians:2:16 @For who has knowledge of the mind of the Lord, so as to be his teacher? But we have the mind of Christ.
bbe@1Corinthians:3:3 @Because you are still in the flesh: for when there is envy and division among you, are you not still walking after the way of the flesh, even as natural men?
bbe@1Corinthians:3:4 @For when one says, I am of Paul; and another says, I am of Apollos; are you not talking like natural men?
bbe@1Corinthians:3:8 @Now the planter and the waterer are working for the same end: but they will have their separate rewards in the measure of their work.
bbe@1Corinthians:3:9 @For we are workers with God: you are God's planting, God's building.
bbe@1Corinthians:3:11 @For there is no other base for the building but that which has been put down, which is Jesus Christ.
bbe@1Corinthians:3:17 @If anyone makes the house of God unclean, God will put an end to him; for the house of God is holy, and you are his house.
bbe@1Corinthians:3:19 @For the wisdom of this world is foolish before God. As it is said in the holy Writings, He who takes the wise in their secret designs:
bbe@1Corinthians:3:21 @So let no one take pride in men. For all things are yours;
bbe@1Corinthians:4:1 @Let us be judged as servants of Christ, and as those who are responsible for the secret things of God.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:2 @And it is right for such servants to be safe persons.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:4 @For I am not conscious of any wrong in myself; but this does not make me clear, for it is the Lord who is my judge.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:5 @For this reason let there be no judging before the time, till the Lord comes, who will make clear the secret things of the dark, and the designs of the heart; and then will every man have his praise from God.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:7 @For who made you better than your brother? or what have you that has not been given to you? but if it has been given to you, what cause have you for pride, as if it had not been given to you?
bbe@1Corinthians:4:8 @For even now you are full, even now you have wealth, you have been made kings without us: truly, I would be glad if you were kings, so that we might be kings with you.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:9 @For it seems to me that God has put us the Apostles last of all, as men whose fate is death: for we are put on view to the world, and to angels, and to men.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:10 @We are made to seem foolish for Christ, but you are wise in Christ; we are feeble, but you are strong; you have glory, but we have shame
bbe@1Corinthians:4:13 @When evil things are said about us we give gentle answers: we are made as the unclean things of the world, as that for which no one has any use, even till now.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:15 @For even if you had ten thousand teachers in Christ, you have not more than one father: for in Christ Jesus I have given birth to you through the good news.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:17 @For this cause I have sent Timothy to you, who is my dear and true child in the Lord; he will make clear to you my ways in Christ, even as I am teaching everywhere in every church.
bbe@1Corinthians:4:20 @For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power.
bbe@1Corinthians:5:3 @For I myself, being present in spirit though not in body, have come to a decision about him who has done this thing;
bbe@1Corinthians:5:5 @That this man is to be handed over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may have forgiveness in the day of the Lord Jesus.
bbe@1Corinthians:5:7 @Take away, then, the old leaven, so that you may be a new mass, even as you are without leaven. For Christ has been put to death as our Passover.
bbe@1Corinthians:5:10 @But I had not in mind the sinners who are outside the church, or those who have a desire for and take the property of others, or those who give worship to images; for it is not possible to keep away from such people without going out of the world completely:
bbe@1Corinthians:5:11 @But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.
bbe@1Corinthians:5:12 @For it is no business of mine to be judging those who are outside; but it is yours to be judging those who are among you;
bbe@1Corinthians:5:13 @As for those who are outside, God is their judge. So put away the evil man from among you.
bbe@1Corinthians:6:1 @How is it, that if any one of you has a cause at law against another, he takes it before a Gentile judge and not before the saints?
bbe@1Corinthians:6:6 @But a brother who has a cause at law against another takes it before Gentile judges.
bbe@1Corinthians:6:10 @Or is a thief, or the worse for drink, or makes use of strong language, or takes by force what is not his, will have any part in the kingdom of God.
bbe@1Corinthians:6:13 @Food is for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will put an end to them together. But the body is not for the desires of the flesh, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body:
bbe@1Corinthians:6:14 @And God who made the Lord Jesus come back from the dead will do the same for us by his power
bbe@1Corinthians:6:16 @Or do you not see that he who is joined to a loose woman is one body with her? for God has said, The two of them will become one flesh.
bbe@1Corinthians:6:19 @Or are you not conscious that your body is a house for the Holy Spirit which is in you, and which has been given to you by God? and you are not the owners of yourselves;
bbe@1Corinthians:6:20 @For a payment has been made for you: let God be honoured in your body.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:1 @Now, as to the things in your letter to me: It is good for a man to have nothing to do with a woman.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:5 @Do not keep back from one another what is right, but only for a short time, and by agreement, so that you may give yourselves to prayer, and come together again; so that Satan may not get the better of you through your loss of self-control.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:8 @But I say to the unmarried and to the widows, It is good for them to be even as I am.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:9 @But if they have not self-control let them get married; for married life is better than the burning of desire.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:14 @For the husband who has not faith is made holy through his Christian wife, and the wife who is not a Christian is made holy through the brother: if not, your children would be unholy, but now are they holy.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:15 @But if the one who is not a Christian has a desire to go away, let it be so: the brother or the sister in such a position is not forced to do one thing or the other: but it is God's pleasure that we may be at peace with one another.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:16 @For how may you be certain, O wife, that you will not be the cause of salvation to your husband? or you, O husband, that you may not do the same for your wife?
bbe@1Corinthians:7:17 @Only, as the Lord has given to a man, and as is the purpose of God for him, so let him go on living. And these are my orders for all the churches.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:22 @For he who was a servant when he became a Christian is the Lord's free man; and he who was free when he became a Christian is the Lord's servant.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:23 @It is the Lord who has made payment for you: be not servants of men.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:24 @My brothers, let every man keep in that condition which is the purpose of God for him.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:26 @In my opinion then, because of the present trouble, it is good for a man to keep as he is.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:29 @But I say this, my brothers, the time is short; and from now it will be wise for those who have wives to be as if they had them not;
bbe@1Corinthians:7:30 @And for those who are in sorrow, to give no signs of it; and for those who are glad, to give no signs of joy; and for those who are getting property, to be as if they had nothing;
bbe@1Corinthians:7:31 @And for those who make use of the world, not to be using it fully; for this world's way of life will quickly come to an end.
bbe@1Corinthians:7:32 @But it is my desire for you to be free from cares. The unmarried man gives his mind to the things of the Lord, how he may give pleasure to the Lord:
bbe@1Corinthians:7:34 @And the wife is not the same as the virgin. The virgin gives her mind to the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but the married woman takes thought for the things of the world, how she may give pleasure to her husband.![[pBiblx2]](/img/pbiblx2_logo3.png){kind=logo}
