rkjnt@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,

rkjnt@Romans:1:3 @ Concerning his Son, who was born a descendant of David according to the flesh;

rkjnt@Romans:1:4 @ And through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by the resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord,

rkjnt@Romans:1:5 @ By whom we have received grace and apostleship, to bring about the obedience of faith among all the nations, for his name's sake;

rkjnt@Romans:1:6 @ And you also are among those called to belong to Jesus Christ:

rkjnt@Romans:1:7 @ To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@Romans:1:10 @ Making request, that by some means I might now at last, by the will of God, succeed in coming to you.

rkjnt@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so you may be established;

rkjnt@Romans:1:12 @ That is, that we may together be comforted, each by the other's faith, both yours and mine.

rkjnt@Romans:1:13 @ Now I would not have you be ignorant, brethren, that I often intended to come to you, (but was prevented until now,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other Gentiles.

rkjnt@Romans:1:14 @ I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the barbarians; both to the wise, and to the foolish.

rkjnt@Romans:1:15 @ So, for my part, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.

rkjnt@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

rkjnt@Romans:1:17 @ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

rkjnt@Romans:1:19 @ Because that which may be known about God is evident to them; for God has shown it to them.

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

rkjnt@Romans:1:22 @ Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

rkjnt@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God gave them up, through the lusts of their own hearts, to sexual impurity, to dishonour their own bodies among themselves:

rkjnt@Romans:1:25 @ Because they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

rkjnt@Romans:1:26 @ For this cause God gave them up to vile affections: for even their women exchanged natural relations for that which is against nature:

rkjnt@Romans:1:27 @ And likewise the men, leaving their natural relations with woman, burned in their lust toward one another; men with men doing that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

rkjnt@Romans:1:28 @ And as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper.

rkjnt@Romans:1:29 @ They were filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malevolence; whisperers,

rkjnt@Romans:1:30 @ Slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

rkjnt@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience; not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?

rkjnt@Romans:2:5 @ But because of your hard and unrepentant heart you are storing up for yourself wrath on the day of wrath when the righteous judgment of God shall be revealed;

rkjnt@Romans:2:6 @ Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

rkjnt@Romans:2:7 @ To those who by patience in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

rkjnt@Romans:2:8 @ But to those who are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath.

rkjnt@Romans:2:14 @ For when the Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, though not having the law, are a law to themselves.

rkjnt@Romans:2:19 @ And are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light for those who are in darkness,

rkjnt@Romans:2:20 @ An instructor for the foolish, a teacher of infants, having the embodiment of knowledge and truth in the law:

rkjnt@Romans:3:2 @ Much in every way: First, because the oracles of God were entrusted to them.

rkjnt@Romans:3:12 @ They have all left the way, together they have become unprofitable; there is no one who does good, no, not one.

rkjnt@Romans:3:13 @ Their throats are an open grave; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

rkjnt@Romans:3:15 @ Their feet are swift to shed blood:

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

rkjnt@Romans:3:21 @ But now the righteousness of God apart from the law has been manifested, though it is witnessed to by the law and the prophets;

rkjnt@Romans:3:25 @ Whom God has set forth to be an atoning sacrifice through faith in his blood. He did this to declare his righteousness, for in the forbearance of God, he passed over sins of the past;

rkjnt@Romans:3:26 @ To declare at this present time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

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

rkjnt@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something of which to boast; but not before God.

rkjnt@Romans:4:3 @ For what does the scripture say? Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.

rkjnt@Romans:4:4 @ Now to the one who works, his reward is not counted as a gift, but as his due.

rkjnt@Romans:4:5 @ But to the one who does not work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness.

rkjnt@Romans:4:6 @ Thus David speaks of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:

rkjnt@Romans:4:9 @ Is this blessedness upon the circumcised only, or upon the uncircumcised as well? for we say that faith was credited to Abraham as righteousness.

rkjnt@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness which he had by faith while uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all those who believe without being circumcised; that righteousness might be credited to them as well:

rkjnt@Romans:4:13 @ For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not given to Abraham, or to his descendants, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

rkjnt@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore it is by faith, that it might be by grace; so that the promise might be certain to all his descendants; not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,

rkjnt@Romans:4:17 @ (As it is written, I have made you a father of many nations,) before him in whom he believed, even God, who gives life to the dead, and calls into being those things which are not.

rkjnt@Romans:4:18 @ Against all hope he believed, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall your descendants be.

rkjnt@Romans:4:20 @ He did not waver through unbelief in the promise of God; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

rkjnt@Romans:4:21 @ And was fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

rkjnt@Romans:4:22 @ And therefore it was credited to him as righteousness.

rkjnt@Romans:4:23 @ Now it was not for him alone that these words were written, It was credited to him;

rkjnt@Romans:4:24 @ But also for us. It shall be credited to those of us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.

rkjnt@Romans:4:25 @ He was delivered to death for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

rkjnt@Romans:5:2 @ By whom we also have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

rkjnt@Romans:5:5 @ And hope does not disappoint; because the love of God has been poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

rkjnt@Romans:5:7 @ For one will hardly die for a righteous man: though perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.

rkjnt@Romans:5:8 @ But God shows his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

rkjnt@Romans:5:10 @ For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, how much more, having being reconciled, shall we shall be saved by his life.

rkjnt@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore, since through one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; so death spread to all men, for all have sinned:

rkjnt@Romans:5:13 @ For though sin was in the world before the law: sin is not taken into account when there is no law.

rkjnt@Romans:5:14 @ Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the same way as Adam, who is the pattern of him who was to come.

rkjnt@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the offence. For if through the offence of the one many died, how much more did the grace of God, and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to many.

rkjnt@Romans:5:21 @ So that as sin has reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

rkjnt@Romans:6:2 @ By no means. How shall we, who are dead to sin, live in it any longer?

rkjnt@Romans:6:3 @ Do you not know, that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

rkjnt@Romans:6:4 @ Therefore, we were buried with him by baptism into death: so that as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also might walk in newness of life.

rkjnt@Romans:6:10 @ For in his death, he died to sin once for all: but in his life, he lives to God.

rkjnt@Romans:6:11 @ In the same way, consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

rkjnt@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore, do not let sin reign in your mortal bodies, to make you obey its lusts.

rkjnt@Romans:6:13 @ Do not yield your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness: but yield yourselves to God, as those who are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

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

rkjnt@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that you who were once the slaves of sin, have obeyed from the heart that standard of teaching which was entrusted to you.

rkjnt@Romans:6:19 @ I speak after the manner of men, because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as you have yielded your members as slaves to uncleanness and to ever increasing iniquity; so now yield your members as slaves to righteousness, leading to holiness.

rkjnt@Romans:6:22 @ But now, having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you gain the benefit that leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.

rkjnt@Romans:7:1 @ Do you not know, brethren, (for I speak to those who know the law,) that the law has jurisdiction over a person only as long as he lives?

rkjnt@Romans:7:2 @ For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives; but if the husband dies, she is released from the law concerning her husband.

rkjnt@Romans:7:4 @ Likewise, my brethren, you have died to the law through the body of Christ; so that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead that we might bring forth fruit for God.

rkjnt@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sin, which were aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bring forth fruit for death.

rkjnt@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been released from the law, dead to that which held us bound; so that we serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

rkjnt@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetousness. For without the law sin is dead.

rkjnt@Romans:7:10 @ And the commandment, which was intended to bring life, I found to bring death.

rkjnt@Romans:7:13 @ Then did that which is good bring death to me? By no means. But sin, that it might appear to be sin, worked death in me by that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.

rkjnt@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold into bondage to sin.

rkjnt@Romans:7:15 @ I do not understand that which I do: for I do not do what I want to do; but what I hate is the very thing I do.

rkjnt@Romans:7:16 @ But if I do that which I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good.

rkjnt@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that in myself (that is, in my flesh,) no good thing dwells: for to desire what is right is present within me; but to perform what is right, this I cannot do.

rkjnt@Romans:7:21 @ So I find this law at work, that when I want to do good, evil is present with me.

rkjnt@Romans:7:23 @ But I see another law in the members of my body, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

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

rkjnt@Romans:8:5 @ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh; but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

rkjnt@Romans:8:7 @ Because the mind set on the flesh is hostile to God: for it is not subject to the law of God, indeed it cannot be.

rkjnt@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. Now if any man does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to him.

rkjnt@Romans:8:11 @ And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead shall also give life to your mortal bodies by his Spirit who dwells in you.

rkjnt@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, but not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

rkjnt@Romans:8:13 @ For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if through the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you shall live.

rkjnt@Romans:8:15 @ For you have not received a spirit of bondage leading to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, by which we cry out, Abba, Father.

rkjnt@Romans:8:18 @ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed to us.

rkjnt@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was made subject to futility, not of its own will, but by the will of him who subjected it, in hope,

rkjnt@Romans:8:21 @ That the creation itself shall also be delivered from its bondage to corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

rkjnt@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness: for we do not know how to pray as we ought: but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.

rkjnt@Romans:8:27 @ And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because he intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

rkjnt@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to his purpose.

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

rkjnt@Romans:8:34 @ Who is there to condemn? It is Christ who died, yes, and more than that, who was raised again, who is at the right hand of God, and who also intercedes for us.

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

rkjnt@Romans:8:39 @ Nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

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

rkjnt@Romans:9:4 @ They are the Israelites; to whom belongs the adoption as sons, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the temple worship, and the promises;

rkjnt@Romans:9:5 @ To them belong the fathers, and from them, according to the flesh, came Christ, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen.

rkjnt@Romans:9:11 @ (Though they were not yet born, and had done nothing good or evil, in order that the purpose of God according to his choice might stand, not because of works, but because of him who calls;)

rkjnt@Romans:9:12 @ It was said to her, The elder shall serve the younger.

rkjnt@Romans:9:15 @ For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

rkjnt@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture says to Pharaoh, For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.

rkjnt@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me, Why then does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?

rkjnt@Romans:9:20 @ But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Shall the thing formed say to the one who formed it, Why have you made me this way?

rkjnt@Romans:9:21 @ Does not the potter have the right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for noble use, and another for common use?

rkjnt@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, desiring to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with great patience the vessels of wrath made for destruction:

rkjnt@Romans:9:23 @ That he might make known the riches of his glory to the vessels of mercy, which he had prepared beforehand for glory,

rkjnt@Romans:9:26 @ And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people; there they shall be called the sons of the living God.

rkjnt@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone;

rkjnt@Romans:9:33 @ As it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone, a rock that will make them fall: but whoever believes in him shall never be put to shame.

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

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

rkjnt@Romans:10:3 @ For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own, they have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God.

rkjnt@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness which is by faith speaks in this way, Do not say in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)

rkjnt@Romans:10:7 @ Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)

rkjnt@Romans:10:11 @ For the scripture says, Whoever believes in him shall not be put to shame.

rkjnt@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord is Lord over all, bestowing his riches on all who call upon him.

rkjnt@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, Have they not heard? Yes truly, for: Their voice went into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

rkjnt@Romans:10:19 @ But I say, Did Israel not know? First Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, by a foolish nation I will anger you.

rkjnt@Romans:10:20 @ And Isaiah is very bold, saying, I was found by those who did not seek me; I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.

rkjnt@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched forth my hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.

rkjnt@Romans:11:2 @ God has not cast away his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Elijah? how he appealed to God against Israel, saying,

rkjnt@Romans:11:4 @ But what is the answer God gives to him? I have kept for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

rkjnt@Romans:11:8 @ As it is written, God has given them the spirit of stupor, eyes that should not see, and ears that should not hear; down to this day.

rkjnt@Romans:11:9 @ And David says, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and a retribution to them:

rkjnt@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, Have they stumbled to fall beyond recovery? By no means: but rather through their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.

rkjnt@Romans:11:13 @ For I speak to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I make much of my ministry:

rkjnt@Romans:11:14 @ That I might provoke to envy my own people, and might save some of them.

rkjnt@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore behold the kindness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, kindness, if you continue in his kindness: otherwise you shall also be cut off.

rkjnt@Romans:11:23 @ And they also, if they do not persist in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.

rkjnt@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut off from an olive tree which is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted onto a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

rkjnt@Romans:11:25 @ Brethren, I would not have you be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own conceits; that a hardening in part has happened to Israel, until the full number of Gentiles has come in.

rkjnt@Romans:11:32 @ For God has consigned all men to disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.

rkjnt@Romans:11:35 @ Or who has first given to him, that he might be repaid?

rkjnt@Romans:11:36 @ For from him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.

rkjnt@Romans:12:1 @ Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service of worship.

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

rkjnt@Romans:12:3 @ For through the grace given to me, I say to every man among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according to the measure of faith God has given him.

rkjnt@Romans:12:6 @ Having gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, according to the proportion of our faith;

rkjnt@Romans:12:9 @ Let love be genuine. Abhor that which is evil; cling to that which is good.

rkjnt@Romans:12:10 @ Be devoted to one another with brotherly love; honour one another more than yourselves;

rkjnt@Romans:12:13 @ Contributing to the saints who are in need; practicing hospitality.

rkjnt@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore, if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink: for in so doing you shall heap coals of fire upon his head.

rkjnt@Romans:13:1 @ Let every man be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority but from God: and those authorities that exist have been ordained by God.

rkjnt@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror for those who do good works, but to those who do evil. Do you want to have no fear of the one in authority? do that which is good, and you shall have his praise:

rkjnt@Romans:13:4 @ For he is a minister of God for your good. But if you do that which is evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain: for he is a minister of God to execute wrath upon the one who does evil.

rkjnt@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore you must be subject, not only to avoid wrath, but also for conscience sake.

rkjnt@Romans:13:6 @ For this reason you also pay taxes: for they are God's ministers, attending continually to this very service.

rkjnt@Romans:13:7 @ Therefore, give to all men what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; revenue to whom revenue; respect to whom respect; honour to whom honour.

rkjnt@Romans:13:8 @ Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he who loves others has fulfilled the law.

rkjnt@Romans:13:10 @ Love does no wrong to a neighbour: therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

rkjnt@Romans:13:11 @ And besides that, you know the hour, that it is now high time to awaken from sleep: for now our salvation is nearer than when we believed.

rkjnt@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its lusts.

rkjnt@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you to judge another man's servant? to his own master he stands or falls. And he shall be upheld: for the Lord is able to make him stand.

rkjnt@Romans:14:6 @ He who observes the day, observes it for the Lord; He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, abstains for the Lord, and gives God thanks.

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

rkjnt@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written, As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

rkjnt@Romans:14:12 @ So then, every one of us shall give an account of himself to God.

rkjnt@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore, let us not judge one another any more: but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or an obstacle in a brother's way.

rkjnt@Romans:14:14 @ I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

rkjnt@Romans:14:18 @ For he who serves Christ in this way is acceptable to God, and approved by men.

rkjnt@Romans:14:20 @ Do not destroy the work of God for food. All things indeed are pure; but it is wrong for a man to cause another to fall by what he eats.

rkjnt@Romans:14:21 @ It is good not to eat meat, or to drink wine, or do anything that causes your brother to stumble.

rkjnt@Romans:15:1 @ We then who are strong ought to bear with the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

rkjnt@Romans:15:2 @ Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good, to edify him.

rkjnt@Romans:15:5 @ Now may the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in harmony with one another, according to Christ Jesus:

rkjnt@Romans:15:7 @ Therefore welcome one another, as Christ welcomed us to the glory of God.

rkjnt@Romans:15:8 @ Now I say that Christ became a minister to the circumcised for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers:

rkjnt@Romans:15:9 @ And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will praise you among the Gentiles, and sing to your name.

rkjnt@Romans:15:12 @ And again, Isaiah says, The root of Jesse shall come, and he shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope.

rkjnt@Romans:15:14 @ And I myself am also convinced about you, my brethren, that you are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and able also to admonish one another.

rkjnt@Romans:15:15 @ Nevertheless, brethren, I have written more boldly to you on some points, as a reminder, because of the grace given to me by God,

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

rkjnt@Romans:15:17 @ Therefore, through Jesus Christ I have reason to glory in my work for God.

rkjnt@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any work except what Christ has done through me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,

rkjnt@Romans:15:19 @ Through the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

rkjnt@Romans:15:20 @ So I aspired to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

rkjnt@Romans:15:21 @ But as it is written, Those who were not told of him shall see: and those who have not heard shall understand.

rkjnt@Romans:15:22 @ This is why I have been often hindered from coming to you.

rkjnt@Romans:15:23 @ But now, having no more opportunity for work in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you;

rkjnt@Romans:15:24 @ I hope to see you on my way to Spain, and to be helped on my journey there by you, after I have enjoyed your company for a while.

rkjnt@Romans:15:25 @ But now I go to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

rkjnt@Romans:15:26 @ For it has pleased those of Macedonia and Achaia to make a contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.

rkjnt@Romans:15:27 @ It has truly pleased them to do this; and indeed they are indebted to them. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is to minister to them in material things.

rkjnt@Romans:15:28 @ Therefore, when I have completed this, and have made certain they have received this fruit, I will come visit you on my way to Spain.

rkjnt@Romans:15:29 @ And I am sure that, when I come to you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.

rkjnt@Romans:15:30 @ Now I urge you, brethren, for the sake of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;

rkjnt@Romans:15:32 @ That I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may together with you be refreshed.

rkjnt@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church which is at Cenchreae:

rkjnt@Romans:16:2 @ That you receive her in the Lord, in a manner befitting the saints, and that you assist her in whatever matter she may have need of you: for she has been a help to many, and to myself as well.

rkjnt@Romans:16:4 @ Who have for my life risked their own necks: to whom not only do I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.

rkjnt@Romans:16:6 @ Greet Mary, who bestowed much labour upon you.

rkjnt@Romans:16:10 @ Greet Apelles, tested and approved in Christ. Greet those who are of Aristobulus' household.

rkjnt@Romans:16:17 @ Now I urge you, brethren, take note of those who cause divisions and difficulties, contrary to the doctrine which you have learned; and avoid them.

rkjnt@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience is known to all, and therefore I am glad on your behalf: yet I would have you be wise regarding that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

rkjnt@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius, host to me and the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, and our brother Quartus, greet you.

rkjnt@Romans:16:25 @ Now to him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret for long ages past,

rkjnt@Romans:16:26 @ But now has been made manifest, and through the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, has been made known to all nations to bring about the obedience of faith:

rkjnt@Romans:16:27 @ To the only wise God, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:2 @ To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all those in every place who call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their Lord and ours:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:3 @ Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:8 @ Who shall also confirm you to the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God is faithful, by whom you were called into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I urge you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree, and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me about you, my brethren, by Chloe's people, that there are quarrels among you.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:12 @ What I mean to say is that every one of you says, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with eloquent words of wisdom, lest the cross of Christ should be emptied of its power.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the preaching of the cross is to those who are perishing foolishness; but to those of us who are being saved it is the power of God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by its wisdom did not come to know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of our preaching to save those who believe.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:23 @ But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For consider your calling, brethren: that not many were wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are mighty;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:28 @ And God has chosen base things of the world, and things which are despised, and things which are not, to reduce to nothing things that are:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come with lofty speech or wisdom as I declared to you the testimony of God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I determined not to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:6 @ Yet we do speak wisdom among those who are mature: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are being brought to nothing:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:8 @ Wisdom which none of the rulers of this world understood: for had they understood it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But God has revealed them to us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us by God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:1 @ And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of the flesh, as babes in Christ.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I have fed you with milk, and not with solid food: for until now you were not able to bear it, nor are you yet able.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:5 @ Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom you believed, as the Lord assigned to each his task?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:8 @ Now he who plants and he who waters are equal: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:9 @ For we are labourers together with God: you are God's field, God's building.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds upon it. But let every man take heed how he builds upon it.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:12 @ Now if any man builds upon this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:3:22 @ Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore, judge nothing before the time; before the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the things hidden in darkness, and will disclose the motives of the heart: and then every man shall have his praise from God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:6 @ And these things, brethren, I have applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes; that through us you might learn not to go beyond that which is written, that none of you might become puffed up in favour of one against another.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who makes you superior to another? and what do you have that you did not receive? now if you did receive it, why do you boast, as if you had not received it?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as if we were condemned to death: for we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels and to men.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:11 @ Even to this present hour we both hunger and thirst, and are ill-clothed, and are buffeted, and are homeless;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:13 @ When slandered, we answer kindly; we have been made the filth of the world, the offscouring of all things, even to this day.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you do not have many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore I urge you, be imitators of me.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this reason I have sent to you Timothy, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach everywhere in every church.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:18 @ Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills, and will find out, not the speech of those who are puffed up, but their power.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What do you wish? shall I come to you with a rod, or in love, and in a spirit of gentleness?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are gathered together, with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

rkjnt@1Corinthians:5:5 @ Deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord Jesus.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in a letter not to keep company with the sexually immoral:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:5:10 @ Not at all meaning the immoral of this world, or the covetous, or swindlers, or idolaters; for then you would have to go out of the world.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I write to you not to keep company with any man who is called a brother if he is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an swindler; with such a one do not even eat.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what have I to do with judging those who are outside? are you not to judge those who are within?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:1 @ Does any of you dare, if you have a dispute against another, to go to law before the ungodly, instead of before the saints?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:3 @ Do you not know that we shall judge angels? how much more, things that pertain to this life?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I speak this to your shame. Can it be that there is not a wise man among you who shall be able to judge between his brethren?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But brother goes to law against brother, and that before the unbelievers.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Now, it is utterly a defeat for you that you go to law one with another. Why do you not rather suffer the wrong? why do you not rather allow yourselves to be defrauded?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:8 @ Instead, you yourselves do wrong, and defraud, and you do this to your brethren.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:10 @ Nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? for the two, he says, shall become one flesh.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning the things about which you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:2 @ Nevertheless, to avoid impurity, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband fulfill his marital duty to his wife: and likewise the wife to the husband.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not deprive one another, except by consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and then come together again, that Satan may not tempt you for your lack of self-control.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:8 @ Therefore I say to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them to remain single, as I am.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they cannot contain themselves, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:10 @ And to the married I give this command, not I, but the Lord, Let the wife not depart from her husband:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But if she does depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let the husband not divorce his wife.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I say, not the Lord: If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is willing to live with him, let him not divorce her.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And the woman who has a husband who does not believe, and if he is willing to live with her, let her not leave him.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving one departs, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: for God has called us to peace.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But as the Lord has assigned to every man, as God has called every one, so let him walk. And this is my rule in all the churches.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning virgins I have no commandment from the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be trustworthy.

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

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Are you bound to a wife? do not seek to be released. Are you released from a wife? do not seek a wife.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Nevertheless, those who marry shall have trouble in this life: and I seek to spare you.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:32 @ I would have you be without concern. He who is unmarried is concerned for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:35 @ And this I speak for your own benefit; not to restrain you, but to promote that which is seemly, and that you may attend to the Lord without distraction.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any man thinks that he is behaving improperly toward the virgin he is engaged to, if she is passing the flower of her youth, and if need so requires, let him do what he wishes, he does not sin: let them marry.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:7:39 @ The wife is bound as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is at liberty to marry whom she wishes; only in the Lord.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now regarding things offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:8:2 @ And if any man thinks that he knows something, he does not yet know as he ought to know.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Therefore, concerning the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:8:7 @ Yet, not every man has this knowledge: for some are still accustomed to idols, and eat a thing as if it were really offered to an idol; and because their conscience is weak it is defiled.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not commend us to God: if we eat, we are none the better; if we do not eat, we are none the worse.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any man sees you, who have knowledge, eating in an idol's temple, shall not the conscience of the one who is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you: for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:3 @ My defence to those who examine me is this:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:4 @ Do we not have the right to eat and to drink?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Do we not have the right to take along a believing wife, as do the other apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Or is it only Barnabas and I who do not have the right to refrain from working?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or does he say it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes it is written: that he who plows should plow in hope; and he who threshes should thresh in hope of a share of the crop.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown spiritual things among you, is it too much if we reap material things from you?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things: nor am I writing these things that it should be done for me: for it would be better for me to die, than for any man to make my boast an empty one.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast about: for it is a necessity laid upon me; woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:17 @ If I do this willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a commission has been entrusted to me.

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

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:20 @ To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might win the Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might win those who are under the law;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those who are without the law, as without the law, (though I am not without the law of God, but am under the law of Christ,) that I might win those who are without the law.

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

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:25 @ And every man who competes is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown; but we an imperishable.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I beat my body, and bring it into subjection: lest by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.

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

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:2 @ And were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Nor be idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to them as examples: and they were written for our instruction, upon whom the end of the ages has come.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able to endure; but with the temptation will also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I speak as to sensible men; judge for yourselves what I say.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What do I say then? that an idol is anything, or that food offered in sacrifice to idols is anything?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:20 @ No, but I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I do not want you to have fellowship with devils.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:22 @ Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any of those who do not believe ask you to a meal, and you are disposed to go; eat whatever is set before you, without asking questions for conscience sake.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if any man says to you, This has been offered in sacrifice to idols, do not eat, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for conscience sake:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:31 @ Therefore, whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Do not give offence to the Jews, or to the Greeks, or to the church of God:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:10:33 @ Just as I try to please all men in all things, not seeking my own good, but that of the many, that they may be saved.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:1 @ Be imitators of me, just as I am of Christ.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things, and keep the traditions, just as I delivered them to you.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if the woman will not be covered, let her also be shorn: but if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:10 @ For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman pray to God uncovered?

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

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if any man is inclined to be contentious, we have no other custom, nor do the churches of God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now in the following instructions I do not praise you, for you come together not for the better, but for the worse.

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

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When you come together in one place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What? do you not have houses in which to eat and to drink? or do you despise the church of God, and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I will not.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I have received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same manner he took the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Therefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:34 @ And if any man is hungry, let him eat at home; so you do not come together to be condemned. And the rest I will set in order when I come.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore, I want you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is Lord, except by the Holy Spirit.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each man for the common good.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:8 @ For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:9 @ To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by that one Spirit;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:10 @ To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another various kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But all these things are by one and the same Spirit, who distributes to every man as he wills.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slave or free; and have all been made to drink of one Spirit.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:22 @ No, those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are the most necessary:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our unpresentable parts are treated with special modesty,

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:24 @ Of which our presentable parts have no need: but God has composed the body, giving more abundant honour to that part which lacked it:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appointed in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that workers of miracles, then those with gifts of healing, helpers, administrators, and those who speak in different tongues.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Do all have gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become a noisy gong, or a clanging cymbal.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And if I give all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails: but where there are prophecies, they shall pass away; where there are tongues, they shall cease; where there is knowledge, it shall vanish away.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see in a mirror dimly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in an unknown tongue does not speak to men, but to God: for no man understands him; yet in the spirit he speaks mysteries.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in an unknown tongue edifies himself; but he who prophesies edifies the church.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I would like for you all to speak in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy: for greater is he who prophesies than he who speaks with tongues, unless he interprets, so that the church may be edified.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:6 @ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, how will I benefit you, unless I shall speak to you some revelation, or knowledge, or prophesy, or instruction?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So likewise you, unless you utter by the tongue words that are easy to understand, how shall it be known what is spoken? for you shall speak into the air.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:11 @ But if I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks shall be a foreigner to me.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So with you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek to excel in edifying the church.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore, let him who speaks in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What am I to do? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the mind also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the mind also.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise when you bless with the spirit, how shall he who is ungifted say Amen to your giving of thanks, seeing that he does not understand what you say?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank my God, that I speak with tongues more than all of you:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:19 @ Yet in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written, By men of strange tongues and by the lips of foreigners I will speak to this people; and yet for all that they will not hear me, says the Lord.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Therefore tongues are a sign, not for those who believe, but for those who do not believe: but prophesy is not only for those who do not believe, but also for those who do believe.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore, if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak in tongues, and those who are ungifted, or unbelievers, come in, will they not say that you are mad?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What then, brethren? when you come together, every one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If anyone speaks in an unknown tongue, let there be two, or at the most three, and each in turn; and let one interpret.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:30 @ If anything is revealed to another who sits by, let the first hold his peace.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:32 @ And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let the women keep silent in the churches: for it is not permitted for them to speak; but they should be subordinate, as the law says.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they wish to learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a disgrace for women to speak in the church.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:36 @ What? did the word of God come forth from you? or has it come only to you?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any man thinks he is a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that what I write to you is a commandment of the Lord.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:14:39 @ Therefore, brethren, desire to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Now, brethren, I would remind you of the gospel which I preached to you, which you have received, and in which you stand;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:2 @ By which you are also saved, if you hold fast to what I preached to you, unless you believed in vain.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you as of first importance that which I received, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:4 @ And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:5 @ And that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:6 @ After that, he appeared to more than five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:7 @ After that, he appeared to James; then to all the apostles.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:8 @ And last of all he appeared to me also, as to one untimely born.

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

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than all of them: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:15 @ Yea, and we are found to be false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ, whom he has raised not up, if it is true that the dead do not rise.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then comes the end, when he delivers up the kingdom to God the Father; after he has destroyed all rule and all authority and power.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:28 @ And when all things shall be subjected to him, then shall the Son himself be subject to him who put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If for merely human reasons I fought beasts in Ephesus, what advantage is that to me, if the dead are not raised? let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Awaken to sobriety, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:36 @ You fool, that which you sow does not come to life, unless it dies:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to every kind of seed its own body.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:54 @ When the perishable has put on the imperishable, and the mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:55 @ O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?

rkjnt@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I come, whomever you shall approve I will send with letters, to take your gift to Jerusalem.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I will come to you, after I pass through Macedonia: for I intend to pass through Macedonia;

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not want to see you now just in passing; but I hope to stay some time with you, if the Lord permits.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a wide door for effectual work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore, let no man despise him: but send him forth in peace, that he may come to me: for I am expecting him with the brethren.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:12 @ Regarding our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to go to you with the brethren: but it was not at all his desire to go at this time; but he will come when he has the opportunity.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:15 @ I urge you, brethren, (you know that those of the house of Stephanas were the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to serving the saints,)

rkjnt@1Corinthians:16:16 @ That you submit yourselves to such as these, and to everyone who helps in the work, and labours earnestly.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we would not have you ignorant of our trouble, brethren, which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed down beyond measure, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:11 @ As you help by praying for us. Then thanks will be given by many on our behalf for the favour bestowed upon us by the prayers of many.

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

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we write nothing to you, except what you can read and understand; and I trust you shall understand fully;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:14 @ Just as also you have understood us in part and recognized that you can be proud of us, even as we can be proud of you in the day of the Lord Jesus.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I intended to come to you first, that you might benefit twice;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:16 @ I planned to visit you on my way to Macedonia, and again visit you when I returned from Macedonia, and to be helped by you on my way to Judaea.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:17 @ When I planned this, did I do it lightly? or the things that I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that I should say yes, yes when I may mean no, no?

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:18 @ But as God is true, our word to you was not yes and no.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For as many as are the promises of God, in him they are yes. And so our Amen is through him, to the glory of God.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:1:23 @ I call God as a witness upon my soul, that it was to spare you that I did not come to Corinth.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:1 @ But I determined that I would not make another painful visit to you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I make you sorrowful, who will there be to make me glad, but the same one I made sorrowful?

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote this same thing to you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from those who ought to make me rejoice; for I had confidence in all of you, that my joy would be the joy of all of you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For I wrote to you out of much affliction and anguish of heart, with many tears; not that you should be grieved, but that you might know the abundant love which I have for you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me, but to some degree, not to put it too severely, to all of you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:7 @ So you ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps he may be overwhelmed with excessive sorrow.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For to this end I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in all things.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Now, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, a door was opened for me by the Lord,

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:13 @ Yet I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother: so I took leave of them, and I went from there into Macedonia.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:14 @ Now thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and makes manifest through us the fragrance of the knowledge of him in every place.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are an aroma of Christ to God, among those who are being saved, and among those who are perishing:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:2:16 @ To the one we are the aroma of death to death; and to the other the aroma of life to life. And who is equal to such a calling?

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? or do we need, as some others, letters of recommendation to you, or letters of recommendation from you?

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:3 @ And you show that you are letters of Christ delivered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not on tablets of stone, but on tablets of human hearts.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:5 @ Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:7 @ For if the ministry of death, written and engraved in stone, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance; and that glory fading:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were hardened: for to this day the same veil remains unlifted at the reading of the old covenant; because it is only removed through Christ.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:15 @ But even to this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their hearts.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:16 @ But whenever a man shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all, with unveiled faces beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are changed into that same image, from glory to glory, and this is from the Lord, the Spirit.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced the hidden, shameful things, and do not walk in craftiness, nor handle the word of God deceitfully; but by the manifestation of the truth we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:4:3 @ But if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the transcendent power may be shown to be from God, and not from us.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we who live are always being delivered over to death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus might also be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For all things are for your sakes, that as grace extends to more and more people, it might cause thanksgiving to abound, to the glory of God.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For in this house we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our dwelling which is from heaven:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:5 @ Now he who has made us for this very thing is God, who has also given to us the Spirit as a pledge.

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

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men. But what we are is plain to God; and I also trust it is plain to your consciences.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:12 @ For we do not commend ourselves to you again, but give you occasion to be proud of us, that you may have something to answer those who take pride in appearance, and not in the heart.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:16 @ Therefore, we no longer regard man according to the flesh: though once we regarded Christ according to the flesh, yet now we regard him thus no longer.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:18 @ And all these things are from God, who has reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:19 @ That is, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not counting men's sins against them; and he has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:5:20 @ Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as if God were making his appeal through us: we beg you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

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

rkjnt@2Corinthians:6:1 @ We then, as workers together with him, urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:6:11 @ O Corinthians, we have spoken freely to you, our hearts are open wide.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:6:13 @ As a fair exchange, (I speak as to children,) widen your hearts also.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore, come out from among them, and be separate, says the Lord, and do not touch the unclean thing; and I will welcome you,

rkjnt@2Corinthians:6:18 @ And will be a Father to you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Open your hearts to us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.

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

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For, when we had come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; fighting without, fears within.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:7 @ And not by his coming only, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, when he told us of your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced still more.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:9 @ Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorrowful, but that your sorrow brought you to repentance: for you were made sorrowful in a godly manner, so that you suffered no harm from us.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation and leaves no regret: but the sorrow of the world produces death.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For behold what earnestness this godly sorrow has produced in you, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what readiness to punish wrongdoing! In all things you have shown yourselves to be innocent in this matter.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Therefore, though I wrote to you, I did not do it because of the one who committed the wrong, nor because of the one who suffered the wrong, but that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have boasted at all to him about you, I was not put to shame; but as we spoke all things to you in truth, even so our boasting to Titus has proved true.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his inward affection abounds even more toward you, as he remembers the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling you received him.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:1 @ And now, brethren, we want you to know of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For I bear witness that they gave according to their ability, yea, and beyond their ability, and of their own accord;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:4 @ Begging us most insistently that we would allow them the privilege of taking part in this service to the saints.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And this they did, not as we expected, but they first gave themselves to the Lord, and to us by the will of God.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I do not speak this as a commandment, but to use the zeal of others to test the sincerity of your own love.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And here I give my advice about what is best for you: a year ago you were the first not only to give, but to desire to do so.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:11 @ Therefore, complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness in desiring it, so there may also be a completion of it, according to your means.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there is first a willing mind, it is acceptable, according to what a man has, and not according to that he does not have.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:14 @ But for there to be equality; at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance may also be a supply for your want: that there may be equality.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:15 @ As it is written, He who gathered much did not have too much; and he who gathered little had no lack.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God, who put the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he not only accepted our appeal; but being very earnest, he is going to you of his own accord.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:19 @ And not only that, but who was also chosen by the churches to travel with us in this gracious work, which is administered by us for the glory of the Lord himself, and to show our good will.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:21 @ For we take care to do what is honest, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have often tested and found to be diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, because of the great confidence which he has in you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker among you; and as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches, a glory to Christ.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Therefore show to them, before the churches, the proof of your love, and the reason for our boasting about you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Now regarding this ministry to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:2 @ For I know your eagerness, of which I boast to the Macedonians, saying that you in Achaia were ready a year ago; and your zeal has stirred up most of them.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:4 @ Lest if any from Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) should be put to shame by this confidence.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore, I thought it necessary to urge these brethren, that they would go on ahead to you, and arrange beforehand your generous gift, which you promised, that it might be ready, as a willing gift, and not as one grudgingly given.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to make all grace abound to you; that you, always having enough in all things, may abound in every good work.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written, He has scattered abroad; he has given to the poor: his righteousness endures forever.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:10 @ Now he who provides seed to the sower and bread for food, will supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You will be enriched in everything, so you can be generous, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the performance of this service not only supplies the wants of the saints, but also overflows in many thanksgivings to God.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:13 @ Because of the proof given by this service, they will glorify God because of your obedience to the gospel of Christ, which you profess, and for your liberal contribution to them, and to all;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:14 @ And in their prayers, their hearts will go out to you because of the surpassing grace of God in you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:9:15 @ Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I urge you, that when I am present I may not be bold with the confidence with which I expect to be bold against some, who think that we walk according to the flesh.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:5 @ We cast down arguments, and every lofty thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:6 @ And we have a readiness to punish all disobedience, when your obedience is complete.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Do you look on things according to their outward appearance? If any man trusts that he is Christ's, let him remind himself, that, as he is Christ's, so are we.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For though I should boast somewhat freely of our authority, which the Lord has given us for building you up, and not for your destruction, I shall not be put to shame.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:9 @ I do not wish to seem to be frightening you by my letters.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:12 @ We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves: but in measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, they are not wise.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boast of things without limit, but will keep within the field which God has assigned to us, a field which reaches even to you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we do not stretch beyond our limit, as though we had not reached to you: for we were the first to come as far as to you with the gospel of Christ:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:16 @ So we may preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast of work already done in another man's field.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous of you with a godly jealousy: for I have betrothed you to one husband, that I might present you to Christ as a pure virgin.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:5 @ I consider that I am not in the least inferior to these superlative apostles.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:6 @ But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not in knowledge; we have made this plain to you in all things.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Have I committed an offence by abasing myself that you might be exalted, because I have preached the gospel of God to you without cost?

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches, taking wages from them, to serve you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was present with you, and in want, I burdened no man: for that which I lacked the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will continue to do.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:10 @ As the truth of Christ is in me, no man in the regions of Achaia shall stop me from this boasting.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I do, that I will continue to do, that I may undermine the claim of those who desire opportunity to be regarded as our equals in that of which they boast.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:15 @ Therefore it is no surprise if his servants are also disguised as servants of righteousness; their end shall be according to their works.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, Let no man think me a fool; but if you do, receive me as a fool, that I too may boast a little.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:18 @ Seeing that many boast according to the flesh, I will boast also.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you bear it if a man brings you into bondage, if a man devours you, if a man takes advantage of you, if a man exalts himself, if a man strikes you on the face.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To my shame, I must say, we were too weak to do that. Yet in whatever else anyone dares to boast, (I speak foolishly,) I also dare to boast.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Thrice I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have spent in the deep;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:27 @ In toil and hardship, in many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and nakedness.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:29 @ Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is made to fall, and I do not burn inwardly?

rkjnt@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, guarded the city of Damascus with a garrison in order to apprehend me:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:1 @ Though it is not profitable for me to boast, I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I knew a man in Christ who fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knows;) was caught up to the third heaven.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:4 @ Was caught up into paradise, and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:6 @ If I should desire to boast, I shall not be a fool; for I will speak the truth: but I refrain, lest any man should think of me beyond that which he sees in me, or hears from me.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And lest I should exalt myself beyond measure through the abundance of revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger from Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted beyond measure.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:9 @ And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Therefore, most gladly will I boast in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have made a fool of myself; you have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended by you: for in nothing am I behind these superlative apostles, though I am nothing.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For in what way were you less favoured than other churches, except that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Behold, for the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I do not seek what is yours, but you: for the children ought not to save up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:15 @ And I will very gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I to be loved the less?

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:17 @ Did I take advantage of you by any of those whom I sent to you?

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

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:19 @ All this time have you been thinking that we are defending ourselves to you? we speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your strengthening.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear that when I come, I shall not find you as I wish, and you shall not find me to be as you wish; lest perhaps there may be quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of wrath, rivalries, slander, gossip, conceit, disorder:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This is the third time I am coming to you. By the mouths of two or three witnesses must every matter be established.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For though he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God to serve you.

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

rkjnt@2Corinthians:13:7 @ Now I pray to God that you do no wrong; not that we should appear approved, but that you should do that which is right, even if we appear to be failures.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Aim to be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:2 @ And all the brethren who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:

rkjnt@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,

rkjnt@Galatians:1:4 @ Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father:

rkjnt@Galatians:1:5 @ To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach any other gospel to you than that which we have preached to you, let him be eternally accursed.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:9 @ As we said before, so now I say again, If any man preach any other gospel to you than that which you have received, let him be eternally accursed.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:10 @ Do I now seek the favour of men, or of God? or do I seek to please men? if I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:11 @ But I want you to know, brethren, that the gospel which I preached is not from man.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and tried to destroy it:

rkjnt@Galatians:1:16 @ To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood:

rkjnt@Galatians:1:17 @ Nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:18 @ Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.

rkjnt@Galatians:1:20 @ (Now these things which I am writing to you, behold, before God, I do not lie.)

rkjnt@Galatians:1:21 @ Afterwards I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;

rkjnt@Galatians:1:22 @ And was still unknown by face to the churches of Christ in Judaea:

rkjnt@Galatians:1:23 @ But they had only heard, That he who persecuted us in times past now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:1 @ Then, fourteen years later, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up because of a revelation, and communicated to them the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of repute, lest by any means I should be running, or had run, in vain.

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

rkjnt@Galatians:2:4 @ That arose because of false brethren who secretly slipped in to spy out the liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:5 @ We did not yield in subjection to them, not even for a hour; that the truth of the gospel might remain with you.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:6 @ But those who seemed to be important, (what they were makes no difference to me: God shows no partiality:) well, those who seemed to be important added nothing to me:

rkjnt@Galatians:2:7 @ But instead, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, as Peter had been entrusted with the gospel to the circumcised;

rkjnt@Galatians:2:8 @ (For he who worked effectively in Peter in his apostleship to the circumcised, also worked in me for the Gentiles:)

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

rkjnt@Galatians:2:10 @ They only asked that we would remember the poor; the very thing which I also was eager to do.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all, If you, being a Jew, live like the Gentiles, and not like the Jews, why do you compel the Gentiles to live like the Jews?

rkjnt@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, while seeking to be justified by Christ, we ourselves are also shown to be sinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? God forbid.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:18 @ For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I prove myself to be a transgressor.

rkjnt@Galatians:2:19 @ For through the law I am dead to the law, that I might live to God.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:5 @ He who provides to you the Spirit, and works miracles among you, does he do it by the works of the law, or by hearing with faith?

rkjnt@Galatians:3:6 @ Thus Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:8 @ And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles through faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, In you shall all nations be blessed.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:10 @ For all who depend on the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do all things which are written in the book of the law.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:15 @ Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it is only a man's covenant, yet when it is ratified, no man annuls or adds to it.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:16 @ Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He does not say, And to seeds, as to many; but to one, And to your seed, which is Christ.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance is based on the law, then it is no longer based on a promise: but God gave it to Abraham by a promise.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:19 @ Then what purpose does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, until the seed should come to whom the promise was made. It was ordained by angels through the hand of a mediator.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:20 @ Now a mediator is not for one party only, but God is one.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:22 @ But the scripture has declared all to be prisoners of sin, so that the promise, given on the basis of faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:24 @ Therefore, the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

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

rkjnt@Galatians:3:27 @ For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

rkjnt@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:3 @ So we, when we were children, were in bondage to the elementary principles of the world:

rkjnt@Galatians:4:5 @ To redeem those who were under the law, that we might be adopted as sons.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:8 @ But previously, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:9 @ But now that you have come to know God, or rather, to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to those weak and beggarly principles, to which you again desire to be in bondage?

rkjnt@Galatians:4:11 @ I am afraid for you, lest I have bestowed labour upon you in vain.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:13 @ You know it was because of infirmity of the flesh that I first preached the gospel to you.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:15 @ Where then is the blessed joy you had? for I bear you witness, that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:18 @ But it is always good to be zealously sought after in a good way, and not only when I am present with you.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:20 @ I desire to be present with you now, and to change my tone; for I am perplexed about you.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law?

rkjnt@Galatians:4:23 @ He who was born by the slave woman was born according to the flesh; but the son born by the free woman was through the promise.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:24 @ These things are an allegory: for these women are the two covenants; the one from mount Sinai, who bears children into bondage; this is Hagar.

rkjnt@Galatians:4:25 @ For this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, which is in bondage with her children.

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

rkjnt@Galatians:5:1 @ It is for liberty that Christ has made us free. Therefore, stand fast and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.

rkjnt@Galatians:5:2 @ Behold, I, Paul say to you, that if you are circumcised, Christ shall be of no value to you.

rkjnt@Galatians:5:3 @ For I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is obliged to obey the whole law.

rkjnt@Galatians:5:13 @ For, brethren, you have been called to liberty; only do not use your liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but in love serve one another.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual, restore him in the spirit of gentleness; considering yourselves, lest you also be tempted.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:3 @ For if a man thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:4 @ But let every man test his own work, and then he can take pride in himself, and not in comparison to another.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:8 @ For he who sows to his flesh shall from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit shall from the Spirit reap eternal life.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:10 @ Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:11 @ See what large letters I make as I write to you with my own hand.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:12 @ Those who desire to make a good showing in the flesh would compel you to be circumcised; but only to avoid suffering persecution for the cross of Christ.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:13 @ For not even those who are circumcised keep the law; but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:14 @ But God forbid that I should glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

rkjnt@Galatians:6:16 @ And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:2 @ Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:5 @ He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to his good pleasure and will,

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:6 @ To the praise of his glorious grace, which he freely bestowed upon us in the beloved.

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:7 @ In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:9 @ Having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he set forth in him:

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:10 @ That in the fulness of time he might gather all things together under Christ, both things which are in heaven, and things which are on earth. In him

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:11 @ We have also obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his own will:

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:14 @ Who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession, to the praise of his glory.

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:16 @ Do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

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

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:19 @ And what is the incomparable greatness of his power toward us who believe. It is the working of his mighty power,

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:21 @ Far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.

rkjnt@Ephesians:1:22 @ And he has put all things under his feet, and has appointed him to be the head over all things for the church,

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:2 @ In which you walked in times past, according to the ways of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience.

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:5 @ Even when we were dead in transgressions, has made us alive together with Christ, (by grace you are saved;)

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:6 @ And has raised us up with him, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:7 @ That in the ages to come he might show the incomparable riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God has prepared beforehand for us to do.

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:12 @ That at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:15 @ Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, the law of commandments and ordinances; to create in himself one new man in place of two, thus making peace;

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:16 @ And that he might reconcile both to God, in one body, through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:17 @ And he came and preached peace to you who were far off, and to those who were near.

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:18 @ For through him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:20 @ Built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the cornerstone;

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:21 @ In whom the whole building is joined together and grows to become a holy temple in the Lord:

rkjnt@Ephesians:2:22 @ In whom you also are built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:2 @ If indeed you have heard of the stewardship of the grace of God which was given to me for you:

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:3 @ That by revelation he made known to me the mystery; as I wrote before briefly.

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:4 @ When you read this, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ,

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:5 @ Which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:6 @ That is, that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and sharers together of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel:

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:7 @ Of which I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the working of his power.

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, was this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:10 @ That now, to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places, the manifold wisdom of God might be known through the church,

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:11 @ According to the eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord:

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:14 @ For this reason I bow my knees to the Father,

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:16 @ That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:18 @ May be able to comprehend, with all the saints, its breadth, and length, and height, and depth;

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:19 @ And to know the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fulness of God.

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:20 @ Now to him who is able to do immeasurably beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us,

rkjnt@Ephesians:3:21 @ To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:1 @ Therefore I, a prisoner of the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called,

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:3 @ Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body, and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope in your calling;

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:7 @ But to every one of us grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore it says, When he ascended on high, he led a host of captives, and gave gifts to men.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:9 @ (In saying that he ascended, what does that mean but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth?

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:11 @ And he gave some as apostles; and some as prophets; and some as evangelists; and some as pastors and teachers;

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:13 @ Until we all attain the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:14 @ That we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful scheming.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:15 @ But speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all things into him, who is the head, that is, Christ:

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:16 @ From whom the whole body, fitted and joined together by that which every joint supplies, according to the proper working of every part, causes the body to grow, for the building up of itself in love.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:19 @ Who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to licentiousness, greedy to practice all kinds of uncleanness.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:22 @ Then put off the old man, which belongs to your former life, which is corrupt through deceitful lusts;

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:27 @ Give no opportunity to the devil.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let him who stole, steal no more: but rather let him labour, doing with his hands that which is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no corrupt words proceed out of your mouth, but only that which is good for edifying, that it may impart grace to the hearers.

rkjnt@Ephesians:4:32 @ And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ has forgiven you.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:1 @ Therefore be imitators of God, as dear children;

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:2 @ And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us, and has given himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice, a sweet smelling aroma to God.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:3 @ But sexual immorality, and all impurity, or covetousness, must not even be named among you, as is befitting saints;

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:5 @ For this you know: that no sexually immoral or impure person, or covetous man, (for such a man is an idolater,) has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:10 @ And try to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done by the disobedient in secret.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:19 @ Speaking to one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:20 @ Always giving thanks for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:21 @ Submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:22 @ Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:24 @ Therefore, as the church is subject to Christ, so let wives be to their own husbands in everything.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:27 @ That he might present her to himself a glorious church, without spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that she should be holy and without blemish.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:28 @ So husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

rkjnt@Ephesians:5:31 @ For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother, and be joined to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:4 @ And you fathers, do not provoke your children to anger: but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ;

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:7 @ Doing service with a good will, as to the Lord, and not to men:

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:9 @ And, you masters, do the same to them, and give up threatening: knowing that both your Master and theirs is in heaven; and there is no partiality with him.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:11 @ Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore, take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand on the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:16 @ In addition to all these, take up the shield of faith, with which you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:18 @ Praying always in the Spirit with all manner of prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert in it with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints;

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:19 @ And for me, that words may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:20 @ For which I am an ambassador in chains: that in proclaiming it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:21 @ Now, that you may also know my affairs, and how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make all these things known to you.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:22 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:23 @ Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@Ephesians:6:24 @ Grace be to all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons:

rkjnt@Philippians:1:2 @ Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:6 @ Being confident of this very thing, that he who has begun a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:7 @ It is right for me to think this way of you all, because I have you in my heart; since both in my imprisonment, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partakers with me of grace.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:11 @ Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are from Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:12 @ But I would have you understand, brethren, that the things which happened to me have really served to advance the gospel;

rkjnt@Philippians:1:13 @ So that my imprisonment in Christ has become known throughout the entire praetorian guard, and to all the others;

rkjnt@Philippians:1:14 @ And many of the brethren, growing confident in the Lord because of my imprisonment, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:17 @ The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my imprisonment

rkjnt@Philippians:1:20 @ According to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing shall I be ashamed, but that with all boldness, now as always, Christ shall be exalted in my body, whether by life, or by death.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:21 @ For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:23 @ For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

rkjnt@Philippians:1:24 @ Nevertheless, to remain in the flesh is more necessary for you.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:26 @ That in me your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ, through my coming to you again.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:27 @ Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or am absent, I may hear of you, that you are standing fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

rkjnt@Philippians:1:28 @ And in no way terrified by your adversaries: which is to them a sign of their destruction, but to you of your salvation, and that from God.

rkjnt@Philippians:1:29 @ For to you it is granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for his sake;

rkjnt@Philippians:1:30 @ Having the same conflict which you saw to be mine, and now hear to be mine still.

rkjnt@Philippians:2:4 @ Let each of you not only look to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.

rkjnt@Philippians:2:6 @ Who, though being in the form of God, did not regard equality with God something to be grasped:

rkjnt@Philippians:2:7 @ But made himself of no reputation, and took upon himself the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

rkjnt@Philippians:2:8 @ And being found in form as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

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

rkjnt@Philippians:2:13 @ For it is God who works in you both to will and to do his good pleasure.

rkjnt@Philippians:2:19 @ But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you shortly, that I may also be of good cheer, when I receive news from you.

rkjnt@Philippians:2:23 @ Therefore, I hope to send him presently, as soon as I shall see how it will go with me.

rkjnt@Philippians:2:25 @ Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my needs.

rkjnt@Philippians:2:27 @ Indeed he was sick, and near to death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but also on me, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

rkjnt@Philippians:2:30 @ Because for the work of Christ he was near to death, not regarding his life, to complete the service you could not give.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. For me to write the same things to you is no trouble, and is a safeguard for you.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:2 @ Beware of the dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the mutilators of the flesh.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:4 @ Though I myself might have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinks that he has reason to trust in the flesh, I have more:

rkjnt@Philippians:3:6 @ Concerning zeal, a persecutor of the church; regarding the righteousness which is of the law, blameless.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:7 @ But whatever things were gain to me, those I have counted as loss for Christ.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:8 @ Furthermore, I count all things as loss compared to the excellency of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may win Christ,

rkjnt@Philippians:3:11 @ If only I might attain to the resurrection of the dead.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:13 @ Brethren, I do not consider myself to have laid hold of it yet: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth to those things which are ahead,

rkjnt@Philippians:3:14 @ I press on toward the goal for the prize, to which God has called me upward in Christ Jesus.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:15 @ Therefore, let us, as many as are mature, be of this mind: and if in anything you are of a different mind, God shall also reveal this to you.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:16 @ Only let us hold true to that which we have already attained.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:17 @ Brethren, join together in following me, and note those who walk according to our example.

rkjnt@Philippians:3:18 @ For many, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even with weeping, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ:

rkjnt@Philippians:3:21 @ Who shall change our lowly body, that it may be fashioned like his glorious body, by the power which enables him even to subject all things to himself.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:2 @ I urge Euodia, and urge Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:3 @ And I ask you also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they have laboured with me in the gospel, together with Clement, and the rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are in the book of life.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:5 @ Let your forbearing spirit be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:6 @ Be anxious about nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

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

rkjnt@Philippians:4:12 @ I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound: in all circumstances I have learned how to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:14 @ Nevertheless, you have done well to share in my affliction.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:16 @ For even in Thessalonica you more than once sent help to provide for my needs.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:17 @ Not because I desire a gift: but I desire the fruit that increases to your credit.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:18 @ But I have received all, and abound: I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and well-pleasing to God.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:19 @ And my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

rkjnt@Philippians:4:20 @ Now to our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:2 @ To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colossae: Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:3 @ We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

rkjnt@Colossians:1:6 @ Which has come to you. In all the world it brings forth fruit and grows, as it does also in you, since the day you heard of it, and understood the grace of God in truth:

rkjnt@Colossians:1:8 @ Who has also declared to us your love in the Spirit.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:9 @ For this reason, since the day we heard it, we do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

rkjnt@Colossians:1:10 @ That you might walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please him in all things, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

rkjnt@Colossians:1:11 @ Strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, with all endurance and patience with joyfulness;

rkjnt@Colossians:1:12 @ Giving thanks to the Father, who has made us qualified to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:13 @ He has delivered us from the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

rkjnt@Colossians:1:17 @ And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:20 @ And through him to reconcile all things to himself, whether things on earth, or things in heaven; having made peace through the blood of his cross.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:22 @ He has now reconciled in his body of flesh through death, to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable in his sight:

rkjnt@Colossians:1:23 @ If you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you have heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven; and of which I, Paul, was made a minister.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:25 @ Of which I was made a minister, according to the commission of God, which was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known;

rkjnt@Colossians:1:26 @ That is, the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but has now been made manifest to his saints;

rkjnt@Colossians:1:27 @ To whom God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the riches of the glory of this mystery; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

rkjnt@Colossians:1:29 @ For this I labour, striving according to his power, which works mightily within me.

rkjnt@Colossians:2:1 @ For I want you to know what a great struggle I have for you, and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

rkjnt@Colossians:2:2 @ That their hearts might be comforted as they are knit together in love, and that they might gain all the riches of the full assurance that comes from understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, of Christ;

rkjnt@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, being dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, he has made alive together with him, having forgiven us all transgressions;

rkjnt@Colossians:2:14 @ Cancelling the bond of debt, with its legal decrees against us, which was contrary to us, and taking it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

rkjnt@Colossians:2:17 @ Which are a shadow of things to come; but the reality belongs to Christ.

rkjnt@Colossians:2:19 @ And not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, supported and knit together by its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.

rkjnt@Colossians:2:20 @ Therefore, if you are dead with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as though still living in the world, do you submit to such ordinances as,

rkjnt@Colossians:2:21 @ Do not touch; do not taste; do not handle?

rkjnt@Colossians:2:22 @ These all refer to things which perish with use; and are based on the commandments and doctrines of men.

rkjnt@Colossians:2:23 @ These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom with their self-imposed worship, and self-abasement, and severity to the body; but are of no value in restraining the indulgence of the flesh.

rkjnt@Colossians:3:5 @ Therefore, put to death what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

rkjnt@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his deeds;

rkjnt@Colossians:3:15 @ And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to this; and be thankful.

rkjnt@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

rkjnt@Colossians:3:17 @ And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

rkjnt@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

rkjnt@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh toward them.

rkjnt@Colossians:3:20 @ Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to the Lord.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:1 @ Masters, give to your slaves that which is just and fair; knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:5 @ Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, making the most of the time.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:6 @ Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:7 @ All my affairs Tychicus shall declare to you; he is a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:8 @ I have sent him to you for that very purpose, that you might know of our circumstances, and that he might encourage your hearts.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:9 @ With him is Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known to you all things which have taken place here.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:10 @ Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, greets you, as does Mark, the cousin of Barnabas, (regarding him you received instructions: that if he comes to you, welcome him;)

rkjnt@Colossians:4:11 @ And Jesus, who is called Justus. These are my only fellow workers for the kingdom of God who are of the circumcision, and they have been a comfort to me.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:16 @ And when this letter is read among you, have it also read to the church of the Laodiceans; and you, likewise, read the letter from Laodicea.

rkjnt@Colossians:4:17 @ And say to Archippus, Take heed that you fulfill the ministry which you have received in the Lord.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you, and peace.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ For our gospel came to you not in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and with full conviction. You know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ So that you became an example to all who believe in Macedonia and Achaia.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves testify about what manner of reception we had from you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God;

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, that is, Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brethren, that our visit to you was not in vain:

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ But even after we had already suffered, and were shamefully treated, as you know, in Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God despite much opposition.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But just as we were approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So having a yearning affection for you, we were willing to impart to you, not only the gospel of God, but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For you remember, brethren, our toil and hardship: we laboured night and day, because we did not want to burden any of you as we preached to you the gospel of God.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and so is God, how holy and just and blameless was our behaviour toward you who believe:

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ That you would walk in a manner worthy of God, who has called you into his kingdom and glory.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ By hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved, thus always filling up their sins to the limit: but wrath has come upon them at last.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, having been torn from you for a short time, in person, not in heart, endeavoured all the more eagerly and with great desire to see you face to face.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ Therefore, we wanted to come to you, and I, Paul, more than once; but Satan hindered us.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore, when we could no longer endure it, we thought it good to be left at Athens alone;

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ And sent Timothy, our brother, and fellow-worker for God in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you in your faith:

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For truly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we should suffer tribulation; just as it came to pass, as you know.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could no longer endure it, I sent to learn of your faith, lest by some means the tempter had tempted you, and our labour might have been in vain.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come from you to us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and love, and reported that you always remember us kindly, greatly desiring to see us, as we also desire to see you:

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanks can we render to God for you, for all the joy which we have before our God because of you;

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ And may the Lord make you to increase and abound in love toward one another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ Furthermore, we urge you, brethren, and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you have learned from us how you ought to walk and to please God, as indeed you are doing, so you would do more and more.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ That every one of you should know how to possess his own vessel in holiness and honour;

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ That no man might transgress and defraud his brother in any matter: because the Lord is the avenger in all these things, as we also have told you and warned you.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ For God has not called us to impurity, but to holiness.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But regarding brotherly love you do not need any one to write to you: for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ And that you aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ That you may behave properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ Now I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are asleep, that you may not sorrow, as others who have no hope.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord shall not precede those who are asleep.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But of the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I write to you.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ And we urge you, brethren, to respect those who labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are idle or unruly, encourage the timid, support the weak, be patient toward all.

rkjnt@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I charge you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the brethren.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We ought always to thank God for you, brethren, as is fitting, because your faith grows abundantly, and the love of every one of you for each other grows greater;

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ It is a righteous thing for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you;

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ And to give rest to you who are afflicted, along with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ When he shall come to be glorified in his saints on that day, and to be marveled at among all those who believe, including you, because our testimony among you was believed.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now, regarding the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brethren,

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ That you not be quickly shaken in mind, or alarmed, either by spirit, or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, saying that the day of Christ is at hand.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he sits as God in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember, that when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ That all those might be condemned who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in unrighteousness.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God has from the beginning chosen you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth:

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ To this he called you through our gospel, to obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold to the traditions which you have been taught by us, whether by word, or by letter.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we have confidence in the Lord regarding you, that you are doing and will continue to do the things which we command.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the steadfastness of Christ.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from every brother who is idle and does not walk according to the tradition which you received from us.

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us: for we were not idle among you;

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ Nor did we eat any man's bread without paying; but with labour and toil we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you:

rkjnt@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ Not because we do not have the right, but to make ourselves an example for you to follow.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I urged you when I went to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus, that you might warn certain men not to teach any other doctrine,

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:4 @ Nor to give heed to myths and endless genealogies, which promote useless speculation, rather than godly training, which is by faith.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:6 @ From which some have swerved, turning aside to vain discussion;

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:7 @ Desiring to be teachers of the law; but understanding neither what they say, nor the matters about which they make such confident assertions.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:10 @ For adulterers, for those who defile themselves with men, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and for whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine;

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:11 @ According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:12 @ And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, for he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:13 @ Though I was formerly a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and a violent man: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:15 @ This is a trustworthy saying, and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am the foremost.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:17 @ Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:18 @ This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies once made about you, that by them you might fight the good fight;

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:19 @ Holding on to faith and a good conscience; which some have rejected and so shipwrecked their faith:

rkjnt@1Timothy:1:20 @ Among whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

rkjnt@1Timothy:2:4 @ Who desires all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

rkjnt@1Timothy:2:5 @ For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

rkjnt@1Timothy:2:8 @ Therefore, I want men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or dissension.

rkjnt@1Timothy:2:12 @ I do not allow a woman to teach, or to have authority over a man; she must keep silent.

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:2 @ An overseer must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, respectable, given to hospitality, able to teach;

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:3 @ Not given to wine, not combative, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money;

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:5 @ (For if a man does not know how to manage his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:6 @ Not a recent convert, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:7 @ Moreover, he must have a good reputation among those who are outside; lest he fall into disgrace and the snare of the devil.

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:8 @ Deacons, likewise, must be serious, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for gain;

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:14 @ These things I write to you, hoping to come to you shortly:

rkjnt@1Timothy:3:15 @ But if I tarry long, I write so you will know how you ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly says that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:3 @ Forbidding marriage, and commanding abstinence from foods which God has created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:4 @ For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be refused, if it is received with thanksgiving:

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:6 @ If you point out all these things to the brethren, you shall be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished by the words of faith and of good doctrine, which you have been following.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:7 @ But have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives' tales, but rather train yourself in godliness;

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:8 @ For bodily exercise is of some value: but godliness is of value in all things, having promise in this life, and in that which is to come.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to the believers, in word, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:13 @ Until I come, give attention to the public reading of scripture, to exhortation, to doctrine.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophetic message when the body of elders laid hands upon you.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:15 @ Diligently practice these things; give yourself wholly to them; so your progress may appear to all.

rkjnt@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take heed to yourself, and to your teaching; continue in them: for in doing this you shall save both yourself, and those who hear you.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:4 @ But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show piety at home, and to repay their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:10 @ Having a reputation for good works; if she has brought up her children, if she has shown hospitality to strangers, if she has washed the saints' feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, if she has devoted herself to every good work.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:11 @ But refuse to enroll the younger widows: for when their sensual desires cause them to disregard their dedication to Christ, they will marry;

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:13 @ Besides, they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:14 @ Therefore, I want the younger women to marry, bear children, guide the house, and give the adversary no occasion to speak reproachfully.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:15 @ For some have already turned aside to follow Satan.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:20 @ Those who continue to sin, rebuke before all, that the others may fear.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink water only, but use a little wine for your stomach's sake and for your frequent ailments.

rkjnt@1Timothy:5:24 @ Some men's sins are evident, going before them to judgment; and for some men they appear later.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:3 @ If any man teaches otherwise, and does not consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the teaching which accords with godliness;

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:5 @ And wrangling among men of corrupt minds, who are destitute of the truth, and suppose that godliness is a means to gain.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:7 @ For we brought nothing into this world, and we can carry nothing out.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:9 @ But those who want to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful desires, which plunge men into ruin and destruction.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:12 @ Fight the good fight of faith; lay hold on eternal life, to which you are called, to which you made the good confession before many witnesses.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:13 @ I charge you in the sight of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession;

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:16 @ Who alone has immortality, dwelling in light which no man can approach; whom no man has seen, nor can see. To him be honour and power and dominion forever. Amen.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:17 @ Command those who are rich in this world not to be arrogant, nor to trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who richly gives us all things to enjoy.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:18 @ They are to do good, that they may be rich in good works, generous and willing to share;

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:19 @ Laying up for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may take hold of that which is life indeed.

rkjnt@1Timothy:6:20 @ O Timothy, guard that which has been entrusted to you. Avoid godless chatter and the contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge:

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:4 @ Remembering your tears, I greatly desire to see you, that I may be filled with joy;

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:6 @ Therefore, I would remind you to stir into flame the gift of God, which is in you by the laying on of my hands.

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:10 @ But has now been made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who has abolished death, and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:12 @ And for this reason I also suffer these things: nevertheless, I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed to him until that day.

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:14 @ That good thing which was committed to you, guard by the Holy Spirit, who dwells within us.

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:16 @ May the Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus; for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chains:

rkjnt@2Timothy:1:18 @ May the Lord grant that he will find mercy from the Lord on that day. You know very well in how many ways he ministered to me at Ephesus.

rkjnt@2Timothy:2:2 @ And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

rkjnt@2Timothy:2:4 @ No soldier on active service entangles himself with the affairs of civilian life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.

rkjnt@Philemon:1:22 @ At the same time prepare me a guest room: for I hope that through your prayers I shall be given to you.

rkjnt@Philemon:1:23 @ Greetings to you from Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus;

rkjnt@Hebrews:1:1 @ God, who spoke in times past to our fathers by the prophets at many times and in various ways,

rkjnt@Hebrews:1:2 @ Has in these last days spoken to us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds.

rkjnt@Hebrews:1:4 @ Having become as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.

rkjnt@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels has he at any time said, You are my Son, this day I have begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

rkjnt@Hebrews:1:6 @ And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, Let all the angels of God worship him.

rkjnt@Hebrews:1:13 @ But to which of the angels did he at any time say, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet?

rkjnt@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to serve those who shall be heirs of salvation?

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:1 @ Therefore, we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should slip away.

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:3 @ How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation? It was at first announced by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard him;

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:4 @ God also bearing witness, both with signs and wonders, and with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will.

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:5 @ For he did not put in subjection to the angels the world to come, of which we speak.

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

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all of one family: for which reason he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:12 @ Saying, I will declare your name to my brethren, in the midst of the congregation I will sing praises to you.

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since then, as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he himself also partook of the same; that through death he might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil;

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:15 @ And deliver those who through fear of death were all their lives subject to bondage.

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore, in all things he had to be made like his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.

rkjnt@Hebrews:2:18 @ For since he himself has suffered in being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:2 @ Who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses was faithful in all his house, as a servant, as a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later;

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:7 @ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you hear his voice,

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:12 @ Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, leading you to turn away from the living God.

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:13 @ But encourage one another daily, while it is called Today; lest any of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold our first confidence steadfast to the end;

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:15 @ While it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.

rkjnt@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear that they should not enter his rest, but to those who disobeyed?

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore, let us fear, lest while a promise of entering into his rest remains, any of you should seem to fall short of it.

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:2 @ For the gospel was preached to us, as well as to them: but the word preached did not benefit them, because it was not combined with faith in those who heard it.

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believed enter into that rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, they shall never enter my rest: although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:6 @ Therefore, since it remains that some must enter in, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter in because of unbelief:

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:7 @ He again fixes a certain day, calling it Today, saying through David after so long a time, as was said before, Today if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:11 @ Therefore, let us labour to enter that rest, lest any man fall by following their example of disobedience.

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is alive, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart.

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:13 @ Nor is there any creature concealed from his sight: but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

rkjnt@Hebrews:4:16 @ Therefore, let us boldly approach the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

rkjnt@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest chosen from among men is ordained to represent men in things pertaining to God, to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.

rkjnt@Hebrews:5:2 @ He can have compassion on the ignorant, and on those who are going astray; for he also is subject to weakness.

rkjnt@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest; but was appointed by him who said to him, You are my Son, today I have begotten you.

rkjnt@Hebrews:5:7 @ In the days of his flesh, he offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his piety.

rkjnt@Hebrews:5:11 @ Of him we have many things to say which are hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.

rkjnt@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need for someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.

rkjnt@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, those who by practice have their senses trained to discern both good and evil.

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore, leaving the elementary principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on to perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:5 @ And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:6 @ If they shall fall away, to be brought back again to repentance; for they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and hold him up to public disgrace.

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:8 @ But that which bears thorns and thistles is worthless, and is near to being cursed; its end is to be burned.

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget the work and love which you have shown for his name's sake in having ministered to the saints, as you continue to do.

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:13 @ For when God made a promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself,

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:16 @ For truly, men swear by one who is greater than themselves: and an oath given for confirmation puts an end to all disputes.

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:17 @ Therefore God, wanting to show more clearly to the heirs of the promise the immutable nature of his purpose, confirmed it by an oath:

rkjnt@Hebrews:6:18 @ That by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us might have a strong encouragement.

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:2 @ And to him Abraham gave a tenth part of everything. He is first, by interpretation of his name, King of righteousness, and after that is also King of Salem, which is, King of peace.

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now consider how great this man was: to him even the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils.

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:5 @ And truly, those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these also come out of the loins of Abraham:

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore, if perfection was from the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there for another priest to arise, in the order of Melchizedek, and not in the order of Aaron?

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:19 @ (For the law made nothing perfect;) but there is the bringing in of a better hope; by which we draw near to God.

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:21 @ For others were indeed made priests without an oath; but he with an oath from the one who said to him, The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, You are a priest forever.

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:25 @ Therefore, he is also able to completely save those who come to God through him, for he ever lives to make intercession for them.

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:26 @ For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, blameless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and exalted above the heavens;

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:27 @ Who has no need, as do those high priests, to offer up daily sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for those of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.

rkjnt@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the law appoints men, who are frail, to be high priests; but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son, who has been made perfect forever.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices: therefore it is necessary that this one also have something to offer.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:4 @ Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest, for there are priests who offer gifts according to the law.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:5 @ They serve at a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary. This is why, when Moses was about to make the tabernacle, he was warned by God, saying, See that you make all things according to the pattern shown to you on the mountain.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now he has obtained a ministry that is as much superior to the old as the covenant of which he is the mediator is superior, for it was established upon better promises.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:9 @ Not like the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and I turned away from them, says the Lord.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:10 @ For 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 write them on their hearts: and I will be their God, and they shall be my people:

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:11 @ And no longer shall every man teach his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins I will remember no more.

rkjnt@Hebrews:8:13 @ When he says, A new covenant, he has made the first one obsolete. Now that which is obsolete and grows old is ready to vanish away.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:3 @ And behind the second veil stood the room of the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:6 @ Now when these preparations had been made, the priests went regularly into the first room of the tabernacle, performing their ministry.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:7 @ But into the second the high priest went alone, once every year, and not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the sins the people committed in ignorance.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:8 @ By this the Holy Spirit signifies that the way into the holiest of all has not yet been disclosed, while the first room of the tabernacle remains standing,

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

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:12 @ Nor by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, he entered once for all into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:14 @ How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, cleanse your consciences from dead works to serve the living God?

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions committed under the first covenant, those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a will, the death of the testator must be established.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a will is in force only upon death: it has no strength at all while the testator lives.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:19 @ For when Moses had spoken every commandment to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:20 @ Saying, This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you to keep.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has not entered a holy place made with hands, a copy of the true one; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor does he need to offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place every year with blood not his own;

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:26 @ For then he would have needed to suffer often since the foundation of the world: but now he has appeared once at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

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

rkjnt@Hebrews:9:28 @ So Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many; shall appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring full salvation to those who eagerly await him.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the law, being only a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never by those sacrifices, which are offered year by year, continually, make perfect those who draw near.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore, when he came into the world, he said, Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you have prepared for me;

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, Lo, I come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me,) to do your will, O God.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:8 @ After he said above, Sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and offerings for sin you did not desire, neither did you have pleasure in them, which are offered according to the law;

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:9 @ Then said he, Lo, I come to do your will, O God. He takes away the first, that he may establish the second.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:13 @ From that time on waiting until his enemies are made his footstool.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:15 @ And the Holy Spirit also is a witness to us: for after he said,

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:16 @ This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them;

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:19 @ Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the most holy place by the blood of Jesus,

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:20 @ By a new and living way which he has opened for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:24 @ And let us consider how to arouse one another to love and to good works:

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:25 @ Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as you see the day approaching.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:30 @ For we know him who has said, Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:31 @ It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:32 @ But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great struggle in the face of afflictions;

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:33 @ Sometimes you were made a public spectacle by insults and afflictions; and sometimes, because you became companions to those who were so treated.

rkjnt@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those who draw back to destruction; but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, and by it he obtained the testimony that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by faith, though he is dead, yet he speaks.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he who comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out to a place which he should later receive as an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing where he was to go.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:11 @ Through faith Sarah herself received the ability to conceive, and delivered a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.

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

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

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac: he who had received the promises was ready to offer up his only begotten son,

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:19 @ For he reasoned that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from which, figuratively, he did receive him back.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he was grown, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:25 @ Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin;

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:26 @ Considering abuse for the sake of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he looked ahead to the reward.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:28 @ By faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he who destroyed the firstborn should touch them.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith they passed through the Red sea as on dry land: but when the Egyptians attempted to do so, they were drowned.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what more shall I say? for time would fail me if I told of Gideon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthah; of David, and Samuel, and of the prophets:

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:34 @ Quenched the power of the raging fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, grew mighty in battle, turned foreign armies to flight.

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead, raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:

rkjnt@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn apart, they were tempted, they were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:2 @ Looking to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:4 @ You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood in your striving against sin.

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:5 @ And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as sons, My son, do not think lightly of the discipline of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked by him:

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:9 @ Furthermore, we have had earthly fathers who corrected us, and we gave them respect: shall we not much more be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them; but he disciplines us for our good, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:11 @ At the time, no discipline seems to be joyful, but painful: nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness for those who have been trained by it.

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:15 @ See to it that no man fails to obtain the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up should trouble you, and thereby defile many;

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

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you have not come to a mountain that may be touched, that burns with fire, and to darkness, and gloom, and tempest,

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:19 @ And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice whose words made those who heard beg that no further word should be spoken to them.

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:20 @ For they could not endure that which was commanded: If so much as a beast touches the mountain, it must be stoned.

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:22 @ But you have come to mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,

rkjnt@Hebrews:12:23 @ To the general assembly and church of the first-born, whose names are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of righteous men made perfect,

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

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:2 @ Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers: for by so doing some have entertained angels without knowing it.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:4 @ Marriage is to be held in honour by all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled: for the sexually immoral and adulterers God will judge.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:6 @ So we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man can do to me.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember those who lead you, who have spoken to you the word of God: consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:8 @ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not be carried away by varied and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing for the heart to be established by grace, not by foods, which have not benefitted those who have been occupied with them.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:10 @ We have an altar, from which those who serve at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:11 @ For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside the camp.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:13 @ Therefore, let us go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:14 @ For here we do not have an enduring city, but we seek the one which is to come.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:15 @ Therefore, through him let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:16 @ Do not forget to do good and to share: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey those who lead you, and submit to them: for they watch over your souls as those who must give account. Let it be a joyful task for them, not a sad one: for that would be unprofitable for you.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:18 @ Pray for us: for we are sure we have a good conscience, in all things desiring to live honestly.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:19 @ I urge you more earnestly to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

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

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:22 @ And I urge you, brethren, bear with this word of exhortation: for I have written to you a letter of few words.

rkjnt@Hebrews:13:23 @ I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been set at liberty; with whom, if he arrives shortly, I will come to see you.

rkjnt@James:1:1 @ James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greetings.

rkjnt@James:1:5 @ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men liberally, and without reproach; and it shall be given him.

rkjnt@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, without wavering. For he who wavers is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.

rkjnt@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures trial: for when he has stood the test, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love him.

rkjnt@James:1:19 @ Therefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger:

rkjnt@James:1:21 @ Therefore, lay aside all filthiness and the wickedness that is so abundant, and receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

rkjnt@James:1:25 @ But whoever looks into the perfect law of liberty, and perseveres in it, not being a forgetful hearer, but an active doer, this man shall be blessed in what he does.

rkjnt@James:1:26 @ If any man among you thinks he is religious, but does not bridle his tongue, he deceives his own heart and his religion is in vain.

rkjnt@James:1:27 @ This is pure and undefiled religion before God the Father: To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unspotted by the world.

rkjnt@James:2:2 @ For if there comes into your assembly a man with a gold ring, in fine apparel, and there also comes in a poor man in shabby clothing,

rkjnt@James:2:3 @ And you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say to him, Sit here in a good place; and say to the poor man, Stand there, or sit here beside my footstool:

rkjnt@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren, Has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

rkjnt@James:2:6 @ But you have despised the poor. Is it not the rich who oppress you, and drag you into court?

rkjnt@James:2:8 @ If you fulfill the royal law, according to the scripture, You shall love your neighbour as yourself, you do well,

rkjnt@James:2:16 @ And one of you says to him, Depart in peace, be warmed and filled; yet you do not give him the things which are necessary for the body; of what benefit is that?

rkjnt@James:2:20 @ Do you want to be shown, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

rkjnt@James:2:23 @ And the scripture was fulfilled which says, Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

rkjnt@James:3:2 @ For we all stumble in many ways. If any man does not stumble in his words, he is a perfect man, and able also to bridle his whole body.

rkjnt@James:3:5 @ Even so, the tongue is a small part of the body, and it boasts of great things. Behold how great a forest is kindled by a little fire!

rkjnt@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity among our members. It defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the whole course of life; and is itself set on fire by hell.

rkjnt@James:3:8 @ But the tongue no man can tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

rkjnt@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

rkjnt@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

rkjnt@James:4:5 @ Do you think that the scripture speaks in vain when it says, The spirit he made to dwell in us tends toward envious desires?

rkjnt@James:4:6 @ But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

rkjnt@James:4:7 @ Therefore, submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

rkjnt@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

rkjnt@James:4:9 @ Be miserable, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to gloom.

rkjnt@James:4:12 @ There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: but who are you to judge your neighbour?

rkjnt@James:4:13 @ Come now, you who say, Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, and remain there a year, and buy and sell, and make a profit.

rkjnt@James:4:14 @ Yet you do not even know what shall happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is just a vapour, that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away.

rkjnt@James:4:15 @ Instead you ought to say, If the Lord wills, we shall live, and do this, or that.

rkjnt@James:4:17 @ Therefore, for him who knows the good he ought to do, and does not do it, for him it is sin.

rkjnt@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver is corroded; and their rust shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as if it were fire. You have heaped treasure together in the last days.

rkjnt@James:5:12 @ But above all things, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven, or by the earth, or with any other oath: but let your yes be yes; and your no, no; lest you fall into condemnation.

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

rkjnt@1Peter:1:1 @ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the exiles scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

rkjnt@1Peter:1:2 @ Chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, and sanctified by the Spirit for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by his blood: Grace and peace be multiplied to you.

rkjnt@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who by his abundant mercy has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

rkjnt@1Peter:1:4 @ To an imperishable and undefiled inheritance, that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you,

rkjnt@1Peter:1:5 @ Who are guarded by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

rkjnt@1Peter:1:6 @ In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a time you may have to suffer various trials:

rkjnt@1Peter:1:7 @ That the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold, which perishes, though it is tested by fire, might be found to result in praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@1Peter:1:10 @ Of this salvation, the prophets who prophesied of the grace that should come to you enquired and searched diligently:

rkjnt@1Peter:1:11 @ Seeking to find to whom and when the Spirit of Christ within them was pointing, when he testified beforehand of the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow.

rkjnt@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that they did not serve themselves, but you, in the things which have now been made known to you by those who preached the gospel to you through the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; things into which angels desire to look.

rkjnt@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore gird up your minds, be sober, and fix your hope fully on the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@1Peter:1:14 @ Live as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the lusts of your former ignorance:

rkjnt@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you address as Father the one who without partiality judges according to every man's work, then pass the time of your stay on earth in reverent fear:

rkjnt@1Peter:1:25 @ But the word of the Lord endures forever. And this is the word that was preached to you.

rkjnt@1Peter:2:4 @ Coming to him as to a living stone, rejected by men, but chosen by God, and precious,

rkjnt@1Peter:2:5 @ You also, as living stones, are being built up into a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@1Peter:2:6 @ For this is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a cornerstone, chosen and precious: and he who believes in him shall not be put to shame.

rkjnt@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore, to you who believe, he is precious: but to those who disbelieve, the stone which the builders rejected has become the very cornerstone,

rkjnt@1Peter:2:8 @ And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence; they stumble at the word, being disobedient: as they were appointed to do.

rkjnt@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God; that you should declare the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.

rkjnt@1Peter:2:13 @ Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme authority;

rkjnt@1Peter:2:14 @ Or to governors, as to those who are sent by him to punish evildoers, and to praise those who do well.

rkjnt@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, be subject to your masters with all respect; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the perverse.

rkjnt@1Peter:2:19 @ For this is commendable, if for the sake of conscience toward God, a man endures sorrow while suffering wrongfully.

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

rkjnt@1Peter:2:23 @ And when he was reviled, he did not revile in return; and when he suffered, he did not threaten; but committed himself to him who judges righteously.

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

rkjnt@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were like sheep going astray; but you have now returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.

rkjnt@1Peter:3:1 @ Likewise, you wives, be in subjection to your husbands; so that, if any do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the behaviour of the wives;

rkjnt@1Peter:3:5 @ For in this manner the holy women in days of old, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, and were submissive to their husbands.

rkjnt@1Peter:3:6 @ Thus Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: and you are her daughters, if you do right, and do not give way to fear.

rkjnt@1Peter:3:7 @ Likewise, you husbands, live with your wives considerately, giving honour to the woman as the weaker vessel, since you are heirs together of the grace of life. Do this that your prayers may not be hindered.

rkjnt@1Peter:3:9 @ Do not return evil for evil, or insult for insult: but instead with blessing; knowing that you were called to this, that you should inherit a blessing.

rkjnt@1Peter:3:10 @ For, He who would love life, and see good days, let him restrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking guile:

rkjnt@1Peter:3:12 @ For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

rkjnt@1Peter:3:15 @ But set apart Christ as Lord in your hearts: and always be ready to give an answer to every man who asks you the reason for the hope that is in you; but do it with gentleness and respect,

rkjnt@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit,

rkjnt@1Peter:3:19 @ In which he went and preached to the spirits in prison,

rkjnt@1Peter:3:21 @ This water symbolizes baptism, which now saves us (not by the removal of dirt from the body, but by an appeal of a good conscience to God,) through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

rkjnt@1Peter:3:22 @ Who has gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; with angels and authorities and powers made subject to him.

rkjnt@1Peter:4:3 @ For the time past was sufficient for doing the things the Gentiles desire to do: living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, revelling, carousing, and abominable idolatries.

rkjnt@1Peter:4:4 @ They think it strange that you do not run with them into the same excess of dissipation, and they speak evil of you:

rkjnt@1Peter:4:5 @ But they shall give an account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.

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

rkjnt@1Peter:4:9 @ Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

rkjnt@1Peter:4:10 @ As every man has received a gift, so he should use it to serve one another, as befits good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

rkjnt@1Peter:4:11 @ If any man speak, let it be as one who speaks the oracles of God; if any man serves, let him do it as by the strength which God supplies: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

rkjnt@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial which comes upon you to test you, as though some strange thing was happened to you:

rkjnt@1Peter:4:19 @ Therefore, let those who suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to a faithful Creator by doing right.

rkjnt@1Peter:5:3 @ Not being lords over those in your charge, but being examples to the flock.

rkjnt@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise, you who are younger, submit yourselves to the elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another: for God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

rkjnt@1Peter:5:10 @ But the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

rkjnt@1Peter:5:11 @ To him be dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

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

rkjnt@1Peter:5:13 @ She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you; and so does Mark, my son.

rkjnt@2Peter:1:1 @ Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who, through the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ, have obtained the same precious faith as ours:

rkjnt@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,

rkjnt@2Peter:1:3 @ Whose divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who has called us by his own glory and virtue:

rkjnt@2Peter:1:4 @ By which he has given to us exceedingly great and precious promises: that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

rkjnt@2Peter:1:5 @ For this very reason, give all diligence to add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

rkjnt@2Peter:1:6 @ And to knowledge self-control; and to self-control perseverance; and to perseverance godliness;

rkjnt@2Peter:1:7 @ And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness love.

rkjnt@2Peter:1:10 @ Therefore, brethren, be all the more diligent to make your calling and election sure: for if you do these things, you shall never fall:

rkjnt@2Peter:1:11 @ For in this way an entrance shall be abundantly provided for you into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@2Peter:1:13 @ Yea, I think it right, as long as I am in this tent of my body, to stir you up way of reminder;

rkjnt@2Peter:1:15 @ Moreover, I will endeavour to see to it that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.

rkjnt@2Peter:1:16 @ For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

rkjnt@2Peter:1:17 @ For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came a voice to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

rkjnt@2Peter:1:19 @ And so we have the word of prophecy made more certain; to which you would do well to take heed, as to a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the morning star arises in your hearts:

rkjnt@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into pits of gloom, to be reserved for judgment;

rkjnt@2Peter:2:6 @ If he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, overthrowing them and turning them into ashes, and made them an example to those who would be ungodly;

rkjnt@2Peter:2:8 @ (For that righteous man dwelt among them, seeing and hearing, and his righteous soul was vexed from day to day by their unlawful deeds;)

rkjnt@2Peter:2:9 @ Then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust under punishment until the day of judgment:

rkjnt@2Peter:2:10 @ And particularly those who walk after the flesh in its unclean lusts, and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of the glorious ones.

rkjnt@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of things they do not understand; and shall utterly perish with them in the same destruction;

rkjnt@2Peter:2:13 @ And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness. They count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, revelling in their own deceptions while they feast with you;

rkjnt@2Peter:2:19 @ While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the slaves of depravity: for by that which a man is overcome, to that he is enslaved.

rkjnt@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

rkjnt@2Peter:2:22 @ But it has happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog returns to its own vomit; and the sow that is washed returns to wallowing in the mire.

rkjnt@2Peter:3:1 @ This is now the second letter, beloved, that I have written to you, in which I stir up your sincere minds by way of remembrance:

rkjnt@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some men count slowness; but is patient toward you, not wanting that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

rkjnt@2Peter:3:11 @ Seeing then that all these things shall be destroyed, what kind of people ought you to be? You should live holy and godly lives,

rkjnt@2Peter:3:13 @ But we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.

rkjnt@2Peter:3:15 @ And consider the patience of our Lord to be salvation; just as our beloved brother Paul has written to you, according to the wisdom given to him,

rkjnt@2Peter:3:16 @ Speaking of these things, as he does in all his letters. In them are some things that are hard to understand, which those who are unlearned and unstable distort, as they do the other scriptures, to their own destruction.

rkjnt@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever. Amen.

rkjnt@1John:1:2 @ (For the life was revealed, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us;)

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

rkjnt@1John:1:4 @ And these things we write to you, that our joy may be complete.

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

rkjnt@1John:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

rkjnt@1John:2:1 @ My little children, these things I write to you, that you may not sin. And if any man does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

rkjnt@1John:2:2 @ And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

rkjnt@1John:2:6 @ He who says he abides in him ought also to walk as he walked.

rkjnt@1John:2:7 @ Brethren, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard.

rkjnt@1John:2:8 @ Yet, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you: because the darkness is passing away, and the true light now shines.

rkjnt@1John:2:12 @ I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his name's sake.

rkjnt@1John:2:13 @ I write to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, little children, because you have known the Father.

rkjnt@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.

rkjnt@1John:2:21 @ I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie is of the truth.

rkjnt@1John:2:26 @ These things I have written to you concerning those who would deceive you.

rkjnt@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which you have received from him abides in you, and you do not need any man to teach you: but his anointing teaches you all things, and is true, and is no lie, and just as it has taught you, abide in him.

rkjnt@1John:3:1 @ Behold, how great is the love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God; and so we are. The world does not know us, because it did not know him.

rkjnt@1John:3:5 @ And you know that he was revealed to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

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

rkjnt@1John:3:16 @ By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

rkjnt@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, then we have confidence toward God;

rkjnt@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God: because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

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

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

rkjnt@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

rkjnt@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

rkjnt@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has to do with punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.

rkjnt@1John:5:4 @ For everyone who is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

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

rkjnt@1John:5:13 @ These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God; that you may know that you have eternal life.

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

rkjnt@1John:5:16 @ If any man sees his brother commit a sin which does not lead to death, he shall ask, and God shall grant him life, for those whose sin is not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say that he should pray for that.

rkjnt@1John:5:17 @ All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin that does not lead to death.

rkjnt@1John:5:18 @ We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who was begotten of God keeps him, and the wicked one does not touch him.

rkjnt@2John:1:1 @ The elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not only I, but also all those who know the truth,

rkjnt@2John:1:4 @ I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children walking in truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.

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

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

rkjnt@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have gone out into the world, who do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Such a one is a deceiver and an antichrist.

rkjnt@2John:1:8 @ Look to yourselves, that you do not lose those things which we have worked for, but that you may receive a full reward.

rkjnt@2John:1:9 @ Whoever runs too far ahead, and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. He who abides in the teaching of Christ has both the Father and the Son.

rkjnt@2John:1:10 @ If anyone comes to you, and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, or give him any encouragement:

rkjnt@2John:1:12 @ Though I have many things to write to you, I do not want to do so with paper and ink: but I hope to come to you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.

rkjnt@3John:1:1 @ The elder to the beloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth.

rkjnt@3John:1:4 @ I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.

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

rkjnt@3John:1:9 @ I wrote to the church: but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept us.

rkjnt@3John:1:10 @ Therefore, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds, prating against us with malicious words: and not content with that, he refuses to welcome the brethren, and forbids those who would, and casts them out of the church.

rkjnt@3John:1:13 @ I had many things to write, but I prefer not to write with pen and ink:

rkjnt@3John:1:14 @ But I hope I shall see you shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.

rkjnt@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are called by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:

rkjnt@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, while my whole concern was to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write and exhort you to earnestly contend for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

rkjnt@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men have crept in secretly, who were long ago ordained for this condemnation; ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into licentiousness, and denying our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

rkjnt@Jude:1:5 @ Now I wish to remind you, though you already know all this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.

rkjnt@Jude:1:7 @ Just as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them, which gave themselves over in a similar manner to sexual immorality, and to going after strange flesh, are set forth as an example of suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

rkjnt@Jude:1:9 @ Yet Michael the archangel, when he contended with the devil and argued over the body of Moses, did not dare to bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke you.

rkjnt@Jude:1:11 @ Woe to them! for they have gone the way of Cain, and for profit have plunged into the error of Balaam, and have perished in the rebellion of Korah.

rkjnt@Jude:1:15 @ To execute judgment upon all, and to convict all who are ungodly of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh words which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

rkjnt@Jude:1:16 @ These are grumblers, complainers, following after their own lusts; and their mouths speak great swelling words, flattering people to gain an advantage.

rkjnt@Jude:1:24 @ Now to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless in the presence of his glory with exceedingly great joy,
