nkjv@Matthew:1:1 @ The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham:

nkjv@Matthew:1:3 @ Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram.

nkjv@Matthew:1:4 @ Ram begot Amminadab, Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon.

nkjv@Matthew:1:5 @ Salmon begot Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse,

nkjv@Matthew:1:6 @ and Jesse begot David the king. David the king begot Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah.

nkjv@Matthew:1:7 @ Solomon begot Rehoboam, Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa.

nkjv@Matthew:1:10 @ Hezekiah begot Manasseh, Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah.

nkjv@Matthew:1:11 @ Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers about the time they were carried away to Babylon.

nkjv@Matthew:1:12 @ And after they were brought to Babylon, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel.

nkjv@Matthew:1:17 @ So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, from David until the captivity in Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the captivity in Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations.

nkjv@Matthew:1:20 @ But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Matthew:1:21 @ And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins."

nkjv@Matthew:1:22 @ So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:

nkjv@Matthew:1:23 @ "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us."

nkjv@Matthew:1:25 @ and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name JESUS.

nkjv@Matthew:2:6 @ "But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, Are not the least among the rulers of Judah; For out of you shall come a Ruler Who will shepherd My people Israel."'

nkjv@Matthew:2:15 @ and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "Out of Egypt I called My Son."

nkjv@Matthew:2:18 @ "A voice was heard in Ramah, Lamentation, weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, Refusing to be comforted, Because they are no more."

nkjv@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea instead of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned by God in a dream, he turned aside into the region of Galilee.

nkjv@Matthew:3:3 @ For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight."'

nkjv@Matthew:3:4 @ Now John himself was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather belt around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

nkjv@Matthew:3:5 @ Then Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him

nkjv@Matthew:3:6 @ and were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

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

nkjv@Matthew:3:16 @ When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.

nkjv@Matthew:3:17 @ And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

nkjv@Matthew:4:3 @ Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."

nkjv@Matthew:4:4 @ But He answered and said, "It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God."'

nkjv@Matthew:4:5 @ Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple,

nkjv@Matthew:4:6 @ and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: "He shall give His angels charge over you,' and, "In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone."'

nkjv@Matthew:4:8 @ Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

nkjv@Matthew:4:10 @ Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, "You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve."'

nkjv@Matthew:4:12 @ Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee.

nkjv@Matthew:4:13 @ And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali,

nkjv@Matthew:4:15 @ "The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:

nkjv@Matthew:4:16 @ The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death Light has dawned."

nkjv@Matthew:4:18 @ And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

nkjv@Matthew:4:21 @ Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them,

nkjv@Matthew:4:23 @ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.

nkjv@Matthew:4:24 @ Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them.

nkjv@Matthew:4:25 @ Great multitudes followed Him--from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.

nkjv@Matthew:5:1 @ And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him.

nkjv@Matthew:5:9 @ Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.

nkjv@Matthew:5:13 @ "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

nkjv@Matthew:5:14 @ "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

nkjv@Matthew:5:15 @ Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

nkjv@Matthew:5:18 @ For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

nkjv@Matthew:5:19 @ Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:5:24 @ leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.

nkjv@Matthew:5:25 @ Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are on the way with him, lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, the judge hand you over to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.

nkjv@Matthew:5:29 @ If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

nkjv@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

nkjv@Matthew:5:32 @ But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.

nkjv@Matthew:5:34 @ But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne;

nkjv@Matthew:5:36 @ Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black.

nkjv@Matthew:5:37 @ But let your "Yes' be "Yes,' and your "No,' "No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.

nkjv@Matthew:5:39 @ But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.

nkjv@Matthew:5:40 @ If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also.

nkjv@Matthew:5:41 @ And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.

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

nkjv@Matthew:5:47 @ And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?

nkjv@Matthew:6:5 @ "And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

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

nkjv@Matthew:6:10 @ Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:6:13 @ And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

nkjv@Matthew:6:19 @ "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal;

nkjv@Matthew:6:24 @ "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

nkjv@Matthew:6:25 @ "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?

nkjv@Matthew:6:27 @ Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

nkjv@Matthew:6:28 @ "So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;

nkjv@Matthew:6:29 @ and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

nkjv@Matthew:7:3 @ And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye?

nkjv@Matthew:7:8 @ For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

nkjv@Matthew:7:9 @ Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?

nkjv@Matthew:7:13 @ "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.

nkjv@Matthew:7:21 @ "Not everyone who says to Me, "Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:7:22 @ Many will say to Me in that day, "Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?'

nkjv@Matthew:7:24 @ "Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:

nkjv@Matthew:7:25 @ and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

nkjv@Matthew:7:26 @ "But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand:

nkjv@Matthew:7:27 @ and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall."

nkjv@Matthew:7:28 @ And so it was, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the people were astonished at His teaching,

nkjv@Matthew:7:29 @ for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

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

nkjv@Matthew:8:5 @ Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him,

nkjv@Matthew:8:8 @ The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.

nkjv@Matthew:8:9 @ For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, "Go,' and he goes; and to another, "Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, "Do this,' and he does it."

nkjv@Matthew:8:12 @ But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

nkjv@Matthew:8:13 @ Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you." And his servant was healed that same hour.

nkjv@Matthew:8:16 @ When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick,

nkjv@Matthew:8:20 @ And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."

nkjv@Matthew:8:24 @ And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep.

nkjv@Matthew:8:28 @ When He had come to the other side, to the country of the Gergesenes, there met Him two demon-possessed men, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one could pass that way.

nkjv@Matthew:8:29 @ And suddenly they cried out, saying, "What have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?"

nkjv@Matthew:8:31 @ So the demons begged Him, saying, "If You cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine."

nkjv@Matthew:8:33 @ Then those who kept them fled; and they went away into the city and told everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men.

nkjv@Matthew:8:34 @ And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged Him to depart from their region.

nkjv@Matthew:9:2 @ Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you."

nkjv@Matthew:9:3 @ And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, "This Man blasphemes!"

nkjv@Matthew:9:6 @ But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins"--then He said to the paralytic, "Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house."

nkjv@Matthew:9:9 @ As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:9:15 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.

nkjv@Matthew:9:16 @ No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch pulls away from the garment, and the tear is made worse.

nkjv@Matthew:9:18 @ While He spoke these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped Him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay Your hand on her and she will live."

nkjv@Matthew:9:21 @ For she said to herself, "If only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well."

nkjv@Matthew:9:27 @ When Jesus departed from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out and saying, "Son of David, have mercy on us!"

nkjv@Matthew:9:30 @ And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, saying, "See that no one knows it."

nkjv@Matthew:9:32 @ As they went out, behold, they brought to Him a man, mute and demon-possessed.

nkjv@Matthew:9:33 @ And when the demon was cast out, the mute spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, "It was never seen like this in Israel!"

nkjv@Matthew:9:34 @ But the Pharisees said, "He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons."

nkjv@Matthew:9:35 @ Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

nkjv@Matthew:9:36 @ But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.

nkjv@Matthew:10:2 @ Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

nkjv@Matthew:10:3 @ Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;

nkjv@Matthew:10:4 @ Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:10:8 @ Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.

nkjv@Matthew:10:9 @ Provide neither gold nor silver nor copper in your money belts,

nkjv@Matthew:10:13 @ If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.

nkjv@Matthew:10:18 @ You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Matthew:10:23 @ When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

nkjv@Matthew:10:27 @ "Whatever I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops.

nkjv@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will.

nkjv@Matthew:10:32 @ "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:10:34 @ "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.

nkjv@Matthew:10:37 @ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.

nkjv@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward."

nkjv@Matthew:11:2 @ And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples

nkjv@Matthew:11:3 @ and said to Him, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?"

nkjv@Matthew:11:7 @ As they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

nkjv@Matthew:11:11 @ "Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

nkjv@Matthew:11:16 @ "But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their companions,

nkjv@Matthew:11:18 @ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, "He has a demon.'

nkjv@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, "Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' But wisdom is justified by her children."

nkjv@Matthew:11:20 @ Then He began to rebuke the cities in which most of His mighty works had been done, because they did not repent:

nkjv@Matthew:11:21 @ "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

nkjv@Matthew:11:22 @ But I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you.

nkjv@Matthew:11:23 @ And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades; for if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

nkjv@Matthew:11:27 @ All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.

nkjv@Matthew:11:29 @ Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

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

nkjv@Matthew:12:2 @ And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to Him, "Look, Your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath!"

nkjv@Matthew:12:4 @ how he entered the house of God and ate the showbread which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?

nkjv@Matthew:12:5 @ Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath, and are blameless?

nkjv@Matthew:12:6 @ Yet I say to you that in this place there is One greater than the temple.

nkjv@Matthew:12:7 @ But if you had known what this means, "I desire mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless.

nkjv@Matthew:12:8 @ For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath."

nkjv@Matthew:12:10 @ And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?"--that they might accuse Him.

nkjv@Matthew:12:11 @ Then He said to them, "What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?

nkjv@Matthew:12:12 @ Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."

nkjv@Matthew:12:18 @ "Behold! My Servant whom I have chosen, My Beloved in whom My soul is well pleased! I will put My Spirit upon Him, And He will declare justice to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Matthew:12:19 @ He will not quarrel nor cry out, Nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.

nkjv@Matthew:12:22 @ Then one was brought to Him who was demon-possessed, blind and mute; and He healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.

nkjv@Matthew:12:23 @ And all the multitudes were amazed and said, "Could this be the Son of David?"

nkjv@Matthew:12:24 @ Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, "This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons."

nkjv@Matthew:12:25 @ But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.

nkjv@Matthew:12:27 @ And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.

nkjv@Matthew:12:28 @ But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.

nkjv@Matthew:12:29 @ Or how can one enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.

nkjv@Matthew:12:32 @ Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.

nkjv@Matthew:12:37 @ For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."

nkjv@Matthew:12:39 @ But He answered and said to them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

nkjv@Matthew:12:40 @ For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

nkjv@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

nkjv@Matthew:12:42 @ The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.

nkjv@Matthew:12:43 @ "When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none.

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

nkjv@Matthew:12:47 @ Then one said to Him, "Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with You."

nkjv@Matthew:12:48 @ But He answered and said to the one who told Him, "Who is My mother and who are My brothers?"

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

nkjv@Matthew:13:2 @ And great multitudes were gathered together to Him, so that He got into a boat and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

nkjv@Matthew:13:5 @ Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth; and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth.

nkjv@Matthew:13:7 @ And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them.

nkjv@Matthew:13:8 @ But others fell on good ground and yielded a crop: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

nkjv@Matthew:13:19 @ When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is he who received seed by the wayside.

nkjv@Matthew:13:20 @ But he who received the seed on stony places, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;

nkjv@Matthew:13:21 @ yet he has no root in himself, but endures only for a while. For when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.

nkjv@Matthew:13:22 @ Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.

nkjv@Matthew:13:23 @ But he who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."

nkjv@Matthew:13:25 @ but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way.

nkjv@Matthew:13:28 @ He said to them, "An enemy has done this.' The servants said to him, "Do you want us then to go and gather them up?'

nkjv@Matthew:26:39 @ He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will."

nkjv@Matthew:26:40 @ Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "What! Could you not watch with Me one hour?

nkjv@Matthew:26:41 @ Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

nkjv@Matthew:26:42 @ Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done."

nkjv@Matthew:26:45 @ Then He came to His disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

nkjv@Matthew:26:47 @ And while He was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and elders of the people.

nkjv@Matthew:26:50 @ But Jesus said to him, "Friend, why have you come?" Then they came and laid hands on Jesus and took Him.

nkjv@Matthew:26:51 @ And suddenly, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

nkjv@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this was done that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled." Then all the disciples forsook Him and fled.

nkjv@Matthew:26:59 @ Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus to put Him to death,

nkjv@Matthew:26:60 @ but found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward

nkjv@Matthew:26:63 @ But Jesus kept silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, "I put You under oath by the living God: Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God!"

nkjv@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus said to him, "It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven."

nkjv@Matthew:26:71 @ And when he had gone out to the gateway, another girl saw him and said to those who were there, "This fellow also was with Jesus of Nazareth."

nkjv@Matthew:26:73 @ And a little later those who stood by came up and said to Peter, "Surely you also are one of them, for your speech betrays you."

nkjv@Matthew:27:2 @ And when they had bound Him, they led Him away and delivered Him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

nkjv@Matthew:27:3 @ Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

nkjv@Matthew:27:7 @ And they consulted together and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

nkjv@Matthew:27:14 @ But He answered him not one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.

nkjv@Matthew:27:15 @ Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished.

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

nkjv@Matthew:27:19 @ While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that just Man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of Him."

nkjv@Matthew:27:23 @ Then the governor said, "Why, what evil has He done?" But they cried out all the more, saying, "Let Him be crucified!"

nkjv@Matthew:27:24 @ When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, "I am innocent of the blood of this just Person. You see to it."

nkjv@Matthew:27:25 @ And all the people answered and said, "His blood be on us and on our children."

nkjv@Matthew:27:27 @ Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole garrison around Him.

nkjv@Matthew:27:28 @ And they stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

nkjv@Matthew:27:29 @ When they had twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!"

nkjv@Matthew:27:30 @ Then they spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head.

nkjv@Matthew:27:31 @ And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him away to be crucified.

nkjv@Matthew:27:32 @ Now as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross.

nkjv@Matthew:27:35 @ Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet: "They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots."

nkjv@Matthew:27:37 @ And they put up over His head the accusation written against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@Matthew:27:38 @ Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.

nkjv@Matthew:27:40 @ and saying, "You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross."

nkjv@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, "I am the Son of God."'

nkjv@Matthew:27:48 @ Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.

nkjv@Matthew:27:49 @ The rest said, "Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to save Him."

nkjv@Matthew:27:53 @ and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

nkjv@Matthew:27:54 @ So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

nkjv@Matthew:27:55 @ And many women who followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, were there looking on from afar,

nkjv@Matthew:27:56 @ among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's sons.

nkjv@Matthew:27:60 @ and laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.

nkjv@Matthew:27:62 @ On the next day, which followed the Day of Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered together to Pilate,

nkjv@Matthew:27:64 @ Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night and steal Him away, and say to the people, "He has risen from the dead.' So the last deception will be worse than the first."

nkjv@Matthew:27:66 @ So they went and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone and setting the guard.

nkjv@Matthew:28:2 @ And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it.

nkjv@Matthew:28:12 @ When they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,

nkjv@Matthew:28:15 @ So they took the money and did as they were instructed; and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

nkjv@Matthew:28:18 @ And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.

nkjv@Matthew:28:19 @ Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Mark:1:3 @ "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight."'

nkjv@Mark:1:4 @ John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

nkjv@Mark:1:5 @ Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.

nkjv@Mark:1:6 @ Now John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.

nkjv@Mark:1:7 @ And he preached, saying, "There comes One after me who is mightier than I, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.

nkjv@Mark:1:10 @ And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.

nkjv@Mark:1:11 @ Then a voice came from heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

nkjv@Mark:1:14 @ Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

nkjv@Mark:1:16 @ And as He walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

nkjv@Mark:1:19 @ When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.

nkjv@Mark:1:21 @ Then they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and taught.

nkjv@Mark:1:22 @ And they were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

nkjv@Mark:1:24 @ saying, "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are--the Holy One of God!"

nkjv@Mark:1:26 @ And when the unclean spirit had convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice, he came out of him.

nkjv@Mark:1:27 @ Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."

nkjv@Mark:1:28 @ And immediately His fame spread throughout all the region around Galilee.

nkjv@Mark:1:29 @ Now as soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

nkjv@Mark:1:30 @ But Simon's wife's mother lay sick with a fever, and they told Him about her at once.

nkjv@Mark:1:32 @ At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to Him all who were sick and those who were demon-possessed.

nkjv@Mark:1:34 @ Then He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:35 @ Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed.

nkjv@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon and those who were with Him searched for Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:37 @ When they found Him, they said to Him, "Everyone is looking for You."

nkjv@Mark:1:39 @ And He was preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and casting out demons.

nkjv@Mark:1:41 @ Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing; be cleansed."

nkjv@Mark:1:42 @ As soon as He had spoken, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.

nkjv@Mark:1:43 @ And He strictly warned him and sent him away at once,

nkjv@Mark:1:44 @ and said to him, "See that you say nothing to anyone; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things which Moses commanded, as a testimony to them."

nkjv@Mark:1:45 @ However, he went out and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread the matter, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter the city, but was outside in deserted places; and they came to Him from every direction.

nkjv@Mark:2:2 @ Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preached the word to them.

nkjv@Mark:2:4 @ And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying.

nkjv@Mark:2:5 @ When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven you."

nkjv@Mark:2:6 @ And some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts,

nkjv@Mark:2:7 @ "Why does this Man speak blasphemies like this? Who can forgive sins but God alone?"

nkjv@Mark:2:8 @ But immediately, when Jesus perceived in His spirit that they reasoned thus within themselves, He said to them, "Why do you reason about these things in your hearts?

nkjv@Mark:2:10 @ But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins"--He said to the paralytic,

nkjv@Mark:2:14 @ As He passed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him.

nkjv@Mark:2:19 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast.

nkjv@Mark:2:21 @ No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; or else the new piece pulls away from the old, and the tear is made worse.

nkjv@Mark:2:22 @ And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins."

nkjv@Mark:2:23 @ Now it happened that He went through the grainfields on the Sabbath; and as they went His disciples began to pluck the heads of grain.

nkjv@Mark:2:24 @ And the Pharisees said to Him, "Look, why do they do what is not lawful on the Sabbath?"

nkjv@Mark:2:28 @ Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath."

nkjv@Mark:3:2 @ So they watched Him closely, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:4 @ Then He said to them, "Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?" But they kept silent.

nkjv@Mark:3:8 @ and Jerusalem and Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and those from Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard how many things He was doing, came to Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:10 @ For He healed many, so that as many as had afflictions pressed about Him to touch Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:11 @ And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw Him, fell down before Him and cried out, saying, "You are the Son of God."

nkjv@Mark:3:13 @ And He went up on the mountain and called to Him those He Himself wanted. And they came to Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:15 @ and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons:

nkjv@Mark:3:16 @ Simon, to whom He gave the name Peter;

nkjv@Mark:3:17 @ James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, to whom He gave the name Boanerges, that is, "Sons of Thunder";

nkjv@Mark:3:18 @ Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite;

nkjv@Mark:3:22 @ And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, "He has Beelzebub," and, "By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons."

nkjv@Mark:3:27 @ No one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.

nkjv@Mark:3:28 @ "Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter;

nkjv@Mark:3:29 @ but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation"--

nkjv@Mark:4:1 @ And again He began to teach by the sea. And a great multitude was gathered to Him, so that He got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole multitude was on the land facing the sea.

nkjv@Mark:4:5 @ Some fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth; and immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of earth.

nkjv@Mark:4:7 @ And some seed fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no crop.

nkjv@Mark:4:8 @ But other seed fell on good ground and yielded a crop that sprang up, increased and produced: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred."

nkjv@Mark:4:10 @ But when He was alone, those around Him with the twelve asked Him about the parable.

nkjv@Mark:4:15 @ And these are the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.

nkjv@Mark:4:16 @ These likewise are the ones sown on stony ground who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

nkjv@Mark:4:17 @ and they have no root in themselves, and so endure only for a time. Afterward, when tribulation or persecution arises for the word's sake, immediately they stumble.

nkjv@Mark:4:18 @ Now these are the ones sown among thorns; they are the ones who hear the word,

nkjv@Mark:4:20 @ But these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred."

nkjv@Mark:4:21 @ Also He said to them, "Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand?

nkjv@Mark:4:23 @ If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear."

nkjv@Mark:4:26 @ And He said, "The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground,

nkjv@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a mustard seed which, when it is sown on the ground, is smaller than all the seeds on earth;

nkjv@Mark:4:34 @ But without a parable He did not speak to them. And when they were alone, He explained all things to His disciples.

nkjv@Mark:4:35 @ On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, "Let us cross over to the other side."

nkjv@Mark:4:36 @ Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him.

nkjv@Mark:4:38 @ But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, "Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?"

nkjv@Mark:4:41 @ And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, "Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!"

nkjv@Mark:5:3 @ who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no one could bind him, not even with chains,

nkjv@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains had been pulled apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces; neither could anyone tame him.

nkjv@Mark:5:5 @ And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones.

nkjv@Mark:5:7 @ And he cried out with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me."

nkjv@Mark:5:9 @ Then He asked him, "What is your name?" And he answered, saying, "My name is Legion; for we are many."

nkjv@Mark:5:12 @ So all the demons begged Him, saying, "Send us to the swine, that we may enter them."

nkjv@Mark:5:13 @ And at once Jesus gave them permission. Then the unclean spirits went out and entered the swine (there were about two thousand); and the herd ran violently down the steep place into the sea, and drowned in the sea.

nkjv@Mark:5:15 @ Then they came to Jesus, and saw the one who had been demon-possessed and had the legion, sitting and clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

nkjv@Mark:5:16 @ And those who saw it told them how it happened to him who had been demon-possessed, and about the swine.

nkjv@Mark:5:17 @ Then they began to plead with Him to depart from their region.

nkjv@Mark:5:18 @ And when He got into the boat, he who had been demon-possessed begged Him that he might be with Him.

nkjv@Mark:5:19 @ However, Jesus did not permit him, but said to him, "Go home to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He has had compassion on you."

nkjv@Mark:5:20 @ And he departed and began to proclaim in Decapolis all that Jesus had done for him; and all marveled.

nkjv@Mark:5:22 @ And behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue came, Jairus by name. And when he saw Him, he fell at His feet

nkjv@Mark:5:23 @ and begged Him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come and lay Your hands on her, that she may be healed, and she will live."

nkjv@Mark:5:24 @ So Jesus went with him, and a great multitude followed Him and thronged Him.

nkjv@Mark:5:28 @ For she said, "If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well."

nkjv@Mark:5:29 @ Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.

nkjv@Mark:5:30 @ And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, turned around in the crowd and said, "Who touched My clothes?"

nkjv@Mark:5:31 @ But His disciples said to Him, "You see the multitude thronging You, and You say, "Who touched Me?"'

nkjv@Mark:5:32 @ And He looked around to see her who had done this thing.

nkjv@Mark:5:34 @ And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction."

nkjv@Mark:5:36 @ As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, "Do not be afraid; only believe."

nkjv@Mark:5:37 @ And He permitted no one to follow Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

nkjv@Mark:5:39 @ When He came in, He said to them, "Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping."

nkjv@Mark:5:43 @ But He commanded them strictly that no one should know it, and said that something should be given her to eat.

nkjv@Mark:6:2 @ And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were astonished, saying, "Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands!

nkjv@Mark:6:3 @ Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?" So they were offended at Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:4 @ But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house."

nkjv@Mark:6:5 @ Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them.

nkjv@Mark:6:8 @ He commanded them to take nothing for the journey except a staff--no bag, no bread, no copper in their money belts--

nkjv@Mark:6:9 @ but to wear sandals, and not to put on two tunics.

nkjv@Mark:6:11 @ And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!"

nkjv@Mark:6:13 @ And they cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many who were sick, and healed them.

nkjv@Mark:6:15 @ Others said, "It is Elijah." And others said, "It is the Prophet, or like one of the prophets."

nkjv@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent and laid hold of John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; for he had married her.

nkjv@Mark:6:21 @ Then an opportune day came when Herod on his birthday gave a feast for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee.

nkjv@Mark:6:25 @ Immediately she came in with haste to the king and asked, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

nkjv@Mark:6:27 @ Immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded his head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in prison,

nkjv@Mark:6:28 @ brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

nkjv@Mark:6:30 @ Then the apostles gathered to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught.

nkjv@Mark:6:33 @ But the multitudes saw them departing, and many knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:34 @ And Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. So He began to teach them many things.

nkjv@Mark:6:39 @ Then He commanded them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass.

nkjv@Mark:6:41 @ And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fish He divided among them all.

nkjv@Mark:6:47 @ Now when evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea; and He was alone on the land.

nkjv@Mark:6:48 @ Then He saw them straining at rowing, for the wind was against them. Now about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea, and would have passed them by.

nkjv@Mark:6:49 @ And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed it was a ghost, and cried out;

nkjv@Mark:6:51 @ Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ceased. And they were greatly amazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled.

nkjv@Mark:6:55 @ ran through that whole surrounding region, and began to carry about on beds those who were sick to wherever they heard He was.

nkjv@Mark:7:3 @ For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands in a special way, holding the tradition of the elders.

nkjv@Mark:7:5 @ Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, "Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?"

nkjv@Mark:7:6 @ He answered and said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: "This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me.

nkjv@Mark:7:8 @ For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men --the washing of pitchers and cups, and many other such things you do."

nkjv@Mark:7:9 @ He said to them, "All too well you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition.

nkjv@Mark:7:10 @ For Moses said, "Honor your father and your mother'; and, "He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.'

nkjv@Mark:7:12 @ then you no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother,

nkjv@Mark:7:13 @ making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do."

nkjv@Mark:7:14 @ When He had called all the multitude to Himself, He said to them, "Hear Me, everyone, and understand:

nkjv@Mark:7:16 @ If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!"

nkjv@Mark:7:17 @ When He had entered a house away from the crowd, His disciples asked Him concerning the parable.

nkjv@Mark:7:21 @ For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

nkjv@Mark:7:24 @ From there He arose and went to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And He entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be hidden.

nkjv@Mark:7:26 @ The woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

nkjv@Mark:7:29 @ Then He said to her, "For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter."

nkjv@Mark:7:30 @ And when she had come to her house, she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.

nkjv@Mark:7:31 @ Again, departing from the region of Tyre and Sidon, He came through the midst of the region of Decapolis to the Sea of Galilee.

nkjv@Mark:7:32 @ Then they brought to Him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they begged Him to put His hand on him.

nkjv@Mark:7:33 @ And He took him aside from the multitude, and put His fingers in his ears, and He spat and touched his tongue.

nkjv@Mark:7:35 @ Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.

nkjv@Mark:7:36 @ Then He commanded them that they should tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more widely they proclaimed it.

nkjv@Mark:7:37 @ And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, "He has done all things well. He makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak."

nkjv@Mark:8:2 @ "I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now continued with Me three days and have nothing to eat.

nkjv@Mark:8:3 @ And if I send them away hungry to their own houses, they will faint on the way; for some of them have come from afar."

nkjv@Mark:8:4 @ Then His disciples answered Him, "How can one satisfy these people with bread here in the wilderness?"

nkjv@Mark:8:6 @ So He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground. And He took the seven loaves and gave thanks, broke them and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and they set them before the multitude.

nkjv@Mark:8:10 @ immediately got into the boat with His disciples, and came to the region of Dalmanutha.

nkjv@Mark:8:12 @ But He sighed deeply in His spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Assuredly, I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation."

nkjv@Mark:8:14 @ Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, and they did not have more than one loaf with them in the boat.

nkjv@Mark:8:16 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "It is because we have no bread."

nkjv@Mark:8:17 @ But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, "Why do you reason because you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive nor understand? Is your heart still hardened?

nkjv@Mark:8:23 @ So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. And when He had spit on his eyes and put His hands on him, He asked him if he saw anything.

nkjv@Mark:8:25 @ Then He put His hands on his eyes again and made him look up. And he was restored and saw everyone clearly.

nkjv@Mark:8:26 @ Then He sent him away to his house, saying, "Neither go into the town, nor tell anyone in the town."

nkjv@Mark:8:27 @ Now Jesus and His disciples went out to the towns of Caesarea Philippi; and on the road He asked His disciples, saying to them, "Who do men say that I am?"

nkjv@Mark:8:28 @ So they answered, "John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others, one of the prophets."

nkjv@Mark:8:30 @ Then He strictly warned them that they should tell no one about Him.

nkjv@Mark:8:31 @ And He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

nkjv@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels."

nkjv@Mark:9:2 @ Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them.

nkjv@Mark:9:3 @ His clothes became shining, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

nkjv@Mark:9:5 @ Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--

nkjv@Mark:9:7 @ And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!"

nkjv@Mark:9:8 @ Suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.

nkjv@Mark:9:9 @ Now as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things they had seen, till the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

nkjv@Mark:9:10 @ So they kept this word to themselves, questioning what the rising from the dead meant.

nkjv@Mark:9:12 @ Then He answered and told them, "Indeed, Elijah is coming first and restores all things. And how is it written concerning the Son of Man, that He must suffer many things and be treated with contempt?

nkjv@Mark:9:17 @ Then one of the crowd answered and said, "Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a mute spirit.

nkjv@Mark:9:19 @ He answered him and said, "O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me."

nkjv@Mark:9:20 @ Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.

nkjv@Mark:9:21 @ So He asked his father, "How long has this been happening to him?" And he said, "From childhood.

nkjv@Mark:9:22 @ And often he has thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us."

nkjv@Mark:9:26 @ Then the spirit cried out, convulsed him greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead, so that many said, "He is dead."

nkjv@Mark:9:30 @ Then they departed from there and passed through Galilee, and He did not want anyone to know it.

nkjv@Mark:9:31 @ For He taught His disciples and said to them, "The Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of men, and they will kill Him. And after He is killed, He will rise the third day."

nkjv@Mark:9:33 @ Then He came to Capernaum. And when He was in the house He asked them, "What was it you disputed among yourselves on the road?"

nkjv@Mark:9:34 @ But they kept silent, for on the road they had disputed among themselves who would be the greatest.

nkjv@Mark:9:35 @ And He sat down, called the twelve, and said to them, "If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all."

nkjv@Mark:9:37 @ "Whoever receives one of these little children in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me, receives not Me but Him who sent Me."

nkjv@Mark:9:38 @ Now John answered Him, saying, "Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow us."

nkjv@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him, for no one who works a miracle in My name can soon afterward speak evil of Me.

nkjv@Mark:9:40 @ For he who is not against us is on our side.

nkjv@Mark:9:41 @ For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.

nkjv@Mark:9:42 @ "But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.

nkjv@Mark:9:47 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire--

nkjv@Mark:9:49 @ "For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.

nkjv@Mark:9:50 @ Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another."

nkjv@Mark:10:1 @ Then He arose from there and came to the region of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And multitudes gathered to Him again, and as He was accustomed, He taught them again.

nkjv@Mark:10:6 @ But from the beginning of the creation, God "made them male and female.'

nkjv@Mark:10:7 @ "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,

nkjv@Mark:10:8 @ and the two shall become one flesh'; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh.

nkjv@Mark:10:16 @ And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them.

nkjv@Mark:10:17 @ Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?"

nkjv@Mark:10:18 @ So Jesus said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God.

nkjv@Mark:10:19 @ You know the commandments: "Do not commit adultery,' "Do not murder,' "Do not steal,' "Do not bear false witness,' "Do not defraud,' "Honor your father and your mother."'

nkjv@Mark:10:21 @ Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me."

nkjv@Mark:10:22 @ But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.

nkjv@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!

nkjv@Mark:10:26 @ And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, "Who then can be saved?"

nkjv@Mark:10:29 @ So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's,

nkjv@Mark:10:30 @ who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time--houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions--and in the age to come, eternal life.

nkjv@Mark:10:32 @ Now they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them; and they were amazed. And as they followed they were afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that would happen to Him:

nkjv@Mark:10:33 @ "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him to the Gentiles;

nkjv@Mark:10:34 @ and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again."

nkjv@Mark:10:35 @ Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, "Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask."

nkjv@Mark:10:37 @ They said to Him, "Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left, in Your glory."

nkjv@Mark:10:40 @ but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared."

nkjv@Mark:10:42 @ But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, "You know that those who are considered rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

nkjv@Mark:10:43 @ Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.

nkjv@Mark:10:45 @ For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."

nkjv@Mark:10:46 @ Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging.

nkjv@Mark:10:47 @ And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nkjv@Mark:10:48 @ Then many warned him to be quiet; but he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nkjv@Mark:10:51 @ So Jesus answered and said to him, "What do you want Me to do for you?" The blind man said to Him, "Rabboni, that I may receive my sight."

nkjv@Mark:10:52 @ Then Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.

nkjv@Mark:11:2 @ and He said to them, "Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it.

nkjv@Mark:11:3 @ And if anyone says to you, "Why are you doing this?' say, "The Lord has need of it,' and immediately he will send it here."

nkjv@Mark:11:4 @ So they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door outside on the street, and they loosed it.

nkjv@Mark:11:7 @ Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and He sat on it.

nkjv@Mark:11:8 @ And many spread their clothes on the road, and others cut down leafy branches from the trees and spread them on the road.

nkjv@Mark:11:13 @ And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

nkjv@Mark:11:14 @ In response Jesus said to it, "Let no one eat fruit from you ever again." And His disciples heard it.

nkjv@Mark:11:15 @ So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

nkjv@Mark:11:16 @ And He would not allow anyone to carry wares through the temple.

nkjv@Mark:11:17 @ Then He taught, saying to them, "Is it not written, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations'? But you have made it a "den of thieves."'

nkjv@Mark:11:18 @ And the scribes and chief priests heard it and sought how they might destroy Him; for they feared Him, because all the people were astonished at His teaching.

nkjv@Mark:11:23 @ For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, "Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

nkjv@Mark:11:25 @ "And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

nkjv@Mark:11:29 @ But Jesus answered and said to them, "I also will ask you one question; then answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:

nkjv@Mark:11:31 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "If we say, "From heaven,' He will say, "Why then did you not believe him?'

nkjv@Mark:12:4 @ Again he sent them another servant, and at him they threw stones, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.

nkjv@Mark:12:6 @ Therefore still having one son, his beloved, he also sent him to them last, saying, "They will respect my son.'

nkjv@Mark:12:7 @ But those vinedressers said among themselves, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

nkjv@Mark:12:10 @ Have you not even read this Scripture: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone.

nkjv@Mark:12:12 @ And they sought to lay hands on Him, but feared the multitude, for they knew He had spoken the parable against them. So they left Him and went away.

nkjv@Mark:12:14 @ When they had come, they said to Him, "Teacher, we know that You are true, and care about no one; for You do not regard the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

nkjv@Mark:12:16 @ So they brought it. And He said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?" They said to Him, "Caesar's."

nkjv@Mark:12:18 @ Then some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him; and they asked Him, saying:

nkjv@Mark:12:21 @ And the second took her, and he died; nor did he leave any offspring. And the third likewise.

nkjv@Mark:12:23 @ Therefore, in the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be? For all seven had her as wife."

nkjv@Mark:12:26 @ But concerning the dead, that they rise, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the burning bush passage, how God spoke to him, saying, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'?

nkjv@Mark:12:28 @ Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him, "Which is the first commandment of all?"

nkjv@Mark:12:29 @ Jesus answered him, "The first of all the commandments is: "Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one.

nkjv@Mark:12:31 @ And the second, like it, is this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

nkjv@Mark:12:32 @ So the scribe said to Him, "Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, and there is no other but He.

nkjv@Mark:12:33 @ And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."

nkjv@Mark:12:34 @ Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." But after that no one dared question Him.

nkjv@Mark:12:35 @ Then Jesus answered and said, while He taught in the temple, "How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

nkjv@Mark:12:37 @ Therefore David himself calls Him "Lord'; how is He then his Son?" And the common people heard Him gladly.

nkjv@Mark:12:38 @ Then He said to them in His teaching, "Beware of the scribes, who desire to go around in long robes, love greetings in the marketplaces,

nkjv@Mark:12:40 @ who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation."

nkjv@Mark:12:41 @ Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money into the treasury. And many who were rich put in much.

nkjv@Mark:12:42 @ Then one poor widow came and threw in two mites, which make a quadrans.

nkjv@Mark:13:1 @ Then as He went out of the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, "Teacher, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!"

nkjv@Mark:13:2 @ And Jesus answered and said to him, "Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone shall be left upon another, that shall not be thrown down."

nkjv@Mark:13:3 @ Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately,

nkjv@Mark:13:5 @ And Jesus, answering them, began to say: "Take heed that no one deceives you.

nkjv@Mark:13:8 @ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.

nkjv@Mark:13:9 @ "But watch out for yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be beaten in the synagogues. You will be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them.

nkjv@Mark:13:19 @ For in those days there will be tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the creation which God created until this time, nor ever shall be.

nkjv@Mark:13:21 @ "Then if anyone says to you, "Look, here is the Christ!' or, "Look, He is there!' do not believe it.

nkjv@Mark:13:22 @ For false christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

nkjv@Mark:13:24 @ "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;

nkjv@Mark:13:32 @ "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

nkjv@Mark:14:3 @ And being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head.

nkjv@Mark:14:4 @ But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, "Why was this fragrant oil wasted?

nkjv@Mark:14:6 @ But Jesus said, "Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me.

nkjv@Mark:14:8 @ She has done what she could. She has come beforehand to anoint My body for burial.

nkjv@Mark:14:9 @ Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her."

nkjv@Mark:14:10 @ Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Him to them.

nkjv@Mark:14:11 @ And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. So he sought how he might conveniently betray Him.

nkjv@Mark:14:12 @ Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover lamb, His disciples said to Him, "Where do You want us to go and prepare, that You may eat the Passover?"

nkjv@Mark:14:18 @ Now as they sat and ate, Jesus said, "Assuredly, I say to you, one of you who eats with Me will betray Me."

nkjv@Mark:14:19 @ And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to Him one by one, "Is it I?" And another said, "Is it I?"

nkjv@Mark:14:20 @ He answered and said to them, "It is one of the twelve, who dips with Me in the dish.

nkjv@Mark:14:21 @ The Son of Man indeed goes just as it is written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had never been born."

nkjv@Mark:14:25 @ Assuredly, I say to you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Mark:14:35 @ He went a little farther, and fell on the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him.

nkjv@Mark:14:37 @ Then He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not watch one hour?

nkjv@Mark:14:38 @ Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

nkjv@Mark:14:41 @ Then He came the third time and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

nkjv@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

nkjv@Mark:14:44 @ Now His betrayer had given them a signal, saying, "Whomever I kiss, He is the One; seize Him and lead Him away safely."

nkjv@Mark:14:45 @ As soon as he had come, immediately he went up to Him and said to Him, "Rabbi, Rabbi!" and kissed Him.

nkjv@Mark:14:46 @ Then they laid their hands on Him and took Him.

nkjv@Mark:14:47 @ And one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

nkjv@Mark:14:55 @ Now the chief priests and all the council sought testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but found none.

nkjv@Mark:14:56 @ For many bore false witness against Him, but their testimonies did not agree.

nkjv@Mark:14:59 @ But not even then did their testimony agree.

nkjv@Mark:14:61 @ But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, "Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?"

nkjv@Mark:14:62 @ Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven."

nkjv@Mark:14:64 @ You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?" And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death.

nkjv@Mark:14:65 @ Then some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him, and to say to Him, "Prophesy!" And the officers struck Him with the palms of their hands.

nkjv@Mark:14:66 @ Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came.

nkjv@Mark:14:68 @ But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you are saying." And he went out on the porch, and a rooster crowed.

nkjv@Mark:14:69 @ And the servant girl saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by, "This is one of them."

nkjv@Mark:14:70 @ But he denied it again. And a little later those who stood by said to Peter again, "Surely you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it."

nkjv@Mark:14:72 @ A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." And when he thought about it, he wept.

nkjv@Mark:15:1 @ Immediately, in the morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council; and they bound Jesus, led Him away, and delivered Him to Pilate.

nkjv@Mark:15:6 @ Now at the feast he was accustomed to releasing one prisoner to them, whomever they requested.

nkjv@Mark:15:7 @ And there was one named Barabbas, who was chained with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the rebellion.

nkjv@Mark:15:8 @ Then the multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do just as he had always done for them.

nkjv@Mark:15:14 @ Then Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has He done?" But they cried out all the more, "Crucify Him!"

nkjv@Mark:15:16 @ Then the soldiers led Him away into the hall called Praetorium, and they called together the whole garrison.

nkjv@Mark:15:17 @ And they clothed Him with purple; and they twisted a crown of thorns, put it on His head,

nkjv@Mark:15:19 @ Then they struck Him on the head with a reed and spat on Him; and bowing the knee, they worshiped Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:20 @ And when they had mocked Him, they took the purple off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:21 @ Then they compelled a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, the father of Alexander and Rufus, as he was coming out of the country and passing by, to bear His cross.

nkjv@Mark:15:26 @ And the inscription of His accusation was written above: THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@Mark:15:27 @ With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left.

nkjv@Mark:15:31 @ Likewise the chief priests also, mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, "He saved others; Himself He cannot save.

nkjv@Mark:15:36 @ Then someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink, saying, "Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down."

nkjv@Mark:15:39 @ So when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, "Truly this Man was the Son of God!"

nkjv@Mark:15:40 @ There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joses, and Salome,

nkjv@Mark:15:42 @ Now when evening had come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,

nkjv@Mark:15:44 @ Pilate marveled that He was already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him if He had been dead for some time.

nkjv@Mark:15:45 @ So when he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.

nkjv@Mark:15:46 @ Then he bought fine linen, took Him down, and wrapped Him in the linen. And he laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.

nkjv@Mark:16:2 @ Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.

nkjv@Mark:16:3 @ And they said among themselves, "Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?"

nkjv@Mark:16:4 @ But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away--for it was very large.

nkjv@Mark:16:5 @ And entering the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a long white robe sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed.

nkjv@Mark:16:8 @ So they went out quickly and fled from the tomb, for they trembled and were amazed. And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

nkjv@Mark:16:9 @ Now when He rose early on the first day of the week, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.

nkjv@Mark:16:16 @ He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

nkjv@Mark:16:17 @ And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;

nkjv@Mark:16:18 @ they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."

nkjv@Mark:16:20 @ And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

nkjv@Luke:1:1 @ Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfilled among us,

nkjv@Luke:1:5 @ There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah. His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

nkjv@Luke:1:8 @ So it was, that while he was serving as priest before God in the order of his division,

nkjv@Luke:1:11 @ Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

nkjv@Luke:1:12 @ And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.

nkjv@Luke:1:13 @ But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.

nkjv@Luke:1:15 @ For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink. He will also be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

nkjv@Luke:1:21 @ And the people waited for Zacharias, and marveled that he lingered so long in the temple.

nkjv@Luke:1:22 @ But when he came out, he could not speak to them; and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple, for he beckoned to them and remained speechless.

nkjv@Luke:1:23 @ So it was, as soon as the days of his service were completed, that he departed to his own house.

nkjv@Luke:1:24 @ Now after those days his wife Elizabeth conceived; and she hid herself five months, saying,

nkjv@Luke:1:25 @ "Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among people."

nkjv@Luke:1:26 @ Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

nkjv@Luke:1:28 @ And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!"

nkjv@Luke:1:29 @ But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was.

nkjv@Luke:1:31 @ And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS.

nkjv@Luke:1:32 @ He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.

nkjv@Luke:1:35 @ And the angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.

nkjv@Luke:1:36 @ Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren.

nkjv@Luke:1:42 @ Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

nkjv@Luke:1:44 @ For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

nkjv@Luke:1:48 @ For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant; For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.

nkjv@Luke:1:49 @ For He who is mighty has done great things for me, And holy is His name.

nkjv@Luke:1:50 @ And His mercy is on those who fear Him From generation to generation.

nkjv@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown strength with His arm; He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

nkjv@Luke:1:52 @ He has put down the mighty from their thrones, And exalted the lowly.

nkjv@Luke:1:56 @ And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her house.

nkjv@Luke:1:57 @ Now Elizabeth's full time came for her to be delivered, and she brought forth a son.

nkjv@Luke:1:59 @ So it was, on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him by the name of his father, Zacharias.

nkjv@Luke:1:61 @ But they said to her, "There is no one among your relatives who is called by this name."

nkjv@Luke:1:64 @ Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, praising God.

nkjv@Luke:1:65 @ Then fear came on all who dwelt around them; and all these sayings were discussed throughout all the hill country of Judea.

nkjv@Luke:1:69 @ And has raised up a horn of salvation for us In the house of His servant David,

nkjv@Luke:1:77 @ To give knowledge of salvation to His people By the remission of their sins,

nkjv@Luke:1:78 @ Through the tender mercy of our God, With which the Dayspring from on high has visited us;

nkjv@Luke:1:80 @ So the child grew and became strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his manifestation to Israel.

nkjv@Luke:2:3 @ So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city.

nkjv@Luke:2:7 @ And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

nkjv@Luke:2:9 @ And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid.

nkjv@Luke:2:14 @ "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!"

nkjv@Luke:2:15 @ So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, "Let us now go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us."

nkjv@Luke:2:17 @ Now when they had seen Him, they made widely known the saying which was told them concerning this Child.

nkjv@Luke:2:19 @ But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.

nkjv@Luke:2:21 @ And when eight days were completed for the circumcision of the Child, His name was called JESUS, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.

nkjv@Luke:2:22 @ Now when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they brought Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord

nkjv@Luke:2:24 @ and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of the Lord, "A pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons."

nkjv@Luke:2:25 @ And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and devout, waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

nkjv@Luke:2:30 @ For my eyes have seen Your salvation

nkjv@Luke:2:32 @ A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of Your people Israel."

nkjv@Luke:2:34 @ Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, "Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against

nkjv@Luke:2:36 @ Now there was one, Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity;

nkjv@Luke:2:38 @ And coming in that instant she gave thanks to the Lord, and spoke of Him to all those who looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:2:40 @ And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him.

nkjv@Luke:2:44 @ but supposing Him to have been in the company, they went a day's journey, and sought Him among their relatives and acquaintances.

nkjv@Luke:2:46 @ Now so it was that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.

nkjv@Luke:2:47 @ And all who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers.

nkjv@Luke:2:48 @ So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, "Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously."

nkjv@Luke:3:1 @ Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,

nkjv@Luke:3:2 @ while Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

nkjv@Luke:3:3 @ And he went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins,

nkjv@Luke:3:4 @ as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight.

nkjv@Luke:3:6 @ And all flesh shall see the salvation of God."'

nkjv@Luke:3:8 @ Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, "We have Abraham as our father.' For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

nkjv@Luke:3:11 @ He answered and said to them, "He who has two tunics, let him give to him who has none; and he who has food, let him do likewise."

nkjv@Luke:3:14 @ Likewise the soldiers asked him, saying, "And what shall we do?" So he said to them, "Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages."

nkjv@Luke:3:15 @ Now as the people were in expectation, and all reasoned in their hearts about John, whether he was the Christ or not,

nkjv@Luke:3:16 @ John answered, saying to all, "I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

nkjv@Luke:3:18 @ And with many other exhortations he preached to the people.

nkjv@Luke:3:19 @ But Herod the tetrarch, being rebuked by him concerning Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,

nkjv@Luke:3:20 @ also added this, above all, that he shut John up in prison.

nkjv@Luke:3:22 @ And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, "You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased."

nkjv@Luke:3:23 @ Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli,

nkjv@Luke:3:38 @ the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.

nkjv@Luke:4:3 @ And the devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread."

nkjv@Luke:4:4 @ But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God."'

nkjv@Luke:4:5 @ Then the devil, taking Him up on a high mountain, showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

nkjv@Luke:4:8 @ And Jesus answered and said to him, "Get behind Me, Satan! For it is written, "You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve."'

nkjv@Luke:4:9 @ Then he brought Him to Jerusalem, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down from here.

nkjv@Luke:4:11 @ and, "In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone."'

nkjv@Luke:4:13 @ Now when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from Him until an opportune time.

nkjv@Luke:4:14 @ Then Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news of Him went out through all the surrounding region.

nkjv@Luke:4:16 @ So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.

nkjv@Luke:4:18 @ "The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed;

nkjv@Luke:4:23 @ He said to them, "You will surely say this proverb to Me, "Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in Your country."'

nkjv@Luke:4:25 @ But I tell you truly, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, and there was a great famine throughout all the land;

nkjv@Luke:4:26 @ but to none of them was Elijah sent except to Zarephath, in the region of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.

nkjv@Luke:4:27 @ And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian."

nkjv@Luke:4:29 @ and rose up and thrust Him out of the city; and they led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw Him down over the cliff.

nkjv@Luke:4:31 @ Then He went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the Sabbaths.

nkjv@Luke:4:32 @ And they were astonished at His teaching, for His word was with authority.

nkjv@Luke:4:33 @ Now in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon. And he cried out with a loud voice,

nkjv@Luke:4:34 @ saying, "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are--the Holy One of God!"

nkjv@Luke:4:35 @ But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him in their midst, it came out of him and did not hurt him.

nkjv@Luke:4:36 @ Then they were all amazed and spoke among themselves, saying, "What a word this is! For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out."

nkjv@Luke:4:37 @ And the report about Him went out into every place in the surrounding region.

nkjv@Luke:4:38 @ Now He arose from the synagogue and entered Simon's house. But Simon's wife's mother was sick with a high fever, and they made request of Him concerning her.

nkjv@Luke:4:40 @ When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and healed them.

nkjv@Luke:4:41 @ And demons also came out of many, crying out and saying, "You are the Christ, the Son of God!" And He, rebuking them, did not allow them to speak, for they knew that He was the Christ.

nkjv@Luke:5:2 @ and saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets.

nkjv@Luke:5:3 @ Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.

nkjv@Luke:5:4 @ When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, "Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch."

nkjv@Luke:5:5 @ But Simon answered and said to Him, "Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net."

nkjv@Luke:5:6 @ And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking.

nkjv@Luke:5:8 @ When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!"

nkjv@Luke:5:9 @ For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken;

nkjv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men."

nkjv@Luke:5:12 @ And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean."

nkjv@Luke:5:14 @ And He charged him to tell no one, "But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a testimony to them, just as Moses commanded."

nkjv@Luke:5:15 @ However, the report went around concerning Him all the more; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities.

nkjv@Luke:5:17 @ Now it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

nkjv@Luke:5:18 @ Then behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him.

nkjv@Luke:5:19 @ And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:5:21 @ And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, "Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?"

nkjv@Luke:5:22 @ But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, "Why are you reasoning in your hearts?

nkjv@Luke:5:24 @ But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins"--He said to the man who was paralyzed, "I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house."

nkjv@Luke:5:25 @ Immediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.

nkjv@Luke:5:36 @ Then He spoke a parable to them: "No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old.

nkjv@Luke:5:37 @ And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined.

nkjv@Luke:5:39 @ And no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, "The old is better."'

nkjv@Luke:6:1 @ Now it happened on the second Sabbath after the first that He went through the grainfields. And His disciples plucked the heads of grain and ate them, rubbing them in their hands.

nkjv@Luke:6:2 @ And some of the Pharisees said to them, "Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?"

nkjv@Luke:6:5 @ And He said to them, "The Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath."

nkjv@Luke:6:7 @ So the scribes and Pharisees watched Him closely, whether He would heal on the Sabbath, that they might find an accusation against Him.

nkjv@Luke:6:9 @ Then Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one thing: Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy?"

nkjv@Luke:6:11 @ But they were filled with rage, and discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:6:12 @ Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

nkjv@Luke:6:15 @ Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called the Zealot;

nkjv@Luke:6:16 @ Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot who also became a traitor.

nkjv@Luke:6:17 @ And He came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of His disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear Him and be healed of their diseases,

nkjv@Luke:6:49 @ But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great."

nkjv@Luke:7:1 @ Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum.

nkjv@Luke:7:2 @ And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die.

nkjv@Luke:7:4 @ And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving,

nkjv@Luke:7:5 @ "for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue."

nkjv@Luke:7:6 @ Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.

nkjv@Luke:7:8 @ For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, "Go,' and he goes; and to another, "Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, "Do this,' and he does it."

nkjv@Luke:7:12 @ And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her.

nkjv@Luke:7:13 @ When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, "Do not weep."

nkjv@Luke:7:16 @ Then fear came upon all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has risen up among us"; and, "God has visited His people."

nkjv@Luke:7:17 @ And this report about Him went throughout all Judea and all the surrounding region.

nkjv@Luke:7:18 @ Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things.

nkjv@Luke:7:19 @ And John, calling two of his disciples to him, sent them to Jesus, saying, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?"

nkjv@Luke:7:21 @ And that very hour He cured many of infirmities, afflictions, and evil spirits; and to many blind He gave sight.

nkjv@Luke:7:24 @ When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

nkjv@Luke:7:28 @ For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."

nkjv@Luke:8:13 @ But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away.

nkjv@Luke:8:14 @ Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

nkjv@Luke:8:15 @ But the ones that fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience.

nkjv@Luke:8:25 @ But He said to them, "Where is your faith?" And they were afraid, and marveled, saying to one another, "Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!"

nkjv@Luke:8:27 @ And when He stepped out on the land, there met Him a certain man from the city who had demons for a long time. And he wore no clothes, nor did he live in a house but in the tombs.

nkjv@Luke:8:28 @ When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before Him, and with a loud voice said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me!"

nkjv@Luke:8:29 @ For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had often seized him, and he was kept under guard, bound with chains and shackles; and he broke the bonds and was driven by the demon into the wilderness.

nkjv@Luke:8:30 @ Jesus asked him, saying, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion," because many demons had entered him.

nkjv@Luke:8:32 @ Now a herd of many swine was feeding there on the mountain. So they begged Him that He would permit them to enter them. And He permitted them.

nkjv@Luke:8:33 @ Then the demons went out of the man and entered the swine, and the herd ran violently down the steep place into the lake and drowned.

nkjv@Luke:8:35 @ Then they went out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

nkjv@Luke:8:36 @ They also who had seen it told them by what means he who had been demon-possessed was healed.

nkjv@Luke:8:37 @ Then the whole multitude of the surrounding region of the Gadarenes asked Him to depart from them, for they were seized with great fear. And He got into the boat and returned.

nkjv@Luke:8:38 @ Now the man from whom the demons had departed begged Him that he might be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

nkjv@Luke:8:39 @ "Return to your own house, and tell what great things God has done for you." And he went his way and proclaimed throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.

nkjv@Luke:8:42 @ for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as He went, the multitudes thronged Him.

nkjv@Luke:8:45 @ And Jesus said, "Who touched Me?" When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, "Master, the multitudes throng and press You, and You say, "Who touched Me?"'

nkjv@Luke:8:47 @ Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she declared to Him in the presence of all the people the reason she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.

nkjv@Luke:8:49 @ While He was still speaking, someone came from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, "Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the Teacher."

nkjv@Luke:8:50 @ But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, saying, "Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be made well."

nkjv@Luke:8:51 @ When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, James, and John, and the father and mother of the girl.

nkjv@Luke:8:56 @ And her parents were astonished, but He charged them to tell no one what had happened.

nkjv@Luke:9:1 @ Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

nkjv@Luke:9:3 @ And He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece.

nkjv@Luke:9:5 @ And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them."

nkjv@Luke:9:7 @ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

nkjv@Luke:9:8 @ and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

nkjv@Luke:9:10 @ And the apostles, when they had returned, told Him all that they had done. Then He took them and went aside privately into a deserted place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.

nkjv@Luke:9:12 @ When the day began to wear away, the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding towns and country, and lodge and get provisions; for we are in a deserted place here."

nkjv@Luke:9:18 @ And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"

nkjv@Luke:9:19 @ So they answered and said, "John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again."

nkjv@Luke:9:21 @ And He strictly warned and commanded them to tell this to no one,

nkjv@Luke:9:22 @ saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day."

nkjv@Luke:9:23 @ Then He said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.

nkjv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father's, and of the holy angels.

nkjv@Luke:9:28 @ Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

nkjv@Luke:9:33 @ Then it happened, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--not knowing what he said.

nkjv@Luke:9:35 @ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!"

nkjv@Luke:9:36 @ When the voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. But they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.

nkjv@Luke:9:37 @ Now it happened on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:38 @ Suddenly a man from the multitude cried out, saying, "Teacher, I implore You, look on my son, for he is my only child.

nkjv@Luke:9:39 @ And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out; it convulses him so that he foams at the mouth; and it departs from him with great difficulty, bruising him.

nkjv@Luke:9:41 @ Then Jesus answered and said, "O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here."

nkjv@Luke:9:42 @ And as he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father.

nkjv@Luke:9:43 @ And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But while everyone marveled at all the things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,

nkjv@Luke:9:44 @ "Let these words sink down into your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men."

nkjv@Luke:9:46 @ Then a dispute arose among them as to which of them would be greatest.

nkjv@Luke:9:48 @ and said to them, "Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great."

nkjv@Luke:9:49 @ Now John answered and said, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us."

nkjv@Luke:9:50 @ But Jesus said to him, "Do not forbid him, for he who is not against us is on our side."

nkjv@Luke:9:54 @ And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?"

nkjv@Luke:9:56 @ For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives but to save them." And they went to another village.

nkjv@Luke:9:57 @ Now it happened as they journeyed on the road, that someone said to Him, "Lord, I will follow You wherever You go."

nkjv@Luke:9:58 @ And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."

nkjv@Luke:9:62 @ But Jesus said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Luke:10:3 @ Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.

nkjv@Luke:10:4 @ Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and greet no one along the road.

nkjv@Luke:10:35 @ On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, "Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I come again, I will repay you.'

nkjv@Luke:10:36 @ So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?"

nkjv@Luke:10:37 @ And he said, "He who showed mercy on him." Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

nkjv@Luke:23:25 @ And he released to them the one they requested, who for rebellion and murder had been thrown into prison; but he delivered Jesus to their will.

nkjv@Luke:23:26 @ Now as they led Him away, they laid hold of a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross that he might bear it after Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:23:30 @ Then they will begin "to say to the mountains, "Fall on us!" and to the hills, "Cover us!"'

nkjv@Luke:23:31 @ For if they do these things in the green wood, what will be done in the dry?"

nkjv@Luke:23:33 @ And when they had come to the place called Calvary, there they crucified Him, and the criminals, one on the right hand and the other on the left.

nkjv@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood looking on. But even the rulers with them sneered, saying, "He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ, the chosen of God."

nkjv@Luke:23:38 @ And an inscription also was written over Him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@Luke:23:39 @ Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, "If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us."

nkjv@Luke:23:40 @ But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?

nkjv@Luke:23:41 @ And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong."

nkjv@Luke:23:47 @ So when the centurion saw what had happened, he glorified God, saying, "Certainly this was a righteous Man!"

nkjv@Luke:23:48 @ And the whole crowd who came together to that sight, seeing what had been done, beat their breasts and returned.

nkjv@Luke:23:51 @ He had not consented to their decision and deed. He was from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who himself was also waiting for the kingdom of God.

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

nkjv@Luke:23:54 @ That day was the Preparation, and the Sabbath drew near.

nkjv@Luke:23:56 @ Then they returned and prepared spices and fragrant oils. And they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment.

nkjv@Luke:24:1 @ Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

nkjv@Luke:24:2 @ But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

nkjv@Luke:24:5 @ Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?

nkjv@Luke:24:7 @ saying, "The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again."'

nkjv@Luke:24:15 @ So it was, while they conversed and reasoned, that Jesus Himself drew near and went with them.

nkjv@Luke:24:17 @ And He said to them, "What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?"

nkjv@Luke:24:18 @ Then the one whose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, "Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?"

nkjv@Luke:24:19 @ And He said to them, "What things?" So they said to Him, "The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a Prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

nkjv@Luke:24:20 @ and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death, and crucified Him.

nkjv@Luke:24:22 @ Yes, and certain women of our company, who arrived at the tomb early, astonished us.

nkjv@Luke:24:23 @ When they did not find His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive.

nkjv@Luke:24:25 @ Then He said to them, "O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

nkjv@Luke:24:27 @ And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.

nkjv@Luke:24:28 @ Then they drew near to the village where they were going, and He indicated that He would have gone farther.

nkjv@Luke:24:29 @ But they constrained Him, saying, "Abide with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent." And He went in to stay with them.

nkjv@Luke:24:32 @ And they said to one another, "Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?"

nkjv@Luke:24:34 @ saying, "The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!"

nkjv@Luke:24:35 @ And they told about the things that had happened on the road, and how He was known to them in the breaking of bread.

nkjv@Luke:24:39 @ Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have."

nkjv@Luke:24:42 @ So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.

nkjv@Luke:24:44 @ Then He said to them, "These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me."

nkjv@Luke:24:47 @ and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:24:49 @ Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."

nkjv@Luke:24:53 @ and were continually in the temple praising and blessing God. Amen.

nkjv@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

nkjv@John:1:18 @ No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

nkjv@John:1:19 @ Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"

nkjv@John:1:20 @ He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, "I am not the Christ."

nkjv@John:1:23 @ He said: "I am "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Make straight the way of the LORD,"' as the prophet Isaiah said."

nkjv@John:1:26 @ John answered them, saying, "I baptize with water, but there stands One among you whom you do not know.

nkjv@John:1:28 @ These things were done in Bethabara beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

nkjv@John:1:32 @ And John bore witness, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him.

nkjv@John:1:33 @ I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, "Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'

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

nkjv@John:1:40 @ One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

nkjv@John:1:41 @ He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which is translated, the Christ).

nkjv@John:1:42 @ And he brought him to Jesus. Now when Jesus looked at him, He said, "You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas" (which is translated, A Stone).

nkjv@John:1:45 @ Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote--Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

nkjv@John:1:49 @ Nathanael answered and said to Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"

nkjv@John:1:51 @ And He said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."

nkjv@John:2:1 @ On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

nkjv@John:2:4 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come."

nkjv@John:2:6 @ Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece.

nkjv@John:2:14 @ And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers doing business.

nkjv@John:2:15 @ When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers' money and overturned the tables.

nkjv@John:2:25 @ and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man.

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

nkjv@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."

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

nkjv@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

nkjv@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

nkjv@John:3:13 @ No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.

nkjv@John:3:14 @ And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

nkjv@John:3:16 @ For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

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

nkjv@John:3:18 @ "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

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

nkjv@John:3:20 @ For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.

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

nkjv@John:3:23 @ Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized.

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

nkjv@John:3:25 @ Then there arose a dispute between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purification.

nkjv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified--behold, He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!"

nkjv@John:3:32 @ And what He has seen and heard, that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony.

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

nkjv@John:3:35 @ The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand.

nkjv@John:3:36 @ He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."

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

nkjv@John:4:8 @ For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

nkjv@John:4:12 @ Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?"

nkjv@John:4:18 @ for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly."

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

nkjv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

nkjv@John:4:22 @ You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.

nkjv@John:4:27 @ And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why are You talking with her?"

nkjv@John:4:33 @ Therefore the disciples said to one another, "Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?"

nkjv@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, "There are still four months and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!

nkjv@John:4:37 @ For in this the saying is true: "One sows and another reaps.'

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

nkjv@John:4:45 @ So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also had gone to the feast.

nkjv@John:4:46 @ So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

nkjv@John:4:47 @ When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

nkjv@John:4:48 @ Then Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe."

nkjv@John:4:50 @ Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your son lives." So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

nkjv@John:4:51 @ And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, "Your son lives!"

nkjv@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." And he himself believed, and his whole household.

nkjv@John:4:54 @ This again is the second sign Jesus did when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

nkjv@John:5:6 @ When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, "Do you want to be made well?"

nkjv@John:5:13 @ But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place.

nkjv@John:5:14 @ Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you."

nkjv@John:5:16 @ For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath.

nkjv@John:5:18 @ Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.

nkjv@John:5:19 @ Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.

nkjv@John:5:20 @ For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

nkjv@John:5:21 @ For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will.

nkjv@John:5:22 @ For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son,

nkjv@John:5:23 @ that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

nkjv@John:5:25 @ Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.

nkjv@John:5:26 @ For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,

nkjv@John:5:27 @ and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.

nkjv@John:5:29 @ and come forth--those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.

nkjv@John:5:34 @ Yet I do not receive testimony from man, but I say these things that you may be saved.

nkjv@John:5:41 @ "I do not receive honor from men.

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

nkjv@John:5:45 @ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you--Moses, in whom you trust.

nkjv@John:6:2 @ Then a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His signs which He performed on those who were diseased.

nkjv@John:6:3 @ And Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat with His disciples.

nkjv@John:6:7 @ Philip answered Him, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may have a little."

nkjv@John:6:8 @ One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

nkjv@John:6:9 @ "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?"

nkjv@John:6:15 @ Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He departed again to the mountain by Himself alone.

nkjv@John:6:19 @ So when they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near the boat; and they were afraid.

nkjv@John:6:22 @ On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except that one which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone--

nkjv@John:6:25 @ And when they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, "Rabbi, when did You come here?"

nkjv@John:6:27 @ Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him."

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

nkjv@John:6:40 @ And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day."

nkjv@John:6:42 @ And they said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, "I have come down from heaven'?"

nkjv@John:6:43 @ Jesus therefore answered and said to them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.

nkjv@John:6:44 @ No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

nkjv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, "And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.

nkjv@John:6:46 @ Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God; He has seen the Father.

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

nkjv@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world."

nkjv@John:6:52 @ The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, "How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?"

nkjv@John:6:53 @ Then Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you.

nkjv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me.

nkjv@John:6:62 @ What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend where He was before?

nkjv@John:6:65 @ And He said, "Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father."

nkjv@John:6:68 @ But Simon Peter answered Him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.

nkjv@John:6:69 @ Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."

nkjv@John:6:70 @ Jesus answered them, "Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?"

nkjv@John:6:71 @ He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who would betray Him, being one of the twelve.

nkjv@John:7:4 @ For no one does anything in secret while he himself seeks to be known openly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world."

nkjv@John:7:10 @ But when His brothers had gone up, then He also went up to the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

nkjv@John:7:12 @ And there was much complaining among the people concerning Him. Some said, "He is good"; others said, "No, on the contrary, He deceives the people."

nkjv@John:7:13 @ However, no one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.

nkjv@John:7:17 @ If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.

nkjv@John:7:18 @ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.

nkjv@John:7:19 @ Did not Moses give you the law, yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill Me?"

nkjv@John:7:20 @ The people answered and said, "You have a demon. Who is seeking to kill You?"

nkjv@John:7:21 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "I did one work, and you all marvel.

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

nkjv@John:7:23 @ If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

nkjv@John:7:27 @ However, we know where this Man is from; but when the Christ comes, no one knows where He is from."

nkjv@John:7:30 @ Therefore they sought to take Him; but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

nkjv@John:7:31 @ And many of the people believed in Him, and said, "When the Christ comes, will He do more signs than these which this Man has done?"

nkjv@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things concerning Him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take Him.

nkjv@John:7:33 @ Then Jesus said to them, "I shall be with you a little while longer, and then I go to Him who sent Me.

nkjv@John:7:35 @ Then the Jews said among themselves, "Where does He intend to go that we shall not find Him? Does He intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

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

nkjv@John:7:39 @ But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

nkjv@John:7:43 @ So there was a division among the people because of Him.

nkjv@John:7:44 @ Now some of them wanted to take Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

nkjv@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus (he who came to Jesus by night, being one of them) said to them,

nkjv@John:7:53 @ And everyone went to his own house.

nkjv@John:8:5 @ Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what do You say?"

nkjv@John:8:6 @ This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear.

nkjv@John:8:7 @ So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first."

nkjv@John:8:8 @ And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground.

nkjv@John:8:9 @ Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

nkjv@John:8:10 @ When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, "Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?"

nkjv@John:8:11 @ She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more."

nkjv@John:8:15 @ You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.

nkjv@John:8:16 @ And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me.

nkjv@John:8:17 @ It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true.

nkjv@John:8:18 @ I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me."

nkjv@John:8:20 @ These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as He taught in the temple; and no one laid hands on Him, for His hour had not yet come.

nkjv@John:8:26 @ I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I heard from Him."

nkjv@John:8:28 @ Then Jesus said to them, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things.

nkjv@John:8:29 @ And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him."

nkjv@John:8:33 @ They answered Him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, "You will be made free'?"

nkjv@John:8:35 @ And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever.

nkjv@John:8:36 @ Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

nkjv@John:8:41 @ You do the deeds of your father." Then they said to Him, "We were not born of fornication; we have one Father--God."

nkjv@John:8:46 @ Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me?

nkjv@John:8:48 @ Then the Jews answered and said to Him, "Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?"

nkjv@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

nkjv@John:8:50 @ And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges.

nkjv@John:8:51 @ Most assuredly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he shall never see death."

nkjv@John:8:52 @ Then the Jews said to Him, "Now we know that You have a demon! Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and You say, "If anyone keeps My word he shall never taste death.'

nkjv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, "If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your God.

nkjv@John:8:59 @ Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

nkjv@John:9:4 @ I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.

nkjv@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

nkjv@John:9:6 @ When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

nkjv@John:9:15 @ Then the Pharisees also asked him again how he had received his sight. He said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see."

nkjv@John:9:16 @ Therefore some of the Pharisees said, "This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" And there was a division among them.

nkjv@John:9:18 @ But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight.

nkjv@John:9:19 @ And they asked them, saying, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"

nkjv@John:9:20 @ His parents answered them and said, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

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

nkjv@John:9:25 @ He answered and said, "Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see."

nkjv@John:9:31 @ Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.

nkjv@John:9:32 @ Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

nkjv@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said to him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"

nkjv@John:10:6 @ Jesus used this illustration, but they did not understand the things which He spoke to them.

nkjv@John:10:9 @ I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

nkjv@John:10:12 @ But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them.

nkjv@John:10:16 @ And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one shepherd.

nkjv@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from My Father."

nkjv@John:10:19 @ Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these sayings.

nkjv@John:10:20 @ And many of them said, "He has a demon and is mad. Why do you listen to Him?"

nkjv@John:10:21 @ Others said, "These are not the words of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

nkjv@John:10:22 @ Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter.

nkjv@John:10:23 @ And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon's porch.

nkjv@John:10:24 @ Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, "How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly."

nkjv@John:10:28 @ And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

nkjv@John:10:29 @ My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand.

nkjv@John:10:30 @ I and My Father are one."

nkjv@John:10:31 @ Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him.

nkjv@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, "Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?"

nkjv@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered Him, saying, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God."

nkjv@John:10:36 @ do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, "You are blaspheming,' because I said, "I am the Son of God'?

nkjv@John:10:40 @ And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stayed.

nkjv@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard that, He said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it."

nkjv@John:11:8 @ The disciples said to Him, "Rabbi, lately the Jews sought to stone You, and are You going there again?"

nkjv@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

nkjv@John:11:10 @ But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."

nkjv@John:11:19 @ And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

nkjv@John:11:20 @ Now Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house.

nkjv@John:11:24 @ Martha said to Him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."

nkjv@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

nkjv@John:11:27 @ She said to Him, "Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world."

nkjv@John:11:29 @ As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly and came to Him.

nkjv@John:11:38 @ Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it.

nkjv@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."

nkjv@John:11:41 @ Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

nkjv@John:11:48 @ If we let Him alone like this, everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation."

nkjv@John:11:49 @ And one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,

nkjv@John:11:50 @ nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish."

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

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

nkjv@John:11:53 @ Then, from that day on, they plotted to put Him to death.

nkjv@John:11:54 @ Therefore Jesus no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there remained with His disciples.

nkjv@John:11:56 @ Then they sought Jesus, and spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple, "What do you think--that He will not come to the feast?"

nkjv@John:11:57 @ Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if anyone knew where He was, he should report it, that they might seize Him.

nkjv@John:12:2 @ There they made Him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Him.

nkjv@John:12:4 @ But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who would betray Him, said,

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

nkjv@John:12:7 @ But Jesus said, "Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial.

nkjv@John:12:9 @ Now a great many of the Jews knew that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.

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

nkjv@John:12:14 @ Then Jesus, when He had found a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written:

nkjv@John:12:15 @ "Fear not, daughter of Zion; Behold, your King is coming, Sitting on a donkey's colt."

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

nkjv@John:12:18 @ For this reason the people also met Him, because they heard that He had done this sign.

nkjv@John:12:19 @ The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, "You see that you are accomplishing nothing. Look, the world has gone after Him!"

nkjv@John:12:20 @ Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast.

nkjv@John:12:23 @ But Jesus answered them, saying, "The hour has come that the Son of Man should be glorified.

nkjv@John:12:24 @ Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.

nkjv@John:12:26 @ If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.

nkjv@John:12:34 @ The people answered Him, "We have heard from the law that the Christ remains forever; and how can You say, "The Son of Man must be lifted up'? Who is this Son of Man?"

nkjv@John:12:35 @ Then Jesus said to them, "A little while longer the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you; he who walks in darkness does not know where he is going.

nkjv@John:12:36 @ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." These things Jesus spoke, and departed, and was hidden from them.

nkjv@John:12:37 @ But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him,

nkjv@John:12:42 @ Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue;

nkjv@John:12:47 @ And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.

nkjv@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak.

nkjv@John:13:2 @ And supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him,

nkjv@John:13:6 @ Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, "Lord, are You washing my feet?"

nkjv@John:13:9 @ Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!"

nkjv@John:13:10 @ Jesus said to him, "He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you."

nkjv@John:13:12 @ So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

nkjv@John:13:14 @ If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.

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

nkjv@John:13:18 @ "I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, "He who eats bread with Me has lifted up his heel against Me.'

nkjv@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said these things, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, "Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray Me."

nkjv@John:13:22 @ Then the disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom He spoke.

nkjv@John:13:23 @ Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved.

nkjv@John:13:24 @ Simon Peter therefore motioned to him to ask who it was of whom He spoke.

nkjv@John:13:25 @ Then, leaning back on Jesus' breast, he said to Him, "Lord, who is it?"

nkjv@John:13:26 @ Jesus answered, "It is he to whom I shall give a piece of bread when I have dipped it." And having dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

nkjv@John:13:28 @ But no one at the table knew for what reason He said this to him.

nkjv@John:13:29 @ For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus had said to him, "Buy those things we need for the feast," or that he should give something to the poor.

nkjv@John:13:31 @ So, when he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in Him.

nkjv@John:13:33 @ Little children, I shall be with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, "Where I am going, you cannot come,' so now I say to you.

nkjv@John:14:2 @ In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

nkjv@John:14:6 @ Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

nkjv@John:14:7 @ "If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him."

nkjv@John:14:9 @ Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, "Show us the Father'?

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

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

nkjv@John:14:19 @ "A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also.

nkjv@John:14:30 @ I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me.

nkjv@John:15:6 @ If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

nkjv@John:15:7 @ If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.

nkjv@John:15:12 @ This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

nkjv@John:15:13 @ Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.

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

nkjv@John:15:17 @ These things I command you, that you love one another.

nkjv@John:15:24 @ If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would have no sin; but now they have seen and also hated both Me and My Father.

nkjv@John:18:15 @ And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.

nkjv@John:18:17 @ Then the servant girl who kept the door said to Peter, "You are not also one of this Man's disciples, are you?" He said, "I am not."

nkjv@John:18:22 @ And when He had said these things, one of the officers who stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, "Do You answer the high priest like that?"

nkjv@John:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. Therefore they said to him, "You are not also one of His disciples, are you?" He denied it and said, "I am not!"

nkjv@John:18:26 @ One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of him whose ear Peter cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with Him?"

nkjv@John:18:29 @ Pilate then went out to them and said, "What accusation do you bring against this Man?"

nkjv@John:18:31 @ Then Pilate said to them, "You take Him and judge Him according to your law." Therefore the Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,"

nkjv@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered him, "Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?"

nkjv@John:18:35 @ Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What have You done?"

nkjv@John:18:37 @ Pilate therefore said to Him, "Are You a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice."

nkjv@John:18:39 @ "But you have a custom that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Do you therefore want me to release to you the King of the Jews?"

nkjv@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head, and they put on Him a purple robe.

nkjv@John:19:7 @ The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and according to our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God."

nkjv@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered, "You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered Me to you has the greater sin."

nkjv@John:19:12 @ From then on Pilate sought to release Him, but the Jews cried out, saying, "If you let this Man go, you are not Caesar's friend. Whoever makes himself a king speaks against Caesar."

nkjv@John:19:14 @ Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, and about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

nkjv@John:19:18 @ where they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the center.

nkjv@John:19:19 @ Now Pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

nkjv@John:19:23 @ Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.

nkjv@John:19:24 @ They said therefore among themselves, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says: "They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots." Therefore the soldiers did these things.

nkjv@John:19:26 @ When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, "Woman, behold your son!"

nkjv@John:19:29 @ Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth.

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

nkjv@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

nkjv@John:19:35 @ And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you may believe.

nkjv@John:19:37 @ And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom they pierced."

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

nkjv@John:19:41 @ Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.

nkjv@John:19:42 @ So there they laid Jesus, because of the Jews' Preparation Day, for the tomb was nearby.

nkjv@John:20:1 @ Now the first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

nkjv@John:20:2 @ Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him."

nkjv@John:20:6 @ Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; and he saw the linen cloths lying there,

nkjv@John:20:12 @ And she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

nkjv@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Mary!" She turned and said to Him, "Rabboni!" (which is to say, Teacher).

nkjv@John:20:22 @ And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@John:21:6 @ And He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast, and now they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish.

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

nkjv@John:21:9 @ Then, as soon as they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread.

nkjv@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, "Come and eat breakfast." Yet none of the disciples dared ask Him, "Who are You?"--knowing that it was the Lord.

nkjv@John:21:15 @ So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Feed My lambs."

nkjv@John:21:16 @ He said to him again a second time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Tend My sheep."

nkjv@John:21:17 @ He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, "Do you love Me?" And he said to Him, "Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You." Jesus said to him, "Feed My sheep.

nkjv@John:21:20 @ Then Peter, turning around, saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also had leaned on His breast at the supper, and said, "Lord, who is the one who betrays You?"

nkjv@John:21:23 @ Then this saying went out among the brethren that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, "If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you?"

nkjv@John:21:24 @ This is the disciple who testifies of these things, and wrote these things; and we know that his testimony is true.

nkjv@John:21:25 @ And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.

nkjv@Acts:1:7 @ And He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority.

nkjv@Acts:2:3 @ Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them.

nkjv@Acts:2:4 @ And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

nkjv@Acts:2:5 @ And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.

nkjv@Acts:2:6 @ And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language.

nkjv@Acts:2:27 @ For You will not leave my soul in Hades, Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.

nkjv@Acts:2:30 @ Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his body, according to the flesh, He would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne,

nkjv@Acts:2:31 @ he, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that His soul was not left in Hades, nor did His flesh see corruption.

nkjv@Acts:4:2 @ being greatly disturbed that they taught the people and preached in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

nkjv@Acts:4:16 @ saying, "What shall we do to these men? For, indeed, that a notable miracle has been done through them is evident to all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.

nkjv@Acts:4:17 @ But so that it spreads no further among the people, let us severely threaten them, that from now on they speak to no man in this name."

nkjv@Acts:4:21 @ So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way of punishing them, because of the people, since they all glorified God for what had been done.

nkjv@Acts:4:22 @ For the man was over forty years old on whom this miracle of healing had been performed.

nkjv@Acts:4:23 @ And being let go, they went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.

nkjv@Acts:4:24 @ So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: "Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them,

nkjv@Acts:4:34 @ Nor was there anyone among them who lacked; for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,

nkjv@Acts:4:36 @ And Joses, who was also named Barnabas by the apostles (which is translated Son of Encouragement), a Levite of the country of Cyprus,

nkjv@Acts:5:5 @ Then Ananias, hearing these words, fell down and breathed his last. So great fear came upon all those who heard these things.

nkjv@Acts:5:11 @ So great fear came upon all the church and upon all who heard these things.

nkjv@Acts:5:12 @ And through the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon's Porch.

nkjv@Acts:5:13 @ Yet none of the rest dared join them, but the people esteemed them highly.

nkjv@Acts:5:15 @ so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them.

nkjv@Acts:5:23 @ saying, "Indeed we found the prison shut securely, and the guards standing outside before the doors; but when we opened them, we found no one inside!"

nkjv@Acts:5:34 @ Then one in the council stood up, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law held in respect by all the people, and commanded them to put the apostles outside for a little while.

nkjv@Acts:5:38 @ And now I say to you, keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this plan or this work is of men, it will come to nothing;

nkjv@Acts:6:6 @ whom they set before the apostles; and when they had prayed, they laid hands on them.

nkjv@Acts:6:8 @ And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and signs among the people.

nkjv@Acts:6:12 @ And they stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes; and they came upon him, seized him, and brought him to the council.

nkjv@Acts:7:5 @ And God gave him no inheritance in it, not even enough to set his foot on. But even when Abraham had no child, He promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him.

nkjv@Acts:7:6 @ But God spoke in this way: that his descendants would dwell in a foreign land, and that they would bring them into bondage and oppress them four hundred years.

nkjv@Acts:7:7 @ "And the nation to whom they will be in bondage I will judge,' said God, "and after that they shall come out and serve Me in this place.'

nkjv@Acts:9:20 @ Immediately he preached the Christ in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God.

nkjv@Acts:9:21 @ Then all who heard were amazed, and said, "Is this not he who destroyed those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and has come here for that purpose, so that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?"

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

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

nkjv@Acts:10:9 @ The next day, as they went on their journey and drew near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour.

nkjv@Acts:10:14 @ But Peter said, "Not so, Lord! For I have never eaten anything common or unclean."

nkjv@Acts:10:15 @ And a voice spoke to him again the second time, "What God has cleansed you must not call common."

nkjv@Acts:10:16 @ This was done three times. And the object was taken up into heaven again.

nkjv@Acts:10:17 @ Now while Peter wondered within himself what this vision which he had seen meant, behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate.

nkjv@Acts:10:18 @ And they called and asked whether Simon, whose surname was Peter, was lodging there.

nkjv@Acts:10:19 @ While Peter thought about the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men are seeking you.

nkjv@Acts:10:21 @ Then Peter went down to the men who had been sent to him from Cornelius, and said, "Yes, I am he whom you seek. For what reason have you come?"

nkjv@Acts:10:22 @ And they said, "Cornelius the centurion, a just man, one who fears God and has a good reputation among all the nation of the Jews, was divinely instructed by a holy angel to summon you to his house, and to hear words from you."

nkjv@Acts:10:23 @ Then he invited them in and lodged them. On the next day Peter went away with them, and some brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

nkjv@Acts:10:28 @ Then he said to them, "You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

nkjv@Acts:10:29 @ Therefore I came without objection as soon as I was sent for. I ask, then, for what reason have you sent for me?"

nkjv@Acts:10:32 @ Send therefore to Joppa and call Simon here, whose surname is Peter. He is lodging in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea. When he comes, he will speak to you.'

nkjv@Acts:10:33 @ So I sent to you immediately, and you have done well to come. Now therefore, we are all present before God, to hear all the things commanded you by God."

nkjv@Acts:10:35 @ But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.

nkjv@Acts:10:39 @ And we are witnesses of all things which He did both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed by hanging on a tree.

nkjv@Acts:10:40 @ Him God raised up on the third day, and showed Him openly,

nkjv@Acts:10:43 @ To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins."

nkjv@Acts:10:44 @ While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.

nkjv@Acts:10:45 @ And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also.

nkjv@Acts:10:46 @ For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered,

nkjv@Acts:10:47 @ "Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?"

nkjv@Acts:11:2 @ And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him,

nkjv@Acts:11:5 @ "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came to me.

nkjv@Acts:11:6 @ When I observed it intently and considered, I saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.

nkjv@Acts:11:8 @ But I said, "Not so, Lord! For nothing common or unclean has at any time entered my mouth.'

nkjv@Acts:11:9 @ But the voice answered me again from heaven, "What God has cleansed you must not call common.'

nkjv@Acts:11:10 @ Now this was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.

nkjv@Acts:11:13 @ And he told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him, "Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon whose surname is Peter,

nkjv@Acts:11:15 @ And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning.

nkjv@Acts:11:17 @ If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?"

nkjv@Acts:11:19 @ Now those who were scattered after the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to no one but the Jews only.

nkjv@Acts:11:23 @ When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord.

nkjv@Acts:11:28 @ Then one of them, named Agabus, stood up and showed by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine throughout all the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius Caesar.

nkjv@Acts:12:4 @ So when he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him before the people after Passover.

nkjv@Acts:12:5 @ Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church.

nkjv@Acts:12:6 @ And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were keeping the prison.

nkjv@Acts:12:7 @ Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, "Arise quickly!" And his chains fell off his hands.

nkjv@Acts:12:8 @ Then the angel said to him, "Gird yourself and tie on your sandals"; and so he did. And he said to him, "Put on your garment and follow me."

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

nkjv@Acts:12:10 @ When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.

nkjv@Acts:12:11 @ And when Peter had come to himself, he said, "Now I know for certain that the Lord has sent His angel, and has delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all the expectation of the Jewish people."

nkjv@Acts:12:12 @ So, when he had considered this, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together praying.

nkjv@Acts:12:16 @ Now Peter continued knocking; and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astonished.

nkjv@Acts:12:17 @ But motioning to them with his hand to keep silent, he declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Go, tell these things to James and to the brethren." And he departed and went to another place.

nkjv@Acts:12:18 @ Then, as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.

nkjv@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod had been very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; but they came to him with one accord, and having made Blastus the king's personal aide their friend, they asked for peace, because their country was supplied with food by the king's country.

nkjv@Acts:12:21 @ So on a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat on his throne and gave an oration to them.

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

nkjv@Acts:13:3 @ Then, having fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, they sent them away.

nkjv@Acts:13:6 @ Now when they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew whose name was Bar-Jesus,

nkjv@Acts:13:7 @ who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. This man called for Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God.

nkjv@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the sorcerer (for so his name is translated) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

nkjv@Acts:13:10 @ and said, "O full of all deceit and all fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease perverting the straight ways of the Lord?

nkjv@Acts:13:11 @ And now, indeed, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a time." And immediately a dark mist fell on him, and he went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.

nkjv@Acts:13:12 @ Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what had been done, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.

nkjv@Acts:13:14 @ But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and sat down.

nkjv@Acts:13:15 @ And after the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, "Men and brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say on."

nkjv@Acts:13:16 @ Then Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said, "Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen:

nkjv@Acts:13:19 @ And when He had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, He distributed their land to them by allotment.

nkjv@Acts:13:21 @ And afterward they asked for a king; so God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.

nkjv@Acts:13:22 @ And when He had removed him, He raised up for them David as king, to whom also He gave testimony and said, "I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My own heart, who will do all My will.'

nkjv@Acts:13:25 @ And as John was finishing his course, he said, "Who do you think I am? I am not He. But behold, there comes One after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.'

nkjv@Acts:13:26 @ "Men and brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, to you the word of this salvation has been sent.

nkjv@Acts:13:27 @ For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they did not know Him, nor even the voices of the Prophets which are read every Sabbath, have fulfilled them in condemning Him.

nkjv@Acts:13:29 @ Now when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning Him, they took Him down from the tree and laid Him in a tomb.

nkjv@Acts:13:33 @ God has fulfilled this for us their children, in that He has raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second Psalm: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You.'

nkjv@Acts:13:34 @ And that He raised Him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, He has spoken thus: "I will give you the sure mercies of David.'

nkjv@Acts:13:35 @ Therefore He also says in another Psalm: "You will not allow Your Holy One to see corruption.'

nkjv@Acts:13:36 @ "For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and saw corruption;

nkjv@Acts:13:37 @ but He whom God raised up saw no corruption.

nkjv@Acts:13:39 @ and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.

nkjv@Acts:13:40 @ Beware therefore, lest what has been spoken in the prophets come upon you:

nkjv@Acts:13:41 @ "Behold, you despisers, Marvel and perish! For I work a work in your days, A work which you will by no means believe, Though one were to declare it to you."'

nkjv@Acts:13:43 @ Now when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

nkjv@Acts:13:44 @ On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.

nkjv@Acts:13:45 @ But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy; and contradicting and blaspheming, they opposed the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:13:47 @ For so the Lord has commanded us: "I have set you as a light to the Gentiles, That you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth."'

nkjv@Acts:13:49 @ And the word of the Lord was being spread throughout all the region.

nkjv@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews stirred up the devout and prominent women and the chief men of the city, raised up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their region.

nkjv@Acts:13:51 @ But they shook off the dust from their feet against them, and came to Iconium.

nkjv@Acts:14:1 @ Now it happened in Iconium that they went together to the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of the Jews and of the Greeks believed.

nkjv@Acts:14:2 @ But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brethren.

nkjv@Acts:14:3 @ Therefore they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who was bearing witness to the word of His grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

nkjv@Acts:14:5 @ And when a violent attempt was made by both the Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to abuse and stone them,

nkjv@Acts:14:6 @ they became aware of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding region.

nkjv@Acts:14:10 @ said with a loud voice, "Stand up straight on your feet!" And he leaped and walked.

nkjv@Acts:14:11 @ Now when the people saw what Paul had done, they raised their voices, saying in the Lycaonian language, "The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!"

nkjv@Acts:14:13 @ Then the priest of Zeus, whose temple was in front of their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, intending to sacrifice with the multitudes.

nkjv@Acts:14:14 @ But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard this, they tore their clothes and ran in among the multitude, crying out

nkjv@Acts:14:16 @ who in bygone generations allowed all nations to walk in their own ways.

nkjv@Acts:14:17 @ Nevertheless He did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, gave us rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

nkjv@Acts:14:19 @ Then Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there; and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

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

nkjv@Acts:14:22 @ strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying, "We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Acts:14:27 @ Now when they had come and gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done with them, and that He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Acts:14:28 @ So they stayed there a long time with the disciples.

nkjv@Acts:15:2 @ Therefore, when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and dispute with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them should go up to Jerusalem, to the apostles and elders, about this question.

nkjv@Acts:15:3 @ So, being sent on their way by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, describing the conversion of the Gentiles; and they caused great joy to all the brethren.

nkjv@Acts:15:4 @ And when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the church and the apostles and the elders; and they reported all things that God had done with them.

nkjv@Acts:15:6 @ Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter.

nkjv@Acts:15:7 @ And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: "Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe.

nkjv@Acts:15:9 @ and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

nkjv@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

nkjv@Acts:15:12 @ Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles.

nkjv@Acts:15:14 @ Simon has declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles to take out of them a people for His name.

nkjv@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God,

nkjv@Acts:15:21 @ For Moses has had throughout many generations those who preach him in every city, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath."

nkjv@Acts:15:22 @ Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas, namely, Judas who was also named Barsabas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren.

nkjv@Acts:15:25 @ it seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

nkjv@Acts:15:28 @ For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:

nkjv@Acts:15:38 @ But Paul insisted that they should not take with them the one who had departed from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work.

nkjv@Acts:15:39 @ Then the contention became so sharp that they parted from one another. And so Barnabas took Mark and sailed to Cyprus;

nkjv@Acts:16:1 @ Then he came to Derbe and Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a certain Jewish woman who believed, but his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:2 @ He was well spoken of by the brethren who were at Lystra and Iconium.

nkjv@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted to have him go on with him. And he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in that region, for they all knew that his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:6 @ Now when they had gone through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to preach the word in Asia.

nkjv@Acts:16:9 @ And a vision appeared to Paul in the night. A man of Macedonia stood and pleaded with him, saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us."

nkjv@Acts:16:10 @ Now after he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them.

nkjv@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philippi, which is the foremost city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city for some days.

nkjv@Acts:16:13 @ And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there.

nkjv@Acts:16:16 @ Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling.

nkjv@Acts:16:17 @ This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, "These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation."

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

nkjv@Acts:16:23 @ And when they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, commanding the jailer to keep them securely.

nkjv@Acts:16:24 @ Having received such a charge, he put them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.

nkjv@Acts:16:25 @ But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.

nkjv@Acts:16:26 @ Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were loosed.

nkjv@Acts:16:27 @ And the keeper of the prison, awaking from sleep and seeing the prison doors open, supposing the prisoners had fled, drew his sword and was about to kill himself.

nkjv@Acts:16:31 @ So they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household."

nkjv@Acts:16:36 @ So the keeper of the prison reported these words to Paul, saying, "The magistrates have sent to let you go. Now therefore depart, and go in peace."

nkjv@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us openly, uncondemned Romans, and have thrown us into prison. And now do they put us out secretly? No indeed! Let them come themselves and get us out."

nkjv@Acts:16:40 @ So they went out of the prison and entered the house of Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they encouraged them and departed.

nkjv@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:17:2 @ Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

nkjv@Acts:17:3 @ explaining and demonstrating that the Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, "This Jesus whom I preach to you is the Christ."

nkjv@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews who were not persuaded, becoming envious, took some of the evil men from the marketplace, and gathering a mob, set all the city in an uproar and attacked the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.

nkjv@Acts:17:6 @ But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some brethren to the rulers of the city, crying out, "These who have turned the world upside down have come here too.

nkjv@Acts:17:7 @ Jason has harbored them, and these are all acting contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying there is another king--Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:17:9 @ So when they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

nkjv@Acts:17:11 @ These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.

nkjv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews from Thessalonica learned that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there also and stirred up the crowds.

nkjv@Acts:17:15 @ So those who conducted Paul brought him to Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him with all speed, they departed.

nkjv@Acts:17:17 @ Therefore he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and with the Gentile worshipers, and in the marketplace daily with those who happened to be there.

nkjv@Acts:17:18 @ Then certain Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encountered him. And some said, "What does this babbler want to say?" Others said, "He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign gods," because he preached to them Jesus and the resurrection.

nkjv@Acts:17:23 @ for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you:

nkjv@Acts:17:26 @ And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings,

nkjv@Acts:17:27 @ so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us;

nkjv@Acts:17:29 @ Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art and man's devising.

nkjv@Acts:17:31 @ because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead."

nkjv@Acts:17:32 @ And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked, while others said, "We will hear you again on this matter."

nkjv@Acts:17:33 @ So Paul departed from among them.

nkjv@Acts:17:34 @ However, some men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

nkjv@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla (because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome); and he came to them.

nkjv@Acts:18:3 @ So, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked; for by occupation they were tentmakers.

nkjv@Acts:18:4 @ And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.

nkjv@Acts:18:5 @ When Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.

nkjv@Acts:18:6 @ But when they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook his garments and said to them, "Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."

nkjv@Acts:18:7 @ And he departed from there and entered the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

nkjv@Acts:18:8 @ Then Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his household. And many of the Corinthians, hearing, believed and were baptized.

nkjv@Acts:18:9 @ Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent;

nkjv@Acts:18:10 @ for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city."

nkjv@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

nkjv@Acts:18:12 @ When Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him to the judgment seat,

nkjv@Acts:18:13 @ saying, "This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law."

nkjv@Acts:18:14 @ And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or wicked crimes, O Jews, there would be reason why I should bear with you.

nkjv@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a question of words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves; for I do not want to be a judge of such matters."

nkjv@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left them there; but he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:18:20 @ When they asked him to stay a longer time with them, he did not consent,

nkjv@Acts:18:22 @ And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up and greeted the church, he went down to Antioch.

nkjv@Acts:18:23 @ After he had spent some time there, he departed and went over the region of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

nkjv@Acts:18:25 @ This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things of the Lord, though he knew only the baptism of John.

nkjv@Acts:19:1 @ And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples

nkjv@Acts:19:4 @ Then Paul said, "John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:19:6 @ And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

nkjv@Acts:19:8 @ And he went into the synagogue and spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading concerning the things of the kingdom of God.

nkjv@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were hardened and did not believe, but spoke evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and withdrew the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.

nkjv@Acts:19:10 @ And this continued for two years, so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

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

nkjv@Acts:19:13 @ Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches."

nkjv@Acts:19:14 @ Also there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so.

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

nkjv@Acts:19:17 @ This became known both to all Jews and Greeks dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

nkjv@Acts:19:18 @ And many who had believed came confessing and telling their deeds.

nkjv@Acts:19:21 @ When these things were accomplished, Paul purposed in the Spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

nkjv@Acts:19:22 @ So he sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, but he himself stayed in Asia for a time.

nkjv@Acts:19:23 @ And about that time there arose a great commotion about the Way.

nkjv@Acts:19:25 @ He called them together with the workers of similar occupation, and said: "Men, you know that we have our prosperity by this trade.

nkjv@Acts:19:26 @ Moreover you see and hear that not only at Ephesus, but throughout almost all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are not gods which are made with hands.

nkjv@Acts:19:27 @ So not only is this trade of ours in danger of falling into disrepute, but also the temple of the great goddess Diana may be despised and her magnificence destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worship."

nkjv@Acts:19:29 @ So the whole city was filled with confusion, and rushed into the theater with one accord, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul's travel companions.

nkjv@Acts:19:32 @ Some therefore cried one thing and some another, for the assembly was confused, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

nkjv@Acts:19:33 @ And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander motioned with his hand, and wanted to make his defense to the people.

nkjv@Acts:19:34 @ But when they found out that he was a Jew, all with one voice cried out for about two hours, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians!"

nkjv@Acts:19:38 @ Therefore, if Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a case against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them bring charges against one another.

nkjv@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger of being called in question for today's uproar, there being no reason which we may give to account for this disorderly gathering."

nkjv@Acts:20:1 @ After the uproar had ceased, Paul called the disciples to himself, embraced them, and departed to go to Macedonia.

nkjv@Acts:20:2 @ Now when he had gone over that region and encouraged them with many words, he came to Greece

nkjv@Acts:20:3 @ and stayed three months. And when the Jews plotted against him as he was about to sail to Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia.

nkjv@Acts:20:4 @ And Sopater of Berea accompanied him to Asia--also Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.

nkjv@Acts:20:7 @ Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.

nkjv@Acts:20:9 @ And in a window sat a certain young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep. He was overcome by sleep; and as Paul continued speaking, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.

nkjv@Acts:20:10 @ But Paul went down, fell on him, and embracing him said, "Do not trouble yourselves, for his life is in him."

nkjv@Acts:20:11 @ Now when he had come up, had broken bread and eaten, and talked a long while, even till daybreak, he departed.

nkjv@Acts:20:13 @ Then we went ahead to the ship and sailed to Assos, there intending to take Paul on board; for so he had given orders, intending himself to go on foot.

nkjv@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mitylene.

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

nkjv@Acts:20:18 @ And when they had come to him, he said to them: "You know, from the first day that I came to Asia, in what manner I always lived among you,

nkjv@Acts:20:23 @ except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me.

nkjv@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

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

nkjv@Acts:20:28 @ Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.

nkjv@Acts:20:29 @ For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.

nkjv@Acts:20:30 @ Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.

nkjv@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

nkjv@Acts:20:32 @ "So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

nkjv@Acts:20:33 @ I have coveted no one's silver or gold or apparel.

nkjv@Acts:20:37 @ Then they all wept freely, and fell on Paul's neck and kissed him,

nkjv@Acts:21:3 @ When we had sighted Cyprus, we passed it on the left, sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her cargo.

nkjv@Acts:21:5 @ When we had come to the end of those days, we departed and went on our way; and they all accompanied us, with wives and children, till we were out of the city. And we knelt down on the shore and prayed.

nkjv@Acts:21:6 @ When we had taken our leave of one another, we boarded the ship, and they returned home.

nkjv@Acts:21:7 @ And when we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, greeted the brethren, and stayed with them one day.

nkjv@Acts:21:8 @ On the next day we who were Paul's companions departed and came to Caesarea, and entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.

nkjv@Acts:21:13 @ Then Paul answered, "What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:21:14 @ So when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, "The will of the Lord be done."

nkjv@Acts:21:16 @ Also some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us and brought with them a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we were to lodge.

nkjv@Acts:21:18 @ On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.

nkjv@Acts:21:19 @ When he had greeted them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

nkjv@Acts:21:21 @ but they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs.

nkjv@Acts:21:24 @ Take them and be purified with them, and pay their expenses so that they may shave their heads, and that all may know that those things of which they were informed concerning you are nothing, but that you yourself also walk orderly and keep the law.

nkjv@Acts:21:25 @ But concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written and decided that they should observe no such thing, except that they should keep themselves from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality."

nkjv@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul took the men, and the next day, having been purified with them, entered the temple to announce the expiration of the days of purification, at which time an offering should be made for each one of them.

nkjv@Acts:21:27 @ Now when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the temple, stirred up the whole crowd and laid hands on him,

nkjv@Acts:21:31 @ Now as they were seeking to kill him, news came to the commander of the garrison that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

nkjv@Acts:21:32 @ He immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them. And when they saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.

nkjv@Acts:21:33 @ Then the commander came near and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and he asked who he was and what he had done.

nkjv@Acts:21:34 @ And some among the multitude cried one thing and some another. So when he could not ascertain the truth because of the tumult, he commanded him to be taken into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:21:38 @ Are you not the Egyptian who some time ago stirred up a rebellion and led the four thousand assassins out into the wilderness?"

nkjv@Acts:21:40 @ So when he had given him permission, Paul stood on the stairs and motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, saying,

nkjv@Acts:22:4 @ I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women,

nkjv@Acts:22:6 @ "Now it happened, as I journeyed and came near Damascus at about noon, suddenly a great light from heaven shone around me.

nkjv@Acts:22:12 @ "Then a certain Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good testimony with all the Jews who dwelt there,

nkjv@Acts:22:14 @ Then he said, "The God of our fathers has chosen you that you should know His will, and see the Just One, and hear the voice of His mouth.

nkjv@Acts:22:16 @ And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.'

nkjv@Acts:22:18 @ and saw Him saying to me, "Make haste and get out of Jerusalem quickly, for they will not receive your testimony concerning Me.'

nkjv@Acts:22:19 @ So I said, "Lord, they know that in every synagogue I imprisoned and beat those who believe on You.

nkjv@Acts:22:20 @ And when the blood of Your martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by consenting to his death, and guarding the clothes of those who were killing him.'

nkjv@Acts:22:25 @ And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion who stood by, "Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and uncondemned?"

nkjv@Acts:22:26 @ When the centurion heard that, he went and told the commander, saying, "Take care what you do, for this man is a Roman."

nkjv@Acts:22:30 @ The next day, because he wanted to know for certain why he was accused by the Jews, he released him from his bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down and set him before them.

nkjv@Acts:23:1 @ Then Paul, looking earnestly at the council, said, "Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day."

nkjv@Acts:23:2 @ And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth.

nkjv@Acts:23:3 @ Then Paul said to him, "God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! For you sit to judge me according to the law, and do you command me to be struck contrary to the law?"

nkjv@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, "Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee; concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am being judged!"

nkjv@Acts:23:7 @ And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the assembly was divided.

nkjv@Acts:23:8 @ For Sadducees say that there is no resurrection--and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.

nkjv@Acts:23:10 @ Now when there arose a great dissension, the commander, fearing lest Paul might be pulled to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:23:13 @ Now there were more than forty who had formed this conspiracy.

nkjv@Acts:23:15 @ Now you, therefore, together with the council, suggest to the commander that he be brought down to you tomorrow, as though you were going to make further inquiries concerning him; but we are ready to kill him before he comes near."

nkjv@Acts:23:16 @ So when Paul's sister's son heard of their ambush, he went and entered the barracks and told Paul.

nkjv@Acts:23:17 @ Then Paul called one of the centurions to him and said, "Take this young man to the commander, for he has something to tell him."

nkjv@Acts:23:18 @ So he took him and brought him to the commander and said, "Paul the prisoner called me to him and asked me to bring this young man to you. He has something to say to you."

nkjv@Acts:23:22 @ So the commander let the young man depart, and commanded him, "Tell no one that you have revealed these things to me."

nkjv@Acts:23:23 @ And he called for two centurions, saying, "Prepare two hundred soldiers, seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen to go to Caesarea at the third hour of the night;

nkjv@Acts:23:24 @ and provide mounts to set Paul on, and bring him safely to Felix the governor."

nkjv@Acts:23:28 @ And when I wanted to know the reason they accused him, I brought him before their council.

nkjv@Acts:23:29 @ I found out that he was accused concerning questions of their law, but had nothing charged against him deserving of death or chains.

nkjv@Acts:23:32 @ The next day they left the horsemen to go on with him, and returned to the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:24:2 @ And when he was called upon, Tertullus began his accusation, saying: "Seeing that through you we enjoy great peace, and prosperity is being brought to this nation by your foresight,

nkjv@Acts:24:5 @ For we have found this man a plague, a creator of dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.

nkjv@Acts:24:10 @ Then Paul, after the governor had nodded to him to speak, answered: "Inasmuch as I know that you have been for many years a judge of this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself,

nkjv@Acts:24:12 @ And they neither found me in the temple disputing with anyone nor inciting the crowd, either in the synagogues or in the city.

nkjv@Acts:24:14 @ But this I confess to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect, so I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the Law and in the Prophets.

nkjv@Acts:24:15 @ I have hope in God, which they themselves also accept, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust.

nkjv@Acts:24:16 @ This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense toward God and men.

nkjv@Acts:24:17 @ "Now after many years I came to bring alms and offerings to my nation,

nkjv@Acts:24:20 @ Or else let those who are here themselves say if they found any wrongdoing in me while I stood before the council,

nkjv@Acts:24:21 @ unless it is for this one statement which I cried out, standing among them, "Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged by you this day."'

nkjv@Acts:24:22 @ But when Felix heard these things, having more accurate knowledge of the Way, he adjourned the proceedings and said, "When Lysias the commander comes down, I will make a decision on your case."

nkjv@Acts:24:23 @ So he commanded the centurion to keep Paul and to let him have liberty, and told him not to forbid any of his friends to provide for or visit him.

nkjv@Acts:24:24 @ And after some days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, he sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.

nkjv@Acts:24:25 @ Now as he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid and answered, "Go away for now; when I have a convenient time I will call for you."

nkjv@Acts:24:26 @ Meanwhile he also hoped that money would be given him by Paul, that he might release him. Therefore he sent for him more often and conversed with him.

nkjv@Acts:25:2 @ Then the high priest and the chief men of the Jews informed him against Paul; and they petitioned him,

nkjv@Acts:25:3 @ asking a favor against him, that he would summon him to Jerusalem--while they lay in ambush along the road to kill him.

nkjv@Acts:25:5 @ "Therefore," he said, "let those who have authority among you go down with me and accuse this man, to see if there is any fault in him."

nkjv@Acts:25:6 @ And when he had remained among them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea. And the next day, sitting on the judgment seat, he commanded Paul to be brought.

nkjv@Acts:25:9 @ But Festus, wanting to do the Jews a favor, answered Paul and said, "Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and there be judged before me concerning these things?"

nkjv@Acts:25:10 @ So Paul said, "I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as you very well know.

nkjv@Acts:25:11 @ For if I am an offender, or have committed anything deserving of death, I do not object to dying; but if there is nothing in these things of which these men accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar."

nkjv@Acts:25:12 @ Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, "You have appealed to Caesar? To Caesar you shall go!"

nkjv@Acts:25:14 @ When they had been there many days, Festus laid Paul's case before the king, saying: "There is a certain man left a prisoner by Felix,

nkjv@Acts:25:16 @ To them I answered, "It is not the custom of the Romans to deliver any man to destruction before the accused meets the accusers face to face, and has opportunity to answer for himself concerning the charge against him.'

nkjv@Acts:25:17 @ Therefore when they had come together, without any delay, the next day I sat on the judgment seat and commanded the man to be brought in.

nkjv@Acts:25:18 @ When the accusers stood up, they brought no accusation against him of such things as I supposed,

nkjv@Acts:25:19 @ but had some questions against him about their own religion and about a certain Jesus, who had died, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

nkjv@Acts:25:20 @ And because I was uncertain of such questions, I asked whether he was willing to go to Jerusalem and there be judged concerning these matters.

nkjv@Acts:25:21 @ But when Paul appealed to be reserved for the decision of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I could send him to Caesar."

nkjv@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said: "King Agrippa and all the men who are here present with us, you see this man about whom the whole assembly of the Jews petitioned me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying out that he was not fit to live any longer.

nkjv@Acts:25:26 @ I have nothing certain to write to my lord concerning him. Therefore I have brought him out before you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the examination has taken place I may have something to write.

nkjv@Acts:25:27 @ For it seems to me unreasonable to send a prisoner and not to specify the charges against him."

nkjv@Acts:26:2 @ "I think myself happy, King Agrippa, because today I shall answer for myself before you concerning all the things of which I am accused by the Jews,

nkjv@Acts:26:3 @ especially because you are expert in all customs and questions which have to do with the Jews. Therefore I beg you to hear me patiently.

nkjv@Acts:26:4 @ "My manner of life from my youth, which was spent from the beginning among my own nation at Jerusalem, all the Jews know.

nkjv@Acts:26:5 @ They knew me from the first, if they were willing to testify, that according to the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

nkjv@Acts:26:9 @ "Indeed, I myself thought I must do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

nkjv@Acts:26:10 @ This I also did in Jerusalem, and many of the saints I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I cast my vote against them.

nkjv@Acts:26:12 @ "While thus occupied, as I journeyed to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,

nkjv@Acts:26:13 @ at midday, O king, along the road I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who journeyed with me.

nkjv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you.

nkjv@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.'

nkjv@Acts:26:19 @ "Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,

nkjv@Acts:26:20 @ but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance.

nkjv@Acts:26:21 @ For these reasons the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me.

nkjv@Acts:26:25 @ But he said, "I am not mad, most noble Festus, but speak the words of truth and reason.

nkjv@Acts:26:26 @ For the king, before whom I also speak freely, knows these things; for I am convinced that none of these things escapes his attention, since this thing was not done in a corner.

nkjv@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, "I would to God that not only you, but also all who hear me today, might become both almost and altogether such as I am, except for these chains."

nkjv@Acts:26:31 @ and when they had gone aside, they talked among themselves, saying, "This man is doing nothing deserving of death or chains."

nkjv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decided that we should sail to Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to one named Julius, a centurion of the Augustan Regiment.

nkjv@Acts:27:2 @ So, entering a ship of Adramyttium, we put to sea, meaning to sail along the coasts of Asia. Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, was with us.

nkjv@Acts:27:3 @ And the next day we landed at Sidon. And Julius treated Paul kindly and gave him liberty to go to his friends and receive care.

nkjv@Acts:27:4 @ When we had put to sea from there, we sailed under the shelter of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

nkjv@Acts:27:6 @ There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing to Italy, and he put us on board.

nkjv@Acts:27:7 @ When we had sailed slowly many days, and arrived with difficulty off Cnidus, the wind not permitting us to proceed, we sailed under the shelter of Crete off Salmone.

nkjv@Acts:27:10 @ saying, "Men, I perceive that this voyage will end with disaster and much loss, not only of the cargo and ship, but also our lives."

nkjv@Acts:27:11 @ Nevertheless the centurion was more persuaded by the helmsman and the owner of the ship than by the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:27:14 @ But not long after, a tempestuous head wind arose, called Euroclydon.

nkjv@Acts:27:17 @ When they had taken it on board, they used cables to undergird the ship; and fearing lest they should run aground on the Syrtis Sands, they struck sail and so were driven.

nkjv@Acts:27:19 @ On the third day we threw the ship's tackle overboard with our own hands.

nkjv@Acts:27:20 @ Now when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest beat on us, all hope that we would be saved was finally given up.

nkjv@Acts:27:21 @ But after long abstinence from food, then Paul stood in the midst of them and said, "Men, you should have listened to me, and not have sailed from Crete and incurred this disaster and loss.

nkjv@Acts:27:22 @ And now I urge you to take heart, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

nkjv@Acts:27:23 @ For there stood by me this night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve,

nkjv@Acts:27:26 @ However, we must run aground on a certain island."

nkjv@Acts:27:28 @ And they took soundings and found it to be twenty fathoms; and when they had gone a little farther, they took soundings again and found it to be fifteen fathoms.

nkjv@Acts:27:29 @ Then, fearing lest we should run aground on the rocks, they dropped four anchors from the stern, and prayed for day to come.

nkjv@Acts:27:31 @ Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, "Unless these men stay in the ship, you cannot be saved."

nkjv@Acts:27:33 @ And as day was about to dawn, Paul implored them all to take food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day you have waited and continued without food, and eaten nothing.

nkjv@Acts:27:37 @ And in all we were two hundred and seventy-six persons on the ship.

nkjv@Acts:27:39 @ When it was day, they did not recognize the land; but they observed a bay with a beach, onto which they planned to run the ship if possible.

nkjv@Acts:27:42 @ And the soldiers' plan was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim away and escape.

nkjv@Acts:27:43 @ But the centurion, wanting to save Paul, kept them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should jump overboard first and get to land,

nkjv@Acts:27:44 @ and the rest, some on boards and some on parts of the ship. And so it was that they all escaped safely to land.

nkjv@Acts:28:3 @ But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

nkjv@Acts:28:4 @ So when the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet justice does not allow to live."

nkjv@Acts:28:6 @ However, they were expecting that he would swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had looked for a long time and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

nkjv@Acts:28:7 @ In that region there was an estate of the leading citizen of the island, whose name was Publius, who received us and entertained us courteously for three days.

nkjv@Acts:28:8 @ And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and dysentery. Paul went in to him and prayed, and he laid his hands on him and healed him.

nkjv@Acts:28:9 @ So when this was done, the rest of those on the island who had diseases also came and were healed.

nkjv@Acts:28:10 @ They also honored us in many ways; and when we departed, they provided such things as were necessary.

nkjv@Acts:28:11 @ After three months we sailed in an Alexandrian ship whose figurehead was the Twin Brothers, which had wintered at the island.

nkjv@Acts:28:13 @ From there we circled round and reached Rhegium. And after one day the south wind blew; and the next day we came to Puteoli,

nkjv@Acts:28:16 @ Now when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

nkjv@Acts:28:17 @ And it came to pass after three days that Paul called the leaders of the Jews together. So when they had come together, he said to them: "Men and brethren, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

nkjv@Acts:28:19 @ But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything of which to accuse my nation.

nkjv@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."

nkjv@Acts:28:21 @ Then they said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren who came reported or spoken any evil of you.

nkjv@Acts:28:22 @ But we desire to hear from you what you think; for concerning this sect, we know that it is spoken against everywhere."

nkjv@Acts:28:23 @ So when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, to whom he explained and solemnly testified of the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning till evening.

nkjv@Acts:28:25 @ So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

nkjv@Acts:28:28 @ "Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it!"

nkjv@Acts:28:29 @ And when he had said these words, the Jews departed and had a great dispute among themselves.

nkjv@Romans:1:13 @ Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but was hindered until now), that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles.

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

nkjv@Romans:1:20 @ For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

nkjv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

nkjv@Romans:1:26 @ For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.

nkjv@Romans:1:27 @ Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, 1men with 1men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

nkjv@Romans:1:32 @ who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

nkjv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.

nkjv@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

nkjv@Romans:2:5 @ But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

nkjv@Romans:2:17 @ Indeed you are called a Jew, and rest on the law, and make your boast in God,

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

nkjv@Romans:2:23 @ You who make your boast in the law, do you dishonor God through breaking the law?

nkjv@Romans:2:24 @ For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," as it is written.

nkjv@Romans:2:25 @ For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

nkjv@Romans:2:26 @ Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision?

nkjv@Romans:2:27 @ And will not the physically uncircumcised, if he fulfills the law, judge you who, even with your written code and circumcision, are a transgressor of the law?

nkjv@Romans:2:28 @ For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh;

nkjv@Romans:2:29 @ but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.

nkjv@Romans:3:1 @ What advantage then has the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision?

nkjv@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust who inflicts wrath? (I speak as a man.)

nkjv@Romans:3:8 @ And why not say, "Let us do evil that good may come"?--as we are slanderously reported and as some affirm that we say. Their condemnation is just.

nkjv@Romans:3:10 @ As it is written: "There is none righteous, no, not one;

nkjv@Romans:3:11 @ There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God.

nkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one."

nkjv@Romans:3:13 @ "Their throat is an open tomb; With their tongues they have practiced deceit"; "The poison of asps is under their lips";

nkjv@Romans:3:16 @ Destruction and misery are in their ways;

nkjv@Romans:3:22 @ even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference;

nkjv@Romans:3:24 @ being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

nkjv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,

nkjv@Romans:3:26 @ to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

nkjv@Romans:3:28 @ Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.

nkjv@Romans:3:29 @ Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also,

nkjv@Romans:3:30 @ since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.

nkjv@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.

nkjv@Romans:4:5 @ But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,

nkjv@Romans:4:9 @ Does this blessedness then come upon the circumcised only, or upon the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while still uncircumcised, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they are uncircumcised, that righteousness might be imputed to them also,

nkjv@Romans:4:12 @ and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while still uncircumcised.

nkjv@Romans:4:15 @ because the law brings about wrath; for where there is no law there is no transgression.

nkjv@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, 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

nkjv@Romans:4:17 @ (as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations" ) in the presence of Him whom he believed--God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;

nkjv@Romans:4:18 @ who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, "So shall your descendants be."

nkjv@Romans:4:19 @ And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah's womb.

nkjv@Romans:4:21 @ and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform.

nkjv@Romans:4:23 @ Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him,

nkjv@Romans:4:25 @ who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification.

nkjv@Romans:5:3 @ And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;

nkjv@Romans:5:7 @ For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.

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

nkjv@Romans:5:10 @ For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

nkjv@Romans:5:11 @ And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

nkjv@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned--

nkjv@Romans:5:14 @ Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.

nkjv@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man's offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

nkjv@Romans:5:16 @ And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification.

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

nkjv@Romans:5:18 @ Therefore, as through one man's offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man's righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.

nkjv@Romans:5:19 @ For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man's obedience many will be made righteous.

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

nkjv@Romans:6:2 @ Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?

nkjv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,

nkjv@Romans:6:6 @ knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.

nkjv@Romans:6:9 @ knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him.

nkjv@Romans:6:10 @ For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.

nkjv@Romans:6:11 @ Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

nkjv@Romans:6:14 @ For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.

nkjv@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

nkjv@Romans:7:1 @ Or do you not know, brethren (for I speak to those who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives?

nkjv@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 of her husband.

nkjv@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death.

nkjv@Romans:7:7 @ What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, "You shall not covet."

nkjv@Romans:7:9 @ I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

nkjv@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.

nkjv@Romans:7:17 @ But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

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

nkjv@Romans:7:21 @ I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good.

nkjv@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh,

nkjv@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, the things of the Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.

nkjv@Romans:8:14 @ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."

nkjv@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 in us.

nkjv@Romans:8:19 @ For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;

nkjv@Romans:8:21 @ because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.

nkjv@Romans:8:23 @ Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.

nkjv@Romans:8:24 @ For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?

nkjv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

nkjv@Romans:8:27 @ Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

nkjv@Romans:8:34 @ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

nkjv@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

nkjv@Romans:8:36 @ As it is written: "For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."

nkjv@Romans:8:37 @ Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

nkjv@Romans:9:1 @ I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Romans:9:2 @ that I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart.

nkjv@Romans:9:4 @ who are Israelites, to whom pertain the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises;

nkjv@Romans:9:9 @ For this is the word of promise: "At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son."

nkjv@Romans:9:10 @ And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac

nkjv@Romans:9:11 @ (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls),

nkjv@Romans:9:15 @ For He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion."

nkjv@Romans:9:18 @ Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.

nkjv@Romans:9:21 @ Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

nkjv@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,

nkjv@Romans:9:23 @ and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory,

nkjv@Romans:9:24 @ even us whom He called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

nkjv@Romans:9:26 @ "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, "You are not My people,' There they shall be called sons of the living God."

nkjv@Romans:9:27 @ Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be saved.

nkjv@Romans:9:28 @ For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth."

nkjv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone.

nkjv@Romans:9:33 @ As it is written: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

nkjv@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

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

nkjv@Romans:10:10 @ For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

nkjv@Romans:10:11 @ For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

nkjv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

nkjv@Romans:10:13 @ For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

nkjv@Romans:10:14 @ How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

nkjv@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed: "Their sound has gone out to all the earth, And their words to the ends of the world."

nkjv@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, I will move you to anger by a foolish nation."

nkjv@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says: "All day long I have stretched out My hands To a disobedient and contrary people."

nkjv@Romans:11:3 @ "LORD, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life"?

nkjv@Romans:11:4 @ But what does the divine response say to him? "I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal."

nkjv@Romans:11:5 @ Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

nkjv@Romans:11:6 @ And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

nkjv@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Romans:11:15 @ For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?

nkjv@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,

nkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

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

nkjv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

nkjv@Romans:11:25 @ For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

nkjv@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

nkjv@Romans:11:28 @ Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.

nkjv@Romans:11:30 @ For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience,

nkjv@Romans:11:32 @ For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.

nkjv@Romans:12:1 @ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

nkjv@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 is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

nkjv@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

nkjv@Romans:12:4 @ For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function,

nkjv@Romans:12:5 @ so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.

nkjv@Romans:12:18 @ If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.

nkjv@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head."

nkjv@Romans:13:4 @ For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.

nkjv@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience' sake.

nkjv@Romans:13:6 @ For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God's ministers attending continually to this very thing.

nkjv@Romans:13:8 @ Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.

nkjv@Romans:13:11 @ And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.

nkjv@Romans:13:12 @ The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

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

nkjv@Romans:14:1 @ Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things.

nkjv@Romans:14:2 @ For one believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.

nkjv@Romans:14:5 @ One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind.

nkjv@Romans:14:7 @ For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.

nkjv@Romans:14:10 @ But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

nkjv@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."

nkjv@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother's way.

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

nkjv@Romans:14:15 @ Yet if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.

nkjv@Romans:14:19 @ Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.

nkjv@Romans:14:22 @ Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves.

nkjv@Romans:14:23 @ But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.

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

nkjv@Romans:15:2 @ Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification.

nkjv@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me."

nkjv@Romans:15:5 @ Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus,

nkjv@Romans:16:26 @ but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith--

nkjv@Romans:16:27 @ to God, alone wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.

nkjv@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 who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:8 @ who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:25 @ Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption--

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:6 @ However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:8 @ which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:15 @ But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not carnal?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:5 @ Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:8 @ Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:11 @ For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:12 @ Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:13 @ each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If anyone's work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If anyone's work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:21 @ Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours:

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:1 @ Let a man so consider us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:2 @ Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each one's praise will come from God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up on behalf of one against the other.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last, as men condemned to death; for we have been made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are distinguished, but we are dishonored!

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles--that a man has his father's wife!

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:5 @ deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:10 @ Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:13 @ But those who are outside God judges. Therefore "put away from yourselves the evil person."

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Now therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you go to law against one another. Why do you not rather accept wrong? Why do you not rather let yourselves be cheated?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:8 @ No, you yourselves do wrong and cheat, and you do these things to your brethren!

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:10 @ nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For "the two," He says, "shall become one flesh."

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

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:6 @ But I say this as a concession, not as a commandment.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk. And so I ordain in all the churches.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:18 @ Was anyone called while circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Was anyone called while uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:19 @ Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning virgins: I have no commandment from the Lord; yet I give judgment as one whom the Lord in His mercy has made trustworthy.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:29 @ But this I say, brethren, the time is short, so that from now on even those who have wives should be as though they had none,

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:35 @ And this I say for your own profit, not that I may put a leash on you, but for what is proper, and that you may serve the Lord without distraction.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is at liberty to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:2 @ And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:3 @ But if anyone loves God, this one is known by Him.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords),

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:6 @ yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, there is not in everyone that knowledge; for some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things offered to idols?

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:12 @ But when you thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the law of Moses, "You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain." Is it oxen God is concerned about?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for it would be better for me to die than that anyone should make my boasting void.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:25 @ And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:26 @ Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:16 @ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:17 @ For we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake of that one bread.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:21 @ You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord's table and of the table of demons.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:22 @ Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:24 @ Let no one seek his own, but each one the other's well-being.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no questions for conscience' sake;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any of those who do not believe invites you to dinner, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; for "the earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness."

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ "Conscience," I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience?

nkjv@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.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

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

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now in giving these instructions I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better but for the worse.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must also be factions among you, that those who are approved may be recognized among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Therefore when you come together in one place, it is not to eat the Lord's Supper.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating, each one takes his own supper ahead of others; and one is hungry and another is drunk.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread;

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:30 @ For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I will set in order when I come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant:

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For in fact the body is not one member but many.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:19 @ And if they were all one member, where would the body be?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:10 @ But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Even things without life, whether flute or harp, when they make a sound, unless they make a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is piped or played?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So likewise you, unless you utter by the tongue words easy to understand, how will it be known what is spoken? For you will be speaking into the air.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all;

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ yet in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may teach others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written: "With men of other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me," says the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophesying is not for unbelievers but for those who believe.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:25 @ And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

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

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Or did the word of God come originally from you? Or was it you only that it reached?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:38 @ But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:39 @ Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:40 @ Let all things be done decently and in order.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ After that He was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:8 @ Then last of all He was seen by me also, as by one born out of due time.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ's at His coming.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:28 @ Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But someone will say, "How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?"

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:36 @ Foolish one, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:41 @ There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:47 @ The first man was of the earth, 1made of dust; the second Man is the Lord from heaven.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, so you must do also:

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia (for I am passing through Macedonia).

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ And it may be that I will remain, or even spend the winter with you, that you may send me on my journey, wherever I go.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not wish to see you now on the way; but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brethren, but he was quite unwilling to come at this time; however, he will come when he has a convenient time.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:14 @ Let all that you do be done with love.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:16 @ that you also submit to such, and to everyone who works and labors with us.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I am glad about the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, for what was lacking on your part they supplied.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:20 @ All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:21 @ The salutation with my own hand--Paul's.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:22 @ If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come!

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:5 @ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:7 @ And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ you also helping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the gift granted to us through many.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I intended to come to you before, that you might have a second benefit--

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:16 @ to pass by way of you to Macedonia, to come again from Macedonia to you, and be helped by you on my way to Judea.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us--by me, Silvanus, and Timothy--was not Yes and No, but in Him was Yes.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we have dominion over your faith, but are fellow workers for your joy; for by faith you stand.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I make you sorrowful, then who is he who makes me glad but the one who is made sorrowful by me?

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote this very thing to you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow over those from whom I ought to have joy, having confidence in you all that my joy is the joy of you all.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me, but all of you to some extent--not to be too severe.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so that, on the contrary, you ought rather to forgive and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with too much sorrow.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:10 @ Now whom you forgive anything, I also forgive. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I departed for Macedonia.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:16 @ To the one we are the aroma of death leading to death, and to the other the aroma of life leading to life. And who is sufficient for these things?

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as some others, epistles of commendation to you or letters of commendation from you?

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:3 @ clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away,

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, the ministry of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:15 @ But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:16 @ Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:4 @ whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:5 @ For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus' sake.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:8 @ We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory,

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:6 @ So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ For we do not commend ourselves again to you, but give you opportunity to boast on our behalf, that you may have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died;

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:15 @ and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:16 @ Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:18 @ Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:20 @ Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you." Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:5 @ in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:6 @ by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:7 @ by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:8 @ by honor and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true;

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:18 @ "I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty."

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Open your hearts to us. We have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have cheated no one.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I am exceedingly joyful in all our tribulation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For indeed, when we came to Macedonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were troubled on every side. Outside were conflicts, inside were fears.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming, but also by the consolation 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 even more.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it; though I did regret it. For I perceive that the same epistle made you sorry, though only for a while.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For observe this very thing, that you sorrowed in a godly manner: What diligence it produced in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what vehement desire, what zeal, what vindication! In all things you proved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Therefore, although I wrote to you, I did not do it for the sake of him who had done the wrong, nor for the sake of him who suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear to you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his affections are greater for you as he remembers the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling you received him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:16 @ Therefore I rejoice that I have confidence in you in everything.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:1 @ Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia:

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded in the riches of their liberality.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For I bear witness that according to their ability, yes, and beyond their ability, they were freely willing,

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And not only as we had hoped, but they first gave themselves to the Lord, and then to us by the will of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this I give advice: It is to your advantage not only to be doing what you began and were desiring to do a year ago;

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ but now you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he not only accepted the exhortation, but being more diligent, he went to you of his own accord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but who was also chosen by the churches to travel with us with this gift, which is administered by us to the glory of the Lord Himself and to show your ready mind,

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:20 @ avoiding this: that anyone should blame us in this lavish gift which is administered by us--

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:21 @ providing honorable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, because of the great confidence which we have in you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If anyone inquires about Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker concerning you. Or if our brethren are inquired about, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Therefore show to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love and of our boasting on your behalf.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Now concerning the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you;

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know your willingness, about which I boast of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has stirred up the majority.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ lest if some Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we (not to mention you!) should be ashamed of this confident boasting.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go to you ahead of time, and prepare your generous gift beforehand, which you had previously promised, that it may be ready as a matter of generosity and not as a grudging obligation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:7 @ So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the administration of this service not only supplies the needs of the saints, but also is abounding through many thanksgivings to God,

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ while, through the proof of this ministry, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal sharing with them and all men,

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:14 @ and by their prayer for you, who long for you because of the exceeding grace of God in you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I, Paul, myself am pleading with you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--who in presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:4 @ For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Do you look at things according to the outward appearance? If anyone is convinced in himself that he is Christ's, let him again consider this in himself, that just as he is Christ's, even so we are Christ's.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I should boast somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord gave us for edification and not for your destruction, I shall not be ashamed--

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:10 @ "For his letters," they say, "are weighty and powerful, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible."

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such we will also be in deed when we are present.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appointed us--a sphere which especially includes you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ not boasting of things beyond measure, that is, in other men's labors, but having hope, that as your faith is increased, we shall be greatly enlarged by you in our sphere,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:16 @ to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's sphere of accomplishment.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:5 @ For I consider that I am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:6 @ Even though I am untrained in speech, yet I am not in knowledge. But we have been thoroughly manifested among you in all things.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was present with you, and in need, I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:14 @ And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, let no one think me a fool. If otherwise, at least receive me as a fool, that I also may boast a little.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:17 @ What I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as it were, foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you put up with it if one brings you into bondage, if one devours you, if one takes from you, if one exalts himself, if one strikes you on the face.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To our shame I say that we were too weak for that! But in whatever anyone is bold--I speak foolishly--I am bold also.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they ministers of Christ?--I speak as a fool--I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:24 @ From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:28 @ besides the other things, what comes upon me daily: my deep concern for all the churches.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:29 @ Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:30 @ If I must boast, I will boast in the things which concern my infirmity.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, was guarding the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desiring to arrest me;

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:1 @ It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord:

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago--whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows--such a one was caught up to the third heaven.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:5 @ Of such a one I will boast; yet of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ For though I might desire to boast, I will not be a fool; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, lest anyone should think of me above what he sees me to be or hears from me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.

nkjv@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 I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ Truly the signs of an apostle were accomplished among you with all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For what is it in which you were inferior to other churches, except that I myself was not burdensome to you? Forgive me this wrong!

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Again, do you think that we excuse ourselves to you? We speak before God in Christ. But we do all things, beloved, for your edification.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found by you such as you do not wish; lest there be contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, backbitings, whisperings, conceits, tumults;

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and I shall mourn for many who have sinned before and have not repented of the uncleanness, fornication, and lewdness which they have practiced.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have told you before, and foretell as if I were present the second time, and now being absent I write to those who have sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare--

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:7 @ Now I pray to God that you do no evil, not that we should appear approved, but that you should do what is honorable, though we may seem disqualified.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:9 @ For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. And this also we pray, that you may be made complete.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the authority which the Lord has given me for edification and not for destruction.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:12 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss.

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

nkjv@Galatians:1:6 @ I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel,

nkjv@Galatians:1:9 @ As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.

nkjv@Galatians:1:10 @ For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God beyond measure and tried to destroy it.

nkjv@Galatians:1:14 @ And I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries in my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

nkjv@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,

nkjv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.

nkjv@Galatians:1:20 @ (Now concerning the things which I write to you, indeed, before God, I do not lie.)

nkjv@Galatians:1:21 @ Afterward I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

nkjv@Galatians:1:23 @ But they were hearing only, "He who formerly persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy."

nkjv@Galatians:2:2 @ And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain.

nkjv@Galatians:2:4 @ And this occurred because of false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage),

nkjv@Galatians:2:5 @ to whom we did not yield submission even for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

nkjv@Galatians:2:6 @ But from those who seemed to be something--whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no man--for those who seemed to be something added nothing to me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:7 @ But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel for the uncircumcised had been committed to me, as the gospel for the circumcised was to Peter

nkjv@Galatians:2:10 @ They desired only that we should remember the poor, the very thing which I also was eager to do.

nkjv@Galatians:2:12 @ for before certain men came from James, he would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

nkjv@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

nkjv@Galatians:3:1 @ O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified?

nkjv@Galatians:3:2 @ This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

nkjv@Galatians:3:5 @ Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?--

nkjv@Galatians:3:7 @ Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham.

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

nkjv@Galatians:3:10 @ For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them."

nkjv@Galatians:3:11 @ But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for "the just shall live by faith."

nkjv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree" ),

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

nkjv@Galatians:3:15 @ Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man's covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it.

nkjv@Galatians:3:16 @ Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, "And to seeds," as of many, but as of one, "And to your Seed," who is Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:3:17 @ And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, that it should make the promise of no effect.

nkjv@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

nkjv@Galatians:3:19 @ What purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was appointed through angels by the hand of a mediator.

nkjv@Galatians:3:20 @ Now a mediator does not mediate for one only, but God is one.

nkjv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

nkjv@Galatians:3:25 @ But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

nkjv@Galatians:3:26 @ For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

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

nkjv@Galatians:3:28 @ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@Galatians:4:1 @ Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,

nkjv@Galatians:4:3 @ Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.

nkjv@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

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

nkjv@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!"

nkjv@Galatians:4:7 @ Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:4:9 @ But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?

nkjv@Galatians:4:10 @ You observe days and months and seasons and years.

nkjv@Galatians:4:18 @ But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you.

nkjv@Galatians:4:20 @ I would like to be present with you now and to change my tone; for I have doubts about you.

nkjv@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman.

nkjv@Galatians:4:23 @ But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise,

nkjv@Galatians:4:24 @ which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar--

nkjv@Galatians:4:25 @ for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children--

nkjv@Galatians:4:30 @ Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman."

nkjv@Galatians:4:31 @ So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.

nkjv@Galatians:5:1 @ Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

nkjv@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.

nkjv@Galatians:5:8 @ This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you.

nkjv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.

nkjv@Galatians:5:11 @ And I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why do I still suffer persecution? Then the offense of the cross has ceased.

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

nkjv@Galatians:5:14 @ For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

nkjv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!

nkjv@Galatians:5:17 @ For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.

nkjv@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,

nkjv@Galatians:5:20 @ idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,

nkjv@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

nkjv@Galatians:5:23 @ gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

nkjv@Galatians:5:24 @ And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

nkjv@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

nkjv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.

nkjv@Galatians:6:2 @ Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:6:3 @ For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

nkjv@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

nkjv@Galatians:6:5 @ For each one shall bear his own load.

nkjv@Galatians:6:8 @ For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

nkjv@Galatians:6:9 @ And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

nkjv@Galatians:6:12 @ As many as desire to make a good showing in the flesh, these would compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:6:15 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.

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

nkjv@Galatians:6:17 @ From now on let no one trouble me, for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

nkjv@Ephesians:1:4 @ just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:5 @ having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:7 @ In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace

nkjv@Ephesians:1:10 @ that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth--in Him.

nkjv@Ephesians:1:13 @ In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:14 @ who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.

nkjv@Ephesians:1:16 @ do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:

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

nkjv@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:3 @ among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:9 @ not of works, lest anyone should boast.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh--who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands--

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

nkjv@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:14 @ For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:15 @ having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:16 @ and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:2:19 @ Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:20 @ having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:1 @ For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles--

nkjv@Ephesians:3:2 @ if indeed you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:3 @ how that by revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I have briefly written already,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets:

nkjv@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:12 @ in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him.

nkjv@Ephesians:3:13 @ Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

nkjv@Ephesians:3:14 @ For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@Ephesians:3:21 @ to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:1 @ I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:3 @ endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:4:5 @ one Lord, one faith, one baptism;

nkjv@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:7 @ But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore He says: "When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men."

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

nkjv@Ephesians:4:13 @ till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;

nkjv@Ephesians:4:14 @ that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:17 @ This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:22 @ that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:24 @ and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore, putting away lying, "Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor," for we are members of one another.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:26 @ "Be angry, and do not sin": do not let the sun go down on your wrath,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints;

nkjv@Ephesians:5:5 @ For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:8 @ For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light

nkjv@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:18 @ And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,

nkjv@Ephesians:5:19 @ speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

nkjv@Ephesians:5:21 @ submitting to one another in the fear of God.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:30 @ For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:5:32 @ This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:33 @ Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

nkjv@Ephesians:6:2 @ "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with promise:

nkjv@Ephesians:6:3 @ "that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth."

nkjv@Ephesians:6:4 @ And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.

nkjv@Ephesians:6:5 @ Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ;

nkjv@Ephesians:6:6 @ not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,

nkjv@Ephesians:6:8 @ knowing that whatever good anyone does, he will receive the same from the Lord, whether he is a slave or free.

nkjv@Ephesians:6:10 @ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

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

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

nkjv@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

nkjv@Ephesians:6:15 @ and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

nkjv@Ephesians:6:16 @ above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

nkjv@Ephesians:6:17 @ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;

nkjv@Ephesians:6:18 @ praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints--

nkjv@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, bondservants of Jesus Christ, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

nkjv@Philippians:1:3 @ I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

nkjv@Philippians:1:6 @ being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

nkjv@Philippians:1:7 @ just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace.

nkjv@Philippians:1:8 @ For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Philippians:1:14 @ and most of the brethren in the Lord, having become confident by my chains, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

nkjv@Philippians:1:16 @ The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains;

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

nkjv@Philippians:1:20 @ according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.

nkjv@Philippians:1:22 @ But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell.

nkjv@Philippians:1:25 @ And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith,

nkjv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel,

nkjv@Philippians:1:28 @ and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which is to them a proof of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that from God.

nkjv@Philippians:1:29 @ For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake,

nkjv@Philippians:1:30 @ having the same conflict which you saw in me and now hear is in me.

nkjv@Philippians:2:1 @ Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy,

nkjv@Philippians:2:2 @ fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

nkjv@Philippians:2:3 @ Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.

nkjv@Philippians:2:4 @ Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.

nkjv@Philippians:2:6 @ who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,

nkjv@Philippians:2:7 @ but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.

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

nkjv@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

nkjv@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

nkjv@Philippians:2:17 @ Yes, and if I am being poured out as a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.

nkjv@Philippians:2:18 @ For the same reason you also be glad and rejoice with me.

nkjv@Philippians:2:20 @ For I have no one like-minded, who will sincerely care for your state.

nkjv@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know his proven character, that as a son with his father he served with me in the gospel.

nkjv@Philippians:2:23 @ Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it goes with me.

nkjv@Philippians:3:13 @ Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead,

nkjv@Philippians:3:19 @ whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame--who set their mind on earthly things.

nkjv@Philippians:3:21 @ who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.

nkjv@Philippians:4:14 @ Nevertheless you have done well that you shared in my distress.

nkjv@Philippians:4:15 @ Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only.

nkjv@Colossians:2:8 @ Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.

nkjv@Colossians:2:11 @ In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ,

nkjv@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses,

nkjv@Colossians:2:14 @ having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.

nkjv@Colossians:2:16 @ So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths,

nkjv@Colossians:2:18 @ Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

nkjv@Colossians:2:20 @ Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations--

nkjv@Colossians:2:22 @ which all concern things which perish with the using--according to the commandments and doctrines of men?

nkjv@Colossians:2:23 @ These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.

nkjv@Colossians:3:2 @ Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

nkjv@Colossians:3:5 @ Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

nkjv@Colossians:3:6 @ Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience,

nkjv@Colossians:3:7 @ in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them.

nkjv@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds,

nkjv@Colossians:3:10 @ and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him,

nkjv@Colossians:3:12 @ Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering;

nkjv@Colossians:3:13 @ bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.

nkjv@Colossians:3:14 @ But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.

nkjv@Colossians:3:15 @ And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

nkjv@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

nkjv@Colossians:3:22 @ Bondservants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, fearing God.

nkjv@Colossians:3:25 @ But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and there is no partiality.

nkjv@Colossians:4:1 @ Masters, give your bondservants what is just and fair, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

nkjv@Colossians:4:2 @ Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving;

nkjv@Colossians:4:6 @ Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

nkjv@Colossians:4:9 @ with Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you all things which are happening here.

nkjv@Colossians:4:10 @ Aristarchus my fellow prisoner greets you, with Mark the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions: if he comes to you, welcome him),

nkjv@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; they have proved to be a comfort to me.

nkjv@Colossians:4:12 @ Epaphras, who is one of you, a bondservant of Christ, greets you, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

nkjv@Colossians:4:16 @ Now when this epistle is read among you, see that it is read also in the church of the Laodiceans, and that you likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.

nkjv@Colossians:4:18 @ This salutation by my own hand--Paul. Remember my chains. Grace be with you. Amen.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ knowing, beloved brethren, your election by God.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became followers of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ so that you became examples to all in Macedonia and Achaia who believe.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For from you the word of the Lord has sounded forth, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place. Your faith toward God has gone out, so that we do not need to say anything.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves declare concerning us what manner of entry we had to you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brethren, that our coming to you was not in vain.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ But even after we had suffered before and were spitefully treated at Philippi, as you know, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God in much conflict.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our exhortation did not come from error or uncleanness, nor was it in deceit.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God who tests our hearts.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither at any time did we use flattering words, as you know, nor a cloak for covetousness--God is witness.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor did we seek glory from men, either from you or from others, when we might have made demands as apostles of Christ.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we were gentle among you, just as a nursing mother cherishes her own children.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God, but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us.

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

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and God also, how devoutly and justly and blamelessly we behaved ourselves among you who believe;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ as you know how we exhorted, and comforted, and charged every one of you, as a father does his own children,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ that you would walk worthy of God who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, just as they did from the Judeans,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they do not please God and are contrary to all men,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, so as always to fill up the measure of their sins; but wrath has come upon them to the uttermost.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, having been taken away from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavored more eagerly to see your face with great desire.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ Therefore we wanted to come to you--even I, Paul, time and again--but Satan hindered us.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:20 @ For you are our glory and joy.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore, when we could no longer endure it, we thought it good to be left in Athens alone,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God, and our fellow laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you and encourage you concerning your faith,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ that no one should be shaken by these afflictions; for you yourselves know that we are appointed to this.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For, in fact, we told you before when we were with you that we would suffer tribulation, just as it happened, and you know.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could no longer endure it, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor might be in vain.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and brought us good news of your faith and love, and that you always have good remembrance of us, greatly desiring to see us, as we also to see you--

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ therefore, brethren, in all our affliction and distress we were comforted concerning you by your faith.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanks can we render to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sake before our God,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face and perfect what is lacking in your faith?

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now may our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way to you.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ And may the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another and to all, just as we do to you,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ Finally then, brethren, we urge and exhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ for you know what commandments we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

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

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ that no one should take advantage of and defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also forewarned you and testified.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in holiness.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given us His Holy Spirit.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But concerning brotherly love you have no need that I should write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ and indeed you do so toward all the brethren who are in all Macedonia. But we urge you, brethren, that you increase more and more;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.

nkjv@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 will by no means precede those who are asleep.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.

nkjv@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 thus we shall always be with the Lord.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:18 @ Therefore comfort one another with these words.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ For when they say, "Peace and safety!" then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:7 @ For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ And we urge you, brethren, to recognize those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ and to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the weak, be patient with all.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:16 @ Rejoice always,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ pray without ceasing,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:18 @ in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:19 @ Do not quench the Spirit.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:20 @ Do not despise prophecies.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:21 @ Test all things; hold fast what is good.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:22 @ Abstain from every form of evil.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:25 @ Brethren, pray for us.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:26 @ Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read to all the holy brethren.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each other,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ so that we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer;

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when He comes, in that Day, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power,

nkjv@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.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things?

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:11 @ And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ to which He called you by our gospel, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or our epistle.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we have confidence in the Lord concerning you, both that you do and will do the things we command you.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ Now may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received from us.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us, for we were not disorderly among you;

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ nor did we eat anyone's bread free of charge, but worked with labor and toil night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ not because we do not have authority, but to make ourselves an example of how you should follow us.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:13 @ But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ And if anyone does not obey our word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:15 @ Yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with you all.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ The salutation of Paul with my own hand, which is a sign in every epistle; so I write.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, a true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I urged you when I went into Macedonia--remain in Ephesus that you may charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:4 @ nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:5 @ Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:8 @ But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:9 @ knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:10 @ for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:16 @ However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:17 @ Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:18 @ This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:19 @ having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:1 @ Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:5 @ For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:9 @ in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:11 @ Let a woman learn in silence with all submission.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:14 @ And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:15 @ Nevertheless she will be saved in childbearing if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:1 @ This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:2 @ A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;

nkjv@1Timothy:3:3 @ not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous;

nkjv@1Timothy:3:4 @ one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence

nkjv@1Timothy:3:6 @ not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:7 @ Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:8 @ Likewise deacons must be reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for money,

nkjv@1Timothy:3:9 @ holding the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:10 @ But let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:12 @ Let deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:13 @ For those who have served well as deacons obtain for themselves a good standing and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:15 @ but if I am delayed, I write so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

nkjv@1Timothy:3:16 @ And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,

nkjv@1Timothy:4:2 @ speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,

nkjv@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:13 @ Till I come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:15 @ Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all.

nkjv@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:3 @ Honor widows who are really widows.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:5 @ Now she who is really a widow, and left alone, trusts in God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:8 @ But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:9 @ Do not let a widow under sixty years old be taken into the number, and not unless she has been the wife of one man,

nkjv@1Timothy:5:11 @ But refuse the younger widows; for when they have begun to grow wanton against Christ, they desire to marry,

nkjv@1Timothy:5:12 @ having condemnation because they have cast off their first faith.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:13 @ And besides they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house, and not only idle but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:17 @ Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:19 @ Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from two or three witnesses.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:22 @ Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in other people's sins; keep yourself pure.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for your stomach's sake and your frequent infirmities.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:1 @ Let as many bondservants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and His doctrine may not be blasphemed.

nkjv@Philemon:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Philemon:1:5 @ hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,

nkjv@Philemon:1:6 @ that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.

nkjv@Philemon:1:7 @ For we have great joy and consolation in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed by you, brother.

nkjv@Philemon:1:8 @ Therefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to command you what is fitting,

nkjv@Philemon:1:9 @ yet for love's sake I rather appeal to you--being such a one as Paul, the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ--

nkjv@Philemon:1:10 @ I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten while in my chains,

nkjv@Philemon:1:11 @ who once was unprofitable to you, but now is profitable to you and to me.

nkjv@Philemon:1:12 @ I am sending him back. You therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,

nkjv@Philemon:1:13 @ whom I wished to keep with me, that on your behalf he might minister to me in my chains for the gospel.

nkjv@Philemon:1:14 @ But without your consent I wanted to do nothing, that your good deed might not be by compulsion, as it were, but voluntary.

nkjv@Philemon:1:15 @ For perhaps he departed for a while for this purpose, that you might receive him forever,

nkjv@Philemon:1:16 @ no longer as a slave but more than a slave--a beloved brother, especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

nkjv@Philemon:1:17 @ If then you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me.

nkjv@Philemon:1:18 @ But if he has wronged you or owes anything, put that on my account.

nkjv@Philemon:1:19 @ I, Paul, am writing with my own hand. I will repay--not to mention to you that you owe me even your own self besides.

nkjv@Philemon:1:20 @ Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Lord.

nkjv@Philemon:1:21 @ Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say.

nkjv@Philemon:1:22 @ But, meanwhile, also prepare a guest room for me, for I trust that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.

nkjv@Philemon:1:23 @ Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,

nkjv@Hebrews:1:2 @ has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;

nkjv@Hebrews:1:3 @ who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

nkjv@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels did He ever say: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You"? And again: "I will be to Him a Father, And He shall be to Me a Son"?

nkjv@Hebrews:1:8 @ But to the Son He says: "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.

nkjv@Hebrews:1:9 @ You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions."

nkjv@Hebrews:1:10 @ And: "You, LORD, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

nkjv@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?

nkjv@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just reward,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:4 @ God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?

nkjv@Hebrews:2:5 @ For He has not put the world to come, of which we speak, in subjection to angels.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:6 @ But one testified in a certain place, saying: "What is man that You are mindful of him, Or the son of man that You take care of him?

nkjv@Hebrews:2:7 @ You have made him a little lower than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, And set him over the works of Your hands.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:8 @ You have put all things in subjection under his feet." For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not yet see all things put under him.

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

nkjv@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:15 @ and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

nkjv@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 propitiation for the sins of the people.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus,

nkjv@Hebrews:3:3 @ For this One has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as He who built the house has more honor than the house.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:4 @ For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses indeed was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward,

nkjv@Hebrews:3:6 @ but Christ as a Son over His own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:8 @ Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, In the day of trial in the wilderness,

nkjv@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was angry with that generation, And said, "They always go astray in their heart, And they have not known My ways.'

nkjv@Hebrews:3:13 @ but exhort one another daily, while it is called "Today," lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end,

nkjv@Hebrews:3:15 @ while it is said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

nkjv@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believed do enter that rest, as He has said: "So I swore in My wrath, "They shall not enter My rest,"' although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:4 @ For He has spoken in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: "And God rested on the seventh day from all His works";

nkjv@Hebrews:4:7 @ again He designates a certain day, saying in David, "Today," after such a long time, as it has been said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts."

nkjv@Hebrews:4:11 @ Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:14 @ Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest taken from among men is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:2 @ He can have compassion on those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to weakness.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:4 @ And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called by God, just as Aaron was.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become High Priest, but it was He who said to Him: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You."

nkjv@Hebrews:5:7 @ who, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His godly fear,

nkjv@Hebrews:5:8 @ though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:9 @ And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him,

nkjv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:13 @ For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:2 @ of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:6 @ if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:7 @ For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God;

nkjv@Hebrews:6:9 @ But, beloved, we are confident of better things concerning you, yes, things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this manner.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:13 @ For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:16 @ For men indeed swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation is for them an end of all dispute.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:17 @ Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:18 @ that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:3 @ without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now consider how great this man was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And indeed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham;

nkjv@Hebrews:7:7 @ Now beyond all contradiction the lesser is blessed by the better.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?

nkjv@Hebrews:7:13 @ For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no man has officiated at the altar.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord arose from Judah, of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:18 @ For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness,

nkjv@Hebrews:7:19 @ for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:23 @ Also there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:24 @ But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:25 @ Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:27 @ who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people's, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfected forever.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:1 @ Now this is the main point of the things we are saying: We have such a High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

nkjv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this One also have something to offer.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:4 @ For if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law;

nkjv@Hebrews:8:5 @ who serve the copy and shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He said, "See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain."

nkjv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises.

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

nkjv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not according to 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; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them, says the LORD.

nkjv@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 in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:11 @ None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, "Know the LORD,' for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:3 @ and behind the second veil, the part of the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of All,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:4 @ which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which were the golden pot that had the manna, Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:7 @ But into the second part the high priest went alone once a year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the people's sins committed in ignorance;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:9 @ It was symbolic for the present time in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot make him who performed the service perfect in regard to the conscience--

nkjv@Hebrews:9:10 @ concerned only with foods and drinks, various washings, and fleshly ordinances imposed until the time of reformation.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:12 @ Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

nkjv@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:22 @ And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:26 @ He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:2 @ For then would they not have ceased to be offered? For the worshipers, once purified, would have had no more consciousness of sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:9 @ then He said, "Behold, I have come to do Your will, O God." He takes away the first that He may establish the second.

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

nkjv@Hebrews:10:12 @ But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:18 @ Now where there is remission of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:24 @ And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works,

nkjv@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.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:27 @ but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:28 @ Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

nkjv@Hebrews:10:33 @ partly while you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while you became companions of those who were so treated;

nkjv@Hebrews:10:34 @ for you had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your goods, knowing that you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves in heaven.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise:

nkjv@Hebrews:10:38 @ Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him."

nkjv@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:2 @ For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, "and was not found, because God had taken him"; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:10 @ for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:12 @ Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born as many as the stars of the sky in multitude--innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:19 @ concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead, from which he also received him in a figurative sense.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden three months by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king's command.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah, also of David and Samuel and the prophets:

nkjv@Hebrews:11:33 @ who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:34 @ quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead raised to life again. Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:36 @ Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented--

nkjv@Hebrews:11:39 @ And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise,

nkjv@Hebrews:12:2 @ looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:3 @ For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:5 @ And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: "My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;

nkjv@Hebrews:12:6 @ For whom the LORD loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives."

nkjv@Hebrews:12:7 @ If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?

nkjv@Hebrews:12:8 @ But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:9 @ Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

nkjv@Hebrews:12:14 @ Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

nkjv@Hebrews:12:15 @ looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled;

nkjv@Hebrews:12:16 @ lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:26 @ whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, "Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven."

nkjv@Hebrews:12:27 @ Now this, "Yet once more," indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:29 @ For our God is a consuming fire.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:1 @ Let brotherly love continue.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember the prisoners as if chained with them--those who are mistreated--since you yourselves are in the body also.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:4 @ Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:5 @ Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

nkjv@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember those who rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct.

nkjv@James:1:9 @ Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation,

nkjv@James:1:10 @ but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he will pass away.

nkjv@James:1:11 @ For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits.

nkjv@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

nkjv@James:1:13 @ Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.

nkjv@James:1:14 @ But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.

nkjv@James:1:15 @ Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

nkjv@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.

nkjv@James:1:22 @ But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

nkjv@James:1:23 @ For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;

nkjv@James:1:25 @ But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

nkjv@James:1:26 @ If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless.

nkjv@James:1:27 @ Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

nkjv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, "You sit here in a good place," and say to the poor man, "You stand there," or, "Sit here at my footstool,"

nkjv@James:2:4 @ have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

nkjv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you into the courts?

nkjv@James:2:9 @ but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

nkjv@James:2:10 @ For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.

nkjv@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

nkjv@James:2:14 @ What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?

nkjv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warmed and filled," but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?

nkjv@James:2:18 @ But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

nkjv@James:2:19 @ You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe--and tremble!

nkjv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?

nkjv@James:2:24 @ You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

nkjv@James:3:2 @ For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.

nkjv@James:3:5 @ Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles!

nkjv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.

nkjv@James:3:8 @ But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

nkjv@James:3:13 @ Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.

nkjv@James:3:15 @ This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic.

nkjv@James:3:16 @ For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.

nkjv@James:4:1 @ Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members?

nkjv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.

nkjv@James:4:11 @ Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

nkjv@James:4:12 @ There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?

nkjv@James:5:1 @ Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you!

nkjv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days.

nkjv@James:5:5 @ You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter.

nkjv@James:5:6 @ You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.

nkjv@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!

nkjv@James:5:11 @ Indeed we count them blessed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord--that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.

nkjv@James:5:13 @ Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms.

nkjv@James:5:14 @ Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

nkjv@James:5:16 @ Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

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

nkjv@James:5:19 @ Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back,

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

nkjv@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

nkjv@1Peter:1:14 @ as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance;

nkjv@1Peter:1:20 @ He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you

nkjv@1Peter:1:22 @ Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart,

nkjv@1Peter:2:4 @ Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious,

nkjv@1Peter:2:5 @ you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame."

nkjv@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone,"

nkjv@1Peter:2:8 @ and "A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense." They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed.

nkjv@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

nkjv@1Peter:2:10 @ who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.

nkjv@1Peter:3:3 @ Do not let your adornment be merely outward--arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel--

nkjv@1Peter:3:4 @ rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.

nkjv@1Peter:3:7 @ Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.

nkjv@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous;

nkjv@1Peter:3:9 @ not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.

nkjv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.

nkjv@1Peter:5:7 @ casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

nkjv@1Peter:5:8 @ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

nkjv@1Peter:5:11 @ To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silvanus, our faithful brother as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.

nkjv@1Peter:5:13 @ She who is in Babylon, elect together with you, greets you; and so does Mark my son.

nkjv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nkjv@2Peter:1:4 @ by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

nkjv@2Peter:1:13 @ Yes, I think it is right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,

nkjv@2Peter:1:17 @ For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

nkjv@2Peter:2:18 @ For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error.

nkjv@2Peter:2:19 @ While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage.

nkjv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning.

nkjv@2Peter:3:1 @ Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder),

nkjv@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation."

nkjv@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

nkjv@2Peter:3:8 @ But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

nkjv@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

nkjv@2Peter:3:11 @ Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,

nkjv@2Peter:3:12 @ looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

nkjv@2Peter:3:15 @ and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation--as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,

nkjv@2Peter:3:16 @ as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.

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

nkjv@1John:1:3 @ that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1John:1:7 @ But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@1John:2:1 @ My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

nkjv@1John:2:2 @ And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@1John:2:15 @ Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

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

nkjv@1John:2:20 @ But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

nkjv@1John:2:22 @ Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.

nkjv@1John:2:23 @ Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

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

nkjv@1John:2:26 @ These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you.

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

nkjv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

nkjv@1John:2:29 @ If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him.

nkjv@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

nkjv@1John:3:3 @ And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.

nkjv@1John:3:7 @ Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.

nkjv@1John:3:8 @ He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

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

nkjv@1John:3:12 @ not as Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother's righteous.

nkjv@1John:3:18 @ My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

nkjv@1John:3:20 @ For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.

nkjv@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God.

nkjv@1John:3:23 @ And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

nkjv@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

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

nkjv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

nkjv@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

nkjv@1John:4:9 @ In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.

nkjv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

nkjv@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

nkjv@1John:4:12 @ No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

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

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

nkjv@1John:4:17 @ Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.

nkjv@1John:4:20 @ If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

nkjv@1John:5:1 @ Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him.

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

nkjv@1John:5:6 @ This is He who came by water and blood--Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.

nkjv@1John:5:7 @ For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.

nkjv@1John:5:8 @ And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

nkjv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son.

nkjv@1John:5:10 @ He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son.

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

nkjv@1John:5:12 @ He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

nkjv@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, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

nkjv@1John:5:14 @ Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

nkjv@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.

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

nkjv@1John:5:18 @ We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.

nkjv@1John:5:19 @ We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.

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

nkjv@2John:1:1 @ The Elder, To the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those who have known the truth,

nkjv@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

nkjv@2John:1:5 @ And now I plead with you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another.

nkjv@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

nkjv@2John:1:9 @ Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son.

nkjv@2John:1:10 @ If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him;

nkjv@3John:1:6 @ who have borne witness of your love before the church. If you send them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God, you will do well,

nkjv@3John:1:9 @ I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to have the preeminence among them, does not receive us.

nkjv@3John:1:10 @ Therefore, if I come, I will call to mind his deeds which he does, prating against us with malicious words. And not content with that, he himself does not receive the brethren, and forbids those who wish to, putting them out of the church.

nkjv@3John:1:12 @ Demetrius has a good testimony from all, and from the truth itself. And we also bear witness, and you know that our testimony is true.

nkjv@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, To those who are called, sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ:

nkjv@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

nkjv@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Jude:1:5 @ But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.

nkjv@Jude:1:7 @ as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

nkjv@Jude:1:9 @ Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"

nkjv@Jude:1:11 @ Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah.

nkjv@Jude:1:12 @ These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots;

nkjv@Jude:1:15 @ to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."

nkjv@Jude:1:19 @ These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.

nkjv@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Jude:1:22 @ And on some have compassion, making a distinction;

nkjv@Jude:1:25 @ To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

nkjv@Revelation:1:1 @ The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants--things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John,
